How To Get Amazon Apps Outside USA - Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps

This guide will tell you how to install the apps from amazon.com from your Android phone if you live outside the US. Now you can enjoy the Free App Of The Day from Amazon.com
Step 0: First go to www.amazon.com and click Sign In.
Step 1: Create a new Amazon account by selecting “No, I am a new customer”, and complete the registration wizard.
Step 2: Put US Address and Phone Number. Just enter any number starting with +1. Easier than that, you can just enter +1!
*Alternatively, you can generate random US address and phone number, etc. with www.fakenamegenerator.com
Step 3: Assign US address as account’s 1-click default address.
Step 4: Next, go to “Add a Credit or Debit Card” section. Paypal provides developers with sets of test credit card account numbers which can also be used in Amazon account. USE THIS CREDIT CARD NUMBER 378282246310005 (AMERICAN EXPRESS)
Step 5: Your Amazon account is now configured to get any free apps from Amazon AppStore
Step 6: Now you can download and install Amazon AppStore for Android. Run Amazon AppStore App and login with this new username/password. Now you can download all free apps from Amazon.
NOTE1: You will still not be able to purchase any paid apps (apps which are not free) with these test credit cards.
NOTE2: It is highly recommended to make a new user rather than using US address in preexisting usernames.
Note3: So, to buy an app...Purchase the app in the Appstore on the Amazon website or on your device - the initial payment will fail
Visit the Digital Orders Page page and you will see your pending purchases
Choose the option to retry the purchases, this time using your non-US card
The payments will complete and you will be able to download the apps on your device.

I already tried all this for hours but The apps just wouldn't be available.. I can remember it was asking some number.. Which i couldn't get to add there.. I guess it was some kind of code .

"We could not process your order because of geographical restrictions on the product which you were attempting to purchase."
For the ones who are able to get it to work, can you share what data you chose? Like which CC number, what the address is, etc.

Tried this for some time and I finally got it! Ok for the address, I prefer to search it off the Web. Just search "random California address" on Google etc. The rest of the details, go to fakenamegenerator. Remember, when they ask for mobile number, it must be in this format "+1222333444". You must include the +1 for it to work
Hit thanks if I helped

How to Pay for Apps ! ?

Is using a Credit Card the only way I can pay for apps ?
Any option to use PayPal ?
seems a bit over the top of a $0.99 app !
Why is it over the top? It's not like it costs more than $0.99 just because you used a credit card.
Not hassle, just seems like it would be easier with paypal !
Thanks

Actually, the mechanism the Android market uses is far easier than Paypal because it is basically Google checkout, and it does remember your credit/debit card details - you don't have to enter your card number on every purchase!

Dave
But, my bank doesn't charge me £1.50 for a purchase from another country on paypal yet it does for google checkout.

Not necessarily true!
If you use a Google Apps for Domains account as your primary phone account, you will need a regular Gmail address for Google Checkout as well, because Apps4Domains accounts are not supported.

Android App

I just created my app. It works flawlessly.
My question is after I upload it to market and selected to be a paid app.
How do I implement in app billing feature within my own app. Thanks.
This is the only thing stopping me to complete it successfully.
If a person clicks on buy on my app. It will generate an error.

I have a developer paid account. After I make it published, I upload it to market. In my developer console it has it where a feature called in-app below my app icon. I click on it, it says this app does not have billing permission.
So in order for someone to make a purchase, my app needs to be integrated with in app billing.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
Sounds like you're missing the billing permission in your Manifest file. I don't remember the syntax off-hand, but you can Google it...like <uses-permission="MarketBilling"> or some such thing LOL
You do know you have to code all the in-app billing and that it only processes a transaction; it does not provide any content delivery.

How to download apps outside the US

If you would like to download apps from the Amazon Market outside the US you need a Credit Card Number.
Paypal offers some CC-numbers for free: xxx.paypalobjects.com/en_US/vhelp/paypalmanager_help/credit_card_numbers.htm
use www instead of xxx!
Add one Number with an US-Adress to your Amazon Account and enjoy
This works also for the free app of the day!
I am using one of these "test credit card numbers" with my kindle fire in Austria and I can download free apps and the "free app of the day"!
Okay guys.
Thread cleaned, nothing wrong with it,and its completely safe.
Its a well known solution, its just not working always. But its not against rules

did you change your address to USA?
Use hotspot shield to set up or log into your usa account.
Use US address and the previous links usa card info, make this card your default one click purchase.
It works.
Worked for me, too.
Just choosing one of my US previous delivery addresses as the billing address for one of the fake numbers of the first post, and setting this "new" card as the default for one-click did the trick for me.
Only thing that still doesn't work are the movies. I am a Prime subscriber and would *love* to use my free video library. I guess that requires a VPN, isn't it?
Best.
Felipe.
Worked for me!!!
Awesome Thanks a lot
Felipe, Yeah You need VPN...It won't work with US credit card & Address
I had seen this before but was scared off by warnings of Amazon zapping my account. Lack of those warnings here made me give it a go (totally illogical I know) and it worked perfectly.

Read passports with NFC

I hadn't read this before, yesterday I happened to put my phone on my passport and the NFC sound emitted, I chose the app "NFC tag info" which informed me that if you enter the DOB, expiry date and passport number that it can decrypt it, which it did, including a copy of the picture. So I've now done a backup of my passport to an XML file, might be useful if I lose it while abroad.
Think positive man
But I don't think authorities would believe in that as a fake one could be made..

I couldn't care less if yahoo or Google sees my family photos and videos. That's why I use Flickr as unlimited cloud storage for pictures and YouTube as unlimited cloud storage for videos. That doesn't mean it's a good idea to upload the same stuff to some random guys cloud service. And obviously that's not common sense.

Well, consider it a good practice. If you wouldn't store your sensitive data to any major, well knowed cloud service, why you should even consider uploading it to a random, unknow hosting service?
The guy is offering a storage service for free. Then it is up for the user to take it as is or reject it then not use the service. Why just criticize it based on 'they will steal my stuff'. Then by the premise that they will see/grab your data, why trust in ANY cloud service in the first place?

I can imagine data that's completely not interesting for Google and perfectly safe in google drive while a small cloud service could be interested in misusing it.
Im not gonna continue discussing this. I asked for more info about the company, op delivered it.
Seems to not let me finish creating my account. I click the verification link in the email and enter my email, desired username and password, and the page goes blank. I can then not log in so I assume the account was not created.
Nevermind, seems I just had to wait a while. Seems to be working now.
Thank you for this service.
