But still, the CM12 rom is awesome. I just love how there is a community to support Kindles. Without you, I would still be running Fire OS, which is Android, just without all of the features that makes android what it is.

Do you think we can get USB otg?

Can you share what you know, or what would be the procedure, so people can investigate it further?

It would be great to have it in this device
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] ffejy462:
It's been brought up a couple times in this thread. Search back a few pages. If I remember right, it's a hardware issue.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] devrruti:
I haven't seen anything about it in this thread. I remember that USB otg was in his "to do" list in an earlier rom, and that he said it would be complicated because there was no documentation about the voltages needed, it would require trial and error.

Maybe he can explain what he knows about it and someone brave can try
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] mrkhigh:
Best i recall It is a hardware issue. The voltage out doesn't exist. I believe it's been brought up the notion of injecting the power into the device with a special built cable, but let's be honest only a half dozen people would go through that much trouble. So it makes it really not worth the effort.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Hashcode:
power pin for OTG was used on the modem. So while we could get OTG to work, it would require use of a powered USB hub and a special toggle in the OS to enable / disable it.

A lot of effort for maybe 1-2 users.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] devrruti:
Ok thanks, so at least it is possible, I will not lose hope :) Maybe one day I can use this:
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] KLit75:
Not that ive thought about it much but why would you want to connect 4 usb ports to your kindle? Are you using it as a linux emulator or something like that? Developing...?

Wouldnt using that many peripherals slow it down?

Actually since the hub is powered i guess itd be ok.

im not being cynical im just curious. Seems cool but maybe not practical?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] devrruti:
This is offtopic and not development, so please ignore or delete:

Well I would use it. I use otg quite a lot on my devices with USB pendrives and microsd card readers (with a microusb and a USB port on each side) to transfer files and use external storages

I bought 2 kindles for family members when I saw they had custom roms, they use them a lot, not me. Fat fingers, short sight, old habits, bigger screen, that connector would be useful to use the kindle as a minipc, as they prefer sometimes

I want to setup an android device with that USB connector i got for the family, to connect to a screen via hdmi, and have keyboard, mouse, pendrive/hardrive for storage and movies, and power. I guess it will be too much but I'll try

I'm currently awaiting for more devices that family will use with that USB adapter, currently they fight for the kindle

The new builds are SElinux enforcing and while I did enable nightlies for testing, I might not recommend them unless you want to help debug and provide feedback.

Nice work Hashcode, looking forward to testing the builds out.

BTW did you ever manage to fix TRIM support? As on CM11.0 it didn't work & you could never get 0 bytes, it just stayed on a certain number everytime.

New version

Im really looking forward to see the new version.

Thanks to [MENTION=4243514]Hashcode[/MENTION] for all the effort.

PS: I have a second generation kindle fire (front facing camera, aka otter?) . Is the new version be compatible with my model?

Regards!
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] RedsonRising:
Tate only.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Hashcode:
Otter models didn't have cameras. This is made more complex by the fact that there was a Kindle Fire 2nd Edition (Otter 2) device. Late in 2012 the 2nd generation Kindle Fire HD's came out: Tate = 7", and Jem = 8.9".

Best way is to open the /system/build.prop of the stock software and check the value of "ro.product.model":

"KFTT"=Tate

"KFJWI"=Jem

Hope that helps

Tonight, I fixed up a UART console issue which was mistakenly attaching to the bluetooth UART instead of the serial UART (thanks [MENTION=886680]js1[/MENTION] for bringing this up at jira.cyanogenmod.org).

We'll see if this settles down the bluetooth crashes / random reboots.

I believe this change made it into the 06/18 nightly.

