[Kindle Fire Android Development] TheDoctor1177:
I'm doing exactly that, but nothing is happening. When I try to flash the ROM, it says "E:Unable to open zip file."
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lea9ue:
So just to verify you are clicking on cm9-2-24.zip in TWRP. After that near bottom of the screen says sdcard\cm9-2-24.zip then clicking flash? If that's the case I would mount to computer through TWRP and delete zip redownload and try again.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] TheDoctor1177:
That's exactly what I'm saying, and I did delete and try again and the same thing happens. But I'll try again.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jwilliamf:
Sir, if you wipe out everything, after wipe, mount and put the files in the sdcard, unmount and reboot, after twrp logo hit the power botton to go into recovery and then flash rom.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
r u wiping anything after flashing?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lea9ue:
:cool:

On page 186 trvor had same issue, on page 187 he/she says he/she fixed the problem but did not go into details. Maybe you can skim through some more pages or PM him/her.

Edit: After reading some more I can verify he is a him and he says it was a bad download.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
it could be a currupt download try redownloading zip from open and start again
[Kindle Fire Android Development] TheDoctor1177:
Okay, I wiped EVERYTHING. And finally it worked. For some reason I had to wipe my SD and SD ext and it worked. Thanks for baring with me guys.

So far liking it a lot.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Ch4m3l30n:
There used to be an option in the UI to enable/disable the boot animation under Performance settings... But it's missing in this build.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
just wiped and flashed between two roms and latest build still has boot animation for me did you wipe sdcard?

I didn't and still had my custom boot ani working on reflashed rom.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] keenerb:
I am unable to get wifi working with this build.

It connects, gets an IP address, but no traffic is passed, unable to ping gateway, gateway is unable to ping device.

It works fine with CM7 build and Kindle default.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
its aknown issue normally a reboot sorts it
[Kindle Fire Android Development] keenerb:
Yeah, I've rebooted about 20 times. No connection.

:(
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
Im on intersectravens kernel and latest cm9 all working awsome for two days.

maybe kernel will help.

Edit: look on pages 231/232 of this thread.

hope this helps :-)

maybe a full wipe and fresh install will sort it.

on my firt boot i got stuck at obtaining ip address and rebooted.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] keenerb:
I have one CWM backup that it always works on, and then a later CWM backup that it refuses to work on.

Knowing that, is there anything in particular I can do to help troubleshoot this?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
are they the same build just different back ups?

did you modify anything on later build?

are the backups from the same download and just different settings?

may need a little bit more info and if youve got a good working build then why not reuse that one?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] mdifilm:
Try to forget the connection and reconnect and enter the password for the wifi.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pats4life100:
So my computer will see my table if I flash that zip
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rmagruder:
Kill me now.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
log on reboot.

dont know if this helps anyone.

mine still works fine though
[Kindle Fire Android Development] keenerb:
Both same build, same flash. One backup is about three hours after the first. All I did was install a few apps and it's stopped working.

---------- Post added at 08:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:08 PM ----------

Already done this.

It won't even connect to my other wireless router, just continually tries to connect and then disconnects.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] wyhteagle:
If your getting an IP and no internet I don't think its an issue with the device. Can you open up terminal on the kindle and ping another device on the network?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] keenerb:
I can't ping default gateway or any local machine.

And, like I said, it just suddenly stopped working. As in, I was downloading an app in market, it failed, and I never got internet connectivity again UNLESS I revert to CM7 or an earlier CM9 backup.

I'm setting up a WEP AP now to see if I can connect to it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] philow:
Have you reset the router? That happens to me on my router from time to time.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] mvkirichenko:
Good afternoon. Has put last version ROM nind from February, 24th and googleapps. At the first initialization of the device after installation ROM the master of adjustment was started has reached to inclusion wifi and it doesn't join. Could include it only after reboot kindle. I Am sorry for bad English. Thanks for work!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Ch4m3l30n:
Anyone else having trouble synchronizing their Google Calendar after installing 2-24?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] CodenameDeadpool:
Be nice...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Simon.Otst:
I have. Maybe even since one of previuos builds. Any workarounds?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] tadaha:
It happened to me too.

I'm using the Asus RT-N56U router which support wireless channels up to 13.

So i went to my router configuration page, set the wireless channel to anything between 1-11 (instead of 'auto').

And my fire is able to connect properly.

Hope this helps.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] kodopraha:
no synch same problem

I have also problem. I post before but nobody answer. I use Calengoo and is fine with Calengoo but basic calender is no synch.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] nind:
If you have problems with calendar sync, it's a known issue for cm9, flashing

gapps-fixer.zip

should fix it.

