I installed Go launcher HD and Messagease with this method.

Now my Kindle Fire 2 is finally useful ;)

Thank you very much!

Are widgets working for anyone else? No widgets in Adw Launcher or Go Launcher EX/HD. Workaround is to use the limited "go" widgets when using Go Launcher.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] jmoak:
Widgets are not listed for me with Go Launcher but they do show up and work fine on Apex launcher.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] JAG50:
Thanks for the tip. Go Launcher HD runs faster and smoother than EX.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] onemeila:
Try Apex, runs great and gives the ICS/JB look. Also like Go-launcher ex you can enable gestures to hide the status/nav bars. Full screen is nice and there is always the little tab on the side or bottom of the screen to open them without gestures.

How would I go about uninstalling go launcher, Don't see the uninstall option with the icon and dont want to mess anything up
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] onemeila:
Go to the /system/app/ folder and click on the apk you want to uninstall and there should be an option for it depending on which file manager you are using. I personally use Root Browser.

Will this work for 7.2.2? I would really like to use GOLEX but as I don't have a "Factory cable" or an unlocked bootloader, I don't want to risk a brick as a result of these threads being from October and before 7.2.2.

Thanks,

Madrox.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] iCoN3o:
I works on my re-rooted 7.2.2 kindle fire hd. Install the apk then move it to /system/app.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] D.MADROX:
Thanks for that,

Move then install or install then move?

I've read a few posts which say Move>Change permissions>Install. You say different. Does it matter which way I do it?

Thanks for the reply. :)

EDIT: Decided to bite the bullet and go ahead and install and I can confirm that I have GOLEX latest version installed and running perfectly on 7.2.2

can not move launcher hd

I am trying to copy and paste hd launcher from internal sd card folder to system app folder it says go launcher hd apk copy failed....and when i try cut then paste it says go launcher hd apk can not be moved...system folder permissions are set as rwx r-x r-x and go launcher hd is set to readable=yes writeable=yes hidden=no...

I delieve it has to be in the system app folder before I reeboot in order for it to work...update now working
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] ksound:
kinda off topic, but anyone using go launcher know how to tweak how the folders display?

I set up some folders, but when you click on them the icons are cut off, I know you can make the icons smaller so they fit better, but I'm setting this up for my elderly mom who can't see too well

I've tried, but I can't figure out how to re-size the display bar for the icons inside a folder

This question is wicked OT, but has anyone got target, bestbuy, walmart apps to work on the kindle?

Normally if I can't get something on google play I'll use aptoide, but even that fails downloading those apps

Has anyone had any problems with there top notification bar disappearing?

Im using Nova Launcher but sometimes my top bar is gone, it will randomly flash up when i move between screens
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Krept:
I think it's a problem with GMail. I can't remember the solution, but off the top of my head it was either to log into Gmail, sync it or disable the e-mail from syncing. Logging into Gmail and refreshing stopped the disappearing bar problem for me.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] onemeila:
If you have gmail installed, then that is the cause of this. Not sure if there is another workaround but turning off gmails notifications setting seems to work.

Go Launcher EX and HD

Over the last few weeks I have tried a number of the launchers and found that Go Launcher's performance to exceed the rest.

Also, it is a simple install if you have Google Play installed.

Works out of the box, I spent 3 minutes installing it, then another 30 minutes spent customizing. Go Launcher also has hundreds of "Themes" to choose from, many are free.

I have also installed Go Locker which handles the screen lock.

Has anyone had success in eliminating the Kindle lock screen?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Hinzman420:
I only get the kindle lock screen when i boot up after that i only get go locker

Softbricked Kindle

I agree with onemeila looks like you have a Softbricked Kindle. We have send a handful back to Amazon (within Warranty) and they have replaced every one without question.

Just out of interest, did you try:

Since you have root access you can use adb to remove a system apk. Plug in the Kindle to USB, make sure you have the latest version of the Android SDK or download the Core ADB daemon here and run it from your Windows CMD prompt.

Use these commands:

adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw -t rfs /dev/stl5 /system
rm -r /system/app/[AppName].apk
mount -o remount,ro -t rfs /dev/stl5 /system

If you need to look up a list of apk names on the device:

cd /system/app
ls *.apk

Hope this works for you.

Go Launcher Live Wallpaper

Do you miss Live Wallpaper on the Kindle? Here is a solution!

