This rom is just perfect. The only thing that's missing for me is a wifi on/off switch in the notification bar, which most of the other roms seem to have. That's barely a deduction though and keep up the good work.

Actually, you're right. You just need to be in Phone UI mode.

I raise this only as a question because this ROM is a work of art in my opinion. Smooth, fast and stable.

I use SwiftKey and it keeps disabling and defaulting back to the Android keyboard. Anyone else encounter this? Any tips for getting it to stay?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jamminjon82:
Same here
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Ixthusdan:
I use thumb keyboard. I disabled the android board but kept voice. The ui sometimes stops coming out of sleep, but always restarts and I keep my choice keyboard. Removing voice was a no-go.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] markcyst:
No problem here with SwiftKey.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
That's a google issue.

See here: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=34880

It all depends on the play store version you have installed. If you happen to be lucky and have the 3.7.15 version (there seem to be different ones with the same version#) which installs to /data/app then you shouldn't have any issues. If swiftkey is installed in /mnt/asec then this is probably the issue.

You can try to uninstall/reinstall swiftkey - maybe google play installs it in /data/app. Then you should be fine. If not you could try to backup the app using Titanium backup (or similar), uninstall it and the restore it using TB.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jaegorith:
I've been having the same problem with "SwiftKey 3 Tablet" paid version. I have the 3.7.15 version of Play Store. I just uninstalled SwiftKey and reinstalled it, and went through the wizard to set it up as the default. I checked Settings and it looked good, but then rebooted and my changes reverted back to the default Android keyboard.

Also, I don't have a "data\app" folder that I can find. I have "sdcard\android\data\" and inside are the various app's folders, including "com.touchtype.swiftkey.tablet.full".

Correction: SwiftKey is installed in the "/mnt/asec" folder, along with one other app: this xda app. No other apps are in there. Can someone provide a link to the gapps that installs to "/data/app"?

UPDATE: twa_priv was right about Titanium backup! I used it to backup, uninstall and restore SwiftKey and it stays as the default keyboard after reboot! Thanks twa_priv!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] collindv:
I believe it is in the root folder, not sdcard.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Trialz Nexus One:
This is Great ROM!!

I timidly tried this ROM expecting that after a few hours f experimenting, I would go to the the last stable ICS version...Very happy I was wrong in this regard; almost every app works...Google Translate being the exception. I am wondering if this is due to the last update of Google Translate having OCR and possibly looking for an on board camera? Any one else with this issue?

Also, there is a bit of lag between when you commit the screen to an action and want to use and of the software keys at the bottom of the screen. have to pause a few secs before it registers.

I am staying on this JB nonetheless. It is free of bloat that the other ROMS seem to like.

Looking forward to the next update.

:highfive:
[Kindle Fire Android Development] BoulderGeek:
Any chance that a symlink could make the system think that /mnt/asec is properly populated?

I don't have my Fire with me, so can't test.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] melmantheman:
Do you have to do a clean install (wipe data and system) if coming from ICS (Glazed ICS) or can i just wipe the cache and dalvik and install?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jstrom23:
Thanks for the quick response twa_priv! I'm always impressed by the extensive knowledge of the devs on this forum.

Sure enough, it is the purchased apps an the new encryption setup in JB. SwiftKey is in /mnt/asec. I tried backing it up with MyBackupPro, but that doesn't seem to work on /mnt/asec. (Side note, root access in MyBackupPro seems to be problematic because it's a purchased app and also in /mnt/asec).

I'm going to play around with it. I'll let you know my eventual workaround.

Thanks again!!!

UPDATE:

Genius! The fix worked. Had to run things a few times, but MyBackup Pro eventually backed up an APK which I then restored by sideloading in File Manager. Rebooted and SwiftKey persists. Thanks for the tip!

Is there any advantage or problems that may arise from flashing the ROM over itself? My idea is that this is a form of reinstalling and possibly cleaning up the /system files without losing /data.

Sent from my CM10 KF w/ Tapatalk
[Kindle Fire Android Development] StarkCity:
Yep, in my case, while slimming down the ROM, I accidentally deleted the systems main font lol. I flashed over like you're talking about to get my font back. No data loss, but any mods you've made to the system files will reset.

Anyone else using the Apex beta? I just switched over yesterday and the icons are all smaller now. Can't seem to see a way to get them back to the original size. The beta does seem better performance wise but I prefer the icons a bit bigger.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] mlkjuggalo:
I use Apex pro v1.3.0 beta1 and my icons look to be the same size :) but i do find Apex to be a smoother and gives better performance with this rom also :good:
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Badgerino:
Interesting. I'll try a reboot. I switched back to Phone UI and then back to Tablet to see if that made it revert back but no luck.

Might try an uninstall and reinstall as well if I have to.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] mlkjuggalo:
the only other thing is it might be something with the dpi did you use the zip a few pages back that changes the dpi so you can install themes ?

my setup / install was

wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache

mounts and storage format system

wipe dalvik cache

flash rom

flash Gapps pack

advanced fix permissions

reboot system

then setup and all works and looks as it should :) I didn't use the DPI zip
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Badgerino:
No, I haven't used that zip or messed with the DPI.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] mlkjuggalo:
very odd i have no clue what it could be . Do you have a screenshot of the smaller icons ? could the issue just be that the icon with the app is just smaller image ? are all the icons smaller or just a few ?

