Anyone having problems with weak or slow wifi with Milestone 6?

Any alternate kernels for Milestone 6?

Any chance of a volume slider in notification are coming back?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] wunit:
For ms6, i am unable to get into the Navigation Bra setting page of AOKP.

Just face FC when loading that page.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] TahrirSquare:
"Navigation bra" LOL!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sbell7105:
volume slider is really the only thing missing for me
[Kindle Fire Android Development] harry_fine:
Does Hashcode's kernel work with this Milestone 6 ROM or is it included with Milestone 6?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] mazenimad:
Thanks man i think its working, have to play with it for a weebit :good:

Just before the the back navigation button, theres something called "Navigation button quantity" just choose 4 or 5 or whatever works with u :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] mgrunk:
Thanks - I told you I was being dense - not sure why I read it quality not quantity.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Techrecycler:
Some sure can point the way :D

Seriously though. What kernel are you guys finding works best with build 40 or MS6test?

+1 for volume slide's return.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] harry_fine:
I was also wondering if this ROM contains hashcode kernel or if there were advantages to using it.

And +2 for volume slider. Other ROMs all seem to have it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Ectoplasmic:
I thought there was a way to manually hide the navigation bar with this rom? If there is, I don't see it. Not all apps support the auto hide feature.

[EDIT] Found it - although it wasn't obvious. Here are the steps in case anyone else is searching for a way to hide the navigation / status bar in Android Open Kang (currently build 40):

Settings -> ROM Control -> Power menu options -> Show navigation bar toggle (ensure is checked)

Now when the power button is held for a second, there are additional commands/icons, like home and back. The new power icon (not the identical Power Off icon) will actually toggle the navigation bar visibility! Not intuitive, but I'm really glad it's there.

I think this is actually a pretty sweet feature for apps like Perfect Viewer and Cool Reader. They are great apps, but they don't properly dim the status bar in ICS, so the auto-hide feature will not kick in.

And for completeness, here is the other setting that affects the navigation bar visibility:

Settings -> ROM Control -> Navigation Bar -> Auto Hide (ensure is checked)

This will cause the nav bar to hide automatically if the app uses the proper commands. MX Player and VLC work with this, but Perfect Viewer and Cool Reader do not.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Ectoplasmic:
I think I found a bug. Once I use the hide navigation bar feature, if I start to drag a desktop icon or widget, the screen automatically rotates. When I release the drag, it rotates back. I'm not actually able to complete the drag. Toggling auto rotate off and on fixes this, but it will happen again if I manually hide the nav bar.

Is there any way to disable Auto-rotate screen, and keep the tablet in landscape mode? If I uncheck display->auto-rotate screen, it immediately flips to portrait. This doesn't happen with CM9, at least not the version on my other tablet.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] linktohack:
Find it in Notification/Toggles.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Coolman4now:
Is there anyway to put a "Volume slider" under the "Brightness slider" on the notification area ??

I think that Build 36 have that but all other build don't, or I am confused!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] harry_fine:
I've asked that same question several times, but there is no answer from the developer, he is likely busy on other projects. I don't understand either how it could have been included, and now is gone. This ROM doesn't seem to have much traction or action.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Lorenzo VonMatterhorn:
aokp

how do i install this on 6.2.2? i am rooted with twrp installed, but when i wipe data, install the zip and then gapps , i reboot and get nothing. just a black screen . what am i doing wrong?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] TahrirSquare:
So you're doing a factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, wipe system and then flashing the ROM and GAPPS and getting a successful message and still nothing? I would try to redownload, make sure you do all the above wipes and then flash again. Try another ROM and see if it works for you to see if it is ROM specific for some reason and let us know.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] StarkCity:
In some occasions, for some weird reason you need to double or triple wipe everything. I've personally never had to. But have seen it discussed in multiple forums.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Lorenzo VonMatterhorn:
thanks man. i guess ill try that. but besides that it should work? im not missing a step or anything?

[Kindle Fire Android Development] iscander.drake:
After all... I'm thinking about trying something like this if AOKP team has troubles with our device
[Kindle Fire Android Development] tipzilla:
I am sad to see that the support will be ended on this device. Maybe someone else will release AOKP. I was thinking about seeing if I could implement the volume and brightness slider on this rom as I like aokp a little more than cm9. I have been using 0xD34D's aokp as I think its a little better than this none.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Nahte27:
I understand the Fire is getting a little old (and the Nexus 7 doesn't help) but considering that the Fire holds a massive share of android tablets, I really think it's a bit too soon for them to be dropping support.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] VaksenDK:
No worries! L!TH!UM is back and once again our hero.

