Amazon Fire TV Custom Recovery
Note:
This page has not been updated since before Fire OS 5 was released. I’m planning to overhaul this page in the near future with information on the newer updates.
Custom Recovery replaces the software on the Amazon Fire TV that handles updates and factory resets. Installing a custom recovery allows you to, among other things, install custom ROMs which are not created by Amazon. For instructions, see my guide on how to install a custom recovery.