EDIT: Also updated some bluetooth permissions and SElinux policies. With these changes I was able to confirm bluetooth functionality at least to my wireless speaker for a2dp.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] robbyr:
I posted this in another thread (sorry for the double) but this seemed to be the most appropriate place. Others are having this issue as well. I tried to complete a factory reset from the settings menu and when the device reboots, it's stuck in some sort of recovery loop. The Teamwin logo pops up and just flickers every few seconds. Any ideas? Thanks all!
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] phildafunk:
I've been trying out the releases since they went live until yesterday I went back to CM 11 cause I was tired of the bluetooth issues. I'm downloading and will be installing latest release and see if that clears it up. I see you mentioned a new TWRP that you recommend. Will that be released here? I'm kinda new in these forums :) Also is there a gapps that is recommended for CM 12.1? I notice each time a flash a new CM 12.1 ROM I have to do factory reset to clear the "process com.google.process.gapps has stopped" problem which is kinda annoying or is there a better way. Anyways, thank you for your work!
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] pinkydw:
I'm trying out the 20150618 nightly right now, and just found the 09 one, I'll let you know how it goes.

if it helps, other than the gapps thing (which is probably me making a bad step somewhere) I've been really happy with this version.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] phildafunk:
Just finished installing 06/18 nightly and I'm happy to report that so far is working beautifully with no bluetooth problems to report. Thanks again!
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] pinkydw:
Installed the 06/18 nightly, installed 03/04 gapps, started netflix and google apps asked to update. I can say youtube, netflix, and wifi transfer are all working perfectly. Speed and response is really good too.

For some reason Real Racing 3 doesn't work with this build of CM 12.1, yet it works on Candy5 rom which is CM 12.1 based. Odd.

I really think that I have a tate device because I installed a cyanogenMod 11-20141112-SNAPSHOT-M12-tate version a long time ago and it seems to work fine (some issues with the audio).

There is not way to check the file that u told me because I have the new system and the file has been overwritten. Is there any other way to check the version?

HI,!!

uys i got a question i got the second bootloader installer but was

looooong ago

do i have to update it in order to install lolipop???

and if it is

how.??

thanks.! :D
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] stunts513:
Long story short, second bootloader is a part of the kernel image and it gets reflashed every time you flash a rom(outside of a stock amazon rom). All you need to do is update to the latest version of twrp. Grab the latest twrp zip from the dev section and flash it from your current version of twrp. From there you should be set.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] KLit75:
Where are you guys getting this? I look in the downloads and see the same 2 versions that have been there for months.

Also, its been a few days. Is it still working OK? That's my problem with lp builds. They typically run great for a few days (maybe a week) then I get freezes and random reboots. That's why I've been holding onto cm11 with oc kernel but would love to upgrade.

Hi did you have any luck with this yet? I'm getting the same issue. unable to find any help on the subject. Tried a factory cable tonight, doesn't seem to be any way to communicate with the kindle.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] KLit75:
Says it does in the 2nd post but not sure if it still does (don't know why it wouldn't). Actually just flashed this and converted back to ext4 because I assumed it needed to be. That'd be convenient for me because I like to switch back to cm11 with oc kernel if this doesn't run well.

Anyone confirm the new nightlies work with f2fs?

***Update***Tried and it booted for me with f2fs. You need to Advanced wipe and change file system, (if you're ext4) reboot recovery Format data &reboot recovery then install it. As a final measure i wiped dalvik cache but don't know if it's necessary.

Follow these instructions:

When you say that f2fs works for you you mean that you format the cache partition in f2fs or all the partitions?

I dont have my kindle now but basically i check data then change filesystem to f2fs then i format data. The filesystem shows up f2fs but sorry i cant really speak intelligently on that because i only do it for cm11 with kernel and now this.

But would be interested in more info if my last response wasnt exactly the right answer.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] yoyozzz:
It remains in the blue face logo. I've followed your instructions but it doesn't work.

[MENTION=4243514]Hashcode[/MENTION] has the partitions to be in f2fs, ext4...?What about swipe some partitions? Could you provide some instructions?

Thanks a lot!
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Hashcode:
Formatting cache as f2fs is not supported by the ROM. Unfortunately TWRP will let you do it anyway.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] KLit75:
But data partition can, right? And if so is that the only one?

This ROM's been really stable for at least a few days now. Thanks a lot.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Hashcode:
Yes, data is the only supported F2FS partition.

Managed to use the FireFlash tool to get TWRP 2.7.0.0 onto my Kindle with the approaite bootloader. Got on Cyanogen and it all was working great until a later build. where Google Apps would keep crashing. Later read how I should be on a newer version of TWRP and reloaded both the CyanogenMod and Google apps (with the new link) and it's been very stable thus far.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] eren845:
Thank Hascode, this rom work great!

