Crazy Question. Is possible to install the firetv OS over an Android TV install?

by Arzemna

Ok. I know. This is crazy. I figure with firetv essentially being Android it might be possible. I have a Hisense 55” with android tv and I really don’t like it. It was best picture quality vs the firetv native TVs at the time.

I personally really like firetv but wanted to avoid a second device (which essentially runs the Android tv in hdmi input mode by default)

My ideal would just be to install firetv onto this Android tv.

I know the answer is probably a No but thought I’d ask as this seems like if any group would know it’s here

As a note: no need to debate the Android vs firetv as an OS. :-)

You actually like that mess of an OS that is Fire OS?

Not happening....

plug in a firetv stick to the tv hdmi port and make that default on startup
