Kindle Fire’s Silk Browser ported to other Android devices

Good news today for those who were looking to install or get the browser that sits on the Kindle Fire, Silk, on their own Android devices.

A group of developers from XDA started to share information on how to port the Silk web browser on different Android devices. In order to do this, you will need a rooted Android device and a file that can be downloaded and installed in the /system/lib directory with permissions set as the current folder.

Next you would need to side load all your desired .apks and move the Silk apk from /data/app to /system/app. The final step is to reboot your Android device and the Silk browser experience from the Kindle Fire with access to Amazon’s cloud-based service is now available at your fingertips.

For more details on how to install head to XDA or visit our Kindle Fire Forum.
