I'm having trouble authenticating with my wifi with this rom, was not having an issue with the CM7 bvuild I was just running :(
[Kindle Fire Android Development] TexasRules777:
There is HWA in this rom. I had a problem with mx player not working right using hwa..might I suggest BS lite..works a lot better.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
Did you flash using CWM?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
Do you mean true full screen? If so, we need a way to restore the status bar. I'll look into it one of the upcoming days :-)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] :
How do I fully turn off this rom? Lol cause it doesn't turn off holding the button for 20 sec? Lights go off but when I press the power button screen cones on

Edit got it to turn off lol
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rthibeault:
Hulu Plus?

Thank you very much for your work on this ROM! Great Job!! I've been running for a week now (including updates) and am having great luck with it. For me, everything seems to be functioning very well...smooth and fast, except Hulu Plus. Anyone else having issues playing video in Hulu Plus? All other video seems to be working, ie, Netflix, Youtube, internet flash, etc.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] brizey:
Some of the CM7 builds have an option to put the nav buttons in the power button popup...maybe something like that? I found it useful.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Android16:
Wifi problems, Game incompatibility problems, charging/USB problems, not powering off how it should, etc. (I guess its all due to the kernel and build.prop)

As nice as ICS looks and as fast and nice as the menus go, the actual performance for playing games and watching videos is inferior to stock ROMS such as modaco so I have to go back til another kernel update that fixes most of this and a build.prop that allows us to play games that stock can play(kindle fire edition games).

Thanks for your work, really feels so smooth navigating menus, but thats where it all ends pretty much, eye candy.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] iesvs:
You know what you must do...

Considering the Fire's lack of hardware buttons, this was one of my favorite things about CM7, and probably the most convenient. I still find myself accidentaly pressing the button wishing the options were still there. It's perfect for full-screen apps, which I'd love to get back. This ROM is great, by the way, Veeeery smooth.

Edit: Not sure if already mentioned but Settings stops working when you try to go to About Tablet>Status.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] forest1971:
Yes, some CM rom (CM7 Barebone-a great CM7 rom by the way) put "back" and "home" key under power button (long press) menu which normally only have "reboot" "power off"....And some also use Button Saviour from (Google play) as another option.

The lack of full screen seem to have caused a number of application to FC/freeze.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Kujila:
I am able to shut off by powering down via ICS menus, then when the unit is "turned off" (the screen is black, but backlight is still on) I hold the button for 20 seconds and it turns off ok!

Uh, it's not his fault your Kindle fire edition games don't work - it's amazon's fault for making the apps specific to kindle! The roms make your KF into a vanilla android OS, so naturally your goofball KF-specific APK's aren't going to work. The build.prop is set up so we can get apps from Market and the likes OK.

What other performance issues are you having? I am curious. Problems with 3D Acceleration or something? Please let me know so I can try too :) I have had no problems with video acceleration, personally, aside from the sound issue.

The wifi issues and powering down issues are related to Kernel 3.0. If you don't like the BLEEDING EDGE go back to stock KF and read books or whatever you do :P

Good to know it's not just me...

Thanks, I will try this out soon if it isn't fixed in the ROM itself :)

I am using this build, whatever it is:

is it 1.15?

...from a clean wipe/davlik cache wipe

Aside from the Volume+ hack, is there any hope to getting this fixed?

Thanks for the support and great ROM! :)

[EDIT] Volume+ APK w/ speaker boost to 13 makes this ROM 100% complete for me! Wooo! Perfect ICS for KF

Direct APK from author (not pirated - this is the author's link from his website) http://dl.dropbox.com/u/56466503/BetaBuilds/VolumePlus1.9.0.0.BETA.apk
[Kindle Fire Android Development] chrisliphart:
I was going to explain the difference in HWA between MX Player and BSPlayer, but this post by one of the kernel devs sums it up much better:

That being said, the interface is much better, IMO, in MX Player, so I haven't switched.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Android16:
I said its the kernel and build.props's fault. Nobody blames anybody. I just said ICS is a downgrade overall and it is for now. Why do you seem so angry and defensive? We are beta testing the ROMs and problems need to be noted to get it fixed.

The games I am talking about are order & chaos, dungeon hunter 2, eternal legacy, backstab hd and more. They are many of the best games on any tablet. Most you cannot even play at all on ICS even through the play market. But on Modacos ROM all work great.

