I've been having wifi issues on any network. It stays connected for about 10 minutes and then loses it for about 30 seconds and then it's back up again. Any suggestions?

I looked around the forums and didn't see anything about this. So, I'm sorry if it has already been talked about.

I noticed something pretty strange when charging my Fire last night. I'm not sure how useful it would be but I'll share it anyway.

I drained the battery down to 4%, but I still needed it so I plugged it into the wall charger. The battery had the "!" symbol on it at the time. Well, ten minutes or so later I look and the "!" is still there.

I went to the battery stats to see where it was and it was still at 4%. Refreshed it a couple times, no change. So I figured at least it wasn't discharging and continued using it.

I finished on some work I was doing on the build.prop and had to reboot, but when I did the battery wasn't dead anymore. Checked the battery stats and it was up to 23%.

I'm not sure exactly what would cause that but it might be of some help to pinpointing the problem.

Just an fyi for the devs... I had a similar issue, except discharging. Battery showed 88% until I rebooted, then it was at 4%.

Hash > the old 6# felt a bit quiker than the 7# build. Or is it only placebo ? And performence in both quadrant and antutu benchmark is poor.... 2100 in quadrant and 5100 in antutu.

When can we se a build @ 1.2ghz 1.3 ghz ?

Dosnt matter about the benchmark becase this kernel sets the fire on fire for real !!!

Bigup for great work keep them coming Hash !

Tiny glitch

I don't see any posts about it, but the file copy notification strobes on and off instead of staying on. It's not even a slight annoyance, but it's there.

Upgraded to #7 from #6

"Banding" issue appears to be resolved. The banding pattern I was seeing in #6 was consistent with the pattern of the "grey flash" I was getting when resuming from sleep. I'm still getting the "grey flash" on resume but no more banding.

HWA seems to be working fine for me.

Same news with me. I am getting the FLASH of light on resume as well.

Just plug and play here. I did have to reboot with the Dongle in the OTG cable before it would recognize it. But it booted up working perfectly. The Fire goes to sleep and wakes up if I move the mouse or keyboard. Remote desktop works REALLY well with it.

tether gps

i was wondering if the kernel could be the problem with using the tether gps client app on my kindle? i use my galaxy s2 to create a hotspot then tether my kindle to it. in the past this has worked but know after installing the reloaded 1.2h rom it doesn't. i know the kernel is a work in progress and has been really great.

I've tested the wireless tethering for the phones that I currently have (about 4) and everything worked. However, it may be that there are tweaks which need to be made to wpa_supplicant to allow more phones to be tethered (and this was done in the previous ROMs, I believe).

Also, I know that on the Motorola RAZR, you need to select a "Droid RAZR" profile in Wifi Tether, before most tablet devices will be able to connect. You probably have a similar setting already setup, but this is a good item to check as well.

i can tether my kindle to my phone and it connects and i can surf the web but for some reason the tether gps client on my kindle isn't receiving data from the tether gps server on my phone. i can't discern if its the app itself or its something else. they updated the app awhile back to work on ics and it worked fine when i was on reloaded rom 1.2 but know i moved to 1.2h with kernel 3.0 #7.

edit: after flashing back to reloaded 1.2 with a different kernel i can i get it to work. hash if you are curious you can search the play store for droid 2 droid. the app is the same as tethergps but gives you more information. in that app, when i was on kernel 3.0 where my ip address should be (for my kindle that was givin from my phone) is a string of some kind with wlan0 at the end. i know thats not much help without using the app so you can see what im talking about :)

edit2: ok nvm i just reflashed the rom i was using and that worked so this long post is pointless. if a moderator sees this they can delete it.

Unless we can someday come across a fully generic driver like we have for the touch screen, it's unlikely that it will work at all, or any better than before Amazon disabled it of their own accord.

Yeah I'm getting antsy for 1.2 GHz, but especially for 1.3 GHz. I have ALWAYS overclocked and running stock speed for me is really slow by comparison.

My guess is that we'll see overclocked versions in the next update or two.

    NEW KERNEL IS CHARGING. OS DOESN'T SHOW THE CHARGING ICON.
    Make sure when you plug in to check the Settings -> Battery screen and see "Charging"


    06-28: KERNEL.ZIP #13 IS NOW READY HERE (FLASH IN RECOVERY): REMOVED TEMP
    (Recompiling w/o Linaro for compatibility)
    md5sum: a16c281fa3dbe0962c6dc2c03e6df5bc
    Full ROM: http://bit.ly/NaD2vW
    md5sum: d9dfe6f5f97eadbeaecc86d0314cb80e
    - Mainline Linux 3.0.31 updates
    - TI kernel 3.0.21 branch updates
    - [ROM-Only] Now w/ "OtterParts where the touchscreen filter setting can be set (0 as default, but 30 is very usable) -- (Scott Brady)
    - Built using Linaro toolchain
    - Added KRAIT optimizations (not sure how effective yet) (twa_priv)

    NOTE: I haven't adjusted the nightly server to use the 3.0.31 kernel OR Linaro yet. This is the only ROM link I've built with it in it.