So actually I see this as a step forward, since I too found his builds a bit better and more stable than the official ones (as also mentioned above). And that is actually not that strange, since he owns a KF, which none of the official AOKP-members does.

Not to sound dense but what is the diff between this aokp and the one lithium76 is putting out? Should we be getting the builds from you now? Thanks
[Kindle Fire Android Development] linktohack:
Looks like wifi won't work. Flash Hash's kernel seem to be okay...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
and, did aokp update their device tree to properly accept the 3.0 kernel? I know lithiums build does, but did they make the changes for this build to have it?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] dw9906:
Yes they did
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Stephen.k.spear:
Dude there is only 2.5 pages in this thread and I have said at least once on each of those pages that the build bot built its build with an old kernel use the build from the test link. It's fixed on gerrit and will be fine for build 38

The difference is this is the official AOKP supported builds. Lithium76 is building from our source with some mods of his own. I don't know if he will continue to make his builds, I havent run them so I don't know the differences...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] portezbie:
Few issues I've noticed:

When I open apps the nav bar glitches

Titanium backup freezes when restoring apps randomly

No option for auto hiding the nav bar as far as I can tell (although this seems to be common to all the ics roms I have tried)

Not really a bug - low quadrant scores - I have noticed this on other aokp roms too
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
Feels good, missing the sound slider so far that I see. I'll report more as I see it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Stephen.k.spear:
Hiding the Nav bar was mentioned on the page before this one. I haven't seen an auto hide feature. When does it automatically hide?

[Kindle Fire Android Development] linktohack:
Wrong post, sorry.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Aesrys:
Awesome, thanks. Knew I was probably missing something. Both worked great for me.

Found one weird thing (definitely very minor). If you hide the nav bar like you mentioned and then bring it back, the button spacing gets very large. Hide it again while in an app, and then restore it, also while in an app, and it goes back to the normal smaller spacing. Happened to see it while hiding the bar using Netflix. Like I said, definitely extremely minor, just thought I'd mention it.

---------- Post added at 07:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:12 AM ----------

Just curious which apps? Netflix goes straight to landscape mode for me when I play. YouTube does its typical, starting in portrait, but going to landscape if I full screen (or turn the Kindle).

A couple of things you might check:

1. Nova Settings - > Look and Feel -> Screen Orientation. Mine is set to Auto rotate

2. System Settings -> Display -> Auto-rotate screen
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Stephen.k.spear:
There's an auto rotate button in romcontrol general ui, settings display, and in both of the launchers. I don't know why everyone thinks they need an auto rotate button but they're is a bunch of them. If you make sure they are all checked your video will rotate fine..I just verified on my kindle.

Sent from my Glitched AOKP Unicorn.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Stephen.k.spear:
when the Nav bar starts or is changed via romcontrol it automatically determines spacing by available space. So if you want them close make your changes/unhide in portrait they will be close together if you want them spaced out make your changes in landscape for them to be spaced out.

Should be it was fine in testing. Haven't tried it on this build. I'll confirm when I get home from work.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Evo_Shift:
How do I get the clock back on the left where it is supposed to be like in the landscape screenshot in the op rather than next to the edge of the screen? I like the order to be clock, signal, battery but on mine it is signal, battery, clock. I see under status bar options clock on right but there is no left option.

Or is that just one of the customizations we can't change of this particular rom?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Chaleman:
I think this is the best Kindle Fire ROM.. Kudos..!!

One quick question though... I have an iPhone and I'm trying to use the Personal Hostspot on it to share the mobile connection with the Kindle, but with this ROM the Kindle doesn't see the iphone's wifi after scanning.. It sees all the others.... Is there a way around this?

Thanks!

[Kindle Fire Android Development] TexasRules777:
Well a reboot and removing an extra button I had added to my nav bar seemed to have fixed the issue. I had set all of my auto rotate buttons to off and that also helped. It was weird it was just streaming news apps (world news,rt,Rte,France 24,etc) and any apps that I used mx player on. Now it seems that hwa isn't working as well as it should. BS player when selected immediately shuts off when used and mx player won't use hw decoding to stream videos but Netflix and you tube work fine? I've been using vanilla rom and the seemed to find a commit by hashcode on his latest kernel that was messing it up. Commit was removed and hwa works perfectly on vanilla rom once again. Don't know if that has anything to do with it?

