Yes, on 4.6.1 the camera button did pull the phone from standby into operational mode with display on and Amazon camera app started. Taking the phone out of your pocket in the right moment, just one button touch and you were ready to take a photo. I liked that very much.

I tested the Xposed Additions module which can be used to set any kind of operation to hardware buttons. However, it could only do the same thing as ggow described: when display is on (either locked or on home screen), it does fire an app. When display is off, i won't wake up, however, an app can be launched and after unlocking, the app is running already.
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
- I'll take a look into then and see what can be done.

I'm on holiday for a week from Monday so after that :)
[Amazon Fire Phone] keinam.ty:
nice! you def. deserve vacation !!!

Please note as stated in my other reply. I've installed Zoom Camera that let me set it as default camera in the app settings. Since then I can start that app with a camera button.

Enjoy your time off!
[Amazon Fire Phone] puddlejumper83:
Hi, first of all, thank you so much for this build.

I have a question and I'm sorry if it has been asked here before, there are just too many threads to go through. :p

when you push a new build, and I want to update to that build, do I have to wipe the device clean every time like the first time I flash the ROM?

Thanks again.
[Amazon Fire Phone] keinam.ty:
Sorry - I've missed your post.

So once I set zoom camera as default app.... The button:

- it does not wake the phone when the screen of off

- it starts zoom camera app regardless I am using some other app of not. But the phone have to be unlocked.

CPU Spy reloaded

In case you missed this on xda home page today...

http://www.xda-developers.com/optimize-battery-life-with-this-useful-app/

I read about a few users complaining about battery drain (some say its bad, some say its great--thats my take). This app has a nice simple, good looking UI and might be a big help for the people with battery issues. Pretty detailed info on what's waking up and staying awake too long. If your phone is draining quick CPU Spy reloaded might tell you why.

I just thought since ggow is taking a well deserved break this might be something for people to look into. Personally, I think battery life on this ROM isnt something that needs much tweaking but for those who feel different I'd advise you to try the app.
[Amazon Fire Phone] hastings101:
I think battery problems were mostly when NFC was being worked on and wasn't completely disabled; the phone never went to sleep. I'm getting close to stock now. Good share though.
[Amazon Fire Phone] Chocolina:
Does anyone know if there is an Xposed mod that lets you swipe from the bottom to go back like in Fire OS? The navigation for Fire Os was my favorite part.

Dual Boot or Stock ROM restore

This is a great os it's just photos were far more superior on fire os. I read something about dual booting the two. I was curious on how I'd go about that. If that's a little risky I could use some help on going back to stock fire os for now. I'm still a little newby to the flashing scene. Any help would be greatly appreciated! :)
[Amazon Fire Phone] ggow:
Dual boot in my experience doesn't provide full functionality at the moment.

- In safestrap take a backup of your cm11 rom then...

- To return to fireos follow the instructions this link.

There was a post earlier in this thread that had instructions on how to set this up.
[Amazon Fire Phone] XRAYcr:
Any progress on the camera crash when reading a QR? I have tried several and none of it worked.

Same with WhatsApp web app. When the instructions are shown, the camera on the background works fine, but when you continue for scanning the QR code, the camera freeze and after some time the camera crash. Only way to get it working fine it's restarting the device.
[Amazon Fire Phone] sergio687:
It's a well known issue, ggow is working on it. It's not just QR but many apps that use the camera. He's already said it's a complex problem, and as such he hasn't given an estimated time. We'll just have to wait :)
[Amazon Fire Phone] aegoyu:
Please fix the camera!

I cannot use any video-call apps at the moment!!!

I know it's a complex problem, but there must be a way out.
[Amazon Fire Phone] Plonko:
There is a way out: It's a DevDB project, meaning you're welcome to educate yourself, join the team, and submit fixes for the camera. I'm sure ggow would be happy to have other developers join the team to help lessen the load resting solely on his shoulders.

Otherwise, your post does absolutely nothing to move the conversation forward as the camera problems are already well documented and the developer has stated on numerous occasions that he hasn't given up for further improvements.

Amazon fire camera apk

I'm currently on the cm11 is. I was wondering if there were anyway I could go back to stock is and copy the fire os camera apk and then put it on the cm11 is when I switch back to it. I'm not sure how or if this would work. Just an idea.

IMEI missing and no network available

Hello,

I installed according to the listed steps, and while I am delighted to break free of Amazon's system (thank you!), I don't have a network showing up and after reinstalling a couple times I dug deeper and found that there is no IMEI listed, and apparently the phone doesn't think that I have a sim card it in, because it asks me to put one in when it starts. I still have the Fire software on the "Stock Rom" and when I load that it works fine.