Edit Are you using the free or paid version ? not sure if this would make a diff or not .
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sweeds:
With the problems surrounding charging the KF, what do you all do if your Kindle reaches 0% battery? It doesn't seem to have enough juice to even know it needs to charge. The power btn LED isn't coming on.

I'll let it charge powered down overnight, but has anyone else experienced this?

It should go well

I did move from jandycane without wiping data.

Just queued the zips for rom, Galaxy Nexus patch, and Gapps, viped both caches and rebooted.

First boot was laggy and it took 10 mins for device to stabilize. After that I made one more reboot just in case and the device has not stoped working since ::cyclops:
[Kindle Fire Android Development] GezaEchs:
Is anyone else having trouble finding apps in the Play Store? An article I was reading last night lead me to look for the game Horn!, but I couldn't find it for love nor money.

I've got the 0808 build of twa_priv's ROM (flashing the new one later today), and used his .zip to disguise my Fire as a Nexus (including resetting the necessary information in settings).

Edit: Also, if we install the new build over the 0808 build without resetting system or anything, will we have to reinstall Gapps or the .zip that twa_priv has put up? Or will those flashes remain intact?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] webdroidmt:
A simple search for the game Horn for Android would reveal: http://androidandme.com/2012/08/gam...nture-title-horn-coming-to-android-next-week/ :rolleyes:

When flashing a new version of this rom, you should not have to reflash gapps and only need to wipe cache & dalvik. If you intend to continue using the Nexus zip, you will have to reflash that.

Mike T
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jaegorith:
I had also flashed the "Fire to Nexus" utility on that version of the ROM, but I still didn't find the XDA Premium HD app that some have been able to see in the Play Store.

However, after flashing this new build, clearing cache and Dalvik, and then rebooting, the XDA Premium HD app appeared in the store! I did not see the Horn game though.

I didn't even need to install Gapps again. Everything is just working!

My device reverted back to Fire from Nexus, which I expected. But I didn't expect to see the XDA Premium HD app in the play store.

I wonder what other apps to search for that would/should appear?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] veeman:
Horn isn't out for Android yet.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] GezaEchs:
Strange, the IGN review of the Nexus 7 discusses Horn! on the tablet, which lead me to believe it had been released. Still, thanks for the information - but no need to be sarcastic.

Thanks, that's very helpful.

When people don't take a little time to read, or even a simple Google search, sometimes a little sarcasm is a good thing. Most of the time, Google makes it pretty easy to help oneself.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] BobbaLouie:
Any way to make the status bar transparent in system settings? It was under "System >> Status Bar >> General" as I recall in the CM9 version of this ROM. I'm guessing I may be looking right at it and not noticing it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] dadeo1111:
I don't find it either. You might go via your web browser to play.google.com/store and poke around that way - varying your search terms.

You needn't wipe to install twa_priv's updates to this rom, After flashing new rom, wipe cache and dalvic and you should be great.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] GezaEchs:
Thanks, updated with the new build and verified in settings that it's present. Seems great so far, though I'm not noticing any major differences as of now (which shouldn't be a surprise - it seems to be an incremental update).

I flashed the "change to galaxy nexus" .zip at the same time, right after flashing the build update and wiping caches. Wiped cache / dalvik again, rebooted, and went into settings - seems that it's disguised successfully as a Nexus without the need to clear Google settings. XDA Premium HD shows up on a basic search, so I assume the disguise is holding.

Thanks again!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sweeds:
I'm experiencing a constant battery discharge when the Kindle is not in use. I flashed the newest version this morning, and about 5 hours later, without awakening the device, it's down about 15-20% battery.

Battery monitor widget pro shows a graph with no idling, aka constant discharge. The battery usage is 40% android OS, 15% WiFi, and 15% Android Idle.

Looking back in my battery usage history, this seems to have always been going on, the constant discharge. But I really noticed it this morning.

Does anyone else have a similar situation and do you have any particular solution?

No FC's here. Do the standard factory reset but also wipe Dalvik and format /system then flash. If that doesn't work, maybe re download the zip. Seems stable to me.

I don't have any solutions, but just verifying these two posts. I've had a steady battery drain - about 10 - 20% in the past two hours - with my Fire in sleep mode. Equally, I did have a SystemUI crash, but only the one (I was opening Tablified HD at the time, and attributed the crash to that).
[Kindle Fire Android Development] eoy4:
You should check for wakelocks, caused by apps that prevent the kindle from going into "deep sleep" mode. Use CPU Spy or BetterBatteryStats (from Play store) to see what's causing the wakelock. For me, it was google now. Since I disabled it I get about 1% battery drain per hour while asleep. That's not so great, but it isn't as bad as the numbers you're getting.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Badgerino:
Free version. All icons are smaller. I rebooted and had no change. I'll probably uninstall/reinstall.
