Well, once the project officially gets accepted into Cyanogenmod we can report bugs through their system.

So excited! Great work!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Xplorer4x4:
I could be wrong but i think this rom is meant to be kept mostly stock ICS borowing from cm9 only when necessary. Someone please correct me if i am wrong, but i thought i read this a few pages back.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] droidman101:
They also talked about maybe making it an official cyanogenmod-supported device with them as maintainers.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] HeWhoWas:
I don't know about the image that's being used at the moment, but I do know that JackpotCalvins' instructions produce a CM9 build, with KF support. There are a few really professional devs working on this, and then people like myself who learn as they go, but as far as I'm aware it's a CM9 build.

Edit - Build string is CM_Otter-eng - It's CM9.

Edit again - Jackpot/Jcase - when is sdcard being mounted? I'm trying to bind .android_secure to /mnt/asec to try and get around the install issue, but can't find where to try it. Eh, I'm about to go to bed, was going to try something like this:

mount --bind /sdcard/.android_secure /mnt/secure/asec

Edit - Ok, so it works! I couldn't find the right place in an init script, and it's wayyyy past the time I should be in bed, but if you want to get it working you can open Terminal emulator and use the following lines:

su

mount -o bind /sdcard/.android_secure /mnt/secure/asec

This will not work after a reboot, but if someone hasn't put it into a ROM by this time tomorrow, I'll post a patch/ROM.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bl1nkk:
This is JackpotClavins work. I just split the topics correctly.

I've been testing the sd fix. Looks good. When wifi is connected, CPU seems to stay at 1GHz most of the time. Disabling wifi seems to make the CPU run at the lower clocks more. I noticed that google talk is crashing , could that be trying to start in the background? Anyone else see that happening?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] FroyoShark:
I did both of those, however I'm only able to access the sd card from my computer. I tried rebooting too, but I'm unable to move apps to the sd card or open pictures or music with gallery or the music app.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bl1nkk:
I have looked into this, it crashes because it is checking the state of the camera, which we don't have. We will need a modified Talk.apk :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Icetech3:
Thanks so much for the work on this:) Was curious though, what is the status of graphics accell? And does anyone elses sound work for clicks and such.. but not google music or web?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] FroyoShark:
Sound works for everything, but it only works sometimes.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Icetech3:
Cool, thanks... i love tinkering with this stuff:)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] iluretar:
I noticed that exact same thing on my device
[Kindle Fire Android Development] adbirdie:
Go to the app drawer, top right hand corner is three dots. Click on that, then trebuchet settings.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] Hashcode:
So I was experimenting with hwcomposer today and I realize why in part we can't bring that module into the build. When I straced the surfaceflinger service on startup I got this:

21:02:23.894989 open("/sys/power/wait_for_fb_sleep", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

21:02:23.902160 read(-1, 0x40bb5e8f, 1) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)

21:02:23.902282 close(-1) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)

21:02:23.902435 writev(4, [{"\5"..., 1}, {"SurfaceFlinger\0"..., 15}, {"ANDROID_WAIT_FOR_FB_SLEEP failed (Bad file number)\0"..., 51}], 3) = 67

21:02:23.902770 open("/sys/power/wait_for_fb_wake", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

21:02:23.908538 read(-1, 0x40bb5e8f, 1) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)

21:02:23.908660 close(-1) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)

21:02:23.908782 writev(4, [{"\5"..., 1}, {"SurfaceFlinger\0"..., 15}, {"ANDROID_WAIT_FOR_FB_WAKE failed (Bad file number)\0"..., 50}], 3) = 66

When i checked /sys/power, we don't have wait_for_fb_wake in there. And when I did some research it added up to: the stock kernel doesn't support kernel/android-2.6.35/kernel/power/earlysuspend.c/fbearlysuspend.c

So, now I'm experimenting w/ IntersectRaven's / g1011999's kernels to see if I can do better. (I believe g1011999' enabled that option when he upgraded the PVR drivers).
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bl1nkk:
That's something I've seen too, but you're never on IRC. How could I have told you? :P
[Kindle Fire Android Development] flamingBurrito:
So I see that this rom isn't rooted? Any idea on how to do that yet?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bl1nkk:
Flash this in TWRP.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] JackpotClavin:
It's rooted but it doesn't have the superuser app. I'm putting those in all new builds for us as well as the file explorer from cm7 and the ics colorful boot animation

Hash and I have found a workaround for the wake lock thing :) can't wait till this hwcomposer is all set!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jutley:
Going to hold of just bait longer then untill next release thanks.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] flamingBurrito:
Ah k. I downloaded super user from the market and it works fine now.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jcatt:
Wow, you say that right after I flashed it... SO excited to see this go far, I can't believe how far you guys have come. Even in its current state its super smooth.

