[MENTION=8978978]Rortiz2[/MENTION] A few posts back, someone mentioned that they were using the Stock package for GApps. I see earlier in the thread that you suggest using Pico. I have two questions:

1. Are there any conflicts with installing a version above PIco, such as Full or Stock?

2. Are you able to install Google Play Games from the Play Store when using the Pico package? I am able to do so on another device with the Nano package, but that is a Pie device. On this ROM, I was unable to do so with Pico.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Rortiz2:
1. No, I only reccomend them.

2. Yes. If not, sideload the apk.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] nirogu325:
[MENTION=8978978]Rortiz2[/MENTION] - is the headphone jack audio working on the new build? I'm only asking cuz I had to go back to FireOS for a while.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Kctucka:
Figured out the WiFi issues were on my end. It's working well!

Headphone jack doesn't work for me in newest build.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] jibgilmon:
What changes were made to the build.prop between this build and the last build? One of my regular apps is no longer compatible in the Play Store on the new version. I was using the 1.5 beta before, along with the Pico GApps. I noticed the same DPI issue as was mentioned previously in this thread, but instead of changing the build.prop I just increased the text size from Settings. Today, I did a full wipe and flashed the new 1.6 beta with Full GApps, and now the screen size is very different and many apps are not visible in Play Store. I tried to fix this by setting the official DPI, which is 189, in build.prop. After reboot, a DPI Checker app says I'm using 189 DPI and the display is 800x1223. Perhaps the issue is that the width is below 1280?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Kaijones23:
I have changed back the dpi to the stock fire os that recommends. And that's all to the build prop. Headphones we are still working on it.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] jibgilmon:
I just did a wipe and performed a fresh install of the latest version with Pico GApps, and the app is still not available in Play Store. Now that I've tested with Pico, the only difference between the app being compatible or incompatible is that I'm using beta 1.6 instead of 1.5. Something in this release broke compatibility with some apps, and I assume the DPI change is the cause.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Kaijones23:
What app are you trying to install?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] jibgilmon:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rivafarabi.deckboard.pro

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rivafarabi.deckboard

Edit: [MENTION=9605864]Kaijones23[/MENTION] Feel free to send me a PM if you'd rather talk about this via other means such as Telegram. I'm more than happy to wipe and flash if you would like me to test out a build with changes, if you determine that to be necessary.

Edit 2: Also, Full/Stock GApps is SOOOO sluggish on this. Anybody using it is insane. I have significantly better performance post-install with Pico. With a device like this, every bit counts.

Hey guys. I'm new to this stuff and would like to install Lineage on my brand new FireHD 8. ;) Would be nice if you could give me some hints.

1) I guess, I have to follow this guide, right? https://xdaforums.com/hd8-hd10/general/tut-root-hd82018-via-magisk-t3906554

I'm not sure, if I have to do this completely or up to a certain step?

2) How is this new TWRP 3.3.1 installed given in https://xdaforums.com/hd8-hd10/orig-development/recovery-twrp-touch-recovery-t3948995 ?

Thanks in advance.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Michajin:
1: yes follow that guide, but you dont need to install finalize, if you put 14.1 on portable storage and the new TWRP 3.3.1 on the portable. After you get into TWRP flash TWRP 3.3.1 reboot back into recovery, Wipe data,cache,dalvik, system, then install 14.1 LOS and Gapps, reboot

2:it is great, it is required for flashing 14.1 LOS, and backing it up.

You might have an issue with restoring the orig.boot.img, i hear it may name it as a bin?

I did mine with the MTK-SU, ran the hd8 bootrom script, then ran the hd8 fastboot script. booted into twrp, installed 3.3.1, rebooted back into recovery, installed 14.1 and pico gapps. took about 20 minutes?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] idontkn1:
Is this the 7-17 zip?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] maback:
Any fix/hack to make speaker volume louder? I'm pretty sure it's a lot quieter than when it was on FireOS.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] nirogu325:
There are Magisk audio modules for that which have some kind of playback gain controls like Viper4Android, JamesDSP, etc. Since that's off topic, you may consult those modules threads.

Btw. does amazon video only check if the amazon ota apk is present or does it also check if it is valid (checksum, hash, certificate)?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Kaijones23:
Amazon prime video works fine
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] jibgilmon:
[MENTION=9605864]Kaijones23[/MENTION] did you happen to look into the issue I was having with Deckboard at all? The Deckboard dev thinks it's related to a hardware camera requirement, but it was working properly on your 1.5 beta and it works properly for me in FireOS on my 9th Gen Fire 7.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Kaijones23:
The issue is that the app isn't capable with the device. Did it work with the fire os?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Zhaofeng Li:
Great ROM! There is just one issue, though. The UI is a bit sluggish, and I can only get ~40FPS using the "FPS Test" app on Play Store. The stock Fire OS can go up to 60FPS.

