How to Use a Custom Launcher With Widgets on Amazon Fire OS
Amazon Fire OS devices force you to use their launcher, but there's a non-root way of setting up a custom launcher with widget support!
Amazon's Fire OS, aside from having an Android backbone, can be considered quite a different beast from stock Android or even heavy skins like MIUI or Samsung Experience. They aimed to make their own OS based on the open source Android platform while remaining completely independent of all Google Play Services and certifications, instead favoring their own Amazon services. But it's still based on Android, so tech savvy users have been able to take the Fire OS platform and customize it to their will. Today, we are going to teach you how you can easily set up any launcher you want (with widget support) on Amazon Fire OS Devices, with no root required! You just need, as most tutorials we do, access to the Android Debug Bridge.

TK is back to show you how to use Google Assistant on any Android tablet running Lollipop, Marshmallow, or Nougat without needing root!
TK is at it again with another useful tip, this time it's getting the Google Assistant to work on Android Lollipop. The kicker - no root is required for this setup. Even though it still has a few improvements to sort out, it has definitely come a long way since its initial release. The only issue we still find is that it's not available on most devices. Luckily apps like Nova and Action Launcher now make this possible. All credits go to XDA Member Nikhilkumar038, so we now have a way to use Google Assistant on any Android tablet running Lollipop, Marshmallow, or Nougat without needing root!
