You shouldn't have to pay for it. There are plenty of links to the .apk for free download. Just search around.
If you've bought it for your phone. Just copy the apk and sideload it onto your fire. Works just fine.

Why not support the devs? Don't encourage piracy.
Not worth the risk when anyone can modify apps to take your steal information off your phone.

I got the link from a dev. It was included in a guide on an unnamed dev site. I'll donate when I can.

So I found a new apk that is being used in the augen gentouch android tablet and other android tablets from china as a market substitute (they can't use the market because of licensing reasons). If you are having trouble getting your apk on the market or just don't want to pay to put your apk up or your just sick of google trying to say their open source but they got certain restrictions on the market this is for you. It's still kind of small but its getting there (or it'll be crushed by google)
is this spam of some sort? that link had NOTHING to do with an app marketplace.

Fixed that for ya.
There are some apks on that site. Is use it if it had more and was safe.
So i just got a notice that the link I put up there was spam. The link that I put up was to the augen gentouch (the android tablet sold at kmarts) support site. There they offer the app market which is the tablet alternative of the android market. They have to use that because they don't have permission to use the android market. Anyways since the app market doesn't make you pay 25 dollars to sign up or reject apks I thought this would be a good idea to help folks who haven't been able to get there app on the market get it out there. Anyways that being said it's over
Be careful with this. The first mms and apk android viruses are out and would easily be hidden in one of the apks there.

that's naughty - from what I heard amazon kind of foot the bill for the free apps (the dev's get their cut still) so ripping the apk off, while it will also have some 'Market validation' checker in it still, would basically be like piracy, cause if you wanted to play it you'd need to crack that too...

no idea how then i downloaded it being in uk
$3.99 here, so it is over I guess. Pity, Swiftkey is awesome. I can't get over for not buying it for 1.99 last week.
Google has your answer
My amazon app store does not work properly. For instance, when i search for root explorer on the amazon app store on my fire, nothing shows up. But when I go to amazon.com, root explorer is supposedly available for purchase, did anyone else have this issue?
thanks.
Root Explorer was removed from the stock Kindle Fire appstore weeks ago.
why is it still available for purchase online then?

Meant to quote you, not thank you. They f-ed up or are lazy. Also, you can get it on the android market.

Anyone else? Why isn't it compatible?

Because Caribou is better??
A lot of developers haven't updated their apps to work with 4.2 yet. Might be the issue in your case.

No, but the app force closes upon opening for me. So it doesn't work.

Same here, I also get FC.
In the meantime, I will use the Square app for Starbucks (if I don't have my card hanging around). I just won't get any benefits on my member card.

Caribou's stock is $11, Starbucks stock is $50.
'Nuff said.
Yeah it's a 4.2 Issue
Same. It seems like a JB 4.2 issue. Other people in the app comments have noticed it too.

Because stock price without regards to volume means absolutely everything. You must be a Starbucks customer, as you certainly have the intellect of one.
Why do people pay so much for a cup of garbage. I can get a can of coffee for the same price as you pay for two cups.

I just installed Cyanogen Mod 10, which is only 4.1.2, and I can't reinstall the app either.
I don't think it's just a 4.2 issue, as people keep posting. Any other ideas?
Like the brand or not, some of us like the app. Help would be appreciated.
Starbucks doesn't work on 4.2 yet.

Understood...
And, as I just stated before you, I am not ON 4.2 yet, and I am having the same issue.
***UPDATE***
Okay, so, I am still on CM 10 (STILL Android 4.1.2)
I side-loaded the Starbucks APK 2.2.3 (the newest, as of this posting) and it seems to work fine.
HOWEVER, the Play Store shows that it is installed, but still gives me a warning that the app is not compatible with my phone. Doesn't show the normal buttons for Uninstalling or Opening, so I'm assuming it won't Update as normal, either.
Side note: all other apps have seemed to work perfectly on my copy of this build, including Groupon and a side-load of Google Wallet. Not sure what the deal is.

I downloaded it onto my Kindle, then backed it up with ES File Explorer and moved the file to my phone with Dropbox.
I don't have enough posts under my belt to post links yet...try this, omit the obvious.
OR, a mod is more than welcome to edit this and/or post the link themselves, after checking it's valid?

I'm more concerned with the fact Starbucks has an app. What use it could be? I must investigate this conundrum.

Basically, it's a useful app for anyone who's a regular and uses the reloadable rewards card. That's all.

Just to add on to this: using the re loadable card allows for free refills on coffee and iced coffee as long as you're there. Great for when you're doing homework; just buy a small and get unlimited.
So when the hell is Starbucks going to update their app?!?
Thank you for posting the .APK buddy.. it works just fine on 4.1 but it crashes on 4.2 i really hope starbucks updates its app soon, as i use it a lot
Thanks,

Ok thank you very much! I guess it is better to move this post instead of creating a new one. But I cannot do it myself I guess. I will ask an admin.
Thank you!
Dude, this is simply amazing! Than you very much for your work. Never been easier for me to sideload the Ares Wizard. Are there any further plans to integrate other builds to, so that we can use this tool as a central source to sideload builds?
As stated above this. Can you allow us to automate installing our own build of choice?
It looks like your app will install just the wizard for the build and you have to finish the job on the device?
I have my own build that I tweak very often and use across many devices so this would be perfect if it installed my whole build automatically. Kind of like how restore works in adblink.
Will you be sharing your source for your program in the future?
Thanks for this cool app!

Nope. But you extract in from another device that has the Amazon app store installed and has successfully downloaded/installed the apps in question. There are various tools to accomplish this; many can be obtained from third party sites and sideloaded to the containing the Amazon app store. Also note the device holding the Amazon store does not have to be running FireOS as Amazon Underground will install/run on most android based devices.

ES File Explorer is banned from Amazon App Store, but you can use the FireTuner method to install Apps, Kodi and more. Is there an alternative File Explorer for Amazon TV devices?
Just added a Backup and Restore feature!
