I have a Unity project that is already successfully distributed via Google Play and Amazon Store. It runs on all the Kindle Fire devices as well. Now I have a new version, but for the life of me I can't get it to run on my Kindle Fire test device. Once I build & run, it just stops on a black screen, and the log leaves me scratching my head what might go wrong here. This is all the log being created throughout the start sequence:

The same project just deployed to a Nexus 7 just runs fine, even with the Amazon SDK/GameCircle setup. I already updated all the Android SDKs and the Amazon Unity Plugin, but no change. I've reset the Kindle to factory defaults and tried to install on a fresh machine, but no change. It just won't run. Any ideas how to track that down appreciated!
Answering myself:
You need at least Unity patch 4.6.1p1 from http://unity3d.com/unity/qa/patch-releases. It has the following fix:
(654591) - Android: Fixed freeze during startup on most Amazon Kindle devices.
Note that these patches are not advertised automatically. The latest announced and automatic update was. 4.6.1f1, so it requires you to take explicit action.
Regards, habitoti
Confirmed. 4.6.1p1 fixes the problem. (I think habitoti made a typo with the version)
My previous .apk only worked on the Kindle Fire HDX and not the Kindle Fire HD or original Kindle Fire.

I cannot understand what is happening here - I have been creating a small project just to learn about rotation of an image. But this is not relevant here.
So - I have been doing this before and know how heap works, but right know I cannot get it.
In this small Eclipse project I put an image in the drawable-mdpi folder. The image is
1300 * 1950
So simply - this image will occupy about the following amount of ram (heap)
10 MB (1300 * 1950 * 4)
Red, gree, blue and Alpha. Thats it!
But what is happening. Well see the logcat below!!! the heap of 63 MB for my Samsung Galaxy S3 is almost exhausted.

First it allocates properly - you can see 10 MB (according to my calculations) and a heap well above that - that is 20 MB. So far so good. BUT THEN IT CONTINUES TO ALLOCATE MEMORY FAR ABOVE THAT LEVEL. Like there was another image of 40 MB (4 times the previous) so the allocated heap ends up in 61 MB, almost tangenting out of memory.
What did I miss here or is it a bug? I have checked all the drawable folders and I know I run this app and not another. I recreated the project to be sure, even changed the image name. restarted the computer AND the device
this is the source code
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
ImageView imgview = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.image);
Bitmap bm = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.image1);
}
the xml-file
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/image"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
more info: The device is rooted
I am working on Xamarin Android Application.When I run my application I am getting this error :

I have solved this Myself :
uninstall app from device and then run again.If it still not work then open Android SDK Command Prompt
(open Xamrin-studio > Tools > open a Android SDK Command Prompt)
then write following :
D:\Android\android-sdk> adb uninstall (Applicationpackagename)
you can get application package name from Androidmenifest file which is in properties folder.
This will definitely solve the error.
Thank you
You should rename you package name
from
com.iKart.androidapplication
to
com.ikart.androidapplication
notice capital K is changd to small k
Go to settings and app and make sure any app with same package name is not installed try to reinstall again using adb install -r ikart.apk
There are possible solution based on different scenario
Case 1: Uninstalling an app does sometimes leave the data folder behind we need to manually uninstall the app folder from "Application Manager"
Case 2: In case app uninstalled and don't see the app folder [with the app package name] then we need to use adb commands to uninstall these folders. Use [adb shell pm list packages] command which will show a list of all packages available in the device. If you see your app package in the list then run another adb command to remove [adb shell pm uninstall package name]
Case 3: If none of these works then we need to check the options provided by the Xamarin studio. Enable Shared mono runtime under project options.
Hopefully one of these should resolve your issue.
I think you have a problem with facebook activity. this is how you correctly write it:
<activity android:name="com.facebook.FacebookActivity"
android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|screenLayout|screenSize|orientation"
android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar"
android:label="#string/app_name" />
<meta-data android:name="com.facebook.sdk.ApplicationId"
android:value="#string/app_id" />
<provider android:authorities="com.facebook.app.FacebookContentProvider[your app_id (without brackets)]"
android:name="com.facebook.FacebookContentProvider"
android:exported="true" />
In the AndroidManifest.xml settings change the "Install Location" from Default to auto
In my case uninstalling all the previous apps that I had installed using Xamarin on the device solved the problem.
I am using adb shell logcat -v time filename command programmatically to store logs into a file on an android device.
There are some internal logs for memory releasing activities which are stored under " dalvikvm " tag. (See the logs below). I don't have any problem with these logs but due to these logs, the log file gets heavier.
So my concern is reduce logs which have GC_CONCURRENT freed or WAIT_FOR_CONCURRENT_GC text in it.
I also tried to reduce logs by using it's tag, but it removes all logs related to that tag. I don't want to loose required tags under same tag name. I just don't want the logs which have GC_CONCURRENT freed or WAIT_FOR_CONCURRENT_GC text in it.
Is there any way or any adb command to resolve this problem. Thanks in advance.

EDIT
I am using
adb shell logcat -v time | grep -v \"GC_CONCURRENT\\|WAIT_FOR_CONCURRENT_GC\" > " + filename command.
It was working when I gave filename as my computer's local path.
But when I tried same with android device /data/data/packagename/filename.txt, it was not working.
It says that bash: /data/data/packagename/filename.txt : No such file or directory Can anybody suggest solution for that.
Don't forget that you can use host side utilities with the output from logcat. I would recommend using grep. In particular, with it's -v/--invert-match option.
adb logcat | grep -v "GC_CONCURRENT\|WAIT_FOR_CONCURRENT_GC" > filename
The command to print specific logs using tag names. *:S which dont read logs related to GC_CONCURRENT freed and WAIT_FOR_CONCURRENT_GC
Syntax
adb logcat TAG_NAME:PRIORITY
Below line displays only logs with ActivityManager, MY_CUSTOM_TAG.. tags
adb logcat ActivityManager:I MY_CUSTOM_TAG:D ANOTHER_CUST_TAG:D *:S
S — Silent (highest priority, on which nothing is ever printed)

I have been looking to Logcat output for memory performance. With the given data below, how should I understand whether my app is increasing or releasing it? Is it an acceptable performance?

There is a monitor app that comes with the Android SDK. You can use to to look at the memory that your app is using. Take a look at this post on the Android Developers blog.
There is nothing intrinsically wrong with the log output.
I have an app that I have been using for a long while now. It's open source and fell out of development. I started modifying it when it broke and it worked fine on my Epic Touch. I recently picked up the Sprint Note 2 and installed it. It forced closed on me. I decided "OK lets see whats going on and why its FCing". I ran it in an emulator 4.1.2 and it worked fine. When I tried to debug it in eclipse using the real phone my logcat showed problems and never loaded:

I tried wiping the cache, chmoding the folders, but nothing worked. I changed to a different project to see if it was that project but it did the same thing.
Does anyone have any ideas on what the problem could be and how to fix it?
