I did some. I see cm being built. Not stable though. Dev ROM has bugs too. But a user who has used both could help
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] CuraeL:
This is niche phone, it doesn't have as broad a following as Samsung, LG or HTC. You'll just have to wait. To answer your question, yes a custom ROM will be better in regards to memory as MIUI has some of the worst RAM managing I've ever seen. Damn this phone chugs through it's memory. MIUI is just too heavy.. And they still talk about how the Lollipop build is still new.. So.. In terms of responsiveness, I'd say Cyanogen or any AOSP rom is worth waiting for as MIUI is heavy and 8 cores in itself doesn't make the device fast, you can have all the cores in the world, but if they were all clocked at like 1GHz the simplest tasks would still be slow. These cores are not the fastest, so running MIUI on them is just a bad idea from the get go. Granted I hoped source code would have been released earlier, but now that Cyanogen is being tested, all there's left to do is wait. And yes, it can ONLY get better. :)

MIUI is **** anyways. Just putting it out there. ^^ - Sorry if that offends, but it is. I bought this phone for the price and to see if it runs AOSP well, if it does, it's a win. If not, I'll sell it again and go buy a phone that actually runs as if it's 2014/15.. Meaning that at least I can open Google Play Music without counting to 5 before it goes from minimized to ready on my screen, lol. How embarrassing. Cyanogen all the way. Light and smooth.. MIUI is everything wrong with bloated stock roms. ^^ This turned into a rant, lul.
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] akash7071:
I agree to most part of what you said. A better optimized ROM and this phone will be snappy.
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] GadRoen:
You can try cm12.1 now, all the problems have been fixed, except FM RADIO :P

[Samsung Gear S] computerguru:
So, just recently, my Gear S has started showing 100% battery...even when the watch has been off the charger for over a day. When it eventually runs out of juice, it just shuts off (doesn't do a shutdown.) It shows 100% even when the watch is turned off, and then plugged into the charger.

Anyone else notice this issue, or have a resolution? I've factory reset the watch twice, but it didn't fix the issue.
[Amazon Fire Phone] romario3600:
A lot of people keep asking how to install Safestrap so i will put it all here.

This only works for 4.6.x versions of FireOS

#ROOT

step1: Download KingRoot http://xdaforums.com/fire-phone/general/root-4-6-1-unlocked-gsm-phone-t3104621

step2: install the apk

step3: press the big button icon in the middle of the screen and wait for the process to complete.

note: (Latest version will be in english, 4.0 is in chinese i believe).

#Safestrap

Step1: now that you are rooted, download safestrap http://xdaforums.com/fire-phone/development/recovery-safestrap-v4-0-1-t3149888

Step2: install like any other apk you download.

Step3: open application and grant it root access when it prompts you.

Step4: once you follow the instructions and install safestrap you can now reboot your device to access recovery

#Accessing recovery:

once safestrap is successfully installed, on boot you should be prompted with a choice of recovery or continue at the bottom of the screen, clicking recovery will get you into the safestrap recovery, everything is touch enabled.

#Installing CM11 (Please backup your contacts before continuing if you have no other way of getting them back)

Step1: Simply download the necessary files here http://xdaforums.com/fire-phone/development/rom-cm-11-20150706-unofficial-t3151443

There is also the alternative SlimKat rom here: http://xdaforums.com/fire-phone/development/rom-slimkat-safestrap-v4-2015-08-28-t3188787

Step2: reboot into safestrap recovery

(For those that wish to backup their FireOS incase they want to go back for any reason)

step2.1: Select Backup

step2.2: Swipe the circle at the buttom of the screen

step2.3: once the process has completed go back to the main screen

(Continuing installation of CM11)

Step3: select the wipe button in RED

step4: swipe the circle at the bottom as instructed to factory reset (NO PERSONAL DATA WILL BE LOST )

step5: go back(button is on the lower right on the screen for those without softkeys)

step6: select the install button in RED

step7: find the folder in which the downloaded CM11 zip is stored

step8: Select the file

step9: Swipe the circle on the button as instructed to confirm flash

step10: wait for process to complete then reboot

You now have CM11 :good:

AT&T Support?

