[Q] Want UK marketplace in £ without using enabler - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

OK, i flashed Supervillan ROM yesterday. Enjoying the ROM however the market is in some very weird currency? tried using Market Enabler but closest i can get is o2 de? Thus all apps are in Euros. there seems a lot of apps too that are missing that i got no probs when i was using defrost, ie toggle settings and root explorer to name a couple.
Can anyone help with this issue or send me in a rom direction that has uk market as standard! Its driving me nuts lol.

Help for a friend...

My friend broke her G1 and got the Slide to replace it, she doesn't like the texting application. I'm sure theres a way to get rid of that or just preferably install stock android on the thing. I don't yet have any experience with Android (I will be getting the Droid X in a week) so I would love a bit of hand holding here.
As far as I understand it would would involve rooting the device and then installing a rom of normal android? Is this correct?
I would love if someone could actually walk me through the process or any tips, keep me in mind that once I do this for her she needs to be able to just use it forever after that. I don't wanna flash her phone and it ends up crashing a week late or something.
So can I be pointed in the right directions?
You would have to Root the Phone to Remove Built in Apps. BUT, Since this IS Android you are not bound to use the Default Messaging App. You can download some very good and Feature Rich Messaging apps from the Market. 2 Free ones that come to mind are Handcent (which I used to use before I got my Slide) and ChompSMS. You just have to uncheck the Recieved Notification box in the HTC one and you should be ok from there.
Before going through the trouble of rooting, has she tried any of the available messaging apps from the market yet?

Yea, per your suggestions I told her to just try installing another to see if she likes it.

[Q] CM6.1 + Android Online Market

Is anyone else having issues downloading apps remotely from the newly launched Android Online Market with CM6.1? It may or may not be related to the ROM you're using, I'm just curious.

Android online market?? U mean the one built into the Rom or is there a literal one online now?
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App
I'm having issues. When I login, select an App and then choose install, I get the message 'There are no android phones associated with this account. Please sign in with a different account'.
Not sure if the online Android Market (market.android.com) is unable to detect a device if it's on a rooted / CyanogenMod OS?
I just tested this....Worked just fine. Incredible running 6.1 stable and invisiblek kernel.
Glad to hear it's working for you. Anyone else? I'm still experiencing the same issue(s). If I go to My Market Account on the top right after I login (market.android.com), I can see Orders which shows all of my Apps. When I click the Settings tab, I get 'There are no Android devices associated with this account'.

It just went live today. So cool
I'm also using CM6.1 and it downloaded just fine. Is the account you're signing into the same online and on your phone? (dumb question I know, but just wanted to check )

Yes it is.

I am having the same issue - but on a Desire running Oxygen ROM 2.0 (Gingerbread).
There was not post in the desire forums about this, but now it makes me wonder if it might be related to the version of the Market Place that is running on the device? (Old version in this ROM)
I've got an Inc running Cm6.1 with Invisible Kernel.
It recognizes two devices on the account (One presumably being the Droid I previously owned.)
It says it installs, my phone simply never receives the information, I guess.
Are you guys all on the updated market?
I'm on the updated market and it's working for me - if you're not on the latest market, my guess is it's not going to work.
Could also be it's the first day of the new online market, they could still be working out the kinks, I'd give it a couple of days before worrying about it

That's true. I might have to update the market and see if that does the trick.
The only other issue is, like I said, the two devices showing up, even though I only own one device.
I'm using a rooted Desire with HTC Stock-ROM and the web-market doesn't work as well.
As of today, still having the same issue(s). Been seeing this problem all over the web after I do some searches. Seems I'm not alone.
I'm having problems as well.
I am running market version 2.2.7 which i found an APK for around here.
I see my Incredible (and presumably my old Droid too) listed, but it says last accessed on Dec 26 or so.
So it possibly isn't connecting to the market in some way that it needs to be?
I have CM6.1 and i cant access the online market either. i have market version 2.2.1.1
I am also running CM 6.1 and Market version 2.2.11 and I can't get the new web market to work either. I thought it was because I didn't have the latest version of the Market, but I guess that's not it either.
One solution to the "There are no Android devices associated with this account." problem is to remove accounts.db and Market settings: http://hacktheman.org/fixing-android-market-website/

