[Q] Google Play Store stopped unexpectedly on Kindle Fire - Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I have a 1st Gen Kindle Fire and I just rooted it a few hours ago. I've been trying to figure out how to put the Play Store on it, but nothings working. I'm pretty sure it's all installed, but I get the "process com.android.vending has stopped unexpectedly" message. How do I get around this? I downloaded the latest files and everything seems to work well except that it crashes every time I open it. Yes I've changed the read only permissions in the ES File Explorer. What else can I do? I'd like to have the Play Store on here by the end of the day. I'm running 6.3.2.

Put it in system/app

[Q] [PA-Otter2.54] HBO GO Issue

Alright, so I have an issue. My issue is regarding the HBO GO app. I downloaded it off of the play store and now every time I try to launch it is fails and crashes on start-up. (I've heard that you can edit the build.prop to get this to work; if that's the case, here is my build.prop. If anyone has an heal it would be greatly appreciated.(This is the ROM i'm using.)

Yes.

Google Drive not working?

Is google drive working for anybody? I click on it and a dialog box comes up and says "Unfortunately, drive has stopped" I've tried uninstalling it and rebooting multiple times. Maybe it's something with a new update because it was working not that long ago
Yup
I noticed it stopped working a few weeks ago. The current version on my phone is 1.2.228.32, and I think I remember the Kindle and phone versions updated at/around the same time. At this point, I'm just waiting for the next update, hoping that it'll be fixed...

That's the version I'm running without issue.
Try clearing data and cache and then possibly reinstall.

I did try that and several reinstalls. I also tried converting it to a system app in case it needed permissions it wasn't getting, but no dice. It gives me an option to generate a bug report like any other crash, but the Play Store crashes if I try to do that ("Google Play Store has stopped") without an option to report.
It's nice to hear that you can run it though. Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this? I've also tried clearing data and cache on the Play Store, but that's about as far as I went. Would be nice to get it running again so I can edit documents...
I found a backup I had made about 4 months ago! It's version 1.1.470.15 and it seems to be working just fine. If anyone's interested, I can send you the apk via a PM (I don't think I can post attachments yet due to my newbie-ness).

[Q] Minor Amazon Shop issue

Very minor question here. I just completed rooting HD Fire 8.9 8.4.3 and everything seems to be fine except the Amazon Shop link in the bar fails to launch Shop. I keep getting an error. All the other links are fine, and it still seems registered to my account. I searched through some threads and found this mentioned twice, but didn't see any fixes. Is this just a known issue?
Thanks

Sounds like it got updated from google play, uninstall it and it should go back to the stock version, and block it from auto update in google play

Uninstall Play, or something else? I installed Play and the rest of the google apps from KF first aide.
Sorry I meant Amazon store app
Yup, that was it. I appreciate it. For anyone else, just reinstall the amazonshop.apk.
Lol it just happend me again today, I'm going to try to detach it from market using titanium backup. That should help

[Q] Netflix won't complete loading

I've been using my Amazon Fire TV for about 2 weeks and love it. netflix was working fine. Today it will not complete loading anything. Just hangs there. Nothing has changed since yesterday in the setup.
Any ideas?
thanks,
Patti
I don't know if this will help or not but assuming you have already cleared data/cache I had a similar problem where Netflix would do the same thing before eventually saying to try again later or try another video.
My solution was to use a new HDMI cable. I don't know why Netflix doesn't give you a more helpful error message but such is life.
Hope this helps!

Play store download pending

Hello folks,
I am trying to update my apps from play store on my gen 1 fire tv but instead of animating the progress bar I see a message there saying download pending. This is the first time it has happened to me and I have had the play store installed since I got my fire tv.
I tried removing and reinstalling playstore and play services but got the same message.
Is anyone else facing a similar situation?

Hey, sorry for posting here but I got the exact same issue on my Xiaomi Redmi 2. Did you ever figure out how to fix this?
No unfortunately not yet.

I too have this problem and it only started recently. At first (over a year ago) you had to remove play services because when it updated it broke the playstore but you could still download apps and they would work, just not the ones that need play services (YouTube etc.). Now its doing that same thing with play services removed and market helper does nothing to remedy it.
