So, i know the app store is only for US and not really for us... but because most of us have custom roms, were able to use it.
So i tried it, and it said its not available in my region. Is there anyway i can bypass this ? :S so that i can get apps
type amazon appstore canada in google and you will get the info in the first link.
I would like to include a link but I still dont have my 8 posts required to add links it seems.
no longer works, just tried it
the appstore is now working for Canada!!
I'm still getting a message saying that "Amazon appstore for Android is not yet available in your region". Anyone else getting this? What's strange is that I've downloaded from the Amazon appstore before.

Same thing is happening to me. I just downloaded the app store application but can't install anything. It must be opening up to Canada sometime soon, right?

I tried to download Charlie Brown Christmas App and was denied "...region". I was still able to download my previous purchased apps. Other free apps were also denied.
EDIT: use a VPN (hotspotshield) to purchase the app on your computer. It will then be available on your android device for download & install under "My Apps".

Just tried it on my PC, its not working, still getting the same message, and apparently for some reason amazon.com is still detecting I am in Canada (I get the "shopping from Canada banner").
Strange that hotspotshield is indeed working (verified my IP using several methods and even got region locked hulu to work without a problem).

I am trying to install it via the Market online and the G-tablet is not listed as being compatible with it.
Dled it last night love it runs like a charm on vegan rom
I don't see the tablet edition available...All i get is the phone version in market...
I have searched google for an apk file and no one has one. The tablet version isnt in the android market even after being fixed and the online android market doesnt support vegan so i conclude we cant get it yet
I just grabbed it from the market, and it worked fine. I did get a message that it was for the galaxy tab.
I am running VEGAn 5.1.1.

My market will only see the phone edition of the app.
Can anyone pull the tablet edition apk and post it for download?

Same here.
APK would be greatly appreciated. Really looking forward to seeing some tablet optimized apps on the gTab
I just found it in the market. I am using vegan-tab. In settings, applications...clear cache AND data for Market, then force stop. Then clear data and force stop Google Services Framework. Reboot, accept terms of services in market, and you should find it. I just did this and it worked. The key is to also clear Market data. Hope this helps!
I found it but it says my device is not compatible. I did however able if I want to download the phone version.
Does it display in landscape? Is it free or just one free issue?
It displays in portrait only, but I think the layout is great. The app is free but the subscription is not. I get the issues in the app for free because I have a print subscription, but I believe you can also pay for a digital only subscription (don't know how much that costs).
Same issues here - can't find it in the market and can't find an apk on the web. If anyone could post the apk it would be much appreciated. I have a print subscription that gets recycled every week - the landfills are crying!
Don't really feel like uploading it anywhere, but feel free to pm me your email if anyone wants it. Backed it up with astro.
+1 for not linking the apk. Last thing anyone needs (XDA included) is the ire of sports illustrated. If you take your time you can find it on teh intertubes.

-5 for Mantara for not nowing anyone can have the apk since you have to have a subscription to gain access to the content anyway!
i recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab wifi version and I tried doing a search for Yahoo Messenger in the Market but it doesn't give any result, says that 'no application found'.
but on my mini pro, Yahoo messenger shows up so i end up downloading it in my mini pro and transfer it via BT on my SGT.
any idea why it's not showing in SGT's Market? is there a way for me to be able to fix it?
I'm running Overcome 1.4.2 with Globe as my carrier and it shows up fine in the Market. Didn't see it on stock though.
i've heard of Overcome but i'm not sure if i can use that on my SGT since mine is the Wifi version.
here's what's going on with the Market that I have on my SGT Wifi version.
At first i thought that Yahoo Messenger is the only app that I can't find but unfortunately, I can't locate GO Launcher as well. It shows the Go Launcher themes but not the app itself.
So I'm assuming that there might also be other known apps that might not show. Is there a way to fix or patch the Market so that it would show the apps?
i've tried MarketEnabler, MoreLocale2 but it's a no go .. i've seen someone post a copy of Market here. if i overwrite the existing Market app, won't that cause a problem or will that fix the problem?
anyone?

found a temporary solution .. i've installed Amazon's AppStore, AppBrain and Applanet.
Appbrain relies on Market so that's really a no-go. Applanet works since it shows the files that I need, like, Yahoo Messenger for instance. It even shows the plug-in.

