The stock rom and root method I used were via a tutorial by tekify. Which relies on Bin4ry's root script (could this be the cause?) I found that root junkie has a clean stock rom, or so I believe.

I did try a google apk unroot my tablet, but this thing only damaged the files, so I had to do a reinstall. No idea if this could also be part of the issue.

Also, I have a question, say I install a stock rom (7.4.3) without root, will it affect the 2nd bootloader?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Duncan Idaho:
Out of curiosity, is any of them ROMS in Mediafire pre rooted or not?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] awd4416:
Not sure if this was mention on this thread at one point.

I flashed and tested lineage-14.1-20180326-UNOFFICIAL-tate.zip and crDroidAndroid-7.1.2-20180524-tate-v3.8.7.zip after following rootjuky's root videos.

I then spent the whole evening trying to figure out how to get root to work. I finally got root to work by upgrading kfhd7-twrp-2.6.3.1-recovery.img to kfhd7-twrp-2.8.7.0-recovery.img

Found on this other XDA thread https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=71698966&postcount=677

[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Bwangster12:
I'm new to the party, but I see that BT doesn't work? I can turn it on, but it doesn't see my BT headphones. I see the fix is to swap out a file with a stock version of the file?

BCM2076_26MHZ.HCD

Is that the fix? Where can I get this file? Anyone want to share it?

Hi there. Is it possible to flash Widevine drm support into this Lineage 14.1. ROM so I can use apps like zattoo or waipu.tv? Thanks in advance for your answer!
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] mikeataol:
I hadn't heard of that fix

Bluetooth works , but its buggy

turning off the Bluetooth service , exiting back to the settings, turning it on has worked for me .

sometimes I have to turn the paired device off and back on again, too.

it doesn't seem to remember pairing codes, but in general it works after a few tries.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] DamianUzcanga:
Good afternoon, could you explain me how to install the rom? and if you can root it? I have a kindle fire 7 HD (7th Gen) , work for me?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Droidriven:
No, this thread and ROM or for the 1st gen(2012) KFHD7. Anything that says Tate is for the 1st gen only.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] DB126:
Tate is 2nd gen (7"). Otter is 1st gen.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Droidriven:
2012 was the first generation Kindle Fire HD model, I own one, I bought it.

What you're talking about is the Kindle Fire, the non HD model, two entirely different animals.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] DB126:
While 2012 marked the first HD designation it is a 2nd gen Fire device. 1st gen is Otter.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Droidriven:
As I said 1st generation of KF"HD7", otter is 1st gen "fire", being non HD and non 7" excludes it from being counted in generations "of HD7".

You're going on and on about 1st gen and 2nd gen "fire", I'm talking about 1st gen HD7, the HD7 models only(of which, otter is not one of them), not "all generations" of "fire".

Like the first Mustang Cobra was not the first Mustang, but it's definitely the first Cobra, when counting generations of Cobra, the Mustangs cant be counted, only the Mustang Cobras.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] DB126:
Fully aware of the differences. Please use the proper designations when referring to Amazon devices vs your preferred nomenclature.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Nixeus:
Hello guys,

I'm a bit lost, why is there two roms ? What is the better for "day use", more stable with good performances please ? Lineage OS or the CrDroid ?

Thanks a lot,
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Nixeus:
Hello,

I flashed the Lineage OS with the gapps and my Kindle loop on the "boot logo" ( the animate logo with a curve and a circle).

Reflashed the rom, same issue :(

Any information ? I use the twrp 3.0.2-3

Thanks a lot

Edit : Now , unable to enter in TWRP anymore :( Stuck on the boot logo :(

And unable to go in fastboot mode :( . To go in fastboot mode, i have to power+ volume down...right ? and when i'm on the blue Kindle logo, put usb cable, right ? No devices detected :(

Help please :(
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] chocobomoshpit:
I had this exact problem and I literally fixed it today. Unfortunately, you're gonna have to buy a fastboot cable which you can find on Amazon for about ten bucks. Mine was bricked for probably three years because I was too lazy to order the cable but I finally bit the bullet and like, twenty minutes after getting the cable it was up and running again.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Nixeus:
Hello guys,

I need help.

I unbrick my Tate with the fastboot cable and go back to full stock.

I rooted the tate, installed second bootloader and TWRP 3.0.2-3.

I put on the tab :

lineage-14.1-20180326-UNOFFICIAL-tate.zip

open_gapps-arm-7.1-nano-20190504.zip

Flash them by TWRP :

The rom first, and add queue for the open gapps...

