[Amazon Fire Phone] :
Tested Teamviewer Quick Support back in March '16 and It was working properly on AOSP rom, now on CM it only offers file transfer, chat, etc.

I'll try something and report back...

edit:

As expected, AOSP is fine with remote control. With CM, no remote, add-on doesn't get offered...

There have been some mods in the past (very old, before CM11) where they signed the APK with Cyanogenmod platform keys but who knows if this approach still works with newer versions...
[Amazon Fire Phone] Plonkplonk:
Data was indeed used by Google Play Services. Did a clean install and everything is fine again ...
[Amazon Fire Phone] geografias2:
How I can do this? Please explain more.
[Amazon Fire Phone] Paras5:
Hello, So you asked how to do the QR Code thing, Its simple. Just take the screenshot of it or if it is on something real like a box or something take a picture and most of the QR code reader offer to read from IMAGES so what you have to do is to click on the Image / Gallery Button (Different apps will have different icons) and choose the image to read from and once done it will detect and TADA!
[Amazon Fire Phone] geografias2:
Thanks but I asking about if that work on the whatsapp web service, and how to do
[Amazon Fire Phone] Ezequiel G.:
MOD EDIT: Please do not quote the OP

Take out the version of CM 13 for Amazon Fire Phone? :o
[Amazon Fire Phone] Moogagot:
Hey GGOW! Long time, no post. It should be no surprise that Google Duo is unable to access the camera. Any ideas on fixing that or is this a camera issue as always?
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
Yes, it is the same Camera issue.
[Amazon Fire Phone] geografias2:
Thanks, but you can explain how works that's with Whatsapp??? This can do better this ROM

Thanks, but you can explain how works that with Whatsapp??? This can do better this ROM
[Amazon Fire Phone] geografias2:
Please. Some body help me (and every body to) with how to do for Scan the QR code for whatsapp to use whatsapp web with this ROM? Who please can help with this? If have solutions, of course. Maybe it's simple, but I don't now what I can do... and I think that some one like me have the same problem.
[Amazon Fire Phone] tarnyc:
You can't. It's the same known issue with the camera.
[Amazon Fire Phone] geografias2:
Ok. Thanks very much. I hope that we can update our fire phone to 5.0 OS some day. Or unlock the boot loader to have a decent Cyanogenmod ROMs.

Just I hope.
[Amazon Fire Phone] Paras5:
I am sorry but i don't use whatsapp so sorry :(
[Amazon Fire Phone] Plonkplonk:
Today I have a different question. I want to replace the ear phones by something else, but I really like the volume control.

Does anyone use Fostex or Marley pieces with remote control and can tell whether the volume buttons work or not?

mixed file versions

[IMG="Phone screen"]http://i66.tinypic.com/ogmc0z.jpg[/IMG]

So I've had this Fire Phone since they came out and finally decided to root it. I referenced an old thread and got the files needed but had an older version of Kingroot. Changed it to (V4.80_c1) and also got the latest Gapps (open_gapps-arm tock20160817) for 4.4 but used the older cm-11-60806 kodiak and SuperSu v2.46. Everything flashed yesterday first attempt. Several files updated themselves as soon as I got on the internet. I then added open camera. So far this phone has never operated better. It is extremely quick and the camera has never been better. Play store woks just fine. Does anyone see a problem with the combination of files I may run into later on?
[Amazon Fire Phone] Ezequiel G.:
Anyone know whether it will CyanogenMod 13 for Amazon fire phone? :crying:

Hope so ! I really liked CyanogenMod on my Amazon Fire Phone !!! :D :D
[Amazon Fire Phone] ponghclub:
[MENTION=3592880]tweak.[/MENTION].... congratulations to jump in it's not perfect but it's better remember each device have it own behavior when you apply new update you have to find the one that work best on your device.... good luck.
[Amazon Fire Phone] DNS_ERR:
Would be nice if someone could get Google Duo to work with the Kodiak ROM. It's the first time I've been disappointed about the camera.
[Amazon Fire Phone] jokergermany:
Thanks, thats my Problem.

I asked teamviewer and this is the answer:

Thats the answer translated into english

Anyone know how to fix this?
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
I'll take a look into this before the next release.
[Amazon Fire Phone] topcaser:
Hi, has anyone betterbatterystats running on the phone without problems? Or is it my setup why it's not working?

