Hey guys, I got a Kindle Fire 2 here that I installed a 4.2.2 Jellybean Stock ROM about a year ago. While it's served me well, it has a few issues. I'm looking to see if you guys would recommend any particular ROM to install?
Furthermore, I tried looking at the CyanogenMod for Kindle Fire 2, but I'm not entirely sure what's the difference between CM10.1 Nightlies and CM11 Nightlies. I see people in a CM11 thread asking for Official CM10.1 nightlies, but I'm confused as I would think CM11 would be better?
Thanks in advance fellas. :fingers-crossed:

Cm11 is better (it's the latest and greatest). Less bugs and runs faster. Honestly there are very few knowledgeable people in these forums. . Hence the questions. Also- there are no new cm10.1 nightlies.
What particular issues are you trying to resolve? Maybe I can point you in the right direction.

Hey all, i have a canadian i747 galaxy s3 and i am pretty new to rooting and flashing ROM's. I have had CM10 flashed on my phone for about 2 months now, and am running the d2att CM 10.0.0 stable version that was released a week or so ago.
My question is, is it beneficial to update to the most recent nightlies? I don't know much about rooting so the change logs released are above my head, so any clarification as to what the right thing to do is, or the pros and cons of keeping up to date on the nightly releases would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
anyone? Im still running the stable version, but i dont know what the advantages/disadvantages of keeping up with the new nightlies are? Is there something i should be looking for in the change logs to see if they are worth while for my device? thanks

I would like to know as well. I will most likely run stable when i get my s3, but nightlies could've fixed some bugs
I flashed 2012-12-04 Nightly and they seem to still run 4.1 ?
This is not a whining thread, I am just confused... why are they still releasing 4.1 Nightlies when many other phones already got 4.2.1 nightlies.
GNexus doesn't have 4.2.1 nightlies yet.. right?

Yes CM 10.1 which is 4.2.1 is not official yet, however, you may like to check this "Unofficial" thread
You will need to wait some time for the official CM 10.1 update

Just a question, how come they continue to release the CM10 nightlies? Why don't they completely focus their efforts on CM10.1 rather continue working on an out dated version?

because they want to get CM10 perfectly working but they are already working on CM10.1 but just not for the galaxy nexus that's why you need to checkout the unofficial nightlies but if you want to get the new camera and apps of 4.2 you can flash the gapps on your device running cm10 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_k2UTkZ4xic
I am completely new to rooting and flashing custom ROMs, but I wanted to get more out of my 1st gen Kindle Fire. After studying the excellent guide done by kinfauns, I have rooted and flashed the CM10.1 RC2. Then I wondered what is the difference from the ROM I downloaded on CM's website vs the ones on this list http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1859851. A lot of them are still CM10.1. So what exactly is the difference between the CM10.1 on this list and the release candidates and nightly's on CyanogenMod?
hi all,
I eager to try kitkat version on my kindle fire, and tried several different rom. today I see an article about CM11 M2 Snapshot Build, that supposed to be more stable than nightly build. I do search here about CM11 snapshot build, but didnt find a single thread about this. why is that? from CM webpage, otter version is availble, no one try this? or there's a reason people didnt try this version?
mainly I want to try out the significant improvement with ART, but most ROM said we shouldnt use ART, because it is not stable yet, anyone can point me to the one that works? or at least let me which KitKat ROM that is most stable so far for kindle fire.
meanwhile, I keep getting back to Jandycane for my ROM
thanks

Yes, page 298 is where people start discussing the M2 build.
Hi everyone,
I recently got an old kindle fire 1st gen from someone and want to install a custom rom on it, I have rooted it installed custom recovery but I want to know what's the most stable ROM(other then stock) for it regardless of how old or new it is or it's version of android.
Thanks,
What version of Android are you looking for? Or are you perhaps interested in other OSs? I suggest checking out @sd_shadow's http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1859851 thread.
Choosing a thread you are interested in and reading at least the last several pages of it to see if anyone has reported problems is a good place to start. If you are up for @Hashcode's OtterX partition conversion, I've found the latest versions of all the OtterX KitKat and Lollipop ROMs to be stable.

Thanks for replying, I have seen several threads but still feel confused, I recently got a used first gen kindle from someone and want to flash a custom rom so it's more like an android tablet as I don't like the kindle interface and features :/, wanted to ask based on user experience which rom has soo far been the most stable lollipop or kitkat or jellybean would be fine, but I assumed lollipop would probably be less stable as it recently got released?
Also by stable I meant to say the rom which runs the fastest
I recommend a cyanogen 11 build. 201440719-1623-otter-sgt7
Only because based on what I'm reading you probably don't want to mess with converting partition files to run the otterx builds. Just my opinion since this is your first time around.

I did convert to otterx and installed the slimpop ROM, it seems to lag which was what I had guessed would happen if I went to lollipop, but is it any faster or better on kitkat or jellybean as compared to lollipop?
Thanks
