Ive done a lot of searching here and elsewhere on the interubes and haven't found much. Has anyone had any success running Spotify on the Kindle Fire? Ive tried installing the apk with no results. How about you?

interubes?
Ive downloaded the Apk from 2 different sources and each time when I attempt to open it I get an error message. "There was a problem when attempting to parse this package." Help, please?

That often means the file is corrupt, spotify works fine here

Where can I get a non.corrupt apk? I tried a download thru the browser and an email of my backup apk from my android phone.

Spotify doesn’t work perfectly, sadly. Usable with tweaks.

I just received my Kindle Fire for Christmas and was able to load spotify, but not via the Amazon App Store. I had to change the Fire device setting to allow it to install apps from unknown sources, then went to Spotify.com to download the app. Once I did that, it installed and I was able to long into my account and play my Music. At first after I downloaded the app, I couldn't figure out how to find the downloaded file, so I want to the app store and downloaded a file explorer app. Once I had that, I clicked on sd card folder I found, and then downloads folder. Someone with more knowledge probably knows an easier way, but I am just beginning to explore the device and what it can do and that is how I solved it.

Could you send a link to the page on the spotify website where you downloaded the app? I searched all over and it kept telling me to open up Aneroid Market. Ty.

Nevermind. I found it. Definitely not perfect but I would hope they are working on a KF version. Thanks for the help everyone.

You can search it on TorrApk.
IS there any way to get Google Play on an unrooted Kindle Fire?
I don't want to flash a ROM.
I'm just looking for a way to download it on my KF.

No, not unrooted. But you do not need to install a ROM to get Google Play. You just need to root it.

Fixed
The Kindle app keeps force closing on me. I am running cm 11 with the most recent nightly. The app hasn't been working for a few days. I tried wiping cache and did a full wipe and reinstalled cm. I tried clearing app data and opening app with privacy guard on and off. Anyone else having problems or have a solution? The app works on cm 11 on my n4 us 4.

Starting for me last night with an update to the app...if you go to the Play Store and check out the reviews..there are few others out there also having the same issue....
UPDATE: I uninstalled the updated Kindle App...located the previous versions APK and it works. They obviously f'd it up...
Its a bug in the app not allowing it to run in Kitkat
Any updates on this getting fixed? The Amazon Appstore is doing the same thing for me now too.

Change your device id to a Nexus 7, and the apps work. Amazon clearly will not allow a kindle fire to run with full Android. Check out twa_priv's cm11 rom thread for a link to a zip file that changes the kindle id. Run it in twrp. It is the 3 or 4 post.

How can I fix this. I've tried clearing data, reinstalling disabling developer options, and nothing works. What can I do? I'd like to read my Python Programming Book...

The problem is the Kindle App crashes. Would their appstore fix it? If you have a link private message it to me.

That's why you need to go to the link and install the last official Amazon app build. There are three apks there. Appstore, Kindle apk and Amazon MP3 apk.
There is an issue for some with the newer Amazon apks. Until it gets sorted, use the Apk's at the link.

Just use kindle fire first aid, put the device in fastboot mode first, easy way of doing that is booting into twrp and hitting reboot>bootloader. From there kffa will restore the system to stock amazon rooted. Not sure if it restored stock recovery though.

OK that is probably a driver issue, check the device manager for a device with a yellow triangle next to it and try updating its drivers to the ones in my signature. I can't stand using my kindle with windows, seems every time I go between cm, recovery, and fastboot I have to uninstall the device and let it reinstall it again.

you don't need to delete it. only if you don't want it to update. you can go to amazon and follow the directions for a manual update.

No, you don't want to do that. Those are only for the first flash as indicated in the OP.

Once you have flashed TWRP you can only return to stock using fastboot. Whether you use something like a system restore tool or just push the images in fastboot you still need to start with a fastboot cord.
1. Fastboot cord.
2. download system restore tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951254
3. You also need to download the SDK package and set paths in your environment for fastboot.exe and adb.exe. Here is a video tutorial to assist you with that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaNM-lt_aHw
ok you say it dont work but thats exactlly what i did and mine did just what i said i flashed hashcodes stock rom then let it update. the update took my root and recovery away. had no problems. but every kindle reacts differently to different things so i dont know what to say.

also i think i used the 7.3.0 stock flashable rom. Also you if you can find the orignal thread for disabling ota updates there should be a script to enable the ota updates . you can try that. otherwise you are gonna have to use the fastboot cable and restore tool like linear equation said.
