Anyone get Amazon Instant Video working?

Hi:

How did you get it to work, I tried downloading Firefox Beta and going into my Prime account--no luck. Did you have to root your phone or do anything else? I really am hesitant to try if it is too complicated. Another member suggested sideloading Flash but it sounded like you had to root the device which I have never done. Please help!

Follow the instructions for installing flash in the sticky in this section. It does not require rooting your device. You will need flash to use Amazon Instant Video.

With sideloaded Flash on a non-rooted Nexus 7, Amazon Prime works great with the Boat Browser.

I have spent two days trying every (seems like but I'm sure it's not) Android browser trying to access my Amazon video content on my new Galaxy note 8.0. I truly love this tablet and was very unhappy to discover I can't access my library or the prime video content. I did get it to work using puffin. I side loaded flash first, but I don't think you need to do this. It's the only success I've had(and I tried Firefox, boat , Dolphin, Dolphin mini, and Opera in conjuction with and with out several versions of Adobe flash from thIer archives) getting it to play at all on the note 8. Unfortunately it's really too poor in quality and very chopy making the time and effort of getting it to work just fuel to the fires of irritation I have with Amazon over this. Left trying to figure out what to do. Tomorrow is day 14 in my 15 day return on the note. I don't want to return it. .. I like it, but I use the prime video service alot and have a good size library on Amazon. the cost of the note makes keeping it when I lose my most used video content dumb. I had the original Kindle which finally died after about a year of charge issues that killed my daughters Kindle 6 months earlier that was purchased together with mine. Because of that, I don't want another Kindle. I also don't want an I pad as id lose my Android content, sad Dilemma,.. What to do?
