So I rooted and unlocked the boot loader on my 4K Firestick. I flashed the predicted mantis zip along with the aftv magisk modules. I have no Amazon AppStore. It says AppStore but when I click it, it is just apps I’ve already downloaded previously. There’s no way to search for new apps. How do I get this back? I’ve reflashed the rom and that didn’t change anything. Do I need to do a factory reset and reflash the mantis predicted rom?

This module replaces the launcher and disables some stock apps, like the appshop, isn't it?
What happens if you disable that module in the magisk manager and reboot?
Let me give it a shot and see what happens

Update broke Market and all of my third-party keyboards (pretty much everything I had to manually put in system/app. Root, however, was not broken.
For good measure, though, I reverted to stock and re-rooted. Re-installed Market and G-Apps framework. No cigar. Market and keyboards are still broken and FC on launch.

Did you use Titanium Backup to convert Market and Keyboards to system apps? Alternatively move them (from /data) into /system/app and set the appropriate permissions/ownership.

Since the update, I'm getting constant force closes from market when installing apps/opening market. Worked before. Anyone got an idea?
I uninstalled and removed vending.apk from system/apps, I reinstalled it, ensured permissions were solid. Clear data/cache just to be safe.
SuperOneClick/ZergRush confirmed working over here as a re-root method. Market and G-apps confirmed working after re-install, fixing permissions (via root explorer for me) and restarting.

Only lack of root.
I'm was wandering if anyone knows of a way to get Google Play on my Kindle Fire without root?
I don't want to root because I sent in for the warrenty once, so it would be a big help. I'm not new to the tech game so don't to me like I don't know what I'm doing plz.

You cannot run Google Play without root permissions because it will only run as a system app with the proper permissions which you need root to modify. As far as warranty goes, you can restore a rooted kindle fire to stock and remove any proof of the fact that it has ever been rooted by following one of the guides to return to stock.
I used to have my KF completely bricked after running ICS and different ROMs on it and so forth and recently sent it back to Amazon for ghosting. After having restored it to stock and doing a factory reset, it couldn't be differentiated from one that was brand new out of the box.
Thanks but I still think there's got to be a way to mod Google play because I have 1 mobile and it works flawlessly, so I guess ill try to mod it

No, there is not a way to do it without root permission. You have to have root access to move to system/apk and change permissions.

I appreciate your drive and willingness to try but the reason it won't work is because even if you were to find a way to get the app to run without being run from system/app you will still not be able to use it to install apps. The way it was designed to integrate with android is to contact google's servers and directly install the app to your device using its own permissions derived from it being a system app. If it doesn't have those permissions it won't know what to do and will crash. It cannot just download the app to a folder like 1mobile does. I understand that you want to use google play without rooting, I tried to do it too before I eventually gave in and rooted, but trust me you will be much happier with the device when you have root permissions. If you decide to stay with the stock amazon version of android I would recommend trying modaco's rooted stock ROM which comes with google play already installed, it will not only save you the trouble of having to attempt to install the app yourself (which is actually more of a hassle than you would think) but it also has better stability than stock does and you don't have to worry about amazon upgrading you overnight without your permission and you losing root.

I rooted my Kindlle Fire, got it to Jelly Bean, and I can install everything just fine. Netflix works great, youtube, everything.
But every time I try to install the Amazon Appstore it just says "App not installed"
Every time I try to install the Kindle App it gives me an error code "-24" that Google has never seen before
Any idea what I could do to fix this? All I really need is the Kindle App so I can read my books again
Are you trying to install the apps from the Play Store ? I installed them from Play Store & had no issues.

Yeah I tried that, didn't work.
I tried sideloading the Amazon Apps for Android too and that didn't work either.

Yeah, I may try restoring it to stock and starting over tonight when I get home from work to see if that'll do it because, as of right now, I can't figure out why the Amazon appstore won't work as well as the individual Amazon apps
Do a full wipe minus your SD card reflash ROM reflash gapps reboot enjoy

I got a used Kindle Fire, but it has a parental control app on it preventing me from doing ANYTHING. So at this point I don't even know if I am rooted and can't even get into settings. So how do I boot into recovery and factory reset from there, like I said I don't think I am rooted but can't tell either.

Try to use KFU to root and install TWRP. Once In TWRP goto wipe and wipe data. That should remove the app.

Does anyone know of a valid method to bypass the snapchat root restriction? People say that this can be done if you rooted with magisk, but my boot img was patched by magisk and Im using the "hide" feature, yet neither seem to help. Unfortunately I don't have a backup either, so TB can't help me here... Maybe I ****ed up somewhere (this is my first experience with rooting), but do you guys know of ways to bypass the snap login error without a backup? Thanks in advance <3
EDIT: SOLVED IN COMMENTS
I'm using snapchat and I'm rooted. I'm not sure but you may have done something wrong. Did you try uninstalling and reinstalling snapchat?
and what kernel are you using? I'm using the Flash Kernel.
That's odd, I've never had a problem with Snapchat login on my 2 XL, stock rom +( EX kernel) + Magisk or Nitrogen OS + Magisk.

Hello again. I tried logging out and logging in again. It was fine for me. Are you sure you have the latest snapchat? And that you are entering the right login details?
for all that are not aware if you do not have a TB backup of you being logged into snapchat you will need to completely unroot in order to log back in. on the pixel it is easy. just flash the stock rom without wiping (remove the -w in the flash-all.bat) let it reboot after flashing, log into snapchat then root your device. make a tb backup after that in order to not have to do this again
You don't have to unroot
If you using magisk just hide magisk manager and select snapchat
You only have to uninstall XPosed in order to log in that's all
