Hi guys I got what I thought was the correct .apk from the net. Emailed it to myself the opened it in my Kindle. It installs but says hardware not supported need at least 7" screen to use, or words to that effect??
Im new to this, am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance :good:

My wife really wants a program that will read her books to her on her long commute.
She said the Kindle does this (I haven't really looked). So does the nook color have something like this? I am running HC v4 right now. But I will re-install whatever to try and get this and dual boot. So let me know if there is something I can get! Thanks guys!

The only apps I know of that can do this are these two:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.andrego.SpeakTextEasy&feature=search_result
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.flyersoft.moonreaderp&feature=search_result
I'm pretty sure there isn't a free app that does this.
Hi All,
Seems like optimum (cablevision) has a app for kindle fire, that can stream cable tv, similar to the app they have for the iphone. It is available for the kindle fire on Amazon. Can someone get the apk, see if the app can be ported to android in general ?

Ok .. found the link https://www.dropbox.com/s/c7ld876le6j5pqy/com.optimum.rdvr.mobile-1.apk
thanks to the kind soul on the Kindle fire forum
App installs fine, and then once I login I get an unsupported device message
can someone please look at this and suggest a fix ? I think getting the right build fingerprint spoof would resolve the issues ??

Works great on my HTC EVO View
This APK works fine on my HTC EVO View 7" tablet.
Correction:
Now I am getting the dialog pop-up saying: "This Application is not supported in this device"
Very strange, since it did work at first and I was watching Two and a half Men.
I also installed it on a Samsung Tab 7 with the same result.
I also did see that the app was asking for superuser permissions.
Hard to believe that it needs a rooted device.
Hopefully someone can shed some light on this.
Addition:
I cleared the data and logged in again, accepting the Terms & Conditions etc.
Then I am good to go again. Wonder for how long?
(This is on the HTC).

There is another discussion going on here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1785945
seems like the app rejects the device if certain build.prop parameters do not match that of the kindle fire

Just root your Kindle & install Play Store. That will give you access to more apps than you could possibly need.

Hello BRICS brother, I live in Brazil and bought a Kindle Fire HD last week.
Some functions simply do not work like the Amazon AppStore (requires an US credit card) but the rest works great. Reading books and comics on the new display is awesome.
After rooting and installing the Play Store the device becomes even more amazing, now I like it better than my Ipad.
Buy the new Kindle and be happy my friend!
Hello . Will rooting the KFHD will allow us to buy ebooks at later point of time thru amazon services. i may be interested as a android tablet which will allow freedom to user on downloading apps and games and also to read ebooks. will rooting would help . if so i can think of buying one. please let me know.
I've got my 8.9 KFHD rooted and installed the Google Play store.
Is there a build.prop edit that will open up the tablet to some of the incompatible apps that won't break stuff like the amazon store, or the kindle reader app?

The only workaround I've found so far is to download them on another device, copy the .apk from /data/app or /system/app and side load it. Dropbox becomes real handy for this sort of thing. Of course, not everyone has the luxury of having a second device . . .
Thanks That's what I've been doing. Thanks to a rooted Nexus 7 and a Galaxy S 3

Yes it works.
I am running this on a Motorola Xoom (Not rooted)
You do have to have the Amazon Appstore installed (i installed it prior to installing the RR app)
With the Amazon Appstore installed, I was even able to purchace a 6month subscription. The free version is limited to something like 5 books.
My 5 year old uses it about twice a week.
