[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Alle9ne:
After successfully unlocking the bootloader on my Fire HDX 8.9 Apollo I flashed the newest nightly build of CM13 (cm-13.0-20161006-NIGHTLY-apollo) and tested it. Everything was ok (I was able to set up the system with wifi etc.) , then I continued with flashing Gapps and SU and after the reboot I was stucked at the CM boot screen. Switched Kindle off - only boot screen again. Tried everything again (factory reset, flashing CM-Build&Gapps&SU, this time without a test and still stucked with the boot screen logo. TWRP is working fine.

Any suggestions? Thanx!
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
TWRP -> Wipe -> Advanced -> System/Data/Cache/Dalvik. Then reflash everything in one operation before rebooting.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Alle9ne:
Thank you! I think I found a source of my problem: I flashed an (outdated) version of SU (2.46). Which version is recommended (or just try the latest?)
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
You don't need SuperSU with CM13. Just use the native root manager found under developer options. Some have reported WiFi issues with recent SuperSU builds. That said, if you opt to keep it the latest stable build is your best bet.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Alle9ne:
Ok, I think I am one of this persons with Wifi problems after installing the latest SU. What is the best way to remove SU?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
SuperSU (not SU...) has its own uninstaller under settings (within app); works well. If you want 100% assurance wipe system/data in twrp and reflash rom+gaaps.

let's tests
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Deltadroid:
Awesome work! I am excited to get working on this!
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] wizzardsk:
What about performance? I read that Nougat is still slower than Marshmallow.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] edsmat:
not give it to compare, due to rom has its primera recently build now.

but this very fluid
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Dukas:
While initialize I got the annoying "com.android.phone has stopped" and can't get rid of it and continue to work.

Any idea how to overcome it?

Worked like a charm.

Many thanks and Happy New Jewish Year.

Bug: cannot change battery icon, also battery percentage is not visible even when set.

Also some apps are crashing, e.g. link2sd and Email.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] edsmat:
Normal bug of cm 14, this is still freature development
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] wizzardsk:
So it is okay then :) Besides that, the ROM is quite stable and fast, only occasionally reboots.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] adrianoacrr:
A carga de bateria está muito lenta... Descarregando muito rápido tambem....

Muito tempo para recarregar a bateria e muito rápido pra descarregar

You are right, I also noticed that battery charging was quite slow and sometimes was even discharging during usage when charging.

Thank you mery much, Fefifofum!

Downloading now and I will post my first impressions soon!

Thanks for the ROM, nice and smooth.

Some small bugs not reported :

- sound recorder FC when opened.

- settings -> wireless -> more FC
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] GXGOW:
Can't seem to be able to add my Google account after flashing stock Gapps from opengapps (with a few edits in the gapps-config). Google Play Services just keeps crashing when I try to add an account, in the setup and in settings. Any ideas?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Deltadroid:
Have you tried the gapps I posted?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] edsmat:
try, flash rom, reboot after flash gapps and reboot
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Deltadroid:
It is recommended to flash rom then base gapps before booting into the system.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] GXGOW:
Delta's solution worked, I don't have any problems with those Gapps for some reason. Oh well, it's working! Thanks for the help!

---------- Post added at 08:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:58 PM ----------

So far no crashed (yet). I did notice that this ROM does not support exFAT, so for people using SD cards, make sure it is formatted in FAT32. You won't be able to use it if it isn't.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Deltadroid:
I believe this has something to do with Google's new package signature verification routine in nougat. The package signatures in the Google play services provided by opengapps will not pass Google's new signature verification routine. The package signatures for Google play services in the nougat base gapps package that I posted will pass the new verification routine.

It may be up to the Rom developer to disable this new package security feature, but knowing [MENTION=4517918]fefifofum[/MENTION], we want to keep this ROM as secure as possible and not try to disable any new security features that nougat provides.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] ThunderBolt_BR:
No issues with Deltadroid's Gapps. Rom is very smooth and stable: I haven't had any force close yet. Thank you again Fefifofum!

[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] GXGOW:
None of the apps I'm using are able to write to the SD Card apparently. Play Music crashes when I try to select it and doesn't even detect it anymore afterwards. Pocket gets an error message, saying that the storage is unavailable and that I need to check if my device is connected with a pc, which it obviously isn't. However, I am able to restore apps from there with Titanium Backup.

Is this a know issue with the ROM or is it an SD Card issue?

I'll provide a logcat once I get home
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Gmobilize:
Big thanks to the dev, for making this available in such short time, really nice to have Android 7.0 on my old Gpad 8.3 with most things working.

Btw i noticed that CM statusbar settings dont seem to be working, thats for the bugs, but i guess functionality first and then features :P
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] ThunderBolt_BR:
Es file explorer can write in external SD just fine.

