[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] NTGDeveloper:
Overall Impressions: Very Good So Far!

Gotta say this ROM is already working pretty well in general. I can't wait to see what else can come.

For my testing, I used a 16GB Fire HD 8 Douglas for the build that was released on November 28th, and I also flashed the first beta build on a 32GB Fire HD 8 Douglas as well. The 16GB had Magisk root and both installations included OpenGApps "Nano" package as that is what I prefer for the majority of my ROM installations. Even though the "pico" package was

I won't be mentioning my issues on the first build since those have already been addressed in replies to this post, so my focus is on the new build from today. Since I already had the first beta build installed on a testing tablet, I used the built-in LineageOS updater and it detected an update and even downloaded the update, but then showed a silent notification reading "LineageOS 14.1 - Nov 28, 2020 Install Error". I have attached a picture for reference. Because of this failure, I just rebooted the device into recovery mode and flashed the image manually using ADB Sideload, without doing a clean installation. (In other words, I didn't wipe anything before or after sideloading the ZIP file in TWRP, other than Cache and Dalvik after flashing) When I flashed the image, it seemed that Magisk 21.0 popped up in the log and even patched the boot image. That's pretty cool since I don't recall ever seeing that before. I then rebooted my system, and I gotta say, it took a while to load, but it eventually put me on the lock screen with the notification, "Finishing Android Update"! That was good to see, and everything seemed like it was before. So, without further ado, let's finally get to testing the ROM itself.

For testing ROMs, I like to follow a basic method that I came up with on my own, and my testing is compiled with a variety of different tasks. I will list only the issues that I encountered since my testing can be a little comprehensive. While I am not done with my testing yet, I will share my results after spending a good couple of hours with my device.

Volume Control: Backwards when in portrait orientation at first, but after rotating, it was fixed.

Bluetooth: Cannot pair a Bluetooth speaker (Specifically a Google Home Mini) because of incorrect paring pin. See Screenshots below (Bluetooth1.png and Bluetooth2.png) It seemed to prompt me to enter a pairing PIN, but did not give me a place to enter a code. However, on a device like this, I shouldn't enter a PIN. It should show me a pin to match with the device (or something similar to that).

Browser: Playing 1080p video on YouTube using the built-in browser gave me a stutter every once in a while, but I won't blame it on the ROM, and I believe that it has something to do with the hardware in the tablet itself (or my internet connection, which is gigabit with Comcast and an Arris S33 Modem and Nest Wifi Router). I was loading some websites built on the WordPress framework and while they loaded, I experienced some graphical glitches with them. Again, I'm not sure if it is the browser in the ROM or the device, but still, something to note.

Camera: There was no camera app on the launcher, so I attempted to load it through the lock screen, but it was a white screen, presumably attempting to load the app, but then it just brought me back to the lock screen as if it crashed. But, I had a screen lock turned on. So, when I unlocked my device, the camera app asked for my location, so when I allowed the permission, it actually crashed.

So those are my initial bugs, but I'm far from being done with this ROM. I have a whole lot of plans and tests and I can't wait to help out even more.
