How to remove pre-installed apps and bloatware from Amazon Fire 7

The Amazon Fire 7 (also known as Tablet Fire 7) is a fairly modest 7-inch tablet whose main attraction is its low price. In an age when tablets are not particularly fashionable, being able to get a tablet for less than 70 euros is an option that not many overlook.

What is the problem, then? Bloatware, PUAs, and Integrated Ads that the device comes standard. Can they be uninstalled? Of course!

How to Uninstall Factory Pre-Installed Apps and Bloatware from Amazon Fire 7

In order to eliminate the factory applications that the Fire 7 brings, we will need a PC and a few ADB commands (Android Debug Bridge). These commands allow us to establish communication with any Android device and make certain modifications.

Note for the savvy: OK, here Amazon uses its own operating system (not Android). But the thing is, the ADB commands do work with this Fire 7, so that's the method we'll use.

If you have never heard of ADB commands, I recommend you take a look at the Basic guide to ADB commands for Android Yet the ADB driver download and installation guide for Windows.

These are the ADB commands that we must use to "clean" our tablet

Once we have the ADB drivers correctly installed on our PC - if not, the system will not recognize the orders that we are going to launch next - the first thing we have to do is connect the tablet to the computer.

Next, we will open a command window in ms-dos (In Windows we can do it by typing the command "cmd" from "Start -> Run"Or by typing"Symbol of the system”In Cortana).

Before we start writing commands like crazy, we will write the command adb devices to make sure the PC recognizes the device.

Now that we have everything in order, we will launch the following series of commands, one by one:

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.amazon.parentalcontrols

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.android.calendar

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.amazon.photos

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.amazon.kindle

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.android.email

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.android.music

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.goodreads.kindle

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.amazon.kindle.personal_video

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.amazon.geo.client.maps

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.amazon.cloud9.systembrowserprovider

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.amazon.cloud9

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.amazon.csapp

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.amazon.weather

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.amazon.ags.app

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.amazon.h2settingsfortablet

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.android.contacts

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 amazon.alexa.tablet

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.amazon.kindle.kso

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.audible.application.kindle

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.amazon.mp3

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.amazon.tahoe

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.amazon.photos.importer

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.amazon.zico

adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.amazon.dee.app

With every command adb shell pm uninstall what we do is uninstall the application that we indicate in each of the lines. For example, launching the command adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.amazon.weather We will uninstall the weather application that comes standard on the Fire 7.

Uninstalling all the bloatware from the Amazon Fire 7 hit with a small script

I am more in favor of uninstalling all applications one by one, command by command. In any case, if we want to speed up the process, we can also copy all the commands into a TXT text file and change the extension to “.bat”.

Once this is done, we just have to run the batch or file that we just created so that all orders are executed at once, one after another. You can create this file yourself or download it directly from HERE.