Channel 12/13/14 wifi is supported, there is just no setting for this. Use build.prop editor to set

ro.wifi.channels

to 13 (or 14 if you live in japan)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ttabbal:
Hey, try to catch me in IRC, #kindlefire-dev or send me a PM with a gtalk. I'll help you get git going, or you can send me the files as a tarball and I'll get them into the git if you prefer. Git can be a bit tricky at first, but it's really nice once you get the hang of it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] JackpotClavin:
haha i got it! not really sure what went wrong.. but i got it!

https://github.com/jackpotclavin

it's the first two repositories, the device files and the vendor files for ics! enjoy folks!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] representingcochran:
Does this include all the fixes from the op and from the last couple of pages?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jutley:
Yes it does much more stable than the last release.

Can someone update the first post with the latest release.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] johnsaldivar:
Another nice write up and video for this project

http://liliputing.com/2011/12/how-to-install-configure-android-4-0-on-the-kindle-fire.html
[Kindle Fire Android Development] JackpotClavin:
So did you guys have to wipe your data? Did you lose any settings or anything? Was your home screen switched back to default?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] shobon:
I'm on it right now and there's no way to mount as a USB storage device...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ttabbal:
I'm downloading your binary now. I've been attempting to merge your changes with HashCode's repos. Did you change any of the blobs? I think I've got the makefiles merged, and the build works, so I'm trying to make sure I don't miss anything.

UPDATE: I'm reasonably sure I could get it working with kernel mods from both of them into the same repo. Any shot you guys can update the kfire-android kernel source with your changes? Perhaps add a repo for the ramdisk so we all have the same one? I think that would at least get wifi running. Sound worked, for the UI clicks anyway, adb still dead.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] duquesa:
Just updated from the original icecreamsandwich rom and it kept everything the same, ive just added spotify widget to it and the sounds playing perfect.

Well done JackpotClavin :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jwilliamf:
I did wipe everything before flashing. so far better than last build. As other reports, rotation lag still there, sound issues, a FC here and there but overall good so far.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rukin5197:
I'm getting automatic fc on market. But I only wiped cache and dalvik cache. But also, typing this, I've noticed almost all words aren't recognized by the dictionary. They all have red lines under it. Going to try to wipe all and test again
[Kindle Fire Android Development] JackpotClavin:
Actually that's a known bug. That totally slipped my mind this morning :/ sorry guys
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
Sound seems to be working more for me, but still not perfect. Google Music works on and off, and the buttons seem to make sound more often. Google Music seems to have the same issue as videos sometimes, skipping really fast. It's not all the time though.

Also, Market doesn't seem to Force Close on me.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jutley:
I allways wipe data/catch and factory reset then battery stats and then rotation stats, just to make sure and then when the new rom is installed i wipe catch again just to make sure and then i install google apps via twrp and then wipe catch again yes you got it just to make sure. And the result no force closes ;}
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jcatt:
Ok so I've been doing some playing arround looking at the logs for audio related events. And I think the audio bug has something to do with not selecting the correct set_output_device. Either the switches are misconfigured and they are sending audio to the wrong place or they arn't being triggered at all...

I noticed something weird that audio stated working when I pluged in a headphones to the line out jack. The weird thing thing is that the audio didn't come out of the headphones but out of the internal speakers...

Also for some reason, this is very beyond my understanding, whenever an event was triggered by wiredaccessoryobserver that vold managed to pick it up...

12-30 13:56:04.453: W/Vold(1284): Ignoring unknown switch 'headset'
12-30 13:56:04.453: W/Vold(1284): Switch /devices/virtual/switch/h2w event missing name/state info
12-30 14:03:49.687: W/Vold(1284): Ignoring unknown switch 'nodevice'

I'm gonna keep digging... Let ya know what I find
[Kindle Fire Android Development] shobon:
I can't install anything from the market, still. I get an error about USB storage :/
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jwilliamf:
I was about to mention google music, and for me it does skip while on google music, but on lock screen, i get the widget and does not skip when I click pause and play.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
Awesome, upload a ROM if you get a chance :)

EDIT: YES! CPU scaling is working properly on JackpotClavin's latest ROM :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jcatt:
I didn't... But I was greeted to a "Android is updating..." dialog when it booted back up and said something like "Optimizing application # of 90" which I have never seen with any other rom before. Is it a new ICS thing?

Everything was the same apart from I lost a few widgets...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ttabbal:
lol... you don't want what I've got so far, not much you can do with it. If I can get the kernel level stuff fixed and the wifi driver loading, it might be worth uploading.

