Hi, Ive done my share of ROM switching recently and one problem i have is with restoring in-app downloads on a new ROM. Games like Shadowgun keep asking me to redownload the inapp game files 250 even though i had done that on another ROM and im sure the file is still saved somewhere on my sd because i never removed it. I Dont want to redownload because i pay a lot for the extra gb i download from my home connection.
another game, real racing asks me to buy the app even though i had done so before on the absolution rom. I pressed the buy game button from the app to see what will happen and it just linked to a page in the playstore that eventually told me what i already knew ... that i had already bought the app. so i go back to the game hoping the issue is solved and instead i still can not continue the game because it thinks i have to buy it. so. .. I'm stuck. .. can't play without buying and can't buy it again ( not saying that i want to or should have to) because it says i already bought it :s

So I loaded CM7 (Nightly) onto my phone. I want to make a Titanium backup to load a new market app, so I went to go buy Titanium (I had the free version and want to support the dev). But when I went to make payment, the option to Bill to account was grayed off, odd. So I tried it on a few new apps... still nothing. Hmmmm, lets try a reboot... still nothing. I can't figure this out. Now, before CM7, I could bill things to my account, so could it be a CM7 issue?
Thanks in advance for reply.
Edit #1: I went to settings > applications > all aps > market. I wiped the data, and now it's not even an option... I think I got myself deeper into a problem....
Any apps that are in foreign currency aren't able to be billed to your account which TB Pro is. Others apps in US currency shouldnt be a problem.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Tha troof, this man speaks it.
I am having a similar issue, but i have not tried it with foreign currency apps. Just us ones. Everytime i have tried to download something it just hangs and then force closes on me. I am stock currently trying to root too.
Well I checked that, went to a $ app and it still isn't an option...

Do you have a purchase / direct bill blocker setup on your line on the at&t account... this would stop market purchases from going through.
I have this problem also.. when to check my account with google. says att has expired...
Well its working on the new market with cm7 that has been ninjafied. Though you still need a credit card for apps in a different currency as said above.
dude you live right next door. ( well not really next door, but bout 40 miles or so away.. )
Have you used any mods to change the branding? If your phone is branded as a Desire HD and AT&T apps don't show up in the market then flashing a mod to change it to an Inspire 4g might help. I use Inspiremod0.5 with CM7 nightlies. Maybe you should check it out in the Dev section.
Im running cm7.1.0 rl and its branded desire hd and lets me bill to my acct. If it wont let you its because you must have a purchase blocker on. Try buying widgetlocker or rom manager paid edition. They are u.s. Apps. Also just because it shows u.s. Currency when you see the app it doesnt always mean its in u.s. When u go to bill to acct. I had the same problem then realized I was just overlooking those things

Ok, I've searched for two days straight now and I hate to open another MC3 thread but I keep finding the same solution to the problem which does not resolve it for me(editing the build.prop).
Has ANYONE gotten Gameloft's Modern Combat 3 to work on their SGS2SR? I've edited my build.prop 3 ways from Sunday and it hasn't changed a thing. I called Gameloft and the guy said it was compatible with the phone and it should be working, and sent me a new copy, still didn't work. I refuse to believe that it works perfectly on a SGS2 but not the Skyrocket, there has to be a way! I've heard people running non-stock roms run it fine, so what can I do to my stock rom to make it work?
I couldn't get it to run either. However, you can go to some apk sites that will tell you how to make it work. I believe it requires you to root your phone tho. If I remember right they use root explorer to change some stuff. Good luck I just gave up with gameloft on this phone. EA games work great.

Yes they all say to edit the build.prop, which I already did as many different ways and I can figure. Nothing has changed a thing.. Trying to find out what is different in other roms vs stock rom that lets them play the game and not me. I have a LOT of other gameloft games that work fine, including MC2..
It is now available in the new market. At least a version of mw3.

I had it installed and working from a previous build.prop edit, but now its showing In the market with no edit, installing and running flawlessly on SkyIcecream
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk
I tried the new version(on stock, not icecream) and it didnt work..
But my dumba** figured out what I was doing wrong.. It took me all that searching around to figure out that the build.prop edit requires a reboot after you edit it. Not one of the forums mentioned that and for some reason I couldn't think of the most simple solution on my own..
Soooo anyone wanting MC3 to work, edit your build.prop to look like a HTC Desire HD(theres a million and one threads already on how to do so), mount as R/O, then REBOOT. Works like a charm.
Saws the Toys R Us Tabeo in the news this morning. Might be worth $149 so I don't have to fight with my kids over my TF101 or GN.
Just wondering if we would be able to get the full Google Market.

