(Sorry if a double post happens.)

Honestly, as long as it's easy for you to upload, and I'm able to download, I'm okay with it.

OK, here's all the stuff I used:

Buggered if I can remember how it all went together, but this is all the stuff in my "Kindle Fire" folder that I used and saved. Hope it helps someone!

Thanks so much, you are truly a delight.

Thankfully there are step-by-step videos still up on YouTube. I'm going to try those.

Somehow broke KFU on my own computer. Trying to not mess it up on my brother's right now. >_<

Can't download ROM

I would like to update my Kindle Fire to this ROM but for whatever reason I can not download it. Please help! TIA

AOSP JELLY BEAN 4.2.2_r1

Also included are some optimizations by Texas Instruments and the result is a BLAZING OS running on what is now considered an out-dated memory model (512MB RAM).
Most OMAP 512MB devices are not supported by their OEM vendors past Gingerbread (LG may be an upcoming exception).

This ROM represents exactly what is being pushed to Nexus 10/7 owners. Now you can join in the fun too!

WHAT'S NEW IN ANDROID 4.2
See for yourself: http://www.android.com/whatsnew/
(Note that we don't have a camera or NFC so some of these are obviously not going to work for us)

[2013/02/12] Download 4.2.2_r1 ROM here
md5sum: f4cc5efb6de779da93670fb48a794d64

PLUS YOU WILL NEED TO FLASH GAPPS AFTER
Jelly Bean 4.2 Gapps here (CM10.1)
(use top row CM10.1 link for 12/12)

WHAT WORKS
(Basically, most items I tested work, except I couldn't get the new swype-style input going on the keyboard)

• [02/12] AOSP 4.2.2_r1
• [01/22] Updated with new 3.0.50 kernel including better battery life
• [01/22] Newest PVR/Imgtec graphics binaries
• [01/22] Update wifi firmware to R5.SP3.06
• [12/18] Fixed battery deep sleep
• [12/18] Added multi-user login fix mentioned by NotShorty found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2018146
• Hardware Acceleration (hwcomposer)
• HD Codecs (YouTube/Netflix)
• Small amount of OTG (some devices w/ powered hub supported)
• Sound, but no microphone

NOT WORKING

• Bootanimation needs a display bugfix
• Need to enable the swype-style 4.2 keyboard
• I'll check out photo sync options
• Looking into USB camera support (will probably be more useful when the 3.4 kernel is ready)

REQUIREMENTS

1. Should be running FireFireFire Bootloader 1.4a found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1632375
2. Have a custom recovery installed, such as TWRP 2.2.x.x+ or Cannibal Open Touch: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2025793
3. Easy method for both -> Use Smirkit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1500935

INSTALLATION
RECOMMEND FULL WIPE UNLESS UPDATING A 4.2 ROM Use Titanium Backup to restore apps.

1. Download the ZIP
2. Grab the GAPPS (12/12 from goo.im/gapps)
3. Reboot into recovery
4. Make your backup (You do make a backup right?)
5. Wipe Data/Cache)
6. Flash both the ROM and the gapps .zip files
7. Reboot and Enjoy

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

• Q: Does this include the new 3.4 kernel? A: No, it's not ready yet.
• Q: Where's the "Developer" settings menu? A: Go into Settings -> About tablet, and tap the "Build number" box about 7 times. That enables it.

BUILDING THIS ROM
[ It's a rough build. Probably not going to update the public manifest ]

Enjoy

Thank you for posting this dude, after hours of searching i finally found one that works. The first link i followed was called "[Root][TWRP][COTR][BOOTLOADERS]Kindle Fire Utility v0.9.9 (4/5/13) [1st Gen Only!]" and all but one of the links ended up being a very virus ridden download, ended up spending several hours cleaning up the fallout from that. Thank you again, working great on mine!

Thanks you so much for posting this and keeping these links active this long. I spent half the day getting my KF 1 ready to flash only to spend more hours searching for active links to the 4.2.2 ROM and GApps that I needed. I was finally able to finish my project of running Headunit Reloaded on my long dormant Kindle Fire Gen 1.
