Has anyone got Plants vs Zombies work in this Rom?

I try to run it but it keeps freezing, sometime it run for a short time, sometime freeze from beginning. I guess it is because the game require full screen mode? It runs well in CM7 Barebone though.

Thanks,
[Kindle Fire Android Development] vbdss:
If its a Fullscreen problem, no ICS rom with Kernel 3.0 have the feature to hide the nav bar
[Kindle Fire Android Development] zando2712:
Gesture Control Root seems like a good workaround.

Swipe up from bottom bezel to hide bar!

Swipe again to show!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] exile20:
It worked, thank you.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] vbdss:
Trying it, but it messes up with my wallpaper
[Kindle Fire Android Development] forest1971:
Thanks for suggesting GestureControl! Plants vs Rombies still doesn't work using fullscreen by GestureControl but the app offers a nice option to play with.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pbailey212:
I have been playing plants v zombies and haven't had any problems. Use titanium to backup the game and uninstall it then install it again from what ever source you did originally and go back in to titanium and restore data only. Its worth a shot

ADB Issues

I tried this, thought it should work, but I get Code 10, The Device cannot Start. After I uninstall, it shows up in Device Manager as a Modem Device on High Definition Audio. When I choose a driver to install, I say it's an Android Phone, either Android ADB Interface or Android Composite ADB Interface. The driver installs, but it says "The device cannot start. (Code 10)". Did I do something wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Roger
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ma678:
Driver installed using this method. Mine shows Android ADB Interface under Android Phone in Device Manager; however, when I run "adb shell", it gives me "error: device not found".

I also changed Root access to ADB and Apps under Developer Option.

Anything wrong.

Thanks.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] stranula:
You get it working yet? I did the same thing...

I've had it plugged in for 20 mins now and nothing is happening...

**EDIT**

After being on charger for ~25 minutes with no signs of life, held the power button for a while (30-45 seconds) unplugged the charger and it started booting. When it finished booting, the battery level was 22%
[Kindle Fire Android Development] forest1971:
I tried all different option with installation and Titanium restore but got no luck. Plants vs zombies 1.0 would run for one level and then freeze in the middle. Thanks anyway.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Tony84:
It's weird you got problems on wall charging.. I'm able to charge it with no problems. Just the orange led isn't turned on while in deep sleep and charging speed is reduced, but it charges.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] zando2712:
My wallpaper also got messed up. I am now using a live wallpaper and it works great. :D
[Kindle Fire Android Development] yup8:
Can someone please confirm MKV 720P with MXplayer works smooth ?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] animefun135:
yes but sometimes a bit laggy.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] motioneso:
I use BS Player Lite and it works really well. I'm able to mount my Windows share with cifsmanager and then watch 720p mkv's over the network with great success.

HBO Go; Time Warner TWC TV

Thanks for this post, I wasn't sure what HBO Go meant when it said it's not compatible with this device. On stock ROM, it worked with the turn-off-wireless trick, so I thought it was a rooting issue.

I was excited to try TWC TV since it only works with ICS, but then I found the app is able to detect root and won't work on rooted devices.

I used OTA Rootkeeper to hide root, then disabled root access, uninstalled the apps, then reinstalled them. TWC TV still detected root and wouldn't work. HBO Go continued to say not compatible with this device.

This really sucks. I'm not some digital pirate, I pay a lot of money to them and just want to enjoy HBO and Time Warner on my KF. I guess if that's the price of having a hackable/customizable tablet, so be it.

Anyone have any other ideas on how to get this to work?

Thanks- Roger
[Kindle Fire Android Development] exile20:
I changed it to adb and apps then i copied and passed the code since I wasnt sure what was changed. The kindle was unpluged from usb and I installed the drivers through KFU folder and it installed it again so I have two drivers now. I plugged in the kindle, started up kfu and it worked.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gclo85:
Just wanted to say how nice this ROM is. I tried the Energy ICS since someone told me that the ADB doesn't work well on this ROM but the Energy ICS had problems so I came right back to this since I had no issues to begin with. Thanks gedemis! :D
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Damedus:
I use Motorola's ZumoCast (theres a mod version on XDA that works on all devices) and i can stream my movies from any pc I have zumocast on onto the kindle, iphone ect. I love it cause I can see my movies on all my devices and only need to have 1 copy in 1 pc.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] brizey:
Thank you very much for pointing out zumocast! Works great.

ZumoCast thread on XDA
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Fireblend:
So, my brother and I started using this ROM, however it seems like both tablets can't be online at the same time... I suspected the ROM might be providing us both with the same fixed MAC address, but when I went to check under settings->about for this, I discovered entering that specific submenu causes the settings app to crash (on both tablets).

