This fixes the restriction introduced by the latest FireOS version (at least on Fire TVs): the setting enabled_accessibility_services cannot be changed anymore via adb, however it can still be changed via application. Hence the solution: change it via LauncherHijack itself. This way, instead of setting the accessibility variables manually, the users just need to grant LauncherHijack the required system permission:
adb shell pm grant com.baronkiko.launcherhijack android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
