Can someone tell me if the speaker quality remains as good as it is on stock Amazon roms, or does it get worse? If so, is there a way to make it as good? I remember my HDX 8.9 having this issue I believe.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] talkslow4me:
so i have Kindle Fire HDX7 (rooted with kingroot), what do i need to do to get Nexus on this contraption?

The guides have been really non descriptive and seems to jump steps
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
OP, guides and this thread are your best resource. Thoughts:

- FlashFire is tool used to install (flash) rom; recommend v0.32

- Kingroot detritus and FlashFire generally don't get along; you will probably have to cut over to SuperSU. SuperTool streamlines conversion.

- Grab the beverage of your choosing and read through this thread. Won't be long before you get the hang of it.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] ggow:
SIM card works here, at least when I had access to such a device. It does take rather a long time to show up. Also on this ROM you need to manually enter the APN details, did you do that?

I'm aware of the limitations of using the 3 additional slots. Use the stock slot only for full functionality.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] Arthasdude:
Just installed this rom the other night. All is well and the rom works great. Couple of remarks:

- After the factory reset in twrp you have to restart the tablet before installing the rom, otherwise you get an error (in my case, running both twrp 2.8.7.0 and 3.0.0.1)

- a lot of apps still flip/turn 180 degrees (which is one of my biggest annoyances)

- L speed mod works. Havent tested it fully but seems to be working just fine.

- Xtrememusic mod does NOT work. After flashing this, you can start over installing the nexus rom, because the screen stays black. Dolby Atmos works (except for the screen turning).

- I have an LTE model and it seems to be working just fine. Though I haven't tested this properly.

All in all, thx a lot Ggow, great work!

ps. have people tried other mods?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] ggow:
For the screen rotation issue, lock your screen in landscape before running the apps in question.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Fixable using App Settings Xposed module. Set orientation to "Normal rotation". Done. Rock solid module; has never misbehaved on multiple HDX builds.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] cwzkevin:
Thanks, OP. I set the APN for t-mobile and it works now!
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] Arthasdude:
Same here, i forgot to set the APN, but now LTE works! Thx czwkevin!

Reently I had lot of google play services crashes in old 4.0.5 rom so I decided to give KTU84Q another chance.

It was running fine 2 days then suddenly google play servivces started crashing.

I happened right afer I disabled notifications for MacroDroid app but I don't think that's the cause :confused:

Now I can't use Chrome or Google App (Search) or Goodle Play Music ('Unfortunately, Chrome has stopped', 'Unfortunately, Google Play services has stopped').

Maps, Gmail and Youtube seem not to be affected.

Wiping cache doesnt help.

Freezing Macrodroid doesnt help.

---

I noticed KTU84Q drains battery faster (wifi web browsing) and shuts down longer, compared to old 4.0.5.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
- have run both roms; no meaningful difference in battery life

- Safestrap (if so which slot)?

- reflashing GAaps will address the crash issue
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] mt12345:
Safestrap, first slot.

Opengapps nano?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
- assume "first slot" means stock slot (not slot #1)

- Open GAaps nano is a good choice; be sure to do a backup first
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] mt12345:
Yes I mean stock slot. Never used other slots.

Flashing opengapps pico didnt help. I got aosp keyboard crashing constantly. Then I wiped system and re-flashed ROM. Play services still crashing but keyboard not.

OK. I disabled google play services, account manager, framework.

No crashes or errors, I can use Chrome, Translate. Amplify Pro works because it just need Play Store to check the licence.

---------- Post added at 08:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:12 PM ----------

Well I see the difference but I think thats because I need one week or two to tweak Amplify.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Are you limiting icing in Amplify; if so there is a known conflict with the latest Google Play Services. Best to not limit icing anyhow as it is not a significant contribute to battery drain (as an aside android wakelocks are poorly understood by most who falsely equate frequency and duration to actual wake time).
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] mt12345:
Indeed icing doesnt eat much cpu time so I never felt the need to limit it. I didnt use tutorial, I was checking Amplify every 3-5 days, gradually limiting wakelocks. Recently I got to the point ' there is nothing left to to limit' so I started to limit the remaining wakelocks on 'safe to limit' list, including icing (in old rom). In new rom, after 2 days I must have limited icing, hence the problems.

