It may be how the Amazon folders are set up, at first mine were system/venndor/amazon, and in the amazon folder was a short cut to the blaze file, so I had to cut that and move it into the amazon folder and delete the short cut, same with the system/device/amazon
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
That's what I get for redoing something at 5 in the morning, I'll take a look at the readme and see if I can't fix it, sorry.

For future reference also please feel free to fork the repos and make pull requests for any changes.

Edit: Ok I fixed the readmes for both branches, sorry again about the confusion.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Elbob10s:
With all due respect he didn't create CM7 and wouldn't it just be easier for someone who has already built to post it, rather than multiple posts trying to help build it again?

[Kindle Fire Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
I'm saying if someone wants to build a version, then start another thread. Now the xda convention is for the OP to update versions and info in the first post of a thread, and it implies that they are the main support for that.

When and if someone adds a version to a thread, then where do you find the newest update? Post #1, post #1013, what about the ones in post #602 and #844? To me that gets messy and confusing.

I am not saying that whistlestop invented CM7, just that he started his version in this thread; by all means, anyone building an updated version with new commits, start a thread and post it. The confusion of what one to use and what is newer with fewer problems remains, but we are not complicating this thread and annoying the dev who started it, making them give up and move on as the flash mob updates take over.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
This is one of the primary reasons I have not posted an updated build myself. As for creating an alternate thread and posting builds there, I'm afraid I'm not particularly interested in maintaining binary builds. The main reason I fiddle with this is to try to teach myself something new and that is on the code side of things only.

To that end if anyone would like to build something using my repos/branches and post it in an alternate thread they are more than welcome to do so. I have been fiddling around in CM9 and it has become my primary OS, but I will continue to provide information and assisted regarding CM7 as best I can (not including the post of binary builds).

Sorry for any inconvenience but thank you for your understanding.

Is there anyway for you to punch out an update to fix the keyboard so we have full numbers on the top, as some of my passwords / usernames use the missing numbers and it's prob the only thing I dislike about the ROM :D

Hi

I flashed CM7, play a little with it. Now I want to re-flash and have clean /sdcard. I was wondering if it would be safe to wipe all of the files on the /sdcard? Will I have TWRP after that?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Skimp Killah:
Has anyone who compiled from source having wifi issuses? When I flash my build everything works, but wifi always scans and doesn't detect anything.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Veritass:
you can mount ur kindle on the pc and delete the files in the sdcard like that

Was trying to clean up some unused branches and so for about 10 minutes last night that repo was actually renamed than deleted (that was around 1my time, was hoping noone would be effected lol) at any rate it its back and my tree in general is a little cleaner which (trying to make it easier for y'all to build from. It should work again though,, if not color me puzzled, and post so I can look into it.

Edit: just for knowledge, I have updated the readme to include extra information for after flashing. Included is the keyboard fix.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
Wifi worked fine for me on my build. The only issue I had was the frequent status bar FC's I mentioned yesterday.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] devilot:
Check the keyboard language settings. Mine was set to the wrong selection and changing it corrected the missing numbers on the top tow.

If I could hit that thanks button 100 times thats what I'd be doing as I wait for my puter to finish building, cause thanks to you that's what its doing. Now on to figuring out what to do once its done. Was prompted to install schedtools, I must have missed that one. Was nice about it, even gave directions for doing so. Ran the last line again after that and just like that my monitor was filled with all kinds of stuff I dont understand. Anyhow thanks for the help.

Edit: can't help but watch it do it's thing. Have seen Warning scroll down the screen a few times, that anything to worry about?

Just finished building and have one last noob question, is update-squished the output file I am looking for and is there anything I need to do to close it out, After it had finished I received,

Please install pngcrush, optipng, or pngout

Should I move to desktop in browser and change all permissions to Read/Write? Sorry, think I read one to many conflicting guides in the last 48 hours. Also need to learn how to post code correctly on the forums.

Guess I'm just going to flash and see what happens, not so much concerned about the bugs as I just wanted to build from Source to get my feet wet. Will wait until after work to try flashing the zip so I have some Troubleshooting time if need be. Thanks again to twa_priv & Sblood86 for helping me complete my mission. If all goes well will try and take what I learned and try to build CM9.

Edit: Flashed and all is good, no FC issues either. Almost did back flips when I saw my blue friend cruse by on the skate board. Major sense of accomplishment going on, thanks again.

Lied about the FC issue, was fine with a fresh install but after I restored my backup and updated Status Bar will FC on startup, seems to be fine after it reloads though.

Works great! But is there any way to increase the sound? I've turned the volume all the way up and pushed all the volume things up in the DSP manager (I think that's what its called) and it still isn't that loud. We've only had it for about 3 days and never played music obser it, so it may he normal.. if not, anyway to increase the volume?

