not my build, not my call. Though, yes it has the rotation fix as well as the systemUI.apk.

I'm testing someone else's pre-release, and he did not want it up. you might try IRC.

IMEI fix is not looking like a go on this build. The only reason I wanted IMEI fix was XDA free app. Which launches on this build, but crashes on exit, so does not seem to save settings. Crashes on edit settings too. It works for posting though.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] treUse:
Thanks, I appreciate it :)

You couldn't tell me who it was though? Really itching for a new build...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] csholmq:
I'm not following. Is the bug referring to the SoD?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
Anyone have the latest Bing APK? Can't download it from Market (says it's not available on my carrier even though the KF isn't on any carrier lol...)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jfb9301:
with wifi on, the CPU never throttles and stays at 1008 all the time. Battery life is crap. It's been plaguing several users here for a while. Proper behavior for a KF is to throttle up CPU speed when a threshold is reached and throttle back down when the demand has passed. This allows for much better battery life

Added a new rom build by sitic to the OP.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Shahpur.Azizpour:
Any idea how you can change the keyboard language on the fly? I chose German and English language in the settings but long pressing the space button doesn't provide the language selection like on my nexus s. Right now I have to manually go to the settings everytime and change the language which is a chore.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
There's a tiny little keyboard icon to the left of the notifications tray when the keyboard is open. Tap on that and select the language.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Takenover83:
For anyone wondering. Netflix still does not work in the "VideoTouch1-29" build.

Just a heads up.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Shahpur.Azizpour:
One thing I noticed is that the search started from the persistent search bar at the top has the old froyo like white background color and a strange old icon. Can you somehow revert it to the stock ics search which looked so much better and fits the overall design and color of the rest?

Also is there a way to get rid of the persistent two additional keyboard layouts? (Japan, Chinese) Don't need them and they clutter the fast language switching dialogue box...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
Ah, you're right. I'll add those to the bug list. Also, I have an updated SystemUI.apk with the stock volume icon that I'll post later (hoping it can be merged).
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rukin5197:
Install titanium backup and uninstall search. For some odd reason this build added a new search and it overwrites the old one. Make sure you uninstall the one that look like a magnifying glass and not the Google looking one. Fixed it for me :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
Updated the bug list after playing around a bit. Gotta say, this latest ROM is freaking fantastic. Only thing I see left is the hardware video decoding (and then some more minor annoyance things like Sod).

JackpotClavin, can you please use this SystemUI.apk in your ROM? It's exactly the same, but the icon for the sound slider is the one from ICS's settings menu.

By the way, if anyone's got more games/apps that crash or freeze let me know, I'm keeping a list of the apps that don't work in the bug list now, even though they might not be exactly related.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rukin5197:
Haven't tested this build yet, but I couldn't for the life of me get gta 3 working. Just a black screen. Food for thought :)

Edit: working in this build. Yay!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rukin5197:
Also, noticed this for a while, but never complained. When I go to use black hole live wallpaper (my favorite) it only works in the mode I'm in. For example: if I set it in landscape, it will be half cut off in portrait. Or vise versa
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
Known issue.

Might be a dumb question, but is there a way to add the CM7 screen-off animation to this? Doesn't have to be to the main build, if there's an apk I can add for myself thatd be awesome.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] mattb3:
Does anyone else have issues with flash? I can't get any flash based site video or otherwise to work. I've tried the obvious things like reinstall flash, check browser settings, etc. I haven't seen any other complaints so I feel like its something I'm doing.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] fleton:
It is a known issue, hopefully will be fixed soon.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rukin5197:
Built into the cm7 framework :( hopefully cm9 gets it offocoally
[Kindle Fire Android Development] luniz7:
I messed around with the vold.fstab to see if I could get sdcard to mount but had no luck
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
That is a known issue, I'll put it on the bug list in the morning.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] mattpannella:
why is the file so big for the 1-29 build?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] itsDefying:
Ahhh. This is great! This latest build feels almost like its ready for daily use. :D
[Kindle Fire Android Development] masterchiefb117:
I was thinking the same thing. I just finished downloading and about to flash. My question, can I flash over my current state or do I have to factory reset and then flash?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] marty331:
I just flashed right over the current build, don't forget the gapps also.

