Amazon Kindle Fire with CyanogenMod 7 Android

[thedarkdomino]

Why is a dual core tablet so fucking laggy? Especially with CyanogenMod?

Something has to be wrong here.

[RayRai8262]

@thedarkdomino 512ram thats why.

[PyroTibbs]

Thanks a lot for your tutorial! I installed it just fine with your instructions, but was wondering: is there a way to change the icon size? They're pretty small.

[Nezar071]

Good fire

[jadebug2010]

Hello.

[myst1cpr3dator]

does the flash player work? and when you install do you lose all apps and stuff? plz reply...

[MrDuncanMike]

Does the bluetooth work?

[TheOnixHD]

question: is your amazon account still on the kindle after you do this?

[Shahabk818]

Does flash player work?

[TheScarredPhoenix]

Okay, so when you do this you lose all your apps and books?

[MeDmAnQcA]

@TheScarredPhoenix yes, the apps you bought are still linked to your google account and your book are still linked to your amazon account so you just have to redownload them.

[shortround8484]

@leemurta can you please provide a link so i can find where to download the CM7 files for the kindle fire since everything seems to be working now?

[moviesandtrailers]

damnn..so i cant listen to music?

[leemurta]

@moviesandtrailers theres a new version now that audio does work on.

[TheJasperkitty]

Hello! You can buy a 7" tablet with real Android Gingerbread CHEAPER than the Fire. This is as stupid as rooting an iPad. Both are designed to just work and little shitheads have to show thay can fuck up a working device. What retards.

[johnston336]

@TheJasperkitty

rofl, just rofl

[hoan999999]

Force close = language set to Hd

[robocopvn]

Everything works properly . . . almost lolz :X :X

[berighteous]

CM7 has audio now on the Kindle fire. Yay. Another developer picked up where the first one left off and got the sound and some other features working.

[babygotaids]

question : will installing stock android will prevent the kindle fire from updating itself ?!

[BradLinder]

@babygotaids Yes, because this completely replaces Amazon's software. 

[TheZacKall]

I think everything its amazing smooth! or its in my mind?

[Micahfan4]

When do you think audio will be working with the mod?

[BradLinder]

@Micahfan4 It could be a while. The developer responsible for porting CM7 says he's not really working on audio for CM7 right now, and instead focusing on CM9 (Android 4.0). Hopefully *that* version will have audio when it's available.

[BeastlyRig]

@BradLinder so this will have me be able to ugrade my android continually?

[1976poker]

@ Chrisa- I know I don't have to watch it! I wanted to see a video demonstrating the Kindle Fire. This was on the youtube homepage!!!! So it was the first one I clicked on. Atleast change the title so it's not MISLEADING

[1976poker]

Audio would be nice AHAHAAAAHAAA good one Jeepio, I agree

[1976poker]

@Chrisa- I wasn't talking to you. Just stating the obvious. Nice that you took it upon yourself to call me names, now that's childish. Like I give a flying f***. LMAO. Yeah your right, this video is awesome. HAHAHAAAAAAA

[jeepio29]

i feel like audio is a pretty big thing to be missing. not even worth it then

[1976poker]

What is the point of altering the operating system if none of it works? Oh my god, what is wrong with people. lmao

[eaterz11]

@1976poker because some devices are cheaper. I have an HP Touchpad running CM7 and runs with no problems. By the way, the tablet was $100! So that's big savings right there compared to a $300 to $500 Android tablet.

[1976poker]

Why didn't you call this video "How to show a kindle fire not working" You wasted 80,000 people's time by thinking this is informative. This is the first video on the youtube homepage for Kindle Fire. Take it off so you don't waste anyone else's time. Thanks

[chrisaflores998]

@1976poker

No one forced you too watch it. just because you dont like this video doesnt mean others don't. People like looking at these videos for reason. Your ignorant kid.

[gjzlionl]

Get a Mac...

