Amazon instant video via app now available - Nook HD, HD+ General

You need both:
1) The new amazon store app non-tablet (com.amazon.mShop.android-5.0.0.apk)
2) The new instant video app requires the store app (com.amazon.avod.thirdpartyclient-1.0.apk)
2a) Download links are here:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/0...-to-entire-digital-catalog-instant-video-app/
2b) Looks like they can also be installed via amazon app store if you want to go that route.
And then finally:
3) If using 2a, the apps must be sideloaded onto the nook hd+ - amazon store tablet app doesn't appear to be updated with it as of right now so are not listed on the playstore for the nook. Don't know if its the same for the instant video app as it is for the store app.

What you need to know:
It does work or in other words videos can be watched (joyfully too) from beginning to end despite below issues.
This is video direct from an app with no flash needed.
There seems to be crashes happening on cm11 + nook hd+ while the app activity or a service perhaps is running in the background & upon reboot. Don't know anything else about that at the moment. Latest Update: Crashes occur now and then or too much based on what your doing.
Videos may be choppy at times. In general, possibly choppy only during the initial buffer when a video starts playing.
Video settings -> data quality / wifi only appear to have no effect on video quality except probably over data plan. Wifi must be automatic.
Instant video player can have an error during start of app about instant video not available. Fixed by force stopping app.
Indications are that it won't work on the rooted BN official rom as that appears to be too old - and its not like I'm going to try.
Instant video can be played from either app (not to be confused with both apps required to be installed).
That's about all there is to it right now.

get $5 in amazon coins for watching any movie or tv show from the instant video app
- Deal works till October 16, 2014 at 11:59 PM PST
- Apparently US only
- Other detail on what to do in following link including how they want it installed.
Addition: Well it appears I have not received any coins for deviating from their exact instructions or because I had already played video from the app before. Don't know which.

No More jetVD-YouTube Downloader :mad:

Looks like they took jetVD off the Android Market. I just installed a new rom and didn't backup that app. If anybody has the latest v0.9.8 apk can you please please pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaaase upload.
There are more places to look for app's than just the Market. I'll see if I can find something.
Not sure what version it is, or if it is infected in any way shape or form, but here is a working download:
http://www.4shared.com/file/vbUs9Glk/jetVD.html
Edit: version 0.9.4.
works okay for me
Some ROMS have problems with missing apps from the market. It has to do with the build.prop file. One way to get these apps is to use appbrain and fast web installer to send it to your phone. The app still exists: http://www.appbrain.com/search?q=jetvd
No apps found for "jetvd"
I am getting irritated by Google removing the apps that grab youtube videos.
Anyone has the latest version of apk and would you share it please?
EDIT: I finally managed to grab it from the 4shared link, tried like 10 times and it finally worked. Although it isn't the latest version (cannot choose where to save the videos).
Download Best tube off the market is free and its a youtube downloader and I have found every app that I've looked for....
Aren't there plenty of other apps that do the same thing?

Thanks for the app. But unfortunately the app will still work but the videos that are linked to YouTube is not available. Im Assuming that the jetvd team is undergoing a major update on the next version due to the script changes done in YouTube this past new years.

interesting. they seem to be developing even though they were yanked off of the market. however i cant read any of the links off of their twitter feed. on the computer or the phone.
version 0.9.13 is not working but the version attached to the first post is working fine
Version 1.0.1 will be out soon. I saw the release notes on their site. It will feature a new UI. We can view video comments and the option to view related videos as well as videos upload by the user.
I have 0.9.7 on my phone, from the Market, back when it was still there and it works 100% still.
1.0.1 is on the market!!
Sorry if this is late and after the fact...
JetVD is available on the market, but the lite version on the market will not allow you to download videos and save them. People in the comments section have advised to go to their website at jetvd.com and download it straight from there (using your mobile device). The Full version is free there, and will allow you to save your videos.
Is there a new jetvd or any other app that converts youtube videos to mp3?
I've been using TubeMate for a year or so, but it's not on the Market. Get it for free at m.tubemate.net.

[Q] Problem with Youtube with the new update

Google just released the new update for Youtube app in Android Market.
After I updated the app on my Nook Color, running on CM 7 RC, I found that Youtube app failed to load any clip at all.
Does anyone have this problem? I also have Nexus 1 which is updated as well but doesn't have such a problem.
Any ideas? Is it possible to downgrade Youtube by uninstalling it?
** My Nexus 1 recently has a new Market app but my NC is yet not upgraded. Is it going to be a big matter for a rooted NC?

Hmmm. I just realized that Google AD, which plays right before the clip, is loaded and played. However, the clip I touched in is having a problem: "There was a problem while playing. Touch to Retry."
In the moment the HQ button appears, unchecked it. Videos will play in low quality fine. Waiting on a fix.

