Anyone elses rooted phone stopped getting paid app access today?

Title says it all.

Yep, blocked or somethings gone wrong.
Market enabler says it is working and access is ready. Go into market, select all apps and then change view to paid.
Getting message "no matching content in Android Market"
Killed tasks, started phone from scratch and still the same.

No problems here...

anyone got any help here please?

I can still see paid apps with my rooted while unlocked hero using market enabler.

Fixed it.
Market enabler was defiantly blocked/or bust in on my phone. Reinstall of app failed, everything failed except for....well PM me for details because I ain't posting it here. I have a feeling it may have been a deliberate act either by Google or Netcom though I cannot see how the later could have achieved this.

Same here.
Worked a couple of days ago.
Not anymore.
Have Onecall and that uses telenor and network Norways net.
Not netcom. Is Google that is ****ing us over again.

Same here , since yesterday , i cannot see paid aps in Market with ME

Basically it says that 3.0 beta works if you set it to o2-de.
And I can confirm that it works (for how long, who knows)
Right now I'm buying out the market in case someone at Google decides it'll be a good idea to remove paid apps again.
I just wish I could actually locate CoPilot GPS....

Just tried,
It works when installing 3.0 beta like you said. I can also see CoPilot on the list of top paid apps.

Can you tell me if this:
http://www.cyrket.com/package/com.alk.copilot.marketplace.na.full
shows up?
Or if the North American one from here shows up:
http://www.alk.eu.com/copilot/android/
I tried both using all 4 profiles in ME3 and none show up.

Calm down, calm down.
As I said, I have sussed the problem and it is not the blocking of T-mobile. It is your operator resetting your location and there is a simple fix.
I have reproduced the problem and a a workaround. Think about it, how can the operator block you if you are on wifi? The market enabler spoofs the location of the phone so the operator sends a message to the unit to reset location back to the home country provider. Google then blocks that as it was before the phone was Market Enabled. All you have to do get the phone back into a position of spoofing its location.
They could not block access for the T-mobile spoof as that would piss of all American Android users on T-Mobile who are not spoofing but have it for real. Therefore country id, in the marketplace, must be a combination of two factors. Google has just found a way of resetting one. I worked out a way of putting it back.

Ummm, I guess you're right. It doesn't show up. I guess the US T-Mobile profile is blocked?

OH come on read please.
For the last sodding time it's not blocked! I am on the T-mobile spoof address after resetting my location!

or if nothing works anymore you go the easyest way like i do since yesterday..... takeout my Orange Swiss simcard, put it in my X1, make it as a router, put my german Simyo simcard into my hero and go online by wifi over X1 if im on the way or use my wify at home...... if using a german simcard oder another one from an activated country everything will work wherever you are

[Q] Phone App Purchase Error

Trying to purchase Windows Phone 7 applications from Zune Marketplace and get an error with a link to: http://www.zune.net/en-US/support/w...help_originalid=C101C400&webhelp_locale=en-US
Anyone know what's up with that? Why won't it let me purchase the applications?
Also - is there no way to use Microsoft Points to purchase games?
Regards.
Salman Khalid.

Purchases through the Marketplace are $$$s only, no way to use MS Points.
As for the other issue, it's not something I've seen. If it's on the phone itself, I'd try a soft reset.

Yeah... i figured about the $$$...
As for the error... it was when i try buying apps from marketplace within Zune desktop software. Of course, take into account the fact that i'm in Pakistan and using the Using store with a US CC... it's probably throwing that error due to my location when verifying to purchase. Though i am able to download Trial and Free apps without issues...
I did find a workaround for the time being though... turning off Wifi on my phone and using Edge to purchase the games using Marketplace on the device itself causes no problems!

