anyone have system image?

I seem to have run into an issue. After rooting my kindle fire hd 7" and installing google play I lost my notification bar and my bottom bar. I basically can only enter one app at a time and if I want to switch I have to reset. I have no access to settings, because the only way I know is to go through the notification bar.
Other than waiting for skorpn cable to get into fastboot, any other way I can possibly get this fixed?
I can pull mine off if you want

I have been dealing with the same issue for hours and was getting ready to throw in the towel and order a cable. This worked perfectly! Thank you
Just glad to hear you can enjoy your kindle again.

i just had the same thing happen to me on unrooted kindle fire hd. I had just searched the forums last night and found out how to get gmail and reader onto my kindle... well I heard a notification and then it disappeared so I knew it had to be something. it IS new email in the inbox of your primary gmail account it seems. it is definitely tied to gmail. I went in and it came back and hasn't disappeared since. there's my two cents' worth of troubleshooting. just thought everyone would like to know.

You guys need to post in the tool you are using to root your Kindle's. There are MANY of you that are having the same issues with loosing your navbar and menu bars with this rooting process. This should NOT be happening.. If you are experiencing bugs with a automated root tool than you need to post in that thread to ask the developer of the tool...

[Q] Google Now on KFTT?

I have been doing some serious researching lately and found a port of Google Now for ICS... I also have just put Kinology on my Kindle, which is a deodexed ICS ROM, making it compatible with the port. I also found (somewhere in the vast ocean named "The Internet") a copy of GNow Handlebars. I currently do not have WiFi (only ethernet). Should I go ahead and try it to see if it will work?
It didn't work so I switched to CM10.1... Force closed... Updated app... No longer force closes, but instead the dialogue and mic button immediately closes and says "Sorry, I don't understand what you just said."

[Q] Rooted Kindle Keeps Resetting Itself?

Hey forum.
Before I begin, I'd just like to say this forum is incredible Been a massive help so far! So big thanks.
Anyway, I recently rooted my Kindle Fire HD 7". Incredible, and one of the bets decisions Ive made in regards to my tech.
However, after a few days, it seems to "de-root" itself. My Go Launcher HD disappears (reset to Home), the special offers come back (the ads on the lock screen - i change that as soon as im rooted), and the Superuser disappears. I still have Google Play Store etc, and can reinstall Superuser. The problem is, it still seems not to be rooted any longer.
I use ES3 file explorer, with the root manager, and after this rubbish happens, when I try to access the root manager i get "Test failed. Your phone is not compatible" or something like that.
So I simply reroot, and it's all back to normal (albeit with some annoyances such as having to reinstall Go Launcher).
I've not blocked OTA updates, so is it that?
Thanks for any help!
Ben.
I believe Amazon has updated the OS a few times over the last week or so. This will "de-root" the device each time.

wallpaper issue update 8.4.3
Since the first update to 8.4.1, i have been problems with wallpapers of my kindle fire HD 8.9''. I re-rooted the kindle many times, and actually i tried different launchers as nova or go launcher, however the wallpaper is impossible to change. ¿Some ideas to fix it?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2295750
On page 8 I posted a fix for the wallpaper, but I have hit and miss problems with bricking, suggest having a factory cable or twrp handy in case something happens. Feel free to try it.

There are some way to do this easier??? or what files we need to modify...
I see that you use CM10.1 why did you change it? I would like to change but there are a few issues with this so If i have a stable system (however the wallpaper doesnt work) why i should change?
I changed because I wanted to try cm10.1 then said to myself this is so much better, also I'm staying with cm10.1 because I don't like where amazon is going with the os, they just released another update that makes my fix not work because it now has an encrypted framework-res.apk, and I don't know if I can unobfuscate it, still waiting on someone to send me the new framework-res so I can analyze it. And i heard a rumor that they are going to patch the root exploit soon so i prefer stay in on something else that I don't have to constantly maintain and have compatibility problems with. Oh and despite then fact that cm is slightly unstable, i would call it stable enough to use overall. I having had the buggy mic issue yet nor have I had the 3d render issue when I played a 3d game, only problem I had was Google music related and I am not sure if other people have had it. I think HDMI may be slightly buggy but I don't know I have no minihdmi to HDMI cables. But having a full android is is worth it in my opinion, though if you use amazon prime I guess that would be reason enough to not change changes over because there's no such thing outside of kindle os from what I understand. Ironically most of my reading I do on a kindle isn't books but manga... So I have not really touched the bookstore.

Either flash CM10 or Hashcode's ROM that stops OTA updates.

[Q] Will apps designed for Kindle work on ROM'd KFHD?

Sorry if this has been asked before, I searched and didn't find what I was looking for...
I am currently running Kinology 3.2 and would like to switch to CM11, but I use several Kindle apps (such as this)
Will these apps still work if I'm running CM11?
Thanks
I don't know or not, most apps work, but I will say this I don't know about apps from Amazon's store, last time I transferred a free app from one kindle to another it threw a fit and said I didn't own it which I laughed at since it was free. If its in the Google market you can always get it that was assuming its free, or backup its apk and make a backup in twrp of kinology, then flash cm and install the app and see what happens.

Yes apps from the amazon appstore will work. I have cm11 and installed the appstore and downloaded apps I had on there.

I think he's asking if apps specific to Kindle work. There's several apps that have "Kindle Edition" versions. hamiltonfighter, I do not think they will work. But you can try, it won't hurt anything.

[Solved] Swype not found in Amazon app under CM 12.1

Hi! I recently installed CM 12.1 in my Fire 5th generation and it works really well. However, I've found a thing that bothers me.
I installed the Amazon app because I have bought several apps there, and when I tried to install them, I find that Swype Keyboard (along with some other apps) doesn't appear in the app list. This didn't happen when I had FireOS installed in the tablet, and I have no idea why this could be happening, as I had CM 12.1 and 13 installed in other devices (Nexus 5, Xiaomi Mi4c, no other tablets though) and it had never happened to me.
Any idea would be welcome.
Edit: Solved by installing Aptoide app store and searching Swype there.
