Yeah, Bluestacks is definitely one way to go at it but still too cumbersome for most people. I've got a page where I have posted common apk files that people need and willing to add more on request. Just leave a comment on the page for an app that you need. http://androidcowboy.com/android-apk-files-download/
Do you have any Kindle friendly links to work with? I tried to download them directly, and of course mega being mega, wants you to download the desktop version of chrome to download. :banghead: (Darn you Mega!!!) I know a lot of people will download from their Kindles, so you know.

Appreciated the article, got as far as 'bluestacks' only to be told that my Windows needed 'SP2'. Not being massively computer literate this confused me. Does this mean in order for this to work i need to update my software from somewhere or am i going to have to shell out for a new laptop??

Sky Go Struggle on-going
I have followed the instructions on the original link and managed to get Sky + working on my kindle and Sky Go installed on the tablet. However, whenever i try to open a channel the same old 'device not supported' text comes up!?
I thought i was getting somewhere only to grind to a halt. Any ideas from the floor?
Blue stacks is great! I have Play Store installed, and it force closes every time I open it; however, I've the log-on services framework installed. Maybe a few other things. I use blue stacks to access my existing play store apps I paid for, back them up using ES File Explorer, and upload onto google drive. I haven't had a problem installing and using paid for play store apps; play store closes, but it only really needs to be installed. It never lets me get past the terms of service agreement before closing.
Anyone getting past that without rooting? That kinda messes with the stock apps--considering I need those to work, rooting will never happen for my kfhd8.9.

I'm talking about the version you use on a Windows or Mac computer. I was using a copy of Chrome for Android already.

Everything installs except vending.apk so I have no Play store. I am rooted. I don't understand because there is already a vending apk in system/apps but if you click that it won't install either. Writing over t with the new one just leads to not being able to install the new one, re-booting doesn't help. I am stuck.

It's not available for the EVO 3D, but it's possible to get it on your phone by doing something like purchasing it on another (rooted) android, backing it up with titanium backup, and restoring the backup onto your phone (also with titanium backup).
EDIT: You can also trick the market into thinking you have a different phone that GTA is available for using a few free apps available in the market; however, I have tried a few different apps and haven't gotten them to work, but other users have reported it works for them.
I followed a market link when it first came out, the game runs fine, no issues.

I have it running flawlessly. However I didn't get it from the Android market on the phone. It installed and downloaded the "required files" without any problems.. Runs in HD, but the controls are a bit annoying, as with most driving games for touchscreen devices.
bought this the morning it came out and works perfectly, cant see why they removed it the next day...
I bought it from my PC via android market:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.rockstar.gta3&hl=en
It downloaded to my phone, I started it up and downloaded the SD Data.
Game runs GREAT!! Although you can't do the Sixaxis on the EVO 3D but you can on the Galaxy Nexus

Hey folks,
The Amazon appstore has Asphalt 6 HD (Kindle Fire Edition) on sale for $0.99. It shows that it is not compatible with the NT.
Has anybody tried this game on an NT? (all reference I found are for the NC).
(Has anybody had luck with other Kindle Fire Edition type of apps?)
Thanks.
I tried it. It says that the App is not availeble for this device, please ask the store for a refund. But it works on my galaxy s2
Thanks Pete. I just saw that it was also available on the Android Market for $.99. Will probably get it there!
well it also doesn´t work from the android market, the app is just not compatible with the nook tablet :S
I spoofed mine as a Nexus S, downloaded it through the Market and it works great!

I tried the droid 3 build.prop and no dice.
Tried the market version of Asphalt 6 and also a diff version I found online. Won't load past the intro screen. On the up side I did get Modern Combat 3, Dead Space, and Shadow Gun running flawlessly.
If you can get the apk, it will run.