Thanks again for your work...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] QuBe2:
How can i make screenshot's with ICS? by my nexus s it is power+volume down but the Kindle Fire haven't got a volume button so can you look for a fix because if i use a app i only see the word : Android_
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bl1nkk:
Either wait for a patch that integrates a screenshot option to the power menu, use some app from the market or enable usb debugging, get the android sdk on your pc and start "ddms", there's an option to take screenshots.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] QuBe2:
ADB isn't working on my pc so in had to use kindle utilly on my mom's pc so the option for ddms is inpossible. the apps from the market give me a black screenshot

And when is the sound going to work
[Kindle Fire Android Development] JackpotClavin:
Sorry all has been slow on the development front these past few days. I've been busy taking care of non-android issues :-)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
Yes, this is supposed to be mostly stock. I do believe the devs have talked about moving to CM9 once this is complete though.

---------- Post added at 08:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:44 AM ----------

No problem, everyone's got jobs and whatever lol. If you get a chance, could you post a ROM with the volume tweak? (even if it's still in the left side buttons, it's better than nothing).
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bl1nkk:
It's CM9 already.

Was reported about 20 times now, yes. ;) Instead of wiping you can also delete the settings in /data/data
[Kindle Fire Android Development] iflip:
If not it can be hacked to work. Someone in the nook color forms got it to work on cm7. I'm assuming it would be easier on ics since it is supported.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
Please add to OP: If for some reason you don't have .android_secure, just create a folder with that name in /sdcard/

(I had that issue and it took me a few minutes to figure out)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bl1nkk:
Added that. :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
After implementing that /sdcard/ fix, I've been seeing reboots when looking at app or storage settings, even if I don't run that command after a reboot.

EDIT:

OKAY! So as I mentioned above, I did the /sdcard/ fix to install some apps from the Amazon App Store (Teamviewer, Tetris and XDA Premium). After doing that, I tried to look at the application and storage settings in the main settings menu. Looking at either one caused the system to crash. I uninstalled each app individually to try to identify what caused the issue. Low and behold, the last app that I uninstalled also fixed the settings issue. So I installed the other two, and tried the settings again. Guess what happened? Same issue, storage and app settings crashed the OS. I uninstalled one, tested, then uninstalled the other, and tested again. After uninstalling both (all three) apps (again), the issue was fixed.

So clearly, if we fix the /sdcard/ issue, we add an issue in the settings, causing Apps and Storage settings to crash the OS. I'm certain it's related to the fact that /sdcard/ is being mounted because there is a section in the Apps settings menu labeled "On SD Card" and similar SD Card related sections in the Storage settings menu.

Essentially, if there is any app installed to the SD Card, viewing App and Storage settings causes the OS to crash.

It's still a step in the right direction, but the fix brought about another problem...

EDIT 2: Added to bug list
[Kindle Fire Android Development] xheavymetaldadx:
I'm getting those without the sd fix

Edit: now I know why I had it before lol
[Kindle Fire Android Development] HeWhoWas:
I'll have a look through ADB when I get home - I can't get it to work on my work PC and it's driving me mental.

Edit - Can anyone confirm that with Jackpot's ROM, and without the bind mount fix, that this still happens?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
I had the same issue when I first installed this ROM, but then I wiped the thing and it went away so I thought it was just an upgrade bug. I hadn't been able to reinstall the sdcard apps until today, and as soon as I did, I got the bug. It happens weather or not I run the terminal command or not. I saw a few other people report this a few times in the past, but it was never considered a real "bug" because we had just assumed this was an upgrade-related thing.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] datacron:
I was looking forward to running ICS so I could install some ICS specific software. Sadly once I was running ICS this software wasn't listed in the Market and attempting to load the apk directly resulted in a parsing error. Is there any way of running ICS software yet?

