Simple wallpaper fix? (2013 kfhd) - 7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there an apk I can install or a simple fix afor wallpaper in 3rd party launchers? I am rooted but have a 2013 Kindle Fire HD.

Use the one in my signature, you need to have busybox installed to use it, don't think busybox was included in the root process on 2013 models so you have to get a busybox installer from the Google play store.

you are right, there's no apk......sig

To all,
It looks like the OP is viewing this from mobile, which, unfortunetly, doesn't show signatures (other than the "sent from whatever device I've got" one).

[Q] how to get the Kindle App (The one inside stock Kindle Fire 2)

I just got CM 10.1 running on my Kindle Fire 2nd Gen. But when I downloaded the Kindle App from the store, its a lot different from the built-in Kindle App in stock Kindle Fires. One noticeable difference is when viewing my magazines.
Where/How can I install the "original" Kindle App?

the only problem is it fc's every time you try to open it, maybe you could get someone to fix it for you. it's in the amazon update file.
Thanks anyways. That's just a minor drawback compared now that my KF is rocking with CM 10.1! Thanks to all devs who made this possible!

[BUG][CM10.1][KFTT] Camera only Partially functional

Hello fellow KFTT users, I have recently flashed CM10.1 and I realized that the camera only partially works... It works when booted up then it seems after a certain period of use, it quits working. This is not a complaint, just a little heads up to Has code if he wasn't already aware.

used other app to se that the camera app is the problem?
Are you taking pictures or are you taking video?
I've only tried picture because I can't get any stock camera app to stay installed. There seems to be none pre-installed.

[Q] removing silk entirely

Hi peeps
quick question.... if I remove silk entirely (cause I hate it and don't really want 2 launchers installed) will more apps in the Google store be more compatible? or is that just the way the kindle is made?

Wrong thread
Silk isn't a launcher
Yes, there are plenty of launchers and browsers available
Sent from my Amazon Kindle Fire HD using xda app-developers app
Hmmm.... obviously silk isn't what I meant then.... I wand to remove the original kindle software to stock vanilla android.... there are a few apps which at the moment if I search the google play store and they're either not there or don't work and then have to use the amazon Appstore to get a working version... would removing all the amazon launcher stuff make those apps work/available? Or would it not make any difference?
To clarify: Silk is the web browser.
And back to the issue at hand, if you want vanilla android, CyanogenMod is the closest you will ever get.

I don't think it has anything to do with the Amazon apps. I think I read somewhere that it has something to do with the build.prop (which isn't something to go messing with).
If you want to see those incompatible apps in the Play Store, use this app here: http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...ps-without-changing-the-build-prop-root-only/

[Q] Could someone pull the Wired Magazine APK from Kindle Fire HD 7"?

Any chance someone could pull the APK of the Amazon App store version of Wired Magazine from a Kindle Fire HD 7"? Regular Android tablets don't get the nice, tablet-optimized version of the magazine. Instead, we basically get a PDF. The only other copies of the APK floating out there are from the original Kindle Fire, where the magazine content is stuck in a 1024x600 box in the middle of the screen.
Not looking for any magazine content, as I'm a subscriber Just looking for the APK itself. Thanks!

Asking one more time. Any chance someone could pull the APK?
Thanks!
If you're rooted, you could try Market Helper from codekiem, to spoof the kindle device id?

Yeah, I have that one and I believe it's from the original Kindle Fire. The date on that post is in 2011 and the HD was released in 2012.
I'm not 100% sure the APK from the KF HD would even work, but I know the one from the original KF doesn't work correctly. I appreciate the reply.

Really good idea, but people on this thread indicate that it doesn't fool the Amazon App Store.

Thanks for the help, though.
