How to download apps outside the US - Kindle Fire General

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

Thank you all

They're test numbers. Public information, no money on it or anything. It's made to test in sandboxes etc.

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.

Amazon Appstore - Bypass access for peeps outside the us?

I went as far as getting an email with the link for the amazon appstore apk. I have a completed profile in my amazon account, but when I try to get the free app of the day, it still says its not available in my country. :'( Any workaround?

not really, they are DRM protected. Even i tip the .apk off my phone and try to install it to a buddies phone it'll show that he not the authorized owner of the phone.
He has ATT and wanted me to git him the PvZ a while back and it just wouldn't work. Nothing can be done until they open it up for everyone.

I'd be glad to, but unfortunately it's illegal and I might offend someone here at the XDA. I do love the community and respect everyone's opinion, and I'm not looking foreward to be banned. Hope you understand. For those who are truly interested, they can send me a private message and we'll keep it to ourselves.

How To Get Amazon Apps Outside USA

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 .

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

[WIP]My Xperia Play Site

Hi, I made a site for the Play. Basically it's meant to host files for devs so people can download Rom's etc. If you're a dev and you want your files hosted just PM me
Here's the site: http://www.xplay-roms.co.cc
It's still a WIP but what do you guys think?
Update 04/09/12: PC crashed, lost original files but rest assured I'll try my best to get it updated, the site still works though
I would love to have a Gin2JellyBean Repository on your website
your site doesnt look that good but i wish you good luck with it
Its nice to have more places to get stuff for our xplays. Out of curiousity Is there any free ways to open a site like yours? And do you have to pay a lot for the storage for the downloads? PM any info if you have a chance. Thanks and good luck with yours.

Looks good to me. It's very simplistic, but I think that's a plus, since people shouldn't get lost trying to find where the heck to actually download the ROMs this way ;D
Free unmemorable domain, using free uninspired web template.
Not a bad effort but nothing I haven't seen 10000x before.

Sent from my R800x using xda premium
Hi, thanks for the feedback, I'm always interested in your opinions. As for your questions, I pay for the hosting around $40 a year I think and I just registered a free .co.cc domain. Well anyways this was just a quick setup and only a temporary design, I'm planning on re-vamping it soon.
I normally spend a week or two on most sites but this one was a quick 5-10 minute job just using a template. Anyways I'd love to hear your suggestions on expansion and development, if you don't mind?
Oh, and if you have any questions, regarding hosting your files, etc. just PM me -

AVG 2012, website is clean to me. I like how it's simplistic, easy to find stuff. Imo you should upload FW and Binary's recovery for a tools section.
Just a thought/ request.
Been a while sorry but thanks for the suggestions guys. The site is virus free I can assure you, my guess is the domain name ends in .co.cc so that's probably why it was detected as "unsafe". Anyway I've started a complete redesign and I'm uploading some new content so bear with me a while if the site isn't functional - thanks
Site looks great, however I have an option that would be MUCH more convenient .
This is my file host for a game called Minebuilder: www.fileblox.cu.cc
Its got an uploader available to everyone (you can add a password).
This would save you time uploading.
EDIT:
If anyone wants, I will create a sample site, with uploader and sample repositories (with a cool web file browser) and if all goes well, maybe myself and the OP could share our knowledge, or something if the sort
Nice! 2GB's of space would be awesome, but simple uploader has higher priority :3

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..

A discussion about the root tool the original poster posted a link for has been going on in this forum since 12 Sep 2013. Read thread titled [ROOT] SGP312 FTF 10.3.1.C.0.136 Root (No need OTA). Several people have said they successfully gained root access using the tool. Also read threads titled Root for SGP311/10.3.1.C.0.136? beginning at post 14, and [ROOT][SHARE] VRoot 1.6.0.3690 - 1-Click Root Method - Lenovo A706, Walkman F800 etc.

... and the FBI infecting a bunch of TOR users, the NSA tapping into the internet backbone via AT&T, GCHQ geotagging everything that moves and garbage cans that don't ... "They" already have all your information. China is no better or no worse than than the US, Canada, GB, the EU. Everybody is spying on everybody. Governments, corporations, cable companies, Google, Twitter, XDA forums and me are all engaged in the active/passive collection of your data as it passes through our systems.
Privacy advocates missed their boat 20 years ago. We can try and hide, by using SSL, VPNs and encrypting everything. But in the end, we will fail because individuals just cannot compete with the determined application of unlimited resources brought to bare against us by those who have those intentions and resources.
Be it hiding from a country, a company or an individual, if you want to stay safe, take the battery out of your devices, unplug, disconnect and stay away from all networked infrastructure - telephones, easypass, credit cards, passports, store loyalty cards...
...or you just just blame a lowly Chinese hacker for all your woes and carry on like normal...

How does being suspicious about a root exploit that popped up on a Chinese site overnight make me blame Chinese hackers for all my problems as normal? I don't blame the Chinese for anything, I would be suspicious of this no matter where it popped up if they went about releasing it the same way. It is always good to be suspicious about root exploits and to look into it instead of just going with it.
You need to take a chill pill and understand that not everyone is badmouthing people all the time, when they posted a warning to ,make people think before they just went with a root exploit and to double check that nothing malicious is being injected along with it.

so does this actually work? I just got my tablet, it did an update as soon as itr connected to the internet, im assuming it was a software/firmware update...
I want to root the tablet, but i dont think i will change the ROM bacause the standard one seems really good, but i do want to be able to use titanium backup!
With this rooting method do i need to have an unlocked bootloader?
