Is it possible to get play store to charge bill like with stock phone? Or even better way for free app??

I recently noticed that Tmobile is advertising the option of billing google market content purchases to a users mobile bill. Although I don't really want to do that, it did make me curious as to how it works. Trying to get it to work led me to a question... is there a tmobile specific version of the google market apk?
I am running cyanogen 7 with google market 3.3.11 and I definitely can not see an option to bill a market purchase to my tmobile bill. I only see the options to add to a credit card.
I found this screenshot of google market which shows the tmobile payment option: http://cdn.androidtapp.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/T-Mobile-Carrier-Billing-in-Android-Market.jpg My payment screen looks a lot like that, minus the tmobile options.
If there is a specific tmobile version of the market, If so, how often does that get updated versus the generic version?
I don't actually think that it is a different app, just a different payment method available on some carriers:

That's the question, how does the app know to present the user with the different payment methods? I am on the tmobile network, but the market app seems completely unaware of that.
Your gmail account is synced with the Market, and so is your telephone number. Hence the connection to your T-Mobile account. If you are on a contract and not behind on your payments, you can theoretically bill an app to your monthly statement. This has been option for a long time now. And no, there is no T-Mobile specific Market.

Your SIM has a lot to do with it as well. I believe the Market can tell which SIM card you are using, bringing up that Network's options.

I haven't seen this on my market yet. Looks interesting.

I'm asking me the same question some days before so I went to our T-Mobile Partner in the City. He told me, that I only can pay Apps with my T-Mobile bill, when I have a branded Device, because they modified the Android Market!
i can verify that this option was there since february. And it has worked on all my roms, but they have always been modded htc roms like glite...so dunno maybe it has more to do with the rom.
Hi guys!
I've been using a paid app for a while without having bought it, because unfortunately I couldn't afford spending on apps. But now I do, and I tried to purchase it in the play store, but it is marked as already purchased, and I get and error message whenever I try to download it. Is there a way I can make it forget that I already "purchased" this and buy it again?
EDIT: nevermind, found the solution, just gotta install a 2.x version of Market.
Funny that, google fixed even that

Ok so i have 25$ balance on my google play store account but i cant buy anything from there, it says no compatible device when i try to buy something , i live in serbia and buying from play store isn't supported here so i changed my home address in google settings to US and used a redeem code to get 25$ but i cant buy anything with it i tried using marked enabler and market helper but it didnt work so anyone has a solution for me? I would really appreciate it.
I am really tempted to get this phone since the new pricing and the new unlocked version
but I am getting confuse can I root it without breaking it what is the best way to achieve it? (downgrade)
Do I get all the Google app working if I install Google Service Framework, Google Login Service, Google Play Service, Google Play Store
and how long is the battery life on one charge?

I would advise against it for now... their is a good chance you'll get a phone that can't be downgraded / rooted. I messed mine up and now it's not able to be activated on Amazon.

here in Cyprus where I live, 97% of shops supports NFC payments, but rather than carrying my visa card, I prefer using my phone
I tried setting up google pay from apk mirror and installed it, the app said that my card is not supported (there is not a single bank that supports google pay here)
I created a (.boon contactless payment) which its a virtual card that supports google pay and I was able to set it up but google pay started uninstalling itself from my phone for no reason (even after I was able to add a card on it)
then I realized that I changed device and now I have the s9 (it is not rooted or anything else just yet)
so I went ahead to download Samsung pay! ...... I wasn't able to download it neither from google store or from Samsung store
so I went to download it from apk mirror again and the results are almost the same it doesn't allow itself to connect to the internet expect to show me the promotions and notices
I wasn't able even to connect my PayPal account
is there any alternate app that gonna give me the ability to pay in stores with my phone?
and sorry for my bad English, Thanks!
Barclaycard have their own payment system which uses the NFC it's separate to Google and aamaung
