I tried both of the new builds hoping, by some dumb luck, that it would fix the dock, but it doesn't.

Any reason to choose one over the order - Linaro vs. non-Linaro?

Is there any way to switch back to the stock Trebuchet if I don't like this?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
Just flash the ROM again. That's the easiest way. Only wipe cache+dalvik - but probably not even that is required.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] YaKillaCJ:
Well thats the thing. DSP only worked once with some random rom I tried but cant remember. Thats why I asked. In my opinion, its the 1 thing every1 looked over and missing from the CM7 roms. Not saying its the Rom Devs faught, just was asking around to see if any1 got it working and I missed it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
No low memory errors in log with 0628 linaro overnight or this morning. I will compare with regular build this weekend.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] serx7:
i'll flash 0628 Linaro and/or non- Linaro later today and see how things go. i have noticed (0626 Linaro) that the homescreen gets redrawn from time to time. i think it's "new" behavior b/c i was surprised to see it happen, and it's happened a few times (been on the last several SGT7 builds exclusively the past week+) . i don't mind the redraws, but it happens enough that i noticed it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sxe:
How is this possible?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
New 20120629 Linaro build is up.

Changes: Includes hashcodes latest 3.0.31 kernel sources.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
Nice! Have been watching his kernel thread all morning for the kernel DL link to come up. :victory:
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
I used the same arm compiler flags (-O3 mainly) as I used for linaro. I also included the Krait bionic optimizations, which made a big difference in regards to benchmarks.

In other words linaro doesn't provide much benefit (at the moment at least). I keep watching other projects that utilize linaro, see how they progress and what's usable for my builds...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pimpmaneaton:
Wow twa you are an update mad man. Keep it coming bro. Thanks for the hard work.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Hashcode:
Looking for some feedback on the 3.0.31 changes. I noted some usb improvements (felt like) but I'm not sure what else might see improvement.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
I didn't really notice any improvement. I got about 1MB/sec, which is pretty much the same as before. I didn't test much though, just copied a few files ...

@hashcode: Is it worth using your KFire-Android/android_hardware_ti_omap4xxx repo instead of CM's default aosp version?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Hashcode:
Don't use the omap4xxx git yet. Its a work in progress. Right now we override almost all of the files from that project anyway.

TI pushed the 512mb support changes into the android-3.0 branch earlier today, and as soon as they put up a 512mb usable ducati, I get to start some more kernel updates which will put us right on the front line of what TI is supporting on OMAP4 right now.

That omap4xxx git will be the altered to match the TI commit that we need to be on since we're so far out in front of AOSP 4.0.4_r2.1 (which is what CM9 uses in their manifest).

Then I can also add some customizations, like instead of omx camera, we can turn on usb camera support, etc.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sxe:
Oh ok, good to know. I'm curious why their demonstration showed that much improvement over the stock android build.

How can i extract CyanogenMod and All Wallpapers from ROM ?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
The wallpapers are in CMWallpapers.apk, Trebuchet.apk in /system/app.

Open them in 7zip or similar and look in the res/drawable* folders.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] MohamedYousri:
i will give it a try ,,, Thanks

is it just me or this ROM isn't a full screen one ? it works very good and so smooth but don't know if this is a problem or it's ROM design :)

also want your opinion All , Apex or Nova ?

Why all KF ROM contain Bluetooth and GPS options ?? removing it will be so nice
[Kindle Fire Android Development] TahrirSquare:
I use Apex, just seems snappier and smoother. You can check the auto hide option for navigation bar, also when you want a full screen when in any app, you can either set the edge swipe (I use top swipe) to toggle navigation bar, or you can push the power button a menu will appear and you can choose toggle navigation bar.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] imtoomuch:
When I play Mad Skills MX the edges of the game get cut off and it gets worse when I hide the statusbar. It seems like this could be related to my homescreen / dock issue.

