Stake/Ward Central 2.17

The church released the LDS.org Calendar 2.0 on October 26th. With the calendar update, the interface used by Stake Central to download the calendar events changed and is no longer working in Stake/Ward Central 2.13 and earlier releases.

I released this weekend, Stake Central Version 2.15 to fix these problems. 2.15 is compatible with the updated church calendar and fixes several bugs.

Versions 2.16 and 2.17 have quickly followed to fix bugs in this latest version.

FAQ#7 - How can I install the Stake Central on my Kindle Fire or other device not supported by the Android Market?

Stake Central has been removed from the Android Play Store and is no longer available from my website. The church app, LDS Tools now provides most of the features that Stake Central provided.  

I have not chosen to publish the app in the Amazon Appstore. You can however download the app for free from my website and install it directly to your device. Here are the instructions.

1. Go to your device's home screen, press the menu button and click on Settings and then Application Settings. Enable the "Unknown Sources" option.  For the Amazon Kindle, click on the settings icon at the top of the screen (it looks like a gear cog). Click on More... and then on Device. Change the setting "Allow Installation of Applications from Unknown Sources" to On.
2. Open the browser on your device and browse http://stakecentral.com/Downloads/sc2download.php?key=kindlefire. This will download the app to your device.
3. From the browser's downloads page, click on the .apk link to install the app on your phone. On the Kindle Fire, access the downloads page by clicking on the menu icon at the bottom of the screen (it looks like the top of a box with three horizontal lines) and click Downloads.