Keyboard:

I miss gesture typing and long-press-special-sign.

---------- Post added at 09:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:58 PM ----------

OK disabling google account manager wasnt good idea :silly:
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
I only use Amplify on my mobile to *modestly* (less aggressive than defaults) limit two location service related wakelocks. Wakelocks are poorly understood and in general do not significantly impact power consumption or wake time over an extended period. I do not use Amplify on this device/ROM and have excellent battery life both while active or sleeping. Ditto for my other devices. Just say'in.

Gesture typing is available in the downloadable Google keyboard which is a close cousin of the AOSP keyboard. I also like SwiftKey.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] mt12345:
I dont use location services on tablet so I dont block nlp wakelocks. Amplify is useful if you install some dodgy games or even Whatsapp. On my mobile I dont use Amplify because I disabled google account, I add, update and back up contacts manually, I use Aptoide for installing and updating apps, old version of Maps which works offline without signing in and Macrodroid to control location services (enable location, data, wifi, gps, force update location when launching Maps or Navmii, then turn off location, wifi, data, gps 5min after screen goes off. Alternatively one could keep location on, changing location update rate from 30s (maps launched) to 60 min (screen off).
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] mt12345:
Does 'Show correction suggestions' work for you (google kbd) ?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Sure - if that's what makes you comfortable.

If you are referring to the AOSP pop-up list of suggestions (red underlined word) then there is a known persistent problem with this ROM and its immediate predecessor. The foreground app will reliably FC if a replacement word is selected from the list of suggestions. The only exception is if the misspelled word is then first (and only) word in the active input area (field). The FC occurs regardless of keyboards installed/active...I have tried many.

[MENTION=5749760]ggow[/MENTION] - friendly reminder if this long-standing reproducible bug.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] mt12345:
The words are not showing up in either keyboard. IIRC it was working fine in 4.0.5 (or maybe I simply dont mispell :D )
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Settings -> Language & input -> Spell checker
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] mt12345:
yes 'spell checker' checked as well as 'show correction suggestion'. no words popping up. :(
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Likely something with your highly customized config. Debugging steps involve backing up your current ROM, clean-flashing Fire Nexus and then layering on tweaks until you identify what breaks the AOSP spell checker. You could also do this in a secondary Safestrap slot (WiFi won't work) which keeps the stock slot available for 'real work' when needed. Footnotes:

- be sure to delete the secondary slot when testing is complete

- NEVER restore backups to a different slot (eg: slot 1 -> stock slot); device will brick with no known recovery

Good luck.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] mt12345:
Guess what. Suddenly suggestions started showing up. But now wifi switches off randomly. I think Im going back, again, to old good unsupported and discontinued 4.0.5.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
As previously noted I have been running Fire Nexus ROM for months without incident. The HDX in question is my primary tab often seeing multiple hours of use daily. If 4.0.5 works for you, great. The erratic behavior suggest something amiss in your config with Amplify being a top suspect as symptoms match those associated with aggressive wakelock limiting. Hopefully you made a backup of your previous config.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] ggow:
I have put a fix in place for this, but I still need to build and test it - so coming soon.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Although I thanked this post a more direct response expressing my sincere appreciation seemed appropriate. Nothing more frustrating than loosing a long document due to a simple misfire. Looking forward to this fix when it becomes available.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] ggow:
Which apps in particular should I be testing this on?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
FC is app independent. Anything that presents an input field will do - XDA, email, etc. Keep in mind it must be word 2-n in the input field. Picking a suggested replacement for the first word in the input area (cursor 1,1) works correctly.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] ggow:
Hi Dave, could I send you am PM with a link to the thor ROM, to test?

I wasn't able to get it crash however figure it would be a good idea to get confirmation from you if the issue is gone or not.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Sure - that would be great. I should be able to load/test later today.

