(Q) cm10.1 kindle app with tts - 7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Really excited about cm10.1 on the kfhd but my wife I fear has an understandable deal breaker, she lets the kindle read aloud to her using the tts ability in the kindle app but the play store kindle app does not have this ability...
Has anyone ported the app or does anyone know a work around other than stripping drm and using a second app?

You can pull the .apk from the Kindle and install it on CM10.1, try to see if that will work. If you've got Hashcode's TWRP installed, make a backup of the ROM you're on, then use a file manager with root access to go into the /system folder, copy the .apk and move the copy to /sdcard, then transfer it to your computer. After you load CM10.1, move the .apk to the tablet again and install it. If it works, you're good to go. If it doesn't, and you're not happy, boot into recovery and restore the backup, and you'll be back to where you were before CM10.1.

[Q] Shop Amazon apk

I have the KFHD7, 7.2.3 rooted, and I accidentally deleted the stock "Shop Amazon" app, an I don't have a backup of it. Can somebody put up the aol for it? Thanks ahead of time!
I believe you can download from www.Amazon.com. Just go to their apps area.

The ones you can find on Gplay and Amazon's app store are the generic versions, the stock kindle one was a little different.
Still, they work the same...

Yeah, I appreciate the effort in replying, but that wasn't helpful at all. Just need the apk, not opinions about it.

Hopefully using the bin to return to 7.2.3 helps, quick question though, if when it says formatting memory and it says type unsupported, is that normal.....and also my kindle won't upgrade even if I click on upgrade button, it's faded out

You are trying to open the nandroid backup file? Just rename the .tar.a to .tar and you can open with winrar or some other archive program.

Noooo. There is an error parsing the package?!?!
Thanks anyway. Is there a way to fix this?

It is probably because the home.apk for the HD/HD+ is ics and stock Nook Color is froyo. If you modify the androidmanifest.xml file in the apk to change the expected version of android, it might install. But that does not guarantee it will run.

The line that says minSDKversion. And I don't remember what version froyo is. Look at your other apps. And before you ask, you have to decompile and recompile the apk before you can edit it. Use APK-Multi-Tool. Search web for it.

Thank you again. By the way. I'm on CM7.2 (2.3.7 gingerbread) not froyo.

You are wanting to run the stock launcher on CM. Good luck.

Ugh. I've been looking at APK multi-tool confused::sly: ) and I'm thinking that I'm both too nooby and busy to do this. I'm scared I'll break something or have to stop in the middle of a process. I know this is asking a lot, but can you recompile this APK to work with gingerbread for me?

Changing fonts?

Hello fellow AHD users! I was wondering if there were any way to change fonts on this phone? I've used quite a few apps from the play store, but they all end in a soft brick. I'm running on Carbon 4.3 nightly. Thanks

There are a few on the clockworkmod application that I like, you can download those and flash them via recovery. Other than that, try "iFont" on Google Play.
Ifont works good.

Cyanogenmod 10.2 Google play services update problem

Everything is working great for me on this rom, but if I try to update g+ or sign into YouTube, it says I need to update play services. When I try and do this, I get an error that says something about the file being unsigned.

A couple things you can try.
First is to boot into recovery and wipe CACHE/DALVIC only and then reboot into system and see if that helps.
The other is to boot into recovery and flash the most recent signe Gapps and then wipe CACHE/DALVIC only and see if that helps. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2387878
Thanks, I'll give it a try.