Reading the rating comments for the Youtube app in the market, it appears that this problem isn't limited to the NC and is occuring on several other platforms also.
I have only been able to get 1 video to play correctly. While watching my router's status lights, I can see that the videos are downloading but all I get is the spinny arrow or the "Touch to retry" error.
I just noticed when I went to the market website that Youtube is now listed as not compatible. Adobe flash as well. Funny when you consider they are both part of the stock setup. It's pretty clear Google is blocking apps not so much based on the device but whether it is rooted or not. Question is, all rooted devices or only those with CM7 on them?

Another thing I noticed with the Youtube update is the restriction of certain videos from being played on mobile devices. Luckily, I had a backup of a pre-screwy Youtube and market update sd image and things are running fine again.
It really makes me wonder what is going on behind the scenes at google to cause them do all of this.
Yeah I'm having the same problem. Reverted to a backup and it's working again. This is on the latest release candidate.

It's working fine for me. I even played a HQ vid with on problem. I will say that when I clicked on one of the front page videos it just sat and spun its wheels but when I searched for something it played without any delay.
What version of CM7 is everyone using?
I am running 7.0.3 and was having problems with the updated youtube.
7.1.0-RC1 here.
yeah, youtube 2.2.16 will not work on my nook, but works fine on my htc aria. not sure why
nook: cm7 n155 / aria: cm7 n162
Same here. Running cm7 rc1 off of sd card. Some videos ran fine others didn't. Revered to old version on backup.

Nightly 151 off sd card here. Everything working fine with updated youtube. Every vid I tried played ok.
Same problem here with YouTube 2.2.16 not playing High Quality (HQ) videos on the Nook Color running CM7. Those of you who say it's not playing anything, your YouTube app may default to HQ video. As soon as the video downloading spinning circle appears on the screen, tap the screen in landscape mode to see the toggle switch to turn HQ off for that video. The low quality video should load up after you turn off HQ.
Anyway, last night I remembered that in the early days of rooting the NC we had the same problem with HQ video in the YouTube app. I tried the fix for that old problem last night and it worked on 2.2.16. All I did was sign out of my YouTube account, force stopped the app, cleared cache and data, and rebooted the NC. After reboot open the YouTube app, accept the TOS, and it should work. When everyone had this problem earlier this year, it would sometimes come back and we'd do the routine again to make it go away. I don't know what eventually solved the problem last time (an update fixed it?), but maybe the same behind-the-scenes permanent fix will solve the problem with 2.2.16.

Tried this - some videos are playing now in HQ but not others. Strange. For example I selected one artist and two of her videos would play but two wouldn't. After rollback to 2.1.6 they all play.
When I have a situation like this where the updated version of an app works much worse than the prior (Skype, Okcupid notably), I roll back and then use Titanium to force-detach it from the Market.
Even if there wasn't a problem playing videos with the new update, I still would roll back to the previous version.
I find it irritating as hell that this new version of the Youtube player has incorporated the "do not play on mobile devices" block on some videos. I did not like this "feature" on the Youtube Ipodtouch app and never could figure out the reasoning behind it.

Hulu on Kindle Fire

I wanted Hulu on my kindle fire without paying for hulu plus so I found a hacked apk from the xoom and thought I would share the wealth. This apk makes it so that while browsing your Kindle looks like a windows computer and will allow access to flash apps that normally are only available to a PC. Works like a charm! Hulu looks really good and no sync issues. I haven't tried youtube yet, but I assume it works the same. I searched hacked flash apk in google and clicked a link to the xoom forums. I loaded the apk on my kindle and installed it.
link? i don't have issues with youtube, just hulu.
nvm, hulu works with dolphin browser, just flash didn't work with the firefox browser.
How did you get Hulu and Dolphin browser to work? I have a rooted device, installed Dolphin Browser form android market. Still didn't work.

When you set up dolphin browser for the first time it gives you an option to run your browser as android, load, mobile, or desktop. Select desktop and you should be good to go. You can also change this from the settings menu in dolphin after you installed it. I would post slink but since I'm new to xda I can't post links until I have 10 posts. I'm close now...haha. ill post a link as soon as I can. Sorry.
Well, Kindle Fire play Youtube videos fine, I have had no problem especially if you side load the youtube app, though I also got a free YouTube download from aneesoft to download videos, but to be frankly, the kindle play great and no need to do other works.
Hmm, Im curious how did you to watch Hulu plus smoothly on it??