Do you know if these steps will also work on a AT&T Fire Phone running the latest FireOS?
[Amazon Fire Phone] sergio687:
Yes. You only should try to flash CM11 of you're currently on FireOS version 4.6.1

[Amazon Fire Phone] Bingo Bronson:
Download a GAPPS zip file and flash it from safestrap recovery just like you did with the CM11 zip file.

You will have Play Store available after that: continue downloading your favorite browser and apps through the store.

I've gotten my Fire phone rooted, safestrapped, and running CM11.

Just one comment: the linked version of Kingroot is Chinese only. Get the rooting program from here: http://androidxda.com/download-kingroot-application

It took me several tries to gain root, so be patient.

How do I remove Safestrap if I don't want it anymore? I understand flashing a stock ROM, but Safestrap is a different sort of beast.
[Amazon Fire Phone] pevetsa:
root/safestrap/CM11

Got ATT fire phone unlocked - on 4.6.1 and it just updated it self to 4.6.4 - got 4.6.1 / king root 4.5 / safestrap / CM11 and the google play store install files and attempted the following:

- under both 4.6.1 & 4.6.4 the play store would not work - only the initial run before it updates itself to a the current version - kind a killer for me can't get easily contacts etc.

- installed king root 4.5 - works on 4.6.4

- installed safestrap - works on 4.6.4

- backed up the phone

- flashed 4.6.1 - worked - have not tried older version - have not saerched for one yet

- flashed CM11 - worked - but no camera app works on this thing - the build in one can't take a single good picture / flash doesn't work - it is too slow too much flash flash pictures are all white - the google one can't switch to video mode - the camera fx one works ok without flash - have not tried with flash - video is not accessible - says not supported switch to video mode - a better camera doesn't work either

Next step would be try and remove the king root and use Super SU - didn't not like what I'm reading about king root.

cheers
[Amazon Fire Phone] SilverCraw:
So what next?

I have Fire OS 4.6.4 and used Kingroot to root it then installed supersu. I want to get CM11 but not sure how to flash to 4.6.1

Any help?
[Amazon Fire Phone] jack9955:
You don't need 4.6.1, Safestrap and CM-11 will work with Fire OS 4.6.4.
[Amazon Fire Phone] Sampson0420:
ooops... didn't see that I should be safestrapping on top of 4.6.1. Currently running CM11 8/29 build on top of 4.6.3... haven't noticed any issues, camera, play store, etc all seems to be working. Granted this is just a backup phone and has not be put through the ringer. What issues should I expect to see, any issues I should try to reproduce??? Don't mind being the guinea pig here.
[Amazon Fire Phone] romario3600:
As of now the biggest issues seem to be camera, 5ghz WiFi and play store crashes. There are other bugs but check the cm11 post in the developer section to see what's going on.

[Amazon Fire Phone] gsmhelper:
So if I need to use camera on this phone (13MP), I should not flash CM11?
[Amazon Fire Phone] djretouch:
After install

So i've followed your instructions and after reboot the phone just started up as if it was my initial setup of the fire os. Is that supposed to happen or should it be booting up as android? Sorry for the noob question but i have no idea what i'm doing.

As it just booted up into fire os i assumed it had not worked so allowed it to restore to a previous backup.. Guessing that has messed everything up right?

[Amazon Fire Phone] chipis:
Ok after rooting and installing safestrap can other roms for this phone be flash other than CM11? [MENTION=5324437]romario3600[/MENTION]
[Amazon Fire Phone] romario3600:
The only other rom at the moment is SlimKat, its very much possible for other roms to be installed however development is current only being focus on CM11, once all the bugs have been sorted out I'm sure you may start seeing other roms being ported.
[Amazon Fire Phone] chipis:
ok so before flashing another rom, it has to be CM11 first?