Not out of the box at least, as it's listed as saying, "Over 6,000 free downloadable apps available in the Tabeo Store." Hopefully they will be smart and make the device "modder friendly." Be interesting for this holiday as I may get my 3 year old a tablet device and it'll be an interesting debate between this and the Nabi 2
skip it and get the nabi 2, specs like the nexus 7 and only 200 bucks. rather than getting a single core crapbox might as well drop the extra 50 and get a solid tablet for them to use.
Thanks for the tip shabby. I had never heard of the nabi until today. Much less the Nabi 2. It looks pretty impressive and all the reviews say it is solid and can take some abuse. A little concerned about only having 500 apps in the AppZone 2.0.
Typically one of my deciding factors when picking a phone/tablet is the development community. Unfortunately for the Nabi that doesn't appear to be too large. Of course for my kids all I really need to root and Play store. The day my 5 year old ask me to install CM I will buy her an N7.
actually if you watch the videos on it, there is a "mommy mode" where it kicks ya into full on ICS from there you can choose what apps they have access to, so asdie from if you cnat get the market in there (dont think its been rooted yet) you can always sideload em and then grant access for your kid
i really wanna get one for my daughter due to similar specs to the n7 (slightly lower screen res, but you gain microsd slot as well as hdmi out)
I'm so used to rooting everything as soon as I get it I didn't even think of the obvious solution of side loading.
I will probably being buying two of these for Christmas. One for my 5 yr old and one for my 2 yr old. I can only imagine the fights if I only bought one.
EDIT: Buying the Nabi 2 that is. Tabeo went from kind of cool to ehh in 5 posts. Well actually in 3 posts.
Before getting one read this very good article.
I certainly wouldn't get a Tabeo after reading that.

You didn't ruin anything. You made me a more informed consumer.
Even though this seems like a dead thread, I wanted to add my opinion for future readers...yes the Tabeo doesn't have the specs of some other tablets out there but it does perform well enough with games/apps for kids in the 2-6yr age range...and if you have multiple kids you can get 3 Tabeo's for the price of 1 or 2 of other options...if you have multiple kids & don't want them fighting over a single great tablet or even two decent ones, this thing is worth getting to appease all your kids at once this Christmas and then upgrading each kid in a few years if tablets are still around and we haven't moved on to google eyes or some other gadget...plus it has a camera that works well with Skype which grandparents are starting to love when they can't see the kids on a regular basis...so if you're on a budget & satisfy 3 or more kids at once...there are more then a few good reasons to get this

well i made the mistake of buying this tabeo tablet.. i dont have the receipt anymore is there any way i can root this??? i seriously need help!!
My daughter got the tabeo as a Xmas gift so I really need to root this as well. I dont want to install custom Rom like CM10 or anything even if I could, because I guess she would lose tabeo store but root access is still needed. Any ideas? Can someone get the FW to unpack & mod Kernel or something?
Edit...After some thought I now realize that they would never release this firmware so getting Root is all I am left with. I just did the "so-called" update from HERE and it performs the update after it reboots to the "Vimicro vortex nand recovery". Has anyone managed to use this recovery for anything other than the Tabeo Update? Maybe this recovery can be hijacked or modified to root(or for other purposes)? I am still hoping to get a receipt for this and grab a Nabi2 asap, but until then Im hoping for a way to get root, Supercharge, & to run some scripts to optimize(basically root:laugh It would help to add init.d tweaks, but I dont think its possible on stock rom/FW even with root access. Last thought: Maybe someone could beg a Nabi Dev(Nabi 2 Tablet for Kids Gets Root, Recovery, and Gapps
) for help to root this much inferior tablet?