Am I the only one experiencing this?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rorogio:
its more like off top, but why isn't Go Launcher Ex seen as an option? I prefer it more to both mentioned, as it has its own widgets, themes, and is a lot more flexible :good:
[Kindle Fire Android Development] serx7:
I'm a big fan of Go Launcher EX on my rooted/etc Droid X. Might try it on the Kindle, but I have so few apps on it compared to my phone, I'm just using Apex. I set Apex to open the app drawer when swiping up on any home screen, works out well for me.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] imtoomuch:
I love Go Launcher EX, but the HD / tablet version needs work. It's not nearly as good as EX.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Thepooch:
Flashed the latest build runs like a top thank you twa_priv:-)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] MohamedYousri:
i am very confused creating a wallpaper for my KF ,, the only option is adding a scrolling wallpaper and while i am using only 1 home screen it doesn't fit right

apps like Circular Battery and when enabling weather temp to show at status bar from Go Weather doesn't work , there is a - mark instead
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
Does it work on hashcode's build?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] imtoomuch:
Newb moment - what is hashcode's build? Please, link me and I'll try it. Or do you meant your current 6/29 ROM? It does do it on your 6/29 ROM.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
You can get it from this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=28112026&postcount=1228

Make a backup before flashing.

You can try to only wipe cache + dalvik and see if it works. If you get weird issues you should do a full wipe.

Possible V6 integration?

I noticed GlazedROM has started incorporating the V6 supercharger into their ROM, and I absolutely love V6 on the Fire: it's ridiculously fast, and your ROM is amazing with it. It is a bit of a hassle to set everything up after every update, so I just thought I'd ask if it's possible you could integrate V6 into your ROM? I would GREATLY appreciate it if it's no trouble, as I'm sure many others would.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bender_123:
I am having a minor issue with charging with the new version...for some reason it will show as discharging battery when plugged in, yet it is actually charging. Also it is taking almost eight hours to attain a full battery charge. Anybody else getting this? Otherwise the rom is golden sweetness.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] imtoomuch:
I cleared the cache and devlik and installed this ROM. Yes, I do have the same issue with Mad Skills MX getting cut off. Screenshot below with statusbar toggled off.

http://db.tt/pQlID1On
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
I dont' think this is an issue with either this rom (or any other CM9 based rom for the KF) nor is it an issue with the game. Because as far as I can tell the game works fine with the status bar turned on.

The show/hide statusbar feature is a non-standard/custom thingy so it's entirely possible that some apps don't play nice when you enable it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] airmaxx23:
The battery not shown as charging is a known issue. I have also noticed the occasional extremely long charge time with the latest build.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
Sometimes you need to unplug/plug in the fire to charger a few times until the led goes on. When it's on then it always charges quickly for me (of course the led goes off when the screen goes off). Actually in the last few weeks I had very very few occurences where I had to plug it in multiple times.

I assueme you're all using the charger the KF came with, right?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] serx7:
as a matter of standard practice i always plug in, unplug, then re-plug in when using the stock wall charger.

every time i've done this in the last couple of weeks, I've checked a min or two afterwards and Battery Monitor always shows charging at 1600-1800mA. the few times i haven't done this, i only see charging current in the 400-500mA range.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
I ran zeppelinrox's V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-Update9_RC9.sh on top of my 20120629 build and, quite frankly, didn't notice any difference at all. What exactly is supposed to be faster?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] iesvs:
I've noticed it accelerates the hell out of the launcher, for one--I don't have the lag switching between home screens like I used to get plus it's lightning-fast even with screens full of widgets. I've also noticed quite a reduction in the time it takes for apps to get root access before they kick in, little things like that. I couldn't for the life of me explain what it's doing or how it's done. Hell, it could just be placebo effect, but I really don't think so. It feels like night and day to me going from a standard ROM to this.

Edit: There's also a lot of memory management stuff going on in there I forgot to mention. It's over my head, though.

I got this from mateorod's thread, if that helps.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] imtoomuch:
Thanks for looking into it!

Wait a second. This doesn't explain why the Trebuchet dock gets cut off...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
The next build will include a few "so called" kernel parameter and build.prop tweaks - we'll see if it really makes a difference (or the placebo effect kicks in :))
[Kindle Fire Android Development] webdroidmt:
+1

I noticed the same thing with the launcher, as well as apps and su permission. I was using Autokiller Memory, which I thought did a pretty good job but with v6 things are definitely snappier. I've found that many scripting tweaks are in fact placebo and unnecessary but I believe v6 really works.

It's also hard to argue with zeppelinrox's over 6400 thanks. He's either got to be doing something really right, or he's a helluva' salesman. :D

New 20120703 Linaro build is up.

I added a few kernel and settings "tweaks". Below the list of parameters/settings changed.

Let me know if they really make a difference (positive or negative). Most of the values are the same as V6 would set them (so thanks to zeppelinrox for that).