Also does CM11 and slimkat has play store added?
[Amazon Fire Phone] romario3600:
no you don't have to install cm11 first just ensure the ROM belongs to the device you are installing it on.

and no playstore isn't included in roms as google doesn't allow developers to preinstall it. You will have to flash the gapps package after installing the ROM. The process itself doesn't take very long though. :good:
[Amazon Fire Phone] chipis:
Great Bro, thanks
[Amazon Fire Phone] Youngbilly:
Help, I brick my phone

I followed the guide and everything was good after cm11. Then I tried to install google play store and it only did a partition then I rebooted!

No my phone will not start, only have Amazon logo on the screen. I think I wiped my OS.

What can I do now?
[Amazon Fire Phone] jack9955:
Reinstalling Fire OS may work. Follow the steps in my reply to Deltareaper619
[Amazon Fire Phone] Youngbilly:
Thanks, that worked!

It is now updated to 4.6.6, I assume the procedure in this thread still work?

Also, when I messed up, I was trying to load google play store after successfully flushed with CM11 , the file some how are not installed right.

I am planning to do this again. Could you point me to a correct file for Google Play Store?

Thanks again for the rescue.
[Amazon Fire Phone] jack9955:
Glad to hear your phone works. I don't use CM11, so I don't which Google Play Store Open Gapps works best with CM11. If you want to add Google Play Store to Fire OS, then see [MENTION=2465019]munkymack[/MENTION] post [GUIDE] New Fire Phone with FireOS and Google Apps - A Start-to-Finish Walkthrough.
[Amazon Fire Phone] wec777:
Can't see restore data on second phone (both 4.6.6)

I'm helping a number of friends upgrade to smartphones and the one I chose was the Amazon Fire phone. So I made a backup image of the completely configured phone (minus user accounts): apps, updates, settings, etc., about 4 hours of work.

I then copied that data to a freshly-wiped-safestrap-installed Amazon Fire phone (both are 4.6.6), rebooted into Safestrap (Kodiak-4.0.1-B01) and clicked on RESTORE, but nothing shows up under internal memory (the only option since these have no SD card slot). If I open FILE MANAGER inside Safestrap, I can see the TWRP and subfolders under \sdcard, but SafeStrap doesn't see them.

What am I doing wrong? If this isn't going to work, is there another way to create a full system backup to restore on another phone?
[Amazon Fire Phone] :
You said, you copied the whole "TWRP" folder to your internal storage, including the ".twrps" file and exact subfolder hierarchy...

Just make a backup on the new device (although you personally don't need it) so that TWRP gets "initialized" and replace your image files in the newly created subfolder.

It should be able to "see" them now (the "random numbers and letters" folder is different / unique, that's why). ;)

[Amazon Fire Phone] jerico9:
Need some help please guys. I've asked this already in another thread but as the numbers dwingle of fire phone users, the less replies you get. It's still a great device with the right mods.

Ok I'm on 4.6.6 rooted with kingroot installed safestrap then flashed CM11 with gapps. Worked a treat... So I thought. When Ive come to reinstall kingroot, it won't install. I get root strategy unavailable. I've tried other versions but still not working. Most apps say not rooted some give me errors saying it's rooted. I can still get in to recovery but says safestrap not active. I did do a back up of FOS but I'm more than happy with all the changes I've done to my phone so don't wanna start again. If anyone could point me in the right direction, it would be very much appreciated
[Amazon Fire Phone] romario3600:
If I'm not mistaken, doesn't cm11 come with super user? if not it would have been the recommended application to install as kingroot's integrity is questionable. In any case if the prior is true then you will run into trouble trying to root the device from kingroot.

Try uninstalling kingroot from cm11 and flashing the latest version of superuser or download it from the app store.
[Amazon Fire Phone] Handsome Jack:
Does install CM11 that it will remove KingRoot completely?

I'm thinking to use Super-Sume Pro after root with KingRoot.

