LineageOS for the Echo Show 8 (1st Gen), Kiosk Satellite Edition 2026.10.5
This release keeps the Show rejoining a Wi-Fi network without Internet access, such as a VLAN that only reaches Home Assistant.
Fixes
- The Echo stopped rejoining a Wi-Fi network without Internet access (kiosk-satellite#1009). When a network the Echo was connected to by hand failed Android's Internet check, Android turned auto-join off for that network for good, while the Echo stayed connected. After the next restart or Wi-Fi drop the Echo never rejoined, which hit Echos on a VLAN that only reaches Home Assistant. Android now keeps auto-join on for such a network. A network a previous release disabled this way is enabled again when the update starts. This fix applies to every Echo.
Changes
- The Echo Show 8 guides cover macOS and a failed Kiosk Satellite download (#28). Unlocking says R0rt1z2's package does not run on macOS as shipped and links a workaround on the XDA thread, says to keep the Show off Wi-Fi until it is unlocked and names Fire OS 6.5.7.4 as known to work. The Echo Show 8 guide says what to do when the first-boot download of Kiosk Satellite fails.
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 guide, leaving out twrp wipe data.
If your Show no longer rejoins its Wi-Fi after a restart, connect it by hand first with adb shell "echo_service wifi connect '<ssid>' '<password>'", then install the update. Once it runs this release, it rejoins on its own.
Requirements
The Show needs amonet 2 with TWRP 3.7.0_9-0. See Unlocking. If the Show is on amonet 1, see Updating from amonet 1.