Hello you all, I'm looking for the "USA Today for Tablets" App - only the version for smartphones will show up in the market... Hope anyone can upload the APK for me and all the others!
Thanks!
Google can be helpful!!! https://market.android.com/details?id=com.usatoday.android.tablet.news
If all would be so easy Guess what? I've tried that already but it won't let me install the app to my device. That is the reason why I've come here and asked to the apk

I went into the market on my Xoom, went to the Featured Tablet Apps section, and it was right there at the bottom. It installed fine.
How are you not seeing it in the market? When you try to install it from the website (the tablet app linked by handshake87) it should show you your tablet as an option to install it to. If you can't install it to the tablet it should have a reason shown as to why you can't.
If you can't install it from the market or the website then you have another issue you should probably look into. Since I just installed it I can get the APK using titanium if you still need it.
I think the problem might be that I'm accessing the store from Germany and it's a branded T-Mobile device...
So how about anyone uploading the APK for me? Would really appreciate it!
The apk might not work since it's coming from a U.S. xoom versus your version.
I would love to try if anyone would upload the apk
Not responsible for what happens if you try using the file (e.g. soft/hard brick, bootloops, etc.), but here you go from a U.S. wifi version.

If you're getting the error in the market that says something about the app not being available for your carrier, you may want to try what i had to do on my x10. If you're on AT&T in the US and try searching for tethering apps they are not there. So what I ended up doing was putting my phone in airplane mode and using wifi (removing the sim card and working on wifi does the same thing) and once I did that, the apps would show.
So if the apk file posted doesn't work for you (i see no reason why it shouldn't) try removing the sim from your xoom, connect to the internet over wifi, and look in the market again.
Hello, I'm from Serbia, on VIP Mobile, and recently (approx 2 months ago) our carrier added possibility to buy applications from Android Market ...
I've bought few apps, and suddenly paid apps disappeared from market totally
Only free apps are available on phone, and also on market.android.com ...
I couldn't even update apps I've already bought!
A friend of mine who is also on same carrier reported the same thing, so I thought rooting my phone will fix that, and it did, but only partially:
When using market enabler, I can now update apps I've purchased, and also download some free apps I couldn't before, also I can find and list paid apps, but when I click on the price button to buy it, it takes me to the "Accept & buy" screen, but with long "Prepairing.." label, followed by error message: "The item you were attempting to purchase could not be found."
Is there any fix for that ?
I really want to buy some apps (such as Mobile Odin and ScreenCast), but I'm not able to :S
Try buying from the desktop market and sending the downloads to your phone.

Also try clearing the data for the market app by going to settings>applications>manage applications>all>market.
Force stop first, clear cache, then clear data.
I had some apps installed showing not installed in the market recently and I can't update them so I cleared the data and it all went back to normal.

I said I can't open anything on market.android.com, when I search for stuff it doesn't show in results, and when I click on a direct link of some paid app, I get "This app is not compatible with your country" (or something like that)

Didn't help
I get the same error message ...
Okay, I've fixed my problem
I've tried clearing the data again, but also went on "Uninstall updates", which downgraded my market to old green-ish/yellow-ish version, and when I tried buying app using that one, it closed and reopened with new version (automatically updated), and now I'm able to buy stuff on market again !
I have the same problem, tried your method but I only get free apps. Are you using market enabler after uninstaling market updates and clearing data and cache? Also, what rom do you have?
I have a quick question for my fellow Verizon S6 Edge users.
I use the Amazon app quite a bit and when going in to actually use it for the first time today it didn't open. So, I went on the Google Play store to see if there was an update or something, and to my surprise I didn't see it in my list of installed apps?!?!? Went into my application manager and it's definitely installed. I went to uninstall it and reinstall and of course it was one of the preinstalled apps and can only be disabled... So, after disabling I go into the play store and search Amazon to find "Amazon Shopping" app and it was the only one there for the actual store. Now, is that a new app from Amazon??? The self titled "Amazon" app is no longer even on the app store, yet it sits installed on my phone but disabled.
Just wanted to know if the main Amazon app works for you guys, or if you now have to Amazon apps because the first no longer works. Trying to see if it's just me or not.
I've rebooted, but since it's a preinstalled app that's not working... I'm not sure what else I can do if it's something I'm doing wrong. Wiped data in the application manager, re-enabled all the amazon apps that were pre installed to see if that helped and nothing. Just think it's weird that it doesn't even show up when searching for it in the app store, just the "Amazon Shopping" app shows up.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Works fine for me, ive updated to current version and have purchased with it etc....

Hmm, weird. Well I went on APKMirror.com and got the latest Amazon apk and updated it that way and it worked, that app that is... it still didn't show up in my app store for updates and what not. Also, it seems that because I have android wear installed it's giving me the "Amazon Shopping" app. They both work the same but with one exception, the shopping version works with a smart watch with some sort of voice commands. Just didn't want both installed if they did the same thing, no need for wasted space.
Thanks!

I noticed when I opened Amazon for the first time on this phone it made me log in through the Amazon App Store, which was strange to me. After I logged in through the App Store, the regular Amazon App updated and then it worked.

The pre-installed Amazon app is the "complete" version which you can't get through Google Play store due to Google changing the rules last fall. See here http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/1...ay-store-because-of-its-appstore-integration/ But you can still get it directly from Amazon and still kept up to date by Amazon.
The only app in the Play store itself is shopping only, hence the name.