The second problem I had was that the desktop was limited to a small square of the screen; I could not place icons at the top or bottom of the screen and no dock was present with either launchers.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] xheavymetaldadx:
My issue was any app data in .Android_secure was causing the issue? Dont know but thats what i figured out.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
Looks like that's the case for me too. Good find. :)

EDIT: I just tried mounting to another folder, and that didnt work either. So its something to do with mnt/asec/secure or whatever it is...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] JackpotClavin:
I'm pretty sure I just fixed it. I took that line of code you shared and changed it so it just symlinks the two files and it fits nicely into the init.omap4430 script. I gave you a little credit in the init script too :-) can somebody tell me an app that wouldn't download before or would disappear upon reboot?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
XDA Premium, TeamViewer and Tetris where the ones for me, but I had downloaeded from Amazon App Store.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] treUse:
I did some research earlier, trying to solve the install issue. Everything worked except they didn't stick upon reboot; and then all of you found the solution, or almost anyway.

What I did find was that in /mnt/secure/asec the files did have different permission than those in my NS, which worked perfecetly using CM9.

Anyway, if it already works as JackpotClavin says, that's some good news :)

Edit:

As we all know, the sound is very inconsistent. But does seem to work infinitely if you, for example, would start watching a movie with working sound.

Is it some kind of focus issue? The audio is not called on properly? If so, why? And do you have an idea as to how to solve this?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] HeWhoWas:
Jackpot - Can you update the git, or post the changes to the init.omap file? I can't get /mnt/secure/asec and /sdcard/.android_secure to symlink for the life of me, keep getting various errors relating to files not existing. Even after remounting rootfs as rw.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] L1near:
That looks awesome. Keep up the good work!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] FroyoShark:
Devs don't like being asked for ETA's :P
[Kindle Fire Android Development] crl0901:
How useable is this ROM in it's current state? Is it fast and stable enough for daily use?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] tonebone:
I don't think its really close to being used for daily use, its just enough to really get everyone excited for a full working copy.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] representingcochran:
I have been using it as my DD since the 1229e zip was released. Have had no issues besides what has been disclosed in the OP or in the last 15 pages. Works great for me.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] tonebone:
Ah, well, I think I will install it again and see how well it works for me. Thanks for the insight.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] tex5781:
only problem i have experienced other than whats listed is the missing apps in market. I've seen it mentioned but didnt see a fix in this thread yet
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
Not to rush you guys, but it'd be great if we could get an updated ROM with the /sdcard/ fix fix that JackpotClavin found, the volume control button and the fixed dictionary. Just if you get a chance to compile and upload, that'd be great, and we could start bug testing on a newer ROM :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] QuBe2:
I have installed those 2 apps

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.namakerorin.audiofxwidget

And

https://market.android.com/details?id=ca.xvx.volume

Now My sound is better it works for 2 minutes and then 10 minutes later it works again
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
Those are nice but nothing beats something built in.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ijwhelan:
How long does first boot normally take on this rom?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] treUse:
Not especially long.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] psg190:
I just flashed and I've been on the boot animation for a good 5+ minutes now . . . :confused:
[Kindle Fire Android Development] yumcax:
Probably a boot loop, but let it go for a little longer. The first boot always takes a while longer than a normal boot.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] psg190:
Any thoughts on what I can do to save a stalled out boot? I let it sit at the boot animation for about 8 minutes then went back into TWRP, wiped system, cache and dalvik and tried to install the rom then gapps again. Still stuck at the boot animation. :(
[Kindle Fire Android Development] JackpotClavin:
Backup your data then wipe it. If you don't like ics you can go back and restore data
[Kindle Fire Android Development] psg190:
I have wiped it. Is there anything to wipe besides system, cache and dalvik? No special full format zip like with other devices? Not sure why I'm stuck in a boot loop . . . .
[Kindle Fire Android Development] JackpotClavin:
It's a factory reset in twrp
[Kindle Fire Android Development] r0man:
I'm loving ICS but applications that should be using fragments such as Awful, Baconreader (I think), and IMDB seem to be using the regular phone versions instead. Is there some way to force applications to use the tablet versions?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] psg190:
Finally got it going after several wipes and reflashes. Working well now. :)

I'm sure this is an easy find, but I have searched for a while now and haven't found the answer yet. What's the best way to get Google Maps installed? I'm not seeing it in the Market. Should I just grab an apk floating around and side load it?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] HeWhoWas:
JackpotClavin, I ended up compiling your new commits, and I noticed you're exporting the SD Card path, which is what I assumed I missed and why the Settings -> Storage was causing the reboot, but the problem is persisting. You said that you could view there without it hot booting, do you mind sharing how?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bl1nkk:
Most likely a fix would be to change the fingerprint and stuff in your build.prop, so the market thinks it's some other device. You could also try to use OldMarket, as it doesn't check as critical as the new one does.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bl1nkk:
There are no tablet versions of those apps I think. :)