Apparently this is a CM issue, they have a patch in review but who wants to wait on them right? (I tried just applying this as an overlay but for some reason it didn't work properly, wound up forking the entire frameworks_base repo for a single patch Oo)

To apply the patch you will need to reinitialize your repo.

repo init -u git://github.com/IngCr3at1on/android.git -b gingerbread

Not an issue I'm having, try reinitializing your repo.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Hinkley:
Argh yes, English US Keyboard fixed ;) - I just assumed it would have defaulted to this :P
[Kindle Fire Android Development] airmaxx23:
There is an app called Volume + in the Market that will bump up the volume for you.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] devilot:
Aye, I assumed that as well, initially. I happened upon the fix purely on accident too. =) Glad it helped!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
I assume you're talking about this patch: http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,12294. It's already approved and merged.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
I am talking about that yes, looks like they approved it and merged it about 2 hours after I made my changes, ironic timing lol

Edit: I'll switch my manifest back to pull from the cm framework repo later tonight to easier keep up with their other changes (keeping my fork anyway cause I want to look into some other matters)

Noob alert- Is it safe to download the mediafire rom and use it? Or do we need build our own KANG. Btw, is the video working on this one? YT, netflix etc
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
I use the one from first post. Video audio all work fine. Only thing not working is bluetooth since Amazon disabled it. Some are trying to geti it enabled. I use this daily and have for a month or more.

I'm having issues with mine, suddenly. I can browse the web from my web browser, but that is literally all that will work on the internet. Market says no connection. IMDB says no connection. My todo manager says no connection. Any idea why nothing but the web browser is working on my device now?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] cloud71:
Hello all, I have a question:

I just rooted and now have fff and teamwin on , right after I did this I went into recovery and did a backup.

Out of all the options it had 3 defaults checked which was:

System

Data

Boot

Im now getting ready to put CM7 on it,

If I wish to do a recovery back to a stock kindle rom after CM7 is on, is those 3 options all I need to be backed up or do I need more of those options checked to do that.

The reason im asking is just in case say something happens like it wont change anymore or something that I could get an exchange will that backup take me to a stock kindle like it was before CM7.

Thankyou
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
Restoring a backup will not remove root and recovery/TWRP. To restore it to factory see this link: http://www.jayceooi.com/2011/12/28/how-to-restore-stock-software-on-kindle-fire-video/. It works btw, I tried it out.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] damngood98:
Trying to catch up with the latest here. The Kindle is my son's & I haven't done anything to it since rooting it & installing cm around Xmas. Is there anyone that's actively maintaining a "nightly" so to speak? Unless I'm mistaken it seems it's being left to the user to do their own personal compilation?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] foxdog66:
There has been a few fixes. Links for the wipe all and apply over cm zips are up to date.

Is CyanogenMod still working on gingerbread (cm7) or has most efforts been focused on ICS (cm9)?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
They are still merging code updates to their gingerbread trees; I would venture to guess they will continue gingerbread support for sometime being that ICS isn't actually running on all that many devices in comparison.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] cloud71:
Thankyou twa_priv thats very useful.

Ok this might be a crazy question, but has anyone that has put CM 7 on there kindle fire gotten palringo to install and work?

I know that it doesnt work just on rooted kindle but im hopeing it will with cm7 on it .

God Bless

Ok I got cm7 on my kindle fire now, before I did I made a backup with twrp recovery.

with that backup is there a way to put my apps that i had installed before cm7 back on without having to reinstall them ?

or did flashing cm7 per instructions remove all that stuff?

God Bless
[Kindle Fire Android Development] airmaxx23:
You could have used Titanium Backup to back up your apps prior to installing CM7, now that you're on it I don't know if there's anything you can do or not.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Anthonok:
Make a backup of your cm7. Restore your pre cm7 backup. Use titanium back up and backup the apps. Restore cm7 and restore titanium backups

There are others doing versions with the CM7 commits, at least two that I have tried while waiting for this one. I do not feel right posting links to others and hijack this thread.

Gotcha. I want paying attention to the context of your reply. You're right though, CM9 is not near ready for daily use.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] acax456:
so any updates guys??
[Kindle Fire Android Development] cloud71:
Hello all, I have cm7 on my kindle fire.

the market is saying that I have 2 updates Rom manager and superuser.

should I do the updates?

and also for some reason when my kindle fire reboots or turned back on its defaulting back to the cm7 wallpaper and not staying at the wallpaper that I selected.

it just started doing that yesterday for some reason, is there a setting somewhere that I may have changed, that would cause this?

Update:

I figured out the wallpaper prob.

