yokone1,
We have seen this a number of times on both Go Launcher and ADW Launcher. This is a sure fix.
Download the attached file named AppWidgetPicker-1.2.3.apk copy it to /system/app then change
the permissions to Owner: Read Write, Group: Read, Others: Read. Do Not install the apk, just
move it and change the permissions. Next reboot, wait for the Kindle to upgrade and test Widgets.
Let me know if this solves your issue.
This worked perfectly, thank you so much! =)

I can copy it to my device into other folders, and when I then try to move it using ES File I get the notice can not move file.

Heather_A,
The folder /system/app is a secured folder, you need Root access to mount the folder:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069117
If you have Root, you need to use either ES File Explorer or Root Explorer in Root Mode.
In ES File Explorer, you need to go into the Settings Menu, next the Root Settings Menu.
Click on all the options in Root Settings. Be sure to Allow the Pop up Superuser request.
Once you have Root, then look at the VERY TOP Left of ES File Explorer where it says Local.
Look to the Right of Local, it probably says /sdcard/Download. If this is the case, you need
to click on the Up twice until you see Local /. You are now at Root, from here you will click
on /system - Local now shows /system, next click on app, now you are at /system/app.
Does this help? Since you are working with the /system/app folder, it is critical to backup
the Kindle. Here is software that automates the Backup Process: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2096888

Hey guys,
i did not root my kindle fire. I can use the ADW Launcher, but i cant use widgets. Nothing pops up after i press the widget button. So i installed the AppWidgetPicker. Now i can choose the icon and after that i can see all the widgets. Perfect i thought!
But when i try to choose a widget it tells me "widgetPicker closed" and nothing happens.
Is there anyone who can help me with this problem?:victory:

Another fabulously useful nugget of info on XDA-developers. Thanks so much. It is things like this that make that patronising and unfunny XDA sign-up video almost worth watching!
I'm having what sounds like the same problem on JB 4.1.1
Whe version of Android is on the Kindle Fire?
I have been running the v1.3.3.8 of ADW EX on Gingerbread (Atrix 4g) with flawless operation.
On my Jellybean v4.1.1 (Atrix HD), widgets are crazy. Static icons stay put, widgits disappear
and reappear all over the place.
Is the above fix likely to work for me on JB?
Thx

Here is where I'm at now, magic smoke live wallpaper installed fine but when I try to select it as my wall paper, it force closes. Not sured if I need another file. I then tried to install ocean waves, dandilion, and luminescence live wallpaprs but the installation failed on all 3 of those...

Usually for me, I just copy the apk's into system/app, change the permissions, and reboot. Which apps are you trying to install?
Some apps will install im /system/app folder some will het fc's,and some apps will get fc's in regualar install but install fine in /system/apps folder.A tip:Sometimes an app gets fc when in system app folder however if you mod that file(change icon color,etc.) It will work fine!I dont know why that is maybe something to do with signature.

Make sure you change the permissions of the files to match the permissions of other files in the system/app folder.
ive done that. The wallpaper is installed but when I try to view it in the wallpaper selecter, it forcecloses

On the normal clock there was a timer function. I dont see it anywhere on the asop clock thats part of super clean. Is there one? If not i guess ill just get an app for it but i used it alot so i remembered to feed my parking meter. Wife hates when i get parking tickets.
I love superclean but I had the same problem with the AOSP clock. So what I've done since the first one is open Rom Manager, click Download Rom, click Sonofskywalker3, then click Desk Clock and download the Stock Desk Clock and let that download.
I don't use rom manager to restart and install anymore because it used to boot me into a different recovery so I then restart into recovery using the button when you hold the power button and install the zip from SD card. It's a little tricky to find but you start in the Clockwork Mod folder. Find the zip for the clock and install it.
Also you may have to disable Voodoo to install, if you're on Voodoo, I know I did.
The clock will take over as your default clock but the AOSP clock will still be there.
Hope this helped!
I too prefer the stock clock over aosp. So you can do as was stated above or what I did was download it using clockwork then used astro file manager to find the zip. Open it
Then extracted the apk and replaced the aosp clock with stock.
I downloaded it from sonofskywalker and pulled the apk with root explorer and put it in system/app. Works great. Thanls guys.

How did you get permission to put in system/app with root explorer? I attempted that without success. I ended up doing an adb push.
Either way I agree the original clock is nice.

