It won't work. Governors need to be added to the kernel in source

persano,
Yes Governors are a function of the Linux Kernel, it can not be done to the factory boot.img due to the constraints with the current Kernel.
Here is what you would do to build and pack a Kernel:
How To Build Kernel Step 1: Make sure you are running Linux, or else it won't work. So the current Kindle Kernel is out.
How To Build Kernel Step 2: Download the source code from either source.android.com, sonymobile.com (for a stock kernel), kernel.org or FXP github for FXP Kernel.
How To Build Kernel Step 3: unpack the source code from one of the above sources
How To Build Kernel Step 4: make changes to the source code you want to (i.e. adding in governors or io schedulers) - example here
How To Build Kernel Step 5: Build the source (note: the defconfig is probably different you'll have to check the /arch/arm/config folder to figure out which ones is the FXP one...) - Example here
How To Build Kernel Step 6: Make it into a boot img as noted here: Sony Developer Site
How To Build Kernel Step 7: Try booting, if it works, check to make sure that the changes you made sticked. If it doesn't boot, well, you can ask questions in this thread or send us a PM, we do this almost daily.
There are many "tricks of the trade" that we would love to share with you. First attempt to build and pack your own, then when you have issues let us know.:good:
Our new software will automate much of the above process, this feature is due to be added Mid march of 2013. Most of our ROM's will be Ubuntu based.

BUILDING THIS ROM:
First, read through Google's Android website about "how to setup a build environment":
http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html
Then you can setup the Kindle Fire by doing the following:
mkdir android
cd android
(Use main repo for CyanogenMod 10.1)
repo init -u https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android -b cm-10.1
repo sync
vendor/cm/get-prebuilts
. build/envsetup.sh && brunch otter2

So does the mic input not work At all or is it off and on?

The MIC needs some kernel changes in the sound driver.

It was taking me to the gapps page on goo.im (which was intended), but I went ahead and edited it to be the latest file.

Been running since the first un-offical builds, been running the offical for a few weeks now, been running like a charm.
Just an FYI, On my device when I try to reboot to recovery, the device just reboots in to android.
Edit; Brief video for you, as you can see it reboots like normal (Sorry for the background noise!)

Yeah, one of the funny bits with installing Nightlies is that randomly stuff will break. I try and keep track of which has the most working as I'm moving along so that I can revert to a more "stable" version if needed.

Hashcode, will we get the m3 build?
Gesendet von meinem Amazon Kindle Fire2 mit Tapatalk 2

Thank you so mutch .just downloaded the m3 build. So nice to have you.
Gesendet von meinem Amazon Kindle Fire2 mit Tapatalk 2

Yeah we weren't on the original M3 list so I had to get added and for a re-run that the CM team did a day later.
From now on, we should be on the right list to get the monthly stable builds.

Hashcode, there is a little problem with the naming of our otter2 device. It shows me on the get.cm site that this is a kindle fire hd.

Yep, i reported it yesterday.

Building CM10.1 from source
Hashcode, I have successfully built CM10.1 from source for the otter2 by following the instructions in this thread and the CyanogenMod wiki. Thanks for the great work.
However, I did have a couple of issues that I had to work around. I'm not sure if it's because I did something wrong or because there is a problem. When I got to the "Extract Proprietary Blobs" section and ran the device/amazon/otter2/extract-files.sh script, I received an error message saying that the lib/hw/sensors.otter.so file couldn't be found. I poked around the filesystem on my KF2 (running CM10.1 nightly cm-10.1-20130411-EXPERIMENTAL-otter2-M3), and found that there was a lib/hw/sensors/otter2.so file.
Similarly, the file vendor/amazon/otter2/otter2-vendor-blobs.mk also contained the reference to otter rather than otter2, and caused a problem later in the build cycle.
By changing the otter to otter2 in both device/amazon/otter2/proprietary-files.txt and vendor/amazon/otter2/otter2-vendor-blobs.mk, I was able to get the build to complete successfully. Is this a known issue or did I do something wrong?
Thanks.

