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

It doesn't work on my Kindle Fire HD 7". Could you share your what firmware version you are on. Not sure why its not working I am on 7.2.1

Works on my nexus 7 gone try it onmy hd

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.

Will root break Amazon Instant Video on my Kindle Fire HD?

On the original Kindle Fire I know that root did break this feature, but I'm wondering if that is still the case with the Kindle Fire HD (8.9" if it matters).
The only reason I want to root is to use the Google Play Store for obvious reasons, and to add a lot of the Google apps such as Google Music and Gmail.
If someone could point me in the right direction to a root method that keeps the Amazon installed OS and Amazon Instant Video as well as me being able to load the Play Store I would really really appreciate it.

I rooted my device and amazon prime streaming still worked fine

I've rooted my 8.9 and installed some of the Google as that I wanted and required being in the system/app folder. I've not lost video but I have lost my books. Once I unroot and factory reset the books return. That's the only issue I've had.

I have rooted multiple hd 8.9's and have never lost access to books or any other amazon feature on the hd.

Which root method did you use?

It will seem as though everything fails but works in the end. Make sure you pay attention to prompts. There is one point where you need to enter a couple commands on the device.
Good Luck
Root my 8.9 numerous times now, like post before said never lost video or books. The only problem is with a custom launcher you cant open the kindle reader, You have to use the home app button and open reader from stock launcher. If for some reason you do lose books just deregister then register again.

[Q] How Do You Get ScreenCast App To Work On Kindle Fire HD 7

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.

[Q] Which ROMs support the new Amazon Music app?

I have IOAP Update 02/12/2014 on my 7" Fire HD and the new Amazon Music app stops working as soon as it tries to load. Ditto for any of the Kindle Reader app updates since February. Before I switch to another ROM (I really want to use the Music app) I wanted to see if others have it working on different ROMs. Thanks!

Prime Music App

Has anyone received the update yet for the new Prime Music? I've been waiting to try it out but it is not getting pushed to either of my Kindle fire HD.
If anyone has it could they pull the apk?

In the exact same position as you. Thought I'd be clever and just pull it from Amazon's update, but they didn't include the updated APK for whatever reason.

I have 2 kindles that are on wifi all day long and neither one has received it.

It's basically the same as Play Store. You don't want that one?

No, they're not the same.

Problem is solved! I downloaded the firmware from the amazon page, added the extension ".zip", opened it and took the amazonmp3_unsigned.apk from system/app folder and copied it to my kindle fire HD and replaced the apk on it.
Now all works like expected

Thank you but that doesn't help those of us who are trying to get the Prime streaming app which is different from the Mp3 app.

Did you even go to the link I posted? No you didn't or you would not still be looking. MP3 has been completely replaced by Prime Music. Amazon MP3 as a stand alone app has ceased to exist. It may say MP3 in the link but the apk is Amazon Prime streaming app.
Edit: The apk from 1mobile and the Play Store are both 4.0.3. Both are as current as it gets.

Did you even try the advice you gave? No you didn't or you would know the play store version force closes after the first time. The Amazon version is different from the play store version. We need the Amazon version to get it to work on a stock Kindle.

Yes I have. The Amazon apk is not Kindle exclusive. It's the same as the Play Store only the Play Store apk is one update up on Amazon app store. The app has had some issues for some with most recent update for some.

You also could have just hit the uninstall updates option on the app page in the Play Store.

Omg, the APK for the Kindle Fire IS different from the generic Android APK. The have the same identifier name but they are different. Different file sizes, different UI. Different.The Amazon Kindle reader app used to have the same problem, if you are running the Kindle's own OS (or Kinology) and you updated the app through the play store it would break functionality, because they're different APKs. This is well documented.
