Anyone have problems playing games with this ROM? Seems like they will work for minute or so then just freeze on me.

Any ideas?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] gg_99:
That's my experience as well. I just wasn't sure if that was the expected/designed behavior.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Trevomader:
Isn't it because of the default 1200 overclock causing overheat lockups?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
Nobody can give you a useful answer if you are not specific.

* What build (gcc47 or not)

* What app/game (free games are better, I'm not going to buy a game just to test)

* Exact steps to reproduce

* Any changes made to the performance settings
[Kindle Fire Android Development] skaroger867:
I did a fresh install of the latest version from the 15th. And I did not mess with any of the performance settings. I installed the amazon app store and installed a few of the games I got as free app of the day, like block story, and peggle and when I was started peggle it only let me shoot twice before it froze. Same with block story (didn't get over the mountain)

I'm going to try lowering the CPU as mentioned earlier and see what happens.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Badgerino:
It is for me.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jaegorith:
Thanks for this new ROM! I'm noticing a very minor thing with the boot image. When the device is booting up, the boot image first appears very wide and pushed off the screen near the top. After a few seconds later it then appears at it's usual location and size in the center.

It happens all the time, but never did on the previous CM10 ROM. I did a full wipe (cache, dalvik, data, system) twice so far, starting with the 12/17 (1321) sgt7 build, and then the 12/19 (2356) gcc build.

Will a logcat help (assuming it's possible to generate one during boot)?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] FaridShenassa:
Linaro version coming

This may be a silly nOOb question, if so I apologize, but are the other patches/fixes twa_priv applied to his CM10/SGT7 ROM, including Linaro, eventually applicable to this version as well? or are the obsoleted by CM10.1/JB 4.2.1 now?

I know, twa_priv may not have gotten around to doing it, testing it. I just wanted to know technically if they are still applicable or obsoleted by 4.2.1 now.

twa_priv, hanks for all the hard work
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
I have no idea what sgt7 features the sgt7 folks will port to 4.2.1/CM10.1 - we'll see. At the moment, besides a few framework changes, only the Launcher is ported as far as I can tell.

I switched to Google gcc7 instead of Linaro gcc47 for now because linaro causes Opera crashes on certain sites. I don't think there's much of a performance difference anyway.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] damngood98:
could someone be kind enough to explain the differences between the gcc & non-gcc versions please?

This ROM is sooo smooth I love it. Deep sleep works perfectly and no sod yet anyway. Thank you :) is there any way to make the status bar bigger though?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Thelgow:
In the process of restoring the regular cm10. This one just looked and felt too weird. Thumbs hurting from trying to press buttons in landscape mode, and icons crazy small in status bar.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] FaridShenassa:
Thanks for the explanation. Installed it and works great. However, at least for me, it seems to have more of a response time lag (touch response, invoking apps) than the prev twa_priv 4.1 linaro version. Was just wondering if this version is not overclocked like the cm10/4.1 versions of hashcode/twa firmwares.

thanks again
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
Both CM10 and CM10.1 ROM are overclocked to 1200MHz.

I don't notice any lag nor do I have touch issues. Have you adjusted the touchscreen filter level in settings -> advanced ?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
I uploaded a new build that fixes this issue.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] That Baker Guy:
rom seems to be running pretty smooth for me. nice to see the oc has been implemented. what ever happened to the volume slider?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] nonchalant rage:
i think the only thing keeping me from using this rom is not having tablet ui!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sharonbw:
I really miss it too. :( Can anyone tell me why it's not included? So sad.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] That Baker Guy:
in 4.2 there is no tablet ui they are moving to a unified layout. IE the nexus 7 and 10 have the same ui in 4.2
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Ixthusdan:
If you use Apex, you can get a sort of tablet. The gestures can hide the status bar and the tray. See the images.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sharonbw:
Wait, what? I thought it was called "tablet ui" because it was a better interface when using a *tablet* (both portrait and landscape IMO). Why would the nexus be using what is essentially a phone layout??!!! CONFUSED :confused:

Go launcher HD gives an artificial tablet layout as well although it is inferior as a launcher to Go exe. Neither solves the problem of buttons being inconvenient to the left hand.

How's this ROM so far? If the stability is decent, I'm willing to try it and help with the reporting.

No issues here - did play very long but the time I played all was fine.

I've had bad luck trying to play Call of Duty Black Ops Zombies on this rom. Usually I'll only get as far as the first "Activison" screen that pops up when you load the game, then it quits back to the homescreen.

Unfortunately the game is $6.99 :(

[Kindle Fire Android Development] waffull:
On 1/15 build. Still no deep sleep. I always do dirty flashes. Did it this time, but since no deep sleep, I did a clean flash and no deep sleep on that as well.

Does the newest build need those two lines added to the build file?

