No dice for me on Inc2 with CM9 Kang. I only tried the browser

btw - the permissions in the lib folder don't really need to be changed. If all you're doing is removing permissions, then it should be fine as is.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] emgator:
The browser works well on my SGS4G running 2.3.6. Amazon Video loads fine, but most of the text is cut off or doesn't flow correctly within the selection boxes. I am unable to access my Amazon videos, as Amazon is not listed as an "Add Account" choice under "Accounts and Sync". Attempted video purchases deliver the following message:

"Your device is no longer configured correctly to play Amazon videos ..."

I also attempted to install this on my LG G-Slate running 3.1. The browser FCs before it loads and Amazon video exhibits the same problems listed above, minus the text flow issues.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Beejis:
I don't see anything there related to loggin in to Amazon. Did I possibly miss a step? I moved the libs and changed permissions, installed all apks and even moved the silk apk to data/apps and changed its permissions then rebooted.

The browser and video app open fine, and nothing force closes.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] BossNexusS:
Wish i read that before i tried.. LOL

but atleast i can say it is confirmed not working...................... LOL

Hm, that's weird. I didn't install the apk but it showed up. Going to install ICS to get Silk running on ICS.

Doesn't seem to work on my view. Maybe I did something wrong. Hmm.

Probably because its honeycomb.

Hm, It should work. Sadly I don't have a honeycomb device so I won't be able to try to bug test it.

Expect a ICS release soon...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] puneet_champ:
For those getting FCs on HP Touchpad!

For those getting force closes on HP touchpad and other devices , try this out..

The issue is that it is expecting a permission for the browser app (android.permission.PREVENT_POWER_KEY) which is not there.

I added the permission in the cloud9 browser apk and repackaged it. It works on my HP Touchpad with XRON 2.8.

Find the repackaged apk at:

http://bit.ly/cloud9browser

Install it like before and reboot.

Hope it works :)

[Kindle Fire Android Development] FlagshipX:
I don't get why Amazon just doesn't release the rest of their apps. It's what makes Fire look special but the money comes from the services provided anyways; Not silk or VOD apps. I reckon soon they will be available though. Make people Amazon Appstore reliant. That way you get folks hooked on your store and you get your app cut (from sales). The browser seems tits though. I'm currently switch back and forth between Opera and Dolphin Mini.

Also, is it me? I've always been able to watch Amazon movies through the browsers. A app would offer a smoother experience but I'm not starving.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] Misune:
Anyone want to help with the ICS port? I was going off of that I could just find some of the files that ICS was missing from CM7 but so far no luck.

Also for anyone who is with zdnet and thinks this is illegal then you should pull up a chair. The reason this is legal is because amazon put the update file unencryped on their server. It's not like you can only get these files from a Physical Kindle Fire. Basically anyone could get these files. The best part of all, you don't even need to log into amazon to validate that you actually own the device. Also Amazon must know this port is out there with this thread almost at 30k views and I have heard nothing from them.

I hope this clears up any confusion.

PS: I might have a surprise for you in the next couple of days. :D

Rezound Works

Great job on this! I don't know enough to help in the actual development, but I'll provide a report:

The browser works on my Rezound running a very slightly modified stock ROM (BAMF 1.01). The menu and navigation bars are XL, and the address bar is XS, but everything is working. The overall function is great, it really is the smoothest I've used on Android.

The video app opens and navigates, but there is no way to sign in or authenticate my account. Which is a huge bummer since I'm a prime member.

If anyone plans on taking this forward, resizing the browser would be sweet since I think it could potentially end up being one of the best based on my time playing with it.

As for Amazon Video, it would be cool if it could be hacked.... but I think my next stop is over to Amazon customer service asking why they don't just develop it for the market!

Again, very cool project and thanks!:D

[Kindle Fire Android Development] dormido:
I dunno how accurate this is since I don't have a KF to test against, but whatsmyuseragent.com reports "Silk-Accelerated=False"

I've been testing this on XRON 2.9.1 on my Touchpad and while I like the UI layout of the browser, it doesn't present any "browsing" benefits over Dolphin or Opera without actually being connected to the Amazon cloud. I'm not bashing the work because what you've done is pretty amazing. Thanks and keep it up.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Matt V:
For those with CM7 and a modified build.prop I got the version posted a few posts back to work for me! Thanks a lot, I love this browser.

I would recommend wiping your cache after the initial reboot.

I'm running CM7 and Amazon doesn't show up under Accounts & Sync.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] IDisposable:
Running on Samsung Galaxy S 4G (SGS4G) under 2.3.6 and (bhundven 0.1 kernel) the browser itself runs fine.

