stock w/ root

edit: anyone?i have 2 markets showing up in my app drawer, which one can I remove? and how should i go about doing that?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] italysfinest327:
if i wanted to disguise my stock KF as a galaxy what files would need to be transferred over from this rom? I tried moving the build.prop but still dont have full market access
[Kindle Fire Android Development] 88five-oh:
Man this rom is amazing! So convenient to have the market and everything ready to go.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] eclass82:
Thank You! I'm going to install this instead of CM7 until ICS video/audio setting are patched up.. Great Work by the way.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jbdan:
Thank you Paul my wife is happy I used this for her KF!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] paulobrien:
I will update this to 6.2.2 shortly.

If you use a 3rd party launcher, you can uninstall the MoDaCo Market Launcher app.

I will be making one of my usual online kitchens, so if you're a MoDaCo Ad Free / Plus member you'll be able to use that. Of course, i'll still have the prebake too.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] withoutname90:
Is not possible to select it from the list of available keyboard..

Hi,

thx very much for your rom, is the best!

Is possible remove/hide the default button savior bar and use an alternative one from market for the next release?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] CTTKDKing:
Just thought I'd mention that they got Audio working on one of the ICS Roms, so it's coming. :D

That said, this is a great ROM. Keep up the good work.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jbdan:
So a wipe cache and wipe dalvik is cool coming from gr3? Please don't stone me for asking :D
[Kindle Fire Android Development] withoutname90:
I follow your procedure and it worked fine.. :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DeerSteak:
Having a hard time downloading via the Fire. Tried Dolphin HD which downloads a 320 byte file. Tried the Amazon Silk browser, which errors out trying to show the Captcha. So i guess I'll try it when I get home - looking forward to it. :)

edit: after updating flash player, the Silk browser has the same problem wit the 320 byte file that Dolphin HD does. Meh. Will still update when I get home.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jbdan:
Wow gr4 is super snappy! Thx for the update much appreciated
[Kindle Fire Android Development] paulobrien:
No wipes required.

The install doesn't use cache, and the system is smart enough to update dalvik-cache as required. Supposedly. ;)

P
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ygvuhb:
backup the whole system first

install swype keyboard apk

use Root Explorer to copy the keyboard .apk file from /data/app to /system/app

under system/app

change the kindle fire ime to .bak for backup(forget the apk name)

rename swype apk name as kindle fire ime .apk name

restart kindle fire

it should change to swype keyboard

if you want to switch the keyboard back stock keyboard

flash pual's rom again no need wipe

select the keyboard by pressing and holding at any text input box

then it can change back

under old method

just paste the apk to system and reboot

then we can change the keyboard

but since 6.2.1 seem need to replace the stock keyboard apk, don't know why

[Kindle Fire Android Development] worldwidepmp:
This new update wiped out my Bank of America app. I can't re-install it in the market, something about libraries.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] webstas:
Is there a mirror?

The file was deleted, i can mirror it if someone wants to share the file.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] paulobrien:
Link still OK for me? Please don't mirror (this prevents me tracking downloads).

P
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Scaevola:
I installed it successfully over rooted stock 6.2.2 with wipe cache/dalvik only.

Everything is ok, but I still can't see all apps in the market. My device is still identified as Kindle. What am I missing?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] worldwidepmp:
After doing a clean install the market is not showing all the apps
[Kindle Fire Android Development] paulobrien:
Could you give me an example of an app that's not appearing? I can then investigate.

The Market will still identify the device as a Kindle by name.

P
[Kindle Fire Android Development] B3L13V3:
How about asphalt 6 HD or backstab HD I can't see those...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] paulobrien:
Found the Market issue will fix with a Gr5 release tomorrow which will also bring other cool improvements. :-)

[Kindle Fire Android Development] ktdt00:
Tried flashing over gr2 with wipe of cache/dalvik. Appeared to install fine but when rebooting it hung on Kindle Fire screen. I waited about 15 minutes. I checked MD5 to ensure a good d/l. I then did a twrp restore and tried again. Same result.

Thoughts?

TIA/ktdt00
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lordsofletterbox:
I can't see GTA 3 as well as a few other apps..something is different with the build.prop or something.

Nevermind: I seen you post about GR5 and I can't wait to get that update. Thanks once again for you work.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] toystory:
Being an new kindle fire owner, very thanks for all of your effort and which can make me to have a very useful tablet at that price

Once again thanks for it!!!!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DeerSteak:
GTA3 is supposedly Tegra2 only, from what I can tell.

