Change play store back to uk?

Please help me.
I used market enabler and it changed my playstore from uk to usa but don't know how to change it back again, even when I tried with samsung apps that had been changed to usa too.
I'd rather have a better way than factory resetting as I don't want to go through the hassle of rooting again.

Doing a factory reset shouldn't loose root... Unless you re-flash stock using ODIN...

Will it put it back to uk playstore?
I'll give it a try as can't have usa cause my apps don't show up.
Used to doing factory resets then flashing back stock roms after trying roms on my s3 and losing root.
Edit: Factory reset worked
Not trying that again

1. Flash stock rom with mobile odin, select ever root
2. reset binary counter with triangle away and ensure binary counter is zero
3. in superSU select setting -- full unroot
4. done

factory reset ,might help
your tab will be left with rom only, all data, aps, files etc are deleted
Already did that as mentioned before in this thread because it was needed for total unroot. It seems like mobile odin has become a system app.

During reinstall rom from mobile odin previously you should only select everrot option and do not inject mobile odin, that's why mobile odin became sysytem aps
Finally it will be easier if you can find computer and flash trough odin pc

You can back up with titanium recovery. After factory reset root with kingo. But I don't think a factory reset fixes this, you will also neet to flash the stock rom again.
This sucks -_- ima unroot and upgrade to kitkat anyways i dont get nothing with the root thingy

No signal

Today I received a phone recharge, and the first 5 minutes after this recharge everything was good, but then, with no sense, my smartphone didn't receive the signal.
Like I said, the first 5 minutes the device is good, in fact I called my friend with no problems...
I tried to change the SIM, but it doesn't work anyway...
What can I do?

Assuming the reprovision didn't work and you can confirm its not the SIM card damaged.. You could always flash a different radio in recovery or return to stock 4.4.4 via factory image to verify its not the software it'll also flash the latest stock radio.
Unfortunately my pc doesn't work, so I can't do nothing for now, there are other things that I can try?

Mmm... can I restore the nandroid backup of two days ago, when the signal was received perfectly?

Of course you can restore the nandroid. I'd do a full wipe first just to make sure everything is cleaned up.

Flash the factory image in fastboot and see if that solves the problem. If it doesn't it could be a hardware issue.
Edit, I see you don't have a pc Can you borrow one?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app
Today I'm gonna send it to repair, I hope that I can have the pc as soon as possible...
Anyway, in the hardware problem case, can I send it to LG?
I don't have the Google warranty...

Also tried to flash the rom's update, but it still the same.
So my last hope is to flash the factory image, but I have no pc at the moment.

Install Philz Touch. Wipe all partitions and flash vomer's stock 4.4.4 rom via recovery. This should be enough in most cases to rule out a software issue. But I agree, fastboot cleaning has solved my problems which recovery wipes couldn't!
Ok, thanks for the suggestion, I'll try it when I recover my pc