---------- Post added at 12:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:21 PM ----------

The updating thing is an ICS thing. It's telling you that it's rebuilding the dalvik cache rather than sitting at the boot animation. :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] motioneso:
That worked for me. I had to change permissions and restart first, but I also uninstalled the calendar app trying to fix the issue before.

Thanks!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] wyhteagle:
Anyone else notice this thread get really quiet?

Did the thread move or we all just worked out the kinks and using this as a dailey now? I love this ROM!

*note most of this is sarcasm.

Enjoy!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] morgs640:
Excuse my ignorance as im sure this is answered somewhere here just couldnt find it, is flash player in browser working yet in this build? thanks
[Kindle Fire Android Development] nazull:
Nope, not yet =/

Sent from my cm7/cm9 Kindle Fire
[Kindle Fire Android Development] kodopraha:
not working

This fix is not working for me. Now is write that my Google accounts don't have synch calender. In accounts setting I don't have possibility to chack calender syncho.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] dnd61:
Yes, but a tablet without hw accelerate is poor
[Kindle Fire Android Development] isaiahhhhh:
I'll take this tablet any day over all other tablets, mainly because i'm broke. In all seriousness though this thread and the developers involved have done so much for the end users like myself out here who don't know much about the Android i'm perfectly willing to wait for them to gift us that hardware accelerated video if they achieve it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] N23:
hrhr, do you miss the questions for hw acceleration? :rolleyes:

I'm using this rom(s) for months as daily driver, nice work by the devs! It's getting better with each release - so if they continue with this speed i can't wait to see what will be here in about a week or two!

The only show stopper is the currently not working BubbleUPnP app (something broke it in the last releases) - but hey, it is currently under development!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Rouquemoute:
Glad to know I'm not the only one anxiously waiting for that app (and all other UPnP stuff) to be supported.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] theTwiz:
yeah did you notice your thread was moved to the general forum? kind of surprised me, but I'm not one to argue. I'm still planning on following up with logs from wireshark, but it's the end of the month and I work in finance, so good luck getting any free time out of me.

i still think whatever the problem is, it's related to the spotty wifi people have reported in this thread.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Rouquemoute:
Yep, the thread was moved. Fair enough.

Did a bit of shark capture analysis today but could only confirm jdommer's observations.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] AlexDeGruven:
Just like posting the same **** over and over with equally ****ty grammar.

I wish moderation on this forum was a lot more strict.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] kernelsandirs:
Video HW acceleration

Might be a ROM/HW n00b question but now that the ICS(CM9) port for the HP Touchpad is working, might there be a way to use code from that project in order to bring Video accel to kindle fire. I can now watch netflix on the touchpad(however that device became my wife's, so now I have to deal with only the kindle fire) :-)

Wish I could dual boot the KF and CM9 like the touchpad can between WebOS and Android.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Squuiid:
I was wondering the same thing. It seems that they used the old 2.x kernel on the Touchpad with ICS and managed to get Video H/W decode working very recently. I too am not a developer but it does seem as though this knowledge could be shared and potentially benefit the KF ICS development too.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] intersectRaven:
After looking at the TouchPad specs, it won't help since it's a Snapdragon GPU. The current problem with HW acceleration right now is making the hwcompositor play nice with the PVR driver. This means a 1.8 version of the PVR driver which unfortunately doesn't exist in 2.6 kernels. :(
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gadgetman13:
I know I'm not adding anything valuable to this, but it just gets to me when people comment or complain about HW Accel again and again. This has been discussed over and over on this thread and either people aren't following the thread, not understanding what the devs are saying, or just don't care.

I ask you to use just a teensy, tiny bit of logic.

Don't you think the devs themselves want HW Accel to work? If you don't think so, then I don't think any of us can help you. I won't tell you to go play in traffic on the interstate, but I also can't help thinking that to myself.

If you do believe that the devs want it to work (if for nothing else than the absolutely incredible bragging rights of having figured it out), then I ask you, "Why would they withhold it from us?" Easy answer, BECAUSE IT'S NOT AS SIMPLE as you make it out to be. If it were as easy as using HP Touchpad's code or learning how they did it, don't you think that would have already been done? -Sigh-

How about the following for more informed answers:

and

Seriously, folks, read the UART thread. If after that you still aren't impressed by all the work that the devs are doing, I don't think you deserve to get this ROM - much less the one that will have HW Accel working.

For the love of everything that you hold holy or dear, please stop asking about HW Accel making it sound like it should have already been done or that it's something easy to do. You're getting ALL of this work for FREE! Or have you donated? (I sort of doubt it.)