Everything is smooth and stable so far.

Now I won't be ashamed when somebody borrow my kindle fire anymore!
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] :
Clean flashed from cm11 and everything is stable and quick so far. Some of the newer stuff from cm12+ seems to be broken though, such as livedisplay and some of the quicksettings tiles. Battery save mode toggle doesn't do anything despite the actual switch in battery settings functioning fine. The compass tile is also broken. After letting the tablet sit for awhile and returning to it, the wifi appears to have turned off during sleep as indicated by the empty icon when the screen wakes but it then quickly returns to connected state. This is strange since I have it set to always stay connected even during sleep and, upon checking my router for active connections, the kindle is always listed as normal.

Really nice work overall. I never imagined the kindle fire being able to go this far in usability.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Fireator:
Been using this CM 12 ROM for a while now. I always install Viper4Android on there for better audio settings.

Is there a reason why my SELinux status is set to Enforcing? I've been dirty flashing the nightlies periodically, so I'm not sure if its my settings or changes made to the ROM itself. I've never had to change the status before.... :confused:
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] trinaldi:
Same thing as [MENTION=5212632]Fireator[/MENTION], SELinux status says "Enforcing", but, I'm somehow able to use the root privileges I need.

Is this a TWRP thing or the ROM itself?

Note: I just updated TWRP to its latest version (2.8.7.0 ?) available here.

Installed without factory cable

I just acquired a 7" and wanted it to be off the Amazon ecosystem.

All the instructions talk about the need for a factory cable, but I didn't want to wait, so I just rooted with Bin4ryv33, made sure I had all the files downloaded, updated superSU, adb shell, 'reboot bootloader', then in fastboot, just followed the rest of the instructions, it all went swimmingly.

YMMV.

The tablet is running pretty nicely, haven't hammered on it too much, but the basics all seem to work, netflix, file explorer, mx player, chrome, those are pretty much what I use.

Haven't tried any games, but other than Hearts, I don't play any. Heck, I still can't beat Duke Nuke'm on my PC that I just started replaying... Getting old sux.

Same thing here. I used the automatic updater from the "About Tablet" section and once it finishes flashing, I get spammed with "Unfortunately, Google play service has stopped". Not sure if I'm missing something, I'm pretty new to cyanogenmod and custom ROMs in general.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] psychoTR2:
Yeah, I'm having the same issue. I updated to the 7/08/15 nightly through the "About Tablet" section and when I encountered this problem, I downgraded to 7/06, then installed a separate gapps set (I was using PA full, now I'm using the gapps in the OP) and the problem persisted. I really don't want to have to wipe and start again, like I did when flashing from CM11 to 12.1 through the "About Tablet" updater (encountered the same problem, but much worse), but it looks like I might have to. If it's any help, fixing permissions through TWRP (Advanced Settings≥Fix Permissions) seems to help a bit. But, the Google Play Store has been rendered completely useless on my end.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] KLit75:
I too have been having issues. I'll get a message saying play services needs to be updated. It does eventually update but then further bugs happen like YouTube not loading videos. Then once again it wants me to update play services.

This ROM was running amazing for this tablet but the past week's nightlies have brought quite a few bugs. Been doing full wipes and then clean installing, formatting data back to ext4 but nothings helping. If anyone finds a fix please share.

Guys, I'd be really glad if you could help me out with this.

I even enabled the developer options and I still can't see where to change the cpu clock settings.

Problem with XENDER: It's hard to create a group in the current version. Only can join.

This has to do with the rom right? Is there an alternative app I can use for transfers?

Also, I haven't meddled much with previous versions of CM on my tate. I jumped straight from stock to the current CM version.. So if anyone could recommend the most stable rom I'd be very grateful.

I basically want the following :

No or bare minimum lag.

Good battery back-up.

I don't play much games, so that's not a priority.

I use it to watch a couple of videos and read books, so do keep in mind and suggests me the rom that'll cater my needs. TIA!