Edit: In case anyone wants, here is the unmodified full OTA for NS6301/1631: https://d1s31zyz7dcc2d.cloudfront.n...dle-karnak-NS6301_user_1631_0001309040516.bin
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] jibgilmon:
Works with FireOS and it worked with your 1.5 release of LineageOS 14.1
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] ShayBox:
I think you're linking to the wrong source code repository, you're linking to a fork which is older and doesn't have the latest releases, the forked project is the one being developed on, from mt8163
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] hudsonbra:
Yep. I did notice that too. Try to turn off the AudioFX app bc it helps get louder.

Anyway the performance of the rom is so much better. Thank you, developers.

Got the latest build installed on my HD 8 ($30 refurb from Prime Day) after unlocking the boot loader and rooting it per the guides in the OP. Working pretty well so far, but there are some animations that are choppy & laggy, like pulling down the notification shade. I don’t get these same lags on the stock ROM (w/ root) on my HD 10.

Is there an issue with the UI and hardware acceleration? Anything I can do to remedy this? To the OP, is there any data I can provide to help solve this issue?

You guys are doing God’s work here, for real. Keep it up!

Netflix seems to work reliably if background is changed to a static image. I know the stock background doesn't look very live, but it must be live enough to interfere.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] blaum:
I was able to install this Lineage ROM. Very cool. :good: Great work, guys!

The first boot of Lineage after the installation took several minutes - is this expected?

This is my very first usage of Lineage, so a few questions:

Are updates installed over the air into the running system or is it always the way via TWRP (including system wipe)?

And just for curiosity: Why v14 at the beginning? I guess, because FireOS is also based on Android 7?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Rortiz2:
14.1 because the prebuilt Kernel is for nougat.

Also kaijones is working on LOS 16.0.

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Kctucka:
Has anyone gotten a flip cover to turn screen off and on with cover closing and opening?

It tends to turn the screen on when I open, but won't turn it off upon closing. Not a big deal at all, just wondering if anyone's got it working.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] DB126:
Assume you mean on this ROM as it works fine on stock. Unfortunately, no personal experience with the former. Generally not something you can tweak; ROM maintainers will likely need to address.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] maback:
Same behavior here. Will turn on when opening, but stay on when closed.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Kctucka:
OK, so it's not just me.

Thanks for the great work! I have the July 17 build running with Magisk and GApps.

All of my media apps are Chromecast functional now but video from the device is broken except for YouTube. I saw some posts about Netflix crashes that you are working on as well as video recording. It feels like a codec issue or something. I'm looking forward to the LineageOS 16 build! Thanks again

Is there any chance that this will be ported to the Hd8 2017?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Kctucka:
It could be, and likely wouldn't be super difficult for the devs.

The difficult part would be porting the bootloader exploit, so a custom ROM could be flashed in the first place.

I am also running into this problem with Deckboard Pro with the pico variant of gapps (haven't tried the others but from what I'm reading, I don't want to), hope to see the issue addressed soon. :/

EDIT: installing the non-pro apk manually works fine and the app functions as intended.

I installed the latest version and Netflix wouldn't work at all. Booted to TWRP and reinstalled the build zip (dirty, no wiping) and then Netflix was fixed. Could be worth a shot to try.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] agr8lemon:
Just wanted to say THANK YOU for working on this. Both my daughter and I have a HD Fire 8 and they were ok, but the Fire OS is just, well, crap. I knew that going in but I was hoping someone would figure out how to break this thing.

I only just loaded this ROM, but I'm blown away by how FAST it is compared to the FireOS, I mean it's like a real tablet! I know there's a ton of work that goes into it, so thank you very very much to everyone involved!
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Reverse-anastomosis:
Just curious, do you have a background? I had errors until I removed my background.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] nujak:
Yeah. I use Microsoft launcher with the Bing daily wallpaper.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] formerglory:
A few observations after using the latest build for a few days. I have two HD 8 units, one I got a few months ago and one I got last week on Prime Day.

The official Amazon origami folio/cover does not work to turn the screen off or lock it, but does work when the unit is off and locked, when the cover is opened the display turns on and I can unlock it normally. Not a big deal.

One thing I noticed was that there were several animations that were dropping frames and laggy, specifically when pulling down the notification shade or using search with Nova Launcher. These slowdowns have gone away completely after a few days, weirdly enough. Could have been something with the initial indexing or something. Also could be Google Play Services updating itself to a newer version that fixes some things? Spitballing here.

One issue I ran into initially (but haven’t seen in a day or two) is that the tablet would essentially “forget” that it had a microSD card installed and would refuse to play any video files from it. The card would disappear in VLC, MX Player, and Solid Explorer until you rebooted the tablet, at which point the card would reappear and function normally. This happens when you leave the tablet alone and idle, after maybe an hour it would exhibit this forgetful behavior. This issue seems to have disappeared though and I’ve gone a day without having the issue. Again, weird.

Rear camera doesn’t work, front camera does. Only an issue when I was setting up Resilio Sync and syncing some of my folders from my PC (linking the tablet with QR codes in the setup process).

Netflix works fine, no issues here. Am using a static, regular wallpaper with Nova Launcher Pro.

