- WARNING: A poster below suggested Zeus Browser but it does not WORK on Amazon Prime!!!!!!!
Why can't I get Amazon videos to play on my Passport. I successfully downloaded new Amazon Underground which is supposed to play Amazon Prime Instant Video.
Update: I found this and it seems easy, http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/how-get-ado...rowser-1490960
I haven't install the modified BB Browser yet, I have it download to my PC where I'll side load it with saceshi.

I was able to install Amazon Underground, and it works but it won't play on Passport, it says there is some reason it won't, missing flash?!?!11-10-15 09:05 PMLike 0 -
See if that method still works. It did for me until I updated the Instant Video app by mistake. I have yet to downgrade back to the version in the Crackberry article.11-10-15 11:42 PMLike 0 - How to get Amazon Prime Instant Video on BlackBerry 10 | CrackBerry.com

- Right, you do have the App Store already. It comes with the Passport. However, you need to follow the article's steps to get Amazon Instant Video. Perhaps the version of the store or some other app you installed has rendered Instant Video inoperable.11-11-15 10:24 AMLike 0
- Which store do I use to get those at? And yes, the Amazon Underground is locked in now, It won't let me delete it.11-11-15 04:42 PMLike 0
- Sure did, keeps taking me to a web version of Google Play Store. I figured out that to delete Amazon Underground I had to back into Amazon App Store, My Apps, then without any instructions or guidance from Amazon figured out that I had to press and hold the App then a menu comes up to delete. So I got Amazon Instant Video on and installed but it started to work until got to actually run a video where it crashed then the next start up it just gave a message unable to work, like others at the end of the comments, I don't think it works anymore!11-12-15 06:24 AMLike 0
- The Instant Video app stopped working for me during the late summer. I ended up getting Flash Browser from the store and use desktop mode to watch videos from both Amazon and PureFlix.
I know an app would be better (and faster) but this works just as well.

Here's the article CB did originally
http://m.crackberry.com/missing-adob...ay-get-it-back
It's also the same link later to yeah.so.
To be clear, it's still not supported. I don't own Amazon Prime, and I don't claim to have made an Amazon Prime Video player. That said, I'll update Zeus and should fix it - obviously I won't be updating FlashPlayer.bar.
One caution: I directed someone on a refund request yesterday after getting a few emails, if that's you, this probably won't help you much as BlackBerry prevents repurchases or updating refunded apps in BlackBerry World.

Now that I've been shown the error, it looks like a User Agent update could fix Amazon Prime in Zeus.

I'm glad you are going to update the app... for me no refund is needed I had the app a while and got great use out of it! I know that updates from the source (this case Amazon) can break 3rd party apps, so no biggie for me!

I see the OP left quite the review of the app too but what can you do. Anyway mmm anyway if all is well I will push it to AppWorld tonight. Thanks for being patient

Going to get Amazon Prime myself, and hammer on it until it works. I have some plans that might work still . I'm hoping they aren't browser locking because they need a special DRM in HTML5 and removed Flash.

I saw your Zeus browser review on bbw. Not cool and not true. The browser does what it is supposed to, which is provide flash support.
Posted via CB10KermEd likes this.11-25-15 06:40 PMLike 1 - None of the flash browsers work anymore. They all worked until about a week ago when amazon changed something. I have tried Zeus, Dolphin, and the yeah.so flash browser.

Crazy persistence might win though if I keep picking at it. Tomorrow maybe I'll add netflix and amazon prime disclaimers on the descriptor though, I don't want people buying it for the wrong reasons. Flash is on the way out so hopefully if people grab the browser, it's to support (and so many folks on CB do that it's mind-boggling) ... or because they really are stuck with flash on something.

And yeah, absolutely, bad reviews can suck and thank you, thinking out loud though - at least it let's people speak their minds... and it shows me that I need to do something better on my side.

In the standard browser, I used to have the option of Silverlight or Flash. Now I just get Silverlight (or upgrade browser to use html5 player).
I also tried latest firefox mobile browser in desktop mode, but it still told me to upgrade to latest version.
