I got an apk for apktop but when I installed it, it doesn't work. The new Facebook app has three separate apps. The main app, messenger and camera so there should be 3 icons. I have one icon, and when I open it, the camera app opens. I cannot get to the main Facebook Feed. Anyone have a fix?

You can use ATK to switch to the main Facebook process. It isn't the greatest of workarounds, but it does work.
I noticed that last night, but only in the stock book shelf launcher. I just always use GO Launcher.
Yeah with golauncher installed it's all good! Thanks guys!

do i need to be on cm7/aosp rom? what setup are you guys using?
The browser is snappy, just like it is on the Kindle... unfortunately, it has the big, clunky toolbar, which means you don't get a lot of browsing space on the smaller phone screen.
It's fun to play around with, but it isn't really a browser replacement.
I just tried it. It works, but as stated, it's very clustery. I wouldn't use it as a daily browser unless they resized the UI.
I just installed CM9 and realized that the book stand app is gone. Is there any way to get it back? Thanks

Since I rooted my Fire I seem to have lost my books and can't seem to fond them anywhere. This is on the Kindle Launcher. And also Twitter closes unexpectedly all the time. Main question here though is how to get my books back in the Kindle Launcher.

Fixed, just completely unrooted my Fire. I still have GameBoid so it's all good.

You couldve just downloaded the kindle app from amazon and all your books are there, including where you left off.

Yeah, but it's not the same. I bought the Fire over other tablets for the Fire, not the app, I have my phone for that.

Actually that is not true..the kindle app for android screws with your subscription deliveries for Mag's and books. What I did was after root I immediately put root keeper on there and unrooted .. that will help.
When I lost my subset I went into the system > apps folder and reinstalled kindle for otter. Then I ramln a sync and I was downloading my suns again.
My wife bought some subset and books when we first got the kindle fire but when those expire I am going full ice and Ak going to get books and Mags thrum play or Barnes and noble's app and ditch amazon altogether

Good advice here ... thanks. A friend came to me with his KF today saying his books would no longer open (nor did they show a book jacket/title). His KF is/was rooted, but running stock ROM. Found your post and had his books up and running in no time.
Lol dayum! I have since turned my autocorrect OFF...
Heh.. i got that answer from another here by the name of straylight so i must give credit where credit is due but yw
Peace

I am using a TSF Shell and SBD Shell. Question is whence I'm using non stock launchers the kindle app doesn't open, and I cant read books because they obviously aren't displayed. Any fixes. Non Rooted btw.

The Kindle app framework is built into the launcher. The only way to use it otherwise would be to sideload the newest version from Google Play.
Quite frankly, the easiest way to do it is to just have a link to the stock launcher on your homepage on the alternate launcher. It shows up in the app drawer as "launcher" with the kindle logo and you can just tap that and then just click on books like normal. Otherwise I would say root and pop on an ICS ROM
After I installed Google play and updated Google service, now when I try to open the kindle app it just goes to the home screen (adw)
Is this a known issue?

I have Kindle working just fine on my OTA updated US unlocked Fire phone with Google Play Store reinstalled.
Thanks for confirming.
Mine is not rooted... or I forgot... don't use this phone much.
Anyone knows how can I reinstall it? There's no kindle app on Amazon store. Man Amazon really dropped the ball on whatever android experience they were going for... I might just try to install the one from play store
Ah wait, if yours rooted that means you're on a much older version of fire os. Mine was bought late so I have the last version

Hi, gcbxda. My Fire Phone is not rooted. I moved to 4.6.1 a few days ago. Just a shot in the dark - try clearing cache, etc. Go to settings, applications and parental controls, manage applications, set the filter to all, select Bookstore.

My Unlocked 4.6.1 phone has 2 Amazon kindle icons now. App info says Book store ver. 2.2.2000429100 which opens fine and works, and the 2nd is Amazon Kindle ver. 1.5_1357580710 which does nothing like you described. Weird part is the first one has no name under it.
Mine is the same as your first one. It says Books under the icon. I think this one came with the phone, but it may have been automatically updated in Google Play Store.
aha. yeah. i have two icons as well. in pretty sure i never installed from Google store. it must be how the annoying fire home screen works. somehow it needs those two apps and hide from the user... which other launchers do not do.