I'll get off my soapbox now... -sigh-
[Kindle Fire Android Development] theTwiz:
i finally got time to do the same just now, and can also confirm jdommer's observation. the kf seems to be sending out perfectly fine ARP requests, but not receiving them. i also have a g2 running andromadus v12, which bubbleupnp runs fine on. the wireshark logs are night and day when i turn on bubbleupnp.

its been a while since i've analyzed wireshark logs though, so im posting both the one of my g2 and of my kf in case someone wants to take a look. in both logs, i started capture filtering the IP address of the respective device, with wifi on the device turned off. i then turned wifi on, waited for connect, then about 10-15 seconds later (when traffic died down) started bubbleupnp. i let it run for a few minutes before shutting down bubbleupnp, then shutting down wifi. this was done on each device individually, one at a time, as i already have both a upnp server and a upnp renderer hardwired on my network that were up at all times to confirm connection or lack thereof.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ZzHacks:
True that:cool:
[Kindle Fire Android Development] intersectRaven:
Can anyone post a downloadable Nexus S ROM with working HW acceleration that uses 2.6.35 kernel? I can't seem to download from multiupload and all I see links to there. I need it to test something I've been working on. :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] foxdog66:
If you haven't got it yet, point me to the download and I'll dropbox it for you
[Kindle Fire Android Development] intersectRaven:
Here're a list:

[Kindle Fire Android Development] cruel91:
Anybody here using Smart Office Piscel ??? While reading documents, My KF is usually freezed :confused: ( filesize is about 700kb for PowerPoint and 30kb for .DOC) Is that a ROM problem or App problem ??? I only found this is the only great App for documents on Android
[Kindle Fire Android Development] foxdog66:
Yeah I can't seem to get it either. I could ask my buddy to verify that it's not broken and maby get it (he has an account and they usually have priority over downloads) but that would probably take longer than spyz88. I'm not sure he is even online at this time
[Kindle Fire Android Development] spyz88:
Finally finished uploading them. intersectRaven check above post for links.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] uoY_redruM:
This could get quiet interesting :D

Can't wait to see what this brings.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] intersectRaven:
Thanks. The first one I indicated was a false lead. Anyways, I hope this other one has the files I need. :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] intersectRaven:
Hmmm...I can't open it...can you post the MD5 to verify? Either my download's broken or the upload broke or what was downloaded was broken in the first place. :p
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Ch4m3l30n:
This resolved my calendar sync issue.

Thank you very much!

Synch calender

I don't have possibility to check on acount setting synch calender. For 4 Google accounts is not any check to synch calender. What can be please ? This fix is not worlkinf for me.

Has a version of Safestrap been developed for the KF yet?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] spyz88:
Seems as if Hashcode got UART working over in the UART thread. They can start on a 3.x kernel now.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
Can you post the uart thread again as my search doesn't find it.

Thanks.

Steve

Edit. It's ok I've found it : )
[Kindle Fire Android Development] csholmq:
Here's my original thread where we found the UART pads.

And here is Hashcodes thread where he provides instructions on how to hook everything up as well with his findings.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Hashcode:
Because the Kindle Fire is unlocked and we have the ability to put a good stock recovery on the device, there's really no need for Safestrap. And I'm not sure a ROM swapping recovery would work well on a device with such a limited amount of internal storage.

I'm more interested in talking w/ Koush and seeing if we can get Kindle Fire support in RomManager, now that we have a working ClockworkMod Recovery.

That way users can update w/ ease, instead of having to sift through threads looking for updates.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
Goodluck, he's hard to get in contact with. I was trying to get our cwm hosted back when we first finished it to no response. Getting the source to the newer touch recovery would be awesome too even tho our current version does work fine.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
IM using your current recovery and it works perfect.

Thanks
[Kindle Fire Android Development] un4givn85:
so can we assume from the silence that everyones hard at work on the hwa?

just to point out, im not asking for an eta, the thread just kinda died lol
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
U guys are halarious. There working on the 3.0 kernel, just be patient. Hashcode said it himself, it wont happen over night..
[Kindle Fire Android Development] un4givn85:
sweet

i figured they were working on it, i was just checkin
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
hashcode has had uart sorted now for at least 24 hours (stop messing about). you should have had a working kernel at least 22 hours ago.lol

all jokes aside.

massive thanks.

everyone should realise that he risked his kf going bang to sort out the debugging on the 3. kernel.

thanks again.

I can not get wifi to work at all. I click on the "OFF" button to turn it ON but nothing happens, it just sits there. What am I doing wrong?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] raiderep:
If its your first boot after an install all you need to do is power off and back on and it should work fine. That worked for me and continues to if it happens again which is very rarely...
