This is the Step By Step Method

This guide will tell you how to install the apps from amazon.com from your Android phone if you live outside the US. Now you can enjoy the Free App Of The Day from Amazon.com

Step 0: First go to www.amazon.com and click Sign In.

Step 1: Create a new Amazon account by selecting “No, I am a new customer”, and complete the registration wizard.

Step 2: Put US Address and Phone Number. You can put any random phone number as long as it ha proper code.

Alternatively, you can generate random US address and phone number, etc. with www.fakenamegenerator.com

Step 3: Assign US address as account’s 1-click default address.

Step 4: Next, go to “Add a Credit or Debit Card” section. Paypal provides developers with sets of test credit card account numbers which can also be used in Amazon account. You can also use these test credit card numbers to register in Amazon Appstore. This can be found here

Step 5: Your Amazon account is now configured to get any free apps from Amazon AppStore

Step 6: Now you can download and install Amazon AppStore for Android. Run Amazon AppStore App and login with this new username/password. Now you can download all free apps from Amazon.

NOTE1: You will still not be able to purchase any paid apps (apps which are not free) with these test credit cards.

NOTE2: It is highly recommended to make a new user rather than using US address in preexisting usernames.

Does not work anymore, as it seems Amazon started checking ip addresses a few days ago.
[Android Apps and Games] Telanis:
Still working here in Canada, but you can always use Orbot to hide your IP.
[Android Apps and Games] nikhilshivpuja:
not working in india

The latest update , (with the appstore allowing subscriptions ), does not work in India (from yesterday), am going to try orbot , and maybe create a new account
[Android Apps and Games] SelimCangir:
it's works very well on me, i am in istanbul now which is on east europe.

And i didnt do anything special. Just using an address "Ocean City, MD" and my old AT&T debit card which has only 1,45$ :)
[Android Apps and Games] alanllew:
Orbot

Orbot works, no need to create new account. Install, set it to work with Amazon App Store, restart phone... you're good to go.
[Android Apps and Games] override182:
Tested but no luck.. did u use a proxy inside of orbot? The default configuration failed me.. and i have rebooted like u said too
[Android Apps and Games] Joel Chan:
You can use droidvpn. It's good also, remember to wipe cookies
[Android Apps and Games] Roscopcoletrain:
worked for me! Thanks! :)
[Android Apps and Games] K Dotty:
1. Register for an e-mail address or use a throw-away account. DO NOT USE your current email address tied to Amazon because entering fake information is grounds to have your account suspended.

2. Register for a new account on Amazon using the disposable email address. Again, DO NOT use your regular Amazon account or email address.

3. Enter information as if you were based in the U.S. Go to www.fakenamegenerator.com for help in this regard. Enter the name, address, phone number, and credit card number (Amex, Mastercard, Visa ).

4. Download the Amazon App Store APK to your phone. Follow this tutorial for help in getting it on your phone.

5. Browse the Amazon App Store from your phone! You will not be able to access paid apps, but you can at least get the free apps that are exclusive to Amazon.

I'm in the uk and this method works fine, you don't need to be rooted or anything and it doesnt require any additional apps :)

Enjoy!

I'm using a DHD with ice cream 4.0

I've tried orbit, but it still doesn't work...

Can someone help me?

Edit:The new IP it gives me is not a us one...How can I force the app to give me a us ip?

Edit 2:I finally get a us ip and I reach to download fruit ninja...

But I still would like to know if there is a way to get a us ip permanently. Thank in advance
[Android Apps and Games] snakeeyes21:
easiest way is just to get the freebies via a computer using software like

hide my ip or similar.

appstore link

http://www.amazon.com/mobile-apps/b?ie=UTF8&node=2350149011

just get them, then you don't have to faff about changing things on

your phone, using orbot takes ages to download larger apps.
[Android Apps and Games] override182:
Yeah.. orbot seems to be very random.. i still have no luck on getting the US ip
[Android Apps and Games] override182:
I used proxydroid with this US proxy

Https://market.android.com/details?id=org.proxydroid

To force Orbot to provide a US IP address then:

Settings | Exit Nodes

And set the text to:

{US}

And you will always get a US IP... :)

[HD2 General] Safarend:
Hi every one. :p

I've got a problem.

my hd2 T9193 works once a week for 1-5 houres maxmimum. (otherwise, it reboot it self for ever)

i can go to the bootloder

i can change the hspl

i can install just one rom called JNF_AndroidStarter_US_30-12-10 which work once a week as i siad.(when i connect to the pc it says HD2 T8585)

I cannot update the rom or the radio. always stop at some point

I've tried hard reset

I've tried task 29, task 28, task 2a

I've tried hspl 1.44,1.66,2.08,3.03 (both the offical and the jilbreken)

I've tried sd recovery with offiacl rom(00018003 error {LEOIMG.nbh -- FAIL}{RADIO_V2--RSA Fail}{/*ON BOTTOM*/ Update Terminate UPDATE FAIL}

I've tried most of the roms offical or cooked one

I've bought a new battrey

What I was doing before it crashs ?

I've tried all andriod roms (sd,nand,recovery mode):D

I've tried wp7:D

I've tried all wm6.5:D

All of them where frezez when i run too many porgrams so i take the battrey out and insert it agin

so the last rom I've instaled correctley before the crash was the offical -HTC HD2-RUU_Leo_Telstra_WWE_1.72.841.0_Radio_CRC_Signed_15.32.50.07U_2.07.51.22_2_Ship , i think the radio is the same as the offical one in red

so What do you recommend ? :)
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
you have what is known as a 'stuck radio', and its a 51 radio so wont work with android/magldr/most cooked roms.

the current advice appears to be chill your phone in a sealed bag in teh fridge/freezer for a while, no sim, no sd, then when its nice and cool try flash telstra rom from sd card.

Ive never seen it done, but it seems to be the only advice anyone can give.

have a google on stuck radio radio rsa fail things like that.
[HD2 General] Safarend:
Awesome, i will try it ^_^

do i but the battry with it ?
[HD2 General] Safarend:
COOL

every thing is working know, i've changed the Radio to the lastest one 15.xxxxxx:D:D:D

there is one problem it frezes when i use more than half of the RAM. :o

thanks for helping mate:cool:
[HD2 General] kin869:
Can you elaborate on what you did exactly? Did you flash via USB or SD card? Did you end up putting your phone in the freezer? If so, for how long?

Thanks in advance and congrats on fixing your HD2!

[LG Optimus 2x] tarusdg:
I currently own a Nexus S and love it. I just wanted to get your opinions on The G2X and how it may compare to the NS. Aside from lacking gingerbread, what other potential downsides am i looking at? What are the upsides? I'm just looking for constructive feedback. No Flame throwing :D
[LG Optimus 2x] JupiterDroid:
Flames relented;)

The Nexus S beats it in every department except video recording, so its up to you what you deem important;)

Nexus S is fast, amazing screen and housing which make the phone when off look like a black slab of coal, also when the phone is on the blacks stay that colour, so you dont know where the screen starts and finishes...

The Nexus S is the real deal mate, i cant see anything living up to its quality, except for maybe the SGSII

JD
[LG Optimus 2x] babluc:
Im having the same problem. But im also wondering between my Nexus s, the new T-Mobile G2X and upcoming HTC Pyramid.

My opinion.

Nexus s - Love this phone, have nothing bad to say, never had all the issues everyone was having (rebooting).

T-Mobile G2X - Reviews say the phone is sluggish for a phone with dual core, but it might be due to the custom UI. The G2X comes with stock gingerbread which is a plus but how how easy will this be to developers to root and install custom rom. Have never had a LG phone and dont know how the quality is.

HTC Pyramid - Still needs to be released but the spec looks amazing and I love HTC quality (nexus one). Recently HTC had not been too nice to devs. with G2 and Thunderbolt.