Just updated to the new build without any issues. Thanks a lot for your efforts.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] earlgrey_44:
I had been limping along for many months with a rooted HDX Thor (wifi only) on the Amazon fork, for use as an e-mail, surf, and home theater control point device. The install was developing the usual flakiness with erratic wifi and slow app loads.

How great it is to show up here and find that so much progress has been made. I've had the April build in use for most of a week now, with nothing but wonderfulness to report. Flawless wifi, speedy apps, total stability.

Keyboard has been Swiftkey, no issues at all - could not induce the bug reported above.

Best of all, it can be configured very close to my phone!

Thanks much for some excellent work.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] johnmurdoch:
hey folks, im unsure how to proceed with my next steps.

i've installed root via kingroot on stock 4.5.5.1 so far and it works. i disabled ota updates by renaming the ota.apk.

i've installed safestrap v4 app but not the recovery within it till now. i now dont really know if i just need to wipe factory like its said in op or also have to wipe cache, dalvik, data...

its the common way on my old sgs2 so i'm unsure...thought i also have red something in he hdx forum, but also not sure.

directives would be very welcome ;)

thanks in advance
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
- download Nexus ROM and store in root of sdcard folder

- enter safestrap recovery; backup existing FireOS install if desired

- verify you can locate Nexus ROM zip (root of sdcard)

- from wipe menu perform a 'factory reset' (slider at bottom)

- flash ROM from install menu (overwrites FireOS)

- reboot system

Cautions:

- never create or use secondary slots; everything happens in stock slot

- never perform a 'factory reset' from stock recovery menu; instant brick

- always keep a ROM zip in the root of sdcard for emergency recovery

Went from CM13 to this rom 20160525. Everything works and that's all that matters.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Yep - that's why it remains my daily driver despite being several revs back. Just works and plays nice with mods.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] johnmurdoch:
thank you very much for your reply Davey126, will proceed as you said and will keep the cautions in mind.

but i have one last question about the included google apps before flashing.

i want to run my kindle just without them. so can i unzip the FireNexusRom.zip and delete in system/priv-app/ all apk's starting with Google (i.g. GoogleBackupTransport.apk...) and then rezip it for a more or less google- free version of the FireNexusRom?

as alternative app- store i want to use f-droid.

thanks
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Can't speak to that; Nexus assumes a basic GAaps install for core functionality (eg: home button operation). A safer approach would be to uninstall Google components after startup and see what breaks. Or go with one of the other roms that do not have GAaps baked in.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] travanx:
My wifi went berserk when I flashed this rom without gapps.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] johnmurdoch:
ok thanks for your advises, i will istall the full package and see after backing up the new system how i can mess it up ;)

will report after
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Unfortunately problem highlighted above persists in B20160525. Here's what I did to confirm:

- secured separate (spare) unlocked thor

- flashed TWRP 3.0.x

- full wipe - all partitions including internal storage

- rebooted; confirmed only contents of recovery partition remained (kinda scary...)

- MTP B20160505 to device; install via TWRP; reboot system

- connected to WiFi but did not register with Google

- confirmed default language -> English (United States)

- did no further configuration aside from enabling USB debugging and 'install from unknown sources'

- sideloaded XDA Labs via 'adb install <apk>'

- opened editor to create a new post. Keyed "flocker flocker". Clicked hotspot (red underline) on second word. Tapped a suggested replacement. Foreground app (XDA Labs) crashed.

Note the above crash will occur with ANY foreground app using ANY keyboard. It's not about XDA Labs, my Google account or device configuration (app soup) as outlined above. The behavior can be suppressed by disabling the ASOP spell checker but then one looses: 1) visual clues to potentially misspelled words; and 2) access to suggested replacements which often present more relevant choices than any of the mainstream keyboards (Stock, Google, Swiftkey, Swipe, etc).

