I think its due to your internet provider blocking google or sth. Try Dns Changer, choose Level 3 DNS then force stop Play Store, run it again. It may help.

No.i am using wifi. there are many android devices in my house including tabs and nexus. those devices are not facing these problems

I think ur hox has a virus. Try avast from market.

I have also a problem with Play Store. On AOKP CM10 it doesn't show all compatible apps. Why? It shows on Sense.

Complete ICS App Collections for Android 2.2+

The Ice cream Sandwich has a really mind blowing UI, Google tried to modify almost all system apps.
Here is some original app collections, which really works for Gingerbread & other older versions.
The Apps Collections
Android Market 3.2.0
Google Music 4.0.1
Google Maps 5.11.0
Street View 1.7.0.4
Google+ 2.0.0
Just install like a normal app. Will be updated as soon as more apps available.
If anyone has problems installing market 3.2.0, try this post. This may be helpful to you.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1297040
Note : There may be updated versions of the apps listed, but this is just a collection from Galaxy Nexus.
Any hope for the launcher? Or the browser? Or Somthing else interesting....
are those install APK, or just copy and replace over old APK ?
Market and Music installed ok.
Not having any luck with Maps and Street View. Do they even have any significant changes?
Maps is not 5.10.2
It's the ownhere/Brut.all 5.10.1 mod of the maps...

Thx. But the market not works on HTC Wildfire S.
Start the install and then:
"application not installed"
What is the problem ? :|
(This works only whit root -ed phones? )
Thanks you very much !
But I have the same prob than zoltank but for Music, Market et Google+ =/
It's not the first time i install the three but here, everytime "app not installed" and my phone is rooted so it's not that =/
Any ideas ?
try uninstalling the old apps before installing the new ones
Too bad no =(
Uninstall the Market, i came back on the 1st version on the Nexus but it's the same, now the update roll on and i'm again with 3.1.5.
No prob, that will coming in time =)
Thank you !
i was able to install everything except Market 3.2
i uninstalled the old one and wiped cache, kelvin, etc...
any ideas?
solved
rebooted the phone
then i was able to install
now that it's installed, i get Force Close every time i try to install something from market
going back to 3.1.5
Hi, if you are having trouble installing the market try this. Its what I did to get it working on my o2x
You will need root explorer

Market doesn't work on Galaxy S Plus
Thanks for these
Market works perfectly on rooted Flyer. The tiles fill out the screen nicer than 3.1.5. No force close issues. On edit: it drops an error when trying to get a non-free app....
G+ breaks the People (htccontacts.apk) app.
Music installs, but I use the HTC one so not much testing after install.
Maps, untested.
Street view, untested.
---
On edit: Maps installs and works. Street view errors on install.
G+ app works perfectly on stock N1 on 2.3.6, no adverse side effects. Been using it since it originally leaked a couple-ish weeks ago.

Hint for at least us Moto Blur users if you install the G+ apk then your contacts will force close if you try to open up a contacts info

My guess is the ones already in the first post are the only ones that are gonna install on gingerbread. You can take all the apps from the galaxy nexus dump, put them in a folder on your sdcard, and browse to it with root explorer. you'll see the only ones that have none default icons are the ones in the first post. the ones with app icons are the only ones that actually install. all other give parsing errors since you need ICS to install them.

Hey i came across a few apps that my friends had on there android that i wanted i searched Google play and i couldn't find it, after some research i came to the conclusion that my device Desire HD may be app restricted due to certain apps having compatibility issues and what not. So i cant see them in google store.
I researched and found a few so called "fixes" that i tired to no avail
i edited the build prop
i installed a "modded" google play
No luck, ive searched the net and im lost for any other way around it, so ive started this thread
My setup

What DPI (LCD Density) are you using? If you changed it from the default of 240 that often causes problems with the Market. If you are not running at 240 then you should try this
clear the market data and cache
set the density back to 240 (i.e. edit system/build_prop to have ro.sf.lcd_density=240)
reboot
use the Market to update everything (hopefully it works)
set your density back to what you want
reboot
Another issue could be the country you live in. For example, Google prevents Taiwan users from accessing paid apps. You can solve this by using Market Enabler, but you still need to do be at 240 DPI.
Hey thanks for the reply!
I've looked at my DPI in my build prop, it's already at 240 so I haven't touched that
And I've used market unlocked set it to US,
Its crazy I did everything!!, I forgot to mention that I tried the above techniques already
sorry no avail there
Any other ideas?
It seems just impossible for me??
If you are trying to get an app that Google doesn't want you to have in your country then faking your country won't help if you have to log into your Google account to get it.
The only other thing i can think of is to use another store like SlideMe or AppBrain. I have to use SlideMe to get 4Ext for example.

