13 minutes ... that's how long a single build now takes on the new server I bought for myself as an early christmas present :)

Now all I need is skills to fix the kernel (or graphics driver) to have a usable display on 4.2 .... but unfortunately I'm lacking those.

Does anyone by chance know if this also happens on hashcodes's or lithium76's rom?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] tgamble160:
Sold my kindle fire about 2 months ago,then started missing it so I bought a new one today and I gotta tell ya man this rom made it worth it it is the first rom I put on here and it will stay until you update. Thanks for your work man!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] imtoomuch:
I am getting these weird artifacts on Mini Motor Racing. This did not happen on your ICS ROM.

Any ideas on why or how to fix?

My Widgetsoid weather do not disappear after reboot, but just show "reloading" infinitely. When I tap on widget place it's loading fine.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] animez:
I have a Beautiful Widgets weather widget that does not persist through a reboot. That is the paid version, but I have the location set manually.

Sent from my Jandycane Fire
[Kindle Fire Android Development] BobbaLouie:
Hmm, been using Widgetsoid for a long time and know for a fact there is no weather.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] evasionoftruth:
Same for me, along with setcpu widget
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gett:
My mistake!! :o Fancy weather! Sorry
[Kindle Fire Android Development] TexasRules777:
I only flashed the first two releases of both their ROMs but the weather widget I used did disappear from them as well.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] :
thank you

I didn't think I would switch my KF to JB because the 7/5 rom maintained by twa and hash was so solid. I had flashed lithium and hash's aosp and they just had so many problems and ran very poorly, so I held off. Just flashed this rom last night, and all I have to say is wow. Thank you twa, it is a great thing you are doing, and the rom appears great for daily use. -asf
[Kindle Fire Android Development] leswgnr:
The news and weather widget that comes with the Rom combined with the latest gapps never successfully connects. Worked fine with the 7/17 Rom and 7/11 gapps.

New build is up.

20120721-2129 (Alternate download)

Changes

* Tablet bar expanded settings

* Update volume slider to jellybean master volume

* Remove notification volume slider

* Stop settings button from overlaying notification button

* Prevent recents from covering the system bar
[Kindle Fire Android Development] imtoomuch:
Thank you!

I get 3046 on Quadrant. And the artifact problem that I had with Mini Motor Racing is gone! Coincidence or did you change something that would have fixed this? All I did was clear cache, davlik, and then I flashed the ROM and then the Google apps.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
I haven't changed anything ... Maybe some of the recent CM changes fixed it :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] BobbaLouie:
Tested a bit more this time.

Used both Apex Pro and Trebuchet.

In both instances the free widgets all survived a reboot, all built into the ROM except the Chrome bookmark widget.

Free Widgets are: Calendar - Gmail Inbox - Chrome Bookmarks - Built-in Analog clock

All paid widgets gone after reboot:

HD Widgets 4x2 - Widgetsoid 5x1 - Gauge battery widget 2x1

Otherwise very efficient and smooth, excellent job so far dev! As an added bonus, for me anyhow, the twa_priv JB ROMs are the only ones where I can actually open Chrome settings and it doesnt crash. I kinda wish I had gone the dual-boot route, I'm doing it anyway except manually backing up ICS ROM then loading JB ROMs in batches and fiddling with them. So far this appears to be a clear winner for me.

I will post bugs as I see them, not intending to be a pest. It gets confusing trying to follow several different large ROM threads, and can be confusing to an old fart like me. :eek:
[Kindle Fire Android Development] imtoomuch:
Thank you. I'm loving this build so far!

First Linaro build is up: 20120722-0055-Linaro

This is the first build with some possible optimizations still pending. I did some basic testing and all seems to work. So if anyone wants to give it a shot ...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jcatt:
Looks interesting but for the sake of comparison I just ran Quadrant and got a 3193 with the 20120721-2129 non Linaro build. I will test it out in a few, see if it makes any difference...

Edit: Could take a bit longer, forgot my battery is basically dead..
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Thepooch:
Don't knock yourself bud you do excellent work no matter!!

Yayy I was hoping to do that just gave you your 2000th thanks congrats!! Or at least I think I did;)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] :
TWA, did you see this post from Hash's thread

Sorry if this was already posted...I'm not near a computer and search sucks on tapatalk
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
I saw Mike's post - but doesn't location services already work on CM10? At least Google Now, Maps etc. show the correct location for me.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Hashcode:
Android 4.2 is coming, It's taken quite a while to figure out our kernel issues and how to best solve them on our 512mb device. So now its just a matter of getting it done.

And it might be followed up with a whole new kernel, or get released with it. (depending on how long its taking)..

