Can you please tell me if I can download gameloft apps from amazon appstore?

I bought order & chaos, dungeon hunter 2, backstab HD, eternal legacy there and more and none show up in that appstore with any CM7 or CM9 i have tried.

Thank You to anyone that can answer.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rhasce:
Loving it but!

I like it a lot looking very good, but one question how do i activate live wallpapers? Love the fact that I can download the apps without the country restriction since i beleive those restrictions are dumb and stupid and selfish...KEEP THE GREAT WORK! and help with those live wallpapers! also what is that game on the screen shot i want that!! thanks!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] piperthedj:
this is a rocking ROM. I am all about loving the improvements.

When i initially flashed it though TWERP advised the install failed every time. has any one else had this issue?

additionally:

i tried to install kernel 3 and got failure on this front as well. is there a way to see what kernel i am running at this time?

again a great build. Keep it up
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
By setting a flag when compiling the kernel. My Kindle runs just fine @ 1.2GHz :-)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] CodenameDeadpool:
Downloading now. Also, thank you OP for keeping the stock white soft keys. I will give feedback by the end of the night.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
I removed the livewallpapers.apk package from the rom. You should be able to find the apk on the market or somewhere on the internet.

The game is Dungeon Hunter III by Game loft :-)

I have a question, does charging with the original kindle fire charger work?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
I just charged mine from 20->100% using the original charger, but keep in mind that results may wary
[Kindle Fire Android Development] chrisliphart:
Yes. LED lights up, but the charging indicator in the notifications won't indicate it. I just watched it go from 95% to 96%, so it's definitely charging. :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] vbdss:
this rom has the option to hide the navbar and the shutdown button menu customization?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
nice, this is the first cm9 rom that let's me play order and chaos lol

but, it doesn't hide nav bar even tho I have it enabled.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] TahrirSquare:
Does USB mass storage work on this ROM? What do you have your min freq set to? Other than the regular Kernel 3.0 bugs, Is there anything else that's not working?

Thanks for your response.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Damedus:
yep i have swype installed, i made my own installer for it with titanium backup. works perfectly.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ta2025:
Mine is getting warm too. I think it jumps to 1.2 GHz and stays there and never throttles back.

It is once you have left Amazon services behind by re-flashing your ROM for Ice Cream goodness!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] brizey:
TiBU backs up the app data, as well, so you don't lose game progress, settings, etc. And it allows easy batch restoration. And stores any apps you have sideloaded.

Hi!

Since Hashcode updated his kernel, how long will it take to adapt your ROM?

Also: I love your ROM, keep up the good work!

[Kindle Fire Android Development] jamminjon82:
Couldn't you flash the rom and then the kernel update?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] chrisliphart:
I'm about to dive in and give it a go. I'll report back in a few. :)

EDIT:

Flashed kernel #8, wiped dalvik/cache, and I'm running with no issues. :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] BiteBlaze:
Don't mean to sound rude or ungrateful here, but what are the changes you made in this rom compared to all of the other cm9 roms? I'm just curious

~ BiteBlaze via HTC Sensation
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
Am working on it right now :)

Well, most cm9 roms are similar, however, no other roms were running at 1.2GHz at the time of my first build, and none(as far as I know) have a decent notificationbar setup.

Moreover, I included build.prop tweaks and Beats Audio.

Come to think of it, I really just wanted to create a ROM which had all the quality features scattered around :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
After messing around with the SystemUI, it seems that it is impossible to differentiate the two battery-views(the one in the bar and the one you see when you click the bar), without actually deleting the percentage from the bar.

I like having the freedom to chose whether or not I want the percentage to be shown, but if enough people feel like having the old style back, I'll compile a SystemUI.apk without a percentage in the bar :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] chrisliphart:
I had a feeling that was going to the issue. I haven't personally seen a ROM where it worked stock and modified. Ah well. Thanks for looking into it!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
Well, if I can find some time for it, I might try adding an extra battery-id in the .xml files to enable this option :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Damedus:
Gedemis since now we have OTA bluetooth support with kernel 8 how about leaving the bluetooth apk as default unless it cant detect OTG bluetooth adapter for on/off purposes.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
NEW BUILD OUT! Check the changelog and be pleasantly surprised ;)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Aesrys:
I'd like to know this as well, along with whether or not this works for Gameloft games, since they tend to be a bit more trouble that other games I've tried (for example, Dead Space would install and run for me on an ICS ROM from the Amazon app store, but Ashpalt 6 wouldn't run (it would start, download files, and then crash)). Thanks.

