Yeah it works with sensor. btw dt2w makes the tablet to refuse to boot xD. Will have to look on other commits. Updater binder works tho.

Cheers!
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] LanceLot9980:
The HD 8 has a proximity sensor? Can you tell me where? I thought it didn't have one cuz i've never been able to find it (the amazon tab dev page says it doesn't have one...) Also GL with dt2w :)
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] LanceLot9980:
Here it says that it doesn't have a proximity sensor :confused:. If it really does have a proximity sensor then it would be great as you said dt2w isn't working rn and i would be able to use the sensor to wake the device.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Kaijones23:
The lid sensors is powered by the hall sensor that it senses magnet. Maybe your cover is not magnetic. The hall sensors should be located by the front camera
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] LanceLot9980:
I've only seen the light sensor so far beside the camera and can't find anything other than that which is why I'm confused.

How realistic is that the Headphones Jack will become functional in near Future?

Nice Rom btw
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Rortiz2:
Good question. The truth is that will become functional when someone finds a solution for any mt81xx amazon based tablet. From that we will be able to apply it on ours.

SlimLP

Hello guys,

We have another ROM for douglas. It is SlimLP based on Android 5.1. Video Record seems working, why not try it.

Cheers.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] kevinheb:
Hi there, many thanks for all of the work on this rom. I have come across a small issue, and I realise that its a pretty niche situation. On Google play I'm unable to install Cbeebies Playtime Island as I get a message "this app isn't compatible with your device anymore". When I installed it through an apk, there is sound in the menu, but none of the games have any sound. I'm just wondering if there might be a straight forward fix for this, rather than asking you to investigate this specific problem.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] LanceLot9980:
[MENTION=8978978]Rortiz2[/MENTION] would it be possible to implement gestures in this? Is it the same as implementing dt2w? (Also how's the dt2w implementation going :P)
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] dontpanic-xda:
Unfortunately, the most likely answer is that Cbeebies Playtime just doesn't support this version of Android. Due to its age, there are fewer and fewer devices running Android Lollipop 5.x. So developers focus their support on the biggest chunk of the market place.

If you browse around in Google Play, you will run across a number of apps that don't have a version available that runs on Android 5.x.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Juppy99:
Are they any updates on possibly getting android 7 on this tablet? If you need any testers I'm willing to test
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] kevinheb:
Thanks for your reply, and yes that is a fair point, and may be the issue, although looking on the BBC website they confirm that the app is for Android 4.4 and above
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Rortiz2:
It takes his time to go up Nougat. Please be patient, in XDA ETA doesn't make very sense...

It's not my priority to update to Nougat unless ggow's does it. You can't compare his work with ours work. He is a pro of Amazon MTK based tablets :p.

I will work on it but don't expect you will have noguat next week:)

PS: I prefer a stable Lollipop ROM (ignoring the headphones bug) than a buggy Nougat ROM;)

Cheers!
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Juppy99:
Sorry bud, wasnt meaning to rush ya! And i understand wanting stable OS over new OS. Still some fine work you have done here. I wouldnt even know where to begin lol
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] masterted:
I see a lot is going on here! Great work.

My daughter is using this generation Fire. I love to swap to this Douglas rom.... but for this, it is needed to have the headphones work.

Is this easy to solve? Or this something that is not easy to fix and will never happen in this rom? Thanks for letting me know, as I am a rooky.

Known Issues:

- Wired headphones do not work

- Video recording
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Korin67:
You seem post the similar article to this thread and SlimLP thread. You want to know which is better, right? Well, performance is the same because both of them use the same kernel and both are based on Android 5.1. The difference I noticed so far is with SlimLP, Video recording is okay and Google Play Store works smoother. By this reason I prefer SlimLP. No big difference anyway. If you can forget about wired headphones for some time, these two are both very good selections for you. You can totally be free from amazon ads.

Cheers.

[MENTION=8978978]Rortiz2[/MENTION] which would you recommend? This or slimLp?

I flashed OpenGapp before I could get a screenshot. It's working now with Gapp installed.

Any way to remove Gapp so I could duplicate error message?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Rortiz2:
You can't remove G-APPS. You need to do a clean flash to remove G-APPS.