If you use Modacos ROM, it is stock pretty much but he allows you to have way more apps on play market and also has some performance tweaks and everything works great. Videos work flawlessly. Streaming and ones on your tablet HD. Add any launcher and you are fine.

IN this ICS ROM go to play market and you cannot even download dungeon hunter 2 for example. It does not open up a ton more apps compared to Modaco and stock. Some new ones appear, but others disappear too.

In ICS I have had a lot of different issues in video, stream freeze up sometimes or some certain players or apps do not work period. As noted by many the WiFi is not working well so you cannot really do anything if you have that specific bug. Look one post up from mine the guy says MX player does not work right, i have it working 100% on modacos rom.

As for the amazon market, the kindle fire apps are all missing on the ICS ROM, but all are there on Modacos ROM. The market gives you a free app everyday. Most are bad, but some are nice and not being able to play those and the ones I bought in the past is a big minus for ICS. BTW most of the games on there are available to other tablets too, not just the fire, look at the reviews and see for yourself.

Other issues with ICS are decreased battery life, charging problems(kernel i know), poweroff issues, and many more. It charges slower and lasts less time with ICS that is a big problem if you use it a lot.

It is just not stable or an upgrade when you add it all up for the moment. Nobody is saying stay on stock kindle unrooted, that is terrible.

Best option is a rooted MOdaco ROM right now IMO. It can play all the games and more than ICS, it can watch all the videos and more than ICS, its not just for reading books... again why so angry?

I love the ICS and hope it all gets fixed so I can switch back, but its not there yet. Great work up to now, just will take a lil more time.

Also, volume+ is inferior to equalizer in every way. Look up equalizer app on play market and enjoy!

My post is meant for people that read "ICS is so awesome it works so nice!!" It is not true. There are benefits, but also a lot of negatives to switching from something like Modacos ROM to ICS at the moment. I think by a review like mine, people get the truth ad can better decide and not have to go around trying them all how I have just to go back to the Modaco i had for months.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Damedus:
Dunno what market you're using but I'm running all those games you mentioned just fine except the ones that requires the bar to hide unless I use a bar hide apk. I'm also able to get my kf edition games running. I just find stock to be weird and never liked it. also many things are faster in ics not to mention otg support. Games that used to stutter a bit on stock and cm7 work flawlessly on ics. once we have a default hide bar on this rom I'll never use cm7 again. Modaco and stock I lasted 1 day before hopping to cm7 , I don't see how you can't see how much faster the cm's are, not only at opening apps but many market games that DC on me on stock work on cm. not to mention webbrowsers are so much smoother on ics .btw IM able to update my kf edition apks on ics, after I dropboxed their apks they just pop up under my Amazon market.

Also I get the free daily Amazon apk on ics just fine, and I can use market purchases from Amazon apps also on ics, I've yet to find something stock runs that ics won't ,yet ics runs Skype for me with voice, zumocast plays 1080 video( it would stutter on modaco thus why I removed it) plus all that eye candy is awesome.

In the end one chooses which rom works better for yourself and without Skype and a laggy gameplay on my favorite games stock/Modaco ain't for me.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] stranula:
l'm not sure that we are to be posting his links, but I figure if it is ok, we might as well post the most updated one http://dl.dropbox.com/u/56466503/Builds/VolumePlusv1.9.0.1-FREE.apk
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Android16:
As I mentioned the menus are faster and apps open faster in ICS by far. But there are a lot of bugs.The way you post its as if there are no bugs and its all smooth, but if you read this thread hundreds of bug reports.

If you can update your kindle fire edition apps on ICS please post how so we can all enjoy it. That would be useful instead of just writing the way you are doing so defensive.

You say you can play all the games I mentioned. How do you get dungeon hunter 2? It does not show up for me on ICS in play market. Please post how you got it to show up.

If you sideload them from titanium backup then they work I guess right? But then how do you get that to update through the amazon market? For me it only says "link to market" and it links it to the play market. So how do you make it link to amazon market?

I have a smartphone for skype and anything like that to voicechat or talk. The only thing i use my tablet for is video and games and browsing the internet once in a while. So far for me it is troublesome to do games and video compared to Modaco, maybe you can change my mind if you show us a guide on how you do all this flawlessly how you say.

Thanks in advance.

ADB won't connect to the device. Tried it under CM9 (USB debugging was enabled), and now trying it under TWRP, nothing. Already wiped the existing OS so I'm pretty annoyed, can't get anything to the device to install...

Any ideas?

