Have any O3D expert meet an problem when downloading an Apps from market?
I just found an Apps which is a analog clock, I cannot download and install it as it said "This device is not compatible with this item" from market website.
When I search it from market using O3D, the apps is not shown in anywhere!
But I use a Acer Liquid (It's smaller screen, same resolution, Android 2.3), it can display either from market or market web-site!
The analog clock apps:

Thanks for your reply! May I know which version of O3D you using? I tried 2.3 V21A original FW and many different CFW (acurarom, King, Baxter...) but no help.

I'm using baxter rom from Echts but what I think the real solution is that I have edited the build.prop file with the correct values that LG forgot to include on the v21A update.
You can try to use my patch on this thread and see if that works for you.
Don't mind that the thread is saying that it's for skype. Just try it an let me know.

I modified but no help. I got a hint from that post and flash back to Android 2.2 original FW, it work! The apps from market can be download. Only flash to 2.3 is not compatible.
May I ask a stupid question, your baxter FW is a 2.3(GB)?

Yes it is gingerbread. I had a similar problem and what I did was to reinstall a 2.3 ROM. Then all the apps were working again. I recommend you reinstall a GB ROM after a full wipe and see if that works.

It works! I reinstalled 2.3 ROM. May be the acurarom has some bug. Because after I reinstalled 2.3 ROM and baxter, it still no problem. Once I install acurarom after baxter, many apps cannot find in market and incompatible such as "Smile shooter analog clock", "Maid live wallpaper", etc. Sadly, I just a newbie and have not enough permission to ask in development group
Anyway, thanks for your help~

Its an DPI related issue with new market.
Well I am facing same issue on new Market, it doesn't support dpi other than 240. I have no idea why google put dpi check on the new version of the market.
Anyway if any one want to know how to solve it. First you need to revert your dpi to 240 and restart the phone, and then go to manage Application under phone settings, click on market, and clear data after force closing it. Restart the market and Voila!
Cheers!
Edit: On other note download maket enabler from market if you need to install an app that is not available in your country of the market.

I've solved the dpi problem by deleting "com.android.vending.updater.apk" from the system/app folder and installing one of these themed market apps

I extracted the problem ROM zip file and get the build.prop, it contain this line:"ro.sf.lcd_density=240". I think the dpi should be 240 but still having problem. In another "works" ROM (Baxter), it does not contain this line but it works.

Tried but not work.
I made a zip file with "com.android.vending-1.apk" which is Market 2.3.4. And delete "com.android.vending-2.apk" and market updater using RootExplorer. Then install the zip from recovery. But finally no help. Some apps still hidden.

You need to clear the cache of Market app as well.

[Q] LT28h clone problem

Hello, I bought this phone (LT28h 4.5" Android 4.1.1 Dual Core MTK6577 1.0GHZ 3G Smartphone with Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, Capacitive Touch - google for specs) and except for one problem it's worked fine. It has a 4.1.1 or 4.0.4 android installed. It had a chinese Google play store 2.0.0 installed but I can't read chinese. So I tried to access google play store anddownload apps but I get an error. I also rooted the device using bin4ary_v17. After that I downloaded latest english Google play store. When I install it and try to download an app I get "error RPC:S-5:AEC-0" and nothing happens. After using it for a while I get an error "Unfortunately google play store has stopped". I tried all fixes on internet and nothing works. Can you help me do something, so that I can download apps from google store (english)?
The second question is if there is an option to install a custom ROM (for instance Cyanogenmod) on this device?
Thanks a lot for replying!

Finally. I found a fix for this problem.
I downloaded root explorer, then copied the file
"Vending.apk" (Goolgle market) - not really matter
what version to /system/app (You need to press
the "mount RW" before).
Then changed the permissions on that file (Read to
All and Write to Owner alone).
Once this was done you MUST reboot and after the
reboot it will be working great.
Now, even after erasing the phone to default, the
google play will be there!
Hope it helps someone...

Dont worry doing factory reset, just back up your data and apps using titanium backup and simply restore them after doing factory reset.

When the apps from the playstore install without problem, i'd say your installer is fine. I've encountered this problem as well, but only if I was using the wrong file/wrong file extension..

thanx a lot man!!
i backed up all my data and then did a factory reset with a rom and gaaps reflash...
all is working cool now!!

Hi there, m sure that yu tried to remove bloatware from your device or yu may have rooted ur phone. i would suggest to download and install adb driver and debloater applications in your pc first. after that open debloater app with phone connected to ur pc and begin to read files. there in the list of files you can see googleinstaller.apk which will have a tickmark. that means yu have removed that file in ur phone and so yu are facing this problem. untick and click apply and yu are good to go

My problem is specific with ES Explorer File PRO app in Android 10 too, and I solved this issue installing the "APK Installer by Uptodown" app from Google Play. It's free and no ads.
Maybe if we choose "certified installer" and marked as app "default" to open apk files and later we change manually to "package installer" in the file where that this choice was record, the ES Explorer File could use the package installer native of android to install apk files.

Use int2ext script not int2ext+ i faced the same problem..
I replaced the script.. Cleared dalvich cache and data of playstore..
I deleted the account and added again.. It worked..

I'm not actually good at this but do I need to remove all my apps then change the script or there is an easier and less time consuming way.
Thanks

There are 2 ways:
1. Copy the script in the ROM zip then flash the ROM..
Now you can do is flash over the present ROM installation after wiping cache and dalvich cache ..
2. Copy paste script..
As you have many apps I would suggest that remove apps then put the script..
The reason for removal of apps is it will take a long time to boot plus you may never know what may go wrong .. You can restore your apps via titanium backup so uninstalling won't be a problem..
Hit thanks in the left corner if I helped you..

First of all backup ur all the installed apps with ES file explorer or other one, and also backup ur phonebook contacts then reset ur mobile... I m sure that It will work

You can download the app to your PC.. Go to this site : http://apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader/