3.4.19 kernel based on TI's omap5 branch is booting. But needs some cleanup.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] webdroidmt:
Yes you are correct, that was directed at Hashcode's & the Jandycane AOSP roms, which do not have location access working. As you stated, CM10 based roms already have this ability. That's why I posted it in Hashcode's AOSP rom thread. ;) I'm hopeful that this "fix" will be applicable to AOSP on the KF.

As an aside twa, you are/have been doing a fantastic job building and supporting this rom. Thank you.

Mike T
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
Thanks, can't wait :). I already tried a CM10.1 build earlier today using your p-android-omap-3.4 branch but I ended up in a boot loop.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smgulsby:
TWA since I use my phone or tablet xda app I can not see if you have a donate button. I know for me, you have been the most supportive dev for any ROM I have used. I would be more than happy to help support you for once.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Thepooch:
Agreed
[Kindle Fire Android Development] swieder711:
I am supporting one of those tablets and cant get the Kindle app to run. It immediately stops running. I also cant remove it in order to try reinstalling it.

Any suggestions.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] :
Interesting. I guess the location services issue is unique to me...I just assumed that it was a universal issue... I will do a clean install...been dirty flashing for a while

Sorry to waste your time

Edit - formatted everything...clean install...still no location services... odd... wonder if having the dual boot bootloader is somehow giving me this weird phenomenon
[Kindle Fire Android Development] webdroidmt:
Just some stabbing in the dark here. Do you have location settings turned on in 2 places? One is in Settings/Location access, I have it turned on and put a check mark in both choices under Location sources. The other is turning it on in Settings/Google/Location settings.

As an example, If things are set up properly, when you first install the rom and try to access Google.com on your browser, you should be prompted to share or decline your location. If you share, your location should appear, if you decline, it stays unknown.

Even with Google Now, when you first set it up, it will prompt you to turn location settings on and if I remember correctly will bring you to the location settings page.

So yeah, it should be working for you on this rom unless as you stated, the dual bootloader is somehow causing the issue. Or, do you possibly have a unique gapps package instead of 20121011, or are you using the newest JB gapps that was released yesterday but was found today to be incompatible with 4.1?

If all else fails, I would make a nandroid of your current dual boot setup and start totally clean just installing this rom and see what happens. Good luck, hope you get it going.

Mike T
[Kindle Fire Android Development] :
I will check it out and work through it when I get home tonight...thanks for the post Mike, will update. -asf
[Kindle Fire Android Development] webdroidmt:
Cool! Will look for your update to see how it goes for you. Location services works for me with Google Now, Browser, Yelp, Flixster, Google Maps, News & Weather, would hate to see you miss out on all that good stuff. :D

EDIT: One more thing, I seem to remember from early JB days that sometimes if you have Google Maps installed it may help to trigger the location services into working. Not really clear on that but if you don't have Maps installed you can try that too.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] yaibakt:
i have google maps and facebook working great with location services on this rom.

Is there a better build than others?

My girlfriend KF got a bit instable, laggy recently. I want to reflash a rom, but I don't know which version to choose.

The latest?

Last night, my KF system-froze multiple times. I can duplicate one instance: watching an embedded YouTube video on the default Browser.

Also, I've been using my KF for only 18 mins so far today, but the battery drained 3%. Clean install.

At 22 mins. I don't know what's causing it. Brightness at lowest, no mods.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] isaiahhhhh:
I must be missing it but is the force tablet ui no longer included with this rom?

***Edit*** I found it my bad
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
Hmmm ... my initial thought was that either the ondemand governor or one of the kernel changes is causing this. But deep sleep is working for me with ondemand on 20121126-2035. Did you reboot after you switched governors? Because if you don't your logcat will get spammed with such messages:

E/TI OMAP PowerHAL( 319): Error writing to /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/interactive/boostpulse
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
I have been using ondemand/deadline since like forever, set by NofrillsCPU. :laugh:

This is the first time I have not seen deep sleep and two or three days of battery life with about one and a half to two hours a day of use, otherwise it is on standby. You can see the uptime there. :good:

Forgot to include I'm running 1127 on Hotplug.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Trevomader:
My kindle has been pretty unstable on build 20121127-1605-Linaro, ran it for 2 days and had to hard reboot it multiple times a day, sometimes it just froze and other times i lost the touch screen input, by pressing power button it would show the power menu but i couldn't issue any commands through the touchscreen so i had to hard reboot it anyway.