Flash is OK, tab reboot...but stuck on lineage OS animation (infinite loop).

Any idea please ?

Thanks a lot !

Hey guys, I am a bit confused with all this Kindle Fire versions...

This one is the right one for this thread?

Thanks in advance for your help
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Droidriven:
This thread is for the first version of Kindle Fire HD 7 that was released in 2012.

What is the model number of your device?

Do a Google search for:

"Device codename for (your specific model number)"

That will tell you which device you have.

Remember, device codename and device model number are the two pieces of information that you need to correctly identify your device.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] mikeataol:
that Amazon page shows an HD 7" with HDMI out port and front camera.

Fairly certain that yes, this is the correct thread for that device.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Pix12:
Lineage is more based off AOSP, CRDroid is a bit more of a mix of multiple ROMs, with a Pixel feel.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Droidriven:
The different ROMs are just different flavors, the main difference between the flavors is they each have their own mix of customizations and tweaks. Most custom ROMs are either AOSP based or LineageOS based.

Lineage is "loosely" based on stock android(AOSP). CRDroid and the ROMs built with a "mix of multiple ROMs" are pretty much all Lineage based with other stuff thrown in from other ROMs. Similar to when CyanogenMod was the base for custom ROMs, ROMs like Liquidsmooth, Candy ROM, Beanstalk and PAC-Man ROM were all CyanogenMod based ROMs.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] softsto:
Is there any way I can research release notes or bug reports to figure out which ROM has the fewest problems on Tate hardware? I don't care what ROM or version I use, but I want to avoid problems with backlight levels, bluetooth, HDMI out, Wifi, etc. Please suggest a nice ROM (with link or path) with excellent stability and hardware support.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] DB126:
Lol. Device is 8+ years old; community ROM development/support/interest ceased years ago. I still have my Tate rocking CM 11 (KitKat 4.4). Solid ROM hobbled by hardware limitations. Especially with TI processor and display drivers. Still fire it up on occasion for a trip down memory lane but the enjoyment is short lived. At one point I researched newer ROMs but quickly realized I was at the Apex. I don't game on my tabs; just use for content consumption. Even that is a struggle on this old boy. Good luck.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] xorgbeep:
I was trying to build Lineage OS 13 just because the cm13 buils were rock solid and video playback was smoother than in Nougat. How many people do you think still use it?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Droidriven:
I'd like to go back to a solid CM11(Villuminati). I've used every Tate ROM that was ever built, nothing ran as well as CM11.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] DB126:
Yep - still rocking CM11 on my healthy Tate. Certainly not a daily driver but gets the job done when called upon.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Droidriven:
Yep, mine is very healthy also and I got mine when they were first released. Haven't had a single issue with the device since day one.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] zarni0:
Hi guys. I flashed cm-13.0-20160218-UNOFFICIAL-tate and it's ok but camera doesn't work and google playstore is not stable.

So looking to flash lineage-14.1-20180326-UNOFFICIAL-tate unless you would recommend something else.

However, now I realize I cannot get into TWRP.

I tried the power+ upvolume. No go. I tried installing fireflash but it says no root. So I install SuperSU. I select "Normal" to install binary.

But it fails. "installation failed! Please reboot and try again"

I thought these roms are rooted by default.

What do I do now?

Please any help appreciated.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] riddell:
I too have a similar problem with the last update. I also can no longer get into TWRP either. :cautious:
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] zarni0:
do you have any plans how to get around this? this one seems somewhat buggy. camera doesn't work at all.

i also thought all these mods are rooted to begin with.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] riddell:
No, I have no plan yet... o_O

This problem is especially difficult because TWRP won't re-install. No, I don't believe the mods are rooted... they only aren't REQUIRED to be rooted to install.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] zarni0:
i really do not understand. for a community that aims to provide freedom in the control of the OS why even distribute this if it's not rooted. i am stunned
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] riddell:
You are free to root it if you want. The best one is Magick root. Remember that your security is lower on a rooted device.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] zarni0:
of course but if you dont root how are you going to change the mod?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] zarni0:
i got into TWRP with no other modifications. You need to press power and UP only after you reboot once i think OR press when you get to the splash screen after Kindle splash. I pressed both times.

Now question is what mod to do as this one was no good.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] zarni0:
unfortunately

lineage-14.1-20180326-UNOFFICIAL-tate

OK guys, I've got a KFHD 7 that I haven't since Beanstalk 4.4+, I've got TWRP 2.7.0.0.

I downloaded Tate CM12.1 and AICP LP along with 5.1 Gapps.

