Hi all, i'd like to introduce my free app Market Unlocker to you.
It's similar to MarketEnabler which let you access paid apps in Android Market, but add funny functions as
1. Support Android Market 3.4
2. Support download & buy paid app in Amazon Appstore outside USA.
As you might have known, android market and amazone appstore will stop you from downloading and tell you that it's not supported in your region. Why? Because the server's checking your ip address countries as well as your provider. For amazon users registered with us credit card and billing address, it's frustrated when you're not in usa.
Market Unlocker will force visiting Market and Appstore via a proxy, that makes traffic looks like from USA. Unlimited access any more.
Find out more details in Android Market by search "Market Unlocker". I also attached an apk, but check out from android market is still recommended.
Believe it will help you.
Looks promising. It is a [ROOT required + Acquire IMEI] app.
But I cannot find a working US proxy yet to test its function (download apps from Amazon). What a pity.
getting a working USA proxy is hard
Pick up where to get working proxy in Q&A of Android market app descriptions. Google also...

Works great on my SGS2.
However, I tried it on the alpha ICS roms. (from samsung). It could not get su access and force closed. Might be about my setup though.
Does not work on CM9 alphas too.
Is it an ICS problem?
Hmm tried on nook color with cm9 preview and the market change works, yet the proxy setting says "invalid ip address or port number"
Thanks, i will try

Hi, thanks for your work.
Currently I try to download the GMail App, because the App isn't in the german Market.
I was able to fake the provider to Verizon USA and configured a proxy I found in the web. But the GMail App isn't available yet.
What went wrong?
The proxy??
could not make it work.
I bought the Pro version, got a proxy configured automatically and managed managed to buy and install fifa12 from the US market using these steps:
1. Turn on flight mode
2. Enable Market Unlocker and auto unlock
3. Got to system Setting => Applications => Manage applications => All => Market, and click “Clear data”
4. Reboot phone
5. Turn on Wifi/3G
6. Wait google service sync-up completed or refresh in Gmail.
7. Open Market Unlocker, enable proxy
8. Open Google Play. Buy your apps.
Turn off flight mode.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
My question is this, if the device is rebooted with proxy off or flight mode is enabled and disabled, do we still need to do the above steps to be able to buy apps from the US market?
works good on my sgs
is it just me or does this app no longer work ?
for example enable it then use with or without proxy and i still can't download or use google wallet, whereas before i could.
Something has changed...

I ran into a problem with the recent update to the Google Text-To-Speech app.
I was testing out and trying to decide between the new high quality US and UK English voices. Somehow my default language for speech got locked into UK English: I can no longer change it to anything else, even though my default device language is US English and I have downloaded both the low and high quality US English voices.
See my screenshots - despite me changing my chosen language to US English in the Google Text-to-speech Engine settings in the 1st screenshot, once I hit the back button (or exit via the home / recent apps buttons), my default language reverts to UK English as per the 2nd screenshot.
Is there any system file I can edit to change this absurd behaviour? I'm rooted and willing to get my hands dirty...
UPDATE:
I played around with settings and managed to resolve the problem.
Clearing data from / un- and re-installing the app / restoring data from another device didn't work - what did work was choosing another default device language (NOT the voice language under Text-to-speech output). This somehow released the "lock" on UK speech and allowed me to choose US instead. I then reverted the default device language to US English.
All is now good in the world :victory:
Trying going to Google Text-to-speech or Google TTS, whichever one it is, in the app settings and clear data.

That was one of the first things I tried, but it didn't help.
Anyway I managed to resolve the problem already. Gonna update the OP.

Hi,
I just flashed the nexus 5 official image for android 6.0; I have used adb and fastboot and I flashed everything but the userdata.img (as I did with all previous updates). Everything looks fine with the exception of google now on tap: if I long press the home "button" it only takes me to the regular google now page. The google app is version 5.3 (which is supposed to enable on tap), I tried both google now launcher and nova, but the result is always the same, standard google now page with no content relevant to the page/app I was in.
Is it expected ? do i have to enable it somehow ?
thanks
bye

It only works with system language set to English. You then have to enable it under Settings - Google - Search and Now. You'll find a toggle there for Now On Tap, which isn't there with the system language set to anything other than English.
I posted about it on r/Nexus5 this morning, too.
Thanks, that worked.
Too bad on tap is not available for all other languages ...
bye

Google Now On Tap doesn't work if you have it set on your Google Apps account. If you use/switch to your gmail account (and set it on english language) the feature does work. Hopefully this feature is made available to those of us on google apps account soon! The on tap feature is pretty neat.
The point is that the limitations on languages and accounts are not exactly advertised; either they are going to be fixed soon or google is hiding them behind the carpet ...
My system language is set to English (US), but the now on tap toggle goes back to off as soon as I press on Get Started.
mine does the same, I'm on US English but the now on tap toggle goes back to off as soon as I press on Get Started.
Hi all.
I have just bought a Gear S3 in India. Everything works perfectly apart from the one thing that the galaxy apps store is partially in Hindi.
I have a Oneplus 3. I have reinstalled all the apps 3 times but no change. I have also tried to use a different samsung account but that doesn't work either.
I have also contacted the samsung service center and also called the support center but they are also clueless. Is there any way to change it to english completely?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
I had this issue in Vietnam. Unfortunately it seems that the Galaxy App Store sets its language based on the location of your Sim Card. When I came back to Australia and registered on an Australian network, it fixed itself and is in English.
Interestingly, when roaming in Singapore, the language remained Vietnamese, so I think you can't be roaming for it to get the language to change.
I have the same issue with my LG G3.
Unable to change the language from Hindi. Please reply if you have found an option to change the language to English.

I have talked to their customer care numerous times as well as visited their smart cafes but they still appear to be clueless about this. Interestingly this problem does not occur when connected to samsung phones so that's why I assume it is not a high priority for them.
You can google "market enabler", install it and change SIM region to something like [us] T-Mobile
When try to open Apps Store again.
xda link for enabler
Is it support hindi sms
So i am not in usa but i want to install some apps available only for usa. I know i can download apk directly but instead of that i want my android to set as USA region. I am using samsung note 9 i tried different tutorials of changing region in google play store but that doesnt work. So my question is if i factory reset my phone and then i want to create new gmail and install everything fresh how i make sure that my region will be usa?
SOLVED I GAVE IT INTERNET WHERE VPN WAS ALREADY ACTIVATED (WINDOWS HOTSPOT WITH VPN SHARING) AND SET WHOLE NEW GOOGLE ACCOUNT AFTER RESETTING PHONE
Use a VPN and disable location access for Google Play Services.
