I did a clean install, not using either of the things you mentioned and I did a wipe after I installed cm. Should I do another just in case?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] LinearEquation:
Well you can but not to sure if it will help if you did a wipe afterword already. Maybe try the other stock launcher? Just have not seen many complaints about this so it would appear something else is in play imho.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] DrCuddles:
I haven't changed my launcher haha. I'm also still using the stock keyboard.

All I've done is install a bunch of apps, arrange my home and lockscreens with widgets and folders.

Nothing crazy going on unless its something I've installed which I doubt because its all the same stuff I used in cm 10.1 (I only upgraded to this version a week ago).
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Shawnsch:
Did you do a full wipe when you updated to cm 11?

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

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.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] DroidIt!:
This is a known issue with the tab. It is an oldie and don't know if it's been discussed for quite awhile (that I know of) so I wouldn't blame you for not hearing of it. But when using the kindle while plugged, if you use anything with it less than the amps that the supplied charger puts out, phantom touches on the screen will happen. I believe it was a charger that puts out less than 2 amps is no good. Think it was something to do with the digitizer. Hash would probably know a lot more on it, but that's what I remember off the top of my head. So, nothing's wrong with your kindle, just need to switch chargers if you wanna use it while plugged in.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] LinearEquation:
There is no supplied charger with the Tate. It only came with a USB cord. The charger has to be bought. The fast charger you can buy from Amazon is 1.8 amps and supplies 9 Watts. The standard charger is only 1amp and supplies 5 Watts. The amps are supplied by the charger but only what is commanded did by the tablet. I don't think the Kindle even draws 2 amps. That would probably start to heat the battery more than you would want.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] diver_ua:
Found funny thing: sometimes, if you charging Kindle and, for eaxmple. phone, from same power outlet, you may get ghost touches even if your adapter is 2+ Amp...

i did re enable touch sounds months back and wasn't experiencing any issues

that issue finally appeared on my device on stock and overclock using 5/3 nightly
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] DrCuddles:
Yeah, it all checked out.

Ah right, I've found some charging scenarios did give me phantoms, especially when plugged in at the wall. Charging off my laptop seems fine but I don't think its charging it enough, if I'm using the kindle it just slows down the loss of charge. Ah well I guess I'll just have to deal with this one.

The random system ui crashes are a real pain in the ass though.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] DroidIt!:
Ah, OK now I remember. I bought the official Amazon charger when I bought the kfhd at Best Buy. I found that pretty much any charger I use other than the official Amazon one, I get "ghost" touches. So in general, try to find the highest quality charger you have and &I've it a try. If still no good and you really need to use it while plugged in I would order the official from Amazon. :)

from my N7ish
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Hashcode:
You should not be seeing random system UI crashes. Perhaps look at a clean install and only reinstall apps in groups watching for a day or 2 to see if the UI crashes come back.

I don't think they are common. (I dont see crashes on my device).
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] DrCuddles:
I'll give that a try, pain in the ass though. I just got my kindle the way I like it :(
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] phonexpert_alex:
I use a original Nokia charger. it supplies 1.2Amps at 5V and not getting any "ghost" touches. I previously used all sorts of chargers and they all took forever to charge the kindle and so much "ghost" touches that it was impossible to use it while plugged in.

The standard laptop/PC USB plug supplies only 0.5 Amps. That is barely charging the kindle and if you plan on using it while charging from your USB port, you mught see it is not keeping up with the charge as you are discharging it.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] stunts513:
I use a 2.4 amp charger i got at best buy a while back to charge it. Works really well, yes it does heat the device up a bit, and idk if charger at that amperage is good for the battery, but man it charges fast. Brand was called rocketfish mobile. Says its for kindle. No ghost touches with it. Just felt like posting this randomly when i saw people discussing battery chargers.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Mr. Xplosion Man:

maybe you misread the output. are you sure it said 20 "V"? maybe it said 20 "W"

if you use a 20 V charger you will surely destroy your kindle.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] stunts513:
Works fine on mine as well. Had no issues at all so far.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Hashcode:
I know M6 is out and most users are running that at the moment ...

However, the latest nightlies (5/6 and on) had some audio changes. I need some feedback on these changes and hopefully I'll fix any audio bugs before M7 rolls out in June:

- Support for deep buffer / low power audio was added which should solve stuttering audio when played with the screen off

- Recording paths were cleaned up some, to avoid the issue where the 1st time after a reboot that Google Now was used for voice search, audio would semi-crash and Google Search would need to be restarted

I'm especially looking for feedback on the many many audio use-cases:

- Play Music streaming

- YouTube audio

- Play Movies streaming

- Apollo local music play

- System notification sounds

- Bluetooth audio streaming out (to say a BT speaker)

- Bluetooth record via ear piece

All of this should probably be tested with both screen on and off.

