Here the apk http://www.mediafire.com/?iu3mpcbdzrwbdez
It doesn't work on my Fire with ICS, just shows blank pages.
Chrome needs to take advantage of the hardware acceleration features, which is not enable in ICS for Kindle yet.
thank you very much
I'm sad. I would love Chrome on my many non ICS Android devices.

How did you get the app to show up? I copied the apk to system/apps, but it doesn't show up on my KF 2nd gen. Play Store and Youtube work fine. Firefox crashes, so currently I have no browser...
Flash the AOSP jb ROM n u get chrome to work. It's working on mine flawlessly.

Hi All,
Amazon's "Silk" browser has been ported to other Android devices.
I tried it in my optimus one running CM 7.2.0 by adfad666 and it worked fine
Here is the link to the thread which contains the files and the installation instructions

Check this out !
I try this browser is very beautiful but it also slow compare to others browsers.
Yeah, that is why the Kindle Fire was disappointing for most of the people. You could, however, have replace the Silk on Kindle Fire with something more functional.
I wasn't able to get it running on my Optimus V running IHO BACKside CM7.2.

Any time I had issue with getting an app to work. I'd buy it off my GSII or Amaze. Then back up the APK and push it to my Mytouch 4G Slide. You bought it, so there's nothing wroung with pushing it to another device. As long as its yours.

I had to uninstall Hellfire CM7 and ReloadedROM CM9 because neither one allows me to install any of the "Kindle Fire Edition" games that i bought off amazon store.
In addition, most of the games don't show up in google play store either. My phone can't download them as it says not compatible either so I have no way to officially download the games that I bought.
I think we have to use MODACO ROM for now. It is the only usable ROM if you want to watch movies, use Play music and play the games for Kindle Fire without frustration. No CM7 or CM9 that I have tried can do any of this as well as MODACO.
If anyone can come up with a way for the games to work please let us know it would make those great ROMS worth using. I know the HWA will be solved soon with the new kernel, so maybe that would fix most trouble?
Idk I love the ics cm9 Roms just need to games to follow Me there.... that's what's holding me back

I used this to test Flash Player on my Kindle Fire and thought some of you would find this interesting...kinda makes you realize how significantly infinite the universe is and how we are such a significantly miniscule part of it!

Good for test, my Kindle barely handled it. The same as my brain
thanks

I have tried to get Amazon Instant Video on SGT 2 10.1, but i havent got i it working. Have anyone tried to get this working, now it works one Nook tablet. Do anyone now how to get it working.
As of right now the apk does not work on ICS. If the kindle fire ever gets updated it will likely work for us

No problems on my gt-p5113 using Amazon prime to watch shows. I'm using Apex browser pro without any issues like stuttering or lagging but I'm not using an apk, just viewing on the Amazon site itself.
Hey all,
I have the wired kindle app and it used to work great on my nook running cm9 but now force closes on the n7. Anyone know why and how I could fix it?
Thanks.

apps designed for the kindle fire will not work with the Nexus 7. there is no way around this.
you can install the amazon app store and install apps from their, but kindle fire apps will not work.
Can I ask why?
Would it work on a custom Rom? For instance once cm10 is released, couldn't it work then?

incredibly unlikely.
The kindle fire uses an insanely customized version of android like the Nook Color and apps that are made specifically for those devices won't work on any other version of android.
In some cases they can work on other devices, such as the amazon video on demand app which can work on a nook color running CM7, but it won't work on any device not running android 2.3 and on a 1024x600 resolution.

That's weird because it was working fine on my nook color running cm9.
Maybe if the new kindle comes out at a higher resolution and the woods are optimized for that...then maybe that'll work.
Thanks for your help.

as i said, the Amazon VOD app worked on the nook color because it was the exact same version of android and the same resolution.
Any other variant and it won't work. Now yes the new kindle fire will have a larger resolution. but there it could be the same situation. same android version + same resolution otherwise it won't work.