Gedemis: a very nice surprise indeed, with your new update and with the latest build (#8 correct?) of Hashcode's Kernel! :D:cool:

This is going to be a goo........d long weekend!

downloading now.

Thanks

Follow-up: I just wipe cache and davik cache (without wiping system/factory reset) and then install. It started well and all the installed applications seem to work fine. This may save time for restoring application for some body but I am not sure if it is the best way yet. Any comment on this way of upgrading?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] milanche:
I installed 1.15 over 1.1 without any wipe, even forgot to clear cache. Works perfectly.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
This is a great find, allows for one to get the bugfixes without wiping.

Do note that this might not work the same for everyone :-)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Tony84:
Does anybody have problems with wifi disconnecting sometimes?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] milanche:
Yes, I just had to try it and for me it worked luckily. Well, if it hadn't, I'd just make a clean install..
[Kindle Fire Android Development] scarfoot:
Well, I had a similar issue and I suspect it might be with the launchers. I tried Apex and didn't care for it, so I went to go launcher HD. I removed the other launchers with root explorer, and I haven't had any lag issues since. I did the same with my friends kf, and use MiHome on his and its very snappy too .....wonder if the launchers are fighting with each other?

When you add an app, it adds a shortcut on each launcher. Sometimes would get a fc. I think this will help!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] scarfoot:
Is there a way to turn off apps from adding a shortcut to the desktop when you install it or is that an ics thing? I couldn't find a setting anywhere.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] moore.bryan:
Hmm... interesting hypothesis. I'm just using Apex because, well, it's there.

Any reason why you didn't stay with Trebuchet?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Guardsix:
Check your settings while in Google Play store. There's a setting that if unchecked will stop apps being dumped on your home screen.

---------- Post added at 10:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:00 AM ----------

Yes,absolutely. 1.7 is stable and very smooth. I stayed on 1.55 until 1.7 was released and now ICS works perfectly!

OK, I'll bite. What does CRT animation actually do or not do?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] veeman:
The CRT animation is just the effect when you lock the tablet. It looks like one of the old CRT televisions turning off.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] scarfoot:
I have always had good luck with go launcher, so I always seem to migrate back to it. Just seems that the developers at go launcher are very receptive to feedback.. Trebuchet is nice, but I think it needs some more refinement IMHO.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] worldwidepmp:
Does anybody have any issues with the taskbar occasionally freezing?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] moore.bryan:
Isn't GO just so bloated?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] scarfoot:
It can be but I don't install a lot of their extras. Go Launcher HD is pretty lightweight.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] moore.bryan:
I decided just to go with the same launcher as my phone--Holo Launcher--and it's flying now.

Delete key in Gmail 4.0.5 app

I am not sure if this is a Gmail thing or what. I have the GMail tablet version for ICS (4.0.5) installed. I think it came down as an update. When I read a message, there is not key to press to delete it. I have to hit the menu key and then select delete. This is annoying as heck. Other screenshots I see of ICS Gmail have the button there, but I am not sure if it something with this version of the ROM.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rcatron:
Pretty sure that this is just a 7" tablet design. It is the same on my stock Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0. My 10.1" tablets all have the delete button outside of the menu.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] saltyorange:
I see...I don't understand the designers' decision there, but your explanation makes sense. Why they left the delete key there for 10" tablets and for phones like the Galaxy Nexus but put it inside a menu for 7" tablets is a mystery to me. Well, I guess if it annoys me enough, I can go back to the old UI from 2.3.6.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] snkmad:
Does the gedeROM supports OTG?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Majin Kaioh:
Late on this reply, but this worked. Not sure what caused the issue, but uninstalling it in Titanium Backup worked.

