rom recommendation - Kindle Fire General

Rooted and flashed FFF & clockwork onto my GF's new refurb kindle. What would be the recommended rom to use for her until HW acceleration works for CM9? She wants to be able to access her purchased games via play store + hulu/netflix access.
Thank you

If you don't mind me asking what do you set your CPU governors to?

Effects of modifying pre-installed busybox?

Can anyone go into detail about this? I just wanted to confirm if its going to affect the device if we downgrade the busybox to 1.18.2. Running nightly 197 oc @ 1.2ghz

You can downgrade without problem. Just use busybox installer from the market.

I recommend the one by JRummy... it provides more options as to available version and a check box to create symlinks... and it works

Changing build.prop to download app

Hi,
I'm trying to download a game, but I installed ICS (latest kang) and obviously it's thinking I'm running 4.0.1 and the game won't run on this. Is there a way to edit build.prop or any other file so I can buy the game before the rebate ends.
Thanks in advance
EDIT: All I'm trying to know is if it's possible to change a file to make the Market app think I'm running something like 2.3.4 so I can buy the app??

Yup exactly and I know it's not my phone since my GF has the same, but hers is running stock android.
did you change LCD density
Only time I have issues with incompatible apps is when I mess with density and set to 210
Default is 240

Do a backup in CWM and install a GB rom, buy the app and restore your ICS rom in CWM. The long but sure way to get there..

but make sure u backup the app with titanium before you restore ics. Because still you won't be able to download from market.

Oh well, I thought about that, but I hope there would have been a faster way.
Still thanks everyone
Have you tried to browse to market.android.com on your PC and buy it there? Yesterday I couldn't buy an app on my phone, for me it worked that way.
you're lucky....at least your phone has a reason to think it's not compatible....I'm running stock 2.3.4 and I get that error message for at least 75% of the apps in the market....including gmail, etc. It's obnoxious!!!
Seriously, this isn't even a dump from online or anything...this is my original ROM backup restored via CWM that is doing it.
It thinks you're running 4.0.1? If you are running ICS euroskank kang you ARE running 4.0.1....

But really, don't use ICS as daily driver, it's way too buggy and slow. Very soon we will have the ICS OTA and then things will be different.. I hope..

Overclocking questions...

Hello, I am wanting to overclock my CPU and I am not sure what my options are. I have the R800x with CDMA type network. I have rooted the phone via superoneclick (zergrush method). I am running Android 2.3.3 currently. My questions would be...
1: what is the best and easiest way to setup my phone so I can overclock?
2: will overclocking increase the stability of mupen64 emulator?
3: is there anything else I my have overlooked that could help my emulators performance?

If you're not sure, it's locked. You gotta unlock it and flash a custom kernel.

Ok is that hard to do? How would I go about doing that? Easy to follow instructions would be great. Thanks for the help.

What ROM are you using. Is there any special reason you want sim toolkit?
Not a very useful app....

im using infinitum lbr1.1.1. i want simtoolkit cuz i thought it has the option to see how much my bill is. the features i think vary on the carrier. my friend for example has this app and it shows the cost of his phone bill

It may depend on the carrier (self-serve function) but may also depend on a carrier-specific version of the apk.

It almost sounds as though your rom doesn't support it.

In case you are talking about Chainfire3D then he confirmed on twitter that it does not work after GB.

I don't follow him on twitter but I am using chainfire 3d on the p3113. The only thing I can't use is night mode and it is of no use to me anyway. I am however using the paid version but that shouldn't have anything to do with being able to install it.
