It doesn't write the sdcard unless you wipe it in the advanced wipe menu

Thanks for the responses.

I wasn't concerned with the data on the tablet because I can get most of it back, so I flashed both the wipe data nobackup and the kinology-aio zip files. When the system booted up I was surprised to see my usual setup. All my data was there and everything was setup the way it had been. Then about five or ten minutes later all the google services apps started crashing (hangouts, google services, google play store, etc., etc.)..

Not sure why the flash didn't seem to do anything (at least the wipe data one didn't). I guess I'll try it again. The first time I was doing other things and wasn't watching the screen all that closely, but it did finish. Thanks for the help. I'm beginning to wonder if it isn't a hardware issue somewhere.

Does doing a full wipe (which wipes data) also wipe the files in the /sdcard directory? I have the installation zips in SDCARD/. I really don't want to lose those. Where is the best place to store those files on the tablet, so they won't be deleted during a wipe? Thanks!

If I were you, I would open TWRP, tap Wipe, go to advancxxed wipe, and check everything except for Internal Storage. This will wipe cache, system, and all data except for /sdcard. You can then go back to Install and install Kinology again.

Just for a final update..after I did the wipe, I could only get to the Kindle Fire splash with fire in blue. After leaving it like that for quite a while, I decided to do a system restore. I had trouble with that too since I had rest my computer to factory defaults and none of the Kindle drivers would work. I was finally able to get fastboot working (I have a cable...thankfully) and after doing a restore twice, my Kindle is back to 7.3.0.

I love Kinology, but I have a feeling there might be some hardware issue going on with my Kindle...so I'll probably leave it on stock for a while. At least I have fastboot working....

Thanks for all the guidance!

Thank you.

I just wanted to say that my experience with Kinology has been about the BEST experience I've ever had with a custom rom. I have to move to a larger unit with LTE and will be abandoning my HD 7 - but wouldn't hesitate to buy an HDX 8.9 IF Kinology was on it. Unfortunately since I'm either stuck with an all Amazon or all all 4.4 tablet - (I'm likely chosing the Galaxy Tab 10), I'll truly miss the seamless flexibility and integration of Kin.

But both developers and the threadsters out here have been unparalleled.

thanks again.

I'm currently running CM12 and was running CM11. As this is still all the way back on ICS is it at all frustrating to not be up to date with android as far as that is concerned?? While typing this I am downloading kinology anyway and will do a backup and then flash kinology just to try personally. Just wondering what makes it so amazing to you??

UPDATE: After installing it I gotta say it seems like the kindle runs smoother.. And it's nice to have the kindle carousel back.

The (unfortunate) answer is in the OP.

Good day: I think one of the primary reasons for 7.4.9 not installing properly due to no room might be that the officesuite is installed as a system app which takes up a larger amount of space. 7.5.1 will not allow root to be installed without some work because of no space. If the office suite is removed prior/during rooting, the process works. Could be a similar issue with 7.4.9? If this is the case and office suite is removed, could Kinology them be updated for 7.4.9. or 7.5.1?

escrimps · Apr 27, 2015

I'm getting a ton of Google services has stopped errors too. Concur that re-install didn't help. Every time the error occurs it has to be acknowledged to keep using Kinology.

Most likely its a gapps issue, there's reports on most kindles with fire os on root. Also happening on my hdx 7" . I believe there's a temporary fix that might work for all. I'll see if I can get a link to it.

Is there a way to force-redo step 1? I started with the Step 1 files and then rebooting to recovery, but my Kindle hung at the blue Kindle fire screen and eventually after 5 minutes or so scrambled to a blue pattern. I've been trying to wipe and reset the system to reflash, but I can not only get the Kinology logo to show and then the screen just fades to black and hangs after a few minutes of spinning around. ADB recognizes the device, but can't connect (also hangs).
I should also mention that I've been running Kinology 3.1 for over a year, but decided to try updating/rolling back after having problems with the Google Play store crashing constantly. I see now that someone has post information on fixing this. (If only I saw that sooner).

Google Play Services crashed too

Here it is another one with the 'Google Play Services' crashing over and one again (really ****ed up!!). As other buddies said before, reinstalling doesn't help at all, so I guess it must be something related to Google apps (maybe and update??).
I'll follow what you say, BuQQzz. I'll tell you back if it helps in KHD7".

Thank you so much for your help!! It's really crazy trying to do anything with the always present enervating pop-up!! :silly:

The solution is to go to the Play Store on the device and uninstall the Google Play Services update by pressing Uninstall. This will resolve the issue. Some people have reported that simply clearing the google play services cache will fix the issue, but for me I had to uninstall the update

5fdprox · Jul 11, 2015

Ahhhh..Thanks so much,im gonna flash again but I dont remember even seeing the update after I had flashed..Ill check back and let you know,thanks for your time!!!!

I tried many different "fixes" that I found here and across the web, clearing cache & data, re-installing the ROM w/o wifi enabled so I could get in and try to stop Google Play Store and Play Store Services from auto updating when I went live, installing an old gapps package, dropping the Google account and reinitializing it, etc. I could not keep Play Services from automatically updating and starting the endless parade of "Play Services has stopped" errors. Now, get ready for this . . .

The solution to stopping the error is going back one level from this thread and installing Hashcode's CM 12 ROM (Lollypop 5.1.1) and saying good bye to Kinology forever. Whatever Google did to screw up the Play Store several weeks ago is not going to be fixed and there's no work-around that will solve it for everyone.

I have a Sero 7 Pro tablet and what ever Google did made it unable to update or install apps on the tablet, from the store or side-loaded. Everything gives a "Package file is invalid" error. So, never update or install a new app or find a Lollypop ROM, of which there are two available but LP does not play nicely with Mounts2SD and DK_zero_cool has pretty much stopped supporting it.

FidiS · Jul 27, 2015

I followed the instructions from http://xdaforums.com/kindle-fire-hd...y-services-7-3-28-stopping-t3086528?nocache=1

You have to downgrade the google play services and prevent the automatic update for them.
The fix works already for over a moth on my KFHD7 with no crashes.
