Suspect a larger issue given you are also experiencing problems updating to the latest TWRP build. Work on TWRP first; then come back to this.

---------- Post added at 08:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:35 PM ----------

Edit: strike that; got my wires (and XDA members) crossed! Revised guidance is to update to latest TWRP build then try reinstalling LineageOS/CM 14.1. A full wipe is recommended. Take a nandroid of your existing environment for easy restoration if needed.

Thanks for this ROM, might have to try it out some time :)

that's rather critical information !

Some folks might have run into thermal + speaker issues on the Z5 Premium,

interesting to find something similar here

Thanks

I dont think the audio HAL speaker protection issue is a big deal. It was actually disabled on stock. And so far I haven't been able to get it working at all.

There's another power HAL issue I'm looking into which might help with extended periods of activity (like using the device for bit torrent etc).

SIM-card working on HDX 8.9 LTE?

is the SIM-card supposed to work on Apolo with CM14.1-20161224-NIGHTLY-apollo? I am confused...

For me it is not working. I update from Safestrap CM11 via CM13. Am excited to have Android 7.1 up and running, but unfortunately "No SIM-Card" found.

Skype and kodi hung up. WIFI stopped a few time, but recovered with airplane mode. Bluetoot 3.0 Keyboard fails for a pin issue. A lot of other things are working smooth.

Will the SIM-Card issue be fixed at some point? Or am I doing something wrong?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
The answers to your questions can be found within this thread including both recent posts and the first few entries. In short:

- BT and LTE support are a WIP

- WiFi irregularities are recognized and being investigated

- significant developer challenges with the above due to age and uniqueness of device (not to mention time commitment)

For a little boost... Is our device ready to use f2fs? For data and cache
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Seems a stretch - don't see much activity outside a few devices. Rumor has it TWRP 3.x does not support F2FS posing a reformat challenge for some. Also random claims some apps choke on F2F2; seems far fetched outside system utilities. Personally not willing to risk stability and/or data integrity until more broadly implemented/vetted on Android.

Thank you for clarification! So I understand it is not my configuration and it will be worth waiting for LTE, BT and WiFi. It feels awesome to have Nougat running on this device. Thank you very much for your great work on this!

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] khoacao96:
Thank you! Downloading it right now. How would I go from Fire Nexus to this ROM? Just wipe system, cache, dalvik, data & flash the zip right? Am I missing something important?

Edit: I have read the instructions in the first post, just ask again in case the instructions haven't been updated in a long time. Also to lower the risk of getting bricked :)
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
The preparatory wipes you indicated constitute a clean install and are always recommended for the best outcome when changing ROMs. You can not hard 'brick' a device installing a ROM If the bootloader is unlocked (a prerequisite). Well, assuming flashing instructions are followed. :)

Only one minor rotation bug that I found out: everytime I lock my screen with auto-rotation of both system & Nova Launcher disabled, the screen still shows a stretched rotation for a brief moment before it went to black. Apollo, LineageOS 14.1 (12 Jan 2017)

Installed the Apollo rom today on my hdx 8,9" LTE. It is smooth as butter.

I installed the LineageOS together with mini gapps (tried the trick with playgames, not sure it worked), supersu and dolby atmos.

The install worked fine. It took some time (as usual) to restart after installing, and a couple of apps crashed after the first boot. Nothing fancy. It even recognized the LTE functionality, but it says the device doesn't have a sim card, which isnt correct (it has a very old one, which i dont use anymore). But I know LTE functionalities are still work in progress.

The dolby atmos app flips (but ggow is on that) and supersu 2.79 (i think) works as well. For now everything looks pretty fancy and new. More info maybe later.

Manually downloaded and upgraded from CM christmas build to lineage 20170112 with TWRP. Upgrade went smooth, don't feel any big difference. Wonder if I will recieve auto updates for lineage via the system settings now.

Wifi runs smooth as I deactivated the energy saving option. Bluetooth keyboard showing up but still not connecting, won't accept the pin code.

Haven't tested the SIM card as I understand LTE will still need some time. Looking forward to have this running some day.

AFAIK -- no, not until the LineageOS build infrastructure is in place and the apollo/thor images are built/hosted at the LineageOS infrastructure.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] Hashcode:
Sorry for delays. I had a very busy week at work, so no major changes to the ROM / kernel.

I'll try and get some time tonight / tomorrow to make updates to the devices required by LineageOS for later weeklies / nightlies (once the infrastructure is in place). But no real changes at the moment so I haven't built a new ROM to release. Maybe something this next week when I get more debugging time.

Question, does Thor still "slow charge" and if so, is that anything that might be fixed? I'm noticing my battery life isn't what it used to be, I'm assuming because of the age of the device. Seems to be slow to charge also, but I haven't put it to the test yet
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
'Rapid charging' (not to be confused with Qualcomm Quick Charge) is enabled in the kernel permitting charge rates of up to 1.8A. This obviously works with Stock FireOS and various custom ROMs for this device including all a Nexus 4 varients​ and CM 12.1. I seem to recall it working on CM 13.1 as well.

'Normal charging' defined as rates <1A can prolong battery life depending on the algorithm used to limit curtail charge rates when the battery is discharged and close to capacity. In that regard this devices works very well both through observation of pattern and the excellent longevity I have experienced with my (3) early build Thors which still retain >85% of their original capacity after nearly three years of daily use.

The reduced run times you are observing are likely due to battery age and/or draw rate of the current ROM and app portfolio. I doubt CM 14.1 is a pig in this regard.

Hash or ggow will need to speak to enabling 'rapid charge' in the kernel if not already present.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] pxrave:
I found another little bug

You can't charge the device in powered off status.

