This has the progress from the nightlies in it as well so we don't lose speed or functionality going to the stable?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] BobbaLouie:
I think 10.1.2 stable brought back the rotation bug. At least I can't figure it out, whereas it works as expected on the same version for my Nexus 7.

While tinkering with the rotation issue I did look for a new nightly in the cmupdater, nothing. Web site shows them though.

Hey I've noticed that the power LED turns green at 97% charged on my Fire. Thought Hash should know about it.

Please add zram module to kernel.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] :
Why don't you do it and submit the changes?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] BupycNet:
I'm sorry, but I do not know how to edit the firmware, and in particular to rebuild the kernel with the necessary module for ARM. So I use Archlinux ... give instructions?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] :
My point was more so that [MENTION=4243514]Hashcode[/MENTION] maintains multiple devices and although people can put in feature requests, he can't get to most of them... Therefore the best way to get a feature in is to modify the files and push the changes... He does read all the requests but he can only do so much.

Bro, if you flash a desire Z rom on your kindle, and it successfully flashes, your kindle will NEVER turn on again.

I am not even going to go into why zram is a bad idea on an SSD, because you won't understand.

Zram - compress swap in ram. It has nothing to do with the hard drive or SSD.

Running the first release and it runs very smooth. Quite impressive! However, battery life seems not so good and the device gets very hot while streaming video through Plex.

Downloading the 7/31 build now and will see if that improves things
[Kindle Fire Android Development] 'busa:
What's the 7/31 update. I installed the first 10.2 version that was available and things worked very nicely. My browser would crash, so I installed Chrome. No problems since. Then I misplaced it for two days and based on previous experience, I was sure it'd be dead when I found it. No! Over 60 hours, it only lost 10% battery in standby. Very nice!

I used to have issues with the 10.1 where it would completely drain itself instantaneously every so often. This appears to be nice.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] zenihilist:
I wonder what I'm doing wrong. I can't keep chrome open for even a few minutes without it crashing. Same with every other browser. Any suggestions? Thanks.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] zenihilist:
I'm using gapps-jb-20130726 from the OP. I used TWRP and wiped before install.

Every jb rom I've used has had this problem, so it may just be my kf showing it's age. But if there's anything I can try, please let me know. Thanks!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] FuZZ__:
I'm using exactly same gapps but have no issues so far.

Could you provide more detail about your crash, so that we could reproduce your isuue?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] zenihilist:
Sure! I recently did a new install of the rom and gapps and immediately installed chrome after setup to see if anything I'm restoring through titanium could be causing problems. I browsed IGN.com for a few minutes before it crashed to the home screen.

Thanks.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Pig Vomit:
I have also had this problem with the two JB ROM's I've used, both the basic AOSP 4.2 and the CM 10.1 ROMs. Both with Chrome and stock browsers. Always do a complete wipe, clean install. TWRP and FFF. No Titanium Backup used.

I have not yet tried any 4.3 ROMs.

It is reproducible in that it happens on a regular basis with any internet surfing, but it is hit and miss. It's not like I can say, "1. Do this. 2. Do that.", and lead you to it happening. When it happens, the browser hangs for a few seconds, KF doesn't respond to touch, then after a few seconds the browser closes and KF is functional again. You can then reopen the browser and go back to the same page that crashed, and it works just fine.

I was gonna wait for the 4.3 ROMs to get further along before trying it out. 4.2 is fine, only reason I would need (other than just having latest and greatest) to change is the damned annoying browser close issue.

I'm happy to try anything you suggest, but the problem is that there's no discernible pattern to the problem....it just happens on a *very* regular basis.

None of the other apps I use on my KF seem to have any problems (mostly SiriusXM and Maps/Nav/Local).
[Kindle Fire Android Development] tobiascuypers:
Im tired of seeing these issues as well. Ive read a lot about this and everyone no one seems to read other posts. This is 99% of the time a memory issue. If you keep track of your ram usage you should be fine. I have never had a problem with the browser FCing for 3 reasons:

1. I dont use chrome. Its a ram hog

2. I close all my open apps in the recent apps panel

3. I use a light weight browser, ie: naked browser, but ive also never had a problem with the stock one either

Ive noticed the amount of ram used by the android system has gradually gone up. And with any device with little ram it starts to be less functional over time with new updates. Im fairly certain that (until the 3.4.y kernel is finished) these issues will persist if you dont watch your memory usage.

I
[Kindle Fire Android Development] zenihilist:
It is important to read other posts and yours is a good summary of all I've read on this subject.

Still, whenever I read one where someone is using Chrome without crashes I wanna know if they're doing anything different. ;)

I also think it may help to change out the stock keyboard. When I change to SwiftKey tablet, the browser crashes lessen.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] tobiascuypers:
I sometimes use chrome just because my chromebook and nexus 10 all have it so my bookmarks are already there. I havent had a problem using hackers keyboard or Ice cream sandwich keyboard. Both are pretty light weight compared to the google keyboard
[Kindle Fire Android Development] :
Chrome is simply nonfunctional for me on the KF, way too heavy. Alternatively, NBPro is way too lackluster. I simply love the stock browser.

just flashed the very first Nightly, impressive... running very well compared to my other cm10.2 devices

But I've got few suggestions

* Nuke Focal app since our device have no camera, also saves over 10MB of storage

* Hide hardware keys settings under Buttons settings

Thanks for your hard work, as usual :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] NotShorty:
How are you guys using your KF to view pics taken with your Android phones? I don't use the KF personally, but I have 2 different family members for whom I've flashed Hash's earlier 10.1 builds.

