Is it a native or android-converted app ?

**curiouslow** · 12-13-2012, 08:27 AM

thank you for your reply

it is an android converted app.

Just search for the android version (.apk) and convert it @ PlayBook .apk to .bar converter for free, and no installation needed

the site he linked you to does all the job for you, just need to have the android apk and knowledge on how to sideload.

I know how to sideload, i just can't seem to find the apk file and don't know how to create a bar file.

well to get the apk there is several ways. if you have an android you can install an apk backup app(there is lots for free) then transfer the apks to your pc, from your pc go to the link posted above, there you will have the option to upload ur apk and it will give you a link to download the converted file. another way to get a hold of the apk is on goodereder appstore search on the android apps not the converted ones, the last way I know is from an app called blackmart alpha can't remember where I got it from but it has lots of apps I believe is all but can be wrong. the app works fine sideloaded but crashes sometimes but it gives the option to download apk only.

hope I could help if I miss anything ill let you know

Would be interested in getting the newest APK in my hands as well. The most current version 3.0.2 was released last week, and I'm anxious to see if I can get it to sideload and run on my PB. The previous version did not work as it was solely intended for Kindle Fire devices, but 3.0.2 is for use on a number of android devices. Anyone have an android device so they can download the app from Gplay and host up the APK for us?

I'll see what i can do. If i have the most recent apk, i'll convert it for you guys too

Thanks. Even the APK would be good - that way multiple people can try converting & installing. Having the Optimum app (as well as GoToAssist) on my playbook would make it truly 'complete'

Hi, Jeroen

sorry i haven't posted in a while. The wife was in the hospital so i've been very busy running back and forth like a chicken with no head, cluck cluck, lol. Anyway i just wanted to check and see if you had any luck with the optimum app and if possible can you posted so i can give it a shot. Thanks in advance and have a great holiday to you and the family.