I'm getting a TON of screen tearing in the launcher on Gr4. I didn't ever use Gr3 but I never saw anything like this on Gr2.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lordsofletterbox:
No its not Tegra 2 only, I ran it perfectly on the fire using CM7, and with GR3. I had booted it with GR4 but didn't get a chance to play it. I uninstalled it temporally to make space, but went to download it again and it wasn't appearing in the market due to the build.prop not being updated when GR4 released. I think everything will work just fine once paulobrian uploads GR5 in the morning. We shall see. I could probably edit the build.prop file myself but I can wait a few hours longer.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DeerSteak:
Misremembered then, my bad
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lordsofletterbox:
Not a problem sir, thanks anyway.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] paulobrien:
Yes, it will work with clockworkmod.

P
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Gam3r 4 Life:
I had just finished flashing it when I got your response. Testing now. Thank you for your work.

Working perfect. Wiped cache, able to keep all my apps. I was at rooted stock 6.2.1 with twrp yesterday, and while I was playing around with my Fire it rebooted and installed OTA 6.2.2, lost root and twrp. So after a lot of reading and work I was able to get rerooted, with CWM recovery. In hopes of never getting another forced OTA I removed otacerts.zip and otasilentinstall.apk. Now with your custom rom and those files removed Im hoping amazon wont be able to tamper with my Fire anymore!!

PS: So happy, I was able to get HULU working by using this Rom. I had paid for the app flash video browser and was using it on my EVO 3D, and my EVO View. But when I looked for it on my Fire it was not compatible. I tried to side load it but that didnt work. But because of this Rom posing as a Samsung Galaxy Tab it was now available. And it works perfect. This was the last thing on my "figure out" list. So again, THANK YOU!

do you use google analytics or an internal FileSonic counter?

I could setup a download tracker to work in conjunction with google analytics

if not, can you switch to a site that doesn't use extreme captcha and simultaneous download restrictions :) i had a hell of a time downloading GR4 yesterday.

LOVE the ROM by the way.

Thanks for your hard work.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] johnsaldivar:
Is there a way to test if my market is open while masquerading as Galaxy Tab... when I do a search for an app like facebook. I still dont see it, thanks for any info
[Kindle Fire Android Development] loughary:
Did you clear the Cache for Google Market? If not go to settings/applications choose filter by All Applications click on Market click clear Cache and try the market again.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] johnsaldivar:
Thanks worked like a charm.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DeerSteak:
I have cleared cache and data for the market, and there are still some very common apps that don't show up for me (and the Market website shows as incompatible). The official Twitter app, for example, and pretty much any Twitter app anybody uses other than Seesmic (no Tweetcaster or Tweetdeck, for example). Only the paid version of Solitaire Deluxe (by MobileDeluxe) is listed as compatible (the free version is not). That last bit is definitely a step up over stock, which showed neither version of Solitaire Deluxe as compatible, but it's still a little strange.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] loughary:
Interesting...I just checked and with Gr5 I'm able to download all the Twitter apps you referenced via Android Market..not sure why you're having problems.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DeerSteak:
Well that's rather reassuring actually, because it means that it's particular to my device. I came from Gr4. I'll ponder on this one a bit and see what i can get going.

edit: I had previously cleared the cache, but this time I decided to clear all data. I also had two different apps called Market with Android market logos, but one was only 52kb and had a slightly different-looking shopping bag. Uninstalled that along with clearing all data on the "big" market app and now they're there. Thanks!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] johnsaldivar:
I think this was talked about in a thread a while back.. is there a way to stop amazon store from being the default market when it directs you for and update... I thought the fix was removing amazon app store but not sure anymore.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Gam3r 4 Life:
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I dont know therefore I ask. What is the Gr for in the name? People saying they were on Gr4, etc. Is that just the version name? And if so what does it stand for? Thanks

This is probably a really dumb question but I installed this using TWRP but I can't find the market anywhere.

Where can i find it. It just seems like the stock 6.2.2 Rom (I downloaded GR4)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Puma81:
Its under apps at the top of kindle launcher.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Scaevola:
Same here. Clearing cache didn't work, but after clearing data, it's working perfectly.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] uoY_redruM:
OK, so I've been using this since last night and everything seems great.

Only issues I'm having...

I'm using ADW Launcher EX. When I try to change the wallpaper, it lets me crop the image, but then the wallpaper does not change. I can select a live wallpaper and it works, but as soon as I click the power button or it goes to sleep naturally, the wallpaper resets to a Kindle wallpaper. I cannot get it to stick (I tried clicking "lock" with no success).

Another thing, which isn't an issue so much as I'm hoping for a solution. I downloaded Sygic navigation (which has the maps downloaded to the card so it does not need internet access) but naturally it still looks for GPS. Is there a way to avoid this? Or another navigation app that works on the Kindle?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] wigsey:
Will this stop ota updates from amazon or do I need to take other action.

Great Rom though much better than cm7 where the icons are too small.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] krelvinaz:
It will not stop OTA updates from happening.

