How to install on Acer Iconia A500/A501
It is hard to install this game on some tablets (perhaps Amazon feel this game only works on Amazon Kindle Fire and older tablets??). The method below may work.
- If you have Amazon Appstore 2.0 or above, uninstall it (if it thinks that your device is incompatible, uninstall it).
- Install the old Amazon Appstore version (link provided below). Run that, and attempt to purchase and install the game. Or, if you have already purchased it (using a different Android device), still click on the install/download button, the orange button, on your Iconia Tab (it will inform you that you already purchased it - and you probably still cannot install it).
[Link to the old Amazon Appstore: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=693752] - (Assuming you still cannot install the app on the tablet) After you purchased/re-purchased it using the old version of Amazon Appstore, exit Amazon Appstore (the old version).
- You should be offered to update Amazon Appstore to the latest version (check the notification bar). Do that and update to the latest version.
- Then open the updated Amazon Appstore, and this time, the latest version of Appstore hopefully will let you download it to your tablet (and install it).
Please report your findings so other OZB users can benefit from your experience.
This is an Amazon Appstore issue, not a firmware issue as I thought previously.
cant seem to get it working - amazon appstore not available in your region?
