alexalex Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Google has rolled out a minor update to the Android Market website so that it now recognizes devices that didn?t originally ship with the Android Market. In other words, if you install the Android Market on an officially unsupported device such as the HP TouchPad, Barnes & Noble NOOK Tablet, or Amazon Kindle Fire, you can now see your device from the Amazon Market website. What that means is that you can visit the website in any web browser, find an app you want to download, and send it to your mobile device automatically.... That?s the good news. The bad news is I?ve also noticed that the Android Market on devices now seems to recognize some apps you?ve installed from non-Market sources, and it wants to update them but can?t.... http://liliputing.com/2011/11/android-market-website-now-recognizes-hp-touchpad-nook-tablet-kindle-fire.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"The bad news is I?ve also noticed that the Android Market on devices now seems to recognize some apps you?ve installed from non-Market sources, and it wants to update them but can?t...."

S00N3R FR3AK Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 OK so I am thinking about getting a kindle fire. Does this mean I just install the apps from the browser? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
still1 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 OK so I am thinking about getting a kindle fire. Does this mean I just install the apps from the browser? yes, you can install app from browser and send it to your fire. but first you have to install market on fire only then the browser will recognize your fire. and to install google market you need to root... its a little bit complex process to root and install market but you can find the instructions here.. those are simple steps btw. http://www.redmondpi...-fire-tutorial/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
