[Q] Delete Amazon app keep apk? - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone sorted out how to disassociate the free apps from amazon from the amazon app? Id like to keep the apks but not the Amazon store... any ideas? Delete me if not cool Mr. Mod.
Cheers.

Don't know how to do that, but wondering why you use Amazon? They don't have anything you can't find in the Market, do they?

I had it installed and it sucked my battery down fast, deleted it and lost all the free apps I downloaded.

I used it to get Angry Birds Rio. Had to give them credit card info to get a free app, lol. Of course, 2 days later it was in the Market. Wonder if I download from the Market if the game results will be overwritten. Oops. Sorry for the thread jack.

if you backup the amazon rio app with tibu, then uninstall it and install google's rio, you can restore the app data which will load your progress from the first game to the second

Awesome. Thanks. I'm going to close that Amazon account.

So youre saying if I use tibu and dl the free version of an app when I restore app and data it will be the paid app in place of free app and the app will be disassociated with amazon?

I haven't tried it yet, but sounds like you can backup your free Amazon apps with Tibu, uninstall free Amazon apps, get rid of Amazon app store, download replacement apps from Market, restore app data from Tibu. Not sure if this would work with Amazon paid apps.

The Amazon store puts the apk file on the phone. If you go into my files and go to Android/com.amazon**/cache you will see a strung of apks that you have downloaded and installed... you don't need the amazon store to keep the apps in stalled anyway...
The files in the amazon folder are oddly named like vapdn738840.apk but you can rename them on your computer once you figure out what they are. And if you looking for a place for free apps I would check out applanet or blackmart
Good Luck
PM me & let me know how it goes

Even if you do you will eventually end up with the new one it automatically downloads when you go into the market.

I just downloaded it the other day. Make sure you content filtering isn't hiding it.
I rebooted and checked my market settings, I'm not seeing it? I guess if ya still have the app -don't uninstall.

Thx for the helpful suggestions. Market enabler requires root, and thats beyond my mental capacities....I barely got this typed up. Lol

There's the amazon appstore which is now available isn't it? That gives a frebie every day.
Edit: still only available to us customers, but I'm sure they're releasing it soon...

[Q] KindleFree (Free your kindle) APK

Can someone please upload an apk for the KindleFree (Free your kindle) app. I normally would buy it, but I dont have a gift card, or something to pay for it.. Thanks
There is a free version in the play store.... My guess is you want the paid version though.

how do i use apps that are not from my country in google play, like dragon ball ultim

Allowing installation of unknown sources would be a start:
Looking up sideloading android on Google would be step 2:
Knowing apps are apk files is useful, as well.
I can't tell you more.
Look around for market enabler app. It may work for you.