I moved a lot of media files to and from it.

Not MAPS.ME. I have all the maps on SD and now MAPS.ME does not allow me to use SD card as maps location.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Fenomeno-:
Does this rom play video's @ full hd, 60 fps? Do you encounter problems when the video is playing from the SD card?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] GXGOW:
I've worked around the problem by formatting my SD card as internal storage. Now those apps are able to work with it without issues. I did not experience any dismounts, by the way, which is quite a wonderful surprise. Apart from that, I'm also surprised this ROM is as stable as it is now. You've done a wonderful job already, [MENTION=4517918]fefifofum[/MENTION]. Normally I would donate to developers like you to show my appreciation for their work, but it doesn't look like you're accepting any (or I'm blind again :p).

Anyway, thanks again for keeping this wonderful device alive for another year!
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] juniorhxcx:
Very thanks for is Rom!
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Cal:
Just installed and so far, all looking good. Using Deltandroid's gpps, KitCat bootloader.

Deleted the system/priv-app/TeleServicePress per Fefifofum's instructions by mounting & deleting. (Impossible to do a thing before deleting with TWRP). Still using a no-name cheap SD 8Gb for external storage....all good so far.

Only see one quirk and that's the battery icon will not show 'Text', only percent.

Great work for an initial first run! Thanks Fefifofum!

EDIT: Will show text on battery with quick pull-down task bar.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Cal:
Had one hard hang this morning which occurred when I left the tablet still charging from overnight and attempted to 'wake it' with the charge cord still plugged in. I had to do a hard reset, as It showed the task bar, but I couldn't pull it down. Just the machine just froze up tight.

Will try that again and then report. Maybe there is an option in Developer options about charging...have not read all fine things yet. If it does it continuously I'll do a logcat and post.

Didn't have to re-flash anything...just a cold reboot and all seems to be working OK now. Put it to sleep and have waked it up...but no charging needed yet. So will see...

Excellent battery usage. Very little usage of battery when sleeping. Much better than 6.01. All looking good.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] GXGOW:
By the way, if people want to use OpenGapps, make sure to exclude Google's Webview in your gapps-config.txt. That's what caused the Google Services fc's during the initial setup.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Gmobilize:
Mini open gapps seem to work just fine. With deleting the telephony file of course.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] juniorhxcx:
Good Morning! Can I upgrade over the CM13?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Cal:
No. Formatting system, data, & all caches is necessary. Best to follow fefofifum's install instructions to the note. This is not a simple install, but if done correctly this ROM seems very stable.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Gmobilize:
Actually i just did a factory reset and flashed normallky, no problems so far, except the known bugs.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Cal:
I thought there would be a lot of activity on this thread, but guess the ROM is perfect? <lol>

So, one comment...all seems very finished to me. One thing that's not working is the apk 'Andy log'. Other similar apps are working. Or use terminal for logcat, but hasn't been needed here. No bugs with what I do. :)
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] ThunderBolt_BR:
Yeah, the ROM is amazingly stable for the state of CM14. Been running it since day one and I haven't faced any reboot or force close yet.

As always, Fefifofum has done an amazing job.

[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] drnix:
Runs very nicely on my gPad too! Thanks a ton for this ROM!

Haven't noticed any bad bugs yet. I do notice some minors ones though; such as the "back-arrow" in the topleft corner not working in the settings etc. But other than that, it's pretty much buttery smooth. Android 7.0 feels good.

I am however increasingly craving for more customizations.... hoping updates to cm14 and cm14 for gpad will introduce more customizations options in the settings. That, or Xposed for Android 7.0 would be amazing -- but I guess that won't happen any time soon :{
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] GXGOW:
Patience, my friend. This is only the first CM14 build for this device. Features will be added back over time, don't worry.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] stealthdave:
I'm having issues with root access. It is enabled in Developer Settings, but Helium Backup cannot get root access. I get a message saying "Checking Superuser..." with an activity spinner, but the prompt to allow root access never appears. I was able to get Titanium Backup to get root access, but it can't read all folders on the system despite having root. The latter may be an issue with TB, but I was able to give Helium app root access on CM13.

Thanks!

[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] JunpeiManaka:
First of all thanks for the nice build.

Very few issues found so far. UI is smooth and gmaing works too.

Only dealbreaking issue i have is, video playback stutters like hell. I tried MX Player, Mobo Player and BS Player. The files i have are all mkv or minimkv with at least 720p. None of them work at a pleaasurable level.