Issues that may be different than most people are

- This phone was originally purchased in the UK. Don't know if that would make a difference

- Network I am using is Metro PCS

Has anyone else had this problem and found a solution? Or any tips from those who may have an idea to solve this? Any feedback would be much appreciated!
[Amazon Fire Phone] dhack21:
Sounds like you flashed CM11 in the non stock slot. Go back to safe strap and flash CM11 in stock slot. If the phone is unlocked you shouldn't have problems on Metro PCS.
[Amazon Fire Phone] grambos:
SOLVED

Thank you - that was it. I just flashed to the stock slot and everything is working like magic!
[Amazon Fire Phone] k1mu:
That won't work. If it was that easy, it would have already been done.. the stock camera depends upon the Amazon framework and won't work unless the that's installed. If you want a stock FireOS phone, go ahead and use that. :)

Hmm. Interesting. You're right, changing it channel 36 works.

Why the restricted channel space? I have two APs , so I guess I can set them to 36 and 40, but it'd be nice to be able to use the whole band.

Is this caused by a missing country code in some configuration file, or some other quirk?

I'm not sure...and BTW (I meant to type 36 thru 48) But this is the 2nd device I've had running cm that needs to be on a lower channel to work (others a kindle fire with lp). I'm just glad 5ghz is working and its working well.
[Amazon Fire Phone] Darcw0lf:
While I love this and am VERY happy to be rid of amazons horrible OS, ever since I "upgraded" to this OS my connection has been horrible for data, usually getting only about 25% signal strength if that. Also most places even though I can see a signal I cannot pick up any kind of data connection. The actual phone itself seems to work fine, but data if really bad, is this something that is being worked on, or did I just do something wrong?

What are your options if you already happen to be on 4.6.3? Don't see many people talking about this.

did you recieve and unlock code from amazon? if so put in an sim card from a different provider. put in the unlock code and you can then flash the unlocked stock rom and be truly unlocked.

Perfect!

First of all thank you so much to ggow for this rom, you made this phone so much better with "real" android. And i think that i now love this phone more than my old iphone 5s :)

Like 1stlynx i'm on german Telekom sim lock too and i cant unlock my phone until 2016 (or i have to pay 100€ for the unlock but naaah :D).

I'm on your last updated ROM from the 27. july and it worked pretty good. Sometimes i got some crashes and the phone to a reboot or a respring... I dont know why but this happens only 1x in a week. Is there a bugreport or a logfile on the phone that i can share to you? And i get some random google service crashes but not so often anymore like in the first ROMs. And i think that something with the bluetooth is broken cause it connects to my JVA car radio, but when i start playing music on the fire phone no music is playing. It plays but no sound came out of my car speakers, i dont know why :D

One more question:

is there any hope in future builds to get this Dynamic Perspective to work again? :D

and is there a app or something like that still out to get the camera button back to work? I mean when i press it that the camera app launches?

Signal

OK guys this whole weak signal has been covered its just cm11 and aosp roms that do this I did a speedtest with lte 1 bar vs lte full signal on a s4 and they have practically the same speeds so its either cm11 shows less signal or Samsung exaggerates the signal than what it actually is just be grateful that we now are rid of amazon os

Also I could never get a mobile signal on stock , I had to sit at my window seat , but now it works throughout the house , totally unscientific I know but my personal observations .

The navigation bar was kinda annoying me since i already got used to the fire os swipe up to back but I managed to fix it using AHSK.

Just wanted to quickly point out something that I didn't realize until a few days ago. The Fire phone (in CM11) has a working step counter sensor which connects flawlessly to Google Fit. I've got my step count automatically syncing with my work wellness program. Additionally, CM has encrypted text messaging built into the ROM in settings => privacy => whispersync.
[Amazon Fire Phone] alexwontlose:
I discovered, restoring the system only works once. I restored fire os for some testing. But cm is better. So I went in recovery to restore cm and it failed to restore the system partition. Then I tried to restore fire os again didn't work too. So restored cm again. And flashed Rom, gapps and su. Now everything is working like before the stupid idea to test fire os :D

Its auto hide soft keys app, you can download a pro apk to customize it so there wont be a red bar at the bottom like in the unpaid version. I forgot where i downloaded it though. and sometimes you have to re launch it when it doesn't show when you swipe up. :) But really makes the home screen look clean like like in the fire os.

I use AHSK to hide the soft keys completely (Under General/Navigation Mode/None(PRO)) and then use the free All In One Gestures (from the GPS) to "swipe back" by assigning the swipe/bottom area to back. I then go to (Edge Preference/Opacity) and set it to 0% to get rid of the "glow" at the bottom of the screen. After this it functions and looks just like the original Fire swipe up. In AIOG I also set (Hard Keys/Home Key/Long Press) to recent apps for added functionality.