I moved all the apps that I installed over to the sd partition, which made that wallpaper app not stay when everytime kindle is rebooted. I just remove it back to phone setting and that took care of prob.

still wondering about the updates to the rom manager and superuser.

God Bless
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
Rom manager doesn't support the kf I have removed it from my source trees and does not come on the newer cm7 builds posted you could ignore it or remove it with titanium backup you could also update it so it quits prompting, won't make much difference being that you won't be using it.

As for su, yes update it
[Kindle Fire Android Development] CodenameDeadpool:
Hey can I remove the phone.apk and etc. with titanium as well?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Takenover83:
Yes, safe to remove. But you might get a FC. It goes away after a reboot.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] CodenameDeadpool:
Cool. Thank you.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] CodenameDeadpool:
After Trying a couple other CM7 and ICS ROMs, this is by far the most stable I've seen. I use it everyday. Just wanna say great job to all those involved.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] furtom:
I know this is an old post in this thread, but I'm finding the same issue and can't come up with a solution.

I've deleted (or frozen) all such phone, telephony, mms, voice dial, etc. type apps and I'm still having the battery sucked up by "Phone idle" and "Cell Standby."

I did install imo, i wonder if that can be the culprit?

If someone has solved this issue, could you please post the exact steps? Thanks so much.

Otherwise, this is an absolutely awesome ROM! :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
This seems to be confusing a lot of people for no reason. Cm7 is gingerbread because of that it its primarily for phones.... phone idle is tablet idle .... key word there is idle, meaning it's not doing anything.... cell standby is pretty much the same it's saying the device is in standby there is no reason to change/remove anything to effect idle/standby
[Kindle Fire Android Development] furtom:
what you say makes sense and I have no reason to doubt you. So, thanks for the reply! ;-)

But I wouldn't quite say "no reason." it's confusing people for a good reason: It's confusing!

We all know we can uninstall telephone apps, etc. Yet we see seemingly unneeded processes going on. Natural to come to the wrong conclusion.

But you explained it well. Thanks again.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
You are right I should have chose my words more carefully I didn't mean there was no reason to be confused but rather no reason to want to remove those features as they are actually functioning as expected for the most part. Mainly has to do with it being coded for a phone and not even considering the difference between the types of devices.

For example if someone were to do the research to find where in the source code it says "Cell Standby" and "Phone Idle" we could actually change these to say whatever we want. As it stands 'standby' and 'idle' are pretty good indicators that it's not actually doing anything during that time. Sorry if I came off short in my earlier post I wrote that while at work (talking to not so bright people).

On a more chipper note I'm off to go try to figure out how to compile the wifi module from hashcodes kernel...

See, this is where the prospect becomes tantalizing. In my case, these two processes consume about 20% of battery power. So, it certainly seems like they are doing something, doesn't it? I guess I'm just greedy. :D

No worries. You weren't short. We're just having an interesting conversation.

Well, that's what it's all about. Looking forward. Thanks so much!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Bonnie_Raitt:
I've been running this ROM for several weeks on several different KFs. The two issues, I've noticed are SOD and problems with Wifi.

SOD sometimes doesn't respond to the 20 second power button trick. Very annoying.

Wifi sometimes refuses to connect to my network. I have tried deleting connection, turning wifi off and then back on, then reconnecting. Sometimes at this point it WiFi keeps disconnecting while it's trying to verify the IP address.

Any solutions for eith er of these problems?

i flashed this rom again just because everything works so well...

i would like to flash ravens kernels but not sure how im supposed to do it, do i just flash it in twrp? and how would i know im overclocked?

also anyway i can put a lockscreen?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
Just flash it in TWRP. Works well for me. I'm using CPUSpy and SetCPU.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
Strangely I've yet to see that specific error but I was fiddling with things related to the power control widgets this is why I suggested a clean make in my PM.

It does however seem that CM broke their own source...

Give it another sync and have another go at it lol
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Takenover83:
Will do. Thanks for the heads up.

SMASH!!!

I posted that while still waiting on my build... It had progressed passed the errors I was getting and now I'm seeing yours, give me a bit. This actually looks like my changes Oo

Sorry for inconvenience lol.

Edit: Fixed...

I tested my actual changes last night but what with something having screwed up in the process of uploading it I'm still testing my most recent build.

Re-sync

again

try again, sorry again for the inconvenience. At this point we should have everything up to date w/ CMs changes and a few more practical defaults for ourselves.

No need to apologize (or SMASH anything lol). Just finished Re-syncing and building. So all is well now as far as building goes.

BTW you should remove some apps for a future release like camera, phone, or other apps than we wont be able to use ever.

You don't have to manually do it, the .zip will do it for you and you do not need to do a factory reset.
