Today, Amazon has rolled out a new firmware package targeted at some of its Fire HD devices, namely build 5.7.0 , which includes general improvements and performance enhancements.

In addition to that, the present update also optimizes the device’s display settings to conserve power and increase the battery life (the mode automatically turns off when your Fire is charging).

Now, to be clear about the compatible devices, Amazon has provided firmware 32.5.7.0 for its 5th Generation Fire HD 8 and Fire HD 10 units, as well as version 49.5.7.0 targeted at the Fire HD 8 6th Generation device.

In terms of installation, check your tablet’s currently installed firmware version and make sure the software revision powering the device isn’t either newer or matching this present release. For that, go to Menu > Settings > System Updates and you should see the current build.

Now, if all is OK, save the appropriate downloadable .bin file for your tablet, copy it into the device’s internal storage, and monitor the transfer to make sure no problems are encountered.

Afterward, simply go to Menu > Settings > System Updates (path might differ from a model to another) and follow all instructions displayed on-screen for a complete and successful installation.

Therefore, from the links below, follow the one that best describes your device model name, apply the new firmware on it, and constantly check our website to stay “updated one minute ago.”
