You can use this website to download apps from Google Play (note: there is nothing illegal here, you can only download free apps) and then sideload it.

I've read somewhere that Amazon is also listed as not compatible on the G3. Guess they need to update their compatibility list.

i've tried TomTom Italy and it doesn't work
it starts, download the maps, but the graphics are all messed, too much resolution
skype has got a problem too with the emoticons, the text is fine but the smiley are tiny

I cannot make awesome videos as LG G3 is not in the list of supported devices.

Another app that doesn't work is The Virgin Media TV Anywhere app.

Hi guys. What about iplayer and Sky go apps... Can you successfully download programs and play back on the G3? I use this these apps and don't want to miss out when I change phone. Thanks

I have a workaround for Tomtom. Initially tried adjusting the resolution and DPI, though that messed up launching built in apps and Swiftkey goes all funny (needs a reboot to work again after restoring default settings), so gave up on that idea.
I am using TomTom Europe. Issue is a black screen on 2d and 3d views. Contacted TomTom who advise it wont work above 1080x1920 with no ETA for a QHD release
One workaround is to add TomTom to the split screen apps, accessible by pressing and holding the Back button.
You will need to root to do this. Basically edit the /system/etc/com.lge.splitwindow.default.apps.xml, as per previous LG G Flex article: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2673968
For mine, the app name to add was "com.tomtom.europe"
Tomtom then works OK with about an 80/20 split with another app (such as messages). Is not as accurate with pressing the back button in the app (need to press slightly outside the frame) though the maps appear OK. About to give it my first journey with split screen mode so will see how I get on.

not worried at all just an observation
The scrolling seems very laggy, also it looks like google is trying to save on the amount of ram the app uses by constantly loading and unloading images which really sucks.
The market would be so much smoother if it just loaded all tabs at once and cached the images

Cool, but asphalt 6 doesn't even download cuz it's not optimized for our device. I downloaded Need for speed and it's free but it's just a trial,
That's odd. Asphalt 6 installed fine for me. But NFS was a trial :-(

sending the link download fails. using the qrcode download fails. is it something silly stupid I am doing wrong? (jacking usb now to install)
Thanks Jase, I installed the APK and it works perfectly. Looks like a few good games, others seem like trials. One BIG issue I have with the app, is that it does not seem to show permissions the apps want as you instal them, so you never know. NOT a plus.

When the app is about to be installed, there are permissions being shown. Unfortunately... The permissions down seem to be EVERY SINGLE THING THAT COULD BE ASKED FOR. I don't understand why a ns trial game has to read my text messages, but whatever.
Is there any chance we can get a list if full games on this list? I'm tired of downloading something just for it to be a 3 minute trial.
Trying out this E4GT...
All the cool, fun games seem to be demos...
reply.. having issue also
I'm also having trouble just getting the apk file to download. Everytime I try it just says download unsuccessful. Even tried the QR code and that was also unsuccessful.
I don't have internet at my house right now so i'm not able to download the file to my PC. My phone is rooted and I do have tethering but its really not useful for me right now cuz where I live i'm lucky if I ever get 2 bars on my signal. So without a good signal its hard to tether..
So its there another way for me to be able to download this apk??
Thanks
All downloads went through, but this app kills my battery...i was wondering what kills my battery so quick all of a sudden and i believe this app was involved. So i removed it, and battery is well
I guess it doesn't work on third party roms?

Canadian Gnex Users, where do you get your music?

Google Music is onlyavailable in the USA. Is there a similar service in Canada?
Thanks
Once you have created an account (do it on your computer thru a proxy), you will be able to use Google Music in Canada. You can't buy music but you can still stream/download for offline use.
There is a guide how to use Google music outside of US here in xda. I followed that guide and using Google music in Korea.

I was able to use proxy very easily. Using Firefox browser, a plugin called "stealthy" is used, and is visible, once installed in the top right corner of your screen. When you want the proxy turned on, click the stealth bomber and it turns green. Want it off? Click it again and it turns red!
I am able to go to google music anytime using this method, and works flawlessly!

You know you only needed a proxy when signing up? After that, you can use Google Music normally without any issues.

Or basically anywhere you would normally get music before Google Music popped onto the scene only a few short months ago. Odd question.
I use Microsoft Zune. Music is generally cheaper than other places and the UI is great. My sister and I buy a Zune pass together. The music is DRM protected, but there are ways around that...

