Last I heard, Hashcode had figured out where the problem was in the kernal, but I don't know if he's actually corrected it yet.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bitemeoftn:
A lot of people seem to forget that this is a Development/DISCUSSION thread. Asking for help and getting solutions is allowed, and I haven't seen one developer of this ROM complain about people asking questions. I myself actually enjoy helping people out (even if the question has been answered a lot). Since I'm definitely NOT a developer I feel like I'm giving a little bit back when I can help someone out with a problem they're having. And just as much appreciate it when others help me out when I run into a problem I can't figure out. Yeah you can use search, but there's those times when something happens and you just flip out and hope to find a fix really quick lol.

On the last three builds, playing any game I've tried(WordFeud, Jelly Defense, Flick Golf, AGWB so far) cause the total freeze. WordFued seems to only do it when vieweing the board, not in the games list. They usually work for up to a couple minutes, but sometimes kill it straight away.

EDIT: I usually wipe data/cache, but for the last build(USBWOOT) I wiped everything, even SD, just to be sure. Also, World Of Goo seems to be working fine after finishing two levels.

EDIT 2: Space Cat also works fine for me, and is far more amusing than I expected it to be. Is there something I can do to try and provide some useful information for what's happening when it does crash?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rmagruder:
I'd like to help with logcat'ing the sleep of death issue if possible.

If it goes into sleep of death, should plugging a USB cable in and going to adb logcat show anything useful? Or would sleep-o-death also block logcat at that point? If it does block, I guess what we need is a logcat service running in the background logging the last N Minutes of operation so that sleep of death leaves a forensic trail, no?

[Kindle Fire Android Development] csholmq:
If you have the unit plugged in, open up a terminal and start up adb logcat. Then just leave it on. When you discover that you have had a SoD, just copy the last relevant lines to pastebin and link it here.

It's just as interesting to see what leads up to the SoD. Not just what directly caused it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] nind:
You can also use the terminal app on the fire to do this. Run:

su
cd sdcard
logcat | tee logcat.log

It will display the logcat and wirte that into a logcat.log file on your sdcard.

Just figured out HP touch pad has gotten rid of their SOD issue,

Then figured out someone said that they, "changed the kernel to p4 and it fixed the SOD"

...but I can't figure out what that post has to do with the kindle fire :confused:
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rukin5197:
Well maybe if we followed in their examples, we could crack down on the sod issue? Or maybe contact the cyanogenmod team to ask them what they did. I mean, the touch pad and the fire are very similar.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
Devs might be able to take a look at it and see how they fixed it for that device, and maybe use the same method for this device.

Boot Animation

Hey guys,

I've added this boot animation for CM9 to my build.

Let me know if anyone is interested and I will share via PM. I did NOT create this and will not link it here (I don't want a WAREZ violation...again.) Anyway, here's the video:

Nind did you try compling the kernel using codesourcery 2010q1-202?

UPDATE: Feel free to pull the kernel itself and modules from my device git

Kernel: https://github.com/KFire-Android/device-amazon-otter/raw/ics/kernel

Data usage modules (go in /system/lib/modules): https://github.com/KFire-Android/device-amazon-otter/tree/ics/modules

and then add the bold lines below to init.omap4430.rc:

# Boost the CPU for 60 sec for boot optimization

write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/hotplug/boost_timeout 60000000

write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/boost_cpufreq 1

# Load Quota2 support modules

# Allow everybody to read the xt_qtaguid resource tracking misc dev.

# This is needed by any process that uses socket tagging.

chmod 0644 /dev/xt_qtaguid

# make dir for cache

mkdir /cache/download 0777 system system

# We chown/chmod /data again so because mount is run as root + defaults

chown system system /data

I looked through the 6.2.1 update from Amazon and still couldn't find out when nvs_map.bin is created (Though wifi_load.sh and the other wifi scripts refer to it). Maybe someone who is a little more familiar with these types of things can take a look and find out how nvs_map.bin works on the stock Roms.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sikahr:
File is not in update, update is generic=equal for all kindles, file is unique for each kindle (diferent MAC address) so present only in original ROM.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Generic112:
I know, just thought that maybe its creation or use would be referenced (Since its generated at some point in the installation, but is nowhere to be found on the running system).
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sikahr:
From the system\xbin\run_wlancu.sh it seems that

wlan_cu -b -s wlan_cu.st

system\etc\wifi\wlan_cu.st

/ w p 1 l 2 f 2
/ t b v 21
/ t b t 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
/ q

generate file automatically without typing,

add automatic patch with random MAC and we are done :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sadalius:
I think you might be onto something there. Still would be better to have the correct MAC in my mind.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
Not sure if anyone else has noticed this I think its related to the /sdcard issue. I go to settings and try to view apps on the sd card the OS completely reboots.

EDIT: It happens when I open Apps in the settings, Storage in the settings, or try to use the camera (obviously there isn't one but that shouldn't crash the OS.) I thought I was using the ROM that fixed the /sdcard issue but maybe not.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Arlandw:
I noticed this too ^

Also has anybody had trouble with battery life? I noticed that if I am using the device while it is plugged into a charger it still continues to drain, just a lot slower.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bikeracer4487:
So, it turns out, unchecking the search bar option in Trebuchet settings also removes the App Drawer button, which consequently removes the only way to access the Trebuchet settings and get BACK the app drawer button. And since neither the CM Trebuchet, nor Android's Trebuchet appear in "Manage Apps" (they do appear, in cached running processes, but that only gives the option to stop them, not clear data) there's no way to revert to default settings. Hopefully, this will be addressed in future releases, but for anyone who makes a similar mistake, you can clear the data by downloading Titanium Backup and finding Trebuchet under "Backup/Restore" and choosing to delete the data from there. If you have no way of getting in the Market, or if you have don't have Market set to automatically add the app icon to your home screen, you can install Nova Launcher and use that to launch the Market and/or TB.

