No! It is NOT for new TWRP recovery! You can't read or follow directions of OP..and don't even bother to try!

We will be seeing you in the,HELP!! I bricked my device thread soon if we haven't already.

Not sure y the link is down ...but if it was mine I would have taken it down just because of this kind of crap .

You simply got lucky because you had a compatible kernel in place already .0 and dirty flashed this right after TWRP install ..apparently you had had enough left over that it booted.. Jezz ppl read the OP at least!

Maybe while you are there check the dates of these thread and post and or OP edited dates .

Smh.....repetitively facepalming in the HDX forum:eek:
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] shadowcliffs:
13.3.2.4.v1 worked very well with twrp 2.8.1.0 in that link on my device which was rolled back to 13.3.2.4 before the flash. I was just reporting back my result. I didn't know my hdx is so special. Yes, my hdx is bricked but not due to doing this. But I don't like the way that amazon locks the bootloader at all which makes hdx very easy to be bricked and very difficult to unbrick. I'm out of here, your guys have fun.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] jimyv:
No , I'm sure it wasn't "this" that bricked your device ...

Bricked devices here, are caused by operator error ..I.e my above examples,,

your luck simply ran out.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] MinerBoy004:
No .3.2.1? :(
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] DB126:
Read the OP. You can move to the required version if you really want this ROM. Or do you expect the OP to custom build something just for you?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] MinerBoy004:
Last time I downgraded I bricked, that's why I was asking.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] DB126:
If you are on 3.2.1 the required version (3.2.4) is an upgrade ...
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] MinerBoy004:
But I can't install twrp on that version.

---------- Post added at 06:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:23 PM ----------

TWRP isn't for 3.2.4 though
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] DB126:
Right - so you'll have to pursue a different ROM or dump TWRP. My experience with ggow's Nexus ROM has been outstanding. Rock solid; everything works as it should. Suggest going with that while the CM11/CM12 varients evolve. Some may belly ache about its JB roots but there are very few apps that truly need KitKat+. Load up Gravitybox (or similar tools) and most of the differences disappear.

BTW, no disrespect to cpasjuste (great work) and other devs for their ROMs and numerous contributions to the HDX community. Gotta love the dedication. All depends on your needs/interests. The import point is you have a choice. Be happy you have have choices.

I just tried the latest version 15.0001.872.0C_645000110 and it still closes within a few seconds. I got the kindle app from the play store and that runs fine. Has anyone found a way to run amazon app store on this rom?

Edit: Kindle app from play store doesn't work after all :(
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] hecbigcat:
Can i flash this rom by twrp recovery , my device unlocked bootloader 13.3.2.3.

I worry my bootloader upgrade to 13.3.2.4
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] DB126:
I would not recommend it. What are you trying to accomplish? You have many options with an unlocked bootloader.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] hecbigcat:
Only i need is dolby audio , it make awsome music , im running Nexus 2.0.5 but battery life not good :(
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] DB126:
On Nexus 2.0.5 you can enable Dolby audio by flashing this add-on.

Battery life with Nexus 2.0.5 is excellent - on par with some of the best roms I have experienced on an handful of Android devices. Your battery life is likely being influenced by one or more of the following:

- screen brightness set too high (HDX devices have a powerful backlight)

- active background processes - use gsam and greenify (or the tools of your choice) to help identify and tame

- excessive wakelocks; amplify can help but has some side effects if used aggressively/incorrectly

- an aging battery
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] Cpasjuste:
Yep i noticed this bug too since the rom was made but i have no clue how to fix this. Like said before using the lock rotation item in the notification bar is a good work around.

Also noticed some problems connecting to new access point, and like said in the first post some non working settings menu.

I'll try to fix all that in a new rom version soon (could take a week or two) !
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] CelticWebSolutions:
To fix the orientation bug in the Launcher you can Replace Launcher2.apk in /system/app/ with http://goo.gl/SeiZWm

To do this do the following from a shell window:

adb push Launcher2.apk /sdcard/

adb shell

su (give permission on device screen)

/system/bin/mount -o remount,rw /system

cp /system/app/Launcher2.apk /system/app/Launcher2.bak

cp /sdcard/Launcher2.apk /system/app/

reboot

This should cure the flip flop issue in the launcher for you, it does for me :) You'll need to reset your Wallpaper most likely as well as your icon layout but you'll be able to use Landscape without it freaking out in the launcher.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] EniGmA1987:
I noticed that too, but didnt think it was this "ROM"'s problem because when I went back to my stock image it had the exact same issue. I thought it was either something I did when mucking about in the build.prop and system APK's or from an issue in SafeStap that messed up wifi a bit.