Anyway, I think you need: https://github.com/microg/android_packages_apps_GmsCore

To make MicroG work without G-APPS.

Obviously not going to implement that package in the build. Not all people wants MicroG.

Thanks for the work on this. Would this rom still be compatible with the HD8 2019 karnak?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] ymcan:
Will this automatically show up as a system update or do I need to update manually? Just asking because we have about 30 of these around the organisation, and I don't fancy recalling them all.

I work for a charity, so we needed cheap and good tablets, and a Fire with LineageOS is perfect. Either way, thank you so much for making this accessible, it is a great help to us.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Rortiz2:
Thanks.

Sadly the updates need to be applied manually... I can try to implement OTAs for you but not sure if will work.

If you want to some tests, PM me.

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] boa05:
Hey, I think there is a fakegapps xposed module that can enable signature spoofing, I think you should try that.

Another option would be to flash nanodroid, but that will install lots of foss apps too, not sure if you mind that. Btw if you don't want to use google spyware I can recommend newpipe, a nice foss youtube client.

I have a karnak and a douglas.

Karnak seems very stable, but discovered that some games are not loading. And these games are the games that my kids play. So Douglas remains in a rooted fire os with google playstore just so kids can continue to play the games.

If anyone pls, try cooking fever and donut maker if they load and play? Thanks

And seems like headphones is not working on douglas yet.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] spelcheck:
Headphones are in development for douglas but can't give you an ETA. Check 14.1 karnak thread for updates on karnak related issues, including games. :svetius:
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] bry-c:
Yes, I know about the karnak 'a own board.

I just want to know if Douglas owners have problems with games mentioned so I can decide to flash lineage is on the douglas.

Thanks
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] bry-c:
Request to Douglas owners

Anyone pls test games if they work

Donut maker

Cooking fever

Holding off to flash lineage if games work or not.

Headphones patch work with this LOS version?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] spelcheck:
Heard offline that Cooking Fever at least doesn't currently work on douglas.. unknown about the other but looking like it may have the same issue as on karnak.

I get that you personally want off of FireOS, but if all those tablets are used for is when your kids are playing these two games you might be better off keeping them on FireOS. Plus what happens if your kids pick up another game that doesn't work or even worse crashes randomly.. you'll never hear the end of it, and the kids certainly won't appreciate that it has LineageOS on it.

Not to say this isn't something that might be worked on for fun by the devs, but it's a game in and of itself trying to find workarounds and fixes for these custom ROMs, and my advice is that if you're gifting these tablets to someone or having them use them on the daily, is to keep them stock(ish). IMHO.

Lego Boost Star Wars App

Rortiz2, thanks for your great work!

I'm having problems running this app:

LEGO® BOOST Star Wars™

as it requires min Android 6.0+.

Is there some way to bypass the android version check on installation?

Thanks in advance.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Rortiz2:
Hi,

Remember this thread is for the ROM. Anyway, no, I don't know any way to bypass the Android version. A good option would be pick up other tablet that is not Amazon or has a newer android version.

Regards.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] J4G3D:
This is interesting.

Can anyone tell me if i root my HD 8 and install this rom, that I can also modify the boot logo and splash screen to insert my own? Specifically interested to remove the "Amazon" boot logo.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] spelcheck:
You'll be able to replace the 'fire' logo but not the Amazon logo, as that's part of the boot process that loads before lineage or anything else you'd flash on it. Technically I have heard there is a way on some chipsets, but I've personally never heard of anyone successfully doing it.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Rortiz2:
You can replace the Amazon Logo;) Simply edit the LOGO partition and flash it with hacked fastboot.

OP has spoken :)
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Crim Soukyuu:
First, a huge thank you for working on this, gave my tablet a new life - it was just collecting dust because I was fed up with what amazon calls an OS...

The first impression was great, especially the battery life, with the typical 5.1 slowdowns.

However dirty flashing the latest build over the previous one resulted in a slowdown to a complete stop, nova launcher would hang on boot, any app started responded with a 10 second delay...

