Root Amazon app "network error"

[sushifor5]

Is anyone else having trouble with the amazon mobile app? I can't checkout; I keep trying the process but it stops and I get a "network error" message. Any suggestions? TIA!

I am on my son's it's very frustrating especially since its the same account as my phone and my phone works

hmmm...so maybe it's a physical phone problem? or is it a rom problem? i thought it was a weak signal problem, but other apps are working fine...

i'm wondering if the new harmonia flash would clear it up...

Probably a ROM problem. Maybe you need to update the app in market?

The Amazon market isn't in the market but mine is now working out of the blue

Shes talking about the amazon website store app, not the amazon market I believe. I am positive this is not a problem with the rom ether. I had this problem on stock without even being rooted. Sometimes the app just will randomly say network error in a "toast" message. I do not know why it happens, I contacted amazon support numerous times and all they responded with was uninstall and reinstall. That never worked. I think it is just a problem with the app and the way it sees network protocols.

Why not?

Was thinking the app store

Why not?

GOOGLE doesn't want an app for a competing ANDROID APP STORE setting up camp on their turf.
Can't say I blame them....... just as you can't download the GOOGLE PLAY STORE APP from AMAZON.

I know that the AMAZON APP & the AMAZON ANDROID APP STORE are two different apps, but, try this anyway, at least for nothing else, the process of elimination while troubleshooting :


Go to the AMAZON ANDROID APPSTORE on your desktop PC or phone browser.

Look for listed devices.If your current phone is listed more that once, de-list your phone entirely from the APPSTORE.

Then, un-install the AMAZON APP & AMAZON ANDROID APPSTORE.
APP from your phone.

Re-install each & sign in & see if it works.

Ohhhh makes sense......I don't see a point in more than one app store, metropcs also has their own app store with stock roms, I would never use that.....two app stores I personally like the ability to find every app in one place....well that's impossible with some apps that violate rules....

Amazon has free app of the day.

Just my point of having 2

I use Appbrain as a front-end for both. Just my two cents....

Once a day I synchronize Appbrain. It will show available updates (even when Play store is being dumb) and give a one click link to the update page in the play store. For Amazon apps, when an update shows in Appbrain, I then fire up the Appstore to check. Usually Amazon apps are two or three revisions back, not much to be done about that....
