Office suite pro sure that was £7.99 the other day, free now

I got osp7 then spent some of my coins on photosuit so finally managed to spend some of my free coins too which in itself is a little bonus as I've been struggling to find stuff to spend them on, grabbed Plex too.

How do you see the free stuff, via the normal amazon android app, cant seem to see any offers?

I opened my amazon apps app then on the front page saw the free app headline and touched the "see all" icon which opened up a list of the freebies.

This threw me a bit as well as I've never used Amazon's app before. It's not the Google Play Store Amazon app, you need to down load the Amazon App Store app direct from Amazon's website (it's an .apk file) to access the freebies.

It all depends on what ROM you are using. CM per chance? If so, then I think you will be stuck. Sky does suggest using some of the SU hide apps out there. Some people have had limited success with them.

Its the only reason I am still on stock rom on my One S

How do you push the apps to your phone ?

There isn't an option

EDIT - never mind.

Grab Root Explorer if you haven't already.

Also a pro version.

Downloading thanks mate.

root cloak xposed module

Doesn't work. Sky Go uses a native library that operates at a lower level than Xposed.

While they are working on a solution I hold little hope. Pity as it's the only reason my tablet is still unrooted.

Anyone given this a go yet? Not had access to the tablet which is running CM10 and has Sky Go installed to see if it works.
