Thanks for this TWA, your effort is much appreciated, wish I had the skills to mess with ROM's like this. After a clean install, everything seemed fine, except for a bit of lag occasionally and I was unable to place Icons where I wanted them - no big deal, then it all started going wrong after about an hour, most of my apps started crashing, Earth, MXPlayer, Beyond pod, Flip board, FBReader. I also lost all sound. I tried re-installing the apps - to no avail' I could not get sound back. I then tried re-installing the ROM after a complete wipe, worryingly this did not solve the problem and I found that the ROM was unusable on my tablet. I had to go back to the previous version which has resolved the issue, I suspect something has broken this ROM pretty badly. I see that no-one else is reporting any problems since you released, so I'm wondering if I've done something wrong, but I don't think I have. I've reinstalled it twice with a complete wipe, ie. Cache/Dalvic/Factory/System.

Any ideas ?
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Thepooch:
Same results but I had no sound right of the bat. Booted into TWRP did a factory reset then I had sound worked good until updating Google apps then sound fell apart as well as apps began to FC or just freeze all together I dont know if this was a gapp issue but google search did update and didn`t work prior within minutes it all went gunny.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] twa_priv:
It's certainly possible linaro (or some other changes of mine) are causing issues - but usually I get them as well :) but in this case I don't.

Anyway, I'm running a vanilla sgt7 build right now, using just hashcode's and sgt7's repos. No changes from my side. I'll post it in a bit.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Hashcode:
There could be issues with the new audio drivers that I haven't weeded out. But for me they work well.

Logcats and kmsg dumps always help.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] twa_priv:
Vanilla sgt7 build is up.

[MENTION=4243514]Hashcode[/MENTION].

I noticed the following:

Start watching an HD mp4 video in MX Player

While the video is playing click on the recents button

Click on recents again to return to MX

When you resume the video the picture freezes quite frequently (the sound gets going)

Attaching a logcat & kmsg.

Thanks
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Thepooch:
I apologize how are you grabbing your logcats I haven`t found a logcat that works well with jelly bean I just get the no trace file found error.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] twa_priv:
I do it in a command prompt / terminal window (Windows/Linux)

Connect the device to your computer.

# Terminal 1

adb root

adb logcat -c # optional, to clear the log

adb logcat > logcat.txt

# Terminal 2

adb shell cat /proc/kmsg > kmsg.txt

Then reproduce the issue, when done hit Ctrl+C in both terminals and grab the logs.

Also, you will need the latest adb / Android SDK, otherwise adb will not work and you'll see a "Device offline" message.

You also need to change the Developer options accordingly.

Is OTG cable functional in this build?

First thanks greatly for this rom/kernal.

Just upgraded to the latest build and it's working perfectly.

Makes the HD worth having.

Does anyone know if the USB OTG function works on the HD with CMOD?

With the limited storage it would be great to attach a jumpdrive and/or use a mouse.

Thanks again for the great ROM.:cyclops:
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Thepooch:
Okay thank you will run a few later and see that you get them. ADB is all good here as always. I did notice this issue with all audio related things music, netflix, and device sounds included if you force stop Apollo it spends considerable amount of time trying to restart. All your work is appreciated.

Edit: Didn`t allow google to restore my account or keep my tablet backed up no audio issues thus far. The problem is Google related. Everything works Apollo, Youtube, netflix,Hulu and microphone with none of the previous issues. This was the original build not the Vanilla build.

Dangit

Was a bit foolish and knew better within seconds, but hit the "wipe internal storage" in TWRP, leaving me without the rom and gapps I had previously placed in the virtual sd card, and no way to get them back there easily again (I think)! Is there a path to push through adb specific to the KFHD 8.9 while in fast boot?? If there is, might want to sticky it with the commands, I think that a lot of people are going to learn "virtual sd" the hard way.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Hashcode:
You should still be able to "adb push _____ /sdcard/" and then be able to see the files in the Install screen.

old files

Ok , just installed 5/18 build from the stock, so far so good..sound didnt come up at 1st need open sound interface, a slightly lag but defiantly usable. Thank you!

