[Q] Bluestacks - Google Play app not available in country

Hi,
I'm using Bluestacks on my PC and I would like to update an app but Google Play is telling me that the app is "not available in your country". The first version was ok but only the update has this.
Is there any solution to change the country detected when using Bluestacks ?
I found Market Enabler but I would prefer not to pay just for that, and I don't know how it would work on Bluestacks.
I tried syncing with my phone but the app is not showing in Cloud Connect. The app cannot be moved to SD Card either, to protect against copy.
Anyone can help me ?
Thanks (and sorry for my english if I've made mistakes)

Setting a manual time zone within the Bluestacks settings seems to fix the problem.

Samsung gear app store paid apps for non Samsung phone

I managed to purchase some watch faces that were previously not available to non Samsung devices. Have Samsung note allowed those with non Samsung phones to buy apps?
I had to register a credit card with them, but it was easy.
Using lion gate watch face at the moment, was £0.98

Seems like a good news for non-Samsung users Which phone are you using?

Seeing paid apps in the gear app store on my LG V10 and have access to prevously bought stuff as well.
Edit: Tested purchasing as well and worked fine.

Were you able to able to register your credit card on Gear App itself or did you have to do it somewhere else online?
I have it paired with a Huawei Mate 7 and can only see free apps with no apparent option to add any credit card details.
Thanks.

I managed to register with the Samsung gear app store via the app. Didn't have to register anywhere else.

I had to do it on my computer. I kept getting error messages on the phone.

In my case it never asks for a credit card. I have even tried creating a new account on a PC. It must be geo locked or something of the sort.

Can you download the gear manager in playstore? In my case it started working with payed apps as i could download the gear manager from playstore. As long i used the app offered here in forum i only got free apps.
Sadly there are still free apps i can't see in store, like ntv, kommot or golfcard.

Hi Javan, I always downloaded the gear manager app from the play store. In the meantime I finally got a reply from Samsung and they basically said that paid apps are not supported in my country (Malta).
My problem is that I don't know at which stage this "country check" takes place.
1) Is it when I am creating the Samsung account? In this case I would be able to use a VPN workaround when creating a new account.
2) Is it when I download the Samsung gear app from the Play store? In this case I will need to root my phone and use a market unlocker.
3) Is it when I am accessing the Tizen store? In this case I have no idea ... it would be too cumbersome to workaround this [emoji22]
One way or another there has to be a workaround, I just want to avoid rooting the phone as much as possible.
If anyone has any ideas or managed to access paid apps in the store from a non-supported country, I would be forever grateful if you can share your solution.

These are the same things I've been thinking about this problem. Did you find any sollution? I cant imagine base on what it takes your location, IP address, google store, or what. What I found out today is that if you loggin samsung store Web, it displays among your info Country: XXXX

Hi guys.
1 week with a gear sport paired with asus zenfone 3 and I can't access any paid apps from Gear app... Just free apps showing to me.
Tried everything, reset, another phone (Nexus 5) and nothing.
Paid apps just show to Samsung phones?

HERE WeGO map out of store

After installing the official Gear Manager for Ios (Iphone), I had to resett my Gear.
Of course all previous apps were deleted. One was HERE WeGo.
After reinstaling all apps I could not find the app HERE WeGo any longer.
Is it out of the store or only as a paid version?

I have the same problem with many apps , i think there is 2 possibility first it's maybe because of iPhone version of gear app and the second one it is maybe depend on region of your watch
but before ios paring, do you paired your watch with Samsung or android device ?

Same issue.

Same exact issue here. Did a reset on the Gear s3 in order to switch from Beta to the officially supported iOS app. After that Here WeGo was gone and not available on the app store any longer.
If I find any solution/answer I will post it here.
Thanks for your post!

Same here: Germany. Thinking about going back to Android app

I m going back to android app as well due to lack of crucial apps like spotify . I have the LTE frontier and was happy with the standalone spotify on it.

The APP for Spotify without any companion app is "Wammer". Very nice! See here.

Topic is about Here WeGo !
Not about Spotify. Start your own topic please.

Same here, I live in Germany. It seems that the Android version has many more apps in the store including WeGo and the standalone navigation software

It's strange. For in the beta version of the Gear Manager it was available.
Installed it then. But after reset for original Gear Manager lost the App Here WeGo.:crying:

Write to samsung support ASAP. All of you....

If you try to install most apps on android, they will show up in your iOS device under "My Apps"->"All" and you can install them from there. However, it doesn't work with all apps. And some that install (including navigator) won't work, because they need a companion app on the phone.

I like Here Wego but although I can get the US version off Play, I can only get the European version from Gear.

Latest Update for Samsung Gear S3
HERE WeGo: Latest Update for Samsung Gear S3 gets public transit and companion mode

But is not available for Ios users. Cannot find it !

The app Here wego is only available for Samsung Phones and S3, i cant find it in my LG,

Yes you need Samsung phone to be able to download it. What worked for me was to pair with a Samsung phone download Here Wego take backup of watch and pair up again with my Nexus 6p and do a restore. Now you can find Here Wego from my apps in the app store.

Question gw5 pro playstore problem!

I did a reset for my gw5 pro but apps i installed on the watch before resetting are still shown as "installed on watch" on my phones play store!!!
watch play store doesnt even open after reset!
any clue?
edit: solved by pushing the installation of an app from the phone....then suddenly the watch playstore is back!

Thanx for "self solution" and feedback.
Tiny Question.
You have Samsung Phone? Or other brand?
Because here User with NON Samsung Phone have problem like this:
GW5 and Google Play store
Google play store is recognizing my watch as a phone, which doesn't allow simultaneous phone/watch installs. I've reset the watch twice now with same result. Anyone facing the same issue and have found a fix?
forum.xda-developers.com
Thanx in advance.

I have recently bought W4and installed it y'day.
Play store doesn't showing Assist app but if you open Play store on watch → My App → you will see Assist and there will be option for update. Just update it and it will get installed.

Unfortunately it's not my case, I haven't any assist app or so even searching in the play store doesn't show up anything.
Tried also using the play store on the phone selecting the watch as device but without success.

Yes play store doesn't showing assistant app. I was able to use only by updating pre-installed assist app. Possibly pre install may varies regionally.
