First of all you may have to have Play store installed, unless you can find any of the apps I mention in this thread from different sources. UPDATE: I found one of the apps that is need for this tutorial below at 1mobile.com link will be below. For more info on that search around the threads or visit my kindle fire HDX setup thread. It is targeted for the 7" model but you may be able to download these apps from 1mobile.com on the 8.9" or on a 7" that doesn't have play store.
So, first off, I installed a app from play store called recent apps quick button, which basically activates android's recent apps, I havent found another (legal) link to this besides playstore so please share if you do. then I installed a app from play store called Home2 shortcut, here's a link to Home2 shorcut on 1mobile, I haven't confirmed it works on default ROM so let me know your findings! this lets you assign the resent apps quick button to double tapping the home button so now when i double tap the home button it brings me to recent apps. It's really nice since kindles default Rom doesn't have a recent apps button! let me know what you think and if i works for people without a different launcher (I use ADW launcher). post any questions you have in this thread.