I tried clean flashing CM12.1 and AICP and neither are flashing, I mean not even doing anything in recovery, just hanging as if to flash but not flashing anything no matter how long I let it set and trying with and without wipes is doing nothing.

What am I missing?

Do I need an updated recovery to flash lollipop?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] :
Yes, you need to update twrp to either 2.8.7.0 or 3.0.0-0. Also, this is not an appropriate thread for asking this question.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Droidriven:
Well, I was going for the CM12 thread I got my ROM from but I see it isn't.

Regardless, the answer is the same.

Some little probs with drm an root

Hi, great Rom, so far :)

Here are some problems:

Magine.tv - App says: There is missing a widevine drm library (should be included in cm13).

Google Play Movies - Error that the device is not supported (maybe also widevine DRM library?)

The Airaudio - App says, that it get no root access (root for apps in developer options enabled).

Can you fix this, pls ?

Links to the failing Apps at Google Play Store:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.magine.aliceoid&hl=de

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.airaudio&hl=de

Edit:

Airaudio is now running, after the support adviced me to install Meefik´s Busybox. There was no busybox in this cm13 rom included.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] transi1:
toybox replaced busybox in CM-family.

Root you can enable in dev.op.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Astarioth:
Hi, thanks for your reply :)

What do you think about the widevine - Library ?

It is used in Google Play Movies and other DRM-Protected streaming services and is missing in the rom...

Maybe it is a blob or lib that you can grep out of cm12 ?

Sideloaded rom with twrp 3 & rebooted recovery. Copied opengaps pico 220 build to internal, and installed from twrp. I got force close errors but still was able to get through the startup wizard. After a reboot I seemed to be alright. - Charging right now since it was almost dead.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] monster1612:
I have a hunch that a recent feature introduced into the opengapps zips for Marshmallow may be causing the FCs. Do you mind attaching the opengapps log file it generated? I want to test out that hypothesis. I'll conjure up a fix in the form of a gapps-config file, and I'm going to need some brave testers to verify the fix works. ;)

I flashed 3-27 gapps with NoPreODEX in the config and still got google play store FCs. Here's a log anyway, flashed everything over existing install. Also tried a 3-16 release and same result, so it might be that I can't use the forceclean option anymore.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] monster1612:
Try getting a logcat after running a Google app (or the setup wizard) and getting a FC. I think the FCs in the setup wizard may be occurring because the ROM itself is missing a gapps permission patch (can OP verify that the patch is present?).
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] ipdev:
here is the gapps log.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] monster1612:
Do you get the setup wizard FCs when using an earlier gapps package? Also, are you making sure to flash gapps right after CM without rebooting into system in between?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Droidriven:
I'm having issues with flashing both CM12 and CM 13 on my kfhd7(1st Gen). I haven't flashed anything on it since beanstalk 4.4.4, I updated to TWRP 3.0.0-0 but when I flash the ROMs it doesn't flash, I'm not getting any errors, it just freezes like its not doing anything.

What have I missed along the way in the last year or two of not following development on it that I need to do before flashing? Is there some kind of conversion or partitioning I'm supposed to be doing? I tried wiping system and data before flashing but a clean flash didn't change anything.

I've read through threads but I'm not seeing anything specific.

220 has been my failsafe gapps package. Seems to install on everything.

I have had good luck with newer versions (317-326) on other devices. I haven't gone back beyond it. (220) Seems to work on everything. I'll try an older gapps to see if there is a difference. (tomorrow)

As far as install goes, I have only had success with installing cm, then rebooting into recovery and installing gapps.

If I install them (cm - gapps) together and restart system I get constant fc's. Can't even pull down the system menu bar. (constant fc notifications.)

Edit :

Same fc's with the 0120 gapps.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] bjbirch:

[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] mr.bobharris:
Thanks for cm13.

ROM loads up just fine on its own. Gapps installs, but I get the constant FC's. Tried several versions to no avail, will continue trying more today.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] :
It seems to be a global CM issue starting with builds 3-26 and on (might be fixed now). The problem is also described here. It supposedly only happens with a clean install which would make sense since, unlike most other devices, CM zips for tate have always wiped system before install making a 'dirty flash' impossible (hence why I use 'forceclean' to avoid data wipe nag). Might have to wait for a new build from transi now.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] monster1612:
Similar issue over here on a recent jem build of CM (which was compiled before that CM patch was pushed to repos). I keep getting FCs on the Play Store app. hopefully this patch will resolve the gapps issues once and for all.