Hey, I tried appbrain, it shows the app I'm after!!!
When I press install takes me to Google play, and I get incompatible error, and I cant install
Seems weird my tones fully rooted, s-off and all, and I can't mod this, there has got to be a way.
Thanks for your help!!

Yes, if a different market redirects you to Google then it won't help. Try SlideMe.org, it seems to be completely separate from Google, but I've only used it for 4Ext so far.
Hey thanks for ur reply, i downloaded the app i want useing chrome and APK Downloader
And guess what the so called "incompatible" app works!!, I just want the convenience of every app on Google play!
Thank you!

device suddenly incompatible with a bunch of apps

Hi guys,
Weird thing happened today, I was checking the Play store app for updates, there were about 10 of them.
I didn't update anything at the time.
About 10-20 minutes later I check again and I only see 3 updates available... when I search for those missing updates on the play store, the apps don't even come up. When I look on the play store on the PC, I see that all those apps (which are all already installed, from the play store) as being incompatible with my device... both free and paid apps.
I rebooted, cleared cache/davlik, but still the same..
do you know what went wrong, and what I can do?
Perhaps they're not compatible with 4.2.1 yet?

nah that's not it, I mean I was seeing an update for Beautiful widgets, which I have been using since 4.2 and when I check now there is no update, I can't find the app on the play store, and on PC it says it's incompatible... and eventhough it's installed on my phone, it doesn't show in the list of installed apps in the play store app. Yet I can still access the widgets and add more to my screen...

I am on Paranoid Android, I was on 720px / 220 dpi (for a very long time, and never had problems), the first thing I did was reset everything back to default. Still no go
BW is running fine on my GNex, running a custom build of MoDaCo's MCR - all stock values, of course!
well in the end there was an update to my ROM so just dirty flashed along with gapps and it seems back to normal.. weird what happened, but oh well.
Thanks for the help guys

[Q] low fps on PvZ 2

Anyone installed Plants vs Zombies 2? It doesn't hang/FC but runs with low FPS.
I'm using X-Gamer+LuPuS and HD games like real racing 3, bladeslinger, MC4, Nova 3, Gangstar Vegas runs perfect. So I think it isn't in the RAM problem.
Should I upgrade to JB? I tried CF3D but no effect.
What should I do?
Thanks in advance.

hey got it now. I installed before version 1.4, which is third party because PvZ 2 wasn't incompatible in Play Store before. EA now made PvZ 2 compatible to arc (currently version 1.5). Smooth gameplay for now. My data was lost though. :crying:
Excelent news!!!
Thanks, i was about to unnistall it because of the slowness.
Edit: Still cannot install from play store (v1.5.25), how do you do it?

weird. If you search in Play Store but none was found, it is incompatible. I just searched the app, then install.
possibilities may be it isn't available in your country. What was exactly the problem?

Yep. It is needed. apps from google play will not 'overwrite' third party apps. But, i lost my data.
If /sdcard/Android/data/com.ea.game.pvz2_row is still present after you uninstall v1.4, delete it. I got a bug in 3rd mission that i cant plant peashooter when i tried to retain the data.

This is what i did:
1 Made a backup of the data
2 Erase Data and Unninstall the app
3 Erase the obbs
4 Reset and wipe dalvik and cache
5 Erase Data and cache of the play store
Still no use, its says incompatible...
Im going to download it from "another place" and see if it really improve the speed.
___________________
Yep, that version 1.5.252752 really improves the speed!!!
It not perfect (some lags occationally) but comparing it to the old one it is really good.
Still wondering why i cant install it directly from google...
Bump!
There is a new version: 1.6.257161
Does anyone feel an improvement?
