Is there a change log for the new update anywhere? I just got this up and running last night and don't feel like resetting up everything again. I just want to know if there were any big changes/fixes that would be worth reinstalling everything for.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Nwright9494:
Download volume+ apk from online, it fixes the volume problem.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bonzai3558:
I found this setting fixes the wifi icon.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Xplorer4x4:
Better yet when downloading from goo tap the md5. It will dl an md5 file for the rom. Now grab afv from scarey alien in the play store. Use it to browse to the md5 file and long press then select md5sum -c Type check. It verify the md5 for you so you know for sure the zip is good and dont acidently the hash wrong and waste time and bandwidth. I just wish more devs used goo or atleast an md5 so I could use this any time I dl any rom at all for the kf or my phone.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] mrgoochio:
Just got my KF, got KFU and rooted + installed TWRP.. flashed m5 and gapps but when I reboot after the triangle the screen just goes black and stays black. What am I doing wrong? I have m5 running on my galaxy nexus and it was super simple to get everything running but I've been trying to troubleshoot my KF for hours with no luck.. would really appreciate some insight please
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
Are there any plans for adding an option to "kill app - back button"? Or is there one and I just missed it?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] tehloxely:
Thanks for other wifi bars fix.

Found another bug .. the lock screen lock icon image is not in other right place.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] mrgoochio:
Anybody have any ideas? I still cant get AOKP to load. Is there something special you need to do to get this rom to work? i tried a different rom and it booted just fine.

edit: i just realized the OP link for the m5 download has a different file name than the official aokp website for m5 KF edition. i didn't see any info on whats different between the two. can someone point me in the right direction?

edit 2: flashed aokp from official website using the download from all available mirrors there and nothing worked. the link in the OP works and it flashed right in no problem. took hours but its finally up and running lol. still don't know what thats about, didn't have time to read through all the posts in this thread. pretty happy its running though! on another note, m5 on my KF is a bit diff from the one on my galaxy nexus. for one, KF comes default with trebuchet and the gnex is still running nova both stock for stock. time to start getting into it!

Gee..I wonder where you found that picture? Smart of you to trim the bottom off.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] tankmorph:
Not very constructive for your 2nd post. Stolen screenshot? Who cares?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] linuxsense:
You are correct, it is no big deal. I just found it funny as when I originally posted the fix and screenshot on another forum I was wondering how long it would take to show up here. I was amazed at how quickly it did. All is well.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] biglama:
If you switch to the webos style task switcher in rom settings it will space the buttons out permanently. General UI / horizontal task switcher I believe.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] mrgoochio:
enabling this option didn't do anything to my nav bars..
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bonzai3558:
Actually its a screenshot from my Kindle Fire, which takes a .PNG file and I had to edit it in the gallery to post in XDA as a .JPG. Chill out.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] biglama:
Yeah, I apparently lied. Rebooting reverted them back. But if I toggle the setting it does space out again.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] patass:
the official aokp was just black screening, this booted instantly. Thanks guy.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Aesrys:
This is probably a bit off topic, but I have a question for my own learning. I recently rooted/updated my phone (Samsung Fascinate) to the Glitched AOKP Milestone 5 build. I was just wondering how that AOKP relates to this one. Is it something like a similar tree with device-specific drivers and kernel, or something more? Or am I way off? Like I said, just trying to learn, so thanks for the time.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] linuxsense:
Fair enough. My apologies for giving you a hard time. :thumbup:
[Kindle Fire Android Development] linuxsense:
I think the major difference is the kernel but it also has some device specific tweaks. I don't have a lot of time to stay on top of all of this stuff so I might be out of touch.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
Maybe I'm blind or still missing something but I don't see "hold back to kill anywhere"

[Edit:]Sorry about the sideways picture, it won't let me change it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] mrgoochio:
its not in general UI, its in navigation bar settings. Button 1 action & icon then button 1 longpress action right after it. same for button 2, 3, 4, etc.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
Got it, thanks
[Kindle Fire Android Development] marty331:
Sorry, I was giving you directions to where the button is looking at my infuse I assumed they were in the same place. Booted up my fire just now, they are different!

