If the Kindle Silk browser has detailed configuration options that let you specify the user agent to be presented, you could figure out a desktop UA that works by trial and error ( ). I used to have to spoof FF3.6.24 to be IE 6 to get eBay checkout to work, and as Opera Mini for these forums too until I moved those tasks into this FF31 browser) I prefer the Yahoo Mail mobile interface for managing email in Firefox 3.6.24, so I automatically spoof FF3.6.24 to be Opera Mini for that entire domain - that works because I only access Yahoo Mail pages in that particular browser.

SILK BROWSER FULL

I have to do that manually because the automatic addon only does full domains, not subdomains or only certain pages, and I don't want to use a FF52 US for the entire eBay domain. Manually spoof it to be FF52, reload the page, and it works fine. For example, one of the the eBay label management pages results in an eBay logo, header, and footer with the rest of the page blank in FF31. (I use multiple addons in my desktop Firefox browsers to manually choose user agents for specific sites or automatically for some. That tells me they are probably just using the browser transmitted user agent, and are not using deeper diving device profiling script approaches. I'm pretty sure simple user agent spoofing will work since I can spoof my Firefox 3.6.24 desktop browser as an iPhone, iPad, or Opera Mini browser and get the same 'device no longer supported' errors. Edge on the phone is a trainwreck, so I just don't buy anything on eBay when on my phone (that's right eBay - I go to Amazon instead where things work The problem is that Opera Mini has no capability to specify user agent like Opera Mobile did on my old Win6 phone. All just sloppy programming on eBay's part.

SILK BROWSER WINDOWS 10

Same issue using my Windows 10 mobile phone with Opera Mini browser - half of the functions on (like searching, viewing, buying) fail with the 'mobile site no longer supported' error even though the browser is in full desktop mode and the pages mostly work fine when I manually manipulate URLS or come at them from a different starting point.

SILK BROWSER SOFTWARE

Might be possible if software you are using allows spoofing user agents or specifying user agent to be used assuming that that is the only method eBay is using to determine that the device is unsupported (even though the device actually works fine with eBay)

You can adjust the Silk browser’s settings in the Fire TV’s main Settings area under Applications > Silk Browser.>Is there any way to stop eBay from redirecting to m.ebay when using a browser?.

To select a link, press the select button on the remote, followed by the up/down/left/right combination associated with the link you want to select. Use the up and down buttons on the remote to scroll.

The URL you entered will load in the Silk browser.

To use the Silk browser, launch the Opener app, enter the URL you want to load, and select the Go button.

The simplest way is to head back to the home screen of my Downloader app and enter bit.ly/ftvopener in the URL field and select the download button.

Sideload my Opener app on your Fire TV or Fire TV Stick.

You will be asked to open the URL in the built-in browser, where you’ll need to move a cursor to click a download button.

SILK BROWSER INSTALL

The simplest way to do this is to install my Downloader app from the official Amazon appstore, enter bit.ly/ftvsilk in the URL field, and select the download button.

Sideload the Silk browser on your Fire TV or Fire TV Stick.

Installing the Silk Browser and Opener app While this solution is not as good as the fully functional Silk browser, which is expected to support voice input, it does allow you to use the Silk browser today on the Fire TV, before it’s officially released. I’ve created a simple Opener app for the Fire TV that takes a URL you enter and opens it in the Silk browser.

If you simply sideload the Silk browser, it’s not useable due to missing components that will likely arrive in a future Fire TV software update. Amazon is working on bringing their Silk web browser to the Fire TV and Fire TV Stick.