    [06-27-2012] UNOFFICIAL NIGHTLY SERVER IS RUNNING:
    DOWNLOAD HERE
    GApps: http://goo.im/gapps (4/29 is the latest in the CM9 row)
    These builds are using a stock framework which includes the volume slider mod. It's kept up-to-date by twa_priv.

    STEPS FOR UPDATING:
    1. Download .zip file from the nightly server and place on your device
    2. Reboot into recovery and apply .zip
    3. If coming from any ROM which is not CM9 please wipe data/cache/Dalvik Cache
    4. Reboot and enjoy

    LATEST CHANGES:
    [06-26-2012] Added sbradymobile's touch filter patch + OtterParts for controlling the filter level (30 recommended, default as 0 for now) (under Settings -> Advanced) [THANKS!]


    SOLO KERNEL NOTES:

    06-08: KERNEL.ZIP #12 IS NOW READY HERE (FLASH IN RECOVERY): http://bit.ly/KPbDVm
    md5sum: e7476ff785b2dfbdb062e1cc036c14ac
    - Touchscreen driver changes (event optimization, ICS friendly)
    - Updated the WLAN driver to R5.00.18 (up from R5.00.5)
    - Cleaned up the charger code some more (part of on-going charger work)
    - Added more support for PPTP and L2TP connections
    - [NEW 06/08] Added CCMP support used in 802.11i for EAPOL/WPA2/IPSEC connections using 4-way handshakes (Will fix some users who can't connect to wifi at certain locations)


    TROUBLESHOOTING FOR USB not being recognized in Windows 7 (while the Kindle is *NOT* plugged into computer):
    - Open Device Manager
    - Right-click your computer name and select "Show Hidden Devices"
    - The top device group should be: Android device(or phone): under it "Android ADB Composite device"
    - Right-click on that and select uninstall
    - Now plug the Kindle back into the computer and let driver re-install


    IF FOR SOME REASON WIFI DOESN'T WORK ON THE FIRST BOOTUP DO THE FOLLOWING:
    Enter Terminal Emulator
    Type: su
    Type: fix-mac.sh
    Exit Terminal Emulator
    Reboot


    THIS ROM SHOWS OFF HOW WELL ICS CAN RUN ON THE KINDLE FIRE.
    ** READY FOR DAILY USE **


    If I had just installed this ROM and I wanted to see something that might not work in the stock-kernel based ICS ROM, then I'd try the following:
    - Install "Chrome Beta" from the market and test it out.
    - Audio is more stable.
    - Launcher is smoother due to full PVR graphic support
    - Try YouTube!

    For user support, look to this thread! Please keep discussion here as to what works and what doesn't, etc.

    I think we can safely agree that the charger driver has issues and it's being worked on. And that each user should ensure that their device charges correctly without the aid of seeing the charging icon in the status bar.

    The details are really irrelevant.

    ONCE AGAIN KEEP IT CIVIL. WHICH MEANS: don't accuse each other of lying, call each other names, or use otherwise inflammatory remarks.

    While rude and insensitive, its also mucking up my thread which is supposed to be a useful resource.

    I say this as someone who religiously pages through almost every thread in this area and often could respond badly to poorly worded kernel demands, etc. It doesn't take much to turn a well intentioned post into something worse. And sometimes its due to language barriers or other issues which are beyond control.

    A thick skin is almost a requirement in any public forum setting.

    /rant

    On a side note the new driver is working with the OS: I get a charging icon when plugging in. Now on to removing the extra battery device, fixing suspend and a pleathora of mode switch issues.

    TEST BUILD #3 IS READY HERE: http://bit.ly/IShcSq

    There are 2 changes for this build:
    - HW Codecs are now working.
    - Kernel included in this build is running "silicon type performance" mode. Meaning it's a stock overclock to 1.2 Ghz. Please test this as well.

    If you have ANY issues with the 1.2 Ghz speed and want to step back down to 1.0 Ghz do the following:
    - Enter "Settings"
    - Choose "Performance" (at the bottom)
    - Click "Ok"
    - Select "Processor" (the first item on the right)
    - Choose "Maximum CPU frequency"
    - Set this to 1008
    - Then check the "Set on boot" option

    DEV NOTES: ROM Build is now fixed so that PVR modules are built with the kernel.