When i flash my internal space has 3gb left (16gb model) i did backup in TWRP at time, after done with cm10.1 as Hashcode mentioned

" CM10.1 will create a sub directory "/data/media/0" and call that "sdcard". And in TWRP it will also use "data/media/0" as "sdcard"."

but where i can't see and move my old files(movies music books..) to new location seems i cant find stock files location anymore --

can I do wipe internal memory in TWRP do it from fresh?

any help will be great appreciated.

Thanks
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] LivingChampion:
I remember having the same problem when I installed the ROM (Hashcode's in this case) for a friend. Yup, just wipe the internal storage via TWRP and restart the Kindle. It should be normal again where the root of the device is shown easily on TWRP.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] praed0r:
Just a quick update -

After all the problems I was having with lag, sound missing, video skipping, random crashes etc. I decided to have one more go with the newest version of this ROM (with Linaro). Once again after a clean install I was having the above problems. I just happened to notice that the issues started after trying to adjust the volume on a podcast file I was listening to - had to re-boot to get the audio back, so I ran the podcast again , only this time I paused playback before adjusting the volume - the audio came back when I pressed play - I tried this a few times and it worked faultlessly. I then adjusted the volume without pausing first and the tablet hung then crashed into a reboot - - back to square one I thought. Then, after re-booting I went into settings and disabled all sound notifications, ie screen touch beep, keyboard beep etc. I've not had a problem since - even MXPlayer will play movies without skipping and I can adjust the volume without pausing - Yipee

Don't know if this will help narrow down the problem - it would appear to have something to do with system notifications that use sound.

My Tab is so smooth and responsive now - WOW !!!! (had to double check it was a Kindle - lol)

Thanks so much to the Devs for this ROM.

[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Dreamkickasst:
No push (cmd noob)

I think all is right, but my cmd line expertise has got to be off or something: adb devices shows "0123456789ABCDEF recovery" assuming this is TWRP.

I have the rom and gapps on the desktop and "cd" to the desktop in an admin cmd prompt. Now this is the part not working: "adb push /cm-10.1-20130514-UNOFFICIAL-jem/sdcard/" only results in the available commands being listed.

Thanks for the help! You make a lot of KFHD's happy!

Error executing updater binary in zip ...

Hi,

This ROM looks promising so I tried installing it.

I had Hashcode's CM 10.2 installed, with TWRP 2.6.0.0

Using the same TWRP 2.6.0.0 I first wiped system, cache, data, Dalvik and then selected the " cm-...sgt7.zip". After a few seconds I get the error " Error executing updater binary in zip 'sdcard/cm-11...zip' Error flashing zip... ".

Does anybody know a quick solution for this?

I read some other posts and noticed people downgrading TWRP to versions below 2.3 . However, I would like to prevent having to go through that Kindle fire driver installation mess again.

Has anybody tried installing this ROM with TWRP 2.6.0.0 and succeeded? Or which other TWRP version did you use?

Cheers

twa_priv, ok, that's clear.

However, I'm not succeeding with flashing a new TWRP...

I try Hashcode's instructions (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2128175), reading carefully as my device is already on 10.2.

Once again, like back in July, I'm not getting into FASTBOOT. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2362360 :mad:

Back then somehow I got fastbook working, apparently with reinstalling drivers. I did just that again and again, even using the older Drivers of KFFirstAide.

In my Windows 8.1 Device Manager I do see the Android Composite ADB Interface below Kindle Fire. However, using the "fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product" remains in the waiting state for minutes (until I terminate it). And the kindle just boots CM 10.2. I also see below Other Devices the entry JEM-PVT-Prod-04 and below Portable Devices the Amazon Kindle Fire HD.

Are there other ways to flash TWRP 2.6.3.1?

Might it be possible that TWRP can flash a new version of itself from within TWRP UI?

Running this Rom and have enabled ART and all working well so far - think this is the smoothest Kitkat rom for the 8.9 Kindle fire HD I have found. VPNCilla is not working, but this seems to be a general problem with all KitKat roms. I thought that 4.4.1 may have fixed it, but still errors with a "tun0" error. May have another play tonight to see if I can get it working.