No low level Charing you have to boot and charge. Normally this isn't a problem and very usual but if you have lower then 5 percent battery this could be a serious problem
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Looking for confirmation from another HDX user running CM 14.1. This has the potential to be a very serious 'bug' should the device become fully discharged. Power off charging is normally ROM independent; handled by bootloader/kernel.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] pxrave:
It's a kernel problem

And should be easy to integrate...

Tested on 2 Apollo devices
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] therealisttruest:
I did a quick test just now and could not confirm with my Apollo device. Maybe its charging slowly or something. Quick steps I took.

Check battery percentage - 93% then shutdown.

Plugged in with OEM power supply and let it sit for 20 minutes.

Unplug, power back on.

Battery after boot at 97%. So it charges for me but perhaps a bit slowly, not sure.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Thanks. That would be within normal charge rate as battery approaches full capacity.

Not so sure ... might have a HW issue with your device. Try changing USB cables. Sounds crazy but it's amazing how often that fixes connection/charge weirdness.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] therealisttruest:
To further that thesis, I did another quick test using another cable and the charger that came with my Galaxy S7 and it did something unexpected when I plugged it in - it actually booted up the device as soon as I plugged it in. So yes, I think that's correct Davey. I seem to remember using an old cable plugged into a laptop dock that seemed to take forever to charge so can definitely further attest to the fact that different power sources and cables charge and behave differently. That's why I try to only use the original charger with this device whenever possible. Hopefully pxrave can confirm what cable/power source was being used to further rule out issues with the ROM or those devices, though it would surprise me if it were both devices, likely as you stated instead with the cable.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
FYI - for under $10 USD you can get a gizmo like this (many varients) that can quickly isolate problematic cables and chargers. Interestingly, stock chargers/cables included with most devices are no better than non-budget 3rd party offerings. Amazon branded wall warts are consistently solid achieving/exceeding rated capacity without appreciable heating or voltage drops. Included micro-usb cables are another story depending where they were sourced. When tether weirdness occurs one of the first things I check is the cable. Many poorly made cables will refuse to carry more that 1A (all HDX models are capable of drawing up to 1.8A at 5.1V). Others have lousy connectors or internal wiring that disrupt communications and/or charging. If looking for a replacement I've had good luck with 3' Anker cables.

Hey,

i installed your ROM today, so far it works ok. Just my tablet gets hot.

Is that fixed by any nighlty after 16th of December?

thanks

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
This isn't a ROM issue that needs to get "fixed". Most likely a continuously running background process is driving up CPU usage. Use a process manager to track down the culprit(s). Less likely is a weak WiFi signal. All bets are off if you are using device for gaming or have the panel brightness cranked.

Apollo or Thor?

With the talk of "transitional" images -- what should brave souls who have already installed your unofficial LOS builds do? Dirty-flash straight to official or dirty-flash to transitional and then dirty-flash to official?

Should people still on your (official or unofficial) cm14.1 images dirty-flash to transitional and then dirty-flash to official?

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] Hashcode:
This isn't exactly true. There is a small charging check/loop built into the bootloader that makes sure the device has >5% battery prior to booting the OS. Its shown as a black screen with an empty battery + charging symbol (does not animate).

This is not to be confused with the "charger" mode in Android. Identified as an animating battery charging screen. This mode is not supported by any Kindle Fire except the OtterX configuration of the first gen device. It requires support in the bootloader to detect low battery and pass that information into the kernel command line when booting from an off state.

The HDXs are not on the official support list yet. I did the initial updates to support automated builds of LineageOS, but haven't had the time to debug SELinux issues which is required to be enforcing for nightlies / weeklies.

I'll post an update once that has been resolved. There is a dev rumor floating around that a wipe may be needed when switching to official builds due to a change in signatures... not confirmed yet.

Is the bluetooth still terribly glitchy? Also some roms for hdx based on lollipop and above have problems with wifi (when u disable it like airplane mode u have to reboot to get it to come back on) does this have that problem?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Full bluetooth functionality is only available in KitKat based roms (FireOS v4, Fire Nexus HDX and CM 11). WiFi is pretty stable in all the builds with the possible exception of CM 13. Haven't seen the 'reboot to reset WiFi' glitch in quite some time.

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] CocoBun:
Hmm maybe I should give it a shot, I have a gamesir bluetooth gamepad do u think that would work decent without problems?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Both of the primary devs for HDX ROMs are focused exclusively on LOS 14.1. Resolving BT issues is on the to-do list. Can't do much better than that.

Some successes have been reported with each of the four non-KitKat based custom ROMs. Really depends on what type/brand of BT devices are being used. Pairing and visability are the primary issues; once connected things seem stable. Best advise is to give it a whirl with your favorite BT gizmo reading through the relevant threads for user tips/experiences. Based on limited feedback I'd say BT support in CM/LOS 14.1 is the most mature at present (excluding KitKat ROMs).

boot failure with latest lineage os from git

First, thank you for maintaining lineage os for apollo!

I'm trying to find out if the current "snapshot" from the official git repository is in a working state.

In short, I've pulled the cm-14.1 branch, set up the build environment (envsetup.sh, breakfest apollo), extracted the vendor specific files (extract.sh), and compiled a new build (brunch apollo). No error I could see. Now, after flashing (wipe, install zip, clear cash), my device is stuck with the new boot animation. While booting, I can see the device with adb devices as "unothorized", but I can't really debug anything on the device, as adb does not let me connect ("This adb server's $ADB_VENDOR_KEYS is not set").

So I'm trying to figure out if I'm missing anything important in the process or if maybe the current "snapshot" is just not finished and therefore not working.
