[Q] Amazon appstore on CM7? - Kindle Fire General

Anyone have the appstore working on cyanogen? I'm getting Fc'd.

You might try reloading it or saving it from another device it works on and moving it over that way? That is how I did mine.

thats what i did and it now works

Zinio E-Magazine Reader

One thing I missed when I had the Apple iPad was Zinio App. I had a few nice magazine subscriptions on there, such as PC Mag, Cars & Driver, etc....
Thanks to people over @ XDA, they were able to port an Android app version..
FYI

You need to install all 3 APK.
Installed all three. Just force closes for me.
Which one of the 3 did you launch? All you need to launch is Reader Hub. Works for me. I am reading my magazine on it as I am typing this.
Works for me. Now I just need some magazines
Sent from my Xoom using XDA App
Thanks for the tip - just installed the 3 apks and works fine for me!
Was able to log in to my Zinio account and access my library. Looks really great on the Xoom, better than on my iPad, I think.
So what's the deal, why won't Zinio just release this into the market already??

From what I gathered, they are working on Android App at the moment. There is a link on their site to notify you once it is release
droid x force close
Installed all 3 apks On my droid x but zinio wont work it only force closes (android version 2.2.1 not rooted) any advise?
I used the files from my old Streak 7 to install Zinio on my new A500. It is two files, they may need to be in /system/app & will of course need the permissions set to 644.

Occasionally it spouts off about some error, but it works 100%.

[Q] Market apps requiring location are now missing/incompatible with Adam

While chatting in IRC "cos" brings this to our/ my attention, that it seems like location based apps are now missing and deemed incompatible with the Adam.
Well this seems to be new in the last week, maybe even since the weekend.
I had several apps installed on my Adam from the market; dolphin browser HD and mini, as well as Locus Free, firefox, google maps, gps status and many others are now missing and grey'd out as incompatible with the Adam through the online android market.
Anyone else notice this?
-CC
They show for me but I'm running the CM7 ROM.
still there for me on Beast
I am on stock beta, used the market + root + adhoc hack.
Guessing a build.prop edit is at hand, anyone have any suggestions?
Might have to take a look at what's on other roms ie beast that have it working still.
-CC
EDIT: just to test I flashed vegan 04042011, as others have claimed to not having this issue with that rom. And same issue, shows up in market account, when looking for gps status or dolphin browser hd, they show grey'd out as incompatible..
I thought perhaps something to do with activating AT&T, I used market enabler to switch carrier to Tmobile, same results.
Found something else, my market updates itself to version 2.3.4 or 2.3.6, vegan came with 2.2.11.. Is there a way to stop it from auto-updating?
EDIT2: Flashed Beast 2.1.4 rom and it's market version 2.3.4 and the apps missing or incompatible with the previously listed roms do show..
I had the same issue on Utopia Beta 2 and VEGAn 04042011, but it showed most if not all the apps on Beast 2.1.4.
Rothnic mentioned it may have something to do with permissions, the issue with market not showing location based apps, Dougie187 suggested I copy Beast rom permissions, since it does work and put them on my stock adam.
So that's what I did and it works!
-CC
I've got the same issue, can't find maps, dolphin browser HD or any other gps based app on the market. I've got the stock rom with root+market, can you tell me please how to solve the problem??? I don't know where to find the permissions you're talking about nor how to put them on the adam.
Please I really need help.
Many Thanks
Utopia
Working fine on root+Utopia rom
hi CC, same issue with me. .please elaborate. the process to transfer permissions on my Adam running Eden's 2.4
PLEASE help it's really an important issue!!!

EdenX should not have this issue, as it includes much more than just the standard root+market hack.
I would ask the dev of that rom directly in their thread.

Try this:
Settings — Applications — Manage Applications
Choose All
Choose Market
Force Stop
Back out, choose Google Service Framework
Force Stop
Clear Data
Back out to the homescreen, run the Market (it should fail – that’s what we want)
Reboot
Wait at least one minute after the system boots up, then retry the Market.