You would think that would be the same since they are both running the same ROM.

Infuse AOKP 4.0.4
[Kindle Fire Android Development] dnathan13:
one is a tablet...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] marty331:
Thanks for that nugget of information...

Infuse AOKP 4.0.4
[Kindle Fire Android Development] dnathan13:
haha, just pointing out why it is different. It is the same on my epic as your infuse, but the kindle is different because this rom is specific to the tablet. Your phone has physical buttons, this does not.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] linktohack:
Same source with customized to KF specs.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] spaceindaver:
So, what are the actual drawbacks to this ROM then? I've been using it daily for over a week now, and it seems to do everything I've asked it to, as well as charge properly. So:-

- Battery icon doesn't show charge state

... that's it, right?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] linuxsense:
For me charging does not start under certain circumstances and in some games I have had sound stop working then start up again after a bit, and the screen stays on when you shut the Fire down unless you hold the power button. Pretty minor issues, its been 100% usable for me.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] dnathan13:
I'm sure everyone noticed, but there is a new build out so we can patiently await a kf release from lithium
[Kindle Fire Android Development] xXezmacXx:
can i flash the new (5.1) version aokp_otter_build-M5.1_0xD34D.zip or should I stick with the one posted in the OP?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ammubarak:
You can flash the latest update 5.1.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Android16:
So the updates on goo are for this ROM? Just flash over this?

I thought we had to wait for them to modify those updates for kindle fire?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] machos1:
Just flash over..updated fine..

Make sure u do a backup jic..
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Aesrys:
Anyone know what changes come with 5.1?

Also, in case folks didn't know, Hashcode released an updated kernel.

---------- Post added at 08:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:08 AM ----------

I have a more general AOKP question. Does anyone know if the option to do media sync is actually present in AOKP? I know we can do mass storage. My phone used to ask me if I want to do either when I would sync, and I remember seeing an option on some CM9 KF roms to set whether USB will connect as mass storage, media device (MTP), or Camera (ptp). Does something like that exist on AOKP?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] zenopzz:
I flashed this a week or two ago and recently my Fire will randomly reboot but will just stay at the boot animation until I force shut down and turn it back on. I am on the latest update and latest 3.0 kernel. I also can not get music to play out the speakers using Amazon MP3 and Google Music. Is this a ROM issue or kernel issue?

EDIT: Just saw a new 3.0 was posted. Flashing now.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ryanhuong:
For the sound issue try plugging in then unplugging some headphones. Works for me 100% of the time.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] machos1:
Flashed latest kernel now..don't c any issues yet..wipe cache/dalvik and flash in recovery
[Kindle Fire Android Development] vbdss:
Build 35 is out, any plans on update the AOKP Build?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
i think hash is in the process of updating the aokp tree:-)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Android16:
Yea i think we should wait then. I don't want to flash the update and then the new kernel and then have an official update on here the next day that is better.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Aahz Pervect:
I've just been making backups and wiping selectively as I upgrade/update until more sweeping final releases are made. (although I do keep up: latest kernel and latest AOKP)

Yeah it's sloppy but that's what the backups are for.;)

Or rather, I'll patiently wait for lithium to make the Fire specific changes while I piddle around.:p
[Kindle Fire Android Development] 0xD34D:
Build 35

I updated to build 35 last night to start taking advantage of the theming engine. Right now most themes are geared towards HDPI devices or higher so themes are not applying at this time. I was able to change my LCD density to 240, reboot, apply a theme, change density back to 160 and reboot one more time. I'm not to fond of this hack so I am going to see what I can do to make them work out of the box.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] vbdss:
Maybe off topic, but why do we use LCD Density of 160 if we have a big screen and big resolution?

btw, hash didnt updated AOKP tree, will this interfer in someway on the rom?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Android16:
Lithium are we supposed to just update from goo manager? Guess its the same file as on here huh.

Also is it OK to flash the newest kernel on this too?

This is what I did(is this the correct way?):

1. In recovery backup "data"

2. wipe data, cache, davlik

3. flash new rom 35

4. wipe cache/davlik

5. reboot

6. go back to recovery and restore data, reboot

Anything wrong with this?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] engenuine:
*/* Edited */*

tweaked around a few of the ROM Control settings including power options and battery bar location and what not.