I've been intentionally not using my KF since updating to 1/15's build (and after having some deep sleep issues with prior builds). Picked it back up this morning and in 16 hours of just sitting in my bag, both my battery and deep sleep percentages are 98%. I'm running bone stock and without any build.prop modifications.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smgulsby:
Deep sleep for a 24 hour period was well over 37%; this is with heavy usage.

Thanks to everyone!

[Kindle Fire Android Development] bflobills:
I hate to say it, but no deep sleep also for me on the 1/15 build (using CPU Spy). Did a complete wipe - both cache, reset & system. ROM is working fine however, but overnight battery drain is still an issue for me.

I will re-download the ROM and check MD5 this time, then re-flash and see if it takes care of the problem.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] MrBrady:
Fixed my "WiFi not turning off" deep sleep issue (KF was deep sleeping with wifi on, no matter the wifi setting) by creating a simple Tasker profile that puts the KF into Airplane Mode if the screen turns off for 15 minutes. Now the KF sleeps like a baby!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Damedus:
Also Having Deep sleep issues on 1/15 build. Also the screen looked to be back lighted(even tho its black). Flashed hash's base AOSP and the issue wasn't there, clean flashed this again and it was there again.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] loCe45:
Ok, i was wondering, why do you leave your wifi on if you're gone for ~10-12 hours ?

Wifi is a battery drainer, always was and always will be, on any device, from phone to tablet to laptop...

Sorry but those of you that are *****ing that dont have deep sleep, there's probably a very good reason for it. If you leave your wifi on, most likely there's some rouge background app/service which set a wakelock (prevents deep sleep) and is downloading/uploading stuff without your knowledge... I tried 3-4 versions of this particular ROM so far, and i had no issues whatsoever.

Also, saying "deep sleep doesnt work for me" is not enough. Try clean install, and for a brief period (while you're testing) refrain yourself from installing 100 apps.

I had really really annoying battery drain issue couple months ago (on my phone), and it turned out it was caused by facebook app...

[Kindle Fire Android Development] twa_priv:
Well said. Don't post about deep sleep issues until you did a clean install without any apps and observe for a little while. Then install app by app and see which one is the culprit.

Also, deep sleep / battery consumption works very well even with wifi enabled all time. See http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=36757049&postcount=568

It all depends what apps you have installed that synch while the screen is off.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] freestylejunki32:
Yes i use su first then the fix permissions but it cant find the script. I chrcked in xbin but it isnt there thiugh im not entirely sure where it should b in the first place
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sharonbw:
I did clean install of 1/14 + no apps (except bbs) and got zero deep sleep.

I did clean install of 1/15 + no apps (except bbs) and got all deep sleep.

Even after I reinstalled all my apps still got full deep sleep. My wifi stays on because I use my Kindle a LOT during the day and usually don't think of turning it off at night. Since it's usually plugged in at night anyway, who cares?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jaegorith:
Dumb question, but should I expect the device to get deep sleep while it is charging? Because it never does, and I turn off wifi, sync, email, FB, etc. when I'm charging. It stays mostly at 300MHz. No performance settings changes.

On the very positive flip-side: if I'm not charging, and the screen is off, and no wifi, sync etc., it deep sleeps for days. I just checked it before I replied to this post and it was in deep sleep for 25 hours! :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rickyq12:
OP says to flash with latest TWRP, I believe I have 2.2.2...I think.

This will be my first time flashing a ROM on the Fire.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] Roseysdaddy:
Go to settings... WiFi...options (3 vertical dots in upper right corner) ...advanced... Then change the option for WiFi during sleep. Then you don't have to worry about remembering to turn it off.

Just for the record I have flashed all your builds always leave all Wi-Fi, sync on with no deep sleep issues, the gcc builds are my favorites. Many thanks.

Just to report back I lowered CPU speed and changed my I/o scheduler and enabled force GPU and I haven't had any issues on the game end. Played for about 30 minutes. Thanks for the help
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ttakacs:
TWRP 2.3.3.1 works fine as well. Whatever issue in 2.3.x.x that was creating problems was fixed in 2.3.3.1.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Hashcode:
There is a kernel setting which doesn't let the device sleep while USB is connected.

So that's by design.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] waffull:
For the record, even though I hadn't written it, when I did the clean install, the only app I installed, besides gapps BC I needed the play store, was cpu spy. I let it sit, untouched for an hour and was confident at that point, with deep sleep showing 0, that waiting longer was of no benefit.

To me it's common sense that when trying to diagnose a problem, you start with the lowest common denominators. Maybe that's simply BC I've been an IT admin, developer & manager for 23 years.

Since I can't see if deep sleep is being used without CPU spy, I had to install gapps, which is necessary for android to do anything anyway. And since it's the OS where the deep sleep issue shows up, there was no need to start installing apps one at a time.

But I did not simply say deep sleep didn't work. I thought it would be obvious that I waited to see if it went into deep sleep, after all, without time, there would be deep sleep. And I also thought it would be obvious that if I said I did a clean install that I didn't install a whole bunch of apps and start using the device, BC that clearly defeats one of the main reasons for doing a clean install and if I was using the device, it wouldn't have been able to go into deep sleep.