Gesendet von meinem SM-N910F mit Tapatalk
[Amazon Fire Phone] Plonkplonk:
Yes. Currently running 2.2.0.0B6 on the latest build.

edit: Updated to RC1 yesterday and still all is fine.

[Amazon Fire Phone] jman315:
Probably a stupid and redundant question, but is this link below helpful in continuing development for this device?

https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=201497520
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
No it isn't unfortunately.
[Amazon Fire Phone] Ezequiel G.:
Someone could tell me whether it will CM13 for Amazon Fire Phone?

I'm looking forward ! ! :D
[Amazon Fire Phone] Guttergorm:
Unlikely, likely only if Amazon Updates FireOS for the Fire Phone which is - unlikely.
[Amazon Fire Phone] tonochito:
you should update that snapchat is working at least for me with the last build and snap camera 8.04, but bar codes still not working and is weird
[Amazon Fire Phone] LilLowEK:
Hi there! I've been a long time user of this rom and I'm proud to say it's been my daily driver for a good while now, so thank you! I'm curious what your prediction is for the future of this phone. Is it your daily driver or have you moved on to another device? I have hopes Amazon releases the official 5.0 release that you can easily build on, yet I am having my doubts like many others. At the same time I remember you mentioning you were building 5.0 in another method.

What are your thoughts on the current development and it's possible future? Lastly, any thoughts on the FirePhone hardware vs the new budget blu phones amazon is selling for a fair price to prime members?
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
I have three Fire Phones all of which are in use for dev purposes. I used to use 1 of them as my daily driver and apart from the obvious issues with the camera I thought it was great.

Other thoughts:

- I don't think we'll get FireOS 5.0 from Amazon :(

- Amazon did a fine job locking the bootloader down so is most likely going to remain locked :(

- The Fire Phone has much better specs than the blu phones

- The blu phones use the mediatek chipsets so I personally will be steering well clear of them.

- The blu phones may be quite difficult to develop roms for due to lack of information.
[Amazon Fire Phone] tonochito:
I think Amazon will never release Fire OS 5 for this device, has been two years and it's sad it's a good specs phone,

mine has survived a lot of falls and the screen is almost with no scratches, just the corners get some chips. I had an HTC One E8 and it fell and the screen got partially a almost noticeable crack. Battery is good and with this phone i get good data speeds, i don't know why but i almost get around 10mb of download and 6mb upload, with my Lumia Icon i barely reach 5mb or 6mb and sometimes but in the midnight around 9mb.

My only complain will be that the spearkers are so low...

And all of this for me was so cheap less than 60 bucks, i am amazed how well it is after a one year of use/abuse
[Amazon Fire Phone] LilLowEK:
Thank you for the prompt and detailed response. I'll steer clear of the blu phones if it's taking a step back in hardware, I value your opinion. Will you continue supporting CM11 as far as security patches and what not? Lastly, how's your progress with the CM13 you've been working on? :)
[Amazon Fire Phone] mifl:
The bootloader is locked in this device. For this reason we can not make the necessary changes to the kernel to build versions of CyanogenMod above of cm-11.0.

If you, or another user, wants to collaborate can write to Amazon support requesting that the bootloader can be unlocked.

Greetings.
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
I will continue supporting CM11 and Fire Nexus ROM, I am integrating the september security patches at the moment.

I am still looking into CM-12.1, but haven't had much time to dedicate to it.

CM-13.0 is a definite no
[Amazon Fire Phone] LilLowEK:
Nice, thanks for the update! Cm12 must have been what I remember you posting about, thanks again!
[Amazon Fire Phone] ferolac:
i don't know what happened but it is "optimizing app" on every reboot. I tried clean install but it is still doing it, any solutions?
[Amazon Fire Phone] dato02:
did you switch from dalvik to art?
[Amazon Fire Phone] ferolac:
no
[Amazon Fire Phone] jschramm:
I have this installed on a couple fire phones for my kids. Latest update to Pokemon Go doesnt work since this rom is rooted. Any suggestions? Can I unroot this rom? Thanks.
[Amazon Fire Phone] dato02:
you gotta use magist that requires xposed or unroot.
[Amazon Fire Phone] jschramm:
What is the easiest way to unroot cm11?
[Amazon Fire Phone] dato02:
there should be an option inside supersu app.
[Amazon Fire Phone] Yisheng:
I'm looking forward to your CM12 rom. Keep it up!
[Amazon Fire Phone] jschramm:
that worked, thanks.
[Amazon Fire Phone] kcamp_99:
pokemon go, root, fire phone