1) Download LiveWallpapersPicker.apk to your desktop

2) Using Windows Explorer, move LiveWallpapersPicker.apk from the desktop to Kindle\Download\

3) Now go to the Kindle and open ES File Explorer or Root File Explorer

4) Move /sdcard/Downlad/LiveWallpapersPicker.apk to /system/app/LiveWallpapersPicker.apk

5) Modify the permissions on LiveWallpapersPicker.apk Owner: Read/Write Group: Read Others: Read

6) Reboot the Kindle

7) Open the Go Launcher options, select Wallpaper

8) Now select Livewallpaper

9) Choose your new wallpaper

10) There are literally hundred of free Go Launcher Live wallpaper available, check it out in Google Play

Yes, onemeila does a great job when it comes to Kindle Upgrades and Tweaks. Actually, he is a genius,

he really knows the Android OS and is very active in the XDA Community. I am glad that you were

able to find a Thread in the XDA Community helpful, this is what it is about. No one person stands

"above" another in this community, we are all equals with a similar desires. What makes this

forum so outstanding is that everyone seems to enjoy what we are doing and the Moderators do a

great job. I never see people argue or blast another person in XDA, it is just not tolerated. This is a

common occurrence in other forums. You tried other Launchers and they all failed? Wow, isn't

that frustrating! Anyways, thank you for being a part of our community.

[7" Kindle Fire HD General] conalt:
You will have to install the livewallpaper apk into the system folder. I can find the apks for you if youd like.

Or alternatively the easier method is to install KindleFree from the playstore or from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2072198 and let it install the livewallpapers apk and possibly widgets if you havent done so already

---------- Post added at 03:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:33 PM ----------

Go into settings -> Applications -> Installed Applications -> Filter by running apps. Find the "Launcher" app with the kindle logo -> select it and look under "Launch by default" and see if you can select the "Clear defaults" button.

If you can, press the home button and a window should pop up asking you to select your default launcher. Tick the box underneath and select your other launcher program.

launcher stuff

Kindle Fire HD 8.9. Rooted with Google play installed successfully. Go Launcher installed but I can't open. Holo, either. Since root (this is the second time...lost first root with 8.3 update), I can't move apk files from anywhere to system\app folder. When I try, it just adds 'app' to the front of the file name and leaves it where it is. Any idea what that's about? Is there any launcher that will work?

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SammiSaysHello:
To be honest, the article does seem quite absurd to me. There are many points that are pretty ridiculous or don't seem right

1. There happen to be no cases of SIM cards being killed by such a simple code and method. If there were, wouldn't such case have been published by any

reliable

source such as a major mobile provider? As far as I know, the only mention of such exploitation is with this website (which honestly look quite dodgy to me :rolleyes:). The reference website provided by the author mentions no inferences or references to the 'killer codes', but merely states what dialer can do. Also, where are the killing codes? surely, if SIM cards have been around for 15 years, again, there must be

some

sort of publicity or acknowledgement from a reliable source.

2. Again, no case of Samsung phones being wiped in the last 2 years. Isn't the definition of 'exploitation', the act of employing to the greatest advantage? Then, how so, has there been no indication of any 'Samsung only' memory massacre, or anything close to mentioned scale, in the last 2 years if the

? but Samsung sucks, so I'm not going to waste anymore time here :)

That's all I have to say regarding this article. I'm having a holiday right now, so I don't know why I'm going into english critical analysis mode :p

Dude is your WFS rooted???

If yes then go to recovery

1) clear data

2)clear cache partition

3)go to advanced and clear dalvik cache

4)go back install zip from sd card

6)choose zip from sd card and find the zip file you want to install and install it .
[HTC Wildfire S] WiseCrunchyEggroll:
What he said
[HTC Wildfire S] heavy_metal_man:
ok firstly follow this guide to unlock your bootloader.

then install this recovery here by downloading the updated version. placing it onto the "root" of your sdcard. ( that is to not put it in any folder of any kind on the sdcard) and boot into the bootloader by using volume down + power after pulling the battery out.

if this fails you will have to fastboot flash the img, but more on that if you need to ;)

once you have installed the recovery take out the sdcard and boot back into your bootloader (vol- + power) and then scroll down to recovery with the volume buttons and the push power. reinsert your sdcard.

scroll down to back up and make a back up of your phone!!! this is vital, as should you muck up you can simply go back to this ;)

then select your rom of choice and place it on the root of your sdcard. while your accessing your sdcard delete the PG76img.zip unmount your sdcard and continue.

in recovery scroll down to wipe/format. wipe everything aside from your sdcard. then install your rom, and Gapps if it is an aosp type rom.

reboot the device and wait.

if it doesnt boot up in ten minutes reboot to your bootloader and enter recovery. restore your backup and then come back here for help with a list of everything youve done :)

job done ;)

This is probably caused by you flashing a rom that is not meant for Galaxy Mini. Since you can get into download mode (as shown in video), you can just plug your phone into the computer while in download mode, flash stock firmware for Galaxy Mini via ODIN.

Here is a list of stock firmwares:
