First of all, thanks for responding so quickly.

I understand that it works for you, with the system / trick that you comment on previous pages, right?

Can you put me the post, where do you explain the process?

Will you do it for screenshots, for newbies like me?

Finally, thank you again for your work.

I am REALLY impressed with how well this rom is working. I don't use video apps a ton on this and figured I'd like to see how it's working. Been totally stable (other than the known issues obviously) and I think it feels even a bit faster than the Lineage 12.1 rom! Very satisfying experience to use it, awesome job and looking forward to seeing the next versions!

As a bit of a tip: Android 7 was during the depths of Google's war against SD cards and they made it them very hard to use. My phone came with Android 7 originally and getting things like Titanium backup, etc, working well on the SD card was a huge problem. (I never was fully sure I was set up "right" with Android 7, and I am feeling the same way setting up the Fire 10-- you have to play with the Filesystem providers and give it access to the root of the SD card, etc... it's not straightforward and it's not the ROM's fault)

I have my storage provider set to External Storage, then I backed out to the root of the SD card, selected that, then came back to Backup Folder Location and pointed into my "TitaniumBackup" folder that I had created before which had all my backups. It worked fine for restoring apps, I haven't tried to back up which IIRC doesn't always get the correct write permissions in Android 7!! ugh. (I very clearly remember having this with my phone, I could restore apps fine but I couldn't back up until I changed things around another way.... maybe it has to be DocumentProvider and then backing up to a folder inside the app's folder in "/data" )

So while there may be genuine issues with this ROM and some SD cards now, a lot of the issues MIGHT be related to how Android 7 handles SD cards...

Amazon Prime Video is working.

You have to download the video first. Then go to "My Stuff" on the bottom. Select the video you dl'ed. Click on the 3 dots on the right side. Click on "Play download". Voila!

I have no clue why this works but it does. I tested it for Flea Bag and Carnival Row episodes and they both worked. YMMV.

This magisk module fix works, better than what I said a few pages back. I only fixed it for one particular app, i.e. I couldn't see the external sdcard with FX file explorer. For that app, I could just make a bookmark pointing to the folder within mnt/media_rw. The magisk module seems to make it work for all apps.

However, I have an LG v500 tablet where this works without any fix or magisk module. It is running a version of Lineage 14.1. In that system, mnt/media_rw contains the external sdcard folder, just as with this suez 14.1 version. So this fix must have been included in that system somehow. [MENTION=5749760]ggow[/MENTION], I'm only mentioning this in case there is a way for you to look at that build and see what was done to make this work.

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] drdtyc:
The attached OMX-patch and headphone-fix zips are to be flashed in recovery by TWRP.

OMX-patch fixes the no video (black box) problem when using Youtube , Netflix etc.

The headphone-fix fixes the no audio output in earphone jack.

If you installed Vanced Youtube app prior to flashing this OMX patch, you need to uninstall and re-install Vanced Youtube. Video play back should now work.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] BeniS98:
Unfortunately still no new build. I think @ggow gave up this device as he's currently working on ROMs for other devices.

I tried that already. Still doesn't work. It also happen to Fire HD 8 with lineage 14.1. Same problem. Should be something missing that need to be added but i do not know what to do.

Thanks @sol-invictus, you're right, I have not abandoned this device, had some much needed down time due to juggling life's other commitments.

[MENTION=5749760]ggow[/MENTION], I mentioned a Miracast problem in this thread and also in the 12.1 thread. One sentence I wrote there said: "This seems to be related to something about Mtk OMX". That was just a guess after I looked at the logcats, so the Miracast problem may have nothing to do with OMX. But since you mentioned that you are working on issues with OMX, I'm wondering if you think these Miracast problems might be fixed also.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] ggow:
Yes, Miracast should be fixable. However won't know for sure until I have a deeper look.

And how about to upstream the kernel from 3.18.19 to 3.18.140? Is that possible or do the proprietary MTK drivers not allow that?

Now I noticed another issue: This new LOS 14.1 ROM produces a significant higher battery drain than the 12.1 one. With the old one, I had 46% remaining battery after one week(!) in standby, with the new 14.1 the battery drained from 40 to 0% overnight while standby. Is this also related to the broken OMX?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] ggow:
There are going to be many factors relating to battery drain. Will address the power related issues later. Will add to my list.

Kernel will also come later, I have already begun work on a new kernel using a different base. Mtk drivers shouldn't be too hard to modify to fit with the new base (if any are needed).

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] retora:
It seems that the memory management / multitasking is much better with this rom compared to 12.1 or fireOS. There are more apps left running in the background. Also the touchscreen is improved, at least I often had zoom-difficulties with the old rom which are completely gone here. Great work so far, [MENTION=5749760]ggow[/MENTION], thank you!
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Shadow Death:
I read somewhere that SELinux plays a roll in it too. SELinux needs to be permissive. I also remember ggow saying he needed to add more stuff to the SELinux Permissive list.

So I'm just holding off on V4A for that reason for now.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] meanhoe:
Install through Magisk Manager. All 3 versions work. I suggest you do not install Material version during the install process if/when it asks you or you will flag Google Play Protect msgs. Works wonderfully.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] ggow:
It should be fine to go ahead and install v4a. I'm nowhere ready to go enforcing with selinux at the moment. But when I do I have already identified the changes required to allow v4a to function correctly.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Shadow Death:
I tried all 3 and I had issues. It would say it's enabled and processing but the second a sound plays it says Processing No.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] meanhoe:
[MENTION=4243363]Shadow Death[/MENTION] I restored a backup from right before I installed V4A. I installed V4A XHiFi and it works without having to mess around with anything. I'm not sure why it isn't working for you.

Also, I did test out Ainur Sauron and this worked as well. Perhaps you want to try that out. Good luck!
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Shadow Death:
I will just do a wipe and reflash then try again. It's probably because I tried one of the older V4A plugins first.

Edit: no dice. V4A XHiFi will show it's working and processing. The second I try to play anything with Youtube Vanced or Ymusic it says it's off and not processing.

Edit 2: GAH! I figured it out. AudioFX was still present. So I used titanium backup to freeze that app and it works flawlessly now.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] german_psycho:
Can't confirm that. Last night I had a battery drain over night (7.5h) of 8%. Way more than Stock ROM, but far away from your experience. Did you dirty flash over 12.1?

I did a clean flash.

Don't wanna pollute this thread with OT

Wired headphones are set via .dws under dct / codegen .

In your stock ROM, ( lollipop ) , you should have an config file called ProjectConfig.mk under "system/data/.." This should give you some precious info about the configuration

I use the Servicely and Naptime apps to reduce the idle battery consumption in this LineageOS v14.1 ROM. I lose about 5% of battery charge over 10 hours.

If you know the Xposed framework and get it installed and running correctly, then the Greenify app can do pretty much the same as Servicely and Naptime apps together. However, I would tend to use Servicely and Naptime apps together over the Greenify app alone - the Servicely and Naptime apps can be set up to work in detail together in a rather more brutal manner to spare precious battery life.

My eyes are sensitive to light at nighttime - I sure would welcome some functioning to lower the light intensity below its current minimum value.