What additional information can I provide to help isolate/debug? Logcat sent to [MENTION=5749760]ggow[/MENTION] but happy to provide updates as needed. Not a huge issue but can be frustrating as a bumbling mistap can trash work-in-progress with no recovery.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcafowler:
My Fire Stick seems to be bricked. I can reboot into recovery via adb over usb, but it just reboots into Firestarter when I unplug it. I deleted firestarter via adb and that didn't help so I reinstalled it.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bula1ca:
Can you get in FireStart after booting? What happends when you press "FireTv Home" app under FireStarter screen? Not exactly sure what do you mean by booting in recovery, recovery is not available for firestck yet.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcafowler:
Fire TV Home has disappeared from the menu. I'm unable to enter the settings menu either. It automatically boots into firestarter. I typed "adb reboot recovery". That's the menu
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deanr1977:
I think he's not sure what he's talking about? Maybe he thinks ADB is the main menu?

Do you mean the main menu for Amazon? If so press the Fire TV button which is on the firestarter menu in the picture attached to your post. If this is what you mean, go into the firestarter settings & select start up app as Amazon or none! A bricked unit Will just stay on the start up amazon logo at boot Just for reference my friend, if you can access menu's/settings & apps & can install & uninstall apps you are not bricked

EDIT

(You can also look in the firestarter hide section for the fire home)
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcafowler:
I know that adb is not the main menu. I didn't attach that picture. On my screen there is no fire tv icon. Just fire tv settings which doesn't take me anywhere and leaves me stuck on firestarter and my Es file manager. I can enter Es file manager though. Maybe bricked was a poor term but I can't enter the standard Amazon menu because that option has disappeared.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bula1ca:
That is exactly the reason I asked. LOL
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deanr1977:
Ok well just read the reply I put before & you should be good to go again mate, hope this helps
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcafowler:
It's not hidden which is my unfortunate problem. It's just gone
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deanr1977:
Is you're device rooted? Do you have recovery? If so you need to reinstall you're rom which will flash you're system back to a normal state? Have you deleted it? If it's faulty you may wanna contact amazon?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bula1ca:
Dean,

He has a FireStick.....no recovery.

jcaflower,

Unit is booting in the main screen when "adb reboot recovery" is being sent to the unit because stick has no recovery will do the same thing if you send adb reboot.

BTW tell us the whole story on what happened to be able to help you further more:

- rooted or not?

- used Supersu-me after rooting?

- install anything in particular?

- when you deleted FireStarter, what happened?

etc.

Something triggered this issue, did not just happened.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elliwigy:
my thoughts exactly.. it sounds to me he somehow deleted or removed stock launcher..

he mentioned ES, what was he doing prior to it dissappearing is my question.. maybe he can sideload it..
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcafowler:
I side loaded Kodi and Firestarter to the Firestick and it was working fine. I setup the Fire Stick for my mother-in-law and they told me it had stopped working and they were unable to access the Fire TV home portion in order to access Netflix and what not. I hooked up the stick to my TV today and noticed that the Fire TV home icon was gone. I went to the settings and saw it wasn't hidden. I tried to access the Fire TV settings, but it was unresponsive. Whenever I pulled the power it would reboot into Firestarter after the optimizing apps screen passed. I thought Firestarter was the issue so I uninstalled via adbfire through usb. When I uninstall Firestarter it simply stays on the optimizing storage and apps screen. The only things ever installed were Firestarter and Kodi.

Edit: Is there anyway to side load the Fire TV home if it was deleted? I didn't remove it through ES file. I don't know for certain if anyone else messed with it, but I certainly didn't remove it.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deanr1977:
That's what I was thinking too, tomorrow if he pm's me I may when I have time pull the amazon fire apk & settings apk (then resign them) & upload them to media fire for you? Unless someone else would like to do the honours? Don't know if it will work though but glad to help if I can

[X Style (Pure) Android Development] HikingMoose:
I've only briefly looked into multirom. I just don't think a ROM running off external storage would perform well enough for me. I haven't tried it, admittedly. But of a secondary ROM can run off an SD card as smooth as the primary... I'd be into it!
[X Style (Pure) Android Development] jason2678:
You can use your internal storage as long as you have enough free. I've only used my internal.

In fact, I'm not sure external is working yet. I'd have to look back through the multirom thread.
[X Style (Pure) Android Development] pizzlewizzle:
Correct...only internal for now, unless its been fixed or I was doing it wrong.