And it does feel really snappy!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] eclass82:
I have flashed ROMS over 15 times!! is there a limit/limitations to how many time the flash ROM can handle wiping / flashing..
[Kindle Fire Android Development] tjrocks91:
The latest build is just running so well, auto rotate looks nice now and stuff just seems to be moving a bit smoother!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] yumcax:
If the creator says it can be flashed w/o wiping, and you wipe cash/dalvik, you should be in the clear. If you start having problems of course you should do a full wipe.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] eclass82:
Regardless I always do full wipes and reloads, every time I do this I feel I get the best experience possible

PS: Thanks for the latest ROM its currently Downloading, Cant wait! great job guys!!!!!!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] masterchiefb117:
Yeah just finished flashing over current build. Seems faster and responsive. Didn't have to flash happened because they were on current build so all I did was flash latest build and wipe cache. Gonna test for the next few hours and flash again to the rest of my kindles.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] MrBrady:
Is Plex working yet in the latest release (1/30)?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] masterchiefb117:
I hear that. I've been using my kindles as dailys since last build. Little by little its starting to take form. Looking awesome.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] eclass82:
Not sure, Ill let you know in a while but I doubt it will work since video is still not 100% working yet..
[Kindle Fire Android Development] dnd61:
Music app freeze my Fire when I use back button.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] uoY_redruM:
I keep seeing reference to 1/30 build but op lists 1/29. Same build?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] iluretar:
/system/xbin went from 4mb to 95mb, don't know why, maybe someone could answer this better.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] eclass82:
Is Rom Manager (Clockworkmod) really needed on the kindle when we use TWRP anyways??

Just a thought...:rolleyes:
[Kindle Fire Android Development] foxdog66:
This rom is is built from CyanogenMod's source and the dev of rom manager/clockwork is part of the cm team. There is a alternative to twrp that is clockwork based and with a little tweaking works flawlessly with rom manager on this rom :D
[Kindle Fire Android Development] mattpannella:
oh wow yeah. I just looked in there, like every Linux command is in there now

is most of that really necessary or useful?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Takenover83:
Rom Manager.... Dev team self promotion IMO... I don't use it. Don't need it. I come to these forums for my roms. Not to mention Rom manager has been known to cause some headaches for more then a few people.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] omgz:
Downloading now. Thank you devs for all the hard work. :D
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DJLamontagneIII:
Anyone get Ravens kernel to work on this new build i cant seem to get it to work just fc everything
[Kindle Fire Android Development] foxdog66:
I'm not really sure I follow what your saying... I was just simply saying why its in the rom. It does not even work out of the box. I won't lie, I've had my issues with it with other devices as well.

At lease you can uninstall it without causing any other problems unlike a lot of manufacturer's bloatware.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Takenover83:
Not follow? I will make it simple. IMO, it has no place in any CM rom. If you can't flash a rom without it, then maybe you should not be flashing roms.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] masterchiefb117:
I can't get ravens to work either gonna try the other one
[Kindle Fire Android Development] dino1342:
So is the market now opt for tablets now
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sidriel:
Just found the Settings -> Interface -> System tweaks. Gonna have to play with these.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] foxdog66:
Its mostly all phone specific or place holder's. There is some proformance stuff near the bottom tho :D
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jbg1:
Any help? Or anyone else? the last build worked great for me

Edit: after reading so these might be bugs then i played fruit ninja, hit home, opened minecraft and accidentally hit the multitask button that was my first freeze, second after reflash i loaded up a ytube video watched a bit left and it froze... Just posting incase anyone is having the same problems or if they need to go in the bug report
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rukin5197:
+1. I'm getting really bad freezes that need force reboot
[Kindle Fire Android Development] JoshuaLintag:
Is this available for daily use?

I'm just going to wait for bluetooth before im going to flash this.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Shahpur.Azizpour:
sounds good. do i have to have titanium paid version for this?

i also got some general understanding questions:

i didn't wipe anything and just flashed the latest rom over the last one. Is it recommended to wipe cache + dalvik cache on each update? If yes, does wiping cache mean that i will lose all of my app and homescreen setup and have to start from scratch?

And i also didn't flash the gapps.zip again, as it was mentioned in this thread. But all google apps do work as before. So is there any reason to reflash gapps.zip after making an rom update?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rukin5197:
It is recommended to wipe dalvik and cache when coming from an earlier build, but I don't think it is totally needed. And wiping data and system are the ones that are going to wipe your apps and basically everything else.

I didn't flash gapps in this build either, and everything still seems to be working. I'm guessing its recommended because it might've had an update
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Shahpur.Azizpour:
A little addition:

Google Maps hard crashes/freezes after about a minute of usage, only rebooting the fire by holding the power button to force reboot helps. Couldn't find a specific pattern which causes the crash. It happenend once when i was scrolling the map and another time when i was calculating a route.

This was also true for the last build. Didn't find gmaps issue on the bugs list, maybe this is already a known issue.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] cruel91:
Still far away for bluetooth honestly :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DeerSteak:
Thanks to whoever built the ROM wiht all the fixes, I'll give it a go.

