Are there any CyanogenMod roms for the Kindle Fire HD 7 (3rd Gen)? I would prefer 12.1 if there are any.
The only official CM for the HD 6 / HD 7 is 11.0. Here is the link along with instructions for installation: https://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-hd/orig-development/rom-cm-11-kindle-hd6-t3270138
Personally, unless you really dislike the Fire OS UI, I would stick with it. CM 11 is not 100 % functional, and assuming you are running Fire OS 5.x.x you are on Android 5 Lollipop core. CM 11 is on Android 4 KitKat core so it's also a step backwards.
There may be an unofficial CM 12 for the HD 6 / HD 7 but I haven't been able to find one. Also, Cyanogenmod shutting their site down doesn't help matters any. If you really want CM 12+, you could always try to compile from source and make a build specific for your device, though such a process is definitely not for beginners. Check Youtube for videos on porting custom roms if you want to go that route. Good luck.

Hello to community,
It is very sad that Dell is not supporting their devices for upgrade and performance improvement, so I decided to install cyanogenmod on my venue 7, also tried to find build for the same on cyanogenmod page but its not available and wanted to build my own.
So my question is Dell is providing kernel source but that is for KitKat version only, would it be useful to build for other versions too like cyanogenmod 11 12 onwards?
Hi there,imploymath my device was Dell Venue 7 3740LTE running Android 4.4.4. I also searched and searched for CyanogenMod 12 for our device,but no one has built CyanogenMod for this device yet...... ??
Found few days ago a CM 12.1 firmware for the Fire HD 7 --> https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=tate and now I would like to ask if someone is using/testing this on his fire hd 6...
HD 7 and HD6 are the same devices, just size varies. From what I've read CM for this devices was initially tested on a HD6, so enjoy .
EDIT : That link is for Kindle fire HD7 "Tate" , the 2013 model I think
Here's a link to CM 11 for fire HD 4th gen https://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-hd/orig-development/rom-cm-11-kindle-hd6-t3270138/page21
Note : Make sure you are ok with the things which don't work in CM
Hello,
I have an Archos 50 Helium 4g (running MIUI 7 v5.11.27 founded on ArchosLounge.net, but I have also an unnoficial CM 11 founded on ArchosLounge.net and a stock rom Android 4.3).
I want to port both CM 12.1 and MIUI 8. The Moto G 4g LTE (the 2nd generation) have the same specs (same CPU, same GPU, same RAM, same screen resolution) and CM 12.1 and MIUI 8 are available on this device.
I read a lot of guides and it's written "you cannot port an Android version higher than yours".
I dont know what do to and how can I port them (I am a newbie in ROM development/porting and I really want to do it).
Can anyone help me ? It will be awesome, thanks.
I don't know if I posted in the good section
Hey. So recently I rooted my Fire HD 6 4th gen (both of them), and I didn't really want 2 4.4 devices. They're running Android 4.4.4 Kitkat, and I was wondering if any of you guys had an Android 5.0 Lollipop ROM for it. If not that... I'd appreciate any ROMs you have (as long as it's not Nougat.)

Tried looking there. Looks like all of them just downgrade FireOS.

You would have to flash a Custom ROM based on Android 5 and up, what requires you have flashed a Custom Recovery before, what requires bootloader of your Kindle Fire HD got unlocked before.

I already have custom recovery, I just can't find ROMs of Android 5+.
I have tried making ROMs myself, but just ran into a bunch of errors.
Hi im wondering if it's possible to build android 9 for a device that shipped with android 10 and has no support for android 9. I'm using a Google Pixel 4, running an Android 10 rom that I compiled from aosp. It's fully rooted, unlocked, twrp, custom kernel, custom rom. I'm new to building android but I've successfully built roms from lineage 17 and 18 for my pixel 4, as well as android 10 and 11 for my pixel 4. Im curious if it's possible to build android 9 for the device. And if so, how? The aosp website doesn't give much information on the process.