I just got my EVO LTE a few days ago, so I haven't gotten around to rooting it yet.
On my original EVO 4G, when I click on a video in the Google+ app, the video plays IN THE APP!
On this phone, it opens a web browser and takes me to the Google+ site where the video is located. And once I'm there, the video's wont play!!! Flash is installed and up to date.
I thought a file association dialogue was supposed to open and ask me which app I wanted to play the video? Is there any way short of rooting (which I don't want to do for at least several more days)??? I changed the association from the default browser to Chrome beta, but Chrome can't play the video's either.
In app associations, there is something called, "streaming link", but the only option to choose is "Streaming Media Player". That's apparently not playing them either.
Thanks.
The same thing happens to me when I click to play a youtube video.

Its because of the Apple patent. There is a mod to fix that in the development section.

Are you talking about the mod that requires root? Because I specifically asked for a way to get the app to do this without root.
I will search the dev section in the hopes you understood that.

I might be, not sure if it requires root but it probably does. Sorry, I never look for root requirements because I am always rooted.

So why then do these videos not even play in a browser? It's bad enough they don't play directly in google+, but they don't even play in the browser that opens when you click on the video!
I don't think that is because of the Apple thing.
same thing happened to me. I downloaeded MX player from the market and instaaled it. Somehow the problem is gone. I restored back the Google Video play and ask me wich player I want to chose from. Both work perfect now.
Well, I broke down and rooted today. Couldn't take it anymore.
In other news, I see Apple decided to finally update their stuff to state of the art 2010. You go, Apple!
Oh, and don't forget to file a lawsuit against Google for stealing your map idea.

Hi,
I recently made a switch to CM9. I was using an App made for webOS called Zite. I like Zite and want to continue using it. I found app in Google Play. I am trying to install Zite from Google Play. But it shows message that "your device is not compatible with this version". I tried modifying build.prop but there was no impact. Is there a way to install Zite on CM9?
Thanks
Do you have any other android devices? You could try side loading from one of them...
Never mind, I uploaded it here for you since it's a free app. Just use your file explorer to install it!

On android zite does not support tablets. Have you tried to side load it? Try to Google zite.apk the only problem with this method is it won't do updates but you might get it to work until they come out with a tablet version.
Sent from my LG-P930 using xda app-developers app
If you can't get Zite working well for you you might want to look at the app called Google Currents. Even when I was using webos I wasn't a big fan of Zite . Currents works pretty well.
Sent from my cm_tenderloin using xda app-developers app
I have never used Zite but as others mentioned, Flipboard (side load required), Google Currents (loads fine from market) & Pulse (market loadable) are a few that work perfectly good on TP.
Thanks for responses. I have Flip board, Google currents, APPY Geek and Pulse in addition to Zite. I use all these apps. I almost exclusively use those . I recollect installing all these from play store with cm9 June version. No side loading. But now (with aug version) it won't let me. Even Flip board says app is not compatible, however I have it already installed. My major issue with Flip board is, it only works in portrait mode.
Zite on webOS is beautiful. I am a business user and am one of those who like webOS's simple user interface.

I had the same problem with 9mm on my s3. Again with mass effect infiltrator on my nexus. ME:infiltrator is EA though.
Transmitted from the cutting edge of my electronic shaving device
Here's my problem with the game... When i use TiBu (i'm rooted) to uninstall the game, it still shows in my app drawer. And after a reboot it fully reinstalls. Even if i didn't save a backup. How the hell do i permanently delete it?
I tried and tried to remove it, even went as far as manually deleting its folders from the system, but seeings as it does not use much space I just disabled it. I have not tried using titanium backup though so maybe try that if you want, besides you'd only reinstall it when JB update is released.
Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using xda app-developers app
I've settled with just freezing it in TiBu. That's the only way it disappears from my app drawer.
You can always just disable the app. Settings. Apps. Find the app select it and disable it. If it doesn't show the disable button. Uninstall the updates then disable.
I disabled the demo of MC3 but I still can't install the full version of MC3.