jschramm : you got Pokemon Go to work by unchecking "Enable superuser" in SuperSU settings?... I horsed around with SuperSU. Root was off according to a rootchecker -- but while going a step further - past the Niantic screen to the Loading screen, Pokemon GO crashed at the "Device is not compatible" screen. Magisk only works with an unlocked bootloader and from my understanding the fire phone bootloader hasn't been cracked yet. Did you go with Full unroot? Any further advice? thanks
[Amazon Fire Phone] fk00:
Nope, just disabling the superuser didn't work for me. I had to push "Fully Unroot" or something like this. SuperSU shows warning message then and PokemonGo started to work for me.
[Amazon Fire Phone] sergio687:
It didn't work for me just fully unrooting. You have to uninstall Xposed too (go to the Xposed Installer app, then Installer, Uninstall, restart; and uninstall the app after the restart), then fully unroot and, if it doesn't work yet, wipe the dalvik cache.

(Not related to the last paragraph)

Wow, now I've got a problem. I have a banking app that seems to not support CyanogenMod (maybe because they think it's not secure or some other nonsense). This is the link (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bcp.bank.bcp). I needed root just to install Xposed and then RootCloak for it to work, but now Pokémon GO needs the system to be fully unrooted. Does anyone know what I should do to be able to use both apps?
[Amazon Fire Phone] conbak49:
Just flashed this a few days ago after having used the original OS for a long time. CM 11 is like having a new phone. Especially with the ability to customize even further with Xposed. Great work! Thanks!
[Amazon Fire Phone] SuperT.A.:
I have created a database of apps where the camera does not work. You can also submit apps if you like. You can find it at https://techunpacked.wordpress.com/fpcmcamsupport/.
[Amazon Fire Phone] SHRAPNEL189:
Anyone have a fix to get the Hulu app working with Chromecast? I have a Moto G (Osprey) that works flawlessly with my Chromecast but my Fire Phone doesn't pick up my Chromecast in the Hulu app. Other apps cast fine and I can even cast my entire screen.

Edit: to clarify casting Hulu to Chromecast is the issue
[Amazon Fire Phone] tarnyc:
I've been trying to get my pokemon go to work, tried unrooting, reflashing without root, neither of those worked. Didn't consider Xposed. I'll try that and report back.

Edit: Nope, no dice.

New Build is Up

[Amazon Fire Phone] Yisheng:
Downloading now, thank you [MENTION=5749760]ggow[/MENTION]
[Amazon Fire Phone] sergio687:
Are you sure you have left your phone completely root-free and Xposed-free? It's not just uninstalling the app, but uninstalling every module (disabled first) and then the framework.
[Amazon Fire Phone] Ezequiel G.:
The camera does not work for record video
[Amazon Fire Phone] KLit75:
So did u actually get the newest Pokemon go working? I cant...

First--i tried full unroot and verified it worked through terminal

Then--figured it was somehow detecting xposed (NO idea how?) so i flashed the rom and rerooted just so i could flash xposed uninstaller (which failed in TWRP btw)

Normal Factory reset in twrp didnt work either so I did a full wipe and flashed the newest CM (without su of course)

STILL get the same message that it doesnt work with this setup (or something like this)

Personally I could care less about the game but my son uses this phone now and hes looking like a guy in detox.

Anyone confirm the newest Pokemon update works here?
[Amazon Fire Phone] sergio687:
This might be the problem: You don't uninstall Xposed on KitKat that way. The Xposed Uninstaller script is for SDK 21 and above. Uninstalling before Lollipop is easier. Just open the Xposed framework app and, in Framework, select Uninstall. Then restart (no thing on TWRP, or Bootstrap or any other stuff). Then just uninstall the Xposed app the old fashioned way (through Settings, or just dragging the icon to the trashcan). After that, unroot. Restart and, inside Bootstrap, wipe dalvik cache and cache.
[Amazon Fire Phone] KLit75:
Thanks. But now xposed SHOULD be gone, no? Doesnt wiping system get rid of it?

Currently I cant see /system because it is unrooted but Im pretty sure its gone.