Up until then I'd been reading up on how to build my own copy from source, and I can't figure oen thing out - is it really ONLY possible to build from Linux? Can I build on my Mac running 10.7.2?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] scarsofthumper:
I've had it happen to me. It was the same freeze up as if I was playing certain games, so maybe it could be a hardware decoding issue?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] nind:
OK, this is still and while be for a long time a ROM for Developers, the CM guys say when someone keeps asking them "when is it ready?" july. If you want a rom for daily use in the sense of everything works, run smooth, don't crashes and looks nice try some other rom, not this.

Some notes on the last version:

The market thing is not yet fixed in source (only in the .zip), tried it yesterday and it didn't work on first attempt, will look at it when i have some spare time (not much these days). I also removed the camera.*.so to try the gtalk fix and see if it has any adverse effect, it's also not yet fixed in source code. Parts of the lockscreen (the volume on/off) has to be modified outside the device/systemUI tree so i didn't pushed it to github, want to write some code to let the user modify the lockscreen (won't happen in the next weeks).

In regard to the increase of the file size: It shouldn't be that big, didn't notice it. Maybe it is because it didn't make a clean compile, will check it when i get back to my building machine. To the search bar: don't know how the old one got in there, will check it.

To the freeze issue (app independent): You don't have to actually reboot the device, just wait for like 2 minutes, the booting animation will appear hand for some seconds and you will give you the login screen (all apps have been closed, just like forced reboot). Does someone have a logcat of the freezing?

Yes, look at the notes on the github readme, you need XCode 3 at the moment or wait until this gets merged to build with XCode 4.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DeerSteak:
roxorz. Seems like I'm stuck on building myself right now, because from what I've read Xcode 3 isn't compatible with Lion. In the meantime I'll try to break the "official" build.

edit: holy cats, it's like almost 2x as big as the last release. O_o
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Buffet_of_Lies:
Has anyone else had it freeze up after choosing Power Off after a long-press on the power button? It seemed to power down but left the backlight on. Had to do the 20 second power button hold to restart the thing.

I also have gotten a graphics/screen glitch occasionally where about 1/3 of the screen gets flickery when you exit to the launcher desktop but that goes away (usually) when you change screens again. Did that on the last build too a couple times.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] marty331:
Or you could install Ubuntu in a virtualbox and build it there. I would recommend 10.10.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Trigg_S:
This latest build had some random freezes and Wifi connectivity issues. Going back to video20.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Jessical:
The reports of crashes are scaring me, so I'll wait to install the update until after my class tonight.

I think we have a long while until Bluetooth is enabled as there's a slim chance to begin with. Maybe as far as being something that doesn't show up until the next model comes out.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Icetech3:
This build has fixed all my wifi and lockup issues:) soooo happy... also not draining my battery bad with wifi left on now.. 1-20 was just killing it fast:)

P.S. i did a full wipe including formatting my sdcard so everything was nice and clean..
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DJLamontagneIII:
I did a full wipe also and not having any of the freezing issues others are
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DeerSteak:
I had *a* freeze trying to play a Youtube video in HD, but that was my own stupidity. I did a full wipe (as I was running CM7) and restored my apps via TiBackup, and so far so good.

It's incredible how polished CM9 is looking already, considering source for ICS hasn't been available very long at all. Since I don't make a habit of watching Netflix or Youtube on the device, I think I'm going to move to CM9 permanently assuming I'm able to get the SOD issues I had before under control.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] namurt:
are you using the stock cm9 kernel or a custom kernel such as 0xD34D or IntersectRaven?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Trigg_S:
Wiped Dalvik and all the caches, wifi is now working.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] willg_smith:
I successfully installed and everything was working fine. I set everything up and got some appear and it was a great rom. But my sister turned it off and she gave it back to me because she somehow got it into the recovery. I just rebooted it and everything was gone, like it was restored. The rom was still present though. She claimed she ddidn't do anything on the recovery... Is there like a bug or something that can cause this??
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Buffet_of_Lies:
I flashed it over an intersectRaven kernel I was running the previous build on. Am I right to assume this build would have replaced the custom kernel when I flashed it? I had to manually reset the CPU governor settings when I rebooted and they were back to 1 Ghz Max so I assume this to be the case. I actually flashed it over the Fire Zone build which is based on JC`s build but I don't see that being much different. Aside from the odd glitch and hiccup here & there this build seems smoother than the latter one. I like the screen lock fix.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Buffet_of_Lies:
There is, in fact. The fix is pretty simple. Don't loan your kindle fire running a developer build to your sister. ;)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] willg_smith:
Hehehehe.. I originally did this for my mom because she hated it because it didn't have the market and she didn't like the setup of it. :/
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Cholo981:
Great work.

Even battery drain is really high.

It's me or the wifi sunspension doesn't properly works?

On the battery stat:

Screen turned on: 3.54

Wifi: 13.40
[Kindle Fire Android Development] duquesa:
I've installed every version of the rom from the beginning and have never had any problems but after doing a full wipe and update of both the rom and gapps today im getting problems with the market each time I try to install an app I get Error package file invalid

Any one know why?