EDIT: Tried on a different machine, worked fine. I'm running Windows 8 on my main computer, that was probably the issue.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] brizey:
Cannot seem to get Asphalt 6 running. I am a legit owner... bought it during the big sale Google had. It shows as purchased and downloads and installs o.k. It downloads the extra files. But when I launch it, it says it is doing the license check (activity shows on the WiFi icon), then it kicks me out. I tried hiding my status bar, too. Any ideas? It is not a market access issue, so I assume it is not a build prop issue.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] iesvs:
Did you install the Amazon App store for Android and log into that first?

Edit: Crap. You're not using the Amazon App store version, you're on the Google version. I haven't tried that one yet. I really wish we could delete our own posts here. That's really lame.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] brizey:
Your points are well taken, but I think the point you may be missing is that for a lot of us this is not our only android device. I don't own any Kindle Fire edition apps at all...I have a Thunderbolt and an Acer A200 as well, so it would not make sense to buy an app that only worked on the KF. I have bought about 100 apps on the play store, and I would like to make them work on the Fire. I have bought exactly one app on the Amazon App store...everything else I have there is the FAOTD.

For example, see my post above...I bought Asphalt 6 before I even had the fire.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] malawito:
I solved this problem adding a generated imei to the kindle. You can check in logcat that the app crashes witout it

Report Bugs

Hi gedemis...

I installed this ROM yesterday, played a bit and satisfied. But there are some bugs I found:

- When I set the setting -> Lock Screen -> Screen Lock to NONE, after the screen off -> it won't turn on -> need to restart

- Last night, the kindle was charged to 100% ... this morning (after 6 hours) it drained to 95%. On stock it stayed at 100%. I checked on bat stats after some periods showed increase use on : Android System, Tablet Idle and Android OS.

Thanks.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] res1n:
Great rom, running it now. Blows cm7 out of the water. Got my nexus 4g running wifi tether, however its running as a nexus one with softap and it seems to work fine, adhoc still doesn't show up but I'm sure that'll come as the kernel gets finished. As for battery drain, turn your kindle off when not in use and read hash codes thread as to why. Only more good things to come! Great work!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] tex321:
I need help. I installed this ROM and set my device to fasboot, now I can not connect to KF,

Went back to my old computer that I used to fastboot the device the other time and it did not work.

I do not know what to do.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Damedus:
I already posted Swype as requested the others are pay apps so I can't post my backup. but basically I backed up the market launch from stock with titanium not the one we download. then restored my Amazon market from there and it's updating apps. I have Amazon as default market add in it asks when updating an app what market to use, only bug I have is visual that the charge is not showing and no default bar hider. I have order n chaos and backstab kf editions both work flawlessly Google market backstab crashes. As for dh 2 I see it on gameloft's page. My location can't use Google market to buy paid apps, I use Amazon and gameloft's menu choosing the Samsung tab as device to buy their games. Besides the Gameloft problems that kindle fire editions aren't seen and that some Google market ones don't work.the rest is smooth sailing on mine.but in the last 3 days I got around the Gameloft problems with bluestacks on my PC in root mode, their cloud, drop box and a running backup set of my 6.2 stock, I'm sure once charge bugs are cleared a Dev will pickup the stock Amazon store and simply port it.mine when placed via titanium works but it has already my credentials (I'm guessing this is why I can update it had the app on the list at stock when I updated.

A simpler solution would be dual rom Modaco/ics and use Monaco to update the apps then backup them then run into ics and restore the Amazon store from Modaco see if they update for you like they do for me,I used 6.2 stock backup tho. Only game I still have problems with is taptap 4 which crashes for me in stock also anyways so that wouldn't fix the only problem I'm having. Let me know how it goes but as it stand stock or ics is all a matter of personal look preference both work quite well for a 200 buck tablet I picked up on Ebay for 125 bucks. Ics faster better browsing and tweaks, stock safer no need tweaks for most things has prime and easy access to kindle editions.I held back on buying to many of those but unless Google opens Puerto Rico to make paid purchases those are my best option to get some Gameloft games that the page does not direct sell. My only quirk is that I feel limited on stock just like using Apples ios, which is why I wanted an Android tablet in the first place, and as soon as the prime 700 is out here I'll be replacing my iPad 3 with 1 and keep the kindle as a portable reader