Now everytime I press "Home" button on the bottom, I get system UI has stopped working error. Reverting it back to backed up data...

*/* Before Edit */*

This is my 2nd ROM ever installed for my KF. (who cares? yes, no one.)

Titanium backed up user apps, twrp -> back up, factory reset x3 times,

delete cache/dalvik x3 times, then installed it with gapps, booted up fine ->

reboot in recovery and installed 5/10/12 kernel 3.0 version then restarted ->

recovered all user apps with titanium and everything seems to be running smoothly.

Thank you for your wonderful work!

;)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] thiefraccoon:
I wasn't able to duplicate your problem exactly,

But I get that "system UI has stopped working" every now and then, causing havoc :(

QUESTIONS!!!!

Hi I have a question...i hope you answer cause so far no one on here actually answers my questions :(....good job on the rom btw, its the first im actually tempted to try..

I used the kindle fire utility to root my rom, how do i install this rom? if there's another thread explaining could you direct me to it? also, is it possible to revert to the original os after if i want to?

and is video working?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] dnathan13:
Did you also install TWRP recovery when you used kfu? If not then install twrp. Dowload the .zip.

Power off the kindle then power back on into recovery (once the button light turns on hold the button for 5 sec/until the color changes)

In twrp make a backup of your current rom

Once the backup is done wipe cache, dalvik, system, data

Install and choose the .zip of this rom from your sdcard

reboot and make sure all is well.

You will also need to download and install gapps (no wipes) if you want the play store. You can do this at the same time you install the rom.

After you are done if you want to revert back just go into twrp and wipe everything then restore backup

Video works
[Kindle Fire Android Development] verfahrer:
You must install TWRP:

And then you can install this or another ROM:

Is there a way to hide the navbar to get a full screen not just minimize it?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] andTab:
Tried flashing this ROM but cannot get past the boot loop.

1. Factory reset

2. Wipe cache, dalvik, system (each twice)

3. install rom

4. install gapps

5. wipe dalvik

6. Reboot system

=> boot loop
[Kindle Fire Android Development] EVO'D_OUT:
navbar spacing

Just flashed 35..amazing work on this lithium. Running M5 on my Galaxy Nexus so this is very familiar territory.

Quick question...sorry if that has been addressed already but how to get the navbar icons (back, home, etc) properly spaced out? They are all bunched up. Thanks

http://www.ebay.com/itm/27090099524...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_4740wt_1044

I found it mentioned in some of the posts in General I think (or maybe Q&A). I ordered one, so hopefully it'll be here soon. Supposedly, it doesn't need to be modified in any way to work.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] airmaxx23:
I recently got 2 of these and they work just fine.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] zenopzz:
It is now doing it more than before, probably about 6-10 times a day. It will freeze then the boot animation will play forever until I hold down the power button and turn on again. Any Ideas?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] evo_like:
you have tried a full fresh install? wipe everything and flash everything from scratch?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Aesrys:
Did you have to do anything to get it to work, other than maybe install an app like stickmount? Mine actually came today, but it wouldn't actually load either of my drives. One had power (led flashed) but wouldn't mount, the other wouldn't even power up apparently (no led anyway).

---------- Post added at 06:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:54 PM ----------

Not necessarily a fix, but if you add a 5th nav button (I used the Play Store for example), it does space them out a bit more.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] andTab:
thanks but that is not it.

It boots past the TWRP and then goes into an endless bootloop.

Same thing with Hashcode's rom (where it even shows the boot logo but then keeps rebooting)

I can get it to work but it is f@#$%ing annoying that I literally have to flash the rom 15+ times for it to boot properly!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
That's very interesting...can you post a video of it in the Q&A section?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] minieod:
is there a changelog/
[Kindle Fire Android Development] iluretar:
What i do is change it to 4 buttons and then back to 3 and they are normal, doesnt stick after reboot though

[Kindle Fire Android Development] quiksilvrsb:
Hey all

I have a rooted kindle fire running AOKP 5 Milestone. Ever since I flashed 5.1 when it was released, I have been having trouble flashing other ROMS onto my KF in TWRP.

