Is there away to get the Home/Back buttons to appear in landscape mode? Some of the stupid games the kids like to play default to landscape, but there is no Home button on the OtterX in landscape mode (that i've found). the only way to get back to to force reboot...which is a P.A.I.N.
TIA.
I am using the latest Slimkat otterx, and am not experiencing missing navigation. Which ROM?

Was on slimkat, now on PACMAN...same results. Home, back and recent buttons vanish when in landscape.
I've gone through the settings several times, I don't see anything that I'm missing. weird.

Pac man did that for me, although their newest is supposed to have fixed that. Slim Kat, cm11, and every other otterx rom has navigation in portrait and landscape. Are you doing a clean wipe after pacman?
Yeah.....or at least I thought so...but maybe not?
I'll try the latest build in the next day or so (with a complete wipe). It's nice that OtterX flashes so very quickly.
thanks.
later version of OtterX seems to have resolved the issue.

Guys i really don't have time to be working on a rom that i don't even have a device for. Im so sorry guys, i would love to continue my work here but i think its time for me to move to the Nexus 7, if you have a Nexus 7 you can find my latest rom over there. I will leave glazed ICS and Simple CM9 open, but i no longer will be supporting them. This rom is DEAD.
Just like Google Chrome Says
"Jim, He's Dead"
or was it
"You Killed Him Jim"
Close ME Please
Awesome looking good. I thought you were going to stop doing roms for the kindle. I'm happy your still going to make Roms!!
gapps included I assume from the filesize?
Very happy to see you release this. Downloading and flashing now

Good news, can't wait to flash this to my KF!
Nice ROM, but the recent apps list button makes everything but the power, home, and back buttons unresponsive.
I have that problem, too. That is the only problem besides anything else. But everything else is top notch!

Had a few problems. Did full wipe, install with default launcher.
System very sluggish. Changing to tablet UI freezes system with the phone UI navigation about 4/5ths of the way IP the screen. Hard reboot, tablet UI now active.
Antutu benchmark 5000+ before any apps restored, system still sluggish though. System freezes a few times once gmail sync begins, hard reboots required. Noticed a few other issues, but have forgotten them, had to restore to eyecandy JB to keep.things running. Will definitely keep trying each new build.
Thanks

Great installer! It gives more flexibility and stability, as you don't have to mess around with mods after.
I installed over the Glazed ICS.
All was good until I tried to hide the statusbar by swiping, as I had this setting put in ICS. The disappeared statusbar and shortly after that KF just froze.
Tried a few times, but still wasn't able to go to settings and make changes as it kept freezing after hiding statusbar this way.
Even after clean install hiding statusbar FC-es the system UI.
Another strange bug, that is common to all JB ROMs is that Button Savior is not working. Why that?
Antutu gave me 5180, so its still to work to get the same performance as ICS, just as the battery drain. Hope to see this soon.
Great beta! Waiting for next update!
Yeah i realize there are many problems that need to be fixed, thats why its a beta, twa_priv is updating his rom that i use as a base and next update i will release a newer beta 0.2. Hope that can solve more issues in the future.

Toggling the status bar using edge swipe works perfectly fine in my 20120719-0403 build - which is the build you took as a base.
The rom is very good

I added Stock KF option in Aroma, it still needs testing but if you choose it, you will get the stock launcher with video and all that other stuff. Anyone who tests it please report back with results,
I did a full wipe and installed the kf launcher but the browser and Amazon video both constantly fc

Brand new Nexus 7 here. I have noticed that any action requiring a touch and hold, such as moving an app or widget is often not recognized and I have to try several times. On the other hand, other things seem to be hyper sensitive, like the SwiftKey keyboard where I regularly get double presses.
Is it just me, or are other people experiencing this?

I'm having the issue too. Also when using Swype and when resting my finger on an opened browser page and all of a sudden with one finger it'll zoom in real quick. I think I might exchange tomorrow. I've been waiting to see if this is software or hardware issue. I've also had the chrome browser just lock up.
Same. Takes me a couple tries to hold down on the home screen to get the wallpaper option to come up for example. My initial guess is that it's software related...maybe a sensitivity issue? Like it wants to scroll left/right the second you press down which then negates any long-touch pressed-in options until you let go and try again. If that makes sense.

Hopefully this is just software. If there aren't too many having the same issue then it could be hardware.. Are you guys thinking about exchanging for new one?

Right now I'm not. Everything else seems fine. I really think it's just 4.3 or the new screen or something being more sensitive than the old N7. I just tried it now and about 9 of 10 times i got the wallpaper option to come up, but I was paying attention. So who knows!

I have it also. I honestly do not think its hardware related as it was similar to my nook HD+ works great on games but keyboard typing and web page links are spotty. Could be wrong but my personal opinion is its an android thing still lol

No problems over here... Are you guys in very humid climates? Maybe that could be making a difference if the screen is over/under-sensitive? Or maybe just bad hardware / connections? My screen is working flawlessly, that's all I know.

No issues at all for me either. The digitizer is working flawlessly. Using stock launcher.
Happens to me all the time especially when typing with double inputs. Being pressed especially. Space bar hence my. Over use of periods
I' m having the same problem, especially on the chrome browser and the keyboard. I'm returning mine today, also because my screen has a black line all the screen from top to bottom.
Same problem here, but doesn't happen too often. Running nova launcher. Sensitivity is otherwise great.