Sidenote--I hate this move by Niantic. Penalize or permanently ban the cheaters but if this were still my device theres no way Id compromise.
[Amazon Fire Phone] jokergermany:
Anything new concerning my teamviewer problem?
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
Still looking into that. Haven't had much time.
[Amazon Fire Phone] LilLowEK:
Thanks for the update! Installing soon. :)
[Amazon Fire Phone] topcaser:
I can't get betterBatteryStats get working. It says that it could not start and I shall convert betterBatteryStats to a system app. It offers two ways to do this: the first one is by trying to use root the other one is to install it via recovery. I don't like to to the second way since the zip files seems to be old. The first way produces an error on my device.

I tried also to reinstall betterBatteryStats, but it shows the same behavior. Is someone here who can help me with that problem?
[Amazon Fire Phone] ferolac:
yeah it beats me too, on older builts installing BetterBatteryStats was no fuzz but these newer builts are buggy for example gps does not work and stays on even when it is turned off . i am guessing this phone is at its limit :(
[Amazon Fire Phone] Utsuho:
problem about NFC

There's a problem with current version of CM-11:

I can not use NFC to read NFC tags (Mifare Class 1k Card)

Under CM11, the Fire phone's NFC can be used in P2P mode to transfer something to other phone by Android Beam.

But I can not use NFC to read Mifare Class 1k Card use the Mifare Classic Tool ( github.com/ikarus23/MifareClassicTool )

It even has no tips when I place a card under the NFC antenna.

But if I modified the config line in file ( /system/etc/libnfc-nxp.conf ),

I changed "MIFARE_READER_ENABLE=0x01" to "MIFARE_READER_ENABLE=0x00"

Mifare Classic Tool will tips me the UID of the card which I placed, and it also tell me that my devices do not support to read or write the card.

When I'm using the stock FireOS, everyting is OK.

I can use Mifare Classic Tool to read and write card without problems.

So, please help to solve this bug. Thanks a lot !!!
[Amazon Fire Phone] tarnyc:
Yes, these are the steps I followed:

1) uninstall every xposed module

2) uninstall the xposed framework

3) reboot

5) uninstall xposed installer app

4) uninstall every app that requires root

5) unroot via supersu app

6) uninstall supersu app

7) reboot

8) flash ggow's new build for good measure, wipe cache/dalvik

Did not work. Any other ideas?
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
In safestrap, you can't wipe /system partition directly. You should use the cleansystempartition.zip linked in the OP. This will wipe the /system partition leaving safestrap recovery intact. However you must flash a new ROM before rebooting.

This is needed because I modified safestrap to protect the safestrap recovery.
[Amazon Fire Phone] KLit75:
Good info. Thanks. But I actually got it working today. Full Unroot from supersu hung but then succeeded. Wipe dalvik cache & Pokemon go loaded. Not sure why it didnt before.

I had forgotten all about the cleansystem zip--prob would've tried that first. Thanks again

Anyone facing this problem?

After every reboot i am seeing this message "andriod is upgarding" optimizing apps..
[Amazon Fire Phone] Plonkplonk:
Me, too, but only with the latest version. But I know this happend to other users before with older builds, while CM11 did not show this behaviour on my phone since now. I can live with this ...
[Amazon Fire Phone] bungholio69balls:
I just started experiencing the same issue myself. I'm wondering if it's due to the root method I used this time (I had gone back to unrooted stock FireOS for a while, just to see if things had improved. They hadn't).

I had previously rooted with the method found here, but the version of Kingroot included with that post no longer seems to work (tap the button, get an icon showing an email and no futher actions happen). I downloaded the latest Kingroot and was able to get root, but during that post's steps to remove Kingroot before installing supersu, there were a number of files that weren't where the post said they should be.

I'm wondering if there were some traces of Kingroot remaining that are causing the issue. Happy to provide additional information/logs/etc if they will help in resolution.

Bad reception

I am having terrible reception with this ROM. Is there anything I can do to make it better?
[Amazon Fire Phone] hassantalal11:
I am also facing this issue in the latest build i think this is due to ART.

---------- Post added at 06:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:25 AM ----------

In stock rom all is working perfect. Cm11 was also working perfect since the last update i am facing this issue.

Use "supersu me" i will delete kingroot and install supersu. Latest kingroot is not working kingroot 4.8.6 is working to root the stock 4.6.6.1
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
No seems fine here, during making changes month to month I go through several upgrades and not seeing the issue.
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
Shouldn't be using king root with cm11. You should flash SuperSU 2.46 and install the update survival script from the SuperSU app.
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
Are you suffering from quality problems?