Mainly iTunes but that's due to a lack of options. I always check hmvdigital.ca first though and if it's the same price there, I'll get it from there instead of iTunes. hmvdigital songs are for the most part 320kpbs and are DRM free and you can download them again and again as many times as you want.

Is this still working for you? I have been using the services in Canada without issue until today, now the Music Manager won't upload additional songs. Methinks Google may have caught on.
I use 7digital. They have a Canadian store and an Android app so you can buy right to the phone if you like. The stuff I've purchased has been 320kbps DRM-free. Easy as pie.
I've been using Google music in Canada since it launched with absolutely no issues. I used a program to fake my IP for the invite, as far as I know you no longer need an invite now. Music manager works flawlessly as well, overall the whole setup is beautiful and I love it.

If I use stock 4.1.1 and stock 4.1.2, I can see and install Photoshop Touch.
Anything other than stock, including using CM10 or AOKP roms, then I can see but cannot install Photoshop Touch with a message saying it is incompatible with my rom.
My solution was to install an old apk of the software (found on the web, any will do). Then, since I actually bought the app, it simply proposed me to update through the Store.

I must be doing something wrong. Attempted the same thing, I'm not rooted nor do I currently wish to be (long story there, I'll leave my Xoom to be the rooted one for now) but as it stands, this did not work for me.
Upon installation on 4.1.2, the market recognized Adobe Proto and Adobe Ideas were installed. I cannot get these to update via the store since they are still seen as incompatible with my Nexus 7. Great...
And I paid for those two.
[edit]
Just had an email response from Google Play regarding the purchase of the app and subsequently being unable to reinstall after a factory reset.
Here is what they wrote:
Hi Stephen,
Thanks for writing back. I do see that you've done a factory data reset. I'm sorry to hear you're still experiencing this issue. Apparently you were able to download the app before but it is correct that the app isn't actually compatible with the Nexus 7.
If you're still not able to find a certain app, please keep in mind apps that aren’t compatible with your device are hidden when you search for them on Google Play. Developers of Android apps can choose to filter devices based on a variety of criteria, including Android OS version, carrier, location, or even screen size. According to our records, Adobe Photoshop Touch is incompatible with your device because it doesn't match the developer's specifications on for the device's screen density.
Because you were able to purchase this app and are now unable to use it, I've gone ahead and filed this refund request on your behalf - you'll receive another email within 14 business days confirming that the request has been processed.
Thanks in advance for your patience, and if you have additional questions or if you don't receive a second email with this confirmation, please let me know.
Regards,
Eddie

Guess that answers one question, however I still can't understand how I was able to purchase it directly from Google Play. The app itself runs perfect on the N7, so maybe it's now up to Adobe to support our device....

I spent two+ hours last night trying to spoof my N7 as various compatible tablets so I could download it, and succeeded only in soft-bricking (fixed by reflashing OTA).
It looks like Google has closed some/all of the loopholes that used to allow you to fool the store. Nothing I tried worked.
with my current rom i am able to buy the app on the store. my rom is aosp based. no tweeks to the market that i know of. no build prompt changes. no idea what im doing right but it is not hidden or unavailable in any way for me
I'm on stock 4.2.1 and it shows up for me. 9.99

Yea they just recently updated it make it officially work on the N7. It's totally worth the money btw, Ive been using it since it was released and now that it can edit images up to 12mp it's SUPER useful.

Anyone tried to add DNS record to hosts file to load Amazon Prime Instant Video?
Hi, I use the method provide by unlocator(d0t)com (set DNS server to their one).
Then use WireShark to capture DNS resolve packet, and found that some stream servers of Amazon is point to IP that is not the same as IP when resolved by Google DNS server. Hosts file (replace (d0t)):
---------------------------------------------------------
dl(d0t)dropboxusercontent(d0t)com/u/82869805/hosts
-------------------------------------------------------------
After add these to my /etc/hosts, I set DNS server to Google and reboot my computer. It works.
May be you got problem with flash player and have to reinstall Adobe Flash Player or Silver Light to play video -> this guide (replace (d0t)): www(d0t)howtogeek(d0t)com/204319/how-to-watch-amazon-instant-video-on-linux/
And you need to re-update your IP on Unlocator(d0t)com (you need to register a free account on Unlocator(d0t)com, and login to update your IP to Unlocator(d0t)com) anytime your IP provided by ISP changed, this is MUST.
I'm not sure if it works for others.
