Wow! I did it! I bought an app, Mantano Essentials, for 2.99 from Google play, installed it on a Lenovo Tab, then figured out how to back it up with ES File explorer, put it into Sugarsync, downloaded to my new Fire HD, installed, and it works!!! I am so glad, as I like the 2 page layout with Mantano, but with the Lite version, you couldn't change the default font.

I'll have to see if I can use this procedure to put Minecraft on my daughters Fire2. I should have bought it from Amazon, what was I thinking!
