With both SetCPU (max 1008/min 200) and Battery Widget, my KF temp is running well below 96* F, right now at 80* F. I have settings in SetCPU to throttle cpu speed at higher temps, and alarms in Battery Widget at two steps if it goes up. Neither one ever triggers. I do not do intensive games, so maybe that is why.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] powerpoint45:
Battery seems pretty good for me as well
[Kindle Fire Android Development] waffull:
The extent of my gaming is words/scramble with friends. I haven't made any changes to the default rom settings. Normally I change the governor from interactive to save battery, but since the performance part hadn't been added to the rom yet, I didn't bother.

My KF usually runs at about 70 to 75 degrees during discharge and 85 to 95 during charging. It's been running at about 100 since 1.5.1 was installed. Also noticed its getting quite warm on the lower 3rd edge (and a little on the back) , which it hasn't done before. (In portrait mode)

As a general rule I always wipe system when updating a rom. You might lose a few manual tweaks, but seems to cause more harm not taking the extra few moments to wipe system.

Is anyone else have location services problems? Also, I've also noticed that when you hit recent apps the screen previews are rotated on their side?

Besides that ROM is running smooth and great. I'm not having any heat problems like others. (Wiped Factory, Davlik, Cache, System)

1.6 released

Bumping this thread to announce the release of version 1.6. The big change in this version is the introduction of the Quicknav tablet status bar. Touch the bottom of the screen or slide your finger up from the bottom to reveal the quicknav panel. This gives you quick access to back, home, recent apps, and menu on the first level. Press the "+" symbol to reveal a second set of options including notifications, settings, screenshot and search button.

If you need to dismiss the quicknav panel, simply touch a region outside of it and it will go away (or press a button).

​
[Kindle Fire Android Development] mcaxrb71:
Awesome, I'm going to try this now. It will be the first time using one of your ROMs. :highfive:

*edit* Hmm, for some reason my wi-fi isn't working. It just keeps saying "Obtaining IP address", then it eventually avoids the network. It is WEP secured. Not sure if it's the ROM or just something weird with my router.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] alexmcchessers:
I like the"fan" effect of the quicknav menu, but I'll be sticking to the collapsible bar myself, since it otherwise takes two taps to see my notifications rather than just a quick swipe.

It seems that pressing "home" on the collapsible bar causes a white circle to briefly appear around the icon. I noticed the same thing in 1.5 but not 1.5.1.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] 0xD34D:
Assuming you have the collapsible bar already out, then yes a quick swipe, otherwise that would be 2 quick swipes :p

This is just another option for those that want it. I like the collapsible bar, but I am digging the quicknav panel even better.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] fox_dye:
Its like Christmas everyday with all the updates. Thanks for all the hard work man.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] alexmcchessers:
Well, I meant being able to see if I have any icons in the notification area.

I'm not complaining, it's just my preference. It's an awesome ROM all round.

I'm having a really hard time getting this to work with adb. It comes up as an Android Composite ADB Interface, and doesn't show up in the list of adb devices. Am I doing something wrong?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] 0xD34D:
I get those messages in logcat as well but my wifi is working just fine. Maybe there was an issue with the startup script in init.d which fixes the mac. You could try running fix the fix-mac.sh script in /system/bin and see if that clears it up. This is just a guess since I have never had this issue occur even on a clean install.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] narume:
I kept having wifi issues with this ROM also. The only solution I could find was to do a full wipe, including a system wipe and then install the very first build, which is 1.0 . Booted up and connected to my network then restarted back into TWRP and only wiped both caches and flashed the update. Ever since I haven't really had any issues with wifi. However, I swapped to twa_priv's ROM and decided to come back since 1.6 was released, so I wiped system just to be on the safe side and I once again had to follow my previous steps as Wifi wouldn't even turn on. Wifi works fine now though after flashing over 1.0 .
[Kindle Fire Android Development] waffull:
I'm running 1.6 now. Flash procedure used:

1) wipe system, caches, etc

2) restored my 1.5.1 nandroid backup

3) wiped dalvik cache

4) installed 1.6

5) wiped dalvik cache

6) rebooted into system

7) rebooted into recovery

8) installed gapps 7-17 jb -signed

9) wiped dalvik cache

10) rebooted into system

Wifi is working fine. Oddly enough I did have to add my Google account back.

Still running very hot. Battery is currently at 81% and is discharging at 92 degrees. Quite uncomfortable to hold. Seems peppier and smoother than 1.5.1, but just too hot to hold. Ill go back to glazed beta .2 until the overheating issue can be fixed.

Thanks for releasing regular updates :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] alexmcchessers:
Ah, fair enough. Because it disappeared (or did it!?) in 1.5.1 I thought it was some debug code left in to show that the bar was receiving touch events. Or something.

When I enabled the new Quicknav toolbar, my KF's touchscreen calibration was thrown off by -2 inches. Everything was fine in recovery, however. Reflashed v1.6, touchscreen is fine.

Whats the reason, that we can not use the whole screen for apps/widgets as in other ROMs? There is at least one row on top/bottom - left/right which can not be accessed.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] alexmcchessers:
That is more to do with the launcher than the ROM itself. Try an alternative. I use Apex, which makes your home screen layout very customizable.

