i am an owner of a nexus s (rooted BUT stocked no rom/kernel/nothing)
Htc Desire
LG optimus one
and i have a strange problem with the google maps application
although i can see a notification that i can update the maps app when i try to all i get is an error "this video is not available in your country"
yes i know google maps is NOT a video but that's what i get in the app page
here's a screenshot i got
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
i live in greece..and i had ALL the latest updates to all my 3 phones..without using hacks/alternative apps (market enabler) etc etc..
but for the newest version 5.11 i think i simply can not update..
is there a know problem with greece or other countries?
i already posted on the google maps support and all i got back as feedback is to re-install the app witch i already did..
also add to that the google + applications gives me the same error!!!!
i too have the same problem since i have installed CM7 on my phone!
I think there is a video in the previews of this app and apparently its blocked in your country. The weird part is that the message removes the update and uninstall buttons. Try logging in to your account from your PC and go to the Android market and try installing from there. It should work.

Hello,
I am having a problem with Play Store (Market) from 3-4 days. When i click on the Google Play icon, it gives me 'Server Error - Retry'. Upon doing some search here and there, i found out that i am not the one having this problem and some people already have fixed it themselves by using Market Enabler App.
So here is the real deal. When i fake a provider using the market enabler app, and then try to open the Play Store, i can access the store !! But when i try to download anything, It Says "This Item Cannot Be installed in your country - Ok"
I have tried every possible solution and to check how legitimate this error is, i even tried apps from Indian developers.. but still no luck.
can someone help me fixing this problem ??
This problem is happening to all my friends with HTC (desire hd, evo3d, etc), i myself have SGS2 and its just fine. Its really terrible, wtf is google doing
yea i just ran into this problem on evo3d
This problem is not happening with me.

Try this easy fix
Hi,
Did you try to kill the market/play store app, clear cache and data, and then go and clear Download Manager cache and data, restart phone and try again?
I had the same problem and only this in that sequence helped me. Everything works great for me since then.
I have tried everything !! nothing seems to work !!! I am tired of this error. i'll wait for it to be fix if it is a server error in real. I'll give my feedback in 2 days n tell you if it resolved for me.

Use Market Unlocker apk
Change your Country to United States Of America!
You WONT get free paid apps or anything.
It just changes the Market's Server.
Try it and it should work for you!

It should have worked but i have already fixed the problem. Thanks for the suggestion though my friend
Here is what i did -
1. Wipe Data and Factory Reset. It removed all the accounts and play store data along with all the apps.
2. Added alternative google account. The account that was not intended to use with this phone.
3. Installed market enabler (from apk) and then fake a provider from US (T-Mobile) and DID NOT click on "Save Current Settings" and closed the app. This got me the access to store but still "this item cannot be installed in your country" error.
4. Added the account i intend to use with this phone.
5. Opened up Play Store > Menu > Accounts and then selected the account i added later. This solved the downloading error and everything was working fine.
However, there was still a major problem, the currency was not in rupees and i might not have been able to purchase any app from the store. I simply Opened the Market Enabler App and Clicked on Restore Settings (Thats why i didn't click on save current settings) and the currency and my provider went back to original.
Anyways, thanks to all who suggested me solution for my problem

I will Put 'Close This Thread/Solved' In the thread title for the mods to close it.
I'm trying to update some apps from lenovo app store (Notes mobile, gmail, kindle etc) and everytime I start downloading it, the notification shows then the whole screen goes black and then app store crashes.
Any ideas?
I bought it used, factory reset it, updated to 0089_US.
Exact same problem here.
Have you found a fix?

Same problem with this built-in Lenovo App shop apk - black screen after trying a download. Contacted their support (mobihand) and a TSA sends me the update files for download.
This is the way I do updates until I discovered this workaround:
Access directly to their website: http://www.lenovoappshop.com/
login to your account and check the apks needing updates and send it to my email for downloading.
This worked for all apks except for the Gmail apk (parsing problem).
Hope this helps.
The lenovo app store went out of business while back leaving the customers stranded. Type alternative android app markets into Google search an in the first few forums you should find lists of free app market that will work on device. I use slideme an Amazon app markets, an a few others. Hope this helps you.

