Hello,

CM-11 needs no introduction. This is for the Kindle Fire HDX 8.9" called Apollo. You need an unlocked bootloader or have TWRP signed recovery installed.

Ignore the /data remount error, the firmware flash will succeed given enough time.

Installed, first impressions are just WOW... Impressive work @ggow, thanks!

Pretty smooth I must say ... since wifi and bluetooth is not working I just (for fun) restored over CM11 my data nandroid backup from nexus 2.0.5, few FC (nothing serious): 99% apps just working, xposed working too, games are excellent, smooth, headphones are working :), i played very shortly some videos through default player - no problems there...

Edit: rear camera is making some strange noises when focusing and tablet is gently vibrating (!) when sound appear, so is probably not safe to use rear camera for now ...

New build with working WiFi .

geez mate, I JUST finished downloading and flashing the first build and you put this up!

Anyway, both front and rear cameras work a treat for photo, video and audio... rear camera has trouble with autofocus after doing it once or twice (as jeryll mentioned).

Earphones working great although there were some random pops and clicks here and there even when nothing was being done.

Now to flash the new build! cheers!

Oh hell yes. I was going to use the Magic beans one, but I got "bricked" my s4(Gmail constantly stopping, couldn't use ROM, Safestrap Deleted, no Root). I really need to downgrade my damned bootloader...

Just have a quick tried. It is very smooth. I installed xposed and it works. I also installed Microsoft Excel and Word which needs android 4.4 or above. It is amazing good. Thanks.