Installing the Amazon Video application gives an FC at boot up and every time I try to run it.

In Settings/Accounts & Sync, I do NOT see an option for Amazon account.

After testing, I deleted the other two other APK files but left all of the lib/*.so files.

Browser seems to run fine but DOES NOT honor the open-intents for YouTube, etc. [e.g. if you open a YouTube video URL in the regular web browser, it asks you if you would like to complete the action with Web (browser) or YouTube (app)]. I suspect this is not a porting issue, rather it's a design/implementation flaw in the the Amazon browser.

Probably not likely to become your default browser. The top and bottom bars take up a lot of space on a phone. If you have a tablet, you may want to give it a run. I found it to be much smoother in the scrolling and zooming than anything else I've tried.

amazon account added but AVOD returns with error

Hi,

Another Nook Color failure

I tried this on my nooted NC running 1.4.1 with no luck. Here's what I did (using the original posted version):

Copied LIB files as directed, adjust permissions to rw-r--r--

Tried installing APKs via wireless ADB, but got an error: [INSTALL_FAILED_OLDER_SDK]

So I edited build.prop so SDK version = 10 (was 8) and rebooted

Reconnected via ADB wireless and installed the APKs

One didn't work: "account and sync settings", getting an error about it already being installed. May be a naming duplication issue?

Copied the com.amazon.cloud9-1.apk from /data/app to /system/app

Rebooted

I have the icon for the browser, but I just get a gray screen for a second and then it disappears and it goes to the HOME screen.

=== UPDATE ===

Got new version of package - was unable to load new

version of Cloud9 because it says already exists. Tried

uninstalling on NC but fails. Manually deleted the APKs,

uninstall and reinstall still fail.

Installed "App Remover" from Amazon Market and used it to uninstall the "My account and settings", which allowed me to install the version included with the silk package.

I don't know if it's related, but now my android market doesn't work. It just closes.

Still am unable to completely uninstall the Cloud9 app. The icon shows up in my apps screen and uninstall from there fails.

ADB uninstall and -r install fail.

App Remover doesn't list it as installed.

Going into the app info in NC Tools all the buttons are inactive, so I can uninstall it from there either.

I deleted the APK files using root explorer, but no luck.

====

So this process screwed me up pretty bad. Can't read books or shop, or anything requiring my account info I guess. :(

Has anyone managed to get the stock Kindle app from the KF working with CM7? I'd like to use the stock app since the books render differently on the KF than the Kindle app for Android (both from market and amzn appstore).

The install of the KindleForOtter.apk from the stock ROM worked but when I launch the app, it takes me to the Add Amazon account page and which point I'm stuck with unable to register when trying to log in with my credentials.

Also, Amazon Video isn't working for me. Unknown error during login. Seems like the reason is the registration as well.

I've done exactly the same, but I can't get it running. I'm on the Neutrino 1.4-s GT+ rom. I set permissions and moved files using Rom Toolbox. I and installed all the APK's apart from the sync one, due to the warning about replacing the existing file.

I think I will be un-installing, as it looks like a browser with a dark skin.

Anyone concerned about all the permissions these need?

[Kindle Fire Android Development] Misune:
Hello everyone! Sadly this is my last effort in this port, but before I do leave I'll leave you with a Windows installer. Check the OP for the download but read this post first.

!!!I suggest you have a way into fastboot/recovery before doing this!!!

Requirements: Just need the adb drivers

Steps:

1. Download and Plug Device In.

2. Open.

3. Click Install Silk Port.

3. Wait for at most 2 minutes. It's a long process and It might take a minute.

4. Your device will reboot and you will have Silk Installed.

Please PM me if you have any errors.

Note: This is a Beta. Just a few things will be added but it safe to use.

Thanks for the port. Installed fine on my Nook running Kangs cm7.

Silk appears to load pages just a tad quicker than dolphin and opera, but it feels more sluggish than opera-about the same as dolphin. Panning up and down, zomming in and out felt much better on opera mobile.

Silk is probably best suited for higher performing devices wiht dual cores which the NC lacks.

Google Search Broke

This installed perfectly on my Nook Color running Phiremod 7.1 (CM7.1).

Had problems with the first install with FCs on browser (before updated apk's were posted).

With updated version, wasn't able to install, but this windows version worked out perfectly.

Only problem I have now is that when I try to search from the address bar I just get sent to the Google Homepage (all searches start off looking good then suddenly redirect and send me to: www.google.com/webhp?hl=en-US)

When switching default search engine to Bing or Yahoo, everything works fine "(/search?q=" populates correctly).

I really want this to be my default browser, but this little bug is quite annoying. Even checked my hosts files, reinstalled multiple times and not sure why this is happening.
