My stepmother has a Kindle Fire. I want to install the Amazon Free app of the day (from link here): http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html?ie=UTF8&docId=1000626391
I go to link, download the file, and it comes up with the .apk. I install it, and click "OPEN". When the installation is done, it takes me back to the web page to download it.
I enabled it to allow to install 3rd party apps. The Amazon account is setup with a debit card and onclick is enabled.
If I go to manage my Apps and view all apps, the icon shows up twice. But there is no uninstall button to click; it is grayed out.
I have done this on 3 phones and 1 other kindle fire, and had no problems.
Anyone have any ideas?
She has the amazon store on her kindle but not the app store
- Unless the Fire has been modified, this is...impossible. What you're attempting to do quite frankly just doesn't make sense. The Kindle Fire comes with the Appstore pre-installed. Just tap on the "Apps" link on the top bar of the home screen and there should be a "Store" link on the next page. That's all you need; it's the exact same store. – eldarerathis Dec 27 '12 at 16:32
