I think that works the same way it does on computers. Depending on your network.
So maybe there's a similar trick to bypass this as you can do with a computer using a proxy.

UPDATE : Just had a look on Google and didn't find anything related to your specific problem but there are plenty of people having troubles with the market and the non-availability of some apps in their country. Some managed to solve this using a US-based VPN. Maybe you should try that.
Could try a proxy

The MoreLocale 2 app (available in the Play store) does exactly what you're looking for. I needed it to change from US(canada) to US(us) for the Amazon music app.
I am trying to update an app that I purchased a few months ago (Where's My Water) on the newest ICS leaked ROM. When I go to the market and try to download it, it says purchased, and when I click download, I get an error message saying "the download of 'Where's my Water' was declined because you haven't purchased it."
I tried uninstalling because I assumed there might have been an issue when i restored the app from Titanium Backup but even after uninstalling I get the same error message.
Any ideas?
I'm guessing you didn't purchase it on Androids Marketplace but perhaps on Amazon? I ran into a similar issue and that;s what it was.
I bought it from the android market

Read somewhere that during he 10cent deals if you did not receive an email concerning the purchase you didn't purchase it. I am in the same boat.

did you try and install it from the web?

This wasn't a part of the 10c deal. I paid 99 cents for this.

I tried installing it from the web. It says purchased on there, when I sent it to my phone, nothing happens.
I bought one game (the $6.99 N.O.V.A. 2) and it does the same damn thing. I guess its karma for all of the apps I got by other means

i have had this happen to me on several items i purchased, did everything them back, then i finally said screw it and got them "from other means"
If you have multiple Gmail accounts on your device make sure your signed into the one that purchased it from the market.
One thing you can try is to delete the app whether it be through TB or not and then reboot the phone. After startup then try installing. Hope this helps.
Try 4shared or aptoide.. you'll find your app..

I was having this same issue too, got in touch with Google, and after them telling me how to do things I already knew, and explain how if you don't purchase an application you can't download it, I showed them a few pictures and they responded with this:
Thanks for taking the time to contact me today. Have you installed an Android operating system on your device that has not been authorized by your device's manufacturer? I can troubleshoot your issue to the best of my abilities, but please be aware that unauthorized operating systems (custom ROMs) may have limited functionality due to the compatibility of the device. For best results, I recommend using the authorized Android operating system provided by your manufacturer that can be obtained from their website or your carrier.
http://www.samsung.com/us/support/
However, I realize you may have browsed around a bit in our help center and tried a few troubleshooting steps already, but please make sure you've done all of the following to resolve the issue:
- Cancel and restart the download(s)
- Reboot your device
- Sign in and out of Google Talk repeatedly to restore connection to our servers:
1. Go to your device’s app launcher, and press the Talk app
2. If you’re already signed in to Talk, press Menu, and then touch Sign out
3. Launch Talk again to sign in (if you are unable to sign in, please let me know)
- Clear the cache of the Google Play Store app (Menu > Settings > Applications > Manage applications > All > Play Store > Clear cache)
- Clear the Download Manager cache and data (Menu > Settings > Applications > Manage applications > All > Download manager > Clear cache and Clear data)
- Ensure there is at least 20MB of free space on your device
- Try your download(s) using both WiFi and network (3G/4G) connections
- Try to initiate your download from play.google.com instead of the device
- Ensure firewalls are not blocking access to ports required for Google Play (TCP and UDP 5228)
- Confirm that there is strong connectivity on your device, and contact your mobile service provider if you aren't connected
- Uninstall updates to the Google Play Store app by visiting:
Settings > Applications > Manage Applications, selecting "Play Store" under the "All" tab or filter and touching "Uninstall updates"
If you have any further questions or concerns, or if the issue persists after performing all the troubleshooting steps provided, and reverting back to an authorized version of the Android operating system, please feel free to let me know.
Regards,
The Google Play Support Team

Thanks for writing in and for your patience while I've been taking over your case for [omit]. According to our records, you never purchased the app Root Explorer (File Manager) on Google Play using Google Wallet, which is why it won't let you download the app. If you purchased the app using a different app store or directly from the developer, you'll need to re-download it from that store.

Hi all, i am looking for kint messenger to download for my girlfriend. I use android and she have a samsung s8530. We chat a lot everyday but she use ebbudy which is crap "my opinion"
As we live in mauritius she cant download kint,tried to google a bit to directly download the app but not successfull.
Is there anyone who can give me a link or something to directly download then install it? I would really appreciate some help.

Hello scribbclubber,
You can just change the store from mauritius to any other store France ,USA.. And create an account to the new store and install any application you want.
I'm talking here about samsung kies to install applications.
Hello All...How have you been..!!
This might seem to be a duplicate post, but I thought of sharing the information to collate all the processes to save APKs from the market place as well as to get access to wide range of applications on the play store to which we ACE user don't have access..
Well found two processes...
1. For Custom Rom lovers, it is a regular heck to download all the application from market place after each format.. or get the apks from some third party site... So why not back up all the APKs from Play Store itself...
For that I found an awesome application on XDA called REAL APK LEECHER... which allows one to save the apks straight away to their PC and also scan for any updates..
The steps to do so can be found here..
But now there is a loop hole ... you can only download the apps compatible to your device model (corresponding to the Device ID)..
Now the trick though a stupid one...
Simpler way :: Ask your friend having a high end model to add your gmail ID to his/her device... and then access Play Store for at least once.. Take his/her Device id (using *#*#8255#*#*) You are done.. Remove the account... Register the device id/gmail Acc on APK leecher and access most of the apps..
But your friend might not allow to share his/her device ID, what to do now...
Harder way :: Google for some Random Device ID ... Use some app on the play store to change your device ID... Download at least one app from play store... You can again access all the apks using the above process..
2. Well found another application... This is the best.. though it is not free... is the Device Spoofer app...
Spoof you device to any given model... Download as many apps possible..
These helped me... I guess might help some one else too...
I download apps & each time they get updated, I send them to my another phone using bluetooth file transfer & then save them to pc. Much easier right ?

The process seems to be useful for users like me who have slow & limited data usage plans.. Moreover updates done over PC..
Rest the Device Spoofer is an awesome app.. Now i have access to almost all the apps on play store...

It's nice that you can be linked to apps that your device doesn't support remotely but the process seems to be quite complicated and not everyone has a friend willing to share their gmail stuff...

Thats true enough... But the APK Leecher rocks...
N i would suggest everyone to try out the device snoofer... Simply awesome and easy 2 use...
When in my launcher (lightning) if I get " item is not installed .search Google play, or pick an other app if I click on play store I got "continue to Amazon appstore? This app is trying to open a link with an external market that is not available bla bla.."
is there a Xposed module to prevent this behavior and go direct to Google play? without his warning poping up and preventing to go to Google play

I think that is the same redirection problem that I am also having, because when I was using my Fire Phone with FireOS 3.6.8, all APPs like AppGratis AppsZoom, Always opened a litle floating window, and always gave me the option to select between "Google-Play-Store" and "Amazon APP Store"... But now after the FireOS 4.6.1, I only have the option to select, on the floating window, only the Amazon APP Store.
I hope that there is an APP that could redirect and enable to select and open other APP Stores, not only the Amazon APP Store..
I already post a question in the forum about the same problem, but never got any reply:

This is being discussed in another thread that @ulises.rodriguez mentioned. So have a look there.
And also since this is a question it should be moved to the Q&A forum so if you don't mind I will ask a moderator to move it there. Your chances of getting an answer is better there anyway.
