It works for a few hours then I start having apps freeze up on me. Has anyone had luck with downloading it and working well? I really miss my mighty text app that lets me text from my pc and get notifications.
If the app is free you can get via apk downloader It wont download paid apps but it's a good source for free apps from Google Play.

I installed Play Store using these instructions: http://anderspitman.com/blog/2014/12...ur-fire-phone/. Play store works with no problems for me.

Tube monkey,
I tried that download but when I downloaded to my mac, I could not get it to see the Amazon Fire as a device. I tried dropbox and thought that was going to work and it loaded but would not let me set up the account. I am not very tech savvy so I know I am doing something wrong here.

Connie 200,
Thanks, The last couple I tried only had 3 apks, I see those have4 I may try that next.
