[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BmoreBadBoy:
Anyone who wants to tell amazon prime to take it's DRM against android and shove it up their arse go find market helper online (not on google play).

I'm watching spongebob HD on my gn2 spoofed as an amazon kindle hd. Next, Justified!!! Now I can enjoy my subscription to the fullest once again. Make sure to leave a donation on the developer's page...

between the ads for kindle fires and the app opportunists, I think its safe to say this thread is dead.

...you are all the enemy.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BmoreBadBoy:
Say what? Well ok the thread was originally b*tching about no amazon instant video app for non kindle devices but it was transformed into finding any way to watch amazon instant videos on android devices. In any case, I shared my solution. Take it or leave it!
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gonzorito:
Bmore, FWIW...I read the link as just trying to help, not an ad.

Are you accessing by a browser with flash installed, or kindle fire .app's? I didn't think the apk route would work even with that spoof.

Presently accessing splashtop to a machine that it's always on its the best solution for me. Limitations...

The free versions are older versions. Slashtop decided to cash in and charge subscriptions for full services. Requires always in computer :(

Thanks for your help.

I may just be getting cynical. if it is legit working, that's great. just sounded too good to be true/applicable.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BmoreBadBoy:
It's for true

First download the free app from the developer's website and follow instructions. Then go to the stock browser (with most current unsupported flash installed from website, of course, and I'm running Lab rats rom - rooted) and go to amazon website. Click on desktop version. Then enjoy. Oh, make sure you make screen timeout never so it doesn't interrupt your viewing pleasure. Personally, I'll be catching up on Justified during long, boring doctor's visits with my residents...oh, and I don't blame you, it does sound too good to be true...:D

I just tried the apk...keeps fc'ing on me. let me know if you have better luck...
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spunker88:
What app?

If you want to view the desktop site just use a browser that lets you use a custom/desktop user agent like Dolphin or Firefox.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gonzorito:
I get cynical too. The spoof still won't be a "pure" convenient solution. If it works we will have to temporarily switch out to kindle hd "mode" every time we want to watch.

We all know until Amazon changes their policy / reassess an app it won't be convenient.

The DRM on flash, lack of html5 solution is just lame by Amazon. I'm sorry I bought all my videos with them.

---------- Post added at 08:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:33 PM ----------

Spunker that used to work for me fine...then something changed. Flash works on other sites but for Amazon I just get a black screen now. I have to root my new phone though...so that might be the problem for me.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BmoreBadBoy:
spunker - It's called market helper. There's one in the play store, but that's not it. Google it and you will find it.

Gonzo - I feel bad for you. I haven't bought anything, I just watch what's free on amazon instant for prime members. I guess I can't blame amazon completely...looks like shyt is being pushed in the senate to start forcing people to pay taxes on internet purchases out of state. That's sure to put a damper on sales/profits...

As far as the spoof goes, it's convenient enough for me. Takes all of 2 minutes to employ, and lasts until you reboot. Better than nothing. I wouldn't hold my breath for Amazon to change their policy...they've got kindle fires to sell and the MAFIAA on their back...
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spunker88:
Amazon makes hardly any money on Kindle Fires, they are merely a content delivery platform with profit being made from media bought for the device.

Based on this there is no reason Amazon shouldn't release an Android app. By not having one, they are just letting potential customers buy from their media from Google Play, Netflix, Hulu, etc.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BmoreBadBoy:
I would assume Amazon is going for market share, then raise prices once they've got the market in a head lock. Why else would they deny Android devices not only an app but also access via web browsers if they plan to only make money on content delivery?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gonzorito:
Thanks for the help people!

I agree it seems to me Amazon is missing it with a boat load of media purchases on non kindle devices.

Market share is a good point - I guess we will see. I personally can't stand the kindle os or limitations (my mom has one). I don't get why they don't maximize revenue from every direction.

Don't forget the value of data. Pushing apps they want. Selling ads etc. I'm sure they know what they are doing and why.

End of my ***** session.

It seems like Amazon re-enabled the option for flash video without Adobe DRM, at least on android. AIV works for me on my stock unrooted ICS tablet, using browser and sideloaded flash. So it seems like we're back to square one.

GTV

Has anyone tried to do this with the GTV app? It seems to me that it may be easier to get working just because it is not as heavily branded, but thats just a guess. Could someone point me to a GTV rom dump for framework files and the GTV apk for AIV, maybe I can give it a shot.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bookworm6:
The GTV apk from the play store is posted earlier in this thread (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=36271417&postcount=37). The problem is (afaik) that it won't install without the framework files that aren't accessible without root on the GTV, and we don't have a rooted GTV to play with. At least that's how I understand it.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezieger:
Could check with the good folks over at GTVHacker (http://forum.gtvhacker.com/) They apparently have rooted em.