Did we know about this already? My apologies if so.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Aesrys:
You might try to flash the latest kernel again to see if that helps. If not you'll probably just want to go wipe (factory, both caches, and system) and maybe even download again to make sure it wasn't a bad file.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Fireblend:
Was that a response meant for me? Does that mean you aren't able to reproduce the issue I outlined above? (Go to Settings->About Tablet->Status and see if it crashes the settings application or not)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] psg190:
Can you stream MKV files with Zumocast? I keep getting an error but in the original thread it looks as if it is possible to play MKVs. :confused:
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lordsofletterbox:
Yeah I can confirm your error, I get the same force close when checking status in about tablet section.

ICS Encryption fail **WARNING*

Over on the captivate forums there are those who have suffered the dreaded encryption failed and lost access to their SD cards.

I just checked my Kindle and had this on my screen! I was running this ROM. Not that it's the rom's fault, this has been happening across multiple devices running ICS. The screen had a button that says to push it to do a factory reset. The Cappy forums warn us not to. I held the power button until it shut down, and then restarted it. The message was still there. I shut down again, booted into recovery and factory reset and installed an another rom. Rebooted and now it works.

Many haven't been as lucky!

Just wanted to give a heads up.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] CodenameDeadpool:
Whoa. No bueno.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pbailey212:
For those having wifi issues, download the latest kernel and flash it by its self. M,y wifi kept cutting off and reflashing kernel 8 fixed it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] yup8:
What Are the main problems of this ROM please?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] namurt:
the main problem is that people who are too lazy to read the thread (or at least the OP) shouldn't bother to flash it in the first place.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Buffet_of_Lies:
The two main problems at this point are inconsistent charging issues (Hashcode is rewriting the charger drivers currently) and then he says he is going to work on the shutdown issue, which is that if you Power Off from the menu it doesn't fully shutdown requiring you to hold down the power button for >14 seconds until it fully shuts off.

Other than that we have some app and device ID issues that probably need to be ironed out. Hulu+, for one, doesn't want to play movies on this particular device as it is.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Aesrys:
Sorry, wasn't paying attention when I responded and didn't quote, just replied. I am able to go into Settings->About Tablet->Status without an issue. So, you might try flashing just the latest kernel again to see if it helps (and make sure to wipe caches). If not, then maybe try a totally clean new install. When I installed this time, I did a full wipe (factory, both caches, battery stats, and system), then installed the ROM, wiped both caches, flashed the newest (#8) kernel, wiped both caches, and finally flashed the latest gapps and wiped both caches. Probably overkill, but the ROM has been running smooth for me. I think I also did fix permissions under advanced after I was done with everything else. Hope it helps.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Aesrys:
Ignore this, sorry. Was messing with a different ROM. When I try it on gedeROM, it does FC. I definitely need more caffeine. :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
I'm working on the next build tonight. I'll get this fixed among other things :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] tex321:
Thank you, I managed to get out of fastboot on this rom using a slightly modified version of your andorid_winusb.inf, I added this to my original:

;
;Kindle Fire
%SingleAdbInterface%	= USB_Install, USB\VID_1949&PID_0006
%CompositeAdbInterface%	= USB_Install, USB\VID_1949&PID_0006&MI_01
%SingleAdbInterface%	= USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_0100
%CompositeAdbInterface%	= USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_0100&MI_01

;Kindle Fire gedeROM
%SingleAdbInterface%	= USB_Install, USB\VID_1949&PID_0001
%CompositeAdbInterface%	= USB_Install, USB\VID_1949&PID_0001&MI_01
%SingleAdbInterface%	= USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_0001
%CompositeAdbInterface%	= USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_0001&MI_01

I hope it helps if someone gets in the same situation, what I could not do, is manage to connect to the fastboot using Ubuntu, which is the OS I usually use, does anyone have an Idea how to do it?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] TahrirSquare:
Is there a way you can make an option to hide the navigation bar completely at full screen (no just minimize it to dots)? also if you can add circle Mod as an options for battery status display. Thanks Gede for the great work.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
everyone keeps saying hulu+ doesn't work. it works fine for me. I used the modded hulu app and all the videos load fine. I just can't get a screen capture cuz it pauses the video but it works.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Damedus:
I think people need to realize some apps have bad coding, others have specific device locks and others just dont work well with ICS yet.

