1- Yes, Hashcode is currently working on CM10.1 And the custom kernel for KFHD is on hashcode's current projects list, but no one can provide you with an ETA
http://blog.hash-of-codes.com/current-projects/
2- Persano's tweaks are great, what you will notice right away is that start-up/boot time is significantly lower, applications start faster, CPU demanding games will be a bit faster, better internet speed, and other things.
3- No idea
4- Theoretically yes, But it will take sometime and even if it is completed it will be pointless since hashcode should be done porting CM10.1 to KFHD sometime soon.
5- Again, updating TWRP is on hashcode's current projects list, But don't ask for an ETA

thanks, so only question 3 have to be asked, i want to know who won the kindle fire hd, i saw a lot of score and i think who won or who have to won, he said that the winner will receive one, and the thread was no more replied, i dont want to think that was a lie or false

Prokennexusa states in the op of that thread that the contest will be over a 6 month period. The op was posted on 12/28/12. It also states that "We may offer a Nexus 7".

holefon, the contest will finish in 3 months more, so dont be inpatien , i m too inpatient, like all, i want to win, but if i not i wont be sad, i will be happy if that man that win share with us what he use and what he modified to his kindle so it can be that "fast", i say "fast" because antutu is hardware and not tweaks

Not really a big job considering its based on the AOSP source. In all reality its just porting the main launcher onto the code. You can use all the proprietaries from cm.

why not, just cause you dont want to have it doesnt mean others will, its all about choices when it comes to android and the more choices we have the better our experience will be
I'd do it...if only to show the flexibility of the NC. Still have no interest in actually BUYING a Kindle Fire though. Still enjoying CM7
I'm gonna try and port it through android kitchen (no guarantees though), this sounds like a great idea to me. Someone with more experience dev'ing should try it as well.
Any luck guys...the launcher on cm7 force closes for me
Sent from my Inspire 4G using xda premium
A bit off topic, but If your launcher is FCing, try launcher pro instead. It works for me on CM7 sd install, and rooted stock.
You could also try an older cm7 install.
As for the fire, I would play with it out of curiosity, but I like the rooted stock for everyday use.

I see, sorry. I was wondering how that would work.
Not knowing much about the system, would you need it to sync to the cloud? If yes, authentication could be a serious issue.
Does it allow non market installs, and can it go to the market?
I am not sure I would be interested if it cannot do these two things. If it could, it may be amusing, but it would have to be silky smooth for me to consider it a prime OS. Since the hardware is significantly slower on the nook, I am betting it is a no go, but that is just conjecture.

The work done actually looks like a port of the apks. The fires UI runs on top of the galaxies UI so CPU and all that doesn't matter. It's just implementing the framework that's the problem.

[request] MIUI ROM

I would really like to get a good reason to replace my nook color with a kindle fire, and i've noticed that the kindle fire has already seen tastes of CM7 and ICS (WITHIN A MONTH! ), but the one that would push it over the top would be the MIUI rom. Is there a developer that could work on this?
MIUI is not Open Source, so we'll have to see.
I'm getting the device for Christmas... so if its not started by then ill work on it ....

CM7 is pretty much fully working now

I thought that Amazon Video was still not working.

I've not used MIUI, but from what I've read it seems to be designed with phone usage in mind. What are the benefits in having it on the Kindle?

[Q] Why does everyone use Paranoid?

So i've hesitated on rooting for a while now, but i finally did today. Now i'm looking for some good roms to flash, and i notice that a lot of N7 owners use PA. I want to know why? I tried CM10 and its pretty cool
Eh. I didn't like it. I had to RMA my tablet because the touchscreen was bein' cray.
But the interface of the rom? 10 points. Amazing. So fluent... it is a hybrid ROM that let's you use the tablet in tablet ui. And switch between stock, tablet, and phablet. I loved it.
Tldr;I hated it. I loved it.

The best thing to do is read the op for the pa rom and note the features it lists. All roms have their features listed to help you decide. Also, read other users comments within the thread to see what they are saying. It is all there waiting for you to read.
And for future reference, questions belong in the Q&A sub forum, not general.

I agree. PA has never felt as stable for me as CM. And I find that I prefer my tablet in portrait mode now, so I don't care about hybrid apps (plus the mail ones like email work proudly now)

I just tried it out and it was really unstable for something I would use everyday. I use SmoothROM and it is really stable. I put tablet UI and its perfect for my preference. It's all up on what people really want from their Nexus I guess.

