I'm curious why yours keeps failing though. It looks like the HD 6 has recent Fire OS so that shouldn't be a problem. Do you have the latest - should be 5.3.1.1. Do you have automatic updates on in the Play Store or Amazon appstore? I don't know if that will make a difference, but I have them turned off and I haven't had a problem. I just updated an app from the Play Store and rebooted and everything still works.
Just checked and i have the default settlng of auto updates ON in Google play. So between us we are running both options ok. I wonder if its the play store app trying and failing to update itself. When I grabbed the apps as per the how to install... article I followed the " there is a newer version of that.. option "for each app at the download site