Trying to immediately reinstall Apex Launcher failed. Rebooting of the KF first before installing Apex Launcher from the Play Store is the course of action for anyone who has a similar issue as this.

So, to recap, if Apex Launcher cannot update, first backup your Apex Launcher settings and desktop (optional, but usually helpful), then go in to the settings to clear the default launcher, press home, and select Trebuchet as the default for now. At this time use Titanium Backup to uninstall Apex Launcher. Restart the KF, then go to the Play Store and install Apex Launcher. Restore the settings, and it should be good to go.

Wasn't too bad using Trebuchet for a little while, but I enjoy Apex Launcher.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] veeman:
You can mount through TWRP. Boot into TWRP and go to Mount.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] snkmad:
So it does not support mouting via USB anymore nor OTG?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] veeman:
I haven't had mounting via USB work on any of the ICS roms I've tried. I haven't tried OTG though. I think it should work though.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Leraeniesh:

Hello all,

Just flashed my bro's KF last night with this ROM, anyone experiencing Chrome FC when attempting to go to settings?

ROM or Kernel prob? :rolleyes:
[Kindle Fire Android Development] G-diddy:
Big 10-4 with force close in chrome when going to settings. I think I'm going to go back to 1.55 (again). Still too many bugs with 1.7 even though it's light years better than 1.6 and 1.65. Got several boot loops when first installing ROM. Gunman Clive force closes if you toggle full screen without pausing. Won't do it if you pause then do it again without pausing but will again after restart. Also, every time I reboot, gmail notifications pop up even after I've previously clicked on them. For one account when I click on the notification it opens a toast window asking me what app I want to download with. I will say1.7 is slightly zipper though. But not worth the bugs IMO. But Gedemis does make the smoothest, fastest, least buggy roms for our blessed fire overall.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] webdroidmt:
No, I tried reinstalling when Chrome first came out of beta and it didn't work. Just tried it again for the heck of it with no success. I'm on eyecandy rom but it also didn't work on a Glazed rom for me.

Fortunately, I hardly ever have need to use settings but if i do, I just clear cache & data in the Chrome app. This way when I relaunch it, I get the sign in screen. Once you sign in and see the tour screen, there's a hyperlink on the lower right portion of the screen for settings that works just that one time.

It's a PITA but as I said, I don't need to change settings very often.

My bad guys. USB mounting is working.

I had to go to settings / developer options / USB Debugging and uncheck this option, which came checked by default.

I'll try OTG later and report back.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] webdroidmt:
Yeah, I see that. Odd that my TP, also running a current CM9 build doesn't have that issue. The only significant differences are that the TP CM9 rom isn't using Linaro or a 3.x kernel???

Ah, really not that big a deal for me and I'm sure it'll get worked out. :cool:

Mike T
[Kindle Fire Android Development] HaiKaiDo:
Lol! Thats so weird! This worked for me too. I thought it was supposed to be the other way around O_O lol
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
I believe the same happens on the glaced rom - which means it's not linaro related.

Because the kernel included is not compiled using the linaro toolchain (even though Hyperrunner states it it)

Edit: I'm going to do a quick non-linaro build and see if it makes a difference.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Badgerino:
Settings was working fine on Chrome before the Beta ended. Not sure if it's related to something Google did or not but the timing is right.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
As I thought - it's certainly not linaro related. Same chrome settings FC on non-linaro builds. Which kinda suggests a chrome bug....

Chrome settings without crashing

I found a workaround to get to the Chrome Browser settings! Launch Chrome and go to: chrome://welcome/ and this will take you to the welcome screen and at the bottom right corner is a link to settings. Touch that link and you are in your settings without a crash. You can also bookmark the welcome page.

Also chrome://chrome-urls/ will give you links to other options you might want to check out.

Hope this helps!

You may want to reflash if you haven't done so already. It could just be a bad flash. If you aren't upgrading from a previous version of gedeRom, make sure to do a factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik. And make sure you flash with TWRP.
