You won't run into any problems. If the Google Play store wants to update one of your Amazon apps... do it! It gets updates weeks ahead of Amazon and is generally the better store. It'll also allow all your newly converted Google apps (aka update via Play) to update automatically... something Amazon lacks. Just don't allow the Amazon store to update via Play. The Play version is slower...

ah ok. i have disabled any automatic updates through amazon app store. amazon still wants to update netflix and skype. may remove the amazon stuff. only thing i will miss is the free daily app.
also noticed that go store wants to update my tvchatup app and the rootcheckbasic app..

You could just keep both. I use mostly the Play store with Amazon being used for the occasional free daily app. As I mentioned before, it's generally best to let your apps update through Google Play.

ok thanks, will do. keep turning amazon app updates and use play

Moving/sharing appear between phone and xoom

I have several paid apps which I'd like to xfer to my xoom. Is this possible? I don't have the xoom yet but am going to buy the wifi version.

If they are paid, im prettyy sure when you log into your google account, they will load right up.
Thus preventing you having to pay for the same app twice
All your apps on on your Google account on your phone will install to your xoom was long as its compatible with the xoom. I have even bought apps on my phone then used the web based market to install them to my xoom. You only buy the app once

Your apps are tied to the Google account, not the device.

Has anyone tried it on their tf 101?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA Premium HD app
I installed it on my Razr MAXX. Other than the addition of "Magazines and TV", I didn't see any difference. I uninstalled it because I have no interest in these additions. ..But it did work fine. You can try it on the TF. It's easy to uninstall the update if there's any issues.
I have it installed on my stock ICS TF101. I downloaded it from another XDA thread, I believe for the Amaze 4G. It is running fine with no problems. I've already canceled a magazine subscription from the nook store and started getting it though play magazines. It was almost 40% cheaper through the play store. Loving it so far.
I just noticed that sometime in the last 48 hours, the new Play Store was pushed to my TF. It is now running 3.7.13.
hey guys.
do you know if this update is available in play store or i need to track it here at xda? i do not have the transformer with me and i was currious.
thanks

Your Play Store should have updated itself my now. It's been pushed to all my devices. If not, you can find it on sites such has "Droid-Life".
Yea, I'm using it. I like the new magazine section. You should have no problem with it. Just find it and upgrade.

I just realized that the new store has added some pretty subtle improvements like auto-complete to the search box (it'll pop up with actual apps as you type, as opposed to just keywords - allowing you to bypass the search results screen) and full screen pictures of icons when you click on them.

Play store

How come the google play app does not show my paid for apps anymore? i used to be able to click my apps inside the play store app, and it would show everything i have currently downloaded and underneath it would show a list of apps i have paid for. Why doesnt that show anymore? i hate having to look for every single app ive paid for. Is it hidden or did they take this away??
Its been like this for 4-5 months now. Yeah its annoying. Maybe there will be an update to bring it back in the near future.

Go to your app drawer, menu, manage apps, all apps, Google play and clear data.

That's because Google Play is view only at the moment. Attempting to download is not advised, yet.

I think most users are aware that this forum is for the HD2012,
Currently there is no dedicated form form for 2013 version so this one is the closest.

@LE: Is there any solution to get the Google Play Store working on the KFHD7 11.3.1.0 you know of?
Or will I just have to wait it out? Thanks and greetings!

New Google Play Store crashing on Books category

Has anyone else experienced this with the new Play Store. There books category is causing the app to crash every time I try to access it. If I delete the update it works with the old store.
