I think he knows about CM12 for Tate. I wasn't aware that Jem had a mic issue.

Hi Guys, first of all thank you hashcode for all the hard work made on this device. I have a problem now with my Kindle.. I ve been using this rom without any problem unti yesterday when my Kindle started to switch off when battery is below 50% AND wifi is on. I thought it was a problem of battery calibration (since if device is plugged in charge, it works normally). So i calibrated battery but nothing... It shuts down. I tried also a factory reset and clean install but didn t work either. Any suggestion? Do you think could be an hardware problem? If wifi is disabled i can use it no matter battery level...

 

[mrkhigh]

I wonder if it is simply the battery not being able to output enough amperage drain anymore causing voltage to go below acceptable limits...

This would make sense since with Wi-Fi on it has a higher drain.

The shelf life on these batteries are probably due to see some failures.

Thank you for the answer. My device is only one year old.. I m surprised it has already this kind of problem. Probably i can send it to warranty... But first i need to put it stock again and i don t know if it is possibile...

I have 2 kindles, both bought around the same time, yet one of them has this symptom. It began with below 50 it would power off... Then no matter the battery level it wouldn't stay on for more than a few minutes. If its connected to a charger it'll stay on and work normally. Its most likely a battery issue ?

Completely possible there are a few threads in the Dev section for stock kindle via twrp or adb.

I have had several tablets now that start acting flaky when the battery level drops down to the 50% level.
I was pretty sure the battery should be OK since logically, the battery should work until it goes down really low.
A weak battery would simply not stay charged long and start to go low more quickly (e.g., 1 hour to 10% versus 3 hours to 10%).
In these cases, the battery may be at 50% but, then the tablet either reboots, or the apps start acting up and start doing strange things.
I thought it was just a poorly made motherboard but, I did have someone else tell me they had several kindles over the last few years and several of them starting acting oddly after a while and would shut down or reboot randomly and most of the time have the battery life diminish rapidly over time. I have two 7" tablets now on my desk, I have marked as flaky.... I also have a badly cracked tablet I use regularly for a couple of years now that is as solid as Fort Knox.

You have to remember the kindle turns off the device not the battery, if the curve does not act linear it is possible for it to rapidly discharge at a certain point. Lithium batteries act a little odd in charge and discharge

how long should it take to boot into CM11 once you reboot for the first time after loading it up in TWRP? It sat all last night at the screen with the blue face and arrow going around in circles. I don't think it would qualify as a boot loop, as it never restarts (as far as I can see) it just sits on the 'booting' screen forever. I put this exact version on my son's kindle fire hd 7" about 6 months ago and it worked fine. I'm now putting in on my daughters kfhd7 with all the exact files I used before and it's not booting up. I'm actually on my second time thru the process and same result.

flashing: cm-11-20141109-NIGHTLY-tate.zip

Fixed it. I just turned the unit off, got back into TWRP and reloaded CM11 again and it started right up.

Thanks,

J

Anyone get Plants vs. Zombies 2 to work on Kindle Fire HD 7"? I can install it from the Play store but when it starts up I see the PopCap logo then get the black screen and music. I'm currently running:
gapps-kk-20140606-signed.zip
cm-11-20150119-NIGHTLY-tate.zip

Thanks,

Jeremiah

I believe this issue has been said to be on Popcap's end with PvZ2. Been a while since I've had the game installed, but one of the fixes/workarounds I previously tested to work was to use an app like NOMone Resolution Changer and set resolution to 1280x768 and dpi to 160.

Anyone still using CM11 on their KFHD7's?

Just wondering how stable the M12 build is or nightly builds are?
I'm still on M11 & facing no major issues so wondering whether it's worth updating.

From what I can tell after a certain build (Maybe around M10?) no Tate specific fixes were pushed & after that any changes in builds were purely aimed towards fixing stuff in CM11 which may or may not break device related stuff.

I ended up going back to CM11. I had an issue with idle battery drain being very high even with no apps installed, and for me performance seemed a fraction better on CM11

*Edit* It actually looks like I went back to CM10.2

M12 runs fine though, you are probably right with it just being CM cleaning up the code. But you could just dirty flash it on top. Cant hurt

Why Tamper With Amazon Fire?

I really don't see why anyone would buy a Kindle Fire and flash it with Cyanogenmod? I mean, you wanted a device to read books and consume some media as well which the Kindle Fire is very much capable of doing. So why put Cyanogenmod in it and dwell with a truck load of bugs? No offense here, but the Amazon guys have pumped so much money into making this hardware and device specific tweaked android software using best in class developers and engineers, why tamper with it? They know what they were doing and pretty good at it. I don't buy this story of pushing Cyanogenmod inside this device which performs much better with it own OS. I having Cyanogenmod running in a couple of my devices that originally carried GB OS. Cyanogenmod makes sense in such scenarios, certainly not in this case.

I actually bought my Kindle because it had Cyanogenmod. I did not dare to even touch Fire OS as it was useless and not appealing to the eye in my opinion. FireOS is based on Jellybean (correct me if I am wrong) and out of the box, did not allow me to use the Play Store. I had to use the Amazon App Store, which did have a decent amount of apps but not all of them. Cyanogenmod fixed that for me, making a $100 tablet feel like a Nexus 7. Many, like me look on XDA before I go out and buy a new device. The Kindle popped to my head because it was cheap and a perfect size. I saw it had Cyanogenmod and voila! Bought it. Cyanogenmod is also for those who want a pure android experience, AOSP in that matter. Also, with developers like Hashcode, they are able to bring the latest and greatest android software to us like Android 5.0 (Cyanogenmod 12). Amazon would've taken a buttload of time to create a new UI for it.. With the bugs, what bugs do you see? Cyanogemod 11 is pretty stable AFAIK. If you are here to complain that Amazon pumps a whole bunch of money into a device, why are they using Android as a base for FireOS then? If they have that much money, they should completely make their own OS from scratch. Android was made to be Open, therefore we see Cyanogenmod and many others that can replace FireOS.

It's not as much as the "why" as it is the "what". It's really fun to tweak out devices such as this and see what we can do with them.

It was the highest spec for the buck at the time... It's also friggin tough, my 38 year old brother broke his nexus, my 4 year old daughter beat and abused this device with no harm... Also... What bugs? It works well.