[Q] How do I get the Gtalk icon to show on the Fire?

I side loaded GTalk and it works great, but like installing the Market there is no icon that shows up. I used MarketOpener to get a Market icon, but the only way I can get to Gtalk to by going into Titanium Backup and launching from there.
Anyone know if a way to get that icon to show up?

This is your first post?
o Are you rooted? Assumed but you really didn't say.
o What ROM are you using?
o If Stock are you using the Amazon Launcher?
Been visiting the forum since I got my Droid over a year ago, but yes that is my first post.
I am rooted with the stock amazon ROM and Amazon Launcher.
I've followed several guides in the Fire forum to root and install the gapps. Everything worked great. Like many others, the Google Market icon did not show up in the launcher but I used the MarketOpener app to put one on there. GTalk was not included in my gapps zip, and was not available in the Market (not sure why) so I side loaded from my Droid with CM7. I'm having the exact issue with GTalk that a lot of people have with installing the Market; there's is no icon for it.
I was just wondering if anyone had a work around to get the icon to show up?
Gtalk is not a market app, which is why you don't find it there.
You can load it, but the Kindle Launcher is somewhat limited in what it shows. That is why the Market Opener was created. There is no equivalent version of that for Gtalk.
If you use another launcher, you will have no problem seeing it as a normal app.
krelvinaz thanks.
Question:
I notice in your sig that you're using a custom ROM on your Fire, MoDaCo.
How do you like this and how is it vs something like CM7? I already have CW Recovery installed so I'm tempted to backup my current and try out MoDaCo. If I don't like it I guess I can revert back.
Any install 'gotchas' when installing MoDaCo or is it just moving the ROM to the SD and running it via recovery?
Thanks again.
GR6 is a pretty stock ROM that has some nice tweaks in it, like location services working, Amazon market (now Google play) sees it as a transformer instead of kindle, meaning more apps show up.
Installation is very easy, you don't even need to wipe.
I use the ADW launcher 99.9% of the time. I can do most Android apps and still use Amazon Prime video as well.
Been solid as a rock since I loaded it.
ICS doesn't impress me.

List of Working Apps after Root

I figured it would be a good time to start a list of apps that work with the Kindle Fire HD after root:
Deadspace: Runs GREAT!
Google Movies: RUns great and signs in/syncs after installing from System/app folder
Youtube: Works perfectly after installing from system/app folder
Shadowgun: Runs fine but is upside down, FIX: Use screenlock and it works peachy.
Osmos: Same as Shadowgun
Wings of Glory: Works fluidly.
Google Music: Syncs and works flawlessly. NOTE: Not quite there. Shutting down requires a re-install for it to work again. Looking into this.
Google Books: Works great
Antutu: Runs fine, but again, the G-sensor seems to affect the orientation when running GPU tests.
N64oid: Runs GREAT!
FPSa: Runs great as well
More to come...
Ive been able to get quite a few apps to work as well. Some required google maps files in order to work. So I took 2 files from my EVO 3D. The files I used are "com.google.android.maps.jar", which goes in system/ framework. And "com.google.android.maps.xml" which goes in etc/ permissions. This allowed me to sideload and run the CVS, Best Buy, Best Buy Reward Zone, and Best Buy game trade apps. I had to manually enter in my location. But they now work.
Other apps Ive gotten to work are:
Facebook, Fandango, Busy Box, cache cleaner, Dead Trigger, Drop Box, Gmail, Quick Boot, Root Browser, and Titanium.
Has anyone got WatchESPN app to work? If that's working then i will upgrade from my original kindle fire.
Has anyone got Google play magazines to work?

It installed fine for me. No VoLTE in the beta though, but the no nav bar gestures make up for that to me lol.
Other possible dealbreakers for folks - Netflix and Amazon only play in PiP mode. Hulu, Plex and everything else I've tried have played fine though.