Modified kernel parameters:

vm.min_free_kbytes = 9420

vm.dirty_ratio = 60

vm.dirty_background_ratio = 20

vm.swappiness = 20

net.core.wmem_max = 1048576

net.core.rmem_max = 1048576

net.core.optmem_max = 20480

net.ipv4.tcp_moderate_rcvbuf=1

net.ipv4.udp_rmem_min = 6144

net.ipv4.udp_wmem_min = 6144

net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 6144 87380 1048576

net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 6144 87380 1048576

Additional build.prop settings:

persist.sys.purgeable_assets=1

pm.sleep_mode=1

wifi.supplicant_scan_interval=180

windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=200
[Kindle Fire Android Development] imtoomuch:
6491 on this build versus 6433 on the previous build. CPU set at 1200 interactive.

Any progress on the issue of the dock getting cut off of the screen?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
As a workaround for now you can go to Settings - Launcher - Dock - Dock app spaces and set it to 4.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] MohamedYousri:
after flashing many ROMs ,,, In my opinion i guess this one is the best , i use Nova Launcher and every thing is OK so far ,, battery drain is OK WiFi signal is OK also ,, So Far So Good :D

2 problems i face ,,, random restart and happen more while uninstalling any app

can't run games like NFS , Asphalt , Pro Evaluation Soccer etc. ,,,,

but every thing else is working great and i like it
[Kindle Fire Android Development] iesvs:
New rom feels like V6

I wanted to test your rom without V6, so I took it off, noticed the launcher slowdown pretty quickly, and now I just loaded the 7/3 rom. No homescreen-switching lag, nice and smooooth. Looks like your changes worked! On a side note, I really don't know if it's my headset or what, but I'm guessing the audio input's broken again? I seem to remember voice search working a while back--now the icon doesn't even show. No big deal--probably missed that one in the abyss of xda.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] veeman:
This score seems really low. This is using performance governor @1.2ghz. :eek: :confused:

Sent from a thingymajig that sends things.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
There's something wrong on your side. I get a constant score > 3100 using the same settings.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
There are some apps/games that when uninstalling them without a reboot between install & uninstall make the device reboot. This happens on other ROMs as well - I point the finger to the app :)

Don't know about the other games, haven't tried them and don't know if they work on other ROMs out there.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Aesrys:
I had problems getting Asphalt 6 from the Play Store to work, no matter the ROM or the settings. To check, I finally broke down and bought a copy from Gameloft directly. Chose Galaxy Nexus as the device. That version has been working perfectly.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] xari228:
I've never used V6, so I had no expectations either way, but I can say that with the tweaks you made for the 0703 build, my KF is responding faster than ever, noticeably so. (I've had it set to Interactive and overclocked to 1200 for the past several builds.)

Many

thanks!

I have problems using USB to PC. When I connect, and "Activate USB", nothing happens.

I installed fro scratch. Did anyne else had this problem with last build?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
See post #2 of this thread.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rorogio:
Thanks it helped!

Seems like it had the ADB interface drivers that were the problem. I uninstalled them, by completely removing them, and restarted KF unplugged.

When I replugged, it saw the device's SD card! And no ADB Interface any more, only the Composite ADB Interface. :)

Set user agent to desktop and press the black button. It works :)

You can hit menu and check box "request desktop" for that session just before you download, then it clears. No need to change user agent.

Dev-Host still has issues with a few of their servers - seems like now they are moving some of my files to a new server. Hopefully this will fix the download problems.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] worldwidepmp:
Why does the browser crash on certain websites with this ROM? Try caranddriver.com as an example. Crashes every time.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
Works for me.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] worldwidepmp:
That's crazy! I can't access it on stock or Dolphin. Pulse app crashes when I try to connect from there as well.

Edit: I can access the mobile site. Try just caranddriver.com
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
That is stock browser. This is the most stable, quick, blazing afterburner ICS ROM I have tried, and I have tried many.

Maybe clear the cache and history in the browsers?? I have never had a browser crash in any KF ROM - CM7, AOSP, AOKP, ICS. Stock, Firefox, Chrome....... (shrug)

edit - search took me to mobile. View full desktop site at the bottom of page works fine. If I edit the URL to remove the mobilelink at the start, it puts it back. I looked at the desktop site on my PC and it looks the same as this capture.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] worldwidepmp:
I agree that this is one of the better ICS ROMs I've tried, but I can't seem to get a fix for the browser problems I'm having, clearing the cache and histories didn't solve it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
Both caranddriver.com and m.caranddriver.com work fine for me also (tried stock browser and chrome, with and without modified hosts file using AdFree).