I noticed i only have 673 total ram with this rom...my ram has been stolen lol...I flashed from this cm10.1 to stock rom, and on stock ram shows right.. around 924 total.. but with this rom im missing ram, i only have 673 total.. Possible bug? What is the cause an how can i fix this?

Newest nightlies will include an all new audio driver in the Android OS. It works, but it's not finished (no MIC support yet).
I'll try and keep this updated as testing continues.

Did anyone else have issues with the last nightly not booting? I tried flashing 17 twice but kept letting stuck at the boot logo. Flashed 15 back again and up and running again.

Ubuntu Touch Native on Kindle Fire HD 7

Hi all,
Successfully rooted, flashed, and installed jelly bean 4.3 on my kindle fire HD 7 NY following seokhun's guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2271909
Now wondering of anyone had tried installing Ubuntu on the kfhd. Official Ubuntu touch should be released later this month. Developer preview out now but only officially supports a few Samsung devices.
Might take a gander on how to go about installing the preview later this week. My guess is that there will have to be tweaks made to cm before it'll work properly.
See more here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Install

It was ported to the first gen, kf2, and 8.9", I am considering trying to make a mini base like hashcode did for the 7" model, but I need to ask him a few questions probably before I start trying to flash test builds onto my own device.

Ubuntu itself was ported or do you mean chrooted? Or do you mean your working with the developer preview of ubuntu touch? I've seen plenty of people run Ubuntu chrooted but to my knowledge its more similar to a VM on android. I've long suspected that it was possible to boot into the full desktop version of Ubuntu on android systems but haven't seen or heard of it being done. Luckilly an official build of ubuntu for tablets and phones is being released soon.

I meant the Ubuntu touch preview, we already can test it out on the other kindles but we have to use an older version of the preview because of a bug the came into play when they went to a flipped os until hashcode fixes it.

Wow, great news.
Is there anywhere I can follow progress of successful ports?

Just look at the threads in the android development sections for the kindles, there is no 7" android minibase available, but if I'm not busy I might give a shot at making one, not too sure if the kernel will compile smoothly on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, but eh I'll maybe give it a shot sometime next week. Hard part is I have no idea about the initial stuff that runs as I'm more of a Linux pc person than a android person( even though Linux is at the base of android and Ubuntu touch.)

Thabks & will do. Actually just found hashcodes thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2168221 and the Ubuntu device wiki here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Devices if anyone is interested.
Good look if you attempt to modify and build the base code yourself. Keep us updated!

[Q] Linux in KF HD

It is possible to install any version of Linux natively on a kindle tablet?

asuming from this http://linuxonandroid.blogspot.cz/p/working-devices.html it is possible
but as said on http://www.ubuntu.com/phone/install
Ubuntu for phones is intended to be used for development and evaluation purposes only. It is an early release that can potentially brick your device. It does not provide all of the features and services of a retail phone and cannot replace your current handset. This is the first release of Ubuntu for phones and it will continue to evolve quickly. Please read the disclaimer as well. This process will delete all data from the device. Restoring Android will not restore this data.

so there, you probably can, but android would still be better

Thank a lot, I think i must pray for ubuntu touch work on kindle fire hd nearly...

The only software available for the Kindle Fire is the stock OS provided by Amazon, or any of the ROMs posted in the KFHD 7" Android Development thread. Any attempt to install any other software will brick your device with no way of fixing it.

Fire 7 mustang (2019) kernel sources

Hey Guys,
I'm trying to get into Android development and wanted to compile a kernel with tab2wake support (module). However, I can't seem find any page that offers the sourcecode for Amazon devices. Do you have an idea where I could get those?
Thx for any answer in advance.

It's available from https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=GXBUV78NMHPAKAVW the link says https://www.amazon.com/firehd8sourcecode but the archive file name is Fire_7_9th_Gen-6.3.1.2-20190523.tar.bz2