Edit: IMDB has a tablet view. I think our screens resolution is too small for it to work correctly, that's why it's falling back.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bitemeoftn:
So I've noticed the big thing right now is getting the SD mounting properly and I hate to pry, but has anyone gotten any closer to getting the audio/video working properly? That's the only thing keeping me from using this as a daily driver on my KF. I can't wait until this is stable!! I check this a good five or six times a day for updates lol.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] HeWhoWas:
For those who were asking for it: Here's a zip with the current repo in it. The only difference between this one and the last is that this has the /sdcard/ fix built in. This causes Settings -> Apps & Settings -> Storage to hotboot the unit. So, good with the bad.

bl1nk, you might want to add this to the OP. I'd leave the other one there though, for those who don't like the hotbooting settings.

http://www.mediafire.com/?g7wvub0fvz2egmw
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
Again, some idiot deleted everything in the spreadhseet. Thankfully, Google Docs has a really awesome way to handle revisions, so I just reverted it to just before stuff got deleted.

Also, I think JackpotClavin said he had a way to fix the /sdcard/ AND apps & storage bug. Still waiting for him to post it though.

Does the above build have the volume button and the dictionary fix too? Those are the two things I'm dying for (well those, and fixed audio and video).
[Kindle Fire Android Development] QuBe2:
No button and sound and video isn't working

EDIT: Market is force closing

EDIT2: Market is working now needed to reflash gapps_ics_4.0.3_v8.koush.zip
[Kindle Fire Android Development] r0man:
Is there any way to force them to launch in the fractured tablet mode? The screen size works well enough for Gmail, settings, and NewsRepublic.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Hashcode:
Some of video issues rely on the /dev/ion device which isn't present in the Kindle's Gingerbread kernel. I'm currently working on a 3.0.8 kernel for the Kindle. Once that's done it's a whole new game w/ 100% compatibility for ICS.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DeerSteak:
Is it too early to *squeal* like a schoolgirl? The fact someone is working on a kernel makes me very excited for the future of ICS on the KFire. :D
[Kindle Fire Android Development] iAmNotorious:
You're going to have a lot of money in your beer fund once you're done.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] treUse:
That's about the best news I've heard this year! Literally can't wait :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
So if we combine JackpotClavin's ROM and Hashcode's work-in-progess kernal...We fix almost all the major problems. Audio, video, dictionary, /sdcard/. Really looking forward to this. :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bwolters:
the browser glitches and not being able to rotate the home screen are what's keeping me from using it as a daily.

The browser from the native OS is pretty slick.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] HeWhoWas:
Browser works fine. Homescreen rotation works with current ROM on the last few pages.

Edit - And the ROM on the first page.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bwolters:
I never said it didn't work, just not entirely smooth, wasn't ragging.

I installed the latest build over the 1229e build and storage works great. All the apps that wouldn't install previously now install. Both amazon app store and the android market were working previously, but in the current build only amazon app store is working and the android market force closes upon launch. Anybody else experience this? I didn't try a factory reset, but thought it possibly unnecessary since I upgraded from the 1229e bUild. Anyways great progress on the rom.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Quantas:
Just reflash the Gapps
[Kindle Fire Android Development] redct:
I've tried changing the build.prop to match other tablets like the Xoom or the Galaxy Tab, but it doesn't seem to be working. OldMarket does work, however.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
Anyone have the latest Facebook APK? And preferably Facebook Messenger? I'm getting nagged to upgrade but can't since ICS isn't compatible, supposedly..
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bl1nkk:

[Kindle Fire Android Development] tex321:
Sorry for a newbie question, but is hotboot a regular reboot?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] MMDominator88:
Its like a force close-reboot. You cant stop it from happening if you decide to open up the storage settings under the main settings windows as previously mentioned. Just dont go into that menu and you shouldnt 'hotboot' :)

Sent from my CM7.1 HTC G2
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
I just flashed the new zip and wow. I went into the storage settings on purpose and no hotboots yet lol. feels awesome
[Kindle Fire Android Development] treUse:
You have to install an app requiring SD to make it crash.

Awesome, thanks :)
