Anyone tried to install Peggle from the amazon app store today? I keep trying and it tells me my device is not compatible and it won’t let me download it. Has anybody got this to work yet? I’m going to try a few more things when I get home today and see if that works. Maybe spoof Amazon into thinking it’s a different phone?
Posted too soon. Figured it out.
posting the solution would be helfpul to others
Lol, yea sorry . I just logged in on the PC to the app store, clicked on the peggle app and clicked get the app, or whatever. Then went back to the phone and looked in "my apps", and it was there ready to download. Worked like a charm! The game runs fine on the phone as well. You will have to be on wifi to download it though, luckily we have wifi here at work.

Doesn't work if you're [cough] outside the USA as it can tell location from your browser
I got it 'by other means' and it's running sweet on my Streak. It's strange as I can get this working but I still cant get PvZ to run.
Can't download on my phone with wireless. Keeps saying I am not on wireless when I am.

This worked for me, too. It said "unsupported" but when I looked at the AmazonStore app on my phone, it had a big blue button labeled INSTALL next to Peggle. Clicked and done.
Peggle works great on the streak. No issues.
I bought it in the PC store, too, but it doesn't show up under my apps. Could it be that the new version of the amazon store app only shows "supported apps"?
Could be. I think the newest update changed that.

Anyone having issues with the market right now?

Yes. They seem to be having some issues.

yeah same here. grrr
Ok, just glad I'm not the only one. Was going to flash a new ROM, but I'll wait till this gets worked out.

HA!! I just switched to a new ROM and I have been posting in the devs thread telling them the ROM isn't allowing me to download anything from the market. Oops! At least I know where the problem is coming from now though. Too bad I have wiped my phone and now can't download Titanium Backup to restore.
Also I have tried 3G, 4G and Wifi. The market just isn't working.
Yeah, maps won't update. Guess ill have to wait. Now says my maps aren't even installed.

1 out of 3 downloaded (smart keyboard pro) maps and another app are hanging as well. I was wondering what was going on. Glad I saw this thread I was considering a wipe. Using calkulins rom.
This is driving me crazy.
It goes from "Starting download" to "Download paused"
dumb
Same here. Started this afternoon when I went to update some apps. Goes straight to download paused (never even seen that before) and after some time says download was unsuccessful. Tried downgrading market but it didn't help. I hope Google gets the market issues fixed soon. They keep secretly updating it and half the time it works and the other half it gets serious bugs.
What a cluster, but I'm glad It's not just me.

I downloaded the Amazon app of the day to my phone.
When I tried to do the same thing with my TF...Amazon said my device wasn't compatible...
How do i find this app in my phone to drop box it to my TF? I tried looking in System/app and downloads and download...and couldn't find it.
Side load it, its an app not optimized for Honeycomb, but it will probably still load.

Well, Im stumped again.
I downloaded the app on my phone but how do I get it to my TF? The appstore won't let me.
I think that I'm down to a manual transfer.... I don't know.

Might be a dumb question to answer your dumb question but is your phone rooted? If you were able to install it to the phone, would using titanium backup work to copy the program off so you can restore it on the TF?
I just downloaded from the amazon app on my android phone, went on to the TF amazon app. Located my app via menu and the app should be rdy to download. No compatibility notice. Likewise, you can download from your PC, it'll say not compatible. Just go back into the TF amazon app and repeat.

I'm guessing you're talking about Peggle?
Buy it from amazon's website/phone.
Then open the Amazon app on your Transformer
press menu
select My apps
then in the list of apps, click install. It'll install and play fine even though it's not really supported (the tablet).
Ahh..thank you...I didn't think about the "my apps" part of it...that's great....I'll check it this morning
I went to download tapatalk from the market, but it says 'Purchased'. I haven't used this app before and cannot purchase/install it because of this.
Any ideas what I can do to solve this?

This only ever happened to me when I used a pirated version of an app first, then tried to buy it. I like to try the app before I waste my money...lol...I can't remember if doing wat mentioned above worked or not tho.

Try disabling automatic restore, and then clearing market data and cache to see if that helps.

Huh ???? !!!!
I find it hard to believe Android paid app security is done on the phone !
I can understand perhaps the Market app getting confused, but that shouldn't let you update an app that was installed as a pirate version.
I develop apps and I've never been able to update my paid app from the Market after "sideloading" my app.
And customers who bought via Paypal outside of the Market are never able to update via the Market.

I know, but I didnt even have any credit card registered, ive tried the same thing on other apps but it doesnt work, i dont think that it was because of the ROM that I got it free but maybe an error occured at that time or something

Tried everything mentioned here. Even after flashing a new rom, it still says I purchased it. Even if I go to market.android.com on my laptop, it says I purchased it, but does not allow me to download it.
I downloaded a pirated version of the app so I could try it out for more than 15 minutes, I liked it so I went to purchase it, but with no luck!
Try to unchain the app from Market using Titanium Backup, then try to purchase it once again.

