sorry dude no mic
You need a headset with a microphone built in. That's the only way to do it at this point.

Thanks OP I was wondering the same thing. Too bad it doesn't have a mic but for $199 the Kindle Fire is still a steal.

I have been all over xda looking for a way to get Bluetooth working on the Kindle Fire so that I can use PDAnet to tether it to my phone. Last I've heard is that the Fire contains the BT chip and it might or might not be wired correctly. Any help would be truly appreciated!

I dont think any roms manage to the bluetooth working. Why dont you need a bluetooth anyway? Kindle has wireless, turn your phone into a wireless hotspot and you will be fine.
Is there a way to do that for free?

I don't get you why do you need to pay for wireless hotspots from your own phone

If you look around you'll find some threads with more recent information (some posted by me if you want to search from my posts). In a nutshell, the early reviewers were probably wrong, the chip in the wireless module is a TI WL1270B though it was incorrectly and repeatedly referenced to as a TI WL1271. The only information I could find says that the WL1270B chip, like the WL1270, is 802.11 b/g/n only.

I'm sorry I was once told it was something that had to be paid for. I never did research on it because I ever counted it as an option...my bad

Check around. Android phones usually need root. Wireless tether for root users works well.

I have mine running Energy™ICS CM9 Kang ROM Themed and OnLive gaming system works great on it. The problem is I need an input device to play about half of my games and OnLive has an amazing bluetooth controller. I have checked all over online and it seems that we need a Kernel that would support BT. Any chance people have a work around to get the OnLive system to activate the controller?
You dont need bluetooth

Wrong forum. You are asking about the 2nd gen kindle fire, right? There's its own forum for it, so check it out.
Has anyone's figured out how to use blue tooth on the kindle fire?? Maybe through otg or something. May be a stupid question but I dunno. I'm running energy cm9 please share your input.

Nope. Nobody has been able to do it. I'm honestly don't think it would be possible. Sorry.
U see its similar to how u use usbotg..u have to have necessary drivers installed..maybe these ar still being developed..

There are no stupid questions (only answers could be). I tried both my bluetooth dongles with otg cable and both are fired up, catched logs from the moment when connected and (after reboot) from the moment of switching "bluetooth switch" on and sent to Hashcode. Hope he will find time to provide kernel that will support at least generic usb devices...

Thanks for your reply!! so you have used this method to make and receive calls?
I'm going to have to go ahead and dash your hopes *temporarily*. Currently none of the kindle fire 2 roms support wired headsets. They're working on it.
However, if you're using the stock kf2 software, then yes. Any voip Android app that supports calling out to phone numbers will work with a wired headset that has a Mic

What's up guys, I recently placed the 3/28 TWA CM10 ROM on my kindle fire and everything works perfect, except communication with network devices. I use a home automation system called Bitwise which works with hardware in the backend managing all the devices, and it communication through wifi; I use it with the app on my Nexus 7, but on the Hacked kindle fires it doesn't work. I was wondering if there's something wrong with the network driver that's preventing this from functioning correctly?

Does the app force close? Or does it just not work?

Hi my local cable company has a pretty sweet app and it works on a firestick with no issues. However, I upgraded to a Fire TV in hopes it would be faster. So far it is, However, my cable app is not working because it detects HDMI output. How or why it didn't on the firestick IDK but can anyone guide me on how to fix this or if I send you the APK is someone willing to look at it and fix it for me or guide me how to? I'm willing to learn I just can't seem to figure it out.
I suspect it has to do with the Fire TV HDMI CEC detection. I would suggest you try turning it off.

Thanks for the tip and I tried it out but it's app specific. Click to view channels and it says external display not supported. Which makes no sense to me since a firestick runs the same app without issue.