Thanks!

For anyone out there that was wondering the same thing as I was regarding volume issues, south956's audio fix works wonders on the CM11 image. Here's his message to me. I'm sharing it so others can benefit:

Hashcode, you may want to consider integrating this into your rom. The max volume is perfectly loud enough to hear over the treadmill now.

Thanks to Hashcode for the port of CM and to south956 for the audio fix.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] LinearEquation:
Amazons new update seems to have made the app only FC no matter the ROM being used. It's not the first time I have seen this happen. So, I uploaded the last Amazon APK version that you folks can use until the current Amazon APK gets working.

HEADS UP: Tonights nightly may not be the for faint of heart.

Be aware.. lots of kernel pushes which won't affect performance at all.. but will get us closer to being in line with omapzoom's 3.0-dev kernel branch. Which will help me tackle some USB and HDMI changes that we want/need on the HD's.

[MENTION=4746892]Maromi[/MENTION] I changed the settings into the ones you provided and i was amused as in how such a little fix made the tablet so much better til i started using my Huluplus service and noticed thaat the resolution conflicted with the "base" in the video watching on the application....I noticed it was that because when i would cast onto my chromecast it would work flawlessly and on my S2 as well but as soon as i tried on tablet it said "Unknown error" I went to TE and changed the setting to originals and it worked....I actually was thinking of keeping your settings as daily driver.

More build updates in tonights nightly (5/13):

- Updated our DOMX (hardware codec layer interface) sources to the latest on omapzoom with some bugfixes to handle Amazon specific issues

- Updated our camera sources to latest omapzoom sources and debug/bugfixed to handle Amazon specific issues

The end result *should* be better quality camera

(needs this merged for higher quality pictures: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/63911/)

- Still image and camcorder defaults are now set to 1280x768 (up from 640x480)

- Using HW encoder H264 formatted mp4's

NOTE: Camera does still have the "mirror image" issue where saved files are reversed. Researching the fix for this.

Also pushed more "synchronization" changes to the kernel. Shouldn't see any improvements yet but also shouldn't see any breakage.

More updates to the camera HAL in tonight's nightly:

- Fixed reversed display in saved images

- Fixed crash in Panorama mode

Also Camera2 patch was merged. So you will want to clear the settings in the Camera app:

Settings -> Apps -> "All" (swipe twice to the right in the listed area) -> find "Camera" and select. Press "Clear data"

This enables the 1280x720 photo mode (previously bugged to 1024x768)

Hopefully this should wrap up my camera HAL changes and I'll start working on other things.

Today I worked a bit on cleaning up HDMI negotiation.

After installing tonights nightly, I would love to hear from users who had previously had issues with video output via HDMI.

Especially helpful for debugging would be the output of dmesg right around the time when you connect the Kindle to the TV.

Anyone else having some weird glitches in games. Games like Run Bot used to run smooth. After flashing today's nightly (5/13) its all glitchy and laggy. Anyone else? Might just be me. Will be doing a clean, fresh install tomorrow.

Edit: Looks like it was just me. Pure Graphics by Jeeko somehow makes it all slow and glitchy. I would avoid that tweak for now :P

Edit: Maybe not. Looks like its the 16bit transparancy causing it. Maybe? Playing around with the performance settings. On Maromi's kernel BTW.

Last Edit: After playing with it for awhile, it looks like [MENTION=4746892]Maromi[/MENTION] kernel is just not playing well with the new ROM update. Maybe the kernel may need an update with the changes Hash has made. Concluded and done for the day (:

Let's talk about OTG functionality.

I spent 4 hours last night testing and debugging to see what was going on in the USB driver and OTG device recognition.

I can do this now, because the kernel is so much closer to omapzoom's standard OMAP4 kernel than it was a few weeks ago (see the 150+ commits pushed into the bowser kernel on github).

So after 4 hours, I'm coming to realize that the power for OTG may actually be used elsewhere on the board (perhaps to power the 4G modem in those devices). And this is why we're not seeing ID-GND notification (or really any indication at all) when plugging in an OTG device.

What does this mean?

Getting OTG to work on the KFireHD's won't be as easy as on some other devices.

I'm going to experiment next with using a powered HUB + a software "switch" to enable OTG functionality and see if I can get something to enumerate. But, at this point it will all be a bit hacky.

I'll try and keep you guys updated as I figure this out more.
