Hello,
I have a Kindle Fire HD 7 4th Generation. I found that my device "ARIEL" is not anywhere.
I would like to get CyanogenMod (or really just a generic Android OS) installed there. I would like to think I have pretty advanced knowledge of Linux so I can compile stuff if needed.
Thank you,
Maxwell.

Well, it was worth a try.
There is no such device as a Kindle Fire 4th gen. The kindle branding was dropped. As of now, Cyanogenmod or any other Rom for that matter has not been ported to the Amazon Fire HD 6 or7.

I also have the "ariel" version of the Kindle Fire HD 7. I can't find ANY information on what the differences are between tate and ariel, and why there is no CM rom's for ariel.
Is there any way to force the tate CM rom to install on my ariel? Or trick my kindle into thinking it's a tate?
Tate has No front facing camera, different hardware, alot more!
there is cyanogenmod 11 for ariel!!!!!

One of the reasons why people buy Android platforms is because they <i>don't</i> want an Apple product ;p

I imagine you could use Nova Launcher to somewhat mimic Win7 using the taskbar. Maybe try finding a Win8 hub style guide online.

Yes I think this guy means a port from one of these devices. It is better to compile from source, a good developper could give it a go.

As far as I know it's impossible to compile Ubuntu from source and it'll never work. They are searching for a firm to build a phone with their OS, not just devs who port it
Sent from my Nexus 7 running Android 4.2.2
imho currently its not worth any effort to port it, even by compiling it from source if it do got source because its dev preview, not for consumer.
many, many function u would expect from a working phone just wont work properly.
today/tomorrow a porting guide will be up
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting
Why Only Nexus???, is it because of the xperia 2011 hardware doesn't meet the minimum requirement??

D'oh. Its just cm10.1 in disguise.
Code:
Since Ubuntu Touch is just a CyanogenMod 10.1 base with the Ubuntu Touch interface running in a container and accessed via chroot,
Shame on u ubuntu team, running linux distro via chroot in android already done many years ago. Thank you for making myself feels stupid for expecting much more than chroot ui.

quoting from the ubuntu wiki,
For quick reference, these are the current components used from Android:
Linux Kernel (stock Android kernel provided by the vendor, with a few changes to support some extra features needed by Ubuntu)
OpenGL ES2.0 HAL and drivers
Audio/Media HAL and services, to re-use the hardware video decoders
RILD for modem support
As Ubuntu is running in a separated container on top of an Android kernel and services, the communication between them happens via Binder, Sockets and libhybris.
Other than the very basic services (needed to re-use the binary blobs already available), the rest is just pure Ubuntu goodness

This is a playground/playplace of sorts with all kinds of ROMs, such as PSX and RastaKat. I do take requests as far as which ROMs to build or features for the kernel/device-specific repos, however, my goal is to stay as true as possible to the upstream ROM, so most ROM feature requests will be denied.
Discussion and ROM Links available at the Sprint forum to consolidate everything. So far, for AT&T, only PSX is available, but more will be available as time goes on.
Hope to see you here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2543176

[ROMs] Smorgasboard of ROMs (PSX, Rastakat, etc, more to come), a ROM for the AT&T LG Optimus G

ROM OS Version: 4.4.x KitKat
ROM Kernel: Linux 3.4.x
Based On: AOSP
Version Information
Status: Testing

First ever
Fantastic!
I loved PSX on 4.3, can't wait to get home and install this one.
Edit: just want to day the PSX build is running great! Keylights aren't working (though I'd have turned them off anyway), and NFC doesn't want to turn on, even with the fix_NFC.zip, but as I currently have no use for NFC, its a non issue for me.
Don't know what you mean by upstream of ROMs..
I know houstonn is building ParanoidAndroid. I believe he's stopped doing Carbon..Snow does Carbon... So I'm going to choose a Nexus 4 ROM if possible.. Cataclysm if possible!
This is just awesome cant wait for roms to flood in based on KITKAT :angel: :angel:
Good luck xboxfanj and zymphad :highfive:
This is frigging awesome! Thanks guys!

Upstream means the ROM source itself. Any device has sources specific to that device (device source, kernel source, and binaries) and pulls the rest of the parts of the ROM from upstream. In other words, I would prefer not to have a feature request list for ROMs. I'd like to keep them as close to how the developers intended them as possible.
BTW, I should be able to build Rastakat for GEEB and GEEHRC today so the offerings are the same on all devices. Then, I'll add Cataclysm for all devices. Thanks for the recommendation.

I was having the same issue. I had to wipe as usual, i then powered off and went back into recovery and flashed fine. Not sure if powering off is necessary.
I use Brothaedhung's TWRP.
Flashed PSX the other day.
Overall smooth as usual, after all of the restorations/fixes (location apk, efs, flash google camera 4.4) things were very smooth. Minimal ram usage, which is perfect. A lot of apps aren't compatible/functioning properly with 4.4 yet, the only reason why I didn't keep it. 5 bugs (if you want to call it that) that I noticed during my time with PSX in particular, didn't flash Beanstalk yet.
1. Sms seems to not restore (it does, but then it deletes), not sure its a ROM thing. Im guessing its a Kit Kat thing seeing as it happened on every 4.4 build i've flashed thus far. Used "SMS Backup +" app.
2.Busy box says it installed but not the version I selected, dont know what that means or if its even a real bug but it still worked.
3. Boot animation doesn't change using 3rd party app (Boot Animations ★ root) Again not sure if its a ROM thing or app.
4.Faux clock worked as it should but faux sound didnt, is there a Kernel that we were supossed to flash or just use the one that came with it?
5. Good ol Maritime is back, doesnt affect anything, nor do I actually care but im sure it bothers some people.
Thanks for providing more KitKat options bro, I know it's still young but good job.

You can change the boot animation by taking the zip of the for you want, naming it bootanimation.zip, and putting it in /data/media

Hi, Kindle Fire Utility just works for Kindle Fire 1st and 2nd generation non HD.
It works fine just not every feature. It made widgets work for me.
Can someone tell me if the Next Issue app works on the HDX 8.9"? I've replaced all my Amazon magazine subscriptions with Next Issue but use Kindle for everything else. I want to replace my CMed Nook HD+ with the HDX but don't want to loose the ability to ready my magazines...
