LineageOS for the Echo Show 8 (2nd Gen), Kiosk Satellite Edition 2026.11.2
This release fixes the install on a Show that ran R0rt1z2's LineageOS image before. If your Show stopped at the fastboot screen after installing 2026.11.1, this is the release to install. It requires Kiosk Satellite 2026.11.16 or newer.
Changes
- The image boots on a Show coming from R0rt1z2's LineageOS image (#47). After installing 2026.11.1 on such a Show, it stopped at the fastboot screen. R0rt1z2's image puts its own files on the vendor partition, where the hardware drivers are. 2026.11.1 did not write that partition. The image now brings its own vendor partition.
- Every Show runs the same hardware drivers. Before, the image used whatever Fire OS version the Show was unlocked from. Now each Show gets the vendor files the image is tested with.
If your Show is stuck at the fastboot screen
Unplug its power, hold Volume Up and plug the power back in. Keep holding until TWRP shows. Then install this release with the steps in the Echo Show 8 (2nd gen) guide.
Updating
Install it from the Show's Firmware entity in Home Assistant or from Kiosk Satellite's remote admin. EchoService downloads it, checks it and restarts the Show into TWRP, which installs it and starts Android again. Kiosk Satellite and its settings stay. If your Show cannot get online yet, install this release by hand from TWRP with the steps in the Echo Show 8 (2nd gen) guide, leaving out twrp wipe data.
To move a Show from R0rt1z2's image and keep your Kiosk Satellite settings, see Moving from R0rt1z2's image.
Requirements
The Show needs R0rt1z2's saiyaku unlock with TWRP 3.7.0_9-0. See Unlocking. An install or an update writes the system, boot and vendor partitions. The recovery with TWRP and the bootloader are never touched.
Kiosk Satellite needs to be 2026.11.16 or newer, the first version with the Show's base gain.