Restored from a twrp backup and it's back to normal. Did I miss a "do not dirty flash" sign? Did anyone else have a problem?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] spelcheck:
What build specifically were you on/are you restoring from?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] ismaelgokufox:
I dirty-flashed 20191214 unto the previous one and had to revert back to that one since the apps started freezing and stuttering constantly.

Did not try a clean flash though.

I use the OpenGapps for 5.1 ARM64 in PICO version

Also observe that this ROM, although great in performance, seems to always be hitting like the low memory killer state since apps tend to be closed upon switching to them some of the times.

A swap file helps with this but performance then suffers a little.

RAM usage seems to always be high even with just the clean flash without Gapps. Around 1GB+ in use with just the system apps installed. No customization. Fresh start.

I know unused RAM is wasted RAM but have seen some great multitasking from lesser specs tablets with a little more free ram and running Android 5.1 (My parents have an ACER cheap one that does with 1GB of RAM in it)

Just my two cents.

Will try the clean flash of 20191214 though.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] ismaelgokufox:
Clean flash 20191214 is working good at least without gapps. Will try to keep it that way.

Ram usage was ~750MB on fresh boot.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Lorisson:
Same for me. I suspect it has something to do with Play Service, since disabling it the system becomes smooth again (apart from Play Service not working of course). I did a clean install + Gapps but the problem persists.

It seems that the EGL patch in your 2019-12-14 build has broken a game that my father likes to play (Forge, a Magic: The Gathering app). I'd like to do some more testing - as a ROM maintainer myself, I want to build the latest sources but with the EGL patch reverted. The problem is, I can't find the commit where you did it - would you mind providing a link to it?

Thanks for working so hard for this device.

Thanks for all your hard work. I can confirm that after a clean flash headphone is working just fine. But downloading from play store is not working. I can't install any apps from play store, it just shows downloading. I am using Pico version of open gapps.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] spelcheck:
I found that toggling wifi off, then back on triggers downloading after a few minutes. Though requiring patience, it constantly works for me.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] phigan:
Maybe it's because I've been dirty flashing, but every game, or even the cartoon network app, eventually just slow down to a crawl and android asks if I want to close it or wait. I have not tried wiping and clean flashing, but I have wiped cache/dalvik etc. This latest build at least acts normal and lets me open the web browser after that happens with an app (seems like it goes back to normal), where I had to restart the tablet before.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] trahkce:
Thanks for the ROM op

Clean flashed lastest build fixed the headphone issue, I didn't try video recording tho. Everything supposed to be great except I got SystemUI stopped warning after flash opengapps, and sometimes sutter and extreme lag happened when I try to watch youtube or open some other apps like Facebook and Instagram. :(

I suspect that I flashed the wrong gapps, or something wrong with gapps? Because when I checked log it said that something about memory leak with com.android.gms... I flashed arm64-5.1-pico gapps

Im currently using stock 5.6.4.0, it didn't let me flash arm64-5.1-pico gapps before and shown me error that I must flash arm-5.1 gapps. I did flash arm-5.1-pico and everything worked fine, it's just strange that I can flash arm64 gapps before on your ROM but it turned out quite unstable...

Any ideas :confused:? Again thanks for your works

BTW: I think you should update #1 and title :D
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Rortiz2:
Thanks, I updated the op and the title.

About Google Apps no clue of what's wrong here.

Try redownloading the ROM and the G-APPS and do a clean flash again.

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Korin67:
I think this problem happended in the previoius built as well. When I use LOS12.1, I did not use Google Play (I know as a workaround, turn off Wifi temporally and then turn it on to startdownload, but this is not so convenient because apps are regularly updated I had to do this workaround again and again), instead use F-droid and Aurora store. If you are not so dependent on google library (as gmail app etc.), this is the best solution. You really need to use google-dependent apps, go to SlimLP is best: that is what I am doing.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Rortiz2:
Hi,

Thanks for the logcat. I'm not sure what's wrong here, I never had this kind of issues in any ROMs. Looks like "libunity.so" is crashing.

This may sound pretty stupid but do you rooted the tab? If so, did you used SuperSU or Magisk.

Regards.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Rortiz2:
Hi,

I didn't changed anything related to GAPPS in this build and the previous.

If in SlimLP they're working, means we need a older version of G-APPS.
