I found a bit of info on XDA but nothing worked that I've tried. I am getting a message on Google Playstore "Your device is not compatible" so I tried the apk route using apkmirror & 2 other similar tools but got a message saying parsing error.
Can anyone recommend something that might work for me? Most of the info I found on XDA was from very old posts (2016)
Thanks in advance for any help. By the way, the app I am trying to get on either Google Play or App Store (which Google Play installed fine using XDA's Fire Toolbox latest version). Also, the app is the blueletter bible which installs fine (app from Playstore) on my Fire 7" which I think is from 2019.

Okay, so I rooted my kindle fire with no problem and I got "Android Market" installed but it is an older version that looks kind of funny and it is not letting me install any of my apps (or any apps from the store). I want the newest one because I have two different Google Accounts with different purchased apps on them. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!
Where did you download the Android Market?
Check what version your Android Market is:
1. Go to Settings-->Applications-->Third Party Applications
2. Scroll down and select "Market"
The version should be 3.3.11

Also note that there seems to be a filter on the market that doesn't allow all applications to be downloaded on the Fire
You can sideload those apps though, as long as they are compatible with the Kindle Fire

Vending.apk is the problem. All the tutorials had that as the app to use. For me, it was never starting any downloads and yes it was the old market version.
Try com.amarket.apk from the gapps.zip, that worked for me first try.
Use the vending.apk on this post. It is the one that got market fully functional for me.

How did you install?

This is a good choice. I was using it for a bit on my HTC flyer before I rooted and installed on my Fire.

Thanks for the help. Works Great
Hello there,
I just got the Kindle Fire and although I do really like it, I have some problems with it. I got it for my dad as a tablet to surf the web with and read books from Amazon and purchase these books on the official Amazon store too but I have some problems with that.
Firstly, I live in Austria and there is no Amazon App-Market support here nor is there a Kindle Store App. There might be one in the Android Market, which I have not tried , but this is would be crucial, so that he can easily purchase books from the device itself without having to use a computer.
Another thing that's bothered me is that it seems there is no way to bypass the Amazon Appstore restrictions and get GApps while maintaining the original ROM or Interface. Personally, I think that the Carousel Interface is very intuitive and nice , however I hate that you cannot change the language to German, because my dad does not speak English and that if you decide to get another ROM, there is no way to get this Kindle Carousel Interface (that I know of atleast).
So I'm asking you: is there a modified version of the ROM that is currently on the Kindle Fire, maybe with multilanguage support and support for Android Market and if there is not, which custom ROM would you recommend and is there a Kindle App for Android that allows you to access the Store?
I don't care about the video service, I don't really need it nor does my dad but I would really need to have the Kindle book-store support.
If you guys could help me out, I'd be very grateful.

I have a stock Rom that is rooted with multi-language keyboards. I use otaroot keeper to unroot and have full access to the amazon video. I also have all gapps installed since it is rooted. You have install each ime keyboard seperately. I have posted in a thread how I got it to work. All rooting info is available on the forums.

you don't need an other rom - read this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1382360
mine is nearly complete in german with the stock rom and have the german book & mp3 store ...
Thanks for the help guys, I was just wondering whether some of you knew if the Kindle Store that is available in the Android Market works with the Fire. Also, if I root the Fire , can I just install the regular Market and then get the Apps?
you can install android market and use this one for apps
little hint: never update the kindle app - your original app on the kf will not work anymore ...
if you change the region as described in the link you get redirected to the german kindle book store
just read it and do exactly as described

Wrong forum. Repost here:

Download the Amazon Fire Toolkit. It should do everything for you.

Hi guys, i need a little help.
For a few days (since when exactly, I don't know) I can no longer open my play store and the "Google" app (yes, I know -.- ') can no longer be opened. After a "click", it pulls for a millisecond so that it is also opened. You can see a "shadow", the animation, very briefly. Prevent the installation from running without problems ... but now I don't know what to do next ... all apps from the store can still be used. Do i need a new apk? Was there an update? I have no idea ... Do you have a good tip or an idea? fireOs 7.3.1.8
Thanks and best regards

Fire OS 7.3.1.8 is running Android 9.0 Pie. You must install the appropriate versions of Google Services Framework and Google Account Manager using Fire Toolbox.