Like this:

ROOT with KingRoot

Run Super-Sume Pro to remove KingRoot

Install Safestrap

Accessing recovery

Install CM11
[Amazon Fire Phone] jontpt:
Actually, you need to use Kingroot after installing CM11. Then, use SuperSu-Me to remove Kingroot, get SuperSU pro to preserve root during updates (otherwise you have do the Kingroot, SuperSU-Me thing every time), and you're set.
[Amazon Fire Phone] Plonko:
Kingroot, Install Safestrap and then Flash CM11,, GAPPS, and SuperSU in Safestrap. Follow the CM11 OP install instructions and it wipes Kingroot out of your system. Super-ume is only needed if you're planning on running FireOS.

100% Wrong. Clearly, you were trying to be helpful, but you have to be certain you're not propagating false information.

Kingroot is only needed to root FireOS. SuperSU can be flashed directly from Safestrap after CM11 and GAPPS (prior or after first boot).
[Amazon Fire Phone] jontpt:
I see... So the fact that I've been doing it this way since ggow first released CM11 for Fire Phone has been 100% unsuccessful. Thanks for the reality check! Here's one for you: why don't you see if your phone is actually rooted? 'Cause I'm willing to bet it ain't. SuperSU won't preserve root during OS updates unless you have the paid version and set it to do so. The initial root doesn't last. But maybe mine is different from all the others? Who knows? And, btw, Kingroot won't just disappear on its own. You need SuperSU-Me for that.

So here's my method:

1. Follow OP instructions for initial CM11 install

2. Run SuperSU-Me to get rid of Kingroot

3. Buy SuperSu Pro. Install. Set to preserve root during updates

4. Enjoy

Just trying to be helpful again...
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
[MENTION=690558]Plonko[/MENTION] is correct

Also the installation instructions for CM-11 are in the OP of the CM-11 thread.
[Amazon Fire Phone] jontpt:
Well, far be it for me to argue with ggow, so I won't. All I can say is that on my phone root is lost between updates unless SuperSu Pro is set to preserve it. I've only changed OSs once, during the initial FireOS removal, so maybe my memory is lapsing. I do know that if you use the free SuperSU you'll need to re-root with KingRoot every time a new CM11 build is available, and then use SuperSU-Me to remove it. That's a serious pita. I went through this with at least 3 CM11 versions till I finally caved and bought the paid app. But that's only my experience...
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
SuperSU version 2.46 is the version you need. Are you using this version?

To avoid the situation of not having root after CM11 upgrade, just flash SuperSU 2.46 in Safestrap directly after flashing CM-11 then reboot and you should be all good.
[Amazon Fire Phone] jontpt:
I'm using SuperSU Pro v2.79, set to preserve root between upgrades. Never tried flashing it directly (other than the initial flash after switching from FireOS). That might be a good tip to add to the upgrade instructions on the Lineage page.
[Amazon Fire Phone] Plonko:
I'm definitely rooted, so please feel free to deposit whatever the wager was into my Paypal account.

And for the record, I didn't say your way didn't work. I simply corrected your inaccurate assertion that Kingroot was required to root CM11 and that Super-Sume were necessary to remove Kingroot. Neither of these are true. The SuperSU zip can be directly flashed after CM11 and GAPPS.

Lesson for the day, don't double down on things you know nothing about.
[Amazon Fire Phone] jontpt:
I know one thing, and that's that you're an arrogant little a..-.... I'll gladly double and triple down on that. Plus, you're wrong, and more than a few poor schmucks are gonna find that out the hard way.
[Amazon Fire Phone] Handsome Jack:
Ok, can someone post a guide that come with Super-Sume Pro to get rid of Kingroot?

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=darkslide.com.supersumepro&hl=en

I just bought a used Amazon Fire phone on eBay. First time do this.
[Amazon Fire Phone] jontpt:
Sure, it's easy. Just install Super Sume and run it. It walks you through the steps. Mostly involves pressing a big blue button... :)
[Amazon Fire Phone] Handsome Jack:
Does this mean that only SuperSU version 2.46 will keep root after CM11 upgrade?

Newer version 2.79 won't keep root?
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
I haven't tried 2.79 for this device, it's just that for any kitkat roms on the Fire Phone I only use version 2.46 because I know it works.
[Amazon Fire Phone] Handsome Jack:
I'm not planning to go back to FireOS.