Cm11 generally reports lower reception level than stock fire os.

I did some comparison if the radio signal level in db and they were almost the same.
[Amazon Fire Phone] hassantalal11:
Maybe its due to latest gapps used. I will test with older ones and report u back. Thanks
[Amazon Fire Phone] ferolac:
Any fix for gps??? it keeps running even after its turned off. Only way to make it stop is to restart the phone.
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
Need to look into it, is anyone else experiencing this?
[Amazon Fire Phone] Kramer101:
It's pretty much unusable as a phone. Even when it's showing 2-3 bars it will completely drop the signal when you try to make a phone call. When receiving a call, the phone will ring, but as soon as you answer it, the call is dropped. I've tried the same simm in another phone and it works fine. I've tried reinstalling the simm and also restarting the phone, clearing cache etc. Nothing seems to help.

Any sugestions?
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
Send some logcat information, I'll take a look.

Not experiencing that myself so it's all I can suggest at the moment.

Call quality has always been good here with the fire phone. Also LTE speeds are much better than with other devices I have.
[Amazon Fire Phone] ferolac:
Another issue is that it takes forever to send a video or audio in whatsapp no matter how small it is, media uploads then load and start uploadimg again and after that it says retry and this goes on for like 7-8 times
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
Could you go to the sim status page and send me a screenshot. It should have signal level in db
[Amazon Fire Phone] Kramer101:
Ok. I've installed Logcat and will compile data today. I'll send you the data tomorrow.

I appreciate you willing to take a look at my problem. Thank you.
[Amazon Fire Phone] ferolac:
i use wifi not mobile data
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
There are a lot of variables when it comes to WiFi. All I can say is there are no problems here with throughput. I regularly grab stuff off my file server and no speed issues. I did some speed tests - i'll check again on the new build and post back when I have time.
[Amazon Fire Phone] conbak49:
Love this ROM and it works great for almost everything I need. I am having 1 problem. When I use the dialer app my #4 button either does not always respond or it sticks until I tap another #. Anyone else experiencing this? Is there a way to replace the built in dialer w something like DW dialer? I use DW, but when I tap the call button after entering a number the call goes to the built in dialer. #s entered after that like voicemail access code go through the built in dialer and that's where I get the sticky #4. Any help appreciated.

Android is upgrading optimizing apps

I am also having this issue after every reboot. "Android is upgrading" optimizing apps
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
Would you mind telling me a bit more about your phone setup.

When you first installed CM:

Which variant of gapps?

Did you flash supersu, if so which version

When you upgrade, do you just flash the ROM and reboot?
[Amazon Fire Phone] rjjr12:
It's been a few months, this last update was the second time I have updated. I usually just flash and reboot, but this last time I did factory reset also, I use arm 4.4 factory Gapps, and I can never get survival mode to work for su, and did try kingroot, but ultimately I just reflashed su. Thanks so very much
[Amazon Fire Phone] ferolac:
No, its just with sending videos and audio files on whatsapp, there is no problem with sending images on whatsapp. Plus whats make me so sure is that there is no problem with facebook messenger. i can send both audio and video files without any problem.
[Amazon Fire Phone] hassantalal11:
I am also experiencing same issue but I send media files a few times ....or once in a month

---------- Post added at 07:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:41 PM ----------

Issue is resolved by using older version of gapps firstly I was using 20 sep open gapps pico super su 2.78 and now 30 July open gapps pico auper su 2.76 both clean install. Thanks ggow for addressing our issue.
[Amazon Fire Phone] bungholio69balls:
I'd like to avoid Kingroot entirely, but I'm unaware of any other method to actually *achieve* root in the first place. I was coming from stock unrooted FireOS - is there another root method besides KR? I'd love to know about it! I haven't seen another in my searches.
[Amazon Fire Phone] romario3600:
My gyroscope and light sensor stops working after some time, it only fixes when I reboot, I've also had problems with the proximity sensor noticing when my ear is at the phone during a call. The build date on this ROM is July 16th. Is anyone else having these issues

Just a note: This ROM has not been rooted or tampered with in anyway
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
To get root on CM-11 just flash SuperSU 2.46 zip from Safestrap.
