Can you test this on a galaxy s ??

Lol, really? There are thousands here like you. Just look on the development forum, install a ROM of your choice, and report back on whatever issues you have. No one here beta tests privately.

Hi all ,
Why there is no MIUI ICS ROM for Kindle Fire ?
It's Fast and smooth and already have a lot of fans
is there any problems in porting it to Kindle Fire ?

MIUI is not tablet friendly. There has been work on one, but the thing just doesn't look as polished as CM9 or AOKP, which are 100000% more better than having a phone OS on our devices.
While I definitely wouldn't recommend MIUI, there is in fact a decent version of MIUI for kindle fire.

spekdro,
Do you really want to do this, CM10 is VERY green at the moment on the Kindle Fire HD 8.9" so we do not recommend flashing the Kindle Fire HD 8.9" or the HD 7". If you have to use CM10, I say good luck, you will need to be very patient, the OS is far from stable. We had a copy on our internal 8.9" and removed it after 1 hour, it was that bad.
If you must, say I will take the unstable version and we will post the instructions for you via PM. They are very challenging, not like a regular Android. This is why we do not post the how to yet.
You will need to have an understanding on how to build a raw CM10 Kernel and have a Linux computer that has all the CyanogenMod build dependencies. If you do not own a Linux PC you are out of luck at the moment.
This is not end-user friendly yet - not a bit. If you don't know how to compile CM10 yourself, you are not a target audience for this current CM10 build. Many things don't work on this ROM therefore the ROM is NOT viable to use for the general XDA audience.
Is a install stable cynam blabla but u say is not good is fine i install the aapp play and i happy jejeje but am waiting for stable custom rom for this table jeje and i haved the linux computer and windows jejje but thank anyway

spekdro,
We will post in the Android Development part of XDA once we have a stable ROM.
Hi guys,
I know it may/may not be rooted yet. But if possible I would like a system dump from the new Kindle Fire HD 7" (2013).
Or at the very least a .zip of /system/etc/firmware and /system/vendor/firmware
Thanks!

Thanks Maromi!
And I realize that Amazon has the software update up on their site.
SO I'm downloading the entire file from there.
Is it possible to root the new Kindle Fire HD 7" (2013)?
Thanks

Hi,
I have the same question. I have the 11.3.0.3 firmware and am an android user. Can the new kindle with this firmware be rooted? Thanks in advance,
Pete

hey hash, did you stop working in the kindle fire hd? your last message was 1-2 months ago !
They (Amazon) advert the new Kindle Fire HD(2013) with a Dual-Core 1,5 GHz , Fire OS 3.0 "Mojito"(android 4.3 as the HDX) and new hardware without camera. You can see in the pictures that the USB is at the right side of the narrower and lighter frame, not down. There is no trace of HDMI out. Only one WIFI antenna.
It can share the same 7.4.7 firmware, but is a different or cut out hardware.
Edit: it doesn't share firmware, it has its own 11.3.0.3. one. This has happened to me for not reading....

Hi Pete (or someone else),
if you have New Kindle HD 7" (2013) (non HDX),
can You please check kernel version of your device (settings/about/kernel).
Thx in advance, Nenad

Ok, thanks.
From the Amazon source (http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=200203720):
VERSION = 3
PATCHLEVEL = 4
SUBLEVEL = 34
EXTRAVERSION =

So, I believe this is first OMAP 4 device with stock 3.4 kernel.

which might explain the lack of hdmi out, mimo wifi, camera, and mic
So are people still working on being able to get Android on this tablet?
The most likely situation is porting and streamlining the previous generation devices to the 3.4 kernel(beneficial to all omap kindle fires)
And at least find some kinda of way to root current gen
As for other roms(ie cm) on current gen that's gonna take a long time.
Also be happy that at least your current ROM is jellybean based.

This will be a pretty big challenge. Qualcomm don't goof around when it comes to security. I don't know if there has ever been an item not exploited by the folks at XDA but this one will not be easy. I think it was close to a year before the 2012 generations were exploited.

This not for the hdx's. This is for the HD 2013. Its not qcom. Its TI. its interesting because no other consumer omap device has been officially on the 3.4 kernel.
And it was 4 months for the 2012's but that was luck on fattire for fnding the bootloader exploit and hashcode's previous dev on the original kindle fire that made it quick(I know there was Cm10 ROM in DEC but that was more of proof than functionality.)
How many months after release before a fully functioning (not half sort of functioning) ROM was available for the KFHD? That's what counts. And I mean custom not hybrid.

You are correct. This may be the first and only set of devices w/ an OMAP 3.4 Android kernel.
For what it's worth, here's what I've been doing on the 3.4 kernel:
https://github.com/KFire-Android/kernel_omap_otter-common/commits/p-android-omap-3.4
And there's no end in site yet. :/ The kernel sources used on the KFHD 2013 (named "soho") don't seem to be finished for the other devices (jem / tate). Tho that may change if/when Amazon rolls out the new OS to the older HD's. So until that happens I get to debug debug debug. Right now many of the major systems seem to be functional on Jem, but I'm seeing video issues that will need to be worked through.
Also, the 3.4 kernel uses a new framebuffer / hwcomposer setup for dual display which needs to be ported into the current AOSP/CM/etc sources.
Adding to the complication is wifi firmware. The new kernel uses a much higher revision of BCMDHD source and for that I will need updated firmware from Amazon most likely.
So while I'm currently working to unify all 5 Kindle's under 1 3.4 kernel, there probably won't be any usable builds for quite some time.

I'm not sure it's really full functioning even today
I was curious who I would ask to get permission to port AOKP and what steps and/or guidelines need to be taken. Thank you.
Sent from my Kindle Fire HD running a Personal AOKP Ported Rom
AOKP is open source, so no permission is needed.
Thanks for the info I just wanted to ask before I attempted anything.

Just try a device with similar specs! It's easy...
