How To Install Lineage OS On Amazon Fire HD 8 Tablet

*** This ONLY works on the Fire HD 8 2018 8th Gen***

This is a video tutorial to show you how to install Lineage OS onto an Amazon Fire HD! Benjamin, an awesome Hardware Addict sent in an email to the podcast letting us know about it being possible to use an Amazon Fire tablet with Lineage OS. This instantly piqued Wendy's interest so she decided to wipe Fire OS from her tablets and in the process, she recorded a how to video to share the process with everyone.

I think this probably one of the most considerate and professional guides to something like this I have seen.
When looking in to putting Lineage on my Razer Phone 2 or Nintendo Switch, I cannot tell you how many times I heard please subscribe, seen affiliate links or ad links to everything they mentioned, or the person talking about it went completely off topic to talk about something else, which I don't really have an issue with, it's their platform, it's their video, power to them.
But I really appreciate with this guide, you're just to the point and elaborate, and have direct links. I admire that very much, and I hope this channel takes off soon.

Side note: The more I listen to this video, you kinda sound like a Canadian version of Stevie from Good Mythical Morning? Idk, maybe just me lol

I tried this install 8 different ways and ultimately this video was the saving grace. Thank you for walking us through it. FTR Lineage OS 17 is crashing my system UI so I ended up just flashing everything you did (Lineage 16, Gapps v9, etc) and all is well.

Excellent video! Now I have a Fire HD 8 (2018) here with the OS version already at 7.1.3.7. From the little I found at XDA developers I fear the unlock & flash TWRP step doesn't work with it anymore. Is there any more information about this anywhere?

[taylorv]

Does it feel faster or over time the memory and cpu of the fire hd 8 slows down the OS?

[osexperiments]

Where do I get the modified version of LineageOS 16.0? Can't find it in the links you provided
