A fix for those people who are having problems writing to the microSD Card (as mentioned above). Put the card in a PC and right click on it. "Rename" it or go into properties and "Label" it. On one card I had to format "exFat" & label it.

[Lenovo A850] elitezenithweb:
Sorry, I know that this isn't the place for a A358t, but I didn't find a forum/thread dedicated to this device, so I went to the closest thing.

I have several problems with this phone that I can't seem to figure out.

First of all, it got 4 stubborn applications that wants to run... always. They are: engriks, engrils, Adobe Air and pro.

Engriks and engrils I can delete through the app manager, and 'pro' I can disable... which would work for me (would've being better if I could delete pro as well) but after a phone restart (or after sometime) [with internet/wi-fi] they reappear as working applications. Google didn't yield any results. I would like to get these apps deleted/removed or at least disabled so they don't run.

I've disabled Adobe Air but it keeps enabling itself for some reason... and then after some time starts crashing and closing almost every 5 minutes... so I disable it again and after some time it re-enables itself and the cycle continues.

There are 2 other apps that I can't Force Stop or disable at all (System Apps)... they are labled completely in Chinese, so I can't say what they are, what they do or anything about them... but I'm pretty sure it's just other crap that the phone can do with out.

I've tried to flash the phone to a different ROM (just reflash it to the original stock ROM as this one I think is compromised) but the SP Flash Tool doesn't seem to work on this MediaTek device... I've being battling drivers, apps, cords and just about everything today with this phone with nothing to show for it.

The problem with this phone is that it constantly crashes, bottlenecks, freezes, throws constant errors, app crashes/closes...

I managed to factory reset (recovery was in complete Chinese.... I don't know a gram of Chinese) and the first thing I see after setting up the phone is that the app Adobe Air crashed and needs to close...

If I could get any help with this I would greatly appreciate it... thanks in advance!

Root the phone and remove the apps from your phone completely :)

[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
Bugs

1/ Aosp keyboard crashes, "FIXED"

2/ boot animation a little borked on part1, "FIXED"

3/ slim launcher has no app drawer icon set by default. just long press home screen, widgets, slim launcher and add a shortcut "All Apps"

4/ screen rotation has some graphical glitch.

5/ Laggy (maybe just our poor kindles can't cope :) )

6/ Initial boot causes bootloop (just reboot after a couple of minutes and all will be fine).

let me know when you find more bugs, some are inherited from the slim source as they are only just bringing M up.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
Tips

1/ set all 3 animation settings in dev/settings to off.

2/ using a kernel tool ie, "kernel Auditor" set io scheduler to deadline and read ahead to 256kb.

3/ goto settings/apps and make sure permissions are checked for playstore etc

4/ leave it alone while it downloads apps as it nearly stops :) once everything is installed and setup, reboot and then leave alone again for a couple of minutes. "the wait is worth avoiding frustration :)".

5/ Layers works, so full theming is sweet. dl the layers manager app from playstore, "i love Jimmy's magpie theme" (dont forget to checkout the about section :) and package name)

ENJOY :D

Interesting. Thanks for letting me know! :good:
[Kindle Fire Android Development] t3chwizard:
Are you saying we need to have at least the 2.04 bootloader or use that exact one?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
at least that one, is there a newer one?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] t3chwizard:
There is 2.05 which is discussed in the link you posted. Did u make a typo?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
yes I think so ?? I'll have to check when I'm home, at work atm but back soon. thanks for the heads up.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
ok i changed it to 2.05 in op. thanks again
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
new gapps are up on dankomans afh. just testing new build with zero gapps

edit:

boot animation fixed and swapped to M's

edit 2:

missing keyboard fixed.

but messed up a bit ? np though as I see where I went wrong
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pfederighi:
Woot! Thank you [MENTION=4410674]lovejoy777[/MENTION] for your continued development effort.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] shiz0id:
could this rom be modified to work with the Amazon Fire 5th Gen?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sd_shadow:
probably, but why ask here, these two devices are years apart.

ask the devs working on slim LP for Fire 2015.

in general devs only build roms for device they own.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
no its a different device completely, but it could be built from source if someone updates your device and kernel repos. its very slow with many bugs too at the minute. I've only just got it booting? but working through them one by one. interesting that a 5th gen wants a 1st gen rom ? woot!!! do you not have M yet?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] shiz0id:
We only have two roms to choose from here, both based on LP, Doze is really the only reason I want M, as the Fire has only about 2-2.5 hours of SoT
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sd_shadow:
Fire (KFFOWI /Ford) 2015 Development is going well, imo

Released 30th Sept, got root 1st Nov, Temp boot Twrp 6th Nov, CM12.1 15th Nov, and Slim LP Today (24th Nov).

Bootloader is still locked, no safestrap, Twrp can only be temp booted (fastboot.exe), no custom kernels

Cm12.1 is working good.

Not bad for a $50 tablet.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Evilmonstertruck:
How does it run? The slimrom I have on there now will only work somewhat ok when I make the min CPU 1ghz
[Kindle Fire Android Development] :
LJ said that it works better. Why dont you try it out?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] t3chwizard:
ROM works really well, but the only annoyance rn is the keyboard issue. I went back to the CM10.2 OtterX ROM for now.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
keyboard issue is gapps problem, I have an amended gapps package. ill upload when I'm home
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
new gapps which sorts keyboard error out. Link: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982087005160
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
basically the gapps by dankoman swaps 2 AOSP keyboard libs for swipe which causes the issue. all I've done is removed those libs so not sure if swipe will work, but at least we don't get the f/c's anymore. the new build I have fixed some issues but they cause some EGL problems and makes it even slower overall, so i won't be releasing it until I get it sorted. I'm going on holiday on Wednesday for 3 weeks so after Tuesday night I won't be able to do any development until my return ? hopefully I'll get things a little more stable before I go, but no promises ?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sabres032:
Enjoy the holiday, [MENTION=4410674]lovejoy777[/MENTION].
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
new build building which (if it finishes) should be good, fingers crossed ?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] dokie80:
Happy holiday...

