Not the greatest bug report I've seen -- what kind of root doesn't work for you?

magisk v10 + PHH's root work very well.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] schr01:
I have iinstalled magisk v10 + PHH's. After that I selected in PHH "root ADB + APP" and root works for the most APP`s, but not for "fireflash".

After a reboot my hdx7 hangs in a bootloop and I must flashed the rom again.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] stangri:
I guess you mean FlashFire -- yeah, it's known not to work with non-Chainfire roots. I use [MENTION=5488402]Davey126[/MENTION] recommended Flashify.

I have the same "Apps and ADB" setting and my apollo reboots just fine. Could it be something else you've done? Like installing incompatible module?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] schr01:
Thank you!

I tried again the reboot and now it`s working, no bootloop. I dont`n know why it did not work at the first time.

New Build is Up

- Dated 26 January 2017

- Fixed Apollo screen off animation orientation (on gerrit here)

- Added support for CM root.

I've been lurking here for a while, reading through posts to make sure I didn't do anything stupid. It made the process of rooting, unlocking the bootloader, and flashing the new rom very easy. So thank you to Hashcode and ggow and all of the other developers, contributors, and posters.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] CocoBun:
Nice :) I got root working by flashing the latest supersu in twrp. But I liked cm root better it was simpler but not as feature filled. I never had any problems with flashify tho

So far the only major issues (imo) is that bluetooth is still funky I have only gotten input devices to work no audio, google play games cannot install, screen rotation is reversed landscape in some apps, and I noticed that the volume for alarm always says 14% and if I turn it all the way down it randomly changes back to 14, is that normal? It's not that much of a problem I just keep it on quiet from quick settings menu.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
- static alarm volume value is a glitch; believe you are the first to report

- BT issues are known; devs are working on it; not an easy fix

- reversed screen rotation common issue on Amazon devices/tablets

- easy to fix above once Xposed framework released for Android 7.x

- sideload Google Play Games (common issue/fix with many custom ROMs)
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] CocoBun:
Oops I just noticed it was ring volume not alarm

It always stays at 14 no matter what I can turn it as low as the slider will go without silencing it but after awhile it reverts back. Not a major issue but annoying sometimes
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Is it relevant, ie: do you have a LTE device?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] CocoBun:
No, but I just thought I should point it out if anybody else has that problem. It's not a big deal for me, I just thought it was strange

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] Anatinae:
I see Hashcode was asking for this. Here is a gapps-config.txt that gives the equivalent of a mini Open GApps installation + Play Games using the full installer. Put this in the same directory as the zip file. I had no trouble with TWRP.

Finally it works! Thank u so much :D
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] stangri:
Thank you! Working great in both portrait and landscape modes on apollo!

One thing is nagging me tho, if the landscape mode is fixed (rotation not allowed), then on boot, right before the switch from LineageOS logo to an android desktop screen I have this weird effect, where left half of the screen stays on animated logo and the right half of the screen shows proper android desktop -- with the wallpaper, system bar, etc. Only lasts a few seconds, but it's weird as hell. If I'm unclear on what's going on I can try to take a video tomorrow.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] ggow:
With the patch I posted on gerrit, the screen off animation doesn't actually run. I haven't looked into it yet. May have to abandon that patch and revisit why this is.

I reproduced the issue you mentioned. Will look into it.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] CocoBun:
It's just that the boot animation lasts longer than it takes for the device to boot when it's finished and u have it in landscape the boot logo will rotate with the lockscreen. The same thing happened with fire nexus rom. It kinda gives it a cheap cheesy feel tho. Something should be done about it like making the animation keep the screen from rotating until it's finished. I like the animation and logo but not that it rotates. Hehe he posted that while I was typing this if I had known that I wouldn't have submitted it

I've been wondering this for awhile now, why does icons from apps like battery bot and sd maid have no color and only show white? Also greenify doesn't show the lines in the leaf. Is it just how nougat handles status bar icons?

Hi all,

I've posted the updated (Android-7.1) TWRP 3.0.2-0 for THOR device in the download section: here

For best results prior to flashing the CM-14.1 ROM: place the device into bootloader mode (power on + volume down) and then use fastboot to flash your recovery partition:

fastboot flash recovery twrp-thor-20161212-android-7.1.img

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] Hashcode:
If you're running the new CM-14.1 builds, don't hesitate to post your experiences / issues / highlights.