Hopefully, this will get off the ground (or Amazon will release an actual app).

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forizzledizzle:
Attempted, no luck

I DL'd the APK and tried sideloading it onto my rooted Sony GTV. Told me "Application not installed"

Sorry guys :(
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tithefug:
forizzledizzle,

I think what needs to happen now is use your rooted Sony GTV and retrieve the necessary framework files to get the GTV version of the Amazon VoD APK to work on non-GTV devices.

Within the last couple of pages, it mentions what needs to be done and the possible solutions.

If you are still having issues, let me know, and I'll try to help you track down what was going on.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bookworm6:
The GTV app (at least as it was originally released) only works with LG GTV's. The app description in the Play store specifically says that it won't work with Sony GTV's, so what we need is a rooted LG GTV to pull the framework files off of.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tithefug:
This isn't accurate. I have installed this app on to several unrooted Sony NSZ-GS7s directly from the Play Store [1]. This is the device we need to get it to work.

[1] - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.amazon.avod

Alas, I cannot root my Sony NSZ-GS7. I need it to be as stable as possible as my wife and kids are the primary users.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spunker88:
There was an update file posted for the new 3rd gen Kindle Fire HDX so I grabbed the video apk out of it. It refuses to install, but did install when I placed it in /system/app. However it FCs when you try to open it just like the 2nd gen app did.

When looking at the APK in APK-Info it looks to be based off the 2nd gen version with even more Amazon permissions added.

The one thing I found interesting is that the APK has added support for 120, 320, and 480 DPI when compared with the last gen APK which only supported 160 and 240. Now the 320 DPI is there for the new HDX Kindles, but what about the 120 and 480 DPI options. Maybe the 480 DPI is there for an upcoming Amazon phone. Not sure why they would add 120 DPI support unless they are planning a low end phone. I'm hoping this means they are working towards releasing the app for everybody since they also left the min SDK at 15 (ICS 4.03)

I can post the APK if someone wants to look at it without downloading the whole 700MB+ update file.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezieger:
Great info! Thanks for digging.

...I'm feeling somewhat encouraged.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] copkay:
Alright, so it looks like we just need a system dump from a compatible Google TV device. I'd really like to see this work, so I've just purchased one of these (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009IBX7Z2 -- got it for $12 shipped :cool: ) which claims to support the "full app experience". I should get it on Thursday, and it looks as though Cydia Impactor is able to achieve root on this device much more reliably than on the Sony (http://forum.gtvhacker.com/nsz-gs7-streamer/topic1455.html). We'll see, I guess.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] copkay:
So I managed to get root access to it, however I've apparently made it quite sad by doing so. I get a popup on start that the process com.vizio.tv.settings has stopped, and I can no longer interact with it.

However, I can still access it via shell and have full access to the filesystem. What would be helpful for me to get from it? I know the install requires com.google.android.tv1, but the only thing similar I've found so far is under /data/data:

com.google.android.tv.frameworkpackagestubs

com.google.android.tv.resources
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tithefug:
A couple of pages back walked through the install process and how to find out what was needed. I guess, first attempt to lift the APK and install it locally. Then, go through the logs (logcat?) to find what it complains about. Then, search the CoStar for the necessary libraries.

Good luck!

Have you tried CM11 on your Kindle HD?

(You'll get play store, Amazon Apps except Instant Video (use flash instead)
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] testoroin:
just another try

I tried to start an amazon instant video from amazon.de (germany) with both Habit and Dolphin browser with user agent set to iPad. Both bring up an error page "Webpage not available" with the adress "aiv-de://aiv/play?asin=B00FVAFMCA".

The ASIN Number here corresponds to the movie I tried to start. It is obvious that a web browser is not able to translate the protocol descriptor "aiv-de://" and the destination ip from the URL "aiv-de://aiv" but obviously the amazon video player has the code to calculate the destination adress from this string. The ASIN Number here corresponds to the movie I tried to start.

Maybe there is a way to sniff the ip translation with a real iPad?Then it would be easy to stream the content with VLC HDR or some other client?

For flashing without needing a PC flash image gui is the bees knees, used it on my 3D faithfully since don't own a PC, all you need to do is extract the boot.img (most roms and kernels have them posted since this is now a common issue) flash it through the GUI.apk, go to recovery, wipe, flash & proceed:p
