Missing apps in ICS play store

I upgraded my A100 to stock ICS　ROM Acer_AV041_A100_1.012.00_WW_GEN1.zip and found many apps are missing from Play Store. If I download them from app store website in browser, it says "incompatible with your device".
Does anyone knows why and is there a solution to this issue?
Thanks a lot!

Did you happen to have a modded build.prop prior to upgrading to the stock ics? By the way .012 is not the stock (if i'm not mistaken) its the last leak prior to the stock....014 IS THE stock...

Thanks for the reply.
I didn't do anything special on build.prop before to .012 rom.
I just flashed to Acer_AV041_A100_1.014.00_WW_GEN1 but the problem (missing apps) still exists.
One example of missing apps is ireader (full version). I can only see ireader (offline). From the other tablet (Nook Color CM9), I can see both versions of ireader.
I also tried to edit build.prop as suggested in this forum to mimic my A100 as A500 in Play Store (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1525964), still no luck.
Can anyone help me out? There are many apps I use heavily but cannot load onto A100.
Thanks

Development?
I'm pretty sure thi isn't development... Sounds alot like a question that needs an answer. If you want to get a better response, you might want to delete this thread and re-post in the correct forum. Also when you get some time, drop by and read forum rules... Jus sayin'

Pretty much correct, dev is for releases of some sort, not questions. Buuuuut since its already here may as well pitch in lol.
Modded build.prop is most common way around it, but you can also side load apps from other sources and install from SD or adb.

help finding apk

I'm trying to get the Constellation Ashford app, but its not supported in the market. Iwas wondering if someone could help provide me with the apk so I can try it on my Nexus 7.
Here's the link for the app.

It looks like no one has the apk. Does anyone know of a method to bypass the unsupported device hurdle in the playstore?

Updated modded play store for GB?

I'm running CM7.2 on my Evo 4g (Gingerbread).
I changed my DPI to 200 and ran into the Playstore app incompatibility problem. I've been using a modded Playstore (version 3.5) and would love to update my Playstore app to the latest version.
In my searches, I've found links to updated modded Playstore apps, but they are all listed for JB, not GB.
1. Does anyone know of an updated modded Playstore app available for download that works on GB?
2. How exactly would I install it? (I usually use TitaniumbackupPro or Astro File Manager when installing apps)
Thank you in advance.

Go to goo.im and search for the latest GApps for GB
Extract that file and find the "PlayStore.apk" file
Put that on your sdcard
Navigate to where you put it using some file manager
Tap the icon for the PlayStore.apk file and it should give you an option to install
Install it
Enjoy life

SO... you're wanting a PlayStore apk that will work with your DPI settings? Or is the above answer what you're looking for?

The above answer was NOT what I was looking for (sorry Cnexus).
I am looking for an updated Playstore APK that will work with my DPI settings (running 200 DPI and want to spoof 240 to the Market). I'd like it to keep the original sig, so I can still make purchases thru the Playstore app. Basically, I want to keep my DPI at 200 and yet still have full Playstore functionality.
I have a modded Google Systems Framework (GSF) downloaded from the "LCD Density Modder Pro" app... does anyone know if that GSF would continue to work with the updated Playstore apps?

I looked into this, just in case some dev was kind enough to put up a new GApps with the DPI mods... a search on goo.im shows that the last GApps for gingerbread was in 2011. Not exactly the most recent.

Real racing 3

I am running cm10.1 and the play store says that the app is incompatible with my phone. Is there a way to download it?

I don't know, man. Are you using the GAPPS posted to the CM10.1 thread? I just installed from the Play Store without any issues.

It's compatible on my device, but you can try this APK. It's non-cracked, original, latest version. You can also find most apks for incompatible games online if you search for them. You can install APKs with an APK installer or something like Root Browser. As long as you install the APK you do not need the data files from the internet, they should install once you run the game. I had to do this with Need For Speed Most Wanted, since upgrading to the OGP made my paid game incompatible.
General note: Real Racing 3 is a free game, the APK is not warez.

S3 Camera App Name

Hey guys,
Can anyone grab me the name of the stock camera app? Should be something like com.samsung.camera.
You can get it with an application called APK Extractor from the Play Store.
I need this info for work, so I would really appreciate it.
FYI: I manage devices via an MDM, built a general profile to allow apps, but forgot that apps have different names across different devices.
The app is enabled under the wrong name for this device and I need the name so I can add it to the MDM.
Thanks a lot!

You mean package name**
It's com.sec.android.app.camera
