When did AT&T finally start let us AT&T guys use the Amazon App store? I noticed today I can now get the Apps there. I know I signed up to be notified when this would start but didn't get an email or I just missed it. I was able to get my 1st Free App this Morning....
if you rooted your phone and then enabled non-market apps, then you could have been using it all along.
i've been using it since they started it, although the free apps have been really sucky lately.

LOL.. I am Rooted didn't know I could been doing it.
Thanks
Yeah, I had it the first day.
The first apps they gave out were awesome, now its all bull****.
Not to mention a lot of their apps are older versions, and Amazon's customer service is mostly phone call based, you can't get the problem solved with email alone.

The free app is decent about once/week..but that's a far sight better than nothing
just keep in mind that whatever app you download from the amazon market, requires amazon market to be installed if you restore it in the future (via TiBu or similar app). You cannot restore an amazon app and exclude the market
Good to know, I didn't realize that. Though I did have a few issues early on with apps not... "authenticating" I think, it's been a while since I've seen it happen tbh.

I restore apps from amazon market by using TiBu and haven't had issues. Is it because I am also restoring amazon market at the same time that I haven't had issues?

Exactly. If you ever uninstall amazon market (or not restore it with tibu) they won't work anymore. I know this pisses off some people, but I don't think it's really that big a deal.
Not really, just leave it on, check the free app daily, otherwise leave it alone. But get any normally free apps from the main market, Amazon's evaluation process keeps them a version behind on most from what I saw.

me neither. I like to see what they offer each day. Once in a while, it's a really good app. I wonder if Freezing the amazon market will still allow you to use the apps from it.

Out of curiosity I just tested this. Freezing the Amazon Appstore causes both "Free Apps of the Day" and also regularly purchased paid apps to stop working. If you buy it on Amazon you have to keep the Appstore running and signed in to your account. I suppose I'll direct my future purchases toward the Google Market based on that and a few other variables.
Why do people care that amazon appstore needs to be installed for apps to work? Is anyone planning to uninstall it? The android market is installed and I don't think too many folks plan to uninstall it
I don't like being forced to keep the amazon store open, but I understand the need to. Otherwise they'd have to fiddle with every paid app so it checks with their servers not google to see if it's authentic. They're behind enough on their versions already.
Its also a bit annoying if you forget to install the amazon store with your backup.

changelog:
Adds +1 For Apps And Games, Pin Number For Purchases, And More…
there’s a brand-new settings menu, as well as click-to-read explanations of app permissions (not developer customizable, unfortunately). There’s also a brand-new Market icon to spruce things up.
Oh, and did we mention you can now use a custom PIN for purchases on your phone, instead of leaving your Google Checkout wide open for anyone that picks up your device? If you have kids, or your phone is stolen, this is one awesome feature to have – and really, it makes a lot of sense.
Root access is not required, but you’ll need Unknown Sources enabled in the Settings -> Applications menu to install it.
will the market be updated to this anyways? does it show all apps or not?
Eh I don't know don't feel so sure about This.

After screwing around with the new apk for 15 mins, it seems the missing apps problem may be fixed. I am currently holding my breath though...
Edit - immediately after making this post the problem returned. I can stop holding my breath now.
just installed. Seems ok.
How do I install? -1.bin , right?

lol you guys think i would really post a virus or something. i found it. if you dont believe its true google android market 3.1.3. and yes the missing apps thing is there still. i use titanium backup. market doctor feature to fix that tho
For some reason this market is showing all apps for me that I've installed from Amazon store as if they need updating. When I yet updating them, it fails but still shows as if needing to be updated. That's annoying.

yea no kidding. if you have titanium backup you can detach those apps from the market so they wont show updating. those are apps from the amazon app store i think, love the +1 feature

What is a +1 feature? Can't figure it out..
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Moved to apps..........
+1 is a new google plus feature. if you go into the market and look at an app it will have the option to +1 it which is equivalent to liking a status on facebook. you can +1 websites and links. and all the links you've +1's can be viewed on your google plus
Market updates
Any ideas as to why the android market is not retrievable from the android market...other than the recursive need for the market in the first place
Loving the pin security, thanks for this.
I have no idea how to install this

Hello, just wanted to share that I had a friend send me a gear2 app (.wgt) file that was not in the Samsung app store available for the gear1. I installed the app on my gear one via PC CMD - non rooted and the gear2 app works perfectly on my gear1, I have done this with 2 apps already! I don't understand why Samsung limits gear1 apps that will work just fine.. Is there a website where I can download more gear 2 apps (.wgt)? I searched online and found a few direct downloads to side load. Just looking for more... Thanks!

I know why, it's a marketing strategy to make more money, to get us to buy the newer one. Smh.

How did you do it? I Have the gear 1 running Tizen apps, there are not many apps, please share how you got more apps, [email protected]. thanks
I installed [ROM][I9505][XXUGNG4] Samy Deluxe S5 Style Operation Ivy and all of a sudden got a ton of apps for the Galaxy Gear Tizen in the store.
Don't know what has changed, but there's loads of apps. So something in the phone tells the store what apps to show... Anyone have a real S5 with a Gear and loads of apps?
Btw, if you install that rom on an S4 you need to fiddle a bit to get S Health to sync. Not sure what I did, but it worked. Installed Fitness with Gear, removed goprovider.apk and updated Gear Manager again with Galaxy Apps and it worked... Anyway
What probably changed is your build prop. A common way of getting more apps is spoofing the model number of an s5.
So long as your rooted you won't need to flash anything.

Tizen Apps - Phone Models thread gives some details, instructions for altering build prop can be readily found using Google.

I had the build prop changed before aswell, but I have more apps now then they show in their screenshots with this rom.
The screen shots in that thread are quite old now, lots more apps have been added since and they come in too fast to keep the screen shots updated.

Anyone kind enough to let me know what new apps are available on the fitness section? I had to downgrade to Android in order to use Runtastic on my gear 1 + Note 3 combo. Might consider rooting if it's now available on gear 1 Tizen..
thanks!
In the play store app when I try to sort the reviews of an app by newest first or highest rating first, the reviews sorting don't change at all.
Is this something everyone else is experiencing?

I am also getting the exactly same problem with my Samsung Galaxy S4 and all my old Android phones. I noticed it several weeks ago and still isn't fixed even after my phone updated Play Store to the new version. Does anyone know any fix for this?

I knew I wasn't the only one having this issue.
Google support didn't help either, they said to clear the cache and data from the play store and download manager and that didn't work.
Only the newly loaded comments sort out.

Just an FYI as its sooooo much better than Samsung Notes....

I dl'd it and disabled samsung notes. Much more robust program.
The only issue is that I had to re-activate samsung notes to take advantage of "screen of memo". It wont work without samsung notes active
What advantages does S-Note have over Samsung Notes?

Good old days, for start you could customize note covers, categories showed like folders (filing trays), you could customize background grid to other versions, like cross layout for maths and etc....
I don't understand why they removed these options.
Which was the one that you could copy and paste live links was it action memo?

Interesting. Thanks!
It's a ashame that they eliminated "photo notes" in the app. I thought it was a pretty handy feature. I tried to sideload it a couple days ago, but it wouldn't allow me.
Is the S note app available for the Note9 in the Galaxy App store or Google App Store? Without .apk etc.

Thank a lot. S note is much better than samsung note.
...and: it syncs to evernote.
Be warned it hogs a sensor usage for some unknown reason.View attachment 4727251

Not to mention that you could sync s note with evernote...there don't appear to be ANY sync capabilities with any 3rd party apps in samsung notes.
