Quick question , if I were to temp root this ROM using rootkeeper , would Amazon instant videos work ?

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Kindle Fire Android Development] JimCo06:
Yes, if you temp un-root instant video will work. After that if it won't let you stream a video then you will need to force close the Video app in settings. Then when you go back into Video it will work.

After a long time on ICS and JB builds, yesterday I decided to revert my KF back to a rooted stock-based ROM and Gr9 is probably the best choice. Props to the developer, this ROM is fantastic IMHO. It's fast and stable.

I do have one request for the developer. Could you give us somehow the option to make time on our KF 24 hour based, opposed to the "stock" 12 hour time?

Thank you and keep up the good work.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] paulobrien:
Hmmm, i'm surprised you can't do that. I'll check it out.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] wigsey:
Hi Paul,

Do you rate the nexus 7 as better than the KF

If so is it enough of a performance improvement to merit buying the nexus. I'm in the Uk and have always found the Modaco KF Rom really responsive but now I'm considering the nexus.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] paulobrien:
I do, yes, i'm pleased with the upgrade for sure.

P
[Kindle Fire Android Development] milanche:
Got any idea regarding 24h issue?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] paulobrien:
Displaying time in 24 hour mode option missing right?

P
[Kindle Fire Android Development] milanche:
Yes, it was never there in stock also..
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sthomas38:
It's because the Kindle Fire is not sold outside of the US so the option doesn't exist :).

I'm in Portugal, and I have 24H time format.

Just changed the local in build.prop to PT (in my case) and the time automatically showed in 24h format upon the following reboot.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] chreguh:
is there a free version available or do I have to be a Modaco member?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] fsfang2:
Go to the first page of this thread and the ROM is right there.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] chreguh:
Only 9.2 is free, for 9.3.1 you have to be Modaco Member. Or am I missing something?

Update: I was realy missing something... mixed up Amazons 6.3.1 with Gr9. So prebaked is available for free and only the kitchen is members only.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] milanche:
Yes, if I change my local to Slovenian I also get 24h, buy then I also get half of UI in Slovenian and half in English and I prefer to keep it English.. So I,m looking to change time to 24h with English UI..

No. I get it over time, and that's when all I'm doing on the Kindle Fire is reading.

I wouldn't dare open the web browser or try to play a game.

It's weird because my mother's kindle fire that runs on stock lasts longer than mine and she plays a game (Oregon Settler) non-stop. Could it be something wrong with my fire?

Gr5

Is there much difference between GR5 and GR9 ?. My wife's has GR5 installed, but I was wandering if is worth upgrading. If so, do I need to wipe system> etc.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] firered365:
GR5 is old. GR9.1 is 6.3.1, the updated version. You don't have to wipe, as it is the same ROM.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ProfEngr:
Did you consider the dual boot bootloader thread? This ROM is released in primary and alternate location formats. It'd be worth a shot. I run this one as alternate to an ICS ROM.

I am having a odd problem with the Kindle Fire using this Rom. I had to change my Google password because of a potential hacking incident. All my other devices changed over easily, but for some reason this device is not accepting the new password. I keep trying to enter it, and keep getting a google error message that I have entered the incorrect password.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] xolanir:
Send Paul a pm so that you keep confidential stuff like passwords out of the thread, and explain to him in detail what happened, and hopefully he'll have an answer. I myself am not sure where to even start. Also contact Amazon, maybe?:confused:
[Kindle Fire Android Development] maltydog:
No, when I open Play Store, it asks for the password. I know my new password,

I have changed the password on all my other devices and computers without any

problems, but for this device, when I try to put in the password, I get a message that it is

incorrect. I did send a PM to Paul, I am hoping he may have a suggestion.

I am considering doing a full data wipe on the tablet, I may do that next if I have to.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] xolanir:
The other option I would have you try is to wipe data and cache for the play store and run the initial setup again when you load the play store for the first time. Hope that helps.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] maltydog:
Didn't work. I wiped cache and Dalvik, was asked for the password again,

but not the user name. Same error message when I tried to enter the password.

Error in Kindle Book APP

Hello-

I have MoDaCo installed on my Kindle Fire. I'm using Go Launcher for displaying my apps/icons. Whenever I go into the Kindle Book App I always get an error message. It says the application is not registered. When I go into settings for the app, I tap on register but it won't do anything. The Device Name and Kindle Email say unregistered. I get error messages under the Home, On Device, Archive, and Store tabs.

If I go to the upper right corner of my device and tap on settings, go to account, it shows my device is registered.

Just looking for help.

Thanks for any help!

The battery life still amazes me...50 hrs up time and still at 80%? I rooted my Fire soon after I got it as gift quite awhile back, after a few days I went straight to an ICS custom Rom and it was nice. I had heard good things about this one but as soon as JB hit I flashed of course and battery life went straight down the tube, but the Roms themselves are nice. Eventually got fed up with the instability of JB ROMS (not the dev's fault without source.) and decided to flash the Modaco version of Kindle stock and wow...I had forgot the original beauty of this device, awesome battery life.!!! I have two android phones that I flash pretty regular so until they get a stable version of JB for this device I'm staying right here.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] :
Erad1--

Sblood86 CM7 is unbelievable for battery life... not as nice as ICS or jb as to featured...but a nice GB ROM without the amazon junk...