Gotta disagree, as mods have gone on record stating that something such a that is outside of the scope of the Dev forum and against the rules. Replies in those threads are supposed to be limited to those relevant to development of the rom, such as bug reports. Asking a question of this nature in a Dev thread is only going to make it harder for folks to find relevant info in the thread.

I've been running PA on my N7 for a while now. Had 2.54 (the last 'stable' release) on my old 16GB and it was great. When I broke that one I got the 32GB and the first thing I flashed was PA 2.99 beta. Now running the 14-01-2013 beta build and for me its flawless. I love tablet UI and the ability to change the layout of individual apps and to set DPI to 160. PA Colours let's you choose custom colours for Nav bar, buttons etc. Its smooth and stable. Its like another device entirely. I even bought their Preferences Pro app to support the project and I'm eagerly awaiting P.A. 3
Combined with M-Kernel a30 and Trickster Mod I'm running at 1.9Ghz Max CPU and 600mhz GPU.
Its beastly. NFS:MW flies! Lol

This is a known fault. Its easily sorted by installing a 3rd party launcher although I believe it is fixed in the new build (which I'm just about to flash)

Firefox OS for Kindle Fire

Is there by any chance we will get to ever see the Firefox OS on the kindle fire? Firefox OS will be released on Mid-2013 and is there by any chance will a developer will work on this OS? It would Bree awesome if we get this ported to the kindle fire, after all it is made to run on ARM processors.

I was looking into it and it doesn't look hat to build it for the kindle at all. Once I he a new computer next week ill try it out. (Testers?)
And it doesn't need nearly as much power of Ubuntu. It can function on a lot less, it's made for new low end devices.
That would be very cool to see run on the kindle. Would make me thing about getting one for my self
It would be very nice to see it run, it sucks that im not good at editing kernels though

Don't be so sure about that. It has recently been discovered that Ubuntu uses CM10 as it's base for Android devices. Hashcode's kernel has made this device much faster and much more capable than it was ever intended to be so it's not too hard to imagine, after the bugs are ironed out for the official full release, that it could be ported to the Kindle Fire rather easily and without too much of a drop in performance.

Another t thing is of this is a OS for Low-End Devices(-$200), then could this have some Enhancements, I mean the Kindle Fire came from a OS(v.2.3) that was for Low-End devices, so maybe it will run smoothly.
Sent from my Amazon Kindle Fire using xda app-developers app
Firefox OS is being primarily developed for under developed countries and so for low end devices in mind (so I read). If this is true, I would imagine that it would be screaming fast on a Kindle Fire.
Wouldn't mind playing with it if someone could figure out how to make a ROM for it.
I'm up to see it on the Kindle also. I don't particularly care for the concept of web based apps but if they make stand alone HTML5 software w/o a data connection required, that'd be sweet.
Same here. I been trying to get the Linux on Android app to work and its not work for me. So a Ubuntu on table would be awesome.

Firefox OS is currently being ported to the Kindle Fire HD7 and from the looks of it, we'll start seeing alpha releases within the next week or so. I'm not sure if there are any plans to bring it to the KF1, but I imagine it wouldn't be that hard to make it happen.

Well, one step at a time. First get it to work, then dual boot is the next step.
Finally, it might be possible to run them "together", for example running CM apps in Ubuntu Touch.
I mean by transforming the base Android system into a fully-fledged CM and connect it up to Ubuntu.
Not sure that is feasible yet, but there might be a chance. And it is sure a while down the road.

Really disappointed that it's only a "skin" on top of CM10.1, proper ubuntu is what we need, to actually run linux apps but still, every advancement is positive but I'm not interested in another android port, I like jelly bean as it is, AOSP ftw.

It's not running on top of CM10.1 is running on top of the CM10.1 kernel (and some drivers for the hardware) and I wouldn't say it's fair to call that a "skin". That's like calling every linux distro a linux skin.
true, my frasing is wrong but it doesn't change the fact that it's not capable of running linux apps, it's just another take on android, and on a tablet such as this I'd love to be able to dual-boot into android/linux, let's see where archlinux will take us but with the way things are changing and people upgrading to newer devices this will be left behind as well eventually, and to think that since the first quad core device a year ago today we call the tegra 3 a low-powered chipset compared to the powerhouses coming out, and people still don't have a quad core cpu at their home pcs and laptops, anyway, offtopic, let's see...
as far as I heard from many different people now it is just something to show the skin as main features like wallpaper, rotation and others aren't working yet although they should... Basically I would prefer a dualboot solution with stock ubuntu and android, but just my personal opinion...
