Hello Hash, I noticed that small detail but my Kindle is running so smooth an flawless that I doesn't need to changed anything. Nice man, such a good work, such a fine looking smooth working tablet I have rarely met under my fingers. (Same on the KFHD89 with your other ROM) I can only issu the usb for file transfer but FTP works fine.I appreciate your solid working contributions so much!

On that way live came up to be defiantly good !!

Woaahhoo, now im a little confused:

Automated CM Builds: http://get.cm/?device=otter2 are comming from You? Every night a new buid :)
[Kindle Fire 2 Android Development] Xperia Player:
I know there's not a "correct" answer for this question but, should I upgrade? Its been a loooong while since I have. I like having all features which this one currently doesn't have yet, but even so what would you recommend me, if anything at all. Here's my info/config. Sorry if this is in the wrong section I didn't see a q&a for the KF2 for some reason.

Hi ..nice work thanx !!! I have just installed the latest nightly buildd and everything is working fine so far for me . SD card access with android file transfer on my imac and on win 8 is working fine too :) the only 2 things i have noticed are: there is a problem to find the current location via wifi and trebuchet seems to be a bit buggy...but the system is running fine and fast

Whoop whoop! Way to go FuZZ! First time selecting reboot from advanced menu boots into recovery......thats where the good news ends..........rebooting system from TWRP just reloads TWRP. Shutting down and turn on only boots TWRP. Selecting Normal Boot from kindle blue screen boots TWRP only :D

Rolled back to previous version via ........... you guessed it....TWRP.

Hmm... I just flashed latest Nightly build, cm-11-20140425-NIGHTLY-otter2.zip, but I can't reproduce that. It seems to be working just fine to me.

I haven't reverted to TWRP 2.6.3.1 then testing but please make sure you flashed TWRP 2.7.0.0 I posted above just in case.

Thanks chief...that did the trick. I misunderstood your earlier post where you said "forgot about twrp". I had already updated to 2.6.3.1 so I totally missed it!

hey, cool a TWRP update! so basically, the changelog features are the same as with the official, right?

and it's compatible with other ROMs too?

curious to try the direct recovery boot you merged for us. we take it so granted that it's nice to have it for our KF2 finally!

kudos much!
[Kindle Fire 2 Android Development] jnow2:
Just out of curiosity, do you know why twrp is landscape on kf2 when it's portrait on all other devices I've seen? I found some cool twrp themes but can't use any of them because of landscape.

I cant remember for the life of me how to flash twrp img file. Im guessing i need to find my long lost fastboot cable again :D

New audio changes coming in the next nightly (if i made the cut off).

- Added low power support for when the screen is off / cover closed. (Was noticeable as stuttering)

- Debugged some audio record issues (will probably need to revisit MIC recording)

There is probably still an issue where if you are doing 2-3 use cases for audio, it will cut out. I'll see about fixing that up later.

Let me know if you guys see any improvements.
[Kindle Fire 2 Android Development] FuZZ__:
Unfortunately those changes ended up made the issues outstanding, as the volume lower than before...

Stuck in TWRP

I have TWRP 2.6.3.1 installed but can get out of it. It is not flashing any of the KK rom (Cm 11). When I flash the rom it appears to be going through and then finishes rather quickly. I reboot and it throws me back into TWRP. I really need some help on this one.

Can you update to TWRP 2.7.0.0 and try again? (flash the following file in your existing TWRP and then reboot -> recovery)

[Kindle Fire 2 Android Development] Jervisd:
I flashed the file but it's not getting into twrp, it just keeps blinking on the teamwin splash screen. I flashed the file using twrp 2.6.3.1 first and then using fastboot and got the same result.

video streams

I loaded the M8 , then followed it up with the 20140714 nightly.

Happy that location issues seem to be resolved.

I am seeing more than one app (news stations) that fail to stream video .

seems like the video "just" starts, then chokes

CNN, youtube, and some other news apps work fine, the apps in question havent been a problem on earlier releases.

Does anyone have any hints on what to try?

I tried individually

in developer options:

Force GPU rendering

Disable hardware overlays

in Performance options:

Enable 16 bit transparency

As you some of you may have noticed: I have a new job working with Linaro Mobile Group beginning 9/1/2014.

This is a HUGE change in my professional career, and I want to be 100% focused on my current duties.

This means, that I will be ending my support for the Kindle Fire devices as official CM maintainer.

Over the next few weeks, I'll be working with CM to get a replacement dev to step in and continue updates / tweaks to the device.

For more information:

https://plus.google.com/111109372727398356624/posts/AtoJ3xLj35b

Lastly, ending my support for the Kindles was a VERY difficult choice. My TODO list is long and extensive with plans for updates well into next year ... To not get around to really polishing many of these builds makes me a bit sad.

BUT, this is where YOU (the community) can step in and make a difference. Continue to push these devices onward. I wish you all well.

With CyanogenMod dead, and there is unlikely to be any support from Lineageos, I'll just post some download links here to keep you guys going!

Hi, just some positive feedback.

Installs and boots fine, I used an older gapps to start, one that was closer to the release of the original CM11's.... I haven't had luck with brand new opengapps on cm11 roms.

updates to the latest play store just fine.

The rom runs fine, I was hoping for screen casting drivers to have somehow magically appeared, but wont happen I guess....

I had no problems with WiFi

The only changes I didn't merge were ION memory related and TI's kernel isn't compatible with them.

The idea behind these merges was to make sure our kernel was as compatible with 4.3 as possible.

Not in the op.. But I don't recommend that you try to flash it. You can download from the CyanogenMod site but if you didn't know that I REALLY RECOMMEND that you don't try anything.

I believe we need an updated recovery to flash. Can't even get the 2.6.3.0 recovery on my device unfortunately since all links are down. But what we need is the 2.6.3.1 recovery. Without that I don't think we'll get this installed.
