News and Weather App Strangeness

Just upgraded from CM10.1/SGT7 to this. No problems so far except 2 minor ones:

1. Back, Home, etc. buttons sometimes need second tap - this may be due to the screen not recognizing the full area of the tap?

2. News and Weather app - Weather worked fine in 10.1, now I get "acquiring location" which then fails. I need to manually set my zipcode. Not a biggie, just annoying. News is working fine.

Trebuchet has closed on me a couple of times. Has done it a bit more than 10.1, but again, not a huge problem. Doing nothing but closing apps, or moving some to the main screens.

EDIT: I followed the upgrade directions and wiped only Dalvik and cache. Should I do a complete wipe even though I was running CM10.1/SGT7?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] remmie80:
I get a FC when I try to open the settings: Interface -> Status Bar

And I can't find a way to turn of HALO. Is there a way?

Thanks,

[Kindle Fire Android Development] soupmagnet:
Did you do a clean flash? It works just fine for me.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] remmie80:
Yeah I wiped everything before flashing, maybe I need to update my recovery and try again? Im using TWRP v2.2.0

It shouldn't matter. Can you get a logcat of the FC?

Yeah is there a way yet to turn it off? It keeps crashing my system hi when I reboot. The only way I found that gets around it is spamming my lock icon before the kindle fully boots up.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] 404-Not Found:
I have tried multiple times to get the most RAM but at the most I cant get past 130-140. Most games like MC 4 Or NFS MW I use require about 160 or 150 RAM to run or else I they FC. I tried multiple methods like Revolting and Greenify but doblnt work

How can I get the Max out of this ROM? Currently I want to keep the CM features but if I want the most of RAM I need a AOSP ROM which I don't want.

Wi-Fi problem

There seems to be some problem with the Wi-Fi scan.

The system does not broadcast scan results available intent unless there is a WPS setup in process.

All the 3rd party app are affected, including the famouse Wifi Analyzer and my app (Wifi Connection Manager).
[Kindle Fire Android Development] uan:
Yup. Happened to me too after changing to tablet ui. Now there is no way to change to phone ui.

Another thing, how to make the volume slider in tablet ui status bar to always change the media volume? Currently, without media sound being played, changing the volume slider will change notification volume. I think we dont always want to change notification volume for our kindle.

Hi,

can you add fullscreen mode to the rom.

The fullscreen mode just hides the lower bar.

Check the gederom thread to see what it is.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] powerpoint45:
It allready has it. On this Rom it is called "expand desktop"...yet it is not as smooth as on cm10.1 because now it has to reload the current intent
[Kindle Fire Android Development] btonetbone:
Our tablets are hindered due to a lack of ram, but there is a bit we can do to stretch it. I love these ROMs, but they leave in a ton of superfluous programs which eat up our limited memory and/or are specific for phones/data ready tablets. Here's a quick guide to a bunch of programs that can be deleted or frozen to free up resources. You still won't have a ton, but it helps.

So I went back and downloaded the previous release of the CM gapps package (20140105), did a full wipe and installed, and everything runs fine so far. Not sure if there's something weird with my device in particular, or a compatibility issue with this ROM and gapps package 20140606.

EDIT: I guess if I paid closer attention to the title of this thread, I could've saved myself some headaches. D'oh!

[Kindle Fire Android Development] DonDeLome:
If I only flash the OtterX Bootloader (v2.05), will the latest non-OtterX build (20140615) load and run without problems?

Thanks - The Don
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Ixthusdan:
I think you need both otterx boot loader and twrp 2.7.1. The boot loader creates the new layout and twrp can choose between either format, f2fs or ext4.

Sorry, misread the question. You can use the new boot loader without switching to the otterx partitions. In that case, you can install non-otterx roms just fine.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] kvestas:
IMHO Hash's bootloader v.2.05 should be compatible with both partitioning modes: Amazon and OtterX. But please be careful to choose compatible TWRP and ROM versions.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Ixthusdan:
I tried a dirty flash this time and the tablet became sluggish. So, I wiped and installed a fresh setup and everything is responsive. Does the data need to be installed with a fresh ROM for it to run correctly? I would think that would only be the case for a kernel change. At any rate, it runs great with a fresh setup.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] JimCo06:
I am having a similar problem. Although I am sure it isn't a ROM or Gaap problem (they are working perfectly for too many people) I am hoping someone can give me some suggestions.

Switched to OtterX per Hashcodes instructions - No errors everything went perfectly. (thanks Hashcode)

Installed OtterX version of this ROM (thanks twa_priv) - again No errors or problems. ROM boots perfectly and everything works.

