CM10 Development for Kindle Fire HD 7"
- Thread starter reverendkjr
- Start date
Instead of cluttering up a development thread why don't you just wait and see what hashcode wants to do....

Try Q&A, you're far more likely to get an answer there than in a dev thread. But since you're here anyway try clearing the cache and fix perms. Sounds more like an android issue than hardware.
Me too! But I'm losing it, in my country internet has been censored and since you cant connect to vpn server via kfhd,this device is somehow useless when it comes to using the internet. i was considering selling my kfhd and buying another tablet but in this price range, none of them has a good display or sound for that matter. So i guess we are stuck with it and we just have to wait.
I know how you feel bro. I need vpn so bad but kindle doesn't support vpn. And with all these censorship and filtering, internet is useless without a vpn.
I'm waiting patiently for CM10

kindle fire hd support vpn, but need to download an app in amazon appstore
It won't work , we tried everything , you could try too, amazon won't let any apps connect you to vpn server , lots of people have the same problem and as far as I know there isn't any solution .
Would it be possible to port the unofficial CM10.1 for the KFHD 8.9" to the 7"?

If/when hashcode develops a working kernel for the kfhd7 we'll see roms...not until somebody gets a good kernel tho..

CM10 as a TWRP-loadable ZIP
Now that we have TWRP working on KFHD7, would it be possible to get Reverend Kyle's ROM in form of a ZIP that we can flash and test (after a good nandroid backup) ?
Anybody managed to load the alpha CM10 with TWRP?

You actually DON'T want to do that. My ROM is based on a different kernel/bootloader, and if you DO try to flash my ROM with TWRP, it will break what Hashcode has built for us. I would recommend waiting until Hashcode gets the kernel for cm10.1 built and we can make new ROMs with that.
Good to know... I was actually going to try and "fastboot flash system revboot.img -i 0x1949" keeping the current boot and recovery.
I would have probably bricked the whole thing.
Patiently waiting then (and in the meantime enjoying Kinology).
Thanks!
I actually did try it some time ago before kinology came out, the only thing that happened was the install gave an error and quit before flashing anything. It may be as simple as repackaging the ROM but I can't confirm that as I haven't felt the need to try.
Edit: The rom is flashable now, boots and works just fine, seems to have issue with saving anything to the internal memory, though downloading and running anything from the play store works great, will look into this some more.

92Greetings all...
You may be aware that verygreen is working on CM10 development for the 8.9" Kindle Fire HD. I am also working on getting this working on the Kindle Fire HD 7".
What works:
-Almost nothing so far. I can get past the bootloader and CWM will run (Thanks, verygreen!), but the CM10 ROM still needs to be developed further. I can flash it, and it appears to complete, but nothing comes up on the screen.
Trust me, this will be a slow process, but it IS BEING WORKED ON!
I will post any progress that I make.
::UPDATES::
[12/4] I now have screen working.
[12/5] Boots fully, but no touchscreen and the resolution appears to be wrong. (see image below.)
[12/7] Touchscreen now works, but is off by 90 degrees.
[12/8] Basic functionality appears to be working now.
Wifi works, and screen and softkeys are all working now too.
Check out the video:
[12/10] 210 seems to be the magic DPI number for this device. Thanks to all of you who suggested that.
[12/18] Link to instructions on how to install revrom_alpha1:

Stay tuned...26Not to de-rail, this thread anymore, but a very nice XDA user has shipped me his KFireHD7. Specifically to finish the kernel updates which would bring the 7 up to speed with the 8.9.
I am still quite busy but at least it's just a matter of time now.
Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Tapatalk 219I know it's taking a while for me to get a 7" HD build done; sorry for the loooong delay.
I'm fighting 1 kernel bug with display, and once that's fixed you guys will be caught up to the HD 8.9" cm10.1 build.
Which is now very usable with sound.
Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Tapatalk 21717Please don't fret folks, there will be progress.
Hashcode has helped me get his CM10.1 2nd-bootloader incorporated into my current ROM, plus there are others who are working on the kernel.
Be on the lookout for a new video from me.... soon ™.
