Small bug I just noticed, if you long press the home button what looks like part of the lock screen circle appears centered n the lower left with only the Google search at the top. Most often the circle disappears instantly, but on occasion it stays. Doesn't happen with Quicknav, only traditional statusbar types.

Screenshots in my dropbox

[Kindle Fire Android Development] got556:
Yep...just keep swiping up from the nav bar and google now will activate/pop up. Semi useless w/out a mic, however.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sagnam:
Even worse, the times that it stays on screen it makes everything else unresponsive. I have to finish dragging away from the Google Now shortcut to continue.

I hope we can get an option added to the backlog making that feature optional.

Chrome Closing Immdiately On Load

So far im enjoying the rom only one question though. Even though its technically an android tablet. Many tablet apps dont show up as being compatible with it (like i can't see the XDA HD). Will changing the dpi fix the issue.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] edgett:
*grumble* I would prefer that I didn't have to jump through hoops with installing another ROM and potentially have OTHER issues popup. I may just go back and try to blow the whole thing away and start from 1.7.2.

Not sure why Chrome isn't the default browser anyway, since I thought it was the default for Jelly Bean. If Google is going to discontinue development of "Browser" then Chrome should be the default in the ROM.

Hey all, just reading through the posts. I havent seen a lot of information on Amazon prime. Does Amazon Prime work on the this ROM? Also, did anybody get YOUBIBLE working??? I am currently running 1.7.1.

No that is what makes the stock Kindle Fire desirable. It is not an android app exactly. Maybe someone has a working apk for Amazon Prime. But I don't know if it is possible.

Acquiring XDA HD or how you can use a backup isn't the point. I was using that particular apps incompatibility to inform any one else that flashing the script and changing build.prop has zero effect on market app availability.;)

[Kindle Fire Android Development] smgulsby:
Can't say with 100% certainty, but I've never run into an issue. I flip flop between jandycane and twa_priv's awesome ROM; I flash this quite a bit.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] edgett:
I guess it is just me...

Tonight I, did the following:

1.) Factory Reset / Wipe data

2.) Wipe Cache & Dalvik Cache

3.) Flash Jandycane ROM 1.7.2

4.) Flash GApps

5.) Reboot

6.) Setup Wireless

7.) Installed Chrome From Play Store

8.) Watched Chrome Immediately Crash Again
[Kindle Fire Android Development] edgett:
I just downloaded and installed the SGT7 ROM, referenced by someone just a few posts ago.

i then installed Chrome and it worked, with no crashing.

It is definitely something with this ROM.

Which is a shame, as I think the status bar positioning is much better on this one. The SGT7 wastes more screen real estate by sticking it at the top of the page. The SGT7 also did NOT seem as smooth. Although location services work on the SGT7 ROM.

Chrome FCs on mine as well, just downloaded from Play to check this. No issue for me, I use Opera ...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sagnam:
Of course that didn't work, you didn't do anything different and certainly didn't follow the directions.

1.) Factory Reset / Wipe data

2.) Wipe Cache & Dalvik Cache

3.) Flash hashcode's jb rom (or almost any JB or ICS ROM)

4.) Flash GApps

5.) Reboot

6.) Setup Wireless

7.) Installed Chrome From Play Store

8.) Launch Chrome, it will not fc.

9.) Wipe Cache & Dalvik Cache

10.) Flash Jandycane ROM 1.7.2

11.) Flash GApps

12.) Reboot

13.) Launch Chrome, it still works.

You can skip steps 1-8 if you are on a JB or ICS ROM with a working Chrome (not Chrome Beta) to begin with. Whenever a future Jandycane update is released you only need to do steps 9-12. Yes, it's a pain in the ass, but you only have to do it once.

I just started using this ROM (1.7.2), was previously on gedeROM (ICS).

Most everything works very well and I plan to stick with this ROM for a while.

I have run into 2 issues so far, both of which have have already been brought up.

Chrome immediately closes as soon as it launches.

I can't get Swype working. When it is set as the default keyboard, the keyboard doesn't display any time it should.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sagnam:
If you backed up gede before flashing jandycane then restore the backup then dirty flash(no factory reset) 1.7.2 and gapps. Chrome should still work.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] BobbaLouie:
Gede has a JB ROM released?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sagnam:
Found a bug with the collapsible status bar and keyboard. If you start dragging the status bar up to be visible but without letting go drag it closed again then the lower half of the bottom row of keys are unresponsive. Changing orientation or showing the status bar and letting it auto hide seems to restore the bottom of those keys.

EDIT: It's not limited to the keyboard. Same goes for clickables in any app. Manually collapsing the status bar makes the area the stars bar would occupy unresponsive.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sagnam:
No, but you can dirty flash JB over ICS.

1.7.2 different

I'm on Jandycane since earlier versions, very thankful for amazing rom. I noticed two small differences on 1.7.2. After each reboot, there are periods of total unrespondings of the screen/tablet. The only button that works is power button - it switches off/on the screen. After couple of such periods, it goes in normal smooth operation as previous versions. I did not installed anything new in the meantime. Tried to experiment installing newest kernel from 30 july on top of everything, but without change. Not a big problem because rom is rock stable so really no need to restart. Second cosmetic difference from previous versions is that volume slider in notification panel doesn't have sound response when changed.

Tried to help kindle community with non-working mic connector and installed alsa-mixer from store in a way to experiment with sound system values that will make external mic (iPhone wired combo worked with CM7 on my Kindle with only one free recording app from the store) being recognized. But anytime i leave alsa mixer and get back from other app it asks for installation again and again. Anyone had experience with alsa-mixer on Kindle JB?

PS Still jelaous for CM10 location capabilities.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] YellowRex:
I think I figured out the constantly looping sysinit service, which I think is my battery culprit. We really only want the /system/etc/init.d/ scripts to be read once, at boot, not continuously while the system is up. So the service definition for sysinit in init.rc needs "oneshot" added to the list of options.

Here's the service definition from my Galaxy Nexus:

service run-parts /sbin/bb/busybox run-parts /system/etc/init.d
class main
oneshot

And the service definition from the KF:

service sysinit /system/bin/logwrapper /system/xbin/busybox run-parts /system/etc/init.d
class main
user root
group shell

Some of this is a matter of taste in how you you want to run your init.d scripts, but I think the oneshot line is essential.

I'm attempting to build a new boot.img with that modification to the /init.rc file, but having a hard time getting my KF to boot successfully with my re-packed boot images.

Would anyone else like to try this and see if it works?

Also, I would love guidance on using mkbootimg for the KF successfully. I'm checking out lithium's source right now and hoping to figure out the command there. If anyone has the patience to help me figure out mkbootimg, please send me a PM or respond and I'll PM you. Or I guess I could start a new thread for that.

Forgot to quote...... but this is for thejuki. When I open the app for the first time it installs like ten themes, then I pick chrome rings under widget options
[Kindle Fire Android Development] thejuki:
You would think it is that simple but it is not. I choose that theme or any other theme and it says it was applied. I go to my home screen and I see it did not change from the default theme which is text only. I actually messaged the developer and the developer said others were also having this problem but alogcat could not pick up a debug log. So that is why I asked how you did it because I am using a kindle fire to apply a theme. Text only is fine but I really like Chrome Rings.

After this, I went on google play and searched for the app. It gives the options "open" and "deinstall", I deinstalled out of google play and after this immediatelly installed the updated version (2.11 ?).