Installed GAPPS (tried both 20140606 and 20140105) everything works perfectly EXCEPT the Play Store. Immediately after installing I can open the Play Store I can brouse the Store I can look at my apps everything seems to be working. However as soon as I try to download an app (one of mine, or a new one) the Play Store immediately FC's. I get the error message "Unfortunately, the Google Play Store has stopped". After that I can't open the Play Store any more. I have to do a clean install to get the Play Store to open again.

I have tried every combination of re-downloading, re-pushing, re-flashing I can think of (always check MD5). I have even tried Hashcode's ROM. Always the same result.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] koop1955:
I am currently running this ROM (OtterX F2FS version) and using Banks GAPPs, minimal version. Play is working fine. Here is the link:

http://goo.im/devs/BaNkS/GApps/4.4.3

You can also try clearing your Play cache and data. That often solves Play issues.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] JimCo06:
Thanks for the suggestions. I tried the Banks GAPPS but they produced exactly the same results. I have also tried clearing the cache and data as well as Fource Closing the app and even Disableing and re-Enableing. None of those had any impact but I do appreciate the help.

I know I am asking this in the wrong place because I am pretty sure the problem is with Google. I posted here because I am using this ROM and F2Fs and was hoping that someone here had had this problem with Google before.

Thanks again.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] SwoRNLeaDejZ:
Are you sure you installed the F2FS version of TWRP and formatted data as F2FS first? It seems like the problem is only occurring when the play store is trying to write to /data, that is why I ask.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Ixthusdan:
Follow up on my previous report on sluggishness:

I use Apex launcher, and I neglected to notice an update in the store. After updating, my kindle performs as smoothly and as quickly as my ipad2. So the source of the performance problem was my launcher, and not my ROM nor my setup. I am using otterx with f2fs. I think the battery usage issue (it runs more juice when in use) is because the setup simply uses more power. I like it a lot.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] JimCo06:
Actually I think that is a good, fair question because that is exactly what it looks like to me also. But, yes I am sure. I followed Hashcode's instructions carefully. I installed the new Bootloader V. 2.05, I installed TWRP for OtterX directly from the links on Hashcode's TWRP thread and made the switch to the OtterX partition system per his instructions. TWRP even identifies the file system as f2fs. Just to be sure I think I will go through the process one more time just ot be sure.

Thanks.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] hanthesolo:
I'm in the same boat. The problem compared to the ext4 version is /cache not mounting/mounting properly on boot resulting the failure of emulated storage (/sdcard) from being mounted/symlinked as well. Because I can mount /cache just find in terminal, i'd think it's a problem with the vold.fstab equivalent in 4.4 (I haven't developed since ICS so idk how it works fully) mountpoint, but since it's an isolated issue it's likely something else. Are you by any chance flashing to this from dual-boot?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] JimCo06:
Hi, thanks for the reply. No I am not using dual boot. IIRC I did have this Kindle set up as dual boot for a while, a long time ago, but I reverted back to single boot as the ROMs improved. So maybe it does having something to do with dual boot.

I did go though the conversion process all over again re-downloaded all programs, checked MD%s, re-flashed Bootloader and TWRP, confirmed change to F2Fs and reflashed ROM and GAPPS. That did change the results slightly. Now when I try to download an app I just get a spinning wheel that never stops (the Play Store doesn't FC with an error). I even opened a new Play Store account to see if there was something wrong with my old account but that didn't change anything.

Thanks for the suggestions.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] koop1955:
See this: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/66314

The update has been integrated into the latest SlimKat build (5.10) which can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2747564

Try that along with the Slimroms GAPPs and see if that works. (I would wipe before install., if it were me.)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] JimCo06:
Thanks for taking the time to offer suggestions. I did try your Slimkat ROM and GAPPS after a complete wipe. Unfortunately, no joy. I could start the Play Store, but once again, as soon I I tried to downlaod an app the Play Store FC'ed with an error message that it had stopped.

At this point I think that hanthesolo might be correct about it being related the fact that is was once set up to dual boot. I think I am going to do some research about that and consider using fastboot to reinstall a bootloader and non-otterx TWRP.

Thanks again to everyone that offered suggestions.

If you will note in the response you quoted, wifi does work; the poster had a bad download. Did you try to verify the MD5 sum after downloading? The only time I have had wifi issues is when dirty flashing. A different rom (slimkat) does hesitate during setup, but 2 or 3 attempts brings the kindle online.

Does the bootloader say Amazon or otterx? Is this the first install after reformat?

I had to go back to Amazon partitions, format, and then switch to otterx, format again, in order to move past this the first time I changed. Been good ever since.

