Camera works fine as usual in moderate se linux
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] CocoBun:
I meant the system camera app, it doesn't work like snap camera did. This one just fails and says can't connect to the camera. I don't like being in pictures or taking them but still I like for everything to function correctly. Maybe switch back to snap or find a way to fix this apps' problem. Also I just noticed the cyanogen file manager is gone :( I liked it, nothing will ever be better than mixplorer or es tho

IDK - not fond of Open Camera?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] CocoBun:
I think it's a good open source camera app but like I said I don't like taking/being in pictures, so I wouldn't go out of the way to download a camera app only to never use it. Maybe if I had to take pictures as a reference or a project I would but not of myself, but I definitely wouldn't use a tablet (especially one with only a front camera) phones have better picture quality than most actual cameras now
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
If I understand correctly your request is to 'fix' the stock camera app even though you have no personal interest in using it. My take is the vast majority of HDX users are ambivalent to the low grade camera(s) on this device and will snag an app if/when needed.

Would hate to see the resource constrained development team spend time on this fringe issue only to leave something else on the table.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] CocoBun:
But uh all u would have to do is use the snap camera app like what was changed in the last build by ggow that was one of the reasons that build was put out. It just so happens that instead of just changing the security patch to the 5ths in this one the camera app was changed back and for some odd reason the auto rotate icon in the status bar alternates between portrait and landscape icon even tho I always have it set locked in landscape. And when rebooting from recovery it enters safe mode. So u could make snap a change in the next build. I dunno man imo I don't particularly like this build. When I mentioned ggow I was talking about the one from feb 22nd

Oh no :( trying to install the latest update of fire emblem (version 1.1.1) by sideloading says the app is incompatible with this tablet. Edit: Nevermind it was just the apk file I used, I found one that works: [url]https://www.xyzarena.com/download-fire-emblem-heroes-apk-android-latest-version.html[/URL] Is it ok that I post these? I think it can be helpful to people that want to play the game but can't cuz of play store. Btw to fix the error remember to delete the fire deviceAccount:.xml from the apps' data/data folder com.nintendo.zaba to get back into the game

Not a technical violation provided both site and download (apk/app) are legit, publicly accessible and do not violate author/host EUA. That said, a new thread may be more appropriate for interest based content (I could care less about games for this device).
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] CocoBun:
Well I guess I could create one but I don't know if it's just this one rom cuz it's nougat or if it's the device. So I'll just post in here, plus I doubt nintendo would update the app enough to make it necessary for a separate thread. If anyone tells me I should stop then I will but I just think it will be helpful. A lot of people are interested in this game because it's the only game (not app like miitomo) by nintendo on android next will be mario and a game based on animal crossing. Personally I just like fire emblem...
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] ggow:
- Are you saying that Snap Camera is not included in my latest build?

- Snap Camera is in my build, it seems that there is an issue taking a picture which in turn is going to be an issue with an upstream Lineage. I'm looking into this.

- Not seeing any issue at all with landscape or portrait rotation when locked etc

- Can you ensure you are running my latest build, by looking in the settings page and verifying?

- Just for clarity which device have you got?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] CocoBun:
Thor and the one posted by AndyYan. The icon thing isn't happening any more after I disabled the icon in the status bar settings and re-enabled it. The most obvious differences from this one and yours u posted on feb 22 is that file manager app is gone and in its place is the documentsui file app also download app is no longer there as a shortcut. Snap camera isn't installed and in its place is com.android.camera2. And rebooting from recovery goes into safe mode. I haven't tried rebooting from recovery lately but I will after posting this. Was this discriptive enough?

---------- Post added at 11:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:39 PM ----------

Safe mode thing isn't happening again but it seems the icon problem happens only after powering on but it's no big deal all it takes is just disabling the auto rotate lock and changing from portrait to landscape and back and locking it again. I just think it looks weird having an icon saying it's portrait in the status bar but in the quick settings icon says landscape.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] ggow:
- It's not about been descriptive enough! You are not running the latest build linked from the OP.

