Where are you looking? Device Manager?

It shows up there. But I also use to be able to go into my computer folder and see my kindle in there and just drag and drop files.

So, those of you in the NYC area who use Optimum/Cablevision as their ISP may have received an email to download the Optimum App for Kindle Fire which allows you to stream live TV onto your Kindle if you're connected to your home WiFi. They've had apps like this on iOS for a while and they FINALLY released an app for the Kindle Fire.
I managed to download the apk off my sister's Kindle Fire, and it installs fine on the Xoom (ICS stock, rooted). Of course, it asks for root access which you MUST deny, otherwise it won't let you stream. But then as soon as you authenticate into the app, you get a notice that says "Device not supported."
I imagine there must be a way to spoof the app into thinking it's on a kindle fire. Any ideas? I'm happy to share the apk: http://goo.gl/SfLKz
Thanks!

I hope so. I have a nexus 7 and it will be awesome to have this app.
I wouldn't mind trying but wouldn't even know what the correct settings would be nor where to implement them. If you have any suggestions or insights, I'm happy to give it a shot...

Which version & how?
I tried the latest 1.02 but got a XAPK file validation error upon running it even after copying in the data file it downloads.
Thanks

I can get it to load just fine.. but once i get into the game the graphics are all screwy. I can see lights and other things through walls. If i looks the wrong way water clips through roads etc. I dont know what the hell is wrong. If anyone has any pointers.. please let me know.
GTA3 works just fine along with all other games I have tried. This is quite a strange issue.
Game crashes on my 7" Fire HD as soon as you're able to move around. The screen goes blank and the device requires a reboot.

Same thing happens to me, just turn down the draw distance to around 20% and it'll work. Won't look as good as it should but at least you won't have the horrible clipping issues
rom?

What apk are you using? I cant find a single one that's legitimate.
So i have a kindle fire hd 7 and i am trying to use the screencast app. (I do have a rooted kindle fire hd) so whenever i record it seems to work fine,
But whenever i go to watch it it has a black screen with my audio (it never shows my screen). Well i went around looking for a way to fix the problem and androidcowboy helped me out and said that i need to disable Hardware overlays. Someone please tell me how to do that from the
Kindle fire hd 7! Thank you.
I Got The Same Problem!
Ya, I Got the Same Problem. Anyone Got Any Fixes? If Then That Would Be Great

Having root does not give the developers option, it just gives you root. The developers option, for KFHD users, is attainable only through a custom rom. Whether a particular rom is screencast compatible is hit or miss.

Any chance someone could pull the APK of the Amazon App store version of Wired Magazine from a Kindle Fire HD 7"? Regular Android tablets don't get the nice, tablet-optimized version of the magazine. Instead, we basically get a PDF. The only other copies of the APK floating out there are from the original Kindle Fire, where the magazine content is stuck in a 1024x600 box in the middle of the screen.
Not looking for any magazine content, as I'm a subscriber Just looking for the APK itself. Thanks!

Asking one more time. Any chance someone could pull the APK?
Thanks!
If you're rooted, you could try Market Helper from codekiem, to spoof the kindle device id?

Yeah, I have that one and I believe it's from the original Kindle Fire. The date on that post is in 2011 and the HD was released in 2012.
I'm not 100% sure the APK from the KF HD would even work, but I know the one from the original KF doesn't work correctly. I appreciate the reply.

Really good idea, but people on this thread indicate that it doesn't fool the Amazon App Store.

Could be a lot of things. I'd need more info. I've had the same problem myself before and here's what I did.
Are your device drivers installed and running properly?
Is the device in USB mode? Some ROMs will give a pop up that asks what you want to do when plugged into a computer. Did you hit "charge only"?
Try refreshing the window in which your kindle would be displayed. Usually "computer" or "my computer"
Is it's battery dead? Your comp won't see it if it's not turned on and some USB ports don't have enough power to charge a kfhd. Try a USB 2 or 3 port.
All in all I'd try rebooting both devices and hook them together again.
And if it's an emergency situation you can always use something like dropbox or 4shared to transfer the files over the internet.
Good luck.
If you went from stock to normal cm, try uninstalling the drivers in the device manager and letting windows reinstall what it thinks is right. I had something like this happen in the same scenario for the kindle MTP/portable device. Then again u didn't mention whether it was stock or not so I have no idea if this is even relevant, it was just the first thing to come to mind.

i m in the first kinology rom, it ever worked. now no, my brother`s kindle work well. it recognise my kindle like M: but i cant enter to it, it is like transparent (in my pc, using windows 7)
OK then try what I mentioned because that is weird, sounds like it might be driver related.