It happens to me too, for 2 days now, but I don't think it's device specific, it happens on the desktop browser version of google play store as well ...
Seriously? I thought this was only me as I saw my friend was completely able to look for apps and download them on his phone, but I don't know. I have tried all from clearing the cache, to factory reseting, to force stop the app and nothing have worked for me so far.

Have out try to do the search from a desktop browser? Still no results found for me, starting to get really strange, and my friend couldn't get any search results neither.
I searched for apps on my fathers phone which is a RAZR HD also, still shows no results, also on a friends phone it doesn't show any results either, so I guess this problem is with the play store

Im having the same issue on my Galaxy S4 on both the default rom and CM. I live in Puerto Rico, maybe google plays has issues with my location again.....
Also my father Nexus 4 has the same issues, but a friend with ATT that shows up as in the US does not have the issue.
I too live in Puerto Rico, I have a RAZR HD from Claro and my father also has the same phone, both of our phones show the same thing in the Play Store: "no results". My friend phone is from At&t and it doesn't have this problem so I guess this is location issues

I think I know what it is...some time ago Google Play had problems with our Carrier as it is only carrier going to the internet with an IP from Puerto Rico insted of the US ( ATT and T-Mobile have US IP addresses. ) and white-listed Claro IP Address to fix it, it seems they changed the gateway ( The ip witch all claro phones show on the internet ) upon looking the gataway the new ip is 63.135.255.92, probable changed this sunday when changed the new firewall gateway and that seems to have screwup everything.....
Great, now to wait when they're going to fix that, if they will.

Hey,
am having the same problem as well on my Motorola Atrix 4g. The play store keeps giving me the message "no result" to everything I search. Even when searching for apps via the web (on my computer) i get the same message as well.
though that problem, I'm still able to download apps from the home page using different categories and directly from Google search which gives the link to the play store ... the problem only occurs when i try the search for any app within Google play.
I Even tried searching using a new account, but the same issue happened.
I contacted Google support and they told me to clear the cache and uninstall the updates from Google play store.That still didn't solve my problem....and this problem is not device specific because it happens to me while using the computer.
I gave the the Google support tech my issue and email and as of this moment am currently awaiting an email from the support team to see if they could solve this problem.
p.s anyone with a solution please help

If you are from outside the continental US, use a proxy to enter the Google store with an US IP address, also clear the browser cache/cookies before using the proxy trick.

No solution here man, I'm having the same problem even on the desktop version, evidently there's something really going on with Google Play.

Your bug is related to ours in the sense that its Google Play having issues with Caribbean Users, but my fix migth work for you phone too.
THE FIX
But not exactly the same as the Puerto Rico Claro users ( Me ) for those using Claro , I found a temporary fix.... It seems Google screwup again not acepting Claro Carrier number (330110) you will need to change to fake your Carrier Provider. Ex: use Tmobile or ATT Carrier number
A) Theres an app that can do this if you got root on your phone : https://market-enabler.googlecode.com/files/MarketEnabler_v3113.apk
B) Alernative without ads (also requires root) : http://amip.tools-for.net/ds/dl.php?f=/files/MarketAccess.apk
I live in Asia area and I have the exact same problem (for almost a week now)... no sure how Google can mass up with their store like this
Thanks alot for your help man :good: ... but will Google fix their problem in the future... since this problem happened to you in the past or will i have to use this method permanently?
I've been looking for fixes for you guys, I read this: https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/2462844?hl=en
only thing it says is Google Play Movies is not avaliable.
what about the app called "Market Enabler"

The thing about movies not avaliable happens if you put Puerto Rico as Country in your google profile, but if you put Puerto Rico as State and US as Country Movies does work without a problem.
Market Enabler is one of the apps I sugested as temporary fix, but its filled with ads, MarketAccess is a fork I found that works and does not have the ads.
I just got my 7 pro. I'm trying to download my paid apps but I'm not able to. If I try to buy the app again to see if that work. Prompt says I already own the app. Is this a known bug? Is there a workaround? I have a lot of paid apps
You didn't say what exactly happens when you click install. My first thought would be to remove and add my G account, maybe clear the data of Play Store. Then I'd do a simple Google search if that didn't work.