Quick bug report:

playing movies from PicasaWeb albums doesn't work in gallery, it gives error (1, -1004) in logs. Changing Galler2.apk from ths ROM to GalleryGoogle.apk from AOKP M5, solves the issue.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
GalleryGoogle.apk is the one included in my builds :/
[Kindle Fire Android Development] paszczi:
I'm sorry. Of course it's stupid typo. However, the issue is still present.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
You mean you can't enter fastboot? What happens when you turn on the device?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gedemis:
So which one do you have working? :) Gallery2.apk or GalleryGoogle.apk?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] paszczi:
The one which was working is Gallery2. However I just full wiped and reinstalled your latest ROM and now everything is working :confused: Maybe it was just some issue with data (I've recently switched to 2step auth), which was solved by swapping galleries.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Kujila:
...because after you found Kindle fire specific apps didn't install, you felt it necessary to come into this ROM's thread and spout how "inferior" it is, even though I would bet a great deal of folks would say that your stock KF experience offers less than a complete ICS install. I was a little defensive from your "stock ROM jihad" being pulled against ICS, but I have no grudge! :D The stock kindle UI isn't to my liking but a kindle is a kindle is a kindle, right? :)

It's just too bad the KF apps have to be specific as such.

Android16, maybe you can use ICS ROM, change build.prop to stock KF, install KF-specific games and apps, and then change build.prop back to the ICS ROM's build.prop? Maybe that would let you do it, I'm not sure...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Damedus:
They install and work just fine, the problem many people face is updating them since normally once uses the titanium backup method to pass em over to ICS. But ESfile manager is able to to do apk backups of aps (not services sadly or we could just get the base kindle registry ported over to ICS and have it all) and backing up the 6.2 stock appstore with your credentials already in place seems to to allow updating of the aps, however if u want to do that you need to return to your backup of the file/game (losing your new progress) and update every time an update comes cause once you update once google takes over it. this is the only thing I haven't been able to prevent.

Anyone else having issues with Hulu Plus?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] linktohack:
Button Savior? :D
[Kindle Fire Android Development] chrisliphart:
Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but the Hulu problem isn't caused by the ROM or kernel issues; unlike Netflix, Hulu still only works for a small subset of specific devices by design.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Aesrys:
Have that actually, but I wanted to see if he was talking about something different.

How do you hide the status bar with Button Savior?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] tex321:
Actually I am locked in fastboot but I can not connect to it using my computer to reset the bootmode back to 4000.

I am actually having problem with drivers, this ROM changes the way the KF introduces himself to the computer wright? That is the reason I posted in this forum.

I can not think of more relevant information to post wright now,
[Kindle Fire Android Development] brizey:
GestureControl can hide the status bar, and it adds gestures to replace the navigation commands (eg for finger pinch for home).

Can I use this Rom,

If i want to play 720P MKV Files with MXplayer?

On CM7's Barebones Gingerbread i can.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Reivaxx:
It can hide the status bar but game loft games that require the status bar to be hidden still don't work any one else have different results ?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Damedus:
Yes I use button savior.but to hide the bar I kill the process after freezing it it's the only way I found the bar won't come back in the middle of gaming. And just have an unfreeze restore script mapped to button savior pro

Button savior for me has Vol up, Vol down, back, kill bar script, restore bar script

what is the bluetooth apk installed in the rom. does it activate otg bluetooth yet?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] dnathan13:
3.0 kernel activates otg, results have varied, but otg is working There are a couple threads in the general section and I think Q & A section
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Reivaxx:
How you manage to kill the process ? I'm a noob lol.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
sorry i should have been clearer.

i have full otg already working & bluetooth dongle show's up, but on all other roms you can not yet activate it. (so just wandered if this app listed in op would actually activate it).

thanks for your reply.

Can you give a quick tutorial for us dummies? I did some googling for ICS kill status bar scripts, but only came up wit HC ones that do not work for ICS.

Also, I assume you are remapping phone and camera to the scripts, but I could not see a way to get a script to the be the target.

Mods: if this needs to be taken offline to a new thread, just let us know.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] chrisliphart:
Well there you go, someone corrected me. ;) I hadn't tried it on Reloaded, but if it worked there, then it shouldn't take much work dev-wise to get it working here. :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Damedus:
The reason there isn't a tutorial here or the script is the legality . Since you will need a modded apk of the game. But some googling and thinking of your kindle as a galaxy tab might help you achieve what I did. It's far from 100% all the affected games but we might see a new apk that fixes this without needing the moded game then I think it will be ok to post here. If you need more info the check the games do when they run the licenced check is partially responsible for what I gather.