I have confirmed this issue on both stock launcher and Nova launcher. I have not tried Apex.
Sometimes touch and hold will work fine, but other times it's frustratingly bad. Seems like I'm not the only one, which makes me think that swapping it probably won't make a difference. I think I'll just hold out for a software update.
I'm having similar problems here. Figured I'd wait until the official release date to see if they push a fix or something before I return it

So, on the [ROM-AOSP] Unofficial CM10.1 build I'm on with my Kindle Fire HD 8.9", it seems there's an issue with taking screenshots and recording video on-screen using any app, as well as any camera apps.
Any app that seems to be used for capturing anything in general turns the Kindle Fire HD into an insanely slow paperweight until you force-reset the device. It lags SO bad you can barely do anything. You can hold down the power button to try to bring up the restart menu, but it takes about two minutes for it to appear, and there's literally nothing you can do except force-reset by holding the button down longer.
For taking screenshots, I've tried: Screenshot It, Screencast, Screenshot Ultimate, Screenshot UX,
For taking pictures, I've tried: Camera ZOOM FX, Camera+, Camera MX, Panorama Camera 360
Does anyone have a solution to this? Taking screenshots is actually a big part of what I enjoy about utilizing my device, and a decent camera app that's better than the junky default one would be very beneficial to me. Any suggestions? Any known reasons as to why this occurs?
Thanks.
Um out of what you listed, have you tried taking screenshots with the native function of holding power and volume down? Though I must say if its doing stuff like this with the camera as well, maybe check the md5sum of the ROM you flashed, if its not the same re download it, even if it does match up I think u should consider wiping the system, cache, and dalvik cache from twrp and reflashing the ROM and gapps, you wouldn't lose any data or anything. Screenshots and the camera app built in work fine for me when I take pics, though I don't take pics often since the kindle only has a facetime camera.

I wasn't aware of that type of screenshot function on the Kindle. I just tried it with success. Is there a place where I can get some information on any other possible functions regarding the Kindle/CM10?
By the way, I've checked the CRC32 of the ROM and downloaded multiple variations (as I wasn't sure which one was the right one, and the first install failed). It wasn't until I installed cm-10.1-20130812-UNOFFICIAL-jem that it worked. Before, I tried a different one where it didn't say "jem" in it, but something else instead and I got stuck on the circular CyanogenMod loading logo with it halfway cut off the screen. I'm looking through Hashcode's goo.im page and I see a cm-10.2-20130829-UNOFFICIAL-jem.zip dated back less than a month ago. Is this an update of some sort? What's the difference between the 10.1 I have installed and the 10.2?
Note For Hashcode: Also, since I see that Hashcode is adding lists of apps that aren't working on his CM page, maybe someone should mention that the game Sonic 4, Episode 2 does not work on it. It's a black screen after the intro logos, and even though you cannot see, objects are still able to be selected. Another game that has issues with rotation is UNO & Friends. It rotates the game upside down no matter which way you turn the Kindle. Only disabling rotation in settings resolves the issue. Someone could also mention all screenshot and camera apps causes major hardware slowdown to the point that it's unusable. I'd do it myself on the CM10 page Hashcode has, but it doesn't let me post there.
I don't know about any other button combinations, but cm 10.2 is newer than cm 10.1, I myself haven't updated to it yet because of a few reasons.

I just rooted to 4.4.2 vinar and have 2 issues. One. The s pen no longer works. The air command does not appear when the pen is pulled out nor does anything happen like it usually makes a sound. The pen displays a cursor over the screen though. The second issue is the "Ok google" feature stopped working. It was working great when I first rooted, but now it's not working at all. It works, but not the ok google, when you speak it. How do i fix these?

Vanir is AOSP. All Samsung software/features do not work since you are not on a TouchWiz ROM. Not sure if Vanir comes with two different launchers like some other AOSP ROM. You may now be using the one that doesn't have the OK, Google feature. Clear the default for the launcher or hit the Home button and select Launcher, not launcher3.
As a sidenote, you 'flashed' Vanir, not rooted.

Sorry, I'm not too in depth with the terms. I'm using the "launcher" not launcher 3. Also, I do have the one that has the ok Google feature because it was working for me, for some reason it just stopped working... If I could get the ok Google feature to work as well as the air commands, I'd be happy. Is that possible to do with another rom maybe? I saw that there is an official 4.4 update coming OTA in the next week or so. Would I be best just unroot ING and going with that? My phone is rooted.
No problem with terms. We all here have been a noob at one point. You can try to do a factory reset to see if that fixes your issue. Or reflash the Vanir ROM Never take OTA if you want to keep flashing custom ROMs. Let the devs here do their magic in bring a custom 4.4 TW ROM. Also look in the general section where someone post some apps to simulate the Spen features.
So one problem i get whenever i either play pokemon go or try out a 360 video is that this annoying black cursor pops up. Now if it was just there i wouldn't mind but constantly takes up inputs i have to repeatedly tap my phone to get anything done. Also it makes it so I can't hold a pokeball in the game and if I do i won't be able to fling it anymore. It doesn't seem to pop up on all ar things because when i tried and ar app it didnt show up and everything went fine. I am on DU right now but i had the same problem on cm too.
unfortunately, I'm not allowed to post pictures yet so here's a link

Did you make any progress on this? I'm having the exact same problem. Was on CM and now on DU like you too, same problem on both. This makes Pokémon Go unplayable for me.
