I deleted it. The file was huge .96 gb. I don't play games from app store, haven't downloaded a single game, but may download ppsspp. Would it affect that?

Make sure you're on wifi. It won't download otherwise.

Plus Amazon Appstore just seems to be slow downloading in general.

Can be downloaded over 4G instead of just wifi. I <3 amazon app store, free app per day has to be the best idea ever.

Thanks nick for this heads up.
Also, I downloaded this with WiFi but now it won't install. I still have ~130MB free on my phone and once it's installed I'll move it to my SD but it's just not installing.
What should I do?
UPDATE: Fixed my issue. Had to re-download and it finally installed
After downloading I just moved the App to the SD card. Also downloaded fine over 4G as well. I think I have just been getting every app of the day from there even if it sucks lately. Been some really nice free apps lately though.
Yeah, Pacman today...from Namco even. Pretty sweet. I used to be totally against more than one app store but Amazon has figured out a way to get me to actually use it even though I may not agree with it.
Not sure if this is also happening to you guys n gals but since I moved this game to the sd card, it stopped working. Once I load the game, then a hourglass pops up and then closes n loads back to the main desktop. Going to try n move the game back to the phones internal and see if the same thing happens...

I moved and played mine straight to the sd card that came default with the phone no problem. Maybe it' just your card?

[Q] XPlay lagging

i dont know why, before its not like that, but now when im playing game it lag games like asphalt6 , dungeon hunter2, even small games like tatoo tycoon o.o
i tried cleaner, reboot, free ram is 240+Mb , but ................
any suggestions?
Do you use a live wallpaper? They sometimes couse bad performence.
idonthave,im rooted and delete bloatware so i dont have live wp
If you have Root you can download Script manager + zeppelinrox Supercharger Version 9 update 3.It has the option called "NitroLag-Flush"
Overcooking to 1.3ghz will also help performance
Are you using a class 10 sd card or a poor quality card?
Sent from my R800i using xda premium
i think its not poor card, cuz its the stock card from SE. o.o

did the lag come before or after removing the bloatware?
if it was after maybe you removed something you shouldnt have

Nope,im not laggin before even I have delete bloatwre, jst now,it suck when u wrecked at asphalt lol

I think he meens a reflash of 2.3.2, then root, then OTA to newest 2.3.3 and then remove bloat and restore your apps

Isn't the card you get packaged with the phone only a class 2? Though it may depend on the vendor...
But before I dont lag, so mybe its not with the sd .

I experienced a lot of lag from gameloft games, like backstab, eternal legacy, and on some mission in rainbow 6 too..
is it time for me already to overclock my phone
I've been noticing lag happening on my phone as well and it is not rooted or unlocked and only a couple months old. When i first got it I would get an occasional slowdown, but nowadays I notice it more and more (only on gameloft games but thats just because they are all I am playing right now). PSX games run perfect. I'm running a 16GB Class 2 card I procured from my old Motorola Droid with about 9gb free, as well as 150 mb free space on the phone. I am thinking it could be the card, so I have a Sandisk 32GB Class 4 on order. I feel like its possible a Class 2 card is not enough for this thing. Either that or I have some other underlying issue, I will say the device is less snappy than when it was new (and no I don't use task killers).
That seems odd... maybe you downloaded an app that had a virus on it or something? Or maybe you just downloaded an app that went wrong...

The great thing about it is that I can install all my purchased games now and not have to worry about "play, uninstall, reinstall new game, uninstall".

Is there any way to check if this file is original and not modified? I wouldn't like to make any purchase with possibly altered file (or maybe google included some security for such a case?).
Thank you, looks much better.

It's signed by Google, so It's unmodified (I guess?)

Same here, new Play-store is dummed down too much for my taste. The decrease of font-size is annoying too.

Wait for the update in your phone...
You know that by simpling installing a ROM in your phone it could have any .apk modified to steal your info... rite? Anyway, no one would do that... I hope...

The dumbest thing about it is placing the "update" and "uninstall" buttons so ultra-close together and making them so super-small. What happened to Google's UI common sense?
Now, every time you update an app, I have to be careful not to accidentally push "uninstall" and I don't even have fat fingers!

Nope, it seems to work fine for me on my SGS3

It's kind of stuttery/laggy here. So is gmail list scrolling, so is YouTube app.
Seems like scrolling in lists does not work well on my phone. Web browsing for instance, is much smoother.
When installing an app with Play Store, it can actuallly be smoother than unloaded. I'm running MC3 fw, but the problem has always been present. Did a factory reset a few days ago, but it did not help.
Old versyon is better i think
