It doesnt show up in the app store for your phone because its only compatible with kindle fire. If you go through amazon.com to purchase the app it sends you to the app store app and when you try to buy it tells you it's only compatible with the fire.

You should have over 700-1000 amazon coins at this point. Now go to the Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas app page. The app cost 699 coins BUT there is a promo where Amazon will give you another 2000 coins with the purchase.

The apps are listed in the #1 post of this slickdeals link:

Free apps that offer Amazon Coins

Have fun! LOL BTW, I have no idea how long this deal will last until Amazon fixes it.

apparently you can keep deleting and rebuying san andreas to get up to 20k coins a day, im doing it now, seems to work

assume that is 20k-699 per purchase

Not sure if it was posted but Verizon is doing 100 off most phones. Ship the 100$ S5.

LOL... That is hilarious.

BTW, the coins are like cash that can be used to buy any item in the Amazon app store. They WILL expire in one year.

so my download for kitkat on razr maxx hd got stuck at 47% while i was at work today (no wifi), when i came home it never resumed so i restarted my phone. now i can't get the download to continue. When I go to about phone -> System updates, the phone doesn't respond at all. When I use device manager on the computer, it says an update is currently in progress. tried rebooting phone, wifi on and off, clearing cache partition on phone... dunno what else to try. Do I need to factory reset or wait?

Why not buy the Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas app (just one time) and get the 2000 (minus the 699 coin cost) coins for it?

LOL @ Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas being the #1 app in the Amazon store. What a shock.

My s3 gets unusable slow when I have Lookout running and any type of install / update is going on. Seems fine otherwise but very strongly considering shutting down some features.

I wonder if they fixed the ability to buy it and delete it multiple times? Bought it, deleted it, bought it again but it didn't show up in my apps the second time and didn't get the 2k credits the second time.

There is some time lag in getting the credits again and if you just refresh the page you just deleted it on it will delete it again

hmmm, yeah, it worked once for me today but not again after that

of well!
