New Kindle Fire HDX

Is any information currently available concerning Skype compatibility with the new Kindle Fire HDX?

The video received by the Kindle Fire HDX is several seconds delayed from the audio.  Very annoying.  The quality is excellent and the person I'm talking to sees me fine.  I don't beleive it's a network issue because this does not happen when using Skype on other devices with my home network.
I just bought a new Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 and i am having the same issue; The video is very clear but it lags behind the audio for a couple of seconds. I tried uninstalling/reinstalling Skype and still have the same issues. I have several other devices and desktops in the house to test with over Wifi and they all work beautifully with each other. It is only the brand new Kindle HDX that is behaving badly. I have not had issues with Skype in a very long while on any platform so this has me completely baffled. Any thoughts?

  • Is there a version of firefox that will run on the Kindle Fire HDX 7?

    I have a new Kindle Fire HDX 7" and I would rather be running Firefox(as I do on my: desktop/laptop/netbook/Macbook/ Galaxy3 phone/Ipod....as you can see I am a Firefox devotee!). Is there an app that is compatible with the Fire HDX? thanks!!!

    Although the program installs but fails to run on the HDX so I'm afraid this answer is wrong. The HDX is the most recent release from Kindle(Amazon) the Settings are totally different. The hardware is also different. Please make sure answers are more up to date.

  • Live account not supported by Kindle Fire HDX?

    I just signed up for a new account, which also involved creating a new Microsoft Live Account, so I could use Skype on my new Kindle Fire HDX. My login works fine on the website, doesn't work at all on my Kindle Fire HDX 7".

    Mine won't work either going through Microsoft Live.  It'll ring twice and then fail.  Every time.

  • No audio on new Kindle 7 HDX

    I can't get audio to work, either on a call or listening to voice messages. The call ring is fine. When I answer the other person can see and hear me and I can see them, but I can't hear a thing. I've tried clearing data and cache and restarting the Kindle. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Skype app, but nothing works. Kindle support has no clue. Anyone else having the same problem consistently?

    Have you tried the Skype test call service? The issue could be at the other end of the connection. The test call will let you confirm that your audio levels are OK. It is a good way to check your Kindle's output volume. Some online video content has very high volume levels so your device volume could be lower than you realise. 
    If the test call shows that you really do have an issue then you can try resetting  your Kindle (see next para for instructions). Letting your Kindle go into standby does not clear the state of your applications. Powering off via the prompt can clear some issues but it does not always do the trick. No guarantee that this will help but it is well worth trying. I have only had my Kindle Fire HDX for 3 days but I have needed to do this twice after installing new apps. 
    To reset your Kindle Fire HDX you press and hold the on/off button for around 20 seconds. Ignore the power down prompt when it appears. Wait for the screen to go dark and for the word 'Kindle' to appear as your Kindle re-initialises.

    Don't know of any reason why it won't. 

  • Kindle Fire HDX - Skype video calling, video is de...

    When I use Skype on my Kindle Fire HDX 7" I get really good calls when it comes to audio calls. When it comes to video calling though, the sound is excllent as well as the video quality, but the video is 3-4 seconds delayed in contrast to the sound received. This happens only on my end. The other person can see me and listen to me well and in synch. I tried calling amazon throught their video help. The video looked fine and I had no issues with that. So I guess it has something to do with Skype as an application.

    Wait for a fix from Apple or Skype.
    Best.

  • How do i transfer a apple home screen to a kindle fire HDX?

    Ok so I have always loved the Apple home screen layout but instead of getting me a apple device for my birthday I got a kindle fire HDX. How do I transfer home screens? PLEASE I know for sure there is a way to do it.

    That does not make sense.  Home Screens are part of the software. The Kindle Fire has its own homescreen designed by its developers the way it is. 
    Also what does this have to do with remote desktop?
    Apple Remote desktop lets you access an Apple computer remotely from another Apple computer.
    Even if it was possible to somehow emulate an Apple Desktop on a kindle fire, that would be a question to ask in the Kindle fire forums not here.

    There is no more Flash Player for Android and there won't be another. Android is no longer compatible with Flash Player since June of 2012. That WON'T change.
    Historically:
    2008 (March) - Apple® releases the first iPhone, using iOS®. Steve Jobs is insistent and adamant that iOS® is NOT compatible with Flash® and NEVER WILL BE. Jobs' reasoning is that playing Flash® content is processor consumptive and it drains batteries, thus shortening the life of them in mobile devices. In six years, that hasn't changed. Not for the iPhone®, iPad® or iPod® Touch™. It never will change and there never will be a Flash Player® for iOS®.
    2008 (September) - Google® introduces Android™ to compete with iOS®, for people who don't want to pay what Apple® is asking for an iPhone®. Android®, unlike its Apple® counterpart IS compatible with Flash®.
    2012 (June) - Android™ (Google®) announces the end of support for Flash® with Android™ 4.3. Going forward NO Android™ devices will be compatible with Flash®, but older versions on older devices can still be loaded with "legacy" builds still available from Adobe®. Android™ (Google®) cites the same reason Apple® did for the decision to end support for Flash®. Adobe® continues to release security patches to Flash Player® for Android™ until September 2013, announcing the "end of life" for Android™ Flash® September 10.
    Android (Google) recommends you use either Dolphin or Puffin as your browser if you must view Flash content, but they try to discourage it for the above outlined reasons.

  • Download to a Kindle Fire HDX

    If I want to download Firefox to use as a browser on my Kindle Fire HDX, I should download the android version?

    Hello,
    To answer your question, yes, since Firefox is only available for Android (on mobile devoces). And the Kindle Fire operating system is based off of Android, so yes, you download the Android version.
    Here is the direct download link for Firefox:
    https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/releases/latest/android/multi/fennec-35.0.multi.android-arm.apk (tap fennec-35 link)
    This download link was taken from https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android
    And also check the above link if you would like to download other versions of Firefox, e.g. Firefox Beta, Aurora...

  • Amazon say they are waiting for Mozilla to work on Kindle Fire HDX, you say you are waiting on them: can you work together?

    This is part of a response I received from the Amazon team:
    ..."From your e-mail I understand that you would like to know when you would be able to use Firefox on your Kindle Fire HDX.
    I have investigated the matter and can confirm that the Mozilla are yet to support Kindle Fire devices and have therefore not yet made a compatible version of their Firefox Browser available in our Amazon Appstore catalog. We continue to send customer feedback to Mozilla so they may consider making this app available in the future, however at this time, we are unable to verify their plans. Our apologies for any disappointment this may cause."
    Can you talk to each other and get it sorted, please?

    I really wonder how much in the loop that person is on this situation to have responded this way.
    Mozilla did have Firefox (as of version 9.0) on Amazon store but Amazon modified and resigned the apk which caused problems so it was pulled shortly after.
    Mozilla has contacted Amazon many times about modifying this policy. So far they have been unwilling.
    Please do not comment on these bugs as they are for reading on history and progress.
