Amazon Fire table with Fire OS: Custom boot, transfer HTML

In Progress Posted 6 years ago Paid on delivery

We are looking to provide for our end user an Android table that has a custom boot to a menu, possibly to load a default page in the built in web browser. I myself can handle the development of the HTML to display, however I am not skilled enough to program/modify an Android Fire table to perform the custom boot.

We are looking for a "plug & click" solution, that is.. it is desirable to have a system to which the table could be plugged up via USB (to a Windows 7 64 bit host), "click on an application" (which you provide) to modify/program the table to the desired condition (custom boot).

We are open to suggestions on how best to accomplish this task.

About the HTML:

I am an experienced HTML "programmer", the code I will generate will be basically a simple "website" on the table, no WiFi/LTE will be needed.

The default page will be the intro and menu, which will transport to the desired page. This page will include any combination of text, PDF documents and/or MP4 video to watch which is embedded in the HTML page (Thinking the use of JWPlayer or similar, prefer freeware, I am also open to suggestions on this detail).

In addition to the custom boot, please be prepared to offer a simple solution to transfer the HTML and supporting files (PDF, TXT, MP4, JWPlayer, Etc) to the table since it appears that the ability to connect as media storage is no longer supported.

The end goal is to be able to purchase in multiples the identical device (Amazon Fire), "click & play" the custom boot update and transfer a subdirectory to the table which contains the HTML and supporting files. We will want to have the flexibility to modify and add content to the HTML & supporting files whenever we wish.

I look forward to recommendations and discussion on this project.

Project outline updated 4/21/2017


For the app: I am visioning something that is maybe a blend
of two apps… “SureLock & HTML5 Browser.”

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gears42.surelock&hl=en



I am thinking, the app you provide will function such as this:

“When the customer powers up the tablet, it goes directly to
the app. In the app, an HTML5 browser is embedded.
The only buttons that function are volume and power.”



Exit code could be something like “tap home button 5
times” to bring up a password entry box in order to
exit the “kiosk browser” app, if updates or changes
needs to be conducted.

The browser/locking app would of course install in a
directory on the device. It would also create an
empty directory named HTML. When the app runs
it will load default.htm/index.htm (either, no
preference). All navigation will be provided within
the HTML, so there is no need for any buttons or
address bar in the app, only the browser area.

We want maximum screen to be occupied by the
browser. We will be doing all the branding within
the HTML so none is desired in the app.
(We have changed logos 3 times and slogan
twice in the last year, reflecting the organization’s
expansion)

I presume in Android development, there is the
option to drag & drop a browser component
onto an application project. Additionally, there
would be no need for error trapping regarding
the presence or validation of HTML code/files…
I will test this fully before transferring to the
tablet.

The solution needed would be an APK that I would
install on the tablet and then transfer my
HTML and supporting files to the tablet…
and be done.

I do not want to register anything, configure
anything, download any updates or supporting files.
Connecting to Google Play/Chrome App store/Etc,
is not an option.

By the way, “Silk Browser” (HTML5 supported)
is already installed on the Android Fire.
(I am not seeing Chrome on the unit)