Edit: vlc player and mx player both work fine using software decoding but switching to hardware decoding they stop working.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] JOEOZUNA4U:
do i just flash "aokp_otter_build-37-Glitched-2012-05-25-01_03.zip" and gapps? also, what gapps do i flash? gapps-ics-20120429 ?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Stephen.k.spear:
I don't use any of those players. If one app is working and another is not it may be an app issue. Have you used those apps on another ics ROM?

Sent from my Glitched AOKP Unicorn.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] TexasRules777:
Yes with vanilla rom. My video apps default to bse player ( which uses hwa) and mx player ( which auto decodes but uses hwa at launch) but immediately appear to launch but revert back to the apps main screen when launched. Selecting vlc player ( which uses software decoding by default) or MX player ( switching to software decoding only) apps will work. These same apps work fine using hardware decoding as default with vanilla or gede's cm9 roms. Also while Netflix works, it doesn't auto expand to complete full screen when playing. There seems to be space at the bottom where the three dots on the nav bar are.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Stephen.k.spear:
AOKP doesn't have auto hide yet. You need to hide it from the power menu.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] TexasRules777:
Ahhhh got it. Thanks
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Stephen.k.spear:
I'm looking into it now might have a test out later.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Aesrys:
Awesome. Even the manual hide works fairly well, but an auto hide for the apps that support it would be nice (I want to say it's an actual Google API some apps use, but I could be wrong).

One question I can almost guarantee will come up is the ability to play Gameloft games on the ROM (I've seen it posted on almost every ICS Rom thread). Certain games, like Ashpalt 6, don't seem to want to work on the KF with ICS (I've yet to find a ROM that would play that game reliably, at least the version you can buy from the Play store). Probably not a huge issue, but I can promise it will come up at some point, so I thought I'd just get it out of the way.

Like my Fascinate build, this ROM works really great for me and I'm glad to see it on the Fire. Thanks for all the hard work (and I have donated previously to put my money where my typing mouth is).

Yep auto hide works great with Netflix and gallery! Still can't get hwa with some apps but I realize this is still a work in progress. Thanks for the update!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] TexasRules777:
Don't know if these problems have been mentioned but I'll throw them out there...while wifi works the icon never turns blue,just stays grey. And if I don't go into rom control on reboot and add a nav bar button and then remove it, the nav bar buttons are " squished" on some apps. Adding and removing one of the buttons fixes this problem.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Thief777:
Icons disappear hom back return....

The icons are hidden in the picture looks great.

Do not certify a blue icon!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Aesrys:
Tried with Netflix, Google Play books, YouTube, and the Kindle Fire app. The 1st three worked great, but the Fire app didn't full screen (just showed the 3 dots thing, but since it's the only one, I'm guessing it's an app specific thing).

Thanks for the update.

---------- Post added at 10:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:11 AM ----------

I think the nav bar thing was mentioned in a previous post. My wifi icon does turn blue though.

I have one potential issue with the menu buttons. In certain apps, most notably ES File Explorer and Comixology, when the app open, the buttons look strange (see attached screen shot). When you touch the menu button, a noticeable bit of the bar around it is highlighted as well.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] TexasRules777:
Weird ..I've rebooted and deleted and re added my wifi network and it's still grey. Well I did flash this over the last update so I guess a fresh install is in the works for me. Edit: A fresh install fixed it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Thief777:
Hidden with the disappearance of navigation buttons fixed a by changing the location of these buttons in landscape mode, and now they have become wider and do not disappear in the applications)

Can you persuade them to build for the Amaze 4g?! I have to live vicariously through others phones/kindle fires!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] haydonxda:
Argh. Lost my post. Okay, here are my results.

Playing an mp4 video in:

Built in media player: works, has small letterbox stripe on top and bottom on video perfectly sized to display. (Probably an app issue!)

MX Player: works perfectly!

Mobo Player: does not work (probably has no full screen support)

ES Media Player: does not work (probably has no full screen support)

A short media encoding diversion:

For those using ffmpeg to encode video for the Fire I've found the top settings you can use are high profile and "slow" preset. That'll encode video that can be decoded by the HW decoder when using recent builds of ffmpeg. More aggressive presets will revert to the software decoders or be unplayable. More tweaking might be possible. If you've got better settings PM me. :)

Example:

ffmpeg -y -i <inputfilename> -r 29.97 -crf 20 -filter:v yadif,scale=1024:-1 -sws_flags spline -preset slow -profile:v high -aq 90 -ac 2 <output>.mp4

This would be if you're coming from higher resolution 16:9 content such as 1080i HDTV. You can adjust crf to suit your quality/space needs.

I'm very very happy about this! Thank you!
