had this too.
I have changed DPI (LCD_Density to 439) and I use Gravitybox to reduce the height of the navigation bar.
reset both back to default and still can't get the app to install

Install Amazon App Store
I had the same problem...however, if you install the Amazon app store (http://www.amazon.com/gp/mas/get-appstore/android/ref=mas_rw_ldg) and search for their app and install it from there, it will download and install automatically

Worked (need to install amazon appstore and 'purchase' - its free-the app via web appstore).
Unfortunately twc and bright house arent supported (the work fine on the non kindle version)
I'm on hellfire's ICS. I downloaded the app above and when I opened it up it says that I don't own the app. When I press see details it takes me to the Amazon app store with hbo go tantalizing close. Yet it won't let me "purchase " it because it says it is not compatible with my device.

go to the amazon WEBSITE and purchase the app, not the amazon app store application...you should still have the stock kindle on you amazon account which would allow purchase
That did it. I tried doing it from the Site's mobile format and it didn't work. But I went to the full Site and was able to get it. Unfortunately I am also on TWC.. :-(

I am using gede's rom as well. I had the hbo 1.4 from the market before this and worked as well.
But I did go through the website as suggested and purchased the app from amazon. However the app does not show up under the amazon app on the KF.
I first made a tb backup of my 1.4 first and then uninstalled the app all together.
I then side loaded the apk in the thread after I purchased the app from amazon. Installed the apk from my dropbox account.
At first I tried to open the app right after the install and was getting force closes at random times. So I knew it worked and so I decided to just reboot and see. And viola! The app opens without an issue. I am watching Kung Fu Panda 2 right now in HD
I wonder why TWC isn't listed in the providers with the new HBO Go app. This kind of irritates me since I use TWC and can not use the new it.

http://www.multichannel.com/article/485577-HBO_Go_Gets_Fired_Up_For_Amazon_Kindle.php
what's crazy is HBO is actually owned by the Time Warner parent company...and they stated only 1% of their viewership even use Go.
the regular one on the play store has TWC, and so does the ipad one (which the KF one closely resembles), so it's just stupidity
Thanks. I got it to install and run but still force closes after reboot. Any idea why?
edit: wiped data in Titanium Backup and ran app a few more times and it finally works lol
It's there now
Although you've already solved the problem, I just wanted to inform you that it is on the Amazon Appstore now.
I'm running the Hellfire ROM and downloaded HBO GO from the Play Market and it works great!

[Q] AT&T G3 No visual voicemail/ other Apps

Hello, I just got my G3 from AT&T on Friday and I've noticed some issues with the Play store showing apps that should be available. The AT&T Visual Voicemail app says that its not compatible, but if I download the apk from XDA, it works fine. Also, I can't locate the Amazon app (Regular Store App, not App Store app). Its almost like the phone is not an AT&T phone. When I put Visual Voicemail in the Play store, it shows TMobiles VV and allows me to download and install it but not AT&T. Any suggestions?
mine had vvm preloaded on it. i'm not seeing amazon app either, maybe a compatibility thing for the screen res?
Just find the att vvm apk online and install it. Working fine on my g3.
Same with the Amazon app apk. Not to be confused with the Amazon app store apk
Sent from my G3!
This is because of our screens. The play store restricts what it shows you based on your screen size/resolution. I believe there's an xposed module that fixes this not sure though

A friend of mine actually found an older apk for Amazon and installed it. It works fine, but Google Play says it incompatible. To me, the mobile Amazon page is very similiar to the app.

I actually prefer the visual voicemail app that came preloaded on my G3. I had nothing but problems with the AT&T app on my M7 and had to switch to YouMail to maintain that functionality. The "stock" app is speedy and clean.

This is true
I simply went to www.amazon.com and installed the Amazon App Store apk. Then from the app store I downloaded the Amazon apk.

Is anyone else continuously prompted to enter their password before they can check visual voicemail and download the messages? Mine prompts me quite often, then gives me an 'cannot perform login due to error in connection' message.

I found the google voice widget to be terrible with my last phone. I wouldn't get messages for long periods of time. I haven't tried it with the g3, but the stock visual voicemail works fine.

Amazon Not Available for our device?

It says Its not compatible. Anyone else getting this error? And I'm talking about the regular amazon app not the appstore version. Wtf lol
Sent from my LG-D850 using Tapatalk
Yeah, some apps won't show up because of the dpi of the device. I am rooted, and I am using the "Play Store Fixes" module in Xposed, and now all apps are showing up. You might want to look into this as well if you are rooted, or plan to root.

I installed Amazon this morning with no issues. Rooted. No dpi fix.

Go through Amazon's own Appstore
I had noticed the same issue as well. I end up using some apps I got for free on Amazon Appstore, so after I got those apps, I just thought of trying for Amazon app. Turns out, it works just fine.
Here's the Amazon Appstore download instruction, and once you have that, you can either search from the appstore or get it through app download site.
I just installed it aswell. maybe they updated it.

At the rate Google and all the other apps update the TBO guys do a hell of a job!
I use a ton of their apps and if there is a new feature one of those version updates brings they're pretty quick to theme it.
A great deal of the app updates are just minor silly things and when they open up the apks to theme they'll even say in their thread how that version update was nothing major at all!
TBO all the way!

[Q] Amazon APP not compatible?

When I go to the playstore and try to install the Amazon app, it says that the app is not compatible with the ROM, any idea?
No one else has this problem? Just to add, I am on Stock Cyanogen 38R with unlocked bootlader and rooted. And I am based in India so India Play Store.
Are you talking about the Amazon App Store app? I've been running it on this device since day one, but I sideloaded it.

This happened to me when I changed the DPI. Happens with some apps. If this is the case with you, then try setting back to stock DPI which is 480. You can then change it back after you've installed it and it should still run fine.

Is this a separate apk? Wondering why it is not working from the Google Play store, any one else facing this issue?
I am receiving similar errors but with all Amazon apps except the amazon app that allows you to look at your orders and search amazon.com. The app store, music app and the cloud drive photo storage app all crash as soon as I try to sign in. Im running stock 38R as well and I had the same problem prior to updating to 38R. On the Oneplus Forums it seems lots of people have been having problems with Amazon apps, but no one has had any clue as to why or how to fix it. Hoping someone over here can shed some light on the subject!

If you go to the link I provided and download the apk it will work.
App works fine on the outside screen (not full screen though) but when phone is opened, whole UI is messed up. Shutter button shows up in the middle and rest of the UI is cut off.