Top Priority: Make note of any discrepancies between what's in the OP of this thread and what your personal experience is. I don't want to over sell the functionality of this ROM in any way due to it's Work-in-progress.

The ultimate goal would be to get these going as the "nightly" builds and move the cm-13.0 (once fixed) out to weekly or monthly builds.

Can I flash new TWRP .img file using old installed TWRP 3.0.2.0? It has ability to flash .img files into recovery partition.

FYI, here's what I do to solve the "Play Games" side load issue...

Anytime I update my GApps zip file:

- I download the "full" and "mini" versions of GApps

- Extract the "GApps/playgames-arm.tar.lz" file from the "full" file and add it to the "GApps" folder of the "mini" file.

- Open the installer.sh script in the "mini" file and move the "playgames" line from the full_gapps_list= section into the mini_gapps_list= section

- I use this modified "mini" .zip when flashing CM-14.1 ROMs so that my Play Games install always works.

FYI - I use Flashify. Simple, efficient and reliable. Can also snag from APKMirror.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] stangri:
Never upgraded to a major CM version before, so do I need to wipe user data (will the ZIP do it for me automatically?) or is it safe to dirty flash?

Has anything been changed in the screen orientation (gyro?) driver between cm13 and cm14.1? On cm13 the workaround is to use Xposed module, with Xposed not being available for Nougat yet, what's the solution for screen orientation now?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
For best results I would go for a clean install. I was unable to dirty flash CM 13 or Nexus 6.x from CM 12.1 (all partitions wiped except data); repeatedly hung on boot or shortly after sign-in. Developer indicated this was not unexpected. Guessing same applies with CM 14.1. Definitely want a full backup of your existing environment.

Thanks [MENTION=5488402]Davey126[/MENTION] and kudos to [MENTION=4243514]Hashcode[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5749760]ggow[/MENTION] for making cm-14.1 available for thor and apollo!

Just installed on apollo (thanks for reminding me about flashify [MENTION=5488402]Davey126[/MENTION], I've used it with chainfire's root but once I switched to magisk, flashify stopped working because of some incompatibilities with either magisk or phh's superuser, but everything seems to be working with magisk v9 and latest magisk-ized phh's superuser) by creating a queue in flashify with cm-14.1, nano gapps, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, wipe data and then executing the queue and rebooting.

Everything seems to work (had a few scary moments when some google apps started to crash during TiBu restore), WiFi hasn't given me any troubles yet (knock on wood), SCREEN ORIENTATION works OOB, no Xposed modules needed!

Outstanding work [MENTION=4243514]Hashcode[/MENTION], [MENTION=5749760]ggow[/MENTION], considering the time constraints I couldn't have expected anything even remotely as polished as what you gentlemen delivered.

The only issue (and I'm only posting it since you asked) is some text seems to be missing in the window very close to the end of setup (see attachment).

Just out of curiosity, why are you not using a gapps-config file https://github.com/opengapps/opengapps/wiki/Advanced-Features-and-Options ?

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] Hashcode:
Probably because I had no idea that was possible :)

I think it would be great for the community if you could post a gapps-config file to allow using a larger (Full?) package to install what's in the Mini package + Play Games. IMHO, that's the perfect setup for the space we have on our system partition. Users can install anything else they need from the Play Store.

Shouldn't you "name" that 3.0.2-1?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Not to start a debate but my preferences lean toward nano as it's the smallest package that encompasses all components that can not be obtained from the Play Store. Anything else can be added on demand as needed and potentially migrated to a system app if user space is a concern. Many silent updates and dirty flashes go bad/flakey due to limited free space in the system partition. I realize this make life a tad more difficult for those who enjoy having Google's entire app portfolio both at their fingertips and running in the background. As Roz would say: "watching, always watching ....".
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] sergtot:
The first but old issue for the new TWRP.

New TWRP has the same bug as the previous TWRP 3.0.2.0 had.

I mean inside TWRP backup the file boot.emmc.win permissions are 0600, all other files' permissions are 0664. So, the file boot.emmc.win can't be copied without permissions changed to 0644.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
+1. This is an exceptionally annoying bug that drove me back to TWRP 3.0.0.1 on several HDX devices. My primary driver is a 16 GB model so all backups are immediately copied to another location...except they can't w/o manual intervention. Well - at least full backups.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] preisl:
I created that gapps-config file quite a while ago, basically I took the stock version of gapps and removed all files, which I thought I don't need (Here's a comparison of gapps version and what's included in what "size": https://github.com/opengapps/opengapps/wiki/Package-Comparison). So basically all packages listed in the file are excluded from stock. The items in brackets () should be uninstalled, but I'm not sure, whether that works at all.