- I cannot provide support for another person's build

- [MENTION=4467696]AndyYan[/MENTION], I would prefer if other people didn't post their builds on this thread as it creates these kind of support issue. It's preferable instead to open your own thread and post them there.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] CocoBun:
Well he said he was posting in ur place... should I change back? Or wait till u upload a build with the march 5th security patch? Also would u change the model in the build prop to KFHDX so amazon apps work properly, I haven't noticed anything negative from it.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] ggow:
I have already posted a build which includes the March security patches. Look at the links to builds in the OP.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] CocoBun:
Oh that other user's post threw me off thanks :) U should consider that model change to KFHDX so people wouldn't have to do it manually and Amazon stuff will work on first try instead of people asking around how to fix it
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] ggow:
No worries, I'll try it out the change to the build.prop, if it works ok I'll include it in the next build.

I've test that on this new version (8 Mar) and it's the same, the camera is pretty darker than CM13's, so I come back to CM because I must use Skype with the Kindle HDX!

I've come across this problem before on my Apollo, and it just magically fixes itself. Sometimes the reboot does affects the device in some ways.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] Koile:
stupid question: is it right that OTA-updates of lineage are not working or is it just my fault/mine device's fault?

(I got an Apollo, btw)
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
No OTA updates at present, only periodic builds. Check OP for latest.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] Stickman89:
Mine is exactly the same using this build, I actually cannot see myself in a lit room at all. If I point the front facing camera at a light source i.e. a lightbulb, then I can see the lightbulb and lampshade.

However everything around it in a short radius quickly returns to darkness, and I mean literally. See attatched image (my entire room is well lit).

No amount of manual configuration to contrast, backlight, exposure, white balance... etc etc amounts to notable improvements to the 'darkness' situation. Actually none really appear to do much at all; although it could be hard to perceive with the aforementioned issue.

Also I'm actually unable to take pictures, this could well be a known bug, but incase it isn't; I have attached a logcat of the anomaly.

Basically I take a shot, and am confronted with a 'unknown error, closing camera' prompt - this is where the app force closes and at times the camera viewfinder can remain frozen and partially drawn over homescreen. No image is physically stored on device after the fact.

Anyhow; this doesn't hugely bother me. I have no real need to use it. In the meantime I am more than happy to provide anything that will aid development.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] gatoh:
So I am not alone with this "bug"! I hope that would be fix soon, because Lineage works pretty well!

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] Stickman89:
Well, within my provided logcat the following is spammed enough times throughout the use of the camera app:

AMZ-mm-camera-sensor: sensor_apply_exposure:670 failed

The clues, they hide in the pudding.

Briefly glanced over our kernel source tree and see 'CFG_SET_EXPOSURE_COMPENSATION' defined at the following locations:

drivers\media\platform\msm\camera_v2\sensor\hi256.c

drivers\media\platform\msm\camera_v2\sensor\sp1628.c

* drivers\media\platform\msm\camera_v2_amz\sensor\hi256.c

include\media\msm_camera.h

include\media\msm_cam_sensor.h

* include\media\msm_cam_sensor_amz.h

Also to note there is some information online in regards to camera debugging referencing 'sensor_apply_exposure()' function within sensor.c. (http://prog3.com/sbdm/blog/qq_20678703/article/details/49074955).

Most of what I've scarcely referred to above is probably well established already; perhaps even old news. So for the unaware; Any errors/bugs will be due to our incomplete/wip Camera HAL. Where present bugs and such... Is undoubtedly already acknowledged by Hashcode and co.

Need to distinguish between (screen) casting and streaming. The latter is known to work with supported apps; the former can be fussy and difficult to get working.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] pxrave:
Here we go for some examples...

The camera is to dark or to bright... This is a known issue... Not a new build bug...

For all again.. If you want to take pictures you need to setup your se Linux to moderate...otherwise you will get errors like can't connect to camera... Reboot doesn't help only my solution..

Look at the pictures... But this tablet is not done as a foto shooter. Use another device ;)

Just got a refurbed HDX 7 off of eBay to replace an original Nexus 7. Installed latest build. Excellent job, super impressed. Besides some of the stated bugs, I'm seeing something odd when using the Nexus 7 charger.

