[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] verygreen:
0x807c5000 is the address where our replacement bootloader is loaded.

Boot partition is used by amazon uboot to get various properties like serial number of device, wifi mac and what partition to boot from.

1 is normal boot, 3 - recovery, 2 - diagnostic kernel (don't boot it if you don't know what you are doing), 5 and 6 are boot from USB.

the need to load uboot address is never disappearing, but updater-script in the install zip takes care of that.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] bqq100:
Thanks verygreen! Couple of add-on questions: Why do you need such a long string repeating the memory address? Is that the part that exploits the bug that fattire found in the stock uboot? 0x807c5000 would be 2GB into storage, wouldn't that be in the userdata partition? Does the updater-script in the install zip also take care of making sure that the custom uboot gets put at the correct address?

Really appreciate the help!
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] verygreen:
Repetitions of the addresses is because we don't really know exact location of the return address, and yes, that's part of the fix for the bug fattire have identified.

Regarding offsets, I think your math is off, it's just a dozen megabytes into /system.

The updated boot.img is already generated to contain uboot at the correct address, so the only job left for the installer script is to write it in place.

verygreen, can we use this for kindle 8.9?

Maybe Hashcode could help us out as I know he has a lot of experience with TI hw.

Also, this tablet seems to have similar specs:

I am not familiar with dev. While I think there might be some difficulties on kindle hd 8.9 as it could be difficult to find drivers for this particular device and it is also actually slow to have a cm 10 available currently. So is it easier if we start a dev from cm9 which is ICS same as the system buildin?
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] F@@dog:
Have you benchmarked your 8.9 yet? I doubt that there is going to be a problem with "drivers" for this tab once we are in Beta.

[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Hashcode:
Development for the KFire HD 8.9 is progressing rather nicely to my point of view. I just haven't released anything yet. :)

I'm working on Android 4.2.1. And the kernel is fully migrated to 3.0.50 (which matches AOSP kernel/common)

Right now I have display running a newer version of the gfx blit system + powervr libs built for jellybean, bluetooth, hw accelleration, and sensors.

I'm currently updating the wifi driver to match AOSP, and then I need to troubleshoot codecs/camera, graphics memory allocation and audio.

Almost every facet of the device is running updated drivers.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] timnan:
Best gift in this holiday. Are all hardware working?
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] F@@dog:
Hashcode, thank you for the update. Nice to know this project is taking shape. You need to spend some Holiday time away from all this and feed other needs. I am sure all of us can wait a little while longer for something we hoped for sometime during the coming year.

Question about backing up kindle 8.9

I am trying to back up my kindle to try the cm10 rom but keep getting the following error.

remote object '/dev/block/mmcblk0p9' not a file or directory

when I run the adb shell su -c "chmod 777 /dev/block/*" command su ask for root privileges and I Grant

adb pull /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 command give the remote object error.

Thanks for any help.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] slacka-vt:
You need to give the file you're pulling a name. Verygreen omitted this key item in the OP -must have been an oversight. The command is incomplete.

It helps to name them what they are so that you know which ones to flash when you want to restore. For example mmcblk0p9 = recovery.img mmcblk0p10 = boot.img and mmcblk0p11 = system.img

The commands should be:

adb pull /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 recovery.img
adb pull /dev/block/mmcblk0p10 boot.img
adb pull /dev/block/mmcblk0p11 system.img

I got it to build finally, however after running all of the adb commands (I'm at the first fastboot command) my device is stuck in "Kindle Fire System Recovery". I tried unplugging it and powering it off, but running fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product and plugging the device in will not boot into fastboot mode, just goes back into recovery. ADB does not work either. Anyone know how to fix this?
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] arda99:
what's the version of adb and fastboot? did you try the binaries from amazon sdk?
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] FroyoShark:
For Linux I used the latest adb and fastboot, and for Windows I used the ones with the KFHD System.img Recovery Tool, which worked just fine for me in the past.

Where do I find those binaries?

EDIT: Found the drivers, and installed them with the SDK manager. Still not working.

EDIT 2: Found a zip file with an exe file that also had the drivers, still not working.

EDIT 3: It's showing up as "Jem-PVT-Prod-04" in my Device Manager.

EDIT 4: When I try to install the Amazon drivers for "Jem-PVT-Prod-04", it says the installation was successful, however when I restart my device it shows that there is no driver installed for it.

I know T-Mobile let's you break up phone purchases on your monthly bill while still being on contract. Basically paying retail for the phone, but having bit split up.

Does Verizon do this?

[General Questions and Answers] papabear:
I knew exactly what you meant, and responded as such. I really doubt they do. Really only way to find out is to call or go in a store and ask.
[General Questions and Answers] Pennycake:
This kind of defeats the purpose of going to Verizon to me. They have such ridiculously high prices for their services, the least they can do is subsidize the phones you get. Making you pay for the phone plus their service charges would be insane.

I'm hoping you're looking for a replacement before the 2-year upgrade cycle. If that's the case, why not just put it on a credit card or similar ? For big purchases like this, you can often get no-interest financing - bam, broken up into monthly payments, or you can pay more and get it done faster.

One reason I see Verizon not offering this is because T-Mobile's plans like that are basically unsecured loans - so they have people just walk out on them without paying. They can block the IMEI, but I think it's a pretty bad business move but maybe it works out for them somehow.