Wait til all the phone get released and then see what happens, see what fits for me.
[LG Optimus 2x] dudeimgeorge:
nexus s is the real deal....unless yours is with tmobile....then in 2 years...its useless (unless you enjoy using a smartphone for 2g)

thats just a techinicality, most of us will move on by then, but the gx2 needs some more time before we can dive into it. but its dual core and 4g, cant really hate on that. ofcourse battery life can be a good fight (im on 22hrs and 30minutes on my nexus s right now and its still at 15%)

amoled screen is another thing...the fact that it doesnt have gingerbread is not abig deal at all, from what i read this is reaallly stock android with the exception of some apps, not skins or UI
[LG Optimus 2x] kenvan19:
The Pyramid is the one that I'm waiting to see more about.
[LG Optimus 2x] tarusdg:
Yeah i hope we are able to see some hands-on vids today. I agree that only time will tell if its a winner or not. Those specs do make it seem like a beast of a phone though, and stock android has a significant place in my heart.
[LG Optimus 2x] JupiterDroid:
I definitely would not buy anything less that a screen with AMOLED. I was a HTC fanatic, i owned the HTC Desire, Nexus One, Desire Z (G2) and the HD. But once you convert to Samsung you never look back, i could never have a SLCD screen again(greyish blacks yuk)...

But i do miss Sense sometimes, and i know that's a contentious issue in this forum as there are so many Sense haters here, but i like having the choice to mix up my ROM's by having stock for a few months then Sense for a few months.. With the Nexus S your pretty much restricted to stock or MIUI, But thank god for the MIUI release, its invigorated the dev forum. Lots of kernels and same-ish ROM's, thank god we have something new to play with;)

JD
[LG Optimus 2x] kenvan19:
I used to feel the same way when I had my Epic 4G. I thought I could put up with anything for a SAMOLED but then I started playing with an Evo. Sure, the screen as quite as brilliant but a great screen does not a device make. I've made my opinion on Sense clear but I won't dis on someone else's enjoyment of it (doesn't mean I don't get tired of seeing new threads pop up asking for it). The only thing that would really make me not want to get a Pyramid is if the bootloader is as locked down as the Thunderbolt but something tells me that was something Verizon wanted but that is a personal hunch supported by absolutely no evidence so don't quote me on it. I could easily give up the SAMOLED, hell it makes me feel more comfortable running bright themes and I think it helps devs want to make them.
[LG Optimus 2x] babluc:
Anyone concerned with the issues of these phones not being future proof. These phones not working once att get a hold of tmobile.
[LG Optimus 2x] kenvan19:
That's not 100% true. They will work fine, you just won't get 3G.
[LG Optimus 2x] babluc:
But dont you think thats a big issue.
[LG Optimus 2x] tarusdg:
This article explains that it might be future-proof. I hope its true
[LG Optimus 2x] cigar3tte:
That's most likely a year or more from now. By then you'd have replaced your phone anyways.
[LG Optimus 2x] kenvan19:
I wouldn't say its a big issue. I'm usually on wifi. Sure EDGE sucks but its better than nothing and it is still completely functional.
[LG Optimus 2x] dinan:
Hardware aside... doesn't anyone else find this phone to be massively ugly?

http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2011/03/lgg2xhandson.jpg

That dead space where the capacitive buttons are just looks way too 1990's to me...
[LG Optimus 2x] JupiterDroid:
Yeah, thats ugly, defo;)

JD
[LG Optimus 2x] SupaDupaFly24:
hands on:

[LG Optimus 2x] kenvan19:
It is waaaaay faster than the 2x was when they reviewed it.
[LG Optimus 2x] zephiK:
i dont find it ugly at all.. just the bottom of the phone is a little bit exaggerated and could of added more screen size rather than having blank spots; probably something internal of the phone hardware that prevented that or they didnt want to overextend the screen size
[LG Optimus 2x] dinan:
Well... it looks snappy, but it's quite obvious the video is sped up. I know for a fact people's fingers don't move like that, all jittery lol. And if it's really using stock android, that stock launcher should animate just like our stock launcher, and it's way too fast in the video (opening the app drawer etc).
[LG Optimus 2x] :
It looks pretty in the video, looks horrendous in that picture;) WOW the speed is enhanced by the T-Mobile ROM just as the G2 was enhanced. The Desire Z was slowed by Sense and the lightweight T-Mobile rom really shows off this beasts speed. I would definitely own this, its a lovely phone;)

When i had the Desire Z i ran the G2 ROM constantly, great ROM;)

JD
[LG Optimus 2x] zephiK:
http://androidandme.com/2011/03/car...ture-proofing-their-new-phones-to-run-on-att/

appears that t-mobile is making this phone to run on AT&T as well
[LG Optimus 2x] babluc:
So ATT is going to use Tmobile spectrum for LTE. At the rate that att is working to get 4G LTE, most of us are going to be on new phones or carriers. No worries, and LG G2x is going to work on both carriers. Just hope the HTC Pyramid will do the same.