I reverted to 20121126-1946-Linaro for a day and no freezing yet, so it seems to be stable.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] tehloxely:
What is this "deep sleep" everyone is talking about?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] yaibakt:
wifi deep sleep, i guess.

i just gave my KF another try with wifi direct.

this time, i use my laptop as a wifi hotspot, set up an adhoc network on it and share. and my KF sees it real quick and connects with it smoothly. on the other hand, i still have no luck with my mobilephone Nokia E5 as a hotspot. it's a little bit sad cause i could do that with the KF's stock rom. now i have to buy a wifi hotspot, or another phone to use with my KF outdoor where there's no normal wifi :(
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gg_99:
CPU deep sleep. Apps like CPU Spy will tell you how long your CPU has been running at various frequencies. The higher the frequency (e.g. 1200 MHz) and longer time at that frequency, the more the battery drain. Deep sleep is the lowest/ideal state for best battery life.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jaegorith:
Also happened several times to me too with the default browser using the latest build. Completely locked up the device.

I installed the Google SDK on my home computer recently so I can try to submit a log file when I run into issues. But does anyone know if a logcat can be generated when the Kindle Fire is frozen?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] wolf45801:
i just installed the 11/27 build on my new kindle and i noticed that im getting a image burn could it be the rom or is it the kindle?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Guitarman:
Flash it back to complete stock and send it back to Amazon. This has happened to Kindle Fires that weren't even rooted or customized. Sounds like it is a manufacturing defect in some way but I don't know for sure. I just Googled "image burn kindle fire" and this issue is unfortunate but I found some people were posting on the Amazon website about the same issue but they weren't rooted or anything.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] wolf45801:
well i would do that but they dont know i have it lol
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Hag77:
Mine gets temporary burn if that makes sense.. It also has the charging issue.. I don't want to press my luck sending it in though, since they already sent me a free fire HD 7 (and didn't ask me to return the old kindle that now runs this rom!!)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Ixthusdan:
Stats for 1127 rom. I use conservative governor.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jma9454:
How do they not know you have it? did you buy it from craigslist or something? I believe that if you got it before it was rooted and ROMmed, then you would have it attached to Amazon. If that is the case, and it is still withing the original one year warranty, they will send you a replacement for free (probably) Even if you didn't initially purchase it.

How did you get a new one for free?

I don't know how often it is, but I also get temp image burn. I just figured this was normal. An example is when I launch Scramble with Friends. I will play a round (which takes about 3 min, because i use the extra time thing) and it will have the 4x4 grid of letters "imprinted" on the screen for a few minutes. Is this not normal?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] wolf45801:
um we had a replacement sent and when it came it wasnt where they said it was so they sent a new one and i found the first one so i rooted it and added jb lol
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
All is well now with deep sleep on 20121127 build. I did change to interactive governor and rebooted after seeing earlier that deep sleep was OK with on demand as well.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] jaegorith:
I ran SDK Manager on Windows 7, and added the path to the platform-tools folder to the Path environmental variable.

Plugged in the Kindle Fire via USB (Android debugging enabled), and from the command prompt I entered "adb devices". The response is "List of devices attached" but nothing is listed.

Tried "adb root" and I'm getting "error: device not found."

In Device Manager the Properties for Amazon Kindle Fire says the driver is not installed, but when I let Windows try and find the driver, it can't.

I can turn on USB storage and use Windows Explorer to see files on the Kindle, no problem.

I would really like to submit a logcat when needed, but I'm stuck at this point. What am I missing?

Thanks in advance.

Yeah. I've been having the same problem and would love to fix it. Tried setting it cpu to interactive and various settings but it always seems to sod when left unattended for any length of time. I suspect it's having issues with deep sleep mode.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] sharonbw:
EDIT: you understand what factory reset is, right? You have to restore everything from your backup.

Original comments:

You should redownload the rom and try again.

Someone told me once the order you wipe is important but I forget what they said so I always wipe in the order they are listed in twrp (I think dalvik, cache, factory reset, system) then I wipe dalvik/cache again after flashing the rom. Anyone want to comment on whether order matters?

Has anyone tried cannibal open recovery with this rom?

---------- Post added at 08:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:00 PM ----------

Well I can definitely tell you this is not normal.

I would guess it is a side effect of something you've installed or some setting you changed. It kinda sounds like the swipe gestures. Did you maybe mess with those? If not I would have to guess it's an app you installed.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sharonbw:
For some time I've been noticing weird crashes that seem related to swipe gestures (which I actually don't use but it happens when my finger gets too close to the edge). It happens randomly in many different apps. Sometimes the app just crashes but sometimes I get a dark screen (not off) and have to reboot. Any ideas?

Logcat: http://db.tt/mNixnS1c

Edit: I don't know how to identify the relevant portion of the log but I saved it immediately after rebooting so I'm hoping something near the end shows what happened. I thought it might reset on boot but based on times it doesn't seem to have.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
I think you should switch to the default interactive governor, disable samepage merging (which is the default) and see if it makes a difference.