Use this order before asking if a specific app works:

Is the app updated for ICS?(check the play store update date and comments)

Is the app device locked? (Check for a mod version, XDA has quite a few of some most used apps)

Does the app have a Resolution check?(If it does then a mod version if available, an updated ICS[Tablet] version would work. Otherwise wait till the Kernel problems get ironed out and maybe the devs will work on the hide option from the CM9 menu to work. Currently the other options are a hit and miss and a hassle to setup[This is where all those Gameloft games fall in, if u didnt notice most that fail are the ones with no ICS update])

Install Chainfire3d and its plugins. This helps because for some reason some games are getting tegra updates faster to ICS, These usually say "appname"THD. Chainfire allows you to boot those and usually work while the ones made for Galaxy tab don't.

Still cant get a game to work? well there happen to be some sites that have mod versions for games to work on ICS, although the aren't made for Kindle or the GTab they let you know that that specific game is having ICS problems, I don't recommend warez copies of paid games they wont fix the issue, they will simply skip the resolution check and license checks and crash after the intro movies. But if you're able to hide the bar yourself, mod your bought copy yourself without skipping the checks just to simply have it force close the notif bar when the game launches without removing the license check then be my guest to try this. Only backstab has worked flawlessly for me with a game mod rest i must use external method to crash the notif bar, also nova 1 and 2 still FC even with bar hidden so those need more work on ICS.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rthibeault:
Any chance you can post the .apk for the modded app. I tried the market app and a modded app that I found elsewhere, but neither play video. I was able to play Hulu + video on Reloaded rom and AOKP just fine, but not on this one for some reason. The app loads fine, I can access my account and queue, and it even loads video, but then gets hung up on "Buffering...it appears you are having network issues. Please wait, or try again later." Anyone else have any ideas? Is there a setting or something I'm missing?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
In Ubuntu, you have to run the adb server as superuser. Navigate to your platform-tools directory(in the android sdk) and do

adb kill-server

sudo ./adb start-server

Charging light comes on for me when I use my HTC phone charger and cable... On using Iphone charger, does not work with HTC cable, but works with an old Nokia cable I have... Am in UK, so don't have an original Kindle Fire charger.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Aesrys:
Thanks for the post. Just wondering if you've used Chainfire3d with Gameloft games like Asphalt 6 and, if so, what specific settings did you need? Thanks again.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
Next build will be able to run Asphalt 6 without mods ;) Should be out tonight/tomorrow
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Aesrys:
Thanks man that's great. Looking forward to it. Just curious, was it more build prop tweaks or did you have to get more creative?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] brizey:
Yay!

I almost got real racing 2 to work today using chainfire with the Qualcomm plugin and the sdcard files from my thunderbolt. It would start to render then crash out. Tried pretty much every combo of settings.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
Just changed the build.prop to imitate a Samsung Galaxy Nexus. Seems to be working quite well :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] TahrirSquare:
Thanks for your great work man. I was just wondering if you were able to improve on battery life? I think this is the biggest issue with the ROM right now.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
Should hope so, the next build features several new CPU governors, most of which aim at increasing battery life, while keeping everything snappy :)

Anyway, I'm off to bed now. Version 1.2 will be up tomorrow at some point!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] :
Will you incorporate the new fff 1.4?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
FFF has nothing to do with this or any ROM. It's a boot loader.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Misune:
This is the best ROM using the 3.0 kernel yet. If your looking for a clean ICS rom this is the one. With the brightness working and no crazy sounds or themed icons it works like a charm!

Thanks!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Hashcode:
I think the question was if he will add the new line to BoardConfig.mk to support "reboot recovery" (which is newly handled by FFF 1.4)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
You're right, that's probably what he meant.

BTW, the reboot to recovery menu option currently only shows up if the kf is held in landscape mode. I had to change overlay/frameworks/base/core/res/res/values/arrays.xml as well in order for this option to appear in portrait mode. Sorry if this is off topic.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Hashcode:
Nice catch. Fixing that out at GitHub.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] webdroidmt:
Never knew the power menu had a reboot to recovery, I'm always in portrait when using the menu. :p Thanks.

My battery will not charge its charging so slow plus no sort of sign that its charging and it decreases when I have it sitting on the charger instead of charging .--. Any ideas
[Kindle Fire Android Development] GT5830:
Do not turn on wifi, do not turn on display (display on = discharge a lot)... just plug charger/usb and let the charger do it's job. You may check after a few minutes, it will charge even without LED on.

if accidentally, the bat 0% ... (auto shutdown):

1. Charge about 5 minutes with off condition ...

2. Unplug the charger ... press power button >14seconds ... release ... press again

3. Wait KF starting ... until it show HOME Window

4. Plug the charger, it will charge the KF (no LED), after a few minutes check the bat %, it will increase.

Hope Help.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
What happens if someone running an older version of FFF tries to reboot to recovery?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] GT5830:
OTG

Help please ....

How to open an USB Flashdisk using OTG? What should be activated? what file manager should be used?