It has been fixed. Please read the OP or the entire thread.

I used the ROM that suposidly had the /sdcard fix in it. Do I still need to set permissions or something?

It hasn't been entirely fixed. There are still issues when downloading apps from the market that want to get pushed onto the SD card.

EDIT: Managed to CHMOD but the OS still crashes if I look at the apps or storage settings.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] loki154:
/system has to be mounted as Read/write. there's a button on root explorer for it or you can mount /system through adb.

Cant Open Kindle on Computer

When I go to open the Fire and view the files on my computer it says application not found. I thought I saw this discussed somewhere, but I looked for an hour and couldn't find it. Help!?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] palmheel:
A bit confused. Install ICS without problems, played with it for awhile. Decided to checked files, Windows XP recognizes the drive but I cannot open, I attached my wife's stock Kindle Fire and have no problems opening the removable drive and reading files. Drivers check OK on both instances under hardware devices. I moved files to install ICS the same way, the removable drive in my case E:, under MY Computer and drag .zip files there.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
You need a special app for mounting ICS as a removable drive. Should be included with the ROM, it's called "USB Mass Storage"

Should I use cm9_02_02.zip over USBWOOT.zip?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jfb9301:
usbwoot has a better kernel and one or two fixes that cm9_02_02 doesn't. cm9_02_02 has fixed USB, so you don't have to perform a workaround when you unmount USB. I'm using 02_02, and it works well. Really no major difference between the two. They are both based on JC's source, but nind fixed the USB issues and released a build with the fix.

The decision is yours, speed or working USB.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Jessical:

I mount my kindle fire through TWRP or USBWOOT to my Archlinux.Then I got the Chinese file names like this:

These files are created since I have flashed the ics roms.

My desktop works well with my kindle fire original rom &&GT-i9000 && desire && GT-i9100 And other usb disk.

I found that ,the linux system mount vfat disk with the "utf8" options.

I remount the ics kindle fire SDCARD without "-o utf8",I can see the correct Chinese words.

I do not know if this is a feature of ics,or we can found some way to mount the SDCARD to the device with "utf8" options,through the "vold".

[Kindle Fire Android Development] Shahpur.Azizpour:
So if I want speed rather than USB I should go with usbwoot.zip correct? Since it uses a new kernel.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jfb9301:
When the developer of the rom makes a suggestion......

Just use cm9_02_02 for now.

There is a link to the file in the opening post of this thread, just go to page 1 and read the first post.

Did you turn USB mount on?

Once connected to the computer, the USB mount needs to be turned on:

Plug in

get notifications for USB and ADB over USB

Pull up notifications

tap on the USB notification

the USB mount will open

and there is a button at the bottom to turn usb mount on....

Just want to throw this out there for anyone that's having problems with tethering like I was. Apparently MIUI is dumb and only supports adhoc which ICS won't see. So if you're having similar issues you may be using MIUI lol. Switch it up to something a little more stock based rather than 2nd-init and that should fix you right up. It did me anyway.

Had my first SOD yesterday using the USBwoot rom, not had one before. Since then its happened a couple of times.

Ive had similar freezes on my galaxy s2 running CM7. All I do then is just wait a minute or so, then press the menu button again.

What I do with the kindle fire is press the on button a couple of times, then wait a few seconds. may be try a few times, but then it wakes up. Im thinking its just a lag issue, maybe it shuts stuff down that takes a while to wake up?

Can anyone confirm that this works, or am I talking balony! :-) It could just be a one off for me I guess!

Edit - scrap that - I was talking balony, immediately after posting, I got a SOD that I couldnt get out of!

You may install any apps required SD card by connecting your KF to your PC via USB if you are using CM9-02-02 ROM.

73e970d07822dfd0cce1a74326f945d9 cm9-02-04.zip

If you want to try this ROM please note that it has some known issues:

The only other change to cm9-02-02.zip is that i have adjusted a setting to show up bandwidth use for each app in settings (and merged cm upstream for this). It is still build on a fork of JackpotClavin device/vendor, but i have split up my repository now into a device and vendor tree. I'll check soon if there any changes left to be merged into your frameworks_base. BTW: Amazing great work from both of you, JackpotClavin and Hashcode.

Is anyone else having problems connecting to an exchange email account with cm9_02_02?

However, if I modify my username/password or the server address, I get an "Username or Password incorrect" or "Couldn't open connection to server" messages.

This rom is great otherwise, much smoother than stock.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] Buffet_of_Lies:
Open Root Explorer (or any file browser capable of changing permissions) and change the "/" folder from R/O (Read Only) to R/W (Read-Write). Then install. Your program may be uninstalled next time you reboot though. It's an SD Card mounting issue, I believe. It's been covered endless times in this thread already, though to be honest, I can't remember what the cause was.

Edit: And now that I've installed the cm9-02-04 build from nind I am getting that issue as well. Back to 1-29 for me.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
Same for me with cm9-02-04, SD card issue is back.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] nind:
Sorry, i brought the issue back and didn't notice it. As a workaround you mount your sdcard with your pc and it will install on internal memory (thank ammubarak). I will have to take a closer look at the permissions of /mnt/secure/asec when i have time (In the next weeks not much).
