Gosh! Is the locked bootloader so much of a problem? I cannot believe that a kindle has so less development(No offence)! Im used to billions of roms on the kindle fire 1

Maybe they are just happy with CyanogenMod. ;)
Though BlackBean 9 didn't make the list and I did one build of Omni 4.3 and Carbon 4.4 seems to be working fine and I have Omni 4.4 compiling now :good:

Yes it is. Many people brick their devices trying to install the second bootloader.

We are very lucky to have the devs we do. I'm starting to see the same issues with Samsung devices as well.

Unfortunately the device manufacturers are starting to get really good at locking the boot.

Aren't there any manufacturers that make quality tablets that don't pull that crap so that we can call for boycotts of those that do?

And it would be great to find other ways to attack those corporate control freaks in ways that cost them lots and lots of money. ('Anonymous', where are you?)

Well.. After sugar ants ate the inside of my kf2 I bought a nexus 7... Unlockable by design. You can use multiboot and run all the Roms you have space for.

I'm very happy. You can probably get one on the cheap somewhere since a new nexus device is rumored. I paid $199 full price for the 16gb version.