The biggest issue with that gapps-config file is to find the proper place to put. Documentation states:

However, that's not as simple as it sounds, since folders in TWRP are different and the Zip file is copied to a temporary location before installation (if I remember correctly).

[MENTION=5488402]Davey126[/MENTION] The reason for me to not use the Nano package was, that some Google apps have "refused" to get installed via Play Store. I think Play Games was one plus there were 2 others (I think I mentioned these in the CM13 thread) ...

Hope that helps someone :)

Cheers,

Martin
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Yep. The three apps you mentioned included Google Play Games, Keep and Maps. 505 errors installing Games from the Play Store is known issue across multiple devices/roms. So yea, other approaches are needed for those who use it. Most snag the apk from APKMirror and call it a day. Once install Google will happily keep it updated.

Maps and Keep have

not

been problematic; most can install from the Play Store, open and use without issue. Self included - but I'm running CM 12.1 on HDX due to a CM 13 compatibility with my specialized messaging app. Hoping that problem does not carry forward to CM 14.1.

Sometime soon I am going to try FlashFire on this device which may address the issue you mentioned using a gaaps-config file with TWRP. Several individuals have had good luck with this approach on the entry level 5th gen Fire which does not support the use of custom recoveries. FlashFire is the only way to install custom ROMs and flash auxiliary packages such as GAaps and Xposed. System space is also limited. In that context gaaps-config works great.

Yeah - that setting can be problematic on some devices. On my Moto G4 (near AOSP MM) 'picture color mode' is located via settings search but can not be found in developer options. Weird. No sign of sRGB on CM 12.1. Thinking it may require kernel support.

Anyone know why I'm unable to download Amazon Prime Video from the play store? I get a message that this app is unavailable in your country even though I'm in the US.

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Same on CM 12.1. Play Store package might be for other countries/regions. In my limited experience must use Amazon Underground to gain access to Prime Video on non FireOS ROMs. At least in the States (Northeast).
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] chin_bone:
Amazon Prime Video is not available in the Play Store. Amazon does not want to pay the 30% commission. It only just showed up on Nvidia Shield as a preinstalled app to bypass the Play Store on that device. Download the Amazon Underground App (amazon.com/underground) and you can download the Amazon Video App from within that.

Any solution in sight for the auto-rotation issues on Thor? I have to use an app to control panel orientation regardless of rom/launcher/soft settings. Seems a key hardware sensor is not being read/respected.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] ggow:
No generic solution available. Amazon saw fit to deviate from the standard hw display orientations which conflicts with the AOSP works. So unfortunately the same applies here as it does other roms. Lock your screen for the correct orientation in landscape for apps that rotate the display contents upside down.

Or, is there another issue that I'm missing?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
In contrast to other HDX ROMs there appears to be no auto-rotation support on Thor. Not just landscape mis-orientation (ie: upside down with some apps) but no auto-rotation period. I can set/lock orientation with various 'helper' apps but the inability to accommodate a 90 degree flip is rather annoying. Believe I have twiddled all the right settings in LinOS, launcher, etc.

Started with a full wipe including internal storage. Device arrived from Amazon with FireOS 13.3.1.0. Updated aboot but did not flash 3.2.3.2 bootloader update due to recent brick reports. Did I miss something? Might try flashing one of the older custom ROMs then coming back to LinOS.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] ggow:
I using the latest linos on thor from the OP and auto rotation seems to work fine.

Updating the aboot.img is not enough. There are dependencies on other partitions.

If coming from 14.3.1.0 then using the bootloader upgrade shouldn't cause you a problem.

Maybe that could be something to try.

Guys, I use AICP at my Thor. And I want to ask you to check one issue in LOS 14.1.

Amazon Underground app has been updated to 8.9.3.200 and stopped to work. It displays black screen and nothing can't be done. As a result, all apps installed from that market ask to log in but that can't be done.

Please check does new version of Amazon Underground works well in LOS 14.1?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Updates (I will add detail as testing progresses [here]):

- flashed Fire Nexus KTU84Q 20161017 after a full wipe; auto rotation functionality returned

- next step is to reflash LinOS 14.1 to see if auto-rotation functionality is retained (later today)

- if unsuccessful will try applying 3.2.3.2 bootloader update (highest installed version of FireOS was 13.3.1.0).