If I use the Nexus 7 charger then the HDX will only charge to 83%. But if I switch to the generic charger that came with the HDX then it will reach the full 100%. Any ideas what is happening here?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
HDX kernel supports rapid charging (not to be confused with Qualcomm Quick Charge and other proprietary standards) which permits a maximum charge rate of 1.8Ah (1800mAh) under ideal conditions. Charge is reduced as needed to protect the battery pack (longevity/safety) and can also be influenced by charger voltage. Best guess is your Nexus charger is under rated or no longer provides steady output at/above 5.0 volts. An inexpensive USB charge meter (example) can be used to assess charger/cable quality.

As an aside it is amazing how ofter crappy cables are the root cause of charging and/or communication issues. Likely NOT the case here (probably the charge brick) but another reason to acquire a USB charge meter/gizmo. Will keep hair on your head. :)
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] mpersim:
I'm gonna say you probably guessed right and the charger is not providing steady output anymore at 5V. Had noticed in recent months that the charge time on the Nexus 7 had gone up.

Yes, it is amazing how a cable swap fixes so many issues when connecting to or charging our many devices.

Thanks for the response.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] Septfox:
If it's starting to no longer supply the expected current, then you really should stop using it. If the current output is out of spec, it's possible that the voltage level and ripple (how much the voltage fluctuates) are out of spec as well; the latter in particular can be dangerous if it gets out of hand before the charger just gives up and dies.

I've been using the black version of this Blitzwolf charger for a while on my xt1254 without any issue, though only with quick-charging...but there's no reason to believe it won't supply up to 3A at 5v as advertised, and this review has confirmed it.

Other than that, just get one from a reputable brand. Don't get an eBay no-name POS charger unless you want to put unnecessary stress on your equipment. Avoid Xiaomi OEM-style chargers too, they feel solid yet have absolutely no reinforcement on the USB port, relying on the pin solder to anchor them.

Hey there,

I got a problem, I got stuck on "Patching system image unconditionally..." for at least an hour..

I got unlocked Bootloader and newest TWRP and I did a wipe and formatted data..

I have Kindle Fire HDX 7 and want to flash following file: lineage-14.1-20170308-UNOFFICIAL-thor.zip

Best regards an thanks in advance..
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
- power down device (full off)

- boot into TWRP

- wipe system, data, dalvik and cache partitions

- there is no need to format anything

- flash ROM + GAaps package (best done together)

If problem persists you many have miaformatted data partition (wrong layout). Believe it needs to be ext4 on this device. Also verify checksum (MD5) of rom zip.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] TacoLoco:

I prefer not to wipe the data partition because it takes a lot of time and effort to restore everything.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
There should be no need to wipe the data partition. Thoughts:

- backup system/data partitions if you have room on the device

- move backup to host

- wipe system partition prior to update unless you've made changes there too

- flash latest build along with a suitable GAaps package (no bigger than mini)

- flush cache/dalvik prior to rebooting

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
Recommendation to wipe data partition is listed under heading Fresh Install and is particularly relevant when coming from another ROM which may use different folder structures.

You need to setup speaker optimisation and fet compression

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] CocoBun:
He's right it really does improve the speaker quality and volume. The best way to install it is from arise sound systems using the non-aroma installer, the latest version of it for non-aroma is 3.09. https://xdaforums.com/android/software/r-s-e-sound-systems-auditory-research-t3379709 You have to extract the arise_customize.prop from the zip to the root of sd card then edit it for how you want to install and/or choose add-ons​ if you want. Btw the aroma one doesn't work. I used the zip ARISE Deuteronomy 3.09 SwanSong Modular Installer.zip and installed the sound system core and viper4arise with profiles. The zip includes some of the best sound mods but I was only interested in viper. I still have the lineage audio fx for some reason I thought it deletes but apparently not, I just disabled it instead
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Original Android Develop] DB126:
That's a fair bit of work; guess it depend how passionate you are around tablet audio. For me Dolby is clean, easy and 'good enough'. Here's another link if the first is "deleted" (embedded download links head back to XDA). Between Dolby and Viper you should be able to improve on the current situation.

Not really just a few steps in 5 mins (minus the time to download). Download the zip, copy the arise_customize.prop from the zip to sd card root, edit the values in the prop file (it explains pretty straightforwardly how to work with it, basically typing true in the things u want) save it then flash the zip in twrp then bam done. I guess things like this seem easy to me cuz I'm a geek about it