On a side note, whey the hell has this not happened before, to add all the 3g and 4g spectrums on a phone. FFUUUUUU carriers.
[LG Optimus 2x] tarusdg:
I think the phone looks good. Seems to have a solid build from the looks of it. Seems to be fast (always good), has some enhanced speaker tech, descent screen, dlna, hdmi, dual core awesomeness.
[LG Optimus 2x] Vandam500:
Lol how can you say the NS beats it in every department? It has a dual core Tegra 2 processor for gods sake :p
[LG Optimus 2x] cigar3tte:
If you can't apply it to use, it's pointless. If the 1Ghz single core is running apps at the same level as the dual-core, that department doesn't matter. I wouldn't say "beats" though, hehe.
[LG Optimus 2x] :
I would,

Until the OS and apps fully use the dual core, the Nexus S will be number 1. And also there was another valid point from earlier, when we get Ice Cream, the other phones will probably still be waiting for there GB update, and may never get Ice Cream at all due to wanting more money from selling other phones.

This is why the NS rules;)

JD
[LG Optimus 2x] babluc:
Because of the supported bands G2x seems like a good option. Would be cool, is in a year if you could use ATT and Tmobile towers, before they turn of tmobile 3g.
[LG Optimus 2x] Master™:
http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/Phones/cell-phone-detail.aspx?cell-phone=T-Mobile-G2x-with-Google

hmm

I dont like the look of it
[LG Optimus 2x] ashirian:
I agree, I think the G2x is pretty ugly.

The G2x's supposed performances based on the specs aside, I just don't think I can stand LG's own UI. I absolutely can't stand Samsung UI either. My cousin has Vibrant and I just can't get used to it. Those ridiculous colors distracts me. I just love clean Android.

I was just at the T-mobile store today playing with Galaxy S 4G. I find the Samsung's UI to be quite annoying and I didn't like it at all. The lady there was trying to get me to buy GS4G but I just couldn't. I walked out a little later with bs excuse then, just walked over to Best Buy mobile and got myself a Nexus S.

I was thinking of waiting until G2x or Galaxy S II but honestly, I hate their UIs so much. I think their dual core and 4G will kill the battery so quick, let's see if it last half a day with normal use. And where I live, I don't get 4G services anyway.

But right now, I can't stop stare at the beautiful SAMOLED screen and the body is just snugly fitting into my palm compare to my old ginormous HD2. So happy right now.:D
[LG Optimus 2x] tarusdg:
The G2X will have vanilla android and the tegra 2 processor is supposed to be pretty good with battery life.
[LG Optimus 2x] zephiK:
That's what they said about the G2 and it wasn't completely "stock" Android.

I mean I think its pretty obvious that you want the G2x, if its something you want. Go for it. You always have that thirty-day period... right?

NS development will continue to happen, it's not going anywhere.
[LG Optimus 2x] CB620:
I'm waiting for the g2x
[LG Optimus 2x] :
Its not vanilla android,

It will be a ROM which is close in DNA to the G2 ROM. And the G2 ROM looks like vanilla but is far from that. It has lots of HTC implementations and is more like a bare bone sense ROM than vanilla. You will only find true vanilla natively on two phones, the N1 and the NS.

I'm probably going to end up switching to Verizon or Sprint soon with the latest news about T-Mobile being bought by the devil. I was excited about the LG phone coming and the HTC Pyramid but now I think I'll have to look elsewhere. I just don't think I can deal with ATT... the plan limits.. the nickel and diming...bloatware... the poor customer service... *sad face*
[LG Optimus 2x] winx14:
i previously switched from nexus one to G2 because i was reading about how much "better" it was. big mistake. went back to the nexus line.
[LG Optimus 2x] zephiK:
and the G1 ;) i call that the Nexus 0 or NZ (Nexus Zero).. yeahhh :D

but I still give T-Mobile the respect of being the only carrier attempting to promote stocklike ROMs.

