Amazon Apps Fix

I think you are talking about the build.prop solution. In summary it's a file stored on the /system folder of your device which needs to have some properties changed.

On your system build.prop file you need to change the ro.product.brand and ro.product.manufacturer properties to the values bellow (other values might work, but these ones are working for me so far):

ro.product.brand=google
ro.product.manufacturer=htc

If you don't know how to make this type of change, you could Google "edit build.prop using adb". There are different methods and supposing you have TWRP recovery these instructions might be enough for you:

Setup ADB on your PC.

Boot your Android device into TWRP recovery.

Select Mount » and then select System from the list of partitions to mount the system partition and then go back.

Connect your device to the PC with an authentic USB cable.

Open a command window on the PC and issue the following command to pull build.prop file from the device:

adb pull /system/build.prop

The above command will download the build.prop file to your PC in the same directory where your command prompt is running from. Tip: Make a copy of the build.prop file before you edit it so that you’ve a backup of the original file.

Open the build.prop file on your PC using any text editor.

Edit the build.prop file as per your requirement and save it on the PC after making the changes.

Once you’ve saved the edits to the build.prop file, push it back to the device using the following command:

adb push build.prop /system/

Now set the correct permissions for the build.prop file with following commands (issue them one-by-one):

adb shell
cd system
chmod 644 build.prop

Once you’ve set the correct permission for build.prop file, reboot your device to system from TWRP’s Reboot » System option.

5 ghz Wi-Fi not working

Hi,

I got two Wi-Fi Access Points one on the 2.4 ghz and the other on the 5 ghz band.

Under FireOS I was able to connect to both, now I am only seeing the 2.4 ghz AP.

Any suggestions? :confused:

[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] jachol:
Well someone is producing these nightly builds, not frequently I grant, but they are working toward a release build, so don't knock it.

Here's the original ROM Thread ... Check it out.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] pxrave:
Active development has been stopped only Upstream updates. If you guys want a stable Rom use px Rom based on Amazon

Maybe someone will release a working 4.4.4 with latest security.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] taizel:
Agree that the audio jack is a bummer, I'm using this rom and I'm pretty satisfied with it regardless of the problem.

Perhaps someone knows a developer that can help debugging the issue and maybe even make a pull request on github?

Thanks for the awesome work anyway!
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] jachol:
I hadn't heard that, it's working OK for me with the latest nightly. I've always said it is a limited device anyway especially the 8 GB model, and no Ext SD card.

I only use mine to download and read my morning newspaper, and stream the occasional video ( it does that pretty good). ... J.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] pxrave:
do you have the idle bug?

device dont go to deep sleep?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] jachol:
Can't say I've noticed that, but as I've said most of the time it only gets limited daily use.

I have a Hisense sero 7 Pro, that is used for any other purpose. (a much better device)

Can you enlarge on the symptoms to look for ?. ... J.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] pxrave:
nop battery is always full draining on every nightly no deep idle

i switched to the latest fireos 4.5.5.3 update (i will update px-fireos too)

looks like that's the best way to use this piece of hardware
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] jachol:
Ah !, there you go ........ This device has only short daily use most of the time,

and is switched off between times, so that effect would go unnoticed.

Plus I do use the "Greenify" app (Paid version), on all my devices, tablets and phone

to prolong battery life, but can't say I've checked just how much it helps on the SOHO. ... J.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] pxrave:
so you didnt noticed the bug at all :)

aosp is much more fluent as amazon os...

i will try to port a working 4.4.4 rom for our device (old but maybe fully working!)
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] taizel:
By px-fireos you mean this one? https://xdaforums.com/kindle-fire-hd/7-development/unlocked-px-fireos-t3525663

Sorry if my questions are obvious but it's not clear for me what's the difference between the px-fireos and the original stock rom for the Kindle Soho? Is this rom based on the actual last rom from Amazon that is normally not available for the Soho? Also the last post from the px-fireos link I've sent says the project is discontinued, is that the one you plan to update?

