Amazon Prime Video App Download For Android Mobile
Bernd Manison
We have worked with Sony TV about connecting our Bravia Smart TV to Amazon Prime TV through our TMobile Home Internet. It is only our Smart TV that will not connect. Our other TVs that are streaming through Roku Devices (one with a Roku Soundbar) do not have a problem.
@DiBucky from my experience, not all systems are IPV6 ready today. Reviewing the following Sony network setup article, they recommend IPV4, and I do to. Unless you have skillsets to configure TCP/IP and a degree in networking, setting up your system on IPV4 will work efficiently and be easier to setup.
Have you tried using a VPN? That would give you an external IP that is both local and IPv4. Also, if I understand your posting correctly, you don't have a problem when accessing it through an external device like a Roku. There are plenty of those around as well for next to nothing. I understand it's not an ideal solution, but it may work for you if you want to continue using TMHI.
Seems to be a specific incompatibility between Tmobile gateway and Google TV interface. Both my Sony TV (running Google TV) and Chromecast with Google TV (4k) have issues only with the Amazon Prime streaming app. Not experiencing this with other streaming boxes with Amazon Prime app(roku, firestick). The only workaround I have so far is connecting the SmartTV/GoogleTV to a repeater or using your own wifi router (which unfortunately defeats the purpose of the T-mobile 2 in 1 gateway). Hoping T-mobile can fix this. As it stands, they still haven't fixed the gateway error when you click "Devices" on the T-mobile internet app, and it's difficult to manage devices on your network.
Just replaced my original TMobile gateway with the new Sagemcom Fast 5688W Gateway and immediately had an issue with Prime video on my Sony TV. After trying everything under the sun to fix it, I found this thread mentioning the IPv6 issue. My solution was to configure my mesh router to disable IPv6 and hard wire into the network. Restarted TV and checked ethernet settings in the settings menu.
As mentioned above, the issue seem to be that the Gateway defaults to IPv6 protocols but Prime ONLY uses IPv4.
The solution is to set your home network router to use IPv4 and not v6. This cannot be set on the Gateway.
Thought I would weigh in on this topic since I have the same problem with TMHI and Amazon Prime video. The prime app will load (slowly) but refuses to play videos (or trailers). My set up is tmhi Sagemcom gateway, TCL smart TV, and I just got the new Onn 4k pro streaming box. Everything works except Amazon. The Sony TV in the bedroom has a Google chromcast and it does not play videos on Amazon Prime either. Please TMO try and solve this problem, it's for real. ?
Instead of waiting for a fix, you might do what others suggest and get a cheap Fire TV stick and use that to stream Prime Video. Also, you can connect to Prime Video on your PC or cell phone and cast it to your Sony TV, after setting up casting.
I am doing that now with Tubi TV, since their latest update made their app incompatible with my Sony Bravia. I bring up what I want to watch my desktop or Moto cell phone and cast it to my TV. The Sony remote even works in pausing, FF, RW and stopping what I am watching.
P.S. An odd thing I discovered today . . . I turned off my cell phone, in the middle of a show, to disconnect from Tubi, but the show continued to play on my TV even after my cell phone was off! Someone please explain how that could be. :)
@preensie: Please can you try heading to Settings > Display > Extra brightness, and toggle this option on to see if you notice an improvement? You may also wish to toggle off 'Adaptive brightness' and manually adjust the brightness slider to improve the quality of dark scenes in the Prime Video app. Let me know if this helps.
I have the same problem. Just upgraded from Note 9 to S23 Ultra, Prime Video is now terribly dark, regardless of phone settings. Turn brightness all the way up no difference. Extra brightness it is still too dark. auto brightness on or off, no difference. I can see it light up nice when I rotate the phone so the image flips, but after half a second it goes back to dark. There is some setting conflicting between this new phone, and the Prime app.
I've spoken with Samsung on the phone before about other issues. The problem is that very few people know this in-depth of detail to be able to help. That would be the guys who coded the phone who would have more of an idea of what's wrong. It's definitely an amazon prime issue, as the content on YouTube is awesome. I find it useless on prime.

Amazon Business customers have always been able to use the Amazon mobile app to make business purchases. However, previously you had to log out of your personal account and tog back in using your business one. To simplify this, the app has been updated to allow quick toggling between personal and business accounts, without having to log out, maintaining a safe separation of information between your accounts.
"We continuously seek opportunities to innovate on behalf of our customers and make buying for work easier. With this feature, we have enabled business customers to purchase from anywhere and have simplified their job by not having to log out from their personal account. However, it is still Day 1, and we will continue to build unique experiences that make business purchasing more convenient" says Terry Leeper, Director of Products & Technology at Amazon Business.
The app is focused primarily on the buying experience, and all major features required to complete the purchase are available to customers using the app. So, whether you're out in the field closing deals, surveying your construction site, or in a restaurant kitchen, you can now purchase what you need from Amazon Business from anywhere using the same Amazon app you use for personal needs.
You can download the Amazon app by visiting Google Play store (Android) or Apple App store (iOS). If you already have the app and are logged in with your personal account, you can go to Menu--> Settings--> Switch Accounts, and add your Amazon Business account. From here, you can select a different account, add additional ones, and sign out of any you'd like.
Any account in the switcher list is available for switching into, without needing a password. If you sign out, the current account will be removed from the switcher list, and another account will be defaulted as the current active account.
There's a similiar question regarding this topic (how launch amazon prime video app from within my android app using intent), but it doesn't solve my problem - solution to OP's problem was to use PackageManager (which I'm already using) and com.amazon.avod.thirdpartyclient, since the app was running on phone/tablet instead of TV
EDIT: Intent.migrateExtraStreamToClipData() on a null object reference does not solve my problem. I have Google Play Services installed on my Android TV, version 11.5.09, while the bug causing the other question's problem was (supposedly) fixed in 9.4.0. Anyway, accepted solution is just about avoiding app crash, not fixing the real problem.
As explained in getLaunchIntentForPackage is null for some apps, the root cause of the problem is that Android TV apps use Intent.CATEGORY_LEANBACK_LAUNCHER instead of Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER, which causes getLaunchIntentForPackage() to return null. Some TV apps do support Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER, though, that's why the problem doesn't apply to every single app.
notice getLeanbackLaunchIntentForPackage() used as a fallback mechanism. This way, activity will be started properly both on Android TV and phone/tablet (mind that phone/table and TV often have separate apps for same service, like com.amazon.avod.thirdpartyclient and com.amazon.amazonvideo.livingroom)