[Q] Some apps not showing - weird problem with web/phone based Market

OK here goes ...
I got a Galaxy Nexus on a new plan with Vodafone Australia and passed on my Desire HD to my Mrs.
The G Nexus came with 4.0.1 installed.
I havent rooted the GNex, but the DHD is rooted and running English version of MIUI from miuiandroid.com.
Cut back to yesterday, when I tried to install an app from Market on my GNex. Its called "My Vodafone" and is published by Vodafone Australia. It didnt come up when searched on Market app on my GNex.
Then I tried to search for the app on my wife's DHD. Same thing doesnt show up. She's with Vodafone as well. I know the apps there on Market because ppl have installed it.
Even more surprising is that a friend of mine who is with a different provider (Optus) can see the app in his Market app on his GNex !!!!!!!!!!!
Then I try to get it via the web based market.android.com.
Logged in, searched for the app, but again it says its not compatible.
What could be wrong ?
Is it the phone/ICS/carrier that is causing this to happen ?
Apart from this I am getting turned off by this fragmentated, rugged experience of using Android. ICS was supposed to be more polished than ever !
But sadly, it hasn't lived upto its mark for me..
I have had other issues with the GNex/ICS but this one is the worst one so far.
What can I do to install this and other apps which are showing on my friends GNex, but not on mine
The developer must update the app to show its compatible (in the market) with ICS.
I would pull the .apk with titanium backup from your wifes phone and side load it to your phone.

Its not that straight forward. The app is showing on my friends GNex which also runs on ICS !!!!!!

[Q] Need for Speed™ Most Wanted incompatible with Samsung SGH-T989

Hi everyone,
Just got my new Samsung S2X (SGH-T989D) from koodo, try to download NFSWM, but only found the game is not compatible.
I heard people with S2 can play the game just fine, its that true? I figure it could be the Adreno 220 GPU or the stock 4.04 Rom causing the problem.
Can someone show me how to make the game work if its possible?
Thanks for reading
Koodo GS2X here, NFS works fine on my phone. Though I am running Liquid ROM. Are you on the stock ROM? Try installing the app, then go to settings > apps > force stop. Then clear cache and data, then uninstall and reboot. Reinstall to see if it works.
I e-mailed the developer and their only response was that they don't support rooted phones. You can try e-mailing google to find out if there's an issue specifically with our phone.
Thanks for response. I cann't find the game on android google play at all, it only shows on pc version but with incompatible sign. I am new to android and running stock firmware s2x. Maybe google and ea only.add t989 to the device list and forget t989d an

It has nothing to do with being rooted. It's a region issue. I looked into it, plus spoke to someone from their tech division. Something sbout certain US regions aren't supported yet. Basically, the game runs on our devices, no matter root, or not....just being held up by EA.

I have went back to stock rom at one point, and remembered to search the play store, but it wouldn't show up, again. I went on google and pulled it up from there, and it said incompatible.

Fire Phone - 3.6.6 & Google Apps

So here in the UK, we're stuck on 3.6.6 which, thanks to O2 UK, seems likely to be where we're gonna stay for a long time.
My question is : Where (or How) is the best way of getting hold of our much loved google play APK's?
I've tried a few APK downloaders online, and by far I seem to find apps.evozi(.com) the most useful - However - It tends to be very out of date, slow and I cannot download my premuim apps!
Dont get me wrong, in some ways I do like this phone (barring the horrible dialer, 3D land and no google play)
Is there anyway of getting round this mess (Without trading my AFP in for a new HTC M9 or an S6?)
Hi mate, Im the same as you, on o2, and stuck on 3.6.6 ..... this is the correct thread to use, worked for me

I tried this a few months back with no joy. -Just a consistent popup saying some process or another has stopped. I can get the google parts to load once, but it wont load the store once installed - just gives me a white screen. Might try it again tonight

You can downgrade to 3.5, root and install gapps.