Thanks again for all the work.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] pxrave:
Because I used this rom I didn't worked on px fire os

Yes it's only a modded Amazon stock Rom. I want to port a aosp 4.4.4 Rom

Probably a new tweaked kernel with zram tuning from CM14.1 would help on the UI side.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] kidicarus1602:
Any other roms that work well on this device. Or is it a case of flashing stock and adding the play store?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] freshmike:
Kind of the later unfortunately. No fully working rom out there, so it's a matter of modifying the existing one, blocking OTA updates .. etc.

Are you still using the rom? I have this tablet still and it just does nothing. I'd love to install a custom rom on it and use it more.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] John877:
Im sorry for such a late reply or bump but I just got this tablet used from a relative and I seem to have borked it up bad. I am wondering how you managed to get 4.5.5.3 back running on it. Is that with stock recovery and bootloader as well? I tried to root 4.5.5.3 a while back with Kingroot and it failed and asked if I wanted to retry so I said yes. Then the tablet rebooted and then it got stuck at the white n orange kindle fire logo screen.

I have since tried to do a restore but cant seem to get it past the same screen. I currently have TWRP on it and tried to sideload 4.5.5.3 but no luck. I have a fastboot cable so I can get into fastboot mode fine. I tried following the restore direction on TWRP page but I get only so far as the sideloading the update.bin file and when i restart it hangs at logo. Im sure Im doing something wrong somewhere. I would appreciate some help if you have time.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] pxrave:
You need to read install super su system mode and it will work... Don't try other crapy root solutions.

Btw system less won't work also
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] John877:
No worries about being a bit late. I realize this device is nearly 6 years old now so I'm just glad someone even replies at this point. :D

I have since made progress on my own after reading what others have tried. I found out the reason I was stuck with the white n orange kindle fire logo screen was cause before sideloading the stock firmware I was only wiping cache and dalvik. Once I wiped everything before that then the sideload worked and it booted up into the OS.

Unfortunately, however, I still have a small issue. I seem to not have any recovery, TWRP or stock. When I press the PWR +Vol- the device just shuts off instead of going to recovery. Also I wasnt even sure if it would even work so I never added the SuperSU while in TWRP while following the TWRP page directions for a full restore. So I dont have root which is no biggie right now as I am just glad to have it back running again.

So I guess my question now is, can I flash on TWRP temporarily in fastboot mode and then in TWRP flash SuperSU and Gapps and then in fastboot, provided I get hold of a stock recovery .img file from 4.5.5.3 or the newest 4.5.5.5 even though it still says 4.5.5.3 in the System Info screen. All without disturbing the data I have since been adding like apps and such.

Also, I installed another launcher (ADW 2) and every time I hit the Home button it asks me which Launcher I want to use as though its not saving the Always selection.

I know its a lot of questions so Im sorry for that lol

I have a Question. I had Evervolv on my KFSOWI. I made a mistake to boot into Recovery, but there was no recovery installed. So i'm now stuck on the grey kindle fire logo.

The problem is, that the tablet doesn't boot into fastbootmode even with a factory cable. The problem is that i'm not 100% sure if that is the right cable because it was in a box with many other usb cables.

My question is, is it even possible to brick that tablet, so that i doesn't boot into fastboot even with a fastboot cable?

Best regards

Actually, I spoke too soon: while the keyboard works just fine in TextMaker, I've been finding over the past few days that it skips letters or puts my spaces in in the wrong order when I'm typing in any of the built-in apps.

On Design View the button and the TextView are exactly where I put them (Text View on left top and button on the middle of the screen) but when I install the APK on my phone or simulator the button are on top of the screen and on top of the TextView (left top).

(I had to remove some lines because since I'm new this forum won't let me post outside links)
[Android Studio] mrgiles:
What's your root layout? I would recommend not using the absoluteX and absoluteY. Instead use layout_alignParentTop or layout_below if you are using a relative layout. If you are using a constraintLayout you can use anchor points to make sure they are in the part of the screen you want. You can also use margin and padding to help give it the spacing you want.
[Android Studio] Unity Dev:
use LinearLayout with vertical orientation as your parent root so everything will be aligned vertically

However, I doubt it will work better than the other files. If it keeps on failing with:

then there's still something wrong with the communication between qboot and the programmer file. I.e. we would need a programmer file that works with more recent bootloader revisions.