Ideal scenario would be to use the Picasa service that's bundled with Gallery (the one from the 4.3 Google Edition phones that I use even allows you to pin albums for offline viewing, though I haven't tried it on the KF).

Anyway, really looking forward to upgrading to 10.2; the restricted profiles will really come in handy. Thanks, Hashcode and TIA for any responses.

sound toggle bug?

Hi, all.

This is my first post in the kindle fire forums.

As you can see by my user name I am a long time i9000 user that just recently got a kindle fire.

First of all, hello everybody, and great work on the rom.

It has been great to use, so thanks to the devs.

I just want to mention that I am experiencing what feels like a bug.

I'm on the 19-8 nightly with no additional modifications.

On the quick settings pull down panel, the sound toggle does not seem to be working properly.

When sound is on I can tap it to get it to silent mode but I can't tap on it again to turn sound back on.

I had to tap the volume tile and increase the slider to get sound again.

One other thing is, I am also seeing the chrome browser crash.

It also affects the stock browser if I use it after chrome crashes but if I use the stock browser after a fresh reboot it seems to work fine.

Just in case I'm misunderstood, I want to be clear that I am not complaining, just reporting my observations so someone who is smarter than I am can look into it and perhaps fix it.

I am going to be giving this kindle fire to my mom so I would prefer to be able to give it her bug free.

Anyway, thanks guys.

Hope I helped a little.

---------- Post added at 12:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:12 AM ----------

Just a quick question.

My understanding of governors is not too extensive but I thought that ondemand governor was supposed to maximize the cpu to maximum frequency upon touch.

I tried to use it but the cpu clock speed did not seem to react much to my touching the screen.

In fact it seemed to just sit on 300mhz and the device became slower and more laggy.

Am I misunderstanding the ondemand governor or am I missing something?

Any responses ould be much appreciated.

Thanks.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Hashcode:
I can look into the volume and browser crashes. But I recommend using cm10.1 for now if you're looking for a more "bug-free" experience.

Regarding governors: Interactive contains the touch boost code to immediately speed up the processor when touchscreen is activated. And this translates to a more responsive device. Ondemand hasn't really been touched in quite a while.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] i9000usersa:
Thanks for the response.

I was following the thread and it looked like the users on cm10.1 were having SOD's that were only resolved on cm10.2.

Also, i thought there were some other bug fixes that weren't merged to the stable release, and I thought I read you recommend using the latest nightly to get the most stable experience.

The governor thing is interesting.

Over in the Galaxy S 1 i9000 world the ondemand governor has been developed extensively and was recommended by many of the devs there.

I did see the touch response on the interactive governor but the cpu only went up to 600mhz on touch.

With my i9000 on ondemand it would always jump to maximum set frequency on touch.

Would that be overkill on a dual core device or just not worth exploring?

My i9000 is obviously a single core device and needs all the help it can get to try to stay reasonably responsive.

Not important questions, I'm just asking out of curiosity.

Thanks.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Hashcode:
IMHO, as long as you keep brightness off of the max setting, the cm10.1 build is very very stable.

CM10.2 is getting closer, but it has some issues that I'm still debugging:

- Network location isn't working correctly atm. Most apps work fine, but maps doesn't for instance.

- Still troubleshooting some of the hard key settings (looks good in the latest nightly)

- And several review patches have yet to be approved (like making Focal go away on devices w/o cameras), etc.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] FuZZ__:
I assume that come from because our device doesn't have vibrator.

I was trying to fix that on Power widget back on CM10 and eventually it worked(with very dirty code).

Here is Frameworks part commit for reference https://github.com/TaichiN/android_frameworks_base/commit/4d9ac8ddf56f3c3a527055358a496e7d0f00e300

I haven't looked QS code yet but that logic also could be applied on QuickSettings.

---------- Post added at 07:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:12 PM ----------

about Network location: Now I wonder that could be more apps issues on Wi-Fi only devices than ROM or device configurations

but unfortunately I don't have another Wi-Fi only device to reproduce that.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] i9000usersa:
Thanks again for the answers.

I have a couple weeks before I have to give this thing to my mom and the few minor bugs for me aren't so bad so I might just keep it for now and keep an eye on this thread to see if the bugs get ironed out.

The ROM is great.

Thanks for all your work.

And my previous question about touch response boosting cpu frequency to max?

You think that would be a good idea?

And what is the nominal clockrate on this device?

I have the default max set to 1008 which seems like a strange number.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] firered365:

homescreen redraw

Hello again,

I have been using this rom for a couple days now and I noticed that the homescreen is redrawing after I use some apps.

I understand this is some kind of a memory issue, so should I be using zram or same page merging?

I have tried some of those options and I didn't see any difference.

Or is there a better way to make the homescreen 'bulletproof' as some like to call it?

Or should I just live with it?

Thanks in advance.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] FuZZ__:
haven't merged yet http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/47756/
[Kindle Fire Android Development] i9000usersa:
Thank you.

I didn't realize that would be coded into CM as opposed to being device specific.

On a different note, when I use the stock browser to view embedded videos at sites like youtube or espn.com/video, in full screen mode the nav bar at the bottom takes up space an causes the video to not fill the whole screen, and then for a moment the navbar disappears making the video bigger, but only for a moment and then returns to how it was.

It does this several times during a short video which is pretty annoying.

Is this a problem with the browser or a ROM related issue?

Thanks again.

Let me start off by saying WOW - talk about making an old machine feel new again. Just threw on this ROM and for kicks installed Real Racing 3. I figured it would run slow and choppy. It runs glassy smooth - simply amazing! The only problem I'm having is the bottom black Nav Bar doesn't go away when playing RR3 and covers up a small bit of the screen. Is this an issue with the game or the ROM?