The only solutions for that appear to be one of

o removing the certs file from system/etc/security

o not having your device registered

o using a nonstock ROM like CM7
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Scaevola:
There was a thread about the network location. There is a way to activate the network location services by installing Gapps network location provider and modifying the framework-res file.

Would it be possible to include the modified framework-res file in this mod to be able to activate network based location?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] wigsey:
Any idea how I do this. I'm a bit concerned about messing with system files.

Easy instructions would be appreciated
[Kindle Fire Android Development] uoY_redruM:
Awesome, thanks.

+1 to adding the network location hack then.

Edit- I've pulled com.android.location.provider.jar from my N1. I'm going to pull it over to my computer and look it over to see if I can do something. I've never worked with jar files, so its a long shot.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Scaevola:
This is the main thread about Network Location.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1414582

Some people were able to use network location right away with the installation of the networklocation.apk, but for some, including me, this solution didn't work.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ktdt00:
ADW Ex won't change the wallpaper. You have to use another image viewer that has the "set wallpaper" functionality. I use ES Explorer which has an image viewer built-in that will do it.

After you get it changed you can use the KF Utility (usually in the first 5 posts in this forum) to make it stick.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] uoY_redruM:
I pulled NetworkLocation.apk from my N1, moved it and set permissions to my KF and Sygic loaded! (prior it would FC as soon as I tried to use it). It tries to find GPS signal though, so I'm unable to navigate. Google Maps white bar popped up when clicking the "my location" button. Hmmm.

In other news Paul's latest tweet states he's been banned from xda over a mistake/misunderstanding...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] flibblesan:
The download issue is nothing to do with Paul being banned from XDA. Filesonic have disabled all downloads it hosts. Probably due to legal action from the FBI etc who are going after download sites.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] icebergfella:
Any other location I can get it?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] krelvinaz:
You just need a file manager that works with root access.

o Navigate to /system/etc/security

o Make sure you have RW turned on

o Move otacerts.zip to your /sdcard (I also renamed it to otacerts.zipDontuse)

Make the filesystem RO again... done.

In the MoDaCo thread, Paul has posted a new link. As a result, I've removed the link I posted so that he can continue to track downloads.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] loughary:
Not complaining but correct me if I'm wrong but it looks like if you want to use MoDaCo's Custom ROM Gr6 for the Kindle Fire you'll need to sign-up to be a premium member on his site. doesn't look like the new version is being offered for free download.

Again...not complaining just wanting to confirm it that's correct.

[LG Revolution] capt730:
First, thanks to mtmichaelson and other senior members for making it so very easy for a novice to make his phone into a whole new animal. I am looking at rooting etc my wife's Droid Incredible 2 and it was much easier doing my revo.

I have been reading this forum for a while before I made the leap. I like everything about my phone except my wifi signal strength. I know it is not my router as my wife's Dinc2 can sit next to mine with full bars and I only have 2 or 3. Is their a tweak to help increase this? I have looked at the tweak page that spc_hicks09 but am not sure if the net speed tweaks would help boost my wifi.

Thanks for any input, this forum has been great.

Idk about the wifi but I rooted and romed my room mates dinc2. If you need any help let me know.

I am in the process of rooting and rom'ing my wife's dinc2. I am just wondering if there are any Revo wifi tweaks to help my Revo pull a stronger signal. I can be 15 feet from my router and only have 3 bars, while every other wireless device (laptop, ipod, wii, dinc2) all show full bars.

I am very happy with the performance difference in my phone and I haven't even Blitzed it yet.

And thanks for the offer to help. If I hit any snags with the dinc2, I will ask.

Go to market and clean cache and data, then go to google frameworks and do the same, clear cache and data, and better if u reboot your phone.

Your market should work again.

If you have a new Rom, you can try to update the gapps. You can found them on the cyanogen mod site.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Failforce:
I think the problem is you have a rom wich is not in your region but you can change the region manually . Give *#272*IMEI Number# in the phone and you can change your location choose the right for you mine is for example middle east . BUt save your data before you do that because that step remove your saved data.

By the way maybe you dont know your IMEI than go with *#06# and here is it.

This is doing my head in to the point I have borrowed a new HTC Sensation only to find the problem exists on this phone also.

When using the Camera App If I hit the power button the screen turns off. I am then unable to switch the screen back on - It appears the phone crashes.

Behaviour some times differs depending whether I have taken a photo or not.

The following behaviour is observed:

The lights stay illuminate on the soft keys at the bottom of the screen.

The phone can receive calls how ever it doesn't ring and I unable to answer them.

This problem is confirmed on 2 seperate devices which have been flashed with:

Android Revolution HD 3.6.12

10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2 radio

I have also run super wipe on the phone before installing the HD Rom.