[Q] Marketplace problem

Hi All,
Just tried buying an app from the marketplace and got this message:
"Can't get this info right now, please try again later"
I just spent about an hour searching various forums, and there seems to be a real difference of opinion about what this message means. Some posters suggest that it indicates a problem at MS's end (i.e. they're doing maintenance, something is wrong with Windows Live etc), and so the best thing to do is sit tight. Others seem to think it is user problem, and you need to reset the phone, clear the history in IE, turn on/off cookies in IE, etc... Given I didn't change anything on my phone and this just started happening for no obvious reason, I'm inclined to think its an MS problem. Anyone else dealt with this? Advice would be helpful as I don't want to waste time trying all the suggested solutions online...

I have two devices (Trophy). One is OK, but the other the same that you. All are update with the february update...

Just spoke with Microsoft support and they weren't very helpful. Suggested it might be something to do with the IP address the phone is using (I'm currently in Canada, although my Windows Live / Zune account is in the US). That doesn't really make sense to me, as I have been using the phone in Canada since the Feb update with no problems - why should it suddenly have a problem with the IP address? Also, I can still use my Zune Pass...

Sorry my english. I uninstall all aplications with updates in marketplace in the device that not connect. But remains one: Xbox Live Extras. With this device I can't connect to Xbox live. ¿Can you connect to Xbox live? The another device that it's right connect without problems...

Today it works... This night made changes in the profile of XBox Live... But I dón't know if had been casuality...

I have the same problem with my hd7, in spain, since this afternoon i cant buy anything on the market place... xbox live works, zunepass works but no market i cant get nothing even free stuff does not work... any ideas?

Count me in on the Market app install problem. Been trying all day to install some apps and they won't. I get the same message as the OP.

quantum on att here. same problem off and on. i find that if i wait for a few seconds (as if to have the marketplace dumbware to finish loading), and then tap "install" it usually goes through. when it goes through, it says "purchasing" rather than showing only the dots.

Haven't had any problems since I did a hard reset and then "rebuilt" the phone with a Canadian Windows Live account. Can't access my Zune Pass on the phone anymore, of course...
Any chance the update did something to our phones? Has everyone posting here had the update?

I test one thing : changing my windows live id wth another email adress
it works like a chrm
so th bug is due to the windows live account and not the market

The Market seems to be working now. Apps are now installing.

Can anyone else confirm that the problem has now resolved itself? I'm not all that eek to hard reset my phone again and go back to my original live account if it's not going to make a difference...

I just got this problem now! grr, hard reset for no reason, ffs!

Hard reset and set up with US-based account. All working perfectly again. I suspect this problem has something to do with our Live accounts at Microsoft's end. If it happen to me again, I think I'll just wait for things to (hopefully) resolve themselves.

I was having this issue for a week now and fixed it today about 5 hours ago actually. I was looking to see what I may have done recently to cause the issue and I had cookies disabled. Once I re-enabled it, everything worked again.

Well it Works for me again...

marketplace working for unsupported countries?!!!

Hey folks,
I 've been using an unlocked at&t samsung focus in Brazil for quite some time and as any user from unsupported country i've been limited to free apps in marketplace. I dont know if marketplace changed policy or not but today i bought a gold subscription for my xbox live account (which is the same as the one i use in wp7 - US Live Account) and magically everything is working now. I bought monopoly ($4,99) and sound recorder ($0,99) from wp7 marketplace without a problem.
When you buy a gold subscription in xbox they just validate your credit card information without verifying the address so i used my credit card and an US address. Now wp7 seems to be using the same credit card info from xbox live for purchases.
Can anyone confirm this works or mktplace really changed policy and has nothing to do with xbox live?!

This sounds really interesting, please someone to test and report if this works. Regards

Are your Live account registered as an U.S. account too? Otherwise I don't think that you shouldn't have been able to even download free Apps. To register an account in another country is the "official" workaround, the problem is to get a creditcard validated since they seem to check which country it's registered in nowadays.

