I want to let family and friends use my Fire but do not want them buying anything, is there an app lock that will work with the fire. Thanks.
Not that I'm aware of. I would guess you would have to log into the amazon account tied to the Kindle and disable/remove all forms of payment.
I know my wife hadn't set up her new credcard, all the old ones were in so she couldn't even download "free" apps since you still need to buy them.
On that note, I hate email spam everytime I "buy" free stuff.
so far the only thing i have found is to have my "one click" goto a empty prepaid card... then if someone tries to buy something it goes to my email saying that it failed and then i can (if its something i want) click in the email... sign in though my phone and change the payment to another card i have saved in amazon.
if you want to block total access including free apps i use the "app protector" and there is a free version in the amazon market for 7 day trial.
The best option that I see is to what was mentioned using a prepaid credit card. I use that with a lot of things of this nature. That way these companies get what they want (my credit card), and I am at a basic no risk situation because there is no money on it for them to take. A good example was when DirecTV said I didn't return a box on time and they tried to take hundreds of dollars out of my account without notice.
That being said I know Amazon wants us to buy buy buy, but the kindle is a great option for kids. No parent wants their child to one click access to their credit card.
This is the only thing I've found. You can pick & choose what they have access to. I wish you could disable one-click on certain devices!!

Nexus 7 "linked to Google account option" - safe to be resold without opening?
I got sick of waiting for my Play order N7 to be shipped so I bought one from Tesco Direct... but now the Play order is shipping. Ooops.
When I ordered I selected the option to have it pre-linked to my Google account. Can anyone who also selected this option tell me what the difference was when they first booted up the device?
I want to re-sell my Play N7 as "Brand new in box" but if it would be a security risk to give someone else a device pre-linked to my account then I would have to open it first to reset it.
Does it ask for your account password on first boot? If so, is it possible to ignore this and sign in as a different Google account (and not have any remnants of my Google account remaining after they do this)?
I did find a similar thread here but that was from before anyone had received their order and was just going on the word of CS reps; I wondered if anyone could confirm the situation now that orders have shipped...?
What's wrong with refusing delivery? Full refund so I've heard!

Nothing in theory but...
1) I'm having it sent to work as I live in a flat so it would be a pain to have it sent there during the day.
2) I'm on holiday after tomorrow (hence I was so desperate to get the device before I went away).
3) Our receptionists can be a bit dense so I don't entirely trust them with requests such as refusing delivery for a specific package, i.e. I'll tell them but I'll probably end up with the package when I get back anyway.
4) Now that they've sold out on Play, they are selling on eBay for more than I paid.
Because #3 might end up happening, I want to know whether I can execute #4 successfully

I got a 8GB PS Nexus 7 and sold it to a co-worker but opened it up first to check for defects and what not. If I recall correctly (was in a haze looking at the amazing device ) it does require you to put in your password and also gives the option for another Google account. I skipped it all and booted into the home screen then decided to just factory reset. But if you don't want to open it, I'm lmost 90% sure you should be ok Hope that helps :good:

I can tell you for a fact--I forgot that I selected that option and when it said "Hey, jcracken!" it kinda creeped me out. It actually did say that, I think I also use that name for my Google+ account or something. Anyways, it does ask for your password, and there was a button that said "Not jcracken?"
Ok thanks guys, I will attempt to get our reception to refuse delivery but if that doesn't work out at least I'm confident in my back up plan now! :good:

I ordered mine 1st July so just after the cut-off for receiving last week rather than this week.
I'm wondering if that was the cause of some delays in shipment. Does it come up before you even have a chance to connect WIFI? Means it was done at the factory.

It comes up after you've connected to WiFi.
I'm pretty certain that the Nexus in the box knows nothing about your login id, and it is only when you've connected to the internet that it transmits the serial number or MAC address of the device to Google which in turn allows Google to "pre-populate" the login ID since they presumably maintain a database of which serial/MAC they dispatched to Play store customers.

Dave
For ultimate piece of mind change your Google password now that it has shipped, that way if (big if!) for some unknown reason it was shipped enabled with your account + password the account wouldn't be able to purchase anything
There are dozens of threads about this issue, but no-one knows how to solve it. It's time to badger Google about it. Here's how:
Click this link:
http://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/request.py?&policy=apps&contact_type=contact_policy
Select "Payment, purchasing or pricing", then "Other" (do not select "My payment method is grayed out" as it takes you nowhere).
Type your name, then your Google order number if you know what it is. I don't, so I just typed "NA".
Under Issue description I typed the following:
"I can't use my Google Play balance ($25.00) for any order. This option is grayed out and the following error is displayed: "This payment method cannot be used for this purchase. (RBC)". Please advise.
Thanks,