Well, Hulu page loaded fine for me but I didn't try to play a video until now and I get the "platform not supported" when I try to play a video, so I guess it doesn't work after all.
On CM9 I can get the desktop version to load in chrome without android warning, but the video doesn't play. I installed flash, so thats not the problem. Wonder if its the hardware excel thats causing probs.
YouTube website works fine...
i just went to Hulu web site and KF is listed under supported devices..
I love these posts from new members that claim some app or site works on this device or that device, yet they don't post the link. Then they disappear from the thread.
I'm going to go start a new thread now, about how I found a hacked Netflix app that lets you watch anything without paying. Just don't hold your breath for a link.
It's the licensing
The way I understand it Hulu has license conflicts with some shows that preclude streaming them to a mobile device be it through their app or to an android or IOS based browser.
Those shows appear as "web only" in the Hulu+ favorites listing in the app.
True. Even on a ROKU, we get that message. The work around we use is Playon on our desktop computer. Hulu is accessed by the PC, so everything plays, then Playon shows up on the ROKU and streams Hulu (the regular free version of Hulu).
There is also a Playon app for Android, so you can watch Hulu on the Fire or any Android device. But no direct access to Hulu from KF afaik.

Ok, this I don't think will work on cm9, it may you'll have to try and report if it does. They were having an issue with flash in browser. So on miui, cm7, or maybe even rooted stock kindle. Here is the link
http://www.xoomforums.com/forum/motorola-xoom-development/9658-flash-latest-hulu-hacked-flash.html
1. Uninstall your current flash
2. Reboot
3. go to the link and in the first post and download the hulified v. 11.1... apk and install it.
4. Get dolphin browser and you should be good to go.
I forgot the issue about uninstalling and then doing a fresh install. There may also arise the issue of the flash apk being a system app, in that case you will need to use titanium backup to remove it before rebooting and installing the hacked apk.
Good luck guys!

PlayOn is $5 a month, but if you pay a full year in advance ($40), it works out to something like $3.30 a month. Cheaper than Hulu Plus.
Plus, you get several other "channels". Of course, your computer has to be running while your streaming. I'm just mentioning it as another option.

I saw that WWE Network App came out for the Amazon Fire TV, has anyone attempted to sideload that apk to the ouya?
Looks like its tied to the amazon app store app, it wont launch unless you have the amazon app store installed.

Modified the apk to work on other android devices. i belive it only works on 4.2 and above (Sorry Ouya stock people)
*Updated with 1.0.1 Version*

Hope this isnt against any forum rules. the application is free and wont work unless the person pays for WWE Network Subscription. Which i DO

[Q] Amazon Prime on Nexus Player

Ok... so I've got the old Amazon App Store APK file - the good one with the built in app store. I side loaded to my Nexus Player and launched it.
Problem is - I couldn't log into my account. I would get alternately "Provide a valid email" "Network unavailable" and just a rotating wheel of doom.
When I ran it and skipped log-in the app ran just fine.
I'm trying to access my Amazon Prime account so I can play video (Amazon Prime is a lot like Netflix but has some content Netflix doesn't have).
Any idea as to what I could be doing wrong (no it's not my password or email). Is there any other way to access Amazon Prime Video on the Nexus Player? Has anybody got it working?
Many thanks in advance for your help.
Probably not compatible with 5.0. Try the newest apk although Im sure Amazon will probably block this on the NP as they want you to purchase a fire device.

I tried the newest apk (Amazon 5.2.2, Instant Video 1.0) and it crashes at when you try to start playing a video. It does not look like a concious attempt to block it from working, though I doubt they will work to explicitly support the Nexus Player. I'd love to get this working on the NP if possible though.

Its not a 5.0 thing as it runs on the Nexus 9
Same experience here....the amazon app and the instant video supplement apk does install and works ok if you use a mouse. But it crashes on playing a video.
Fire TV has an Instant Video app. I don't have one, but if anyone here does, maybe it is possible to extract the Instant Video app (and other apk's that it may depend on) off the Fire TV and install it on Nexus Player? I assume that app is different than the phone app and has a leanback interface and works well with remotes.

I can confirm it works on lollirock. To navigate you need a mouse. It does not show up on the lean back launcher though.

I can also confirm that all amazon apps that I've tried are working perfectly. Music, InstantVideo, store all up and working!

the pressure for me to redo my Nexus Player with LolliRock mounts ....
Hello,
You can screen cast anything to the player if you have a rooted device with 5.x. Just install this and enable, i watched a full movie from Amazon Prime without any issues. http://forum.xda-developers.com/har...experimental-enable-mirroring-device-t2812193

Has anyone found a way to get this to work yet?
Like the post above. Amazon plug-in for Kodi(xbmc)
Amazon instant video for android is crap to begin with compare to iOS version. Anyway, I've tested it out using Kodi with Amazon instant video plugin. Works like a charm with a much easier UI to navigate through.

Yes, I live in the US. I followed this tutorial to get it work. I have that issue with some tv shows, not all.
I followed this tutorial by the way https://superrepo.org/get-started/ . Using super repo