Nop.
Tried to register my credit card using the same profile that I've used with my PSN account (wich works perfectly). But here, when I try to register my credit card, it gives me error.
It's annoying; I need to buy some apps. That is annoying and non sense.

nop. thats the point i didn't registered any credit card on my live account. I can't... like any other person living in unsupported country. What i did was making my xbox account gold (which happens to be the same US live ID i use for wp7) and voilà! xbox website doesn't check your location, you can use your normal credit card and input any US address to become gold.
After this step they don't ask for a credit card in my live account anymore, it uses the one i have in my xbox account. Since then I'm able to buy apps.
in resume:
1. Get your US live account and register/convert it on xbox live at www.xbox.com. (The liveid must be the same primary account you use on wp7)
2. Go gold using the US page ($9.99/mo if i recall). (Will ask you for a credit card)
3. Try to buy something in wp7 marketplace.
That's what i did and surprisingly worked for me.

also make sure you are in /en-us at xbox.com. Check the address bar. Force en-US if it redirects to your country.

Is here anyone who tested this and can say its woking?

Please somebody else has tried this? I need to know.

Yes, I tried myself some minutes ago and this is BS, doesn't work.

damn...maybe i was lucky. My xbox subscription expired but i still have my credit card on their site and i have full access to marketplace. Bought 7 apps so far.

Lucky. Here didn't work.

Zune Pass Australia

So Zune pass finally have came to Australia and i am not to sure how to get it to work on my phone. I am able to transfer music from Zune to my WP7 and it plays fine but when i open Music + Video App on my WP7 there is no zune option to search.
On there site it says if you go to new and click zune it works but it simply takes me to a webpage. Anyhelp would be great.

Same with me. I have no trace of it on my phone yet

Guys, it took us Canada guys a week for it to show up. Hold up there and it'll show eventually.

Same deal here, no Zune marketplace on Omnia7 (Optus) even though I have a Zune Pass.

You need to try this method by Chris Walsh.
If it works dont forget to thank me

From the looks of it it seems to be for the Zune desktop client but not for phones?

Ah yes. Forgot to mention. On Phone it will be almost impossible unless somebody is really good with Registry stuff

Still no Zune Pass on my phone. I assume it will come eventually i wonder if we will now have access to the music search function in bing ? P.S who is trying the free 14 day trial as well ?

Just saw this from @ZuneSupport on Twitter:
The marketplace may not show up right away on your WP7. Let us know if it doesn't show up by this time next week. ^SM

You can get most of the new Zune features by doing a hard reset. Unfortunately though, it doesn't look like Bing Audio works just yet (it does when you access Bing for the first time, but exiting and entering the app again the music icon will disappear).
If you're willing to reinstall your apps, resync your music and start your games again then go for gold.

I confirm this works. I just reset my WP7 (HTC Mozart). It took a couple of minutes but the music marketplace is now available on my device. I am using Telstra Prepaid.

I have had a Zune pass for years in Australia using the US address trick and setting the computer to location US. I have a hotmail email address that is registered to the US and now that Zune pass has finally come to Australia I would like to use it here....... the question is can I transfer my details to australia as I have purchased heaps of apps under the US windows lie account? If I use my Australian windows live account I will have to buy all the apps again. Has anyone been able to transfer purchases to another live account.
What if you moved from the US to Australia, would you have to loose all the purchased music and apps?

Why not keep your old one? I mean the $15 music pass you get to keep 10 songs don't you?

I had already changed my plan to the new one as I never used my free songs. I have paid up for a year on the US zune pass so its not an option to restart again in Australia.

I found a little info on we should see market place on our phones. Should be 24 - 48 hours from the 16 Nov

I did a hard reset and it all works bing music and all

I talked to Microsoft and they said there was no way to change regions. So I cancelled my Zune subscription and they credited the remaining two months and said I will not be charged for the year subscription that was order as the zune pass has been cancelled.
I have created a new Zune pass for Australia and I have to reset my WP7 phones and enter the new Australian windows live on startup and I loose all the bought apps that I bought on the US Live ID. Microsoft said that they would ask the senior team to look into giving me a credit on all the apps I bought on the US Live ID, I will let you know if that happens.