Where did you activate your Nexus 7 and which country do you use it in? It's only possible to use the 25USD in the USA as far as I know. This is how I bypassed it in the UK (Wanted to buy TV shows, Music etc).
1. Download and install Hotspot Shield.
2. Download and install Connectify.
Doing this will;
1. Make your connection think it's a USA connection via a proxy
2. Allow you to forward the USA connection to your Nexus 7 using a personal WIFI Hotspot.
Now my Nexus 7 thinks it is in the USA and this allows me to use Play Music, Play Magazines, Play Movies AND TV (This includes buying it).
Please NOTE this is my second Nexus 7. The first one I used on my primary email and received the £15 then I tried this with my second. I used a new gmail address and to my surprise it works flawlessly. That is untill I run out of Credit. I've now added both emails to my Nexus(es?) and can access all the Apps and Games from my UK account and everything else from my US account. My only gripe is all the prices are in USD and have to buy apps and games on my other device to stop it from realising I'm not in the USA.

To the best of my knowledge I used a US-based VPN throughout the process. Maybe I missed something.

Then please report it to Google. The more support tickets they get about this issue, the less likely they are to ignore it.
Google's reply but helpless
I get the replay from Google for same subject but it is not helpful at all. Can anyone work out ?
The contents of Google reply as below:

I know how frustrating this can be, especially when you would like to use it. Below I have provided the info needed to help you with this issue. And some explanation on the credit itself.
Your Google Play $25 credit is our gift to you when you have, or add, a valid form of payment to your Google Wallet account.
Your Google Play credit is ready to use right away. Just open the Google Play Store app on your Nexus 7 or visit play.google.com and start shopping, and remember to select “Google Play balance” when you’re checking out. If you have credit remaining, you can use it on your next Google Play purchase.
Your Google Play credit can only be used on Google Play. You can shop on the web at play.google.com or on the Google Play Store app on your phone.
*Note that the $25 credit may not be used to buy a subscription or in the Devices section of play.google.com toward the purchase of a Nexus device or on any device accessories.

I think they're deliberately being useless. It's more cost-effective for Google to keep the $25 (multiplied by the number of users) than to actually provide this sum to customers.
I have written to Google and have received 4 replies from the CS person who kept copy pasting information from the FAQs. None of their copy-pasted information had anything to do with what I was telling them. >_> I'm so frustrated... Not so much that I can't access the remaining balance I have but rather that I can't change my home address...
I am considering canceling my order, due to Google lying to me every time i inquire about it, as i still really have no idea what is going on. I may cancel it or i may just sell it locally when i get it, if i get it that is.
I am new to Android and I have a few questions.
1. When i checked out i clicked the check-box that said " link this device to my Google account". Lets say that i take delivery of the phone and then unbox it with the person that is going to buying it from me. What would i need to do in order to unlink it from my Google account so they do not have any of my information?
2. Can i just power it on and do a factory reset and remove my linked Google account? If so how would i do that?
3. How would warranty and returns work for the person that purchased it from me? For example, lets say i sell it to someone and then 5 days later the screen turns yellow or has some problem. Can they send it back to Google and get a replacement, or would they need me to help them with that?
Thanks

Google states that the "link this device to my Google account" checkbox, when selected, means that they will push your username to the device when you set it up during first boot (ONLY username, you still need to put in your password).
I selected this box, but Google didn't push my username when I set up my phone... so... not sure how well that actually works...
Is it possible to fake register the kindle. I'm more than happy to have a rooted kindle and leave anything to do with the amazon app store behind. But certain features like email and calender need me to register on amazon.. any workaround? There seemed to be something you could do with the paperwhite kindles

So far we have not been able to "Fake Register" the Kindle. Amazon has spent a lot of time
making sure the device logs into their service. I think most of the development is being
spent on upgrades, tweaks and future ROM's. I will talk this over with our development
team but so far I have not heard any discussion on this topic. Maybe someone else
will have a better answer.

Sorry, I should have included that with my last response.
Here are the replacements:
1. Root the Kindle http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069117
2. Install Google Play Store http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069859
3. Then using Google Play Store, search for (then Install);

Google Play Magazines > Amazon Newsstand
Google Play Store Apps > Amazon Apps Store
Google Play Music > Amazon Music
Google Play Movies > Amazon Videos
Google Play Games > Amazon Games
Google Play Store > Amazon Shop
Google Play Books > Amazon Audiobooks
Dolphin > Amazon Web (Silk)
I think that covers it. The Amazon Photos can be replaced by a number of applications, just search Google Play for
Photo Software, over 100 applications appear, most are free.

I use Skype, which manages my contacts. Another option is cCloud.
Skype is installed, but not an option to manage my about 150 contacts imported from Outlook.
The point is, I imported all existing contacts to dw contacts, but I'm not able to change anything. When I try to, Amazon calls for a login...
There must be a way around, either with an alternate contacts.app or a fake login.
Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.

