I have rooted via manualnooter
nook version 1.3
The market (v2.3.6)will not open. The screen flashes and it closes.
Gmail app will not open. The screen flashes and it closes.
Google talk does the same thing.
In the logCat file there are lots of entries for "Failed to find provider info for com.google.settings". I'm not sure if that is related, but it seems like it might be.
I'm thinking there is something wrong my google account. Does anyone have an idea on what I can do. I've been searching, but I'm coming up empty.
Thank you!!
Did you fix permissions after rooting?

Of course when I finally decide to post I find the answer. Apparently the 1.3 update messed it up. This thread had the answer. I had rerun the manualnooter files, but I needed to login to the market between the two versions.

Thank you.
I know we are still waiting on a potential root update for the 5.1.1 firmware, which is how my black friday fire was shipped, unfortunately. However, I have sideloaded google play and google frameworks successfully (I think) via rootjunky's zip. The problem is, I cannot update google play services (Fire tells me it is out of date) without logging into the Play store, but I cannot log into the play store. Whenever I put in my credentials, I get an error that says "There was a problem communicating with Google Servers, please try again later".
If I cant update the framework through Play, or log into play at all, I'm pretty sunk. I have noticed some people referencing the ability to use the Play store on 5.1.1. so somebody must have gotten in successfully. Anybody have any ideas on how to fix, or get this error and find a solution?

sideload this apk. this is the latest play services for our device. it's signed so it should install right over the old version.

Well they solved the problem elsewhere but left this thread hanging

New to this and looking for clarification
I just received my Fire today which promptly upgraded itself to 5.1.1. All I want to do right now is install Google Play Store. I've downloaded the GAPPS file linked below (8.4.89), but now I'm hoping for a link for the RootJunky sideloader to complete the process. I'm a super newbie, so any instructions past just a simple link would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Solved

Thanks for the link! Probably what I was looking for, however, issue was solved by running the batch file in the rootjunky ADB zip a second time which probably gave me the same result.

If you haven't found your solution yet, here is the rootjunky link: http://rootjunkysdl.com/?device=Amazon Fire 5th gen
You download and extract the amazon fire 5th gen zip to a folder, connect your fire (make sure to have the necessary device/adb drivers installed), and follow the promps. FYI I had to run it twice to get Play to work properly, but I'm all set up now, don't even need root really (Although, a replacement launcher would be nice, I think the fire home launcher is a piece of crap).
The ad-removal didn't work with the Rootjunky script, but a separate ADB command got rid of them.

Install the drivers from Amazon here https://developer.amazon.com/appsan...etting-up-your-kindle-fire-tablet-for-testing
On tablet
We need to enable Developer Options
Go to Settings>Device Options>Tap on Serial Numbers seven times it'll say "You are now Developer"
This puts new category underneath Serial Number, Developer options so go into that
Toggle Enable ADB to the on position
Then plug the tablet in to pc
Then visit the thread here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/amazon-fire/general/installing-google-framework-playstore-t3216122
Download the file in one, and unzip it.
Ignore it's drivers (many seem to have had difficulties with them) and you won't get any joy from the parts of the Batch file that block ads or updates, they won't do any harm, but they won't do anything well at all really so don't worry about them.
run 1-Install-Play-Store.bat
You can check the drivers you have installed work as it loads up, if it has you'll see your serial number on the left of the screen
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
List of devices attached
Gxxxserialxnumberxxxxxxxx device
If it shows, all well and good, run option 2 on menu screen and should be good to go.
It'll say it's blocked the ads, it hasn't.
Thank you guys. Can't believe how easy that was. One thing though - I downloaded the newer GAPPS file, but then the batch file never asked me for its location and therefore installed the default older one. It seems to work perfectly, and asked me to update Play Services first thing, which I suppose gave me the exact same result.
I appreciate the help very much.
I had same problem and used an apk. Loader got google play services and games but when I went to login to google play it just says checking info. I let it run for hours and nothing. It's been a week. No option of plugging into a PC please help I am up for any fresh ideas

Try this thread.
i have read and read but cant seem to find it. i am trying to install google on my new fire tablet. i see that root is not needed and i have tried a few tools.
first tool was Amazon-Fire-5th-Gen-Install-Play-Store, says all installed but nothing.
then i tried AmazonFire5thGenSuperTool, get the following error [install_failed_Version_downgrade_]
i have manually gotten services framework, google accoount manager, and google store installed, but cant seem to find the correct google play services.
i have registered the device and it has children profiles on it, not sure if that matters. i am very new to the kindle. my first one
thanX in advance.
going to reset device as i just got it today.
ok so i got it to work. had to do a factory reset.
So my understanding is that once the device is registered, then the ads are reinstalled or the "special offers" are back on home screen.?
is this correct?

Hi folks, I cant install an updated version of an apk on my fire hd8 2018. Always comes up not installed. I did manage to Install a beta version but it's too buggy. Trying to save the apps data too. About a year ago i side loaded playstore etc. Seems that amazon os update messed things up. I've used the amazon fire toolbox etc to try to help. This tool won't update google framework either. Wallpaper won't stay on nova launcher either. I'm at a loss. Could anyone please help as I'm at my wits end. Really just need this one apk to work. Thanks

Try it to reset your Fire tablet, bypass Amazon account registration (Do not register) and re-install Google API services from Fire toolbox

thanks for the reply i tried the option in that link but no help. If i can make it clear for you so i rooted my phone and after rooting netflix is having problems playing anything. I do not get any error's like other people instead i can login and see everything but when i try to play something it just gets stuck on "loading" and never actually loads
for anyone having the same problems as me i found a fix. Go into Magisk and go to downloads and scroll to the bottom and download Liboemcrypto disabler and reboot phone
Another way is using a root explorer go to system/vendor/lib then find liboemcrypto.so and change it to .bak at the end and save. The magisk module probably does the same thing.
Don't those root privileges get lost after each power cycle?