When I try flashing other ROMS, I reboot into recovery TWRP 2.0.0, wipe factory, wipe system, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, THEN try to flash the ROM. Everytime. Except everytime I do that, I get an error saying

"Verify md5 for blahblahblah.zip

No md5 file found. ignoring."

And this happens with every ROM I try to flash. And every time after that I get

"E:cannot load volume/misc!"

Even if it is the newest AOKP. Am I doing something wrong? Luckily I have a backup of my Milestone 5 ROM, so I always just reload that.

Any help would be much appreciated!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] harry_fine:
Once I've installed build 35, can I just drop in the latest Kernel from this thread:

[WIP][KERNEL][DEV-ONLY] 3.0 Kernel for Kindle Fire [05-10 UPDATE #9 -- WIFI GPS, +]
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Aesrys:
Those messages are normal. You'll always see the E drive message and TWRP will try to find a MD5 file when it flashes.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] harry_fine:
Is this build 35 the same as I see some people referring to 5.1?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Aesrys:
Yes, just flash it like you did the rom.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] deBricker:
Not booting

So I just flashed the Build 35 and I'm not booting. Followed the instructions to the teeth. As of right now, I have a blank boot screen.. HELP?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] machos1:
Kernel dated 5-10 #10 is already included in the rom..don't need to flash it again...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] covergeek:
Thanks - went ahead and ordered one - can't beat free shipping. Frys had one like this from Sony selling for $16 - figured I'd try this one out first
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Android16:
Amazon has them as cheap or cheaper and are more reliable than ebay or anyone I know. I have prime so 2 day free shipping also. I got mine there.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] harry_fine:
Just installed build 35, installed with a full wipe to factor, did cache clears, dalvik etc. Installed the new v.10 of the kernel, although I just saw an earlier post that it wasn't necessary as it's included. Installed new GApps.

I can't get into USB mass storage mode. in Settings > storage > menu > usb computer connection > MTP, the menu that used to be there to set the proper mode, is gone!

Want to confirm that this is a ROM bug, so I don't have to keep looking.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] AluminumHaste:
CM9 ReloadedMOD has the same issue, USB doesn't work yet, I think it might actually be a kernel issue, not the ROM.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] frigidazzi:
Anyone to force the menu button to always show up like I can do on my AOKP galaxy Nexus? I much prefer it always being there in the same spot.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] machos1:
Yup..I added a menu button from rom settings..just like to have it there all the time n don't mind two menu buttons being displayed sometimes :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] frigidazzi:
Mine keeps disappearing on certain

Most apps including the home screen. Does it to that to you too?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] machos1:
I added 2 menu buttons..so one is permanent and the other appears sometimes..
[Kindle Fire Android Development] tankmorph:
To see everything in the play store, this ROM needs this update:

Have to wipe play store cache/data and reboot. May need to log in/out of play store on PC, too.

[EDIT] Never mind, just flash Hashcode's 5/12 kernel. :-)

[Kindle Fire Android Development] zenopzz:
Not sure what is going on here. My fire was charging all last night but I think its dead and/or not seeing a battery. I can get it to turn on without being plugged in for little bit. It boots up to the lock screen then freezes and goes out. The battery icon is an "!" for the short time the lock screen is up. The back light stays on for a bit then goes out. The only way I can get it to turn back on is holding down the power for about a minute or so. I can get into TWRP and there is no battery status in there like before. I noticed in TWRP I can wipe battery status, should I do that (and what does it do)?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] marty331:
Its just a dead battery. Let it sit plugged in for an hour without touching then come back.

I couldn't flash it so I flashed the GedeRom on my Fire. I'm really missing the AOKP ROM Controls menu so I'm going to download this again.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] harry_fine:
This is the third time this question has been asked here, but so far, no definitive answer.

Did this ROM break the ability under Settings --> Storage to set the USB connection to mass storage mode, in other words MTP?

On my KF with this ROM, a fresh full wipe install, the menu to get into the setting from Storage is not there?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] marty331:
I have the same issue.
