Amazon Appstore (Not Amazon Underground)



At least at the moment you can still get the old Amazon Appstore apk instead of the Amazon Underground one from the following direct link (got via using the amazon.es link to get the apk)

Change Default Search Engine for Amazon Launcher



Is this possible? I really want Google as the default engine, and I guess I am too lazy to open up the Google app every time I want to look something up. I have looked through all the settings, but can't find anything. Anyone else found anything, or are we stuck will Bing for the time being?



Difference between us and ibtl n6 on amazon



I noticed the q/a on amazon for the 0 n6. It says the intl wont work well in the us. Why is this? What limitations are there on that phone that wont let you use it in the us if u have an intl model. I live overseas and just curios if its better to get the us or intl version. What limits are on both. Im not to experienced regarding what my providors needs are in a phone to work other than its using orange gsm lines. I did notice my pos htc m7 say 4g on top and i also believe i saw it say Lte when i was using it but im not certain.

The price for n6 has not come down and sells for 550 bucks still over here.

Last question. Will this phone still sell in 6 months? Will stores still stock it?
Thank u

Having trouble with amazon app store on Nook Simple touch



I've rooted my Nook Simple Touch, running 1.2.1, and I've been trying to use the Amazon App store so that I can get the Kindle app. The problem is, it's searching without bringing up any apps and I can't log into my amazon account. When I try to sign in, it says "There was a temporary error signing you in. Please try again in a few moments." The problem is, it's not temporary. I've been trying for ages. If I search for the kindle app specifically, I get a box that says "Content could not be downloaded because of a network connectivity error." I'm connected to my home wifi and I can navigate the web on my Nook. Any ideas on what's going wrong here?

Rooted with Gapps - hoto prevent Amazon App store redirect?



Hi,

Is there any way to automatically link to the google play store instead of the amazon app store when clicking external links? Thank you for any help.

Amazon uk



Anyone knows if the 6p will be available on uk Amazon? I £100 voucher and I could use it to beat the price of the phone by bit.
How was it last year with nexus 6? Was it long after release date to see it on Amazon?

Remove Amazon Underground restriction for country



Hello!
I'm from Spain and nowadays Amazon Underground doesn't work in this country. I've created an account in amazon.com (my own account has registered my adress) and removed the gps and localization permissions with permission master, and then removed the cache. Still doesn't work. Anyone knows how to "cheat" on location for using Underground?

Protected Z4 Tablet from Amazon Help!



A week ago I purchased a used Xperia Z4 tablet from Amazon. I had been wanting this tablet since it was announced and when I saw a used one for 6 I couldn't resist.
When I received the tablet it was in like new condition Plastic still on the screen etc., but when I powered it on it went into protect mode.
Oh well I figured I would just go on XDA an I would have it fixed in no time. Well I was wrong lol.
With this new MXTP software at bootloader level and no way to unlock root or anything else once activated, I gave up and called Amazon. They couldn't help me get out of protect mode. I called Sony.
Sony told me that I could send it in to be repaired. When they tried to create an rma they didn't know how because the Tablet has not been released in the USA, and it is not in there system.
They would have call there repair facility and figure out how to get it repaired.
After a week and a half of phone calls, Sony finally told me none of there repair facilities in the USA know how to work on this tablet. And They could not tell me where I could get it fixed.
Does anyone know how to fix this? or where in the USA I can get this tablet fixed?
Thanks in advance.

No Amazon Prime from eBay Reseller



Caution! Like many others, I purchased two fire phones via eBay from a seller named qualitycellz for 0 each. The phones were sealed in the original retail boxes. Upon registering the phones to my Amazon account I did not receive the additional years of prime. I reached out to Amazon and received the following response last night. I contacted the seller on eBay for a refund and have not yet received a response after two days.

Amazon Response:

Hello,

I'm sorry to hear you haven't receive the Prime membership associated with Fire Phones you purchased.

I'd like to inform that Amazon and AT&T are no longer selling the Fire Phone.

Only purchases made from Amazon or AT&T authorized resellers were eligible for the limited time offer of a full year of Prime with the purchase of a Fire Phone.

Third-party sellers are not authorized to make this offer in connection with the sale of the device.

Further, I checked your account and see that the Fire Phones (XXXX and XXXX) was purchased from a third-party seller.

Since you purchased the Fire Phone from third-party seller, your device is not eligible for free Prime Membership.

If the seller (from you purchased) listed the device with free prime membership, please contact them directly as they listed the promotion.

If they aren't able to help you with this, you can return the Phone to them for full refund.

If you've anymore queries, you can always contact us via email or phone by visiting the below link and we'll help you right away.