What happens to me now is that the wifi wont connect initially, then it will take about 30 seconds or a little more and suddenly say connected. But it wont actually be connected. Then I leave it for 5-10 minutes and it will all of a sudden be properly connected and working fine. I dont care that much because the wifi is far more reliable now then when the device was brand new. At least now it doesnt constantly crash my entire network the moment the tablet connects to wifi (19 out of 20 times) like the fully sdtock device did. Note that the network crashing is not a problem with the tablet, but a terrible bug in Android 4.2 itself. My old tablet did this when it updated to 4.2 (Samsung Galaxy tab 2) and even my Nexus 10 did this occasionally. Wifi is just broken beyond beliefe in Android 4.2 and simply does not work with certain router chipsets from Broadcom.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] _Alex_:
Read hashcode's response to cpasjuste in the safestrap thread..... I haven't checked if this ROM is based on hashcode's vanilla, and but if it is, that explains why...

Almost forgot that there is a similar thread about 7" wifi in Q/A on stock, and so your wifi issue may be hardware, software not rom related...
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] dcoig1:
There definitely seems to be wifi issues. Apps working with wifi disabled and crashing on enable.

Interesting. What exactly was the change in this new patched "Launcher2"? I wasn't even using their Launcher, but my paid Nova Launcher Prime.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] meks007:
This is working so well its thrilling - real good work. Thank you.

EDIT:

Everything appears to be working, except for Facebook. When trying to install via Play Store it downloads then fails with Shared Library not found. Out of all apps Facebook is the only one having this error.

EDIT:

Sideloading Facebook doesn't work either.

EDIT:

For waht its worth, Logcat while installing Facebook from Market logs:

Library com.amazon.device.messaging not found for com.facebook.katana

EDIT:

I copied /system/app/com.amazon.device.messaging*.apk from Stock to the Rom Slot and Facebook is working fine now.

Might be some dependency in your cleaned rom still there. Maybe my workaround is dirty, but theres no ill effects as far as I can tell.

[ROM] thor-gapps-rom

It has a patch in the source code which tells it that the Kindles use a reverse rotation system. The patch was created by a user called Wickets^. All I have done it compile the launcher using that patch :)
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] Cpasjuste:
Thanks for the launcher fix, i'll include it in next version !
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] CelticWebSolutions:
My pleasure :)
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] kschang:
Can you do the same to the "Google Experience Launcher" that's part of Kitkat, but can be retrofitted to JB builds? :)

I have some time this weekend I plan to try to retrofit GEL with its 3 files onto the HDX. :) I can live without that fix, but thought it'd be interesting to do it.

However, If you install the latest version of gmail and then clear dalvik and cache in recovery, gmail should start working, that what happened for me.

this work for about 20 seconds then I would get sporadic errors on Gmail. wipping cache and dalvik didn't help either...
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] glimmer00:

it's basically running into some sort of a hack Amazon did to intercept the Contacts call to its own Contacts rather than the Google one, much like the one Amazon did the market calls.

Hi DarkenedMatter, thanks for the reports.

This are minor issues for me except the wifi problem. Did you had the first version of this rom installed without this problem ? I think i always had this problem but it was most of the time working fine.

I'll take a look when i will receive my new kindle, and will also take a look at the contacts thing (could you be more precise on the apps used to crash?).
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] DarkenedMatter:
I had the first version installed without an issue when it came to the WiFi. If you start up Kik it will prompt you that it can search your contacts for friends to chat with that already have Kik but when you click "OK" It simply crashes. I also had issues with Kik entering a crashing boot loop and i am sure it was due to something pertaining to the contacts being buggy and i had to uninstall and re-install it.

I also feel like most of the time when my wifi currently messes up is when i lock my screen. I feel like i had an issue with Snapchat too? But i don't honestly recall whether or not if was Snapchat but i did have one more app crash due to something involving contacts. :eek:
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] Cpasjuste:

First of all thanks for all your efforts for what you are doing for fire hdx.

I am trying to install the update-1 ROM. And I noticed one thing and thought to share, if it helps.

At 'Flash/restore stock rom DATA to rom slot (optional, but restore partition if problems)', if I do not restore data, it fails the installation with following error,

set_perm: some changes failed

E:Error executing updater binary I in zip

Error flashing zip

However, if Data is restored, installation is OK.

Once again thanks for your efforts.

The "Welcome - Just a sec" screen take a long time to pass, maybe a minute or so. Else did you also restore your stock data partition to the fresh rom slot before flahsing the ROM ?
