Amazon app Store Stealing updates? - General Questions and Answers

I recently received update notifications from the amazon app store for apps I installed through the market.
Also the app updates are not mirrored on the market.
------edit-------
These "updates" send up the replacement notification during install

Amazon app store

Has anyone seen this yet? I'm unsure why, if I could us it US customers only, I'd need an app store with the identical apps as the market, had the xda app there. Why has Amazon made an android app store???

Alright I installed the new market. It won't install any bought apps. Unrooted phone. Actually it wouldn't install paid app in old market. I have the same gmail account I had with my captivate. Any ideas?

Connect Amazon purchased apps to the Android market?

is there a way to connect Amazon purchased apps to the Android market? I bought them at a good price, some were free, but I like the Android Market better.

The newer version of titanium backup let's you force an app to be linked to the market. Worked on my phone.

You may be able to force paid apps from amazon to be recognized in google market but you will not be able to use the market to update the paid amazon apps. Just not going to happen without paying for them again in the market.

The Amazon market is to quirky for me, I have had the same updates pushed at me 4 times. Good prices, but hard to deal with.

Impossible. Paid apps are linked to your account through Google's server, not on your phone. Using titanium just gives your app a market link. It changes nothing on Google's server. If you got paid apps to update then you paid for them a second time through the Market.

Dude I know it sounds impossible but apps I never downloaded from Google, ONLY ON AMAZON, are now showing as downloaded and update through Google. Call bs all you want, but it happened.

Not only sounds impossible but is impossible. And I didn't say free apps. I said paid apps.
Purchases are connected to your google account. Even if you link Amazon app to market, market shows the price when you try to update the app through it.

Kindle app

My cousin got me a Galaxy S3 from middle east. The play store doesn't allow me to install kindle app due to some blizzard restrictions. Links to updated kindle apk will be appreciated. Thanks.

Just to confirm, you are going through the samsung app store right? The one on Google play is considered a different version.
You need to go to the Samsung App Store to update some apps that are pre-installed. There's a icon for it in your app drawer. You'll need to create an account. I have both versions and the Samsung store seems to lag a little behind the Play Store as far as updates. Both versions are on 1.4.
That did it. Thanks
