kindle fire HD 7 and google store apps not downloading - 7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
i have the above and wonted to install the google play store using Amazon-Fire-5th-Gen-Install-Play-Store ? all went well i rebooted no problem all apps working as they should
however once at the google play store no apps will download you just get an error so in reality this Amazon-Fire-5th-Gen-Install-Play-Store batch file either does not work or i have made a error at some point ? or probably the best solution is to get rid of this kindle fire HD 7 and get a proper android tablet ?
thank you in advance for any help here

[Q] Unable To Install Apps Via Google Play Store

Hi all,
I've rooted my Kindle Fire 7" HD but I'm unable to install any apps via the Google Play Store. SuperSU has been install successfully & I've also upgraded it to v1.3. Root Checker Basic confirms that I do indeed have root permissions. I followed the tutorials posted by @prokennexusa & the app loads up fine. But when I attempt to install anything, the Play store closes. When I attempt to reopen it, it will close straight away. I have to clear the app's data before I can load it up again.
I had done this previously on a different Kindle & all was fine so it's probably me missing a step. Anyone got any ideas on what that missing step might have been? I'm running v4.1.10 of the Play Store. Is this the latest?
Cheers for any tips you can give me,
Lee
Make sure you're using the right GAPPS for your OS. I recommend flashing Kinology ROM, as it includes GAPPS and SuperSU. It's just stock with extra features, so it works really well.

[Q] Appstore broken

Okay i have ****ed up my kindle pretty badly. After successfully rooting my kindle fire hd & 7" (2013 version), i decided to try to install google play on it to replace the amazon appstore. Anyway i downloaded a group of files and ran them while my kindle was in fastboot mode, but the google app store did not install, and now the amazon appstore will not download any apps. Has anyone encountered this problem before, if so, how did you fix it? Also if anyone has successfully installed the google appstore please give me a link to the files if you can. I'm not actually that sure of what to do with the files so any basic instructions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

[Q] Best way to set up Google Store on Kindle FHD7?

Hi All,
Sorry for being a n00b here... I have a Kindle Fire HD 7, with Sytem Version 7.5.1. I'd like to install the Google Play Store. I should be able to, right? I used the SuperSU tool that roots your device. I had installed Google Store and thought it was working. Then when I tried to install an app from the store, App Store crashed. Now if I try to install the app store apk it just crashes over and over... Not sure if it's relevant, but since then I've done a factory reset on the Kindle. I was glad to see that SuperSU seems to have survived the reset. Anyway, the first question is, where is the best place to get the app store APK file? I don't remember where I got it last time, but I remember not being sure if it was the latest version. What is the latest version. And more importantly, how do I make it run on my Kindle? Many thanks for any ideas. -steve

update Google services fire 7 5th generation

my wife's tablet stopped working and I have a old fire 7 5th generation that my kids stopped using when they got a new tablet this Christmas. I remember than when I bought I followed some tutorial and removed the adds, installed a custom launcher the play store and root the service. l
Today when I wanted to add my wife's Google account I kept getting a login error and was not able to register the account into the device. I Google the error and it seems it might be because the tablet has an old Google play services, account manager, etc.
So my question is, can I safely download the latest apk from https://www.androidpolice.com/2020/06/09/install-play-store-amazon-fire-tablet/?amp
install them old on top of the ones already install, or will I break the play store, etc?
thanks for the help

Backup your valuable files to your SD card before you reset your Fire tablet to factory defaults and re-install all Googe services (Framework and Account Manager are same on Android version like 5.1.1).
Want to unlock and root (Ford is for Fire 7 2015 and Austin is for Fire 7 2017, follow the steps carefully)

Hi thanks for the reply.
I actually went ahead a installed the new versions of the apps in top of the old ones and it worked. I am able to add a new google account the tablet.
Any way if I actually go ahead and do the factory reset, do you do it from within the fire 7 OS?
Thanks for your help.

Updating old kindle

found this old kindle recently, Kindle Fire HD 7 2nd Gen, and i remember I had previously done some work with rooting and flashing but I'm not sure what I had done with it. I cant access the bootloader via buttons on startup so I may have broken something but it boots up and can browse the web and download apps from the amazon app store. I seem to have attemted to get the play store but either failed or it stopped working over time.
whats the best way to move forward with updating it? can I just flash a new rom?
