    Download the APK. Convert it using a website such as PlayBook .apk to .bar converter , then sideload it using the Playbook App Manager extension for chrome. ( https://chrome.google.com/webstore/d...pblnikkp?hl=en )

    No you do not have to download the Android OS. BB10 comes with a built in android runtime which allows for the porting of Android apps by developers. This has also opened the door for side loading of Android apps. There are many threads that give a step by step process on how to do it.

    Also use the unlocked version of android runtime that comes with the 10.2.0.1371. If you use an earlier version of 10.2, then use the android runtime 810. If you do a search for either of those, you will find threads that will help you, or you can pm me and I will help you through it.

    What OS version are you running? The version of Android runtime can affect the app.

    Go to the thread, "BerryLeaks offers Unlocked Android Runtime." you might try to side load that. After you do, make sure to reboot your phone. You may have to delete and reload the app you want as well.

    That version can't be right. 10.2 is the latest. Type myver on the keyboard and it should auto correct to insert your OS version.
    myver -- Z10STL100-3/10.2.0.1047