I Plugin the USB Flash disk, restart the KF, Open Root Explorer, but the USB Flashdisk not there.

My USB Falsh Disk's LED ON and active, but I can't access the USB Flashdisk.

Thanks in advanced for your helps.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
MAJOR UPDATE! See OP!

Screenshots from V1.2:

New circular battery icon option (Select in settings->system->status bar)

True fullscreen mode:

Modified build.prop allows for new games:

Here it comes.... I can't wait to download ..... waiting..... :-)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
And the download is up! :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pbailey212:
I have been very impressed with this rom already. Im downloading now. Thanks!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Aesrys:
Nice job once again. I'll have to test it out when I get the chance.

Out of curiosity, since I'm still learning this stuff, what affect/benefits will hiding the status bar have? If I remember right, some apps won't run because it won't go away in ICS for KF. Is that correct?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
New CPU governors:

InteractiveX Governor:

Created by kernel developer "Imoseyon," the InteractiveX governor is based heavily on the Interactive governor, enhanced with tuned timer parameters to better balance battery vs. performance. The InteractiveX governor's defining feature, however, is that it locks the CPU frequency to the user's lowest defined speed when the screen is off.

Smartass V2 Governor:

The CPUfreq governor "smartassV2", like other governors, aims to balance

performance vs battery life by using low frequencies when load is low and

ramping the frequency when necessary, fast enough to ensure responsiveness.

The implementation of the governor is roughtly based on the idea of interactive.

The idle loop is used to track when the CPU has idle cycles. The idle loop will

set a relatively high rate timer to sample the load when appropriate, the timer

will measure the load since it was set and schedule a work queue task to do the

actual frequency change when necessary.

The most important tunable is the "ideal" frequency: this governor will aim

for this frequency, in the sense that it will ramp towards this frequency much

more aggresively than beyond it - both when ramping up from below this frequency

and when ramping down from above this frequency. Still, note, that when load is

low enough the governor should choose the lowest available frequency regardless

of the ideal frequency and similarly when load is consistently high enough the

highest available frequency will be used.

Smartass also tracks the state of the screen, and when screen is off (a.k.a

sleep or suspended in the terms of this governor) a different ideal frequency

is used. This is the only difference between the screen on and screen off

states. Proper tuning of the awake_ideal_freq and sleep_ideal_freq should

allow both high responsiveness when screen is on and utilizing the low

frequency range when load is low, especially when screen is off.

Finally, smartass is a highly customizable governor with almost everything

tweakable through the sysfs. For a detailed explaination of each tunable,

please see the inline comments at the begging of the code (smartass2.c).

OndemandX Governor:

Basically an ondemand with suspend/wake profiles. This governor is supposed to be a battery friendly ondemand. When screen is off, max frequency is capped at 300 mhz. Even though ondemand is the default governor in many kernels and is considered safe/stable, the support for ondemand/ondemandX depends on CPU capability to do fast frequency switching which are very low latency frequency transitions.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
Actually, all apps should run perfectly, just in true fullscreen mode ;)

Changelog

3-5-2012 Version 1.2:

Major patch

Fullscreen mode! You can now show/hide the status bar by holding the power button and clicking a button! See http://xdaforums.com/show...&postcount=373 for screenshots!

Ported several new CPU governors to Hashcode's kernel. Default governor is now OndemandX at 1.2GHz - should improve battery life!

Other governors for testing:

Smartass V2

InteractiveX

For more info, see http://xdaforums.com/show...&postcount=378

New custom circular battery icon! Can be selected by going to settings->system->status bar-> battery status style. Nothing changed about the normal icons.

New build.prop tweaks: Disguises the tablet as a Galaxy Nexus when browsing for apps. This should allow for new games to run on the KF. (Tested on Dungeon Hunter 3 and Asphalt 6 HD)

Users running on FFF1.4 can now reboot into recovery(Thanks Hash!)

Removed flightmode from powerdown-menu.

I know this is being really pickie but can you also remove the vibrate icon from the powerdown menu?

Love the ROM so far can't wait to flash today's update.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] vbdss:
Thank you gedemis, best ICS rom out there.

Thank you for the new governors, thank you for hide nav bar.

Can we upgrade from the previous version to this without wipe (only wipe caches) ?

First Look

THis ROM seems to run pretty good, Didn't get any errors or problems with any apps, However I noticed that USB is not working either in debugging or Mass storage, I have ADB debugging option checked. Is this a known issue or is there something I can do to fix it. thanks
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Icetech3:
what game is that a pic of on the bottom of the first post?

P.S. Has anyone gotten live wallpapers to work on this? the option wont even show up for me.. thanks