Went back to MM, because watching movies is somewhat important to me, but im gonna keep watchting the thread and hope i can fully move to N.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Cal:
Does anyone have this "Automatic System Updates" engaged in Developer Options"? I do, and noted one modification that I know wasn't there before. Anyone noticed the option and used it?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] tewje:
Weird. I don't have any problems with video playback. Everything (MKV and AVI) plays smoothly. I use the MX Player Pro.

Anyway, i wanted to thank you fefifofum for your hard work! :)
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] JunpeiManaka:
Shall i upload one of the files, where i had those issues, to gdrive, so you can test?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] tewje:
@ icheeist

Sure! I'll try. Give me a link.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] fefifofum:
New build released

with dex preoptimization disabled to fix com.android.phone fc. That means slower boot times after wipe dalvik (or data). Still some features missing, but it's getting quite stable.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Cal:
It is definitely slower to boot after installing the latest ROM. Hope there was a slight change in coding in this newest rom, as the 'fix' for the fc was fine on my end...but would be helpful for new installs to not have to delete a folder after installing which can be tricky to some.

All still good here and thanks to fefofifum! Maybe now will bring more installs!
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] drnix:
Latest ROM includes something referred to as "blur effect". I've been looking around for a setting for that for a while now, but I can't for the life of me figure out what and where it is..? There was something inside security > lock screen settings, but enabling/disabling it made no difference at all. What am I doing wrong?

@ icheeist

I have no problems with playing this file. Everything works smoothly. Maybe problem is with a dirty flash or restore settings with TB. Or somethig...
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] JunpeiManaka:
I did a clean flash and set up the tab as new device on first boot. I can only get like 10 fps on playback

I will flash again tonight and report back
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] drnix:
Has anyone got the Blur Effect to work? I really want to use it, but can't make it work :( Is there something extra I need to install to get it working? ie a particular cm theme or something?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] fefifofum:
New build released

with dex preoptimization enabled again, updated widevine & adreno blobs, and fixed bootanimation jerkiness. Blur effect is still being worked on, so we have to wait until it works properly. And there won't be ota updates for now, manual installation is required.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] guessuser:
Is there a way to make this ROM "wifi only" mode? I mean the v500 has no telephony capabilities, so it would make it much faster if there was a way to completely remove all the cellular stuff. Many thanks to fefifofum for this ROM
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] wizzardsk:
I noticed some issues in QuickPic since 1002 build. It seems like it has some problem with cache, like the thumbs are not saved correctly and it always have to recreate them.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] stealthdave:
I'm getting excellent battery life and my video playback is good, but I'm getting pronounced stuttering when scrolling in apps. It's most noticeable in XDA Labs, but also very noticeable in the Play Store, Chrome and Palabre (a feed reader app). Not sure if log cats would be useful here, so let me know if you would like me to provide them.

Thank you again for keeping our devices viable! :D

[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Salych:
Is it possible to watch 60fps YouTube videos in this ROM?
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] GXGOW:
Only at 720p. 1080p60 does not work.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] drnix:
Has anyone here tried the AOSP Android Nougat 7.0 rom? I wonder how these two compare. Ie which is more stable, fast/smooth, and also how they feature-wise compare. Is there a difference at all at this point? :p

---------- Post added at 09:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:28 AM ----------

Woa. Going from 2016-10-15 to 2016-10-17 seems to have introduced some problems for me. Ie first boot I couldn't get past the lock screen because it froze everytime I swiped the correct pattern.

On second boot that seemed fixed, but now the brightness slider does absolutely nothing :/ (edit: on close inspection, it actually adjust the brightness barely enough to be noticeable by the human eye. Everything is searingly bright all the time now :(

I did however "dirty flash" it. Its possible that a clean flash would not introduce those bugs - who knows? But I really don't want to gg through all this all hassle of wiping my entire device daily; having to configure my gpad all over again :rolleyes: Please tell me I don't have to do a full factory reset... :(
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] sysak:
Potentially you've missed this step mate.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] drnix:
Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately i didn't forget that.

But in other news: after putting my pad away for a while, suddenly the brightness slider was working again when i picked it up :D its really weird though. Its probably gonna come and go
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Cal:
Let your pad rest a bit more and it might work. Otherwise, I think your pad has seen it's best days. Just completely start fresh...format *all* completely then install again from scratch and see what happens. If it fails again...put it away for good. Just trying sarcastically to make a point. These devices don't last forever. Good luck!

yep.

same things.

however rom seems to already be at a very good level.

boot time is shorter than marshmallow, overall it seems to be maybe a bit faster and smoother.

yeah, still some options of customization need to be fixed (for example the ones for status bar, a part clock position, nothing else works), but i'm very happy of having nougat on this tablet.

although.. this landscape problem could push me to marshmallow.. (a tablet without landscape mode is a bit useless XD)

however thanks dev for your great work
