Hello, if you haven't heard, Amazon finally came out with a tablet version of their store app. Unfortunately, nexus 7 is the only compatible device right now.
Could someone throw up the apk on drop box so others, such as those of us with the nexus 10, could download?

I'm almost positive this is not the tablet version. Can someone upload that? It would make my day.

Come on guys, usually you are awesome at hooking people up. It would take less than one minute to do a backup, upload, and post the link.

Rather than browbeating everyone here, why don't you spend two seconds on Google and find a link.
Like this story... TOP RESULT ON SEARCH... link is at the bottom of the article.

Trust me, I have searched for almost an hour. Everyone, including android police where I originally found out about this app, just links to the play store, where it says not compatible. Also, I don't want to download from some sketchy website that will likely include some malware along with my desired apk.
I'm sorry if it came across as rude, it wasn't my intention. I was just surprised that no one had posted it yet.

Thank you, but unfortunately this is the Amazon app store, not the amazon mobile store tablet version. Thanks again for reaching out though!

You're right...
I've been looking and it isn't around anywhere.
I can't even download it from Play or Amazon because it seems to be released only to US residents.
Here's the tablet version pulled from my Nexus 7

That blows.....
I just bought my wife a P&S camera on a great sale through the app.. Very easy and efficient.
Old app still installed and working well so its not tantrum worthy just yet here. They make it so easy to spend huh...

Seems the old app is working fine now, the login problem has been fixed but would still like the tablet versions the us have.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Yeah, any news on the UK version?
Thank you so much for that link, It works great. Amazon needs to clean the sand out and let us download this app from the play store.

Hi,
Not sure where to post this but here goes.........
Has anyone else noticed a faint Buzz/static at the very end a song or possibly during the quiet moments? I have noticed it when watching netflix as well.
Most people wouldn't notice but if you really listen it's there. I did a google search and it sounds like this May be a wide spread issue with different devices. I have the Canadian version of note 3 (smn900w8) I am finding this so friggin frustrating as I took back the lg g2 for this and don't want to regret swapping it. I did have a note 2 but I didn't notice if it was thee or not.
I'm also trying to find out what dac the North American version is using? Has there been any news?
You are correct and it is on many devices. I suspect this is something to do with the audio driver of the phone because on different ROMs it didn't do that

I think you right. I get the feeling that something needs to be bypassed like they do with certain kernels. I have tried using different players but no luck.
Anyone else able to confirm? Anyone figure out what dac is actually in this thing? Wolfson?
No problem with mine I just tried Netflix,music and everything else. However, the audio is crazy loud on the n3 compared to the n2 .

I'm angry I did t keep root granted. But it feels like I'm just out of luck now...
Is there no hope for a 1330 root

I feel your pain.
To be honest, I think the folks in other countries are in a slightly worse boat. At least US users of non-rooted Chromecasts still have all the stock apps including HBO Go and Pandora. Seems like the folks in Canada are having trouble even with those.
If we're lucky there will be a nice Christmas (or pre-Christmas) present from Google...

I'd say that's definitely gonna be the case, especially since Google is conducting their Google Cast SDK "Hackathon" on Dec. 7-8th. I'd say the SDK will be released either at that time or less than a week after. My bet is that it will be officially released immediately following that event though.
Just bought one today and was really disappointed to find out it's not rootable because it's the new firmware. Hoping there's a fix soon..

Yeah. I got one today. Tried to root. No dice. Gave up and just plugged it in the TV. And then the update came. Oh well. Maybe someday.

It was a 3A number. I know what the other post said about those, but I'm stubborn ( lol ) and tried it anyway.

Yeah since I'm outside the US and have an unrootable Chromecast I had to buy a new wireless router just so I could use DD-WRT to get around the Chromecast's built-in Google DNS and access the US Netflix library. But on the bright side it's a damn good router even without the Chromecast :laugh:
Same prob here, I was in a rush to try it out, I forgot to check xda first. The device is currently just lying in the drawer as I hardly use it since I live in Singapore so I got no netflix, just YT lol
Is it possible to play videos on websites based on flash in cc? Or is it possible with root? What i really want to know is do flash videos play? Thanks a bunch.

Yes, if done via the Cast extension for Chrome, but this does on-the-fly transcoding (decode/re-encode) on your computer so it needs some CPU horsepower.
Chromecast cannot natively play Flash, rooted or not.

Yeah mine was a 3a as well, I didn't even try to root it after reading this. Plus my otg is unpowered. Figured I can look for a older one and just buy another since they are cheap and try again or just hope with the release of sdk....

My CC is un-rooted and I just casted a two hour long YouTube video to keep my little sisters entertained. If you still have the issue in the morning, I'll cast some more to see if you're the only one.

Have you tried factory resetting your Chromecast? (may or may not help, but won't cause any damage)

Has anyone else noticed that the XDA app sometimes loads a thread immediately and then other times it gets "stuck" where it can take a very long time to load? When it gets stuck, I can click back and then click the same thread again, which sometimes will load it quickly. I notice the exact same behavior in the Amazon app when clicking a product. It happens on both WiFi and LTE and has happened with every version of android so far on the N6.
I use XDA and Amazon all the time so this is a particularly frustrating issue for me.
UPDATE: here is a video demonstrating the problem with the Amazon app:
Amazon App getting stuck on Nexus 6: https://youtu.be/bjDayQJVV3g
Which XDA app? Theres like a million of them. One of the tapatalk versions?
I'm using the XDA premium app.
I'm not convinced that it's an issue specific to the app though because I didn't notice this on my Nexus 4 and the exact same issue happens in the Amazon app.

XDA premium is based on Tapatalk and Tapatalk has problems on this forum. Its specific to this forum too, because taptalk works fine on other forums I use. I think the API on XDA for Tapatalk is outdated and since XDA are working on their own new XDA app (XDA One), they're probably not going to be too bothered to fix it.
Not sure about Amazon
Tapatalk has gone into the toilet over the years at this point I would honestly pay to go back to an old version. The iOS version is such a monstrosity and just so horrible its at the point of being unusable. if the thread I want actually comes up and displays I feel like I've won something.
Sent from my Google N6 on VZ
Thanks for the replies. Seems like this might be something a new XDA app could fix.
Here is a quick video I made showing the Amazon issue:
Amazon App getting stuck on Nexus 6: https://youtu.be/bjDayQJVV3g
The first 2 products open fast and then the third gets stuck. I click back and re try 5 times and on the last try, it opens fast like the first 2 did. Anyone else have this issue with Amazon?
Yes you are correct ..Those are the worse two apps to get "stuck".. Only other app is WWE SUPERCARD..Every other app is fine..I do believe it is app issues not phone related.