Let me get a little more information so I can help you. You want to "Fake Register" the Kindle due to not having
a credit card, is this the case? If yes, I have great news, we Developers have Fake Credit Card Numbers (IT IS LEGAL)
that can be used when you run into a company that forces you to use a credit card. Let's face it, not everyone has a
card! In order to install apps on your Kindle Fire you will need an American credit card. In order to install Free apps at
all you need to have an American credit card setup under your 1-click settings in your Amazon Account. Amazon
will check if the credit card you have in your account is an American Credit card, but not charge it when you add
it to your account or download a free app.
Below is a list of test card numbers used by developers for validating check out processes when building web
stores – and guess what, they can be used with Amazon ☺. I have of course not checked all numbers but I
am sure you will find one you can use on the list.
Expiration Date has to be a valid date in the future (use the mmyy format). Also make sure to use a US address
(just Google for one, but make sure you don’t ship any purchases to this address). These cards will NOT allow
you to make a purchase, they are use for testing purposes ONLY. There is nothing illegal about doing this as
long as you do not use this in an attempt to defraud a company. These numbers are Publicly known and are
posted on several development websites, this is where I found the information quite a long time ago.
Please send us a PM, we will respond with the numbers to be used for development purposes only.
Huh, thanks a lot for that much information, but I think, you got me wrong...
The KFHD hardware itself (and the price payed) is perfect for my needs, but I do not trust very much in Amazon's way to handle my data. Therefor I'd like to use the KFHD as an ordinary Android tablet with those apps I like. This worked so far, the device is rooted, Google Market and Go Launcher are installed and most Amazon pre-installed apps were replaced by others - except the above mentioned contacts.apk. I couldn't find a working replacement and all other email or social network applications try to access these contacts, but unfortunately all attempts are denied “You have to login to your Amazon account first“.
Thus no need to play around with fake credit card numbers or so...
Anyway, thanks for your help (although it was not the final solution for my "problem").

nakedtruthishere,
I was not sure, so I wanted to offer you the same solution we offer several hundreds that use
the Kindle Fire overseas. These users are just plain stuck due to the Amazon's geographic
rules. So when we sell the Kindle Fire to people overseas this is there solution. It is not
playing with credit card numbers, it is a simple solution to a known problem with Amazon
and it is 100% legal. We have a large corporation with several attorneys who are retained
by our firm, we discussed this with them before publishing this information. Now that I
understand your problem, I can drill down the applications. Do you have Google Play
installed on the Kindle Fire? If yes, search for "Contact App" or "Contact Manager"
you will find quite a few to replace the Kindle Address Book.

I tried several - none of them worked well.
Now I have DW contacts installed. I have got some contacts imported to DW with another app. So far, so good.
When I want to add a contact to the list or try to change any of them, the old song plays: Please login to your Amazon account...
When I renamed or deleted the OEM contacts.apk, DW contacts prompts "not supported by your system".
Maybe you guys could have a deeper look into it?

Corporate Addressbook from Vivek M. Lyer
Description
Want to lookup your colleague's information in Exchange but find your Android phone lacking?
Unfortunately the Global Address List (GAL) lookup currently available in Android is limited in functionality. It only looks up email addresses and does not return anything more. This could be frustrating when you are trying to use your phone to look up your colleague's phone number or office location.
This application looks up the GAL contact database, and returns ALL data corresponding to the contact that is available on the server. It also allows you to save the contact information retrieved to your phone for easy access.
This app supports GAL lookups on
- Exchange 2003
- Exchange 2007
- Exchange 2010
- Google Apps for Business/Education
- Zimbra
Thanks to the people assisting with translations:
- jgoldhammer (DE)

This app is NOT ad-supported and is completely free and open-source.
See http://code.google.com/p/corporateaddressbook/
FAQ
- Why does the app need so many permissions?
Once the app looks up a name, there are links next to the phone numbers that allow you to call or send a text to the number. In order to make these links work, the app needs the permissions to make calls and send text messages. Also in order to save the search results to your address book, the app needs to be able to access the accounts on your device and add contacts to the accounts.
- Is this app ad supported or paid?
Nopes, the app is completely free (both like beer and speech). There are no ads, and the source code is available on Google Code (http://code.google.com/p/corporateaddressbook/).
- Why are you asking for my credentials? Are you trying to steal my identity
Unfortunately there is no way to access your account information that is configured on your device. The information you enter in the app stays on the device. Please feel free to audit the code if you are still worried.
- This doesn't work, how can I report an issue?
Please feel free to email me, or report an issue at http://code.google.com/p/corporateaddressbook/issues/list
- Why is the app not available in my language?
The developers are, unfortunately, not versed in several languages - but you can help! Please join the translatioon effort at http://crowdin.net/project/corporate-addressbook/.
I have tried both address books and found the first one Smartr Contacts to be the best, although they are both solid products - try them both, they are free.
