[Q] weatherbug elite? - 7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone got weather bug elite to run after rooting? I have tried everything I know to do but won't complete install.I have changed permissions,tried side load also with no luck

I would try various versions and see. If not, then might just have to wait and hope the developer supports it.
Edit: Its on the Amazon app store, is that the one you tried?

Elite but not on my fire hd
I have tried both methods with same result, with Amazon it downloads then disappears when trying to install, sideloading does not do the trick either. Strange acts like some type of setting is not allowing app to install. Most other apps i have tried works just fine this one is a challenge, and of course its one that I really like and have paid for on both sites .
Sorry admins for posting in wrong area!!! :

Couldn't get WB working either
I finally gave up on weatherbug and went with the Weather Channel app. It's free and has a pretty good widget.

Trouble installing apps w/gingerbread

This might just be the hardware, but I've been trying all day to install dolphin or skyfire but so far I can't seem to get it. I can see all the add-ons to dolphin but not the actual browser.
On another note, is there a way to get the default mail app on this?
I can't honestly say its not your gingerbread but ont he g2 on ginger bread it works really nice

As far as I know posting the .apk for a free app is ok. If not, please tell me and I'll edit this post.
Here's the Dolphin HD apk for you to sideload.
The apk worked fine. Thanks. I noticed something though...when i go to the android market website and I see my device, I see this:
"this item is not compatible with your device"
How do I fix this?

New CNN App, others, not showing

I am getting tired of some of the quality apps not showing up in my Nook Market. I am using CM7.
eBay, Gowalla, Amazon, now CNN (and a few others) do not show up. I have to Bluetooth them over from my phone to get them installed (and even then it's a pain when they have an update).
Anyhow, will this ever be fixed? Can the dev's somehow fool the market into beleiving that the Nook meets all of the requirements so that all of the basic missing apps show up?
Just curious if there is ANY hope in the future on this....
I believe i see the problem. I went onto the web market, and looked at the permissions, and i think it all comes down to them requiring this:
"# Hardware controls:
take pictures and videos"
Somehow, you would have to make the nook tell the market that it can take pictures/video, which should then make it compatible. I don't know how easy this is though, so i will leave it to a dev..

There are 5 or 6 apps I use on my Droid (1) that I cannot locate in the market on my NC because of this camera permission. VERY FRUSTRATING! I'm sure the devs will create a workaround for this eventually (i hope!)...
I'll fix it. Thanks for pointing it out.
Please. I would really appreciate it very much.

Well, yeah it'd be nice if they could just disable the camera feature. Apps crash if you force 'em and they try to use the camera, so caveat emptor
I ported the .apk of the new CNN app from my Epic thru Dropbox, it won't install on the Nook....

I didnt try the CNN one yet (I tried it on my phone and it was ok, but nothing like the HC on the Xoom version) but I got Amazon on my nook with Cm7 without any problem, then loaded all my apps that I had from my phone.
I loaded it by going to Amazon.com and loggin in, then it loaded to my device pretty easy (maybe one more step, but easy).
Battery on Nightly 40 was not good, i left it at 64% last night and when got home from work it was 8%. Waiting for the recharge now and then will load #41 and see if anything is better. Sorry for the long Ramble on the amazon question.

CNN works fine on my Nook. Had to grab the apk from my Fascinate.

The eBay, Amazon, CNN, and Gowalla app all download and work on a stock rooted nook with the newer market update. The eBay, Amazon, and Gowalla apps are all on the amazon market, have to tryed to download from there? I am without my personal computer for a few more weeks or else I would look into the problem for you, it should be a simple code change to get it to work on CM7.
Here's the apk for CNN that works on the NC.

Dalingrin said he could fix this, does that mean I should be looking for a it in a recent CM7 Nightly?