Since I am really sick and tired of continually wiping and then restoring the device only to find yet another bug like this, I will probably go back to CM9 unless this can be fixed in 1.7.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] YellowRex:
Thanks for the reply. :)

The wifi does work and connect to my home network.

The location service doesn't though, and if I re-enable location services, I get a constant stream of attempts to get a location with no wait time between.

These errors, both the p2p wifi device and the sysinit repeating, might be the cause of the CPU usage and keepawake times that are killing my battery and making waffull's KF too hot to hold.

I played around with some of the config files but didn't come up with a fix.

Problem with Wifi

I was having what I thought was problem with one of my wireless routers. I have two Kindles and installed 1.6 on both. I was having problems connecting to my Trendnet G router with both of them. Then I notice that when the Wifi was turn on, on either of them it would totally knock this router off to where none of my Wifi devices would connect to it. That would be 3 laptops and 2 more tablets. But then by accident I shut the Wifi off on both Kindles and everything was back to normal and I could connect my other devices. I confirmed this issue by turning the Wifi on and off again on my Kindles. Anybody have any thoughts? I ordered a new router but not sure that this is going to solve it. Other than this little issue the ROM is amazing. This has been the only real issue that I have had.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DiscipleRob:
I remember there was an issue before where people with more than one kindle fire would crash their router because both KF's were using the exact same MAC address. Sure sounds like it could be the MAC address in your case, too. I think Hashcode had a script that fixed it in his 3.0 kernel thread. Hope this info helps you.

Rob
[Kindle Fire Android Development] narume:
Does it do it when only one of them is connected? I have this exact same problem with mine. The only solution I found was to do a full wipe, including system and then flash version 1.0, boot up and connect to your network, then reboot leaving wifi toggled on and go back into TWRP and only clear the two caches, then flash whichever updated version of the ROM you want and it should be fixed. Just make sure if you flash any new updates that you only wipe the two caches.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] vestus:
I just flashed the 1.6.2 over my 1.6 install and it worked great. Once I enabled the V2 interface, however, touch imput is off by about 3" towards the button end and I can't even get the bloody thing to turn off. :) (Hold power button to get the menu, press 'screen shot' and Power Off is selected. Getting 'Ok' in the following menu hasn't been so easy).

I guess I'll wipe once it's out of juice.

Quicknav question...

How do get it to show up?. I only succeeded about 1 out of 30 tries and have no idea what I do differently othe now total of 4 times I was successful.

Also, any way to add fast access to the notifications, clock/date thing? I like have easy access to all of that and it's two two extra steps with the quicknav since not even the clock is showing..

I wish these things had a few buttons. Volume, programs list, and expand notification bar. That would make these tablet devices a lot more streamlined. I hate that it takes me multi steps to get basic things done, like seeing the date.

Anyway, reason for my post is simply to get instructions on using the quicknav applet.

Thanks

How do you get the quicknav semi circle to show up? There has to be a place to tap, swipe, etc. I watched the video and doing those taps/swipes almost never did anything...

I like your clock, etc, but its still not viewable all the time, you have to be on the desktop. I guess the standard bar is the best, just wish it it was more customiAble, like the windows start bar is...

Is there any way for me to remove Trebuchet? I'd like to use the built in launcher if possible (I prefer a completely stock experience).
[Kindle Fire Android Development] freestylejunki32:
If the stock launcher is already installed along with trebuchet, you should be able to go to settings->apps and find trebuchet, select clear defaults. After that, when you press the home button it should ask you which launcher to use. Pick the stock one and select always. If the stock launcher isnt included in the ROM (not sure i am running a different rom at the moment), then you will first need to find the apk for the stock launcher and install it in the system/app folder and fix permissions then repeat the process that i stated above. After the stock launcher is in the system/ app folder you can use root explorer to manually delete trebuchet if you so choose or use titanium backup to unistall it ( only unistall it if you already have another launcher installed and in the system/app folder).
[Kindle Fire Android Development] revxx14:
Having trouble finding the stock APK, any idea where I could look?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] freestylejunki32:
If you downlaod the stock nexus 7 base image (just google it), you should be able to unzip it from your computer and pull it from the system/app folder then copy it over to your kindles sd card, then using root explorer, mount the system/app folder for read and write, then paste the apk taken from teh nexus 7 into there, fix permission on the app to read, write and execute, then reboot i beleive and it should be installed as a system app after reboot (someone correct me if im wrong..been a while since ive moved apps into system folder)

What is the file browser on this ROM?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] 0xD34D:
File browser is built from the MIUI open source file browser.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] 0xD34D:
Easiest way is to slide you finger from just below the screen up to the bottom 10 pixels. It should be displayed without issue when you do it this way. At least that is how I am use to doing it.

I'm not sure if the standard bar is best. The reason I came up with the quicknav solution is because I think the standard tablet status bar is a bit bulky for our device and I do not like the phone UI on a device that is considered a tablet. I've taken this opportunity with Jandycane to think a little bit outside of the box and make something I feel is quite functional for our device. However, I did not want to force this UI on anyone so I have made it an option rather than a requirement. I'm sure this interface will evolve as time goes on and it may end up in other ROMs. :D

Here's a preview of notifications count in the quicknav panel.