I've re wiped and reinstalled but still the same Error :confused:
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Shahpur.Azizpour:
Hmm I just did that. I uninstalled the app with the magnifiying glass but now I have no search at all ... how can I restore the ics search?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rukin5197:
Here you go. Just move into system/app through a file manager or adb push to system/app.

This is also for all people who my guide to get stock search back didn't work..

Also make sure you change permissions to rw-r--r--. Don't know what number that is :P

Edit: chmod 644 :)

Found out something at school today. When you're running chainfire nvidia plugin, gta 3 won't work. Just give you a black screen. So only solution would be to uninstall either gta 3 or the chainfire plugin
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rmagruder:
Okay, hopefully not a dumb question.

Is it possible at all to get back anything 'amazon' while running this rom? Specifically, I'd like my Kindle Fire to be recognized as such by Amazon. I've restored the Amazon stuff from my Titanium Backup, but the ADCP (Amazon Device Client Platform) just gives me "Unfortunately, Amazon Device Client Platform (ADCP) has stopped" randomly. I'm thinking I'm going to have to yank it, and I'm guessing this means no Kindle Lending library, or native Kindle Store App?

Is it impossible to have my cake and eat it too? I'll stick with ICS if it isn't...but I can't help but wonder.

Randy
[Kindle Fire Android Development] damianarnold:
Unfortunately no :(

One of the main reasons why I end up going back to a stock derived ROM, as much as I like a 'new play thing' the draw of the content brings me back.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Shahpur.Azizpour:
this did work but in landscape the search box only has the width for a phone. Half of the screen doesn't look right..
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rukin5197:
That's how its always looked for me...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Shahpur.Azizpour:
ok maybe I just got it mixed up. The right half seems to be reserved for suggestions for apps, contacts and so on...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
It's probalby impossible to get the best of both worlds, but we can certainly try. Here's a list of Amazon Apps that should cover most of the stuff on the stock ROM:

Amazon MP3

Amazon Kindle

Amazon Mobile

Amazon Appstore

Amazon Video (Tested, doesn't work on this ROM, but it might have something to do with HW video decoding, not sure...)

I use the Appstore and Kindle every day, they work very well. I haven't used any of the other stuff, but I'm sure Mobile and MP3 work just fine.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] -FuRBz-:
would OTA RootKeeper work?

https://market.android.com/details?id=org.projectvoodoo.otarootkeeper
[Kindle Fire Android Development] phatboypat:
Yes it does.

I have installed Amazon video on this rom, but I can't get video's to play. I get a force close every time I try.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] namurt:
i asked about your kernel only because i know some folks running 0xD34D's kernel were having the issue you described, that is the screen doesn't go fully dark when you power off the kindle. (see this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21492919&postcount=86)

i don't think flashing a rom over an existing kernel will replace the kernel. not unless you wiped data and system. to be sure though, just go into Settings -> About tablet and see what it says under your kernel version.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] philwaud:
Everything working fine

Just flashed the new rom (29th) - as always went very smoothly. Took 20 minutes to download, in the meantime, I backed up the Apex launcher settings, booted into TWRP, factory reset, wiped cache and dalvik the mounted the USB.

Once Id copied across the new ROM and the new Gapps, I flashed both, then the apex launcher (I replaced trebuchet in the trebuchet zip - I know its the right way but it works!)

Set up a new two setp authentication google password, and booted to the new rom. Five minutes later Id syncd everything (although quite a few apps didnt automatically install this time, had to go into the market and add them)

I restored the Apex settings - it added everything, but didnt restore my widgets.

This ROM gets better and better! new lock screen working, video and sound working, animated rotation of screen working (yah!) Its been my daily rom for a few weeks now and its everything I need!

many thanks devs! Awesome!

Phil:D
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rukin5197:
Finally decided to go with something non-ics ish. Look what I've done :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Buffet_of_Lies:
It says: Kernel version 2.6.35.7+ ubuntu@ip-10-174-42-153 #1

Does the plus sign indicate that I may still be using a modified kernel? It doesn't go up to 1.2 Ghz like it used to when I look in SetCPUs settings... nor in any of the several other places I see cpu governors sprinkled throughout the system. So I am inclined to feel it isn't an old one. In fact, the presence of boot.img in the zips seems to indicate to me that it is, in fact, replacing, the kernel.

I was running the 0xD34D (damn him for having that silly name... Cult of the Dead Cow reference perhaps?) kernel, but that was weeks ago... and on CM7.

I don't think my black screen was anything serious really... I wipe cache/dalvik but not the entire system. I also burn incense and candles while sitting in a pentacle and chanting the proper incantations while flashing custom ROMs.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DJLamontagneIII:
Thanks i was looking for this :D