I was using nightlies, but this ROM is better on my kindle.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] MrBrady:
[MENTION=3638028]twa_priv[/MENTION], I noticed that the 7/19 build does not have f2fs in the file name, while other builds do. Does that mean the 7/19 build is not made with f2fs compatibility?

Has anyone seen deep-sleep problems lately? I'm on the latest build from this thread (7/19) and am losing 1% battery per hour of standby, where I used to be able to get 20-30 *days* of standby.

I tried a totally clean install, not even including gapps, and not joining wifi, and making sure wifi wasn't on during sleep, and it's still happening before I've installed a single app.

I'm using the latest otterx build and it's my first time using that and trying ART, but I don't know why they'd affect this. I'm currently resetting to dalvik just to eliminate a variable.

My previous build was from back in March so there's a big window when things could have changed.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jtodaro:
Slightly off topic, but figured I'd ask the people who currently have the same hardware I have now.

I have a 1st Gen Kindle Fire that's having the wonderful charging issue. It's become almost impossible to charge and I see most fixes costing me money (which is like throwing money into a worthless hole past a certain point). If I am to buy something new, what would you guys suggest? My requirements are Wifi, Front & Rear facing camera, Android (of course), and BT (so that I can use my OBDII Dongle to run Torque & Dash Commander in my car for diagnostics). A working mic (which Kindle with this rom did not support) would definitely be a plus. I will want to root/mod it, so a viable root/mod would be pretty much required.

I've looked at the Galaxy Tab Pro, and that seems inviting, but not sure I want to spend $350+ for the limited things I do with the Kindle.

Suggestions?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] davall:
The same for me and no solution on my side. The increased lost of battery came up for me with otterx. I saw that hashcode is aware of the problem but haven't seen a solution on the forums!?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] koop1955:
It is not a fix for the issue, but I use a combination of WakeLock Detect, Greenify and LeanDroid to increase the amount of time between charges. WLD and Greenify are designed to work together. LeanDroid is a convenience, but I use it on my phone.

I also use Lovejoy777 kernel.

Again, not perfect, but makes the Kindle usable for me.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] nightlimits:
How's the ROM coming along? Been around other forums for a couple years but I'm new to the kindle and am curious if the otter ROM is just as smooth as the otterx version. Trying to make it worth it if I do upgrade.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Ixthusdan:
The otterx version of this ROM is listed in the op, scroll down.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] nightlimits:
I know it is. Just curious of the smoothness and available free ram after flashing. I've since switched to otterx and just tinkering around looking for something stable enough to run as a daily and not have it lag. Currently on cm11 8/04 snapshot m9 as it was very fluid and snappy at first but over time has slowed down slightly..
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Ixthusdan:
I have found this ROM too be one of the best on my device. Try it out.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pfederighi:
Twa_priv,

Did you ever find which apk or library specifically caused the PlayStore graphics issues from the 6/5 release? I'm curious because I found the 6/5 release to be smoother and more responsive than the later releases. I'm wondering if that specific part of the system could be compiled without the optimizations and the rest could be optimized.

Thanks for your great work.

Basic instructions for OtterX:

1. Download flashable Bootloader to /sdcard. http://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=6514

2. Download flashable Recovery (TWRP) to /sdcard. https://goo.im/devs/Hashcode/otterx/recovery/flash-zip/zip-otterx-twrp-2.7.1.0-recovery.zip

3. Connect your Kindle Fire to your computer with a USB cable.

4. Backup anything you want to save.

5. Reboot to Recovery

6. Use Recovery to flash new Bootloader.

7. Use Recovery to flash new Recovery.

8. Reboot.

9. Use the Bootloader menu to change partitions to OtterX. [Menu]->Advanced->Partition Mode: AMAZON

10. Reboot (not sure if this step is required, but it will not hurt).

11. Use the Bootloader menu to enter Recovery.

12. In Recovery, Wipe->Advanced Wipe->select Data->Repair of Change File System->Change File System->F2FS

13. Reboot (not sure if this step is required, but it will not hurt).

14. Use the Bootloader menu to enter Recovery.

15. In Recovery, Wipe->Format Data->type "yes"

16. In Recovery, Wipe->Advanced Wipe->select Dalvik Cache, Cache, and System->Swipe to Wipe

17. In recovery, from the terminal app on your computer, push your ROM and gapps of choice. `adb push rom.zip /sdcard` and `adb push gapps.zip /sdcard`.

18. In Recovery, install the ROM and gapps.

19. Reboot and enjoy.

I did not include the steps for backing up the original partitions. If you want to be extra safe, it is recommended that you back them up. See post #2 in Hascode's OtterX thread and follow the `adb` commands.

I apologize if I missed a step. I hope this is easy enough to understand or to translate with an online translator.