Try to downgrading your Market and then purchase. I did something like that with a app.
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using xda premium
The only way it will work is if you create a new gmail account. There is NO other way, no matter how many times you clear data, or use Titanium to remove the app or downgrade market, it will always say you purchased.
Market enabler will also not work.
EDIT: Try this though. Flash the ROM, and when signing into your gmail acc un check the box that says keep this phone backed up with my google account. Do not restore previous backups.
I recently emailed Android Market Support Team, I had exact same issue. This is what I got in reply.
Hi Michal,
Thanks for writing in and for letting us know about this issue - we're aware that some users are seeing apps as "Purchased" but are getting a "Download declined" error. We're presently investigating this issue and will update you as soon as we have more information. I may be requesting further information about the circumstances of this issue, and I really appreciate your continued patience and cooperation in resolving this situation. If you have any further questions, please let me know.
Best,
Lynn

@Desire HD & CyanogenMod
Same issues here
Hopefully this gets resolved soon!
Been itching to play Order & Chaos... tried installing a "cracked" version a while ago, didn't work too well on my phone then. Now I have the Samsung GN and want to give it a try... says 'Purchased' and gives me that error
I have the same issue. This has especially been happening with Market v3.4.4. If you sideload an apk then sometimes Market registers it with your account as purchased but when it tries to access the app it declines as there's no actual purchase. I emailed Market support and got the same reply. It doesn't happen with all apps but with a few. It's quite a random occurrence. No way to reproduce it each time and no way to fix it from our side. It's a Google side issue.
Also, I'm not very sure, but I've experienced this problem with a few apps distinctly after restoring a backup using MyBackup Pro. Maybe it is something to do with batch restoring Market links, when you include apps that you haven't downloaded from Market. During regular usage of my phone, even with sideloading apps, I haven't noticed the issue repeating with any other apps. I only remember it happening after a restore.

Have the same problem with Swiftkey x. Shows up in the market as purchased when it wasn't.
But as I really like it I wanted to purchase it properly, but can't thru the market.
I've since purchased it thru AndroidIt App.
So all good now but any updates have to be done thru AndroidIt app as the market still says I've purchased it then says can't download cause i haven't purchased it!!!!

I have the same issue with Cut the rope and Mincraft PE. I want to support the developers and get updates but now I can't!
I've experienced the same issue before... but I was able to purchase from market.android.com site.

Registered just to say how i solved the problem of Swiftkey X on my galaxy ace. I uninstalled market updates, in manage applications, then go directly to Android market and purchase it, make sure the Market app doesn't automatically update before you try.
I was trying to download Facedroid - Purchase it - and it said I already purchased it and won't install. I went to applications and uninstalled the updates for the market but no go. I did read through some of the posts on similar topics here but didn't seem applicable. Any ideas??

Which ROM are you on? maybe you can clear caches and give it another shot ......
Just a thought... are you using go launcher? They recently fixed a problem where icons were not showing up for installed apps. My thinking here is its already installed but you just can't see it.
If this its the case, install the update for go launcher. goto settings and manage apps and uninstall the program you're wanting. then go back to the market and get it again and it wont hide from you anymore.
I'm probably a mile off base, so onto the next suggestion if I am.
If you can read this it was sent using my GT-P7510.
I'm running stock OS. No changes. I am running ADW though. I went and cleared cache and removed updates for the Market. Odd....it says I purchased it even on the internet linked site so that leads me to believe it's my profile with Google.
Funny enough...I don't mind trying apps, but if I want it, I'll buy it. I wanted this app and was trying to pay for it and Puff the Magic Dragon showed up!! No app for you, come back...one year!
Try closing ADW and see if it shows up in the stock app drawer.
Did you remove your credit/debit card off your google wallet/checkout account? I did that once and had the same problem. Once i added and verified my mastercard, i was able to download again.
same problem here, (even) the (web) market thinks I've already bought the app and I can't buy it anymore
Im havimg the same problem. I cant purchase swiftkey, says on the apps page i purchased it, but when i click install it says i didnt purchase the app.
Many people are posting they have the same problem, but nobody is saying if they have tried the suggested fixes or not. ???

I get the opposite, Market tells me I purchased an app correctly then tells me when I ask to install it that I did not purchase it, lol

I'm actually having the same issue, but it's with downloading ADWLauncher EX itself. The market website thinks I've purchased it, but I haven't. I sideloaded ADW first, to see how well it works. Deleted it, tried to purchase it, not working. Cleared cache, uninstalled, reinstalled, rebooted, everything. It has to be an issue with the market itself. So, yeah. Just a small confirmation.
I've installed a couple of versions of the amazon app and the app will not allow me to download and install the instant video apk. and even if i manually install the instant video apk the app will not recognize it. anyone else having similar issues?
Works for me, watching a video now.
Make sure you have the amazon underground app store.