In root explorer there is a little button at the top that says mount r/o. I hit that so it switches to mounted as r/w, which i assume is read/write. R/O i assume is read only. This should allow you to do whatever you like in these folders.
Hi to everybody.....
I know that until now i'm starting to be boring but !!!! Finally i have managed to install Dorimanx-ROM. Now i have some questions:
1. How to delete EMail.apk, i tried with some file explorer and i can't do it ?
2. How to put my own ringtone mellody ?
3. How to put normal wallpaper , because i don't like this "slideing" wallpaper, i want for each page normal wallpaper picture.
Hopeing to get answers ... Thanks and regards
P.S. I'm Newby
1. 2ways :
Open zip with for example winrar but DONT unzip just "look into "it and go to system/app or if it's not there to data/app and delete the apk, then reflash.
Or you use root explorer on your phone and delete it the same way and reboot.
2. There are several apps on the market being able to do this for you its the easier way
3. Install a different launcher or go to the launcher the rom has and see the settings for the option disable /enable wallpaper scrolling.
Hope this helps you and is a thanks worth for you.

Hey guys. So I managed to root my Kindle Fire version 7.2.3. I Installed the Android Market and upgraded to Google Play Store. I started downloading apps, like Firefox and Opera, games, etc. Now, when I go to the apps menu on my Kindle, I only see the apps downloaded from the Amazon appstore... Opera, Firefox and the other games are nowhere to be seen... If I drag down the settings, I can see in my notifications that the apps were installed, and I can launch them from there, but that's it.. I can also launch them from ES FIle Explorer, but that's annoying... How can I make it so that all the content downloaded from the gplay store appears in the app section of my kindle?
Install a different launcher like Apex, Go Launcher, Nova etc. It will then look and feel like a normal android device, and you will see all your apps.

Thanks for replying. Sorry but I'm a noob with this... I downloaded Go Launcher from the gplay store and I can't see it or launch it because of the problem I mentioned above... If I get to launch it what do I do with it?
No problem dude. Download the .apk file (google it) for Go Launcher and put in the system/app folder. If it's a .zip, rename it to .apk then reboot your Kindle and it will load upon reboot. Try it out and see what happens. Good luck.

I download the apk and put it in the system/apps folder yet I can't see it in my kindle... I don't even know what I have to do with go launcher ex.. can you be more specific? thanks
Couple things to try here. If Go Launcher is installed, you should press the home button and a dialog box should pop up asking you which launcher you want to use. Select Go Launcher. If that doesn't work, download an app from the market called Home Switcher that allows you to select which launcher you want to use. If you don't see Go Launcher in there, then it's not installed. Keep trying, you will get it.

Take the attached files, download them to your desktop.
1) Plug your Kindle into USB
2) Using Windows Explorer, move GO_Launcher_HD.apk and GO_Launcher_EX_3_19_1.apk to /Kindle/Download
2) Now go to your Kindle. Open ES File Explorer go to Settings. In Settings > Other Settings is Root Settings. Select Root Settings, check all options.
3) Be sure to "Allow" Root
4) Now using ES File Explorer move /sdcard/GO_Launcher_HD.apk to /system/app/GO_Launcher_HD.apk and move /sdcard/GO_Launcher_EX_3_19_1.apk to /system/app/GO_Launcher_EX_3_19_1.apk - Install both apk's
5) Change the permissions (by long pressing each apk) on GO_Launcher_EX_3_19_1.apk and GO_Launcher_EX_3_19_1.apk to User: Read Write Group: Read Others: Read
6) Reboot the Kindle. When it reboots you should see "Kindle is upgrading", then you will be given the option to select a Launcher: Home (Stock Kindle Launcher), Go Launcher EX, or Go Launcher HD
Try them both, see which one you like, then when you are ready, click on the "Home" button to make one of them your new "Default" launcher.

No problem, go into the Apps container where all the apps are stored, scroll through then until you see "Home". Click on "Home" (Not the picture of the house) and wala, you are back to the old Kindle menu allowing you to access all your old /new goodies.
When you are done, click on the picture of the house and you can get back to Go Launcher.
If you install Google Music this app automatically will sync with the Amazon Music. Maybe the next Play Movies will sync with Amazon Movies, only time will tell.

Hi everyone, not sure if i am being completly stupid here, but when i unzip the zip file to desktop ready to transfer to KFHD, i was looking for the .apk expension, but i get 3 or 4 folders and no .apk file?- am i missing something, or just being a noob
OK, I'm not trying to start anything or be a jerk. That is definitely not my intention. However, because Beautiful Widgets is a paid app/widget is it right to post it here? I'm just curious whether this is a violation of some sort. If the makers of the app/widget have given permission I'll shut my mouth and move on. I understand that the version posted is an older version but in all of my searching, even older version of BW were not free.
Again, I'm just asking a question. I'm not trying to start anything.
