I was wondering if there are any jellybean ROMs that are good that have the microphone working for kindle fire. I know that it supports TRRS because before i ROMed it with twa-priv's rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1778010&page=249) I had an app that was able to record sound through the jack with headphones that have a mic.
Or is there a way to enable it in twa_priv's ROM?

I do not thing microphone can work on the first version of Kindle Fire since it have not a microphone
To the best of my knowledge none of the jb ROMs have the mic function working, however I have read that hashcode is working on it. I know that it does work on MoDaCo which is a stock based rom.

OK, Thanks. Would you recommend that ROM? I came from stock KF to twa_priv's ROM, so I don't know how a stock ROM works. Is it very different?
MoDaCo looks, acts and feels exactly like a stock KF, except that it is rooted and includes the Google Play Store. It is an excellent ROM, I used it for several months before moving on to JB. Once you have your KF setup with fff and twrp it is pretty easy to change ROMs so give it a try if having a mic is important to you. If you don't like it you can switch back pretty easily.

Best way to find out what you like is to experiment with different roms

well i just rooted my kindle fire and im not sure what rom to put, i heard some roms dont work with the amazon store after there installed and i want to be able to keep on using it to get my books and read them, but i just CANT Stand the Stock Theme it comes with, and i was wondering is there a rom you could recommend to keep reading books and keep amazon store working while having a different better theme as well as possibly downloading google play ?
I use Cm7 because it very stable. It support google play and not amazon market. I don't need amazon market so that's ok. I'm going to up my kf to jeally bean, every one said that its so good.

It all depends on what you want.
Battery life?
Performance?
The newest thing out there?
I loaded hashcode's stock jb ROM, which was stable and effective, but was a bit too cellphone-y for me, so I dirty flashed Jandy Cane on top of it and I love the tablet optimizations. It runs very smoothly and I've had no issues at all. I highly recommend doing it, stock KF software sucks

Don't worry about the amazon store, you can get all the books you want with the kindle app, and everything else will be on google play for the most part. There's always a way to get something. That said, I really like Jandycane, and there are some good, stable ICS based ROMs as well. gedeROM was probably my favorite.

+1 for jandycane. Very stable, very fast, and his new custom UI stuff is very cool.

thx, trying
I LOVE my jelly bean Kindle but miss my stock Kindle reader a lot. I've searched and read a lot and find references focusing the stock launcher to load the stock reader but it doesn't work for me ("sorry, launcher has closed"). I've seen other references to 'dual booting' being the only solution (I don't think I miss it enough to boot every time I want to read - I do have a kindle keypad if I really need to get a fix .
[Q] Anyway, I just wanted to ask here whether anyone knows whether/how I can use the stock reader on my CM10 ROM.

Still curious/found a solution somewhere else?

Hi, obviously this post is looking kinda dead, but I am definitely interested if you've found something elsewhere? I am looking into rooting my girlfriend's kf for her but I am sure she wouldn't want to lose a major feature such as that. I know they are alternatives but like you said im sure it would be missed and a deal-breaker for her to flash a rom
Don't be worried about that! The google play kindle app is basically the same one you have with the stock rom!

So not! It is painful to lose the stock kindle reader (have u seen the ipad ad? Maybe the android app will get updated...)
Anyway, dual boot is the only way to have both. You will also lose video streaming.

I installed Flash and stream Amazon Video via the website. As for the stock reader versus the one the one from Google Play, I can hardly tell the difference.

The only difference it's the losing of the changing font feature.
I cannot find the original thread that explained how it was possible to trick the Google Play store into thinking my Kindle Fire device was some other tablet. I am rooted and have the Google Play Store on my device, but unfortunately I still have to do a lot of backing up apps and sideloading from my Razr M rendering the root and Play Store access on my Fire nearly useless. Just wanna be able to trick Google Play into thinking its some other device that will alow me to install more apps. I'm fairly noobish so i'll need somewhat detailed instructions.

It has to due with tweaking the build.prop.......I know twa_priv's cm10/sgt7 ROM thread has a link to a flashable modified build.prop that disguises it as a Galaxy Nexus.......wonder if it works with other ROMs?

Oh you know what, thats where I saw it. I haven't installed his ROM. I wonder if it's possible for use without the custom ROM.

I'm not that knowledgeable to answer that but here is another link that might help if you ever go to a cm7 or cm9 Rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=27784658

I searched the forums, but couldn't find a definitive answer.
Is it possible to use Bluetooth dongles on any of the CM 10/10.1 roms? If it's possible, do I need any specific apps/drivers?
So far I have tested many roms and kernels and none of them will work until a driver is made for Bluetooth. And I doubt think anyone is working on. This at the time.