Just wish they didn't spend money on HTC Espresso (T-Mo Sense). It wasn't that good.
[LG Optimus 2x] tarusdg:
i don't know if i want it or not, I'm just wanted to discuss options and possibilities. I am pretty happy with my NS as I was with my N1 before it.

I knew someone was gonna play the G1 card... lol... that doesn't count as its <2.1.

And because I said so, lol;P

My God I so agree,

MyTouch sense is ugly as all hell...

[LG Optimus 2x] zephiK:
Well the percentage of G1 users, they were pretty much forced to root due to the lack of space for apps. The majority of flaws from the G1 is what made me love the phone.

And since we rooted, we most likely used CM5/CM6. CM5 on G1 was pretty awesome :)

I just feel that they could of used the money that was invested into Espresso towards something that would matter like on their towers/marketing etc. Things that would improve their network.
[LG Optimus 2x] kenvan19:
I agree 100% but looking at it from their perspective you have to see that as one of the smaller carriers their hope of making their network better than or even just on par with the big two would require a huge amount of money. What they need to do that is a bigger customer base and what they need to do that is a phone experience that draws the customers. Do I think that Espresso was the right choice for that? Hell no. It is hideous, clunky and just stupid (Why do you need a freaking genius button?). But not agreeing with their decision doesn't mean I don't understand why they did it.

Its like saying that you want to sell your house and you've got $100 to improve its value. You could invest that into a nice little garden and maybe make the value go up a little or you could spend it on food for your open house. One makes your house look better immediately and one has a chance to bring more people to the table and thus more offers.

Okay, its a terrible analogy, I'll admit it but I think it sort of sums it up if you can make any sense of it <.<
[LG Optimus 2x] :
I agree totally, a lot of what you say Zeph makes a lot of sense. You would think they would implement the obvious wouldn't you. I like the g2 rom, I actually think its a fantastic rom, one of the best on an android device. But the mytouch rom is abysmal.

Sent from my Google Nexus Magic Wand S
[LG Optimus 2x] Mr. Spontaneous:
Coming from the outside, the G2x has more draw for me than the NS. They're both impressive phones, and both a generation beyond my Incredible, but I see the G2x as being more futureproof than the NS.

While apps may not "properly" use multicore devices, the OS does (LG has a custom Froyo on the phones that is optimized for the SOC, dual cameras, HDMI). This results in better battery life. My guess is that Ice Cream will bring official multicore support to Android handsets, but I'd like to be able to buy a phone now that can fully take on the apps of next year instead of waiting for the Nexus 3.

That, plus the addition of HSPA+ and world bands has enough draw to get me to leave Verizon (if the G2x has an unlockable bootloader).
[LG Optimus 2x] zephiK:
G2x is not a 'Nexus' or developer phone. It won't have a unlocked bootloader.

The G2x being more futureproof? Ha.. Nexus S is a Nexus phone, it is supported by Google, CyanogenMod, and many others. Stop kidding yourself.

Quad-Core phones are coming out next year.. hardware will always get better.

Even with all these new phones coming out, if you look at the Nexus One forum. It's still alive.

HELL.. if you go to the G1 forum, you'll see like maybe 2x or even 3x the number of people on the NS forum.

So don't even try to pull the 'futureproof' card. Especially when Google is onboard with maintaining its Nexus series.
[LG Optimus 2x] Darrien13:
It does count it was the first android it couldn't just start at 2.1 and the G2X is uglyy
[LG Optimus 2x] [hfm]:
I'm going to hang on to my ns until the successor or att takes my 3g away.
[LG Optimus 2x] :
Sarcasm is wasted on some people,

Everyone knows the g1 was stock Google, as it was the first android device it kinda goes without saying. I didn't include it in my summations because its PREHISTORIC. Lol

And =>2.1 is when the real business started happening;)