Did you look at a logcat and see if anything useful is in there?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] worldwidepmp:
No, I haven't but what I find interesting is that my browsers work fine on Gede's ROM but on yours and Hashcode's I get the crashes. Common on all three is that the status bar clock and battery meter freezes.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] Jessical:
I've never had this issue with the other ROMs, but sometimes on this one it'll reboot for whatever reason. I left it to sync with doubleTwist earlier and the screen went out and the device wouldn't come on until I plugged it into the wall charger. The thing was however charged at 90%.

Just things I've noticed. However the ROM is very nice.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] :
The moment I saw my Kindle and realized that Google market would not work in it, I felt bad for not having done enough background reading before purchasing it. I am very grateful to you for providing me a rom to make this into a good tablet.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] old_pocket:
zattoo not working

Seems that one of the later updates killed zattoo for me. Apart from that I also have the impression that the v6 changes improved the overall smoothness "somehow".

New 20120708 Linaro build is up.

Changes:

* Cherry-Pick: Frameworks-base: Fix wifi-sleep-policy

* Added new init.d script (02oom) which sets the lowmemorykiller as V6 would set them (thanks again to zeppelinrox and his work)

* Modified a services frameworks/base class to skip writing Out-Of-Memory (OOM) / lowmemorykiller values (which otherwise would overwrite the changes done in above init.d script)

Let me know if you notice a difference (good or bad) and if any new issues come up.

Thx
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
What do you mean by "killed"?

Do you recall when it was working last (what build)?

I can't test it here in the US because the app isn't available here it seems.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] iesvs:
So far so good. I haven't really tried anything intensive other than the game of Final Fantasy III I'm on, but it does feel ever snappier, just like if I installed v6 (which at this point is obsolete, right?).
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
So far I covered all build.prop and kernel/oom parameter changes (some are slightly modified). V6 does some other stuff like sqllite optimizations which I haven't looked into (and probably never will). There are, however, a few more kernel parameter changes I'm going to look at and maybe include in the next version.

w/ the WiFi sleep policy set to only when plugged in, i see ~1%/hr rundown (slightly less than 1%, usually) during deep sleep. not sure how that compares to CM7 as i never ran CM7 on my KF.

That's pretty much the same battery usage I am seeing - which should be the same on all ICS/CM9 ROMS.

The battery on CM7 definitely last longer though.

You need to expand the combined bar. Touch the date or time to expand it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] TahrirSquare:
:), belive me I did so, It's not my first ROM, I checked the options, expended the combined bar, all I got is the power widget. will try flashing the ROM once again.

After flashing the ROM and GAPPS, I did a restore data only from the ROM backup I had from the old ROM I was using. could that be it?

Aright, All working Now thanks for such a great ROM!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
I personally would not restore data backed up from another - why don't you use Titanium Backup?

I would start over, do a fresh install (factory reset). Then check if it works as expected.

I was on the new Energy ROM, I did clean install and it's all good now :)

Bug

There's one bug but it could be on the kernel side, the volume cuts out in the middle of some games. I experienced the same problem before with GedeRom. Thanks
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
If it also happens with gedemis's ROM then yes, possibly related to the kernel.

I don't play games usually but on the few I play I've never experienced sound issues. Can you give a few examples of such games?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] serx7:
I don't game on the KF but I do use the kybd a lot (w/ the keyboard sounds enabled). I get keyboard sound cutouts intermittently on this ROM as well as gede and Hellfire (that I've noticed). It cuts out, and comes back again after a short time. It may have also happened on Trojan38's Vanilla but tbh I've started tuning it out, so if it did happen on Trojan's Vanilla build/s, I didn't even notice.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sthomas38:
Yes, this is a kernel-side issue that I've already told Hashcode about, with logcat & cie :).
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
I'd like to keep the sgt7 sources I'm using for this rom as "vanialla/unmodified" as possible and don't really want to make changes as such - sorry. The only slight modification I've made so far is to remove the Airplane mode from the power menu.

I'll tell you the one I use for my son, It's called "baby Explorer"