I think this Tabeo Tablet is recalled now because after anyone does the update that Toys r us has put out the screen goes black never to turn on again. I returned my daughters on a second try, because they tried to say I had opened it and needed to exchange(not refund). I called Customer Service and put complaints and got apologies. If anyone still has TABEO... RETURN IT ASAP. It will break and after 90 days(toys r us extended 45 day return policy) you may stuck with a bricked tablet.*Besides it sucks. Get the Nabi 2 like someone else said.:thumbup:

Can you give more details as to how you got the Play Store working.
Which version of the Play Store? Does it have to be rooted to get the Play Store working? Links and steps please. I have the Tabeo e2.
UPDATE: SOLVED
hi synergeticink, could you tell me how you could flash gapps, i try to flash it with FG but nothing happens after reboot, and before flashing gapps it says not a valid flashable zip, any ideas?

Put the gapps in your internal memory but don't put them in any folders. Second, download and install the Flash Gordon app, put it in your internal memory and then use your file explorer app that comes with the device to find it and install it. No go online and find the "BusyBox" app. Install it the same way. You must be rooted. open busybox, select "install", once its done swipe all the way to the far left screen in busybox where it asks about "Applet Manager", install that as well. Reboot the device. Once its booted up, open Flash Gordon, select "file search" button, not sure what its called since I don't have it with me right now, then find and select the gapps zip file. If it gives you the invalid message, go back to the file explorer, select and hold on the gapps zip file and change the name to one character long like "G" and then try again. If you can't, change it on the computer and move it back. Something to keep in mind, Flash Gordon will take forever to unzip the gapps file, so if it just flashes and thats it that means it didn't work. If this happens, reboot, install both modes on busybox again, and then try flash gordon again. When flash gordon works and you see it take forever to unzip, flash the gapps and reboot, you should be set. I am going to make a tutorial and post it online tonight for everyone. Hope this helps

No worries, took me forever to figure out that I need busybox. Had to look at the code for Flash Gordon to figure it out. Let me know if it works for you
Since I got it last week it constantly says rs_9104_v20 stopped working. I went into apps all i see is rs_9104_v30. Not that i know what either is lol. I tried resetting to factory settings still does same thing. It also won't play my family guy game keeps showing peter with something about butt scratcher and incomplete wipe lol. Should I just send it back? thanks sorry I'm a noob when it comes to tablets and such.

Hey, I just noticed your thread while trying to find out some info about this same app you're having trouble with. Does your tablet happen to be an Azpen A727?? I noticed that this rs.... program is associated with these ads that keep popping up in my notifications. Upon further investigation I've found the app is installed in the system partition. You need to be rooted and use Titanium Backup to uninstall it.
My assumption is that it's some crap ad generating program that the manufacturer got paid to bury in the tablet. Funny thing is I have 2 of the same exact tablets and the other one doesn't have any issues! I'm going to freeze it with titanium until I'm sure it won't cause any problems, then I'll dump it.

This app install without telling you anything other apps, like browsers, battery life extender and other crap. I recomend you to uninstall it.
Hey guys, i really need your help. Hope this is the right subforum, but I thought with needed help / a question, I'm pretty ok in here.
So whats the problem... It might sound pretty easy just from the title, it actually isnt..
So what exactly I want access too?
I think you guys all know Pokemon GO... I'm from germany, so I had do take the APK. The problem about this was, my phone is a Galaxy S3, so Android 4.3 cap.
Long story short, i rooted it and flashed cyanogenmod on it, so i have 4.4.4, even changed the Kernel so it can run smooth.
And it did worked out. So the last days i was playing Pokemon go all day long and was having fun.
Now the problem:
Today, Pokemon GO came out to the Android App Store, and I want access to the regular download with updated coming in frequently, without installing every update manually (ok to be honest, I think all this took me much more time then I ever would need to download and install all future updates of this game, but I am pretty lazy)..
The App Store just tells me I dont have access to it with my device.. So I googled again for hours..
I used Market Helper and hoped I get access.. nope.. I changed the build.prop so my phone now "is a galaxy s5".. doesnt work either.. and yes, i deteled cache and files frequently, restarted the phone..
So right now I'm desperate and have no idea how to fix this problem. I hoped someone in here has had the same problem or knows how to fix it..
I'm looking forward to your help and thanks for just reading about my problem.
Cheers
I feel your pain.
Having exacty the same problem. Even tried market helper. Btw, I am running the s3 with the newest cyanogen nightly (1 week old) and Android 6.0.1.
Maybe the playstore checks for stuff like available ram, and that is the reason why it is not working. Our phone only has <1GB and the game wants phones with >2GB as far as I know.