Of course this modaco ROM is great too... I have dual boot setup with those 2...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] notdeadyet01:
I would be using Cm7 if it wasn't for the volume level. It is way lower than stock and MoDaCo
[Kindle Fire Android Development] erad1:
Thanks for the heads up on that CM7 rom...I will check it out!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lelandfried:
Check my SIG for the JB I use. I dual boot AOKP 4.1.2 and this Modaco. I'm very very happy with AOKP, of course battery life isn't optimal, but other than that I love it.

edit build.prop so Play Store recognizes as Galaxy Tab

Hi Paul,

Back in June when the latest MoDaCo ROMs were posted, the original build.prop file was in the build and not the edited one that makes the Google Play Store see the device as a Galaxy Tab. This was a listed feature of the MoDaCo ROM, and it was desirable since the Play Store doesn't Play Nice with Amazon Kindle. This was brought up, and I think the fix was added as an option for those who could generate their own build, if they had access to the kitchen. Since this ROM is no longer in development and people probably don't want to buy a year's access to the kitchen, maybe a fixed build could be made more publicly available? If not, maybe just post the build.prop text and we can edit it ourselves.

Thanks!

Anybody have luck getting IMEIs generated for this? The IMEI Generator gets a null serial and MAC address over wifi. Can't work over USB...

Edit:

Screw wifi adb. I also noticed I couldn't get the kindle fire appearing using the adb provided. So I did the next best thing. Put all the !imei files into the adb folder and ran it from there.

( C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools )

That time it saw a serial. (No MAC, as expected) But no luck getting any IMEI App to show the number.

Well, this thread seems to be dead, but I am still using this ROM, so I hope someone will check this.

Just ran into an odd problem. I suddenly had a problem opening books in the Kindle Launcher. I would click on

on a book in the list, and then I would see the word "Kindle" as the book began to open, but it would never get

past that. So I wiped the data in the launcher under applications, and now all the books are gone, and they are

not even listed as being on the cloud. I even went into the web page "Manage your Kindle" and resent a couple of

books to my kindle, but they are still not appearing.

Alt installation question

So I've been searching this thread and other resources as much as possible but can't figure this out. I've got a Kindle Fire Gen1, I've factory reset it, have TWRP and FireFireFire both running just fine, but even after a factory reset wipe, I can't get it ironed out.

I install by just using normal "install" in TWRP using the alt ROM from the first page of this thread, and it seems to go fine, but when I try to load it, it just reboots every time. Anyone else encounter this or know a step I might be missing? Thanks!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] :
1. In TWRP wipe /data /cache /system (you can wipe dalvik too for good measure but it doesn't matter because its in cache on KF)

2. Flesh ROM

3. Reboob

You should now be OK...give it a few minutes the first boot to generate the dalvik and optimize before you can go through setup.

Edit- if you don't do a full wife before you flesh your ROM and reboob you will have nothing but broplem
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Vlasp:
Reboob lol
[Kindle Fire Android Development] nethyr:
Unfortunately this is what I've been doing. Done a complete factory reset, wiped everything plus all specific wipes (data, cache, dalvik etc) just to be safe. Then flashed the GR9-alt ROM, the exact same way I'd flash any normal ROM to the main partition (this is how you install an alt-ROM, right?) and reboobed. I've reboobed so many times that my girlfriend is getting sore. Still no luck.

I've rooted and flashed plenty before, but this is my first dual-boot alt ROM installation. Do I have the procedure right or am I missing anything? Thanks!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] :
This is not correct. You need to setup your kf for dual boot...you don't just flash a ROM you partition etc...you need to run awidad'a KFU to repartition for dual boot first. Further to wipe your alt partition before install there are special scripts to run...you do not just wipe in twrp...there is more to it than that.

Are you trying to run this as your main or alt?

Did you wipe SYSTEM (/system) with your wipes or not ?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] nethyr:
Thanks for the response! I've already used KFU to set up FFF (I should have mentioned that). I suspected that TWRP might only have visibility of the primary partition, but after searching around I was unable to find any info on what was actually needed. Do you know of a guide explaining more on this? Or are you at least able to point me towards the relevant tools? Thanks again!!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] :
OK so make sure you have FFF that is for dual boot..there are 2 versions... You will be able to hit power button a few times at boot to select alt boot

Try running this attached script in twrp and then reflssh alt ROM and let me know what happens...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] nethyr:
So I had discovered it just a few minutes before I saw your response, but you were dead on. I failed to check the readme thoroughly enough and suffered for it. Entirely my fault. Thanks for the help, successfully dual booted! :)

Google Hangouts

So, anyone manage to get the new Google Hangouts to work with this ROM? I never had Gtalk running, but now that Hangouts is a Market app, I thought it might work. After installing, it asks you to install Google Services also from Play Store, but it won't install as it conflicts with some other service on the device.

I can't get this to install the ALT ROM. Just stays stuck on the "Kindle Fire" screen when I boot into Alternate boot.

The only ALT ROMS I have tried are rooted stock. I do remember when I first got this thing brand new it sat at this screen overnight and the next morning it finally got to the first screen.

Settings Issues

I did a wipe and loaded this rom coming from CM7 and I am loving it so far, however I have found one major issues and don't understand why I am having this issue. I cannot get access to the settings from the Home screen. The only thing I can control from the status bar is the far left side, and everything on the far right I cannot access. Have I done something wrong or am I trying to access the settings the wrong way? I would be very thankful for any input at all. The main reason I need to access the settings menu is mainly Volume Control and various other features, but I have downloaded an app that allows me to swipe for volume control for temporary use. Thanks in advance.

UPDATE: Nevermind I was able to correct this issue by wiping everything including my sd card and it fixed all of my issues. I assume the problem was some lingering settings or code from CM7. However I really like this ROM a lot, thank you for putting it together.
