How to Launch Android Market From Kindle Fire Interface

So now you know how to install Android Market and gain access to many more apps than you normally have with Kindle Fire. But what if you want to launch the Android Market directly from the Kindle Fire bookshelf?

Inside I’ll show you how to Launch Android Market directly from Kindle Fire’s UI…

Special thanks goes to munday from the XDA forums for creating this APK to launch the Market from Kindle Fire’s UI.

How to Launch Android Market from Kindle Fire

Note: You must already have Android Market installed on your device. This is basically just a shortcut to the already installed Market. If you don’t have Market installed, you will receive an error.

Step 1: Open a browser and download and install the MarketOpener.APK

Step 2: You should now see the MarketOpener in your carousel. Tap and hold on it and select save to favorites to save it in your bookshelf. Now you can launch Android Market directly from your Kindle Fire interface.

Thanks for the video but I have a little problem. After I use it for a day …I turn it off and turn it back on the next day and android market did not return to work. Says I have to add an account, but when I push the botton to add the account , it automatically closes. Gmail also did not even open.

I NEED HELP RUSH!…

Can I Restore everything to the default setting and Re-Root The Device or just Re-installed Again… I dont Know To Much about this! jajaaj….

I believe it was the Kindle update that was released that caused the problem. I am having trouble with it as well.

Yeah I can’t launch the Amazon Marketplace either, if I can’t soon I’ll just return my kindle fire and get a real android device

I installed everything you did but ‘You must add an account to the device to continue.Do you want to add one now? ‘ this sentence appears and doesn’t work anymore. I can’t add new account too. What should I do???

I just succeeded in getting the Market installed. Using a root file manager made it a little easier for but some may wish to use other ways. A root file manage permits you to see the hidden folders at system/apps.

I have installed the Android Market, I have installed the MarketOpener.apk and moved to favorites. When I want to open it KF tells me to add an account and when pressing yes I’m back to the main screen!

Didn’t make any change at all …. I’m finding more errors on this url all the time.
