In-App Purchases Is Not Working At All for The ZE550ML - ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Currently I am using the Zenfone 2, 2GB RAM and 16GB ROM which is ZE550ML.
Unfortunately for this model, all In-App Purchases in all apps are not working at all.
I started to realized about this when one day I wanted to buy a theme from SwiftKey Store, but then it threw an error which was
'SwiftKey Store is not available'. For once I thought it was caused by Google Play Services, so I tried to update the app first.. But as you have expected that doesn't solved anything.
So I begin to experiment on a lot of apps that have IAP. One of them is Kingdom Rush/Frontiers/Origins. Every time I click on the 'buy' button, nothing happened. This also happen to Ampere, when I tried to buy the premium version via IAP, still, nothing happened. It was like the IAP was broken in this ROM.
I hope somebody can clarify this issue, that I am not the ONLY person affected by this bug. Hopefully there will gonna be a fix very soon.

Do you happen to have freedom installed?

No, not at all.. I hate using that thing.. That's why I used IAP..

So, no solution for this problem? Am I the only one affected by this?

[Q] device not compatible with certain apps in market [SOLVED]

I've seen that certain apps in the market say that my device is not compatible with the app. I didn't really think twice about it until today I saw that Google maps is one of those apps. This wasn't the case earlier today.
Has anyone else been having this problem?
What do you think the problem is?

Solved - Reason for issue was due to my changing the DPI for enhanced resolution
I'd like some sort of answer to that too, my phone says that maps is compatible, but Youtube isn't. I tried clearing market data and cache on the off chance that something was goofy there, but it didn't help. It even says "incompatible" when I go to the web version of the market from my computer, and won't let me install.

K, i figured out the problem. Its because i changed the DPI in my build.prop in order to get a better resolution. I guess the apps are compatible with the resolution that i set it to, so it just says that its not compatible with my device.

Restore market link

Hello guys,
My problem is simple. I have tried some apps and games taken "from internet" and now market when try to update it gives me an error. This behaviour is OK but.... If i want to really buy this app to make the update I can't!!
I have tried unistalling it but market always says ne only "download" and i can't make the checkout!
So how can buy and app previously not bought??
Thanks

Have you tried to use Titanium Backup, I have not had this issue, however this app got a few options that could help you. Look into 'Market Tools' you should be able to unlink an app with the market.
I am not 100% it would solve your issues but it might help.

Thanks but this solution not fix the problem.
I have searched here and here I have found that the only solution is to downgrade the market to version before 3.x!! I think is not a good idea but If i want buy an app i can't...
Inviato dal mio Desire HD usando Tapatalk
This is interesting, but I guess there must be a different solution. Have you tried to buy anything with the old market then ? If it works maybe with some reverse engineering it would be possible to know what has changed. Maybe it depends of the protection used to protect the app and what was doing the crack. What about buying the apps using a browser on a computer ? It is not so bad for the users considering they can still use the applications/games however it is not good for the developers (They are losing some potential customers).

I have made my personal fix but I not think is a very good solution. Now I can buy apps but.... If someone can found better solution will be fantastic.
Simply i have made a new Google account and with tb i have detached the cracked apps from updates so now my market notify updates only for really bought apps and free.
When I want to bought cracked app i use my new and clean account.
It's not really bad solution but I really want use only one account...

As a developer myself, I would say stop using cracked apps! Most apps have their free version equivalent available.
And more importantly, most developpers will refund you if you don't like their app, even after that ridiculous 15 minutes test period!
I can understand Google not caring about users using cracked apps, but nevertheless I agree that Google's attitude is often causing problems to app developers!
Like download issues, payment issues, license issues, to name a few... And those 15 minutes makes user get immediate refund if they have any doubts! Whereas the old one day period can give user a chance to figure out how the apps work.
Needless to say I receive daily feedback about purchase and download issues, which should actually be taken care of by Google. They are the distributor after all!
This issue has been fixed in the Google Play Store 3.5.16 update.
http://www.droid-life.com/2012/04/1...for-sideloaded-or-third-party-installed-apps/
Here's the link to download Play Store if it hasn't updated automatically for you yet.

When you press uninstall on a sideloaded app, Play Store notifies you that you haven't purchased the app. So you can buy it now.

Nope, no problems for me. Sucks that you're having problems as it's a pretty awesome game. You tried reinstalling and/or restarting the N7?

the Horn thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1863322
In there I posted; if u have problem with license, just launch the game from within the Play store once or twice, then you can try again with the shortcut. If you install and then goes straight to shortcut, it doesn't work most of the times.
Not sure if that's how the game registered, but that fixed it for me.
Do you have multiple gmail accounts on your device? If yes, make sure you're logged into the account that you bought it with. Should clear things up for you.

Google Play Error

Ever since I got my SIII, I've been having problems with the Play Store. Anytime I go to purchase a paid application, I get the error "Unable to retrieve information from the server [DF-DFERH-01]. Googling this error only shows me a bug that affected the GTalk a few months back. But the even more odd thing is, its starting to happen on my N7 as well. I can download free apps fine. It looks like it's having problems initilizing Google Wallet for the purchase. Wasnt having these problems with my other phone (EVO 4G LTE on Sprint). Is this a known bug with T-Mobiles networks? I've tried it on multiple wireless networks, as well as HSPA. Even had my buddy sitting right next to me try and he could download fine. I'm rooted on CM10 today, but I've tried 3-4 other ROMS with the same problem. Almost positive its tied into my Google account. Did the basic troubleshooting steps such as clearing the Play Store data/cache/uninstalled a Google Play Services update, and re-added my Google account. Is anyone else experiencing this? And if so, is there a known fix?

I did actually. I switched to ParanoidAndroid for a second to see a new build. I screwed around for a few seconds then uninstalled it.

So currently you are running at which dpi? 99 percent of the time market errors are caused by dpi

How would I tell that? It was set to stock when I flashed PA. And I set everything back before I flashed back.
Could also be a problem with your account like you mentioned. I think some people have had problems when having multiple services associated with that account. Maybe create a new account and see if it still happens. Dont know how inconvenient that may be for you.
But if its happening on different roms and devices then its surely the account. Maybe contact google support?

Yeah. That's kind of worst case scenario. I know they're a PITA to get in touch with. That's why I was seeing if there is anyone else with this problem that could possibly help me fix it.

[Q] Recent apps not working!?

Hi everyone. For some reason my recent apps hasn't been working lately. When I open it, it shows no recent apps.. but there should be. If I try a few more times it usually will kick in and show my running apps. It's kinda hit or miss but most of the time miss it used to work just fine. I am rooted but I believe the issue started before I rooted. I don't think I've disabled anything that could affect it either. Anyone else run into this problem? Or any ideas for a solution?
Thanks!
I'm having the same problem. I'm on a D855 16 GB now on v10h eur. I'm rooted right now, but I noticed this issue since I bought it. Does anyone knows how to fix it? It's not the biggest deal but still annoying...

Small update: i just removed some bloatware using the guide on this forum and the problem seems to be solved, no matter how hard i try to make it show again. I will test it a bit more and then, hopefully, confirm this impression.
Awesome that's good news! Can ya point me in the direction of that guide please?

I have the same issue sometimes. Probably a stock launcher bug.

This is the guide. I confirm that the problem "was" gone. Now i'm using apex launcher and it cames back occasionally only with certain apps. With the stock launcher i was not able to reproduce it, no matter how hard i try
suddenly I had this problem
anyone know how to fix it?

Not really fix.
ART is still beta until android L, so it's a valid troubleshooting step.