[ArrowtoKneeteeheehee]

My kindle tablet used to be on fire,but then...Take That! Arrow to the Knee! Tee hee hee

[SavySavant]

I think this guy probably needs to change the Language to English(US) or Generic under Settings>Language & Keyboard. Wrong language causes force closes...

XDA 101

[zachingves]

Is there talks of them integrating audio functionality in it?

[soccerprohb]

does it have to be rooted?

[zakalwe30]

@26keys2011 No, this is a way to buy an android tablet for $199. Ipads have different form factors and operating systems.

[DavidAngelMedina]

Seems like a waste of MONEY.

[SibteinTv]

nice

[quiquedcode]

is there a project page where we could follow progress of ICS in the Kindle Fire? thanks

[l0l907]

hummm.... only worth its price I guess

[VicentiuB]

[iTube145]

Just buy an android tablet like the rest of the world

[JDMooneyclan]

[BrockAlexander]

[blasterLA24]

[MrDrogsten]

[j0se007]

its only had cm for 2 weeks, so everyone relax.

thanks for this video!

[BrOkeNaLiBi100]

boring,,,

[toshineon]

@WhoWillSaveTheSane Nah, open customization > closed OS.

[sanwar1]

ONE thing that doesn't work is the audio?!?!?!?! Kind of an important thing, wouldn't you say?

[porker87]

@WhoWillSaveTheSane why?

[NitroGadvRules]

Try enabling 16bit transparency in performance options. It makes things smoother on a lot of phones.

[KronJeremi2005]

I have to say, I work for Kindle support, if anyone uses this mod as far as support goes, your gonna be in the dark, we cannot support anything other than what Amazon has set up originally..

[adiehl777]

@KronJeremi2005 DUH. That's what XDA is for...

[erkkinit]

@KronJeremi2005 Thank you, captain obvious.

[kiddox123]

Im planning to get this for christmas and it looks Fantastic! I heard the price was about 200?

~Steve 

[NardBlake]

I was going to use this mod for my kindle fire, but then i took a arrow to the knee.

[iLikeCookingWithAri]

@NardBlake thats getting so old bro

[SwingAdamRap]

how does he say ice cream sandwich and not laugh?!

[mrjoshua1983]

Can the Kindle Fire use Blackboard?

[svdeals]

[SP2D3RM3N]

[ValenciaPro]

Amazing, I'm speechless you installed CM7 on this tablet

[krazykipa]

The Android Market FC can often be fixed by changing your language from "Hd(United States)" to an actual language in Settings.

[UnlimitedWireles]

*vid

[UnlimitedWireles]

great video review can you do a rooting bid I have rooted alot of phones but the KF looked messyyy

[kas130771]

is it worth it to get a kindle fire for $200 for hacking it and running cyanogenmod/android on it in the future?

[greengear5]

Thank you for making this video! It was really useful

[GeckoMoria94]

Nice. I have a few questions?

Is the dual core processor in the kindle a modified version of a qualcomm or purely designed by TE? Is 720/1080p playback (mkv) possible? Could you run some benchmarks with cm7 please?

Thanks man :D

[SiLzAzSyH]

@GeckoMoria94 The processor is an OMAP 4430. Same processor as in the Razr, Bionic..etc. Pretty sure at least 720 is, dunno bout 1080.

[faultiermaennchen]

Nice Video. Still thinking about putting the Cyanogen Mod on my Kindle Fire here in Germany...

[Saltydko]

Is this gonna get ICS Rom with android market installed in the future

[BradLinder]

@Saltydko The developer is working on ICS... The Android Market is something you'll probably have to install on your own, for licensing reasons.

[noreason2701]

@BradLinder IK this is probably stupid... but did you do the market fix that is sometimes needed to make the market work right before you did this video?

[BradLinder]

@noreason2701 Nope. But after shooting this video I installed Market version 3.3.1 and now it works perfectly.
