Full system install
The idea
Section titled “The idea”A deterministic build script that you run against your own copy of the Fire OS update file. It removes the evidenced bloat from the system image, bakes Glass in as a system app, and produces a flashable zip. No Amazon files are redistributed: the project publishes scripts and lists only.
It stays Android on Fire OS underneath, so Prime Video, Alexa and DRM keep working.
Requirements (planned)
Section titled “Requirements (planned)”- A stick with an unlocked bootloader and a custom recovery already installed.
- Your own OTA file for the exact build the script allows.
- Full partition backups, checked on both sides, before the first write.
Safety rules the project holds itself to
Section titled “Safety rules the project holds itself to”- Never write the bootloader, preloader, trustzone or vbmeta partitions. Only system, vendor and product images are ever flashed.
- Back up before writing, and rehearse the restore first.
- Three independent ways back: from Android with root, from recovery, and from the bootloader’s serial handshake.
The rooted install ships first and is the tested spec for this one.
