Hello everyone,
I'm a Google fan and i love to use every Google services, but i'm French, and in France they they take a while to come.
I found a tip and i want to share it with you, it's a way to allow the entire Play Store services on your device.
For this you will need 3 things :
- Be ROOT
- Droid VPN : you can find it on the Play strore or https://www.box.com/s/d5c013a16bc5e1940213
- Market Enabler : https://www.box.com/s/e1cf29986ce037f77d4e
Now Create a Droid VPN account (free) and login (If it does not go into the settings and choose "TCP" as the protocol)
Start Market Enabler then go to "Setting List" and choose an operator like T-MOBILE U.S.
Check the Google Play Store is not already open, and open it!
Once opened you should see the Play Store U.S. and as soon as it is launched you can cut Droid VPN clicking "disconnect" and enjoy the Play Store U.S.!
Warning: You must repeat steps 4 installation whenever you want to use the Play Store U.S. (once used its going very fast).
Edit : - Links for direct downloads of .apk from my Box account added tell me if its works please.
- For Google Play Music PC activation take a look here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30733273#post30733273
Use thank's button if u like this
Cool.
This should be handy if there's a US-exclusive App that I'd like to buy/download.
Wish we didn't have to do these things and it was as polished as Apple's iTunes AppStore.
Hi, why do we need a Droid vpn account ? Can we not just use market enabler? Thanks for your top.

u can use market enable alone but it will just give u the apps of US it will not unlock the services that are not available in your country.
Like you can see in the screenshots in uploaded in France the Music, Magazines and soap services are not available so in I use market enabler alone I can't acces theses services.
Your IP adress (changed by VPN) at the start of Play store says the services you can use then it check your brand (changed by market enabler) to know what content to display.
Hope I help you
I am using market enabler only with no root and it is working find
While I was on gingerbread I had to use vpn connection but after upgrading to ICS and using NoteCore kernel I don't need vpn anymore and just market enabler works perfectly, I can buy applications and so on
Edit: I didn't read the last post before writing my reply, I don't use the services at all that is why I didn't know about the need for vpn

This may sound dumb but with this market ennabler; will it only get the phone recognized as say U.S. by the store,or could you end up with roaming charges if the network sees it as a USA handset? Dumb????
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
No, you should not use roaming because you use your network to use the VPN. Does anyone have sympathy tell me how to embed images directly to the tutorial, not attachments?

Wouldn't work for me on SGN N7000 4.04. The best I got was a connection timeout (repeatedly). I am in Thailand and followed all directions here and when it wasn't working I tried all the various vpn settings without success.

Were u on wifi or on gsm ? Have u taskkilled the Store before using vpn and enabler ?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
did the whole thing , but only market enabler worked .. didn't get Music , books and movies ..
I'm using an edited version of the play store though .. could this have anything to do with it

I tried many things, I force stopped market at one time. I am using wifi which is on a US DNS if that could be a reason. I have tried another tip which was to turn off sync and also to turn off all location settings. Nothing has worked. I have given it up as a lost cause.

Could you tell me wich devices and roms u are using ?

In Italy is the same, no goggle music for us... Unless you don't use a workaround like the one described in the op (I registered using Tor, but it's much the same).
Once you open the music account you can access it also from you pc or phone without using the vpn every time.

It's certainly not in the UK sim free handset (Samsung) market. I have a CPW sourced sim free unit.
I have installed it from the above attached apk, and it seems to work perfectly.
very good app. The only bad thing is that i can't launch Navigon instead of stardard google Navigator
I changed the contents of my /system/csc/sales_code.dat file to XEU and used market enabler to try some different MCC/MNC codes (Meteor was a good one) and Car Home popped up in mine. (Editing this file does much the same as changing your CSC via the link above, but without wiping your device).
I was about to upload it as well as I hadn't found it before - so just in case, here's my link to it:

Whilst playing around I've now got Asphalt HD and NFS:Shift. Not that I've got any real use for either and they both chew up a lot of space.
On Rotos ROM there ia also an app for that, does someone know where i can find this app for stock ROMs?

I belive its a *# dialer code which wipes your data and changes it (i think)

Probably need to be going through a US IP address though too
Just use market access and you'll be able to download it. I'm in Malaysia and it worked for me
Another way is that enable airplane mode then use a U.S. VPN via wifi connection.
Now you have access to full market.
And sometimes you need to clear data of market app.
No root requirement.

Do you try visit Google Play using desktop computer, not a phone?
No I used the phone

Are you signed in using the same account you used to purchase? If you have multiple accounts on the phone then you can change accounts from in the play app by pressing menu, then accounts.

Try to visit the site with your computer and see if the app is bought or not.

I've asked the mods to move that to general as it's not phone specific. I've also added a method of doing it from the address bar, so you don't have to either use Chrome or figure out how to do the same in your browser of choice.
Is My IP blocked by google? Playstore works fine on GPRS but when I try to download applications throug Wifi on note it shows server error. When i click download, it say country not supported. It lets me download through GPRS. Can anyone pls help?
Dears ,
i'm from syria and in syria the google play is blocked do you have any one Solution to this situation
thanks
Note: My mobile htc sensation xe

You could try a different app market like slideme if that isn't blocked? Also I believe the free app ( it might not be ) market enabler could help here? You might need to download the apk from somewhere though.

thanks Bro ,
any other Solution

I hope that you can use web browser.
There you can download application directly.
To install them you need to do few things first. In Settings go to Security and enable Unknown Sources and in Developer option enable USB debagging.
Use some application like ES File Explorer and you can manage phone applications well.
PS: Take care and I hope that situation in Syria is getting better.

Thank you, but there is no solution to change my settings where I appear outside Syria ?
You could try using a proxy, although I wouldn't know how to use one on a mobile I know that they work because I am able to watch hulu in the UK through my computer that is running a proxy.

If your rooted then I guess there is tor as a proxy? Will be slowish though.

Ok the new MS word, PowerPoint, and Excel are only for beta testers using a tablet. I'm going to show you how to run in on phones as well.
1. Sign up to be a beta tester here http://www.instant.ly/s/w7taW/nav?sessionId=Qyqg66BR53BOHZ7oL8Dn0wwd#p/186a0 Edit MS removed beta tester site don't know why but here is a new link to get office by Google plus
http://blogs.office.com/2014/11/26/get-office-android-preview-apps/
2. Wait for MS to send you an email to beta test.
3. Download market helper. Google the apk. This allows you to change your device so the play store will think your phone is let's say a tablet.
4. Try to download the office apps via the email MS sent you. It should work BUT....
5. When you open let's say Word or any of them it will be huge and won't fit your resolution not sure about quad hd but 1080p is to small. So download app settings from xposed. This allows you to change the dpi of any app you have on your phone. Change all the MS apps to your desired dpi. My opinion for 1080p is change it to 380 dpi.
And that is it. ENJOY!!
ALSO MS SAYS YOU CAN'T RUN IT WITH lollipop but I never tested so just fyi.

You dont have xposed framework in lollipop...so if it huge you can use app settings