New netflix apk

If your Netflix app wont update heres the APK go to XDA home page and select Android Hacking then choose the one about games and stuff and there it will be . Sorry cant post link maybe someone on a computer could help.
If i helped you please thank me
I just upgraded to gingered 0.07 and tried installing netflix, only to find out that I need to update it before it will let me log in.
Please, if someone has the new apk, can you post it here so we can continue to use Netflix on our phones?
here's the link:

Forgot where I saw it first but I just edited build.prop to make the market think my phone was a nexus one and downloaded it directly. Worked every time.

Won't let me access the link!
I'd really appreciate a chance to try this out. Is it because I have less than 10 posts? It does say that that's just to post on the dev forum. I just want to download it.
dunno if it was a fluke for me, but i just Odin'd EG22 (Source: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1184134) and searched Netflix in the stock marketplace app. Found that it wasn't blocked from the epic anymore. Figured i'd give that a try before running the modified versions. Found the app, and installed without a problem. Loads MUCH faster too. Came from EF02.
EDIT/ maybe my marketplace has been tweaked already?... didn't read anything about that and says its stock... anyways give it a shot

Yeah they officially released it a week or so ago. That is how EC05 users can use it now.

As ultimate said just download from the market.

yeah, the app is downloadable from the market and it does work on my Epic running SRF 1.2 atop Genocide 1.1. the overall responsiveness is a bit sluggish, and only being able to access my instant queue is really annoying - you'd think an official Netflix app could have an actual means of managing you DVD queued - but streaming video absolutely works.
thanks, tried it out and works like a charm.
For some reason Netflix still has the poor quality buttons at the top of the app. I'm not sure if its suppose to be like that, but has anyone experienced that?
its not a big deal, just curious.

The app buttons stink. But even the website buttons look screwy sometimes on Chrome. I think it's just Netflix not keeping their tech up to snuff. Maybe that's why they are changing the rates on their plans.

Mango manga reader

I used to have this app, but now when I go to the market, the app is there, but the download link isn't. I noticed this with a few other Apps to... Anyone know why this happens? with the other app, I found the latest apk file and installed from there and this fixed the market link.
If it helps, i'm on pinnacle 1.2.
In the meantime, Anyone have the apk for the new mango?

Not really sure if this will help you or not but I searched for it and it popped right up I'm on fasty II and I'm running the new market I know some time depending on what market your running at&t filters out filters out some stuff not sure if it helped but there some info. Hope you get it figured out.

Thanks for checking your market. I'm wondering if it may be because i'm in Canada and maybe there are some restrictions because of that.
Just to clarify my first post, I do find these apps in the market, but most of them do not have download buttons. If I find the corresponding apk and install from there though, then next time I look in the market, the update /uninstall buttons are there.
Once again, thanks for your help. I'll try another rom and see if it's different
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
I found the problem! I had changed my screen dpi, which seems to have caused some of the download buttons to disappear on the market. Just restated with native resolution and that solved the problem.
I hope that this can help people on the future.
And thanks to the dude that checked their market fir me. I'll thank you when I get to a computer

[Q] KFHD App.

Hello. I was wondering if one of you could put your huge brains to work on making an apk run on KFHD7. The app is for a local news station in Portland, Oregon.
GooglePlay link:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sMSwyLDEsImNvbS5rcHR2LmFuZHJvaWQud2VhdGhlciJd
It just doesn't work on the KFHD7 yet. Or at least I'm not able to download it from the market. I've tried to find it online, but the links all take me to the market or the 1 or 2 apk's I find don't run. I hope that this app just needs a few tweaks. But I am part noob, so what do I know.
There's no way that I would expect someone to do this. If it's a pain in the rear, then I would forget about it. If the process can be explained easily, then maybe someone could tell me how to do it. If not then, oh well.
Many thanks for even taking the time to read this.
If you have it installed on another android device, go to your Data/app folder and get the .apk yourself.

I tried that too. It didn't work. That's why I figured it would need some tweaks to get it to work on Kindle. It's pretty cool app for what it is.
