[Q] Unable to install Amazon app - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all. I am unlocked, rooted, and unencrypted. I updated to SuperSU 2.35 earlier this week, and all of my apps were able to download and install as usual except for Amazon. It says it isn't compatible with my device when I try to download it from the Play Store. Does anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing this? I was able to install it prior to upgrading to SuperSU 2.35, and that is the only thing that has changed on my device so I think the problem was when I upgraded. Any help is greatly appreciated.
EDIT: Forgot to add, I have already tried wiping/resetting the device.

Try sideloading the app (look for the apk somewhere other than the play store).

I actually did that, and it worked, but I was still hoping there was a way to download it from the app store.

Did youbmess with DPI? That can sometimes cause problems.

It downloads fine on my phone. Is there anything that you changed such as in the build prop?

That was the issue. I don't know why I didn't think of that.

Try clearing your play store data.

I was able to get compatibility back after clearing market data and re flashing gapps. I also found out anything but 160 causes that same problem, but 160 works fine.
Try a reboot? Wipe cache, force close the app, and delete app data for the play store. It's really fickle truthfully. I ended up having to flash mine back to stock and use titanium backup to fix everything. If you have a nandroid backup pre-DPI change that should work as well.
Edit: nevermind! Glad you figured it out!

I just had this problem, but I figured out how to fix it...
1. Go to Settings>Apps>Google Play Store and "uninstall updates" and it will say something about installing the original system app...
2. Open the original play store and accept the terms and conditions. (Apps still not working at this point)
3. Download the latest update from somewhere.
4. Install and done...
Your play store should work properly now...

Install apks not from nook store or play store

So I'm still on stock HD and I've already rooted and installed gaps etc. But there are a couple of apks I would like to install that can't be obtained by the play store. I can download them but everytime I try to install them I am told the install is blocked because the apk wasn't obtained from the nook store. Anybody get around this yet?

You are trying to install with the Nook apps, like the browser and my files. Those are still blocked. You must install using a third party file manager like the one I put on the Universal Root. Or download one from Play Store.

I tried using the file manager included in your extras zip as well as astro but everytime I select an apk file it pops up saying it's blocked.

You may need to flash my unknown sources zip. That was in the gapps zip, but maybe you flashed it too early in the process. You need to have registered for that mod to work. Anyway do it again.

Share the apk from any of the mentioned phones using es file explorer. Send it via Bluetooth and install it. Check if it works. Although it will not get updates but you will have the play store version.
use titanium backup to backup the game in one of your phones where the game is working and restore the game on your phone via titanium backup again

There are a lot of apps not compatible and unavailable through the playstore app.
If you mode the build.prop for n7100 it will allow you to download the app from the play store change ro.product.model=GT-N7000 to GT-N7100 and the same for ro.product.device after that save and exit then reboot the you will be able to download. I have tried and confirmed

Lol.
Its a kernel issue..infact it isnt an issue..its something that is stated by philz as a known matter and that is how stock kernel also behaves.
Only speedmod kernel doesnt have a similar problem.

these could be device as well as regional restrictions.. I cant find Google keyboard if I search directly on the PlayStore.

Manual download firmware ?

Hi,
I'm looking to download the newest firmware for my 301BL, as I am using it for Windows Phone so I can manually update the firmware.
I sideloaded this app to get it working...
http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/s...ications/fc6a5eec-593c-47b9-8772-067e550b8d7f
There is a few apps in the WIndows Store that can install the firmware but, my watch is on 1.14.4 firmware and I know they are up to 2.9. My serial number starts with a Q and the hardware is V3R3 if that helps.
I tried to install some faces as they need SDK 2.0 or higher, they wont install.
Any idea where I can get these ?
Thanks !
Here is 2.9 if anyone needs it...
You can try http://pebblebits.com/ as well if you want...