It's a dev forum norm to lead ones comments or questions by informing the readers if you're a noob. That's what I did when I first starting xda and what most people do. Since this isn't a support thread, but a dev thread, the assumption should be that when someone gives some info, they have already done the common sense steps to try and fix it on their own.

But for people to ignore a comment and question, and then say that we are *****ing, which I wasn't, I was sharing info in hopes it would be helpful, and then to make a false statement about wifi, is simply rude and unhelpful and makes you sound like one of those right wing nuts that believe in divide and conquer instead of working with people to make things better for everyone. And yes, the latter comes in the wake of the NRA preferring to threaten the children of the President instead of being part of the conversation about the problem.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] loCe45:
Clearly you got offended by my post, and after reading your reply i cant see why, because it was not meant for those few of you (sadly, minority) that go through all the procedure, rather those that come here to ***** and moan without even properly reading the OP. They are rude and unhelpful and my rant post is meant for them. I dont like when someone is being unappreciative and ungrateful to devs/mods that find free time in their busy schedule and give to the community, free of charge.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rysk29:
any idea why screen shuts off even when vid is playing in stock browser?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sharonbw:
I definitely hear where you're coming from. I personally ranted on a different thread about the same thing. It wasn't useful there either. As you may guess, the people who read it are NOT the people who don't read the op and make demands on the dev.

I personally did not observe anyone reporting failure to enter deep sleep who seemed to be whining or expecting anything. We all were trying to be helpful as this odd glitch was sorted out. (Odd because it clearly wasn't affecting the majority but was 100% broken for those of us it did affect.)

Anyway, the problem has been solved. YAY! Thanks twa and hash!!!!!

Re: [ROM] [JB 4.2.1] CM10.1/SGT7 for the Kindle Fire [20130117]

I flashed 1-17 and all is well. I was one of the people that had deep sleep issues with the builds between 1-8 and 1-15, and I can confirm that 1-17 goes into deep sleep very well and runs as buttery smooth as 1-15. :)

[Kindle Fire Android Development] dethknite:
Kindle issues -- I have been using SGT7 builds for a long while now and only switched to Hashcode's AOSP build recently around christmas due to the speed of him releasing 4.2.1. I am back on the SGT7 builds atm... love them both. I wanted to bring up 2 issues I have encountered that appear others may be having as well, and also wanted to offer to send my Kindle to a Dev if they wish to test on it themselves.

Issues:

1.) Typically whenever the screen is off for longer than the deep sleep/timeout period, the power light goes amber and I can not get it to turn back on without holding in the power to shutoff/reboot. This isn't sometimes, or in rare cases, it is always, and with a clean install with no additional apps. I have tried numerous times, wipe system, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, factory data reset just to make sure it is all wiped except for the external SD. Then install the rom and gapps.. boot up and test. Still getting the SOD...

2.) Also, I cannot and have not been able to get any computer to recognize my kindle since sometime around last summer. No ADB and no USB mounts. It seemed the SGT7 builds would stop USB mass storage from working and I had to use the Mount USB in recovery. Well now I cannot even use Mount USB in recovery. I bought another official Kindle USB cable to make sure the cable was not an issue (tried 4 cables of mine for other phones as well), but nothing. It doesn't initiate anything in device manager and never mounts period. So I have been using Wifi Explorer to transfer roms to the sdcard for flashing at the moment. I can't think of anything or setting that could have caused it to do such, even in experimental builds. I am tempted to flash on an old ICS build of AOKP just to see if it fixes some of that or not.

As I stated before, if a dev is interested in looking at it, I am willing to ship it to you and cover all costs associated with that. It is a 1st gen kindle btw... and as always.. thanks so much for all the work you guys do. Much abliged... DK
[Kindle Fire Android Development] kevindiehl:
I assume your kindle is still charging fine? I am currently replacing mine due to a broken USB port. Have you reinstalled the USB drivers on your PC?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] erad1:
If you do decide to flash backwards to fix the recognization issue, I would recommend going with Modaco's custom 6.1...then plug in to your pc and let the drivers re-install themselves. The time spent on that...albeit a very nice Rom, will give you even more appreciation for what Twa_priv and Hashcode and sbrady have given us here! (I had done this exact thing as a personal experiment).
[Kindle Fire Android Development] dethknite:
Thanks for the ideas, I have reinstalled the USB drivers as well as tried on 2 other computers to see if I could get it to recognize it. That is always a possibility that the USB port got fried. It does charge fine on the port though.

---------- Post added at 05:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:03 PM ----------

Thanks for the recommendation... I haven't tried it and haven't really heard much about it before. That sounds like a better idea than the old AOKP rom that was ditched prior to the last milestone.

If mentioned already, sorry for the bother. But does this ROM (1/15) support otg (read a flash drive via adaptor)? Does it support an added mic?