Will Never thought that gapps can caused the keyboard issue.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
I knew as without gapps keyboard works ?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] netreign:

[Kindle Fire Android Development] netreign:
edit: its done.... but Which ver. of supersu should I use, because with 2.52 i haven't root
[Kindle Fire Android Development] anmolkakkar:
I have followed each and every step of the OP

But the Kindle seems to be stuck at Slim logo at its first boot. Kept for 25 minutes and still nothing. :'(

Anything missed out here?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sd_shadow:
have you installed an OtterX ROM before?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] anmolkakkar:
Have installed HellFire ROMs before when it was normal Kindle.

But today, took the step of moving to OtterX.

First ROM flash after conversion.

Edit: Wiped EVERYTHING AGAIN twice. Flashed the ROM and GApps again and it worked.

:)

Enjoying the first look.

Great Work.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
no need for su as it's built in by slim atm. not sure how yet because it doesn't ask you for confirmation etc. but if you try anything root related it should work
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bullet25:
If root is there, it doesn't seem to be working for me either, and I can't find where to enable it. tried lashing supersu 2.46 bootloops the device, 2.56 boot but says binary isn't installed and apps still don't have root access.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
mmmm I'll take soon later
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bullet25:
The rom also seems to be ungodly laggy with your gapps package installed. Without it installed it runs smoothly, netflix and amazon video don't play, hulu starts playing and you can hear the sound but theres a empty error box on the screen with an empty grey box inside it, clicking the box crashes the app. I'll definitely come back to this build when the bugs are more worked out.

I am happy to see people are still developing for this device.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
ok guys, new build uploading and being tested. looks better though ? also I've made zero gapps compatible with otterx.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
I have root here

[emoji7] [emoji7]
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
still has some serious lag going on, mostly when dling apps and trying to do something else (it almost stops at ?) better than the 1st release imo.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] Hashbang173:

[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
drm?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Guitarman:
Nice job with the second release. After getting a couple essential apps from Google Play, I froze the Playstore, Google services and the Google framework to make the ROM run much faster. Would you recommend enabling KSM with SlimMarsh or is it too taxing on the system? I'll test out these ROMs but I always have my full backup of Slimkat on hand when I want a stable and fast daily driver.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ciscogee:
Ran OK for the first 24 hours, kinda slow but figured for an alpha. Then after awhile randomly rebooted and was stuck on slim boot screen. So I powered off and tried to boot into twrp but now twrp bootloops and tried to refash recovery via fastboot (says it flashed) and still twrp bootloop :/

Anyone else have issues?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
that sounds strange. recovery is separate from the rom. what version of twrp have you been using? what bootloader version? you may have borked partitions or something, I suggest you get hold of the mighty sdshadow he knows all about that stuff ?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ciscogee:
yeah seems to be partitions giving me troubles. still in bootloop. glad to see its not your rom :) using BL2.05/TWRP2.7.10
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sd_shadow:
2.7.1.0 has been stable for me, but it's possible, that it isn't play well with Marshmallow, or it's just a partitions issue.

Did you verify partition sizes and file system with what I posted in my thread?

[How To] Fix Otter X Install Errors, Partition sizes, Unable to Mount System...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
New test build running nice. Only video playback to sort now. Lag is so much better on this build although still slows a lot when downloading anything.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
think I found the issue, just compiling, last night on it as I fly tomorrow. woop woop

edit: unfortunatly it didnt work for video fix. ive posted the new build in op.

if coming from previous slimMarsh build then just wipe system, cache and dalvik then flash rom and gapps.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Guitarman:

[Kindle Fire Android Development] t3chwizard:
Where you headed?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
Thailand.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] ciscogee:
Yes I did. My partitions are off I've tried it all multiple times. Data is always 80mb short. Always 5800 not 5880
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Hashbang173:
So I found a few kernel commits that seem to fix many issues.

They seem to fix gapps related force-closes and video playback. I can confirm Netflix and YouTube working.

I don't have slim source synced at the moment, but I made a CyanogenMod 13 (Android 6.0.1) build if anyone wants to try it out.

Install instructions:

wipe data, cache, dalvik-cache, and system

flash ROM

flash Gapps

boot

let sit for 5-10 minutes

reboot (first boot after data wipe currently doesn't have WiFi working)

setup and enjoy!

ROM download

I got involved with Linux and modding technology at a very young age. When most kids were out having fun and doing stupid things, I was inside messing with Kubuntu or Puppy Linux or whatever I could get my hands on.

Not sure if anyone got back to you with feedback on your CM13 builds, but the 12/28 build works really well. The bluetooth doesn't work and I had to update the CPU governor to "performance" because otherwise the device lagged too much, but other than that it's been surprisingly stable and serviceable. Thanks a ton.

The Kindle Fire isn't capable of bluetooth so that's why bluetooth doesn't work. Thanks for the feedback, I plan to have another build with more fixes soon.

Yeah, cm-13 runs surprisingly well now on otterx.

SELinux needs some work for M before we can get it back in enforcing. I plan on doing a SEPolicy bringup for M in the near future.

Once that is done, maybe I'll stop hijacking this thread and make my own cm-13 thread.