Audio/speakers seems a bit quieter than the stock Amazon ROM and the max volume still seems a little quieter, regardless of AudioFX being enabled or disabled.

Other than the aforementioned issues (and pre-existing issues such as the headphone jack), the tablets are running great. The family and I have been on a road trip and one of the tablets has been used for kid entertainment for Junior (the one that was exhibiting video issues). This ROM is still a huge upgrade from the stock Amazon ROM and I’m sticking with it.

After following @ bibikalka's guide on rooting fire hd 8, I flashed Lineage 14.1 Beta 7 with Magisk and Gapps (nano) and WOW is it such an improvement. Like others have said, this feels like a legitimate tablet I can use daily with minimal lag so far.

I've been having trouble getting the SafetyNet passed though, specifically CTS Profile false. Anyone got any ideas?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Kctucka:

Firstly a huge thanks for all the hard work that has been put into making this possible. This was my first time installing LineageOS, and everything worked out fairly smoothly.

My use for the FireHD tablet, entails sharing a laptop's internet access with the tablet via Bluetooth. Unfortunately, I ran into a slight issue at the end of this process on the FireHD tablet - the 'Use for Internet Access' checkbox unchecks itself. I was able to do this successfully on a Nexus 10 tablet, and tried the FireHD paired to both a phone and laptop with the same (unsuccessful) results.

My steps:

On a phone (I am using a Moto G6, running Android 9), turn on Bluetooth, turn on hotspot

Under Hotspot and Tethering, enable Bluetooth tethering

On the FireHD, turn on Bluetooth, and pair the phone and tablet.

Once paired, on the FireHD, under Bluetooth/Paired devices, click the gear/settings icon

In the dialog box that appears, (try to) click 'Use for Internet Access'.

My result: On touching the checkbox, it grays for a split second, and then returns to the unchecked state.

I tested this same procedure on a Nexus 10 tablet (running Android 5.1), and on touching the checkbox, it disables for a couple seconds, returns in a checked state, and the internet is shared without issue.

Any insights into the following would be appreciated:

a) Is this issue specific to this build (beta 1.6) of LineageOS 14.1 on the FireHD?

b) Is this issue specific to my setup (do others get the same result)

c) Any suggestions on next steps to explore

Thanks again for the great work,

-Chris

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] hudsonbra:
reporting some bugs:

1- I can´t log in on youtube vanced app ( microg correctly installed)

2- Just reforcing what the buddy said above, the sound is very low

3- In lockscreen sometimes the rotation is kinda bug

4- Split screen with a browser in one side dont work at all

5- swap volume buttons accord to tablet orientation is not working for me

Thanks for the hard work, guys. i´m super excited about LOS16

For 1, use the magisk version of vanced. It will have the same package name as the official app and be signed in on launch. No need for micro g unless not rooted.

Hello. My little report about OTG (Lineage OS 14):

OTG is working!

USB hub working well

USB flash drives working well

USB mouse working well

USB Ethernet adapter working well, but tablet rebooted when I opened one page in Google Chrome)) But page is opened :good:

Sorry, for my bad English
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] longtime_lurker:
Three things:

1. My OTG experience:

flash drive works

mouse works

More exotic / video related stuff crashes the tablet (reboots either when you open app to use device, or as soon as you plug it in):

- webcam - crashes when plugged in

- Eachine ROTG FPV Receiver reboots tablet whem opening app ( e.g. fpviewer like I use on my other phones)

By the way on linux pc both those devices are v4l2 via uvcvideo driver, like any webcam.

I will also try DVB tuner stick, and analog usb video capture card (easycap clone)

2. Problem with lag - night light hardware acceleration/lag - as soon as I enable night light, or even just calibrate colors differently than default (just 1 percent change in any color is enough to trigger it), lag starts when dragging notification shade. I think other stuff also lags in this case.

However, depends what app is in foregeound.

Settings - no lag happens when dragging down shade

FDroid - no lag in main screen, lag when shade is brought down while viewing an app

Nova Launcher - lag while pullimg down when on home screen

Google Photos - open app, no lag pullimg wodn shade; open a photo -> lag comes when draggimg shade down; go back to main screen now this also lags when dragging notifications shade

Probable depends if app is using gpu, compositing, layers, ../.?

3. Third issue - in newpipe, the video player does not play h264 videos, you have to choose webm format. Hwaccel / omx / codec issue? Some other apps play h264 fine (eg VLC) but they may be using different cpdec, their own player/library/codec instead of the system/builtin/default one, or they disable/enable some option? I think it is a framework issue either way since default should work...

Was checking to see if this would work on a Fire 10 (2017) tablet? I ask this because I know with like Samsung each model beside the LTE vs the WiFi only models. They have different boot image files that keeps you from running a say SM-T350 ROM on a SM-T550 tablet. the 350 is just a 7" version of the the T550 that is a 9.7" version on the same tablet hardware.

So I wanted to ask before I tried to install this and really make it a 200 buck doorstop. Thanks for the time you take to help me out on this. Keep up the great job.
