Play Store now locates by billing address

I live in Tanzania but I am an American and have an American billing address. This morning I woke up and both my tablet and phone asked me to re-accept the play store agreement. To my wondering eyes I now have access to the US Play Store with music, TV, and everything. It is also the same way on my PC. I wasn't running a VPN or using the Market Enabler app. My IP clearly shows that I am located in Tanzania. The only thing I can think is that the Play Store is now getting my location from my billing address. Is anyone else having this same fortune?
Also I don't think they just extended the store to Tanzania because I can see even particular apps which are normally only in the US store. And other apps which aren't in the US play store I still can't see (like the VLC beta).
Shouldn't this be news or something?
Edit: My wife is not getting the same results. One difference there is that her account is a free gmail account and mine is g apps for business. Maybe that's important.

Yeah I noticed something similar too. I bought a nexus from Germany to Slovenia with a German virtual credit card and through a forwarding service.
So I guess that the store now thinks that I live in Germany. Just now I noticed that the Play Store app on all my devices started showing music, movies, books and other stuff from German Play Store.
The same on PC without VPN or proxy. It seems they removed all geolocation IP checks and now require just correct billing address and/or credit card.
Well I guess I can't complain.

[Q] Unable to get US play store using VPN

Hi guys,
I have tried to get the US play store using VPN. But it is not working. I created another account and it is able to get the US play store.
Is there anyway to get the US play store on my account.

you will need to create an account in the US and have a US address in google wallet

I have already added a US address to google wallet.
Is there anyway to get it on my existing account without creating a new account?

Outdated google play installed with accounts manager

Hi,
So i was searching for methods to atleast help me login to some apps including taking a backup of my whatsapp chats to google drive.
I came across this :
Run snapchat without google services and without rooting
(1) Download and install snapchat from www.mediafire.com/download/00hbnrp11bmq6jk/Snapchat_9.7.2.0.apk (can download latest version from other places too but i have tested on this version)
(2)download google framework from https://sourceforge.net/projects/se...2.A.0.42/GoogleServicesFramework.apk/download
(3)download google Account Manager from www.mediafire.com/download/lho1jmw49k1gpqq/Google+Account+Manager_4.4.2-940549.apk
(4) download google play services from www.mediafire.com/download/ounh79r7av7da71/Google+Play+services_7.3.29+(1866531-036).apk
(5) Now install first google firmware than google manager and in the end google play service
(6) Restart your mobile (note your mobile may give error that google play service stopped ignore that and click cancel)
(7) now download and install google play store from www.mediafire.com/download/n2z2smxttttt7m7/Google+Play+Store_5.4.12.apk
(8) open playstore and login your account than close play store
(7) Now open snapchat and login your account you would be loged in but app will stop working
(8) After that go to application manager in your mobile and delete google play service, google playstore and google firmware
(9) Run snapchat and you are done
(10) Update your snapchat from any market you use after that if you want
Tested on Nokia X X2 and XL.
After following all this with exactly the same apk's i could manage to login to a gmail ID on the phone via the google accounts manager but every time i open an app that needs services, it would ask me to update the google play services.
So experimentally i updated the play store and services apk's and snapchat still refused to let me login but a different error this time(I feel it comes under their "against tweak" parameters.
Also whatsapp detects the google account but goes on forever authenticating the account, so im sure there is an issue communicating with google serves here.
Let me know if this thread makes any sense, or else it can be deleted. Thanks.

here, but i doubt as much as we try, it wont work, because theres something related to tencent thats blocking google play services from communicating or even running because it keeps crashing.

We apologise for the delayed response.
We would like to let you know that all Google Play purchases are associated with your account, and you can install it on your newer devices as long as you are using the same account. So, please check your Google Play purchase history and make sure that you are using the same account. If Google Play prompts you to pay again despite using the same account, then Google Play Service Framework on your device might be out of sync. As it's an issue with Google Play Store, we have limited scopes for the improvement. However, we recommend you try the basic troubleshooting steps below, and it may fix your issues.
Remove your google account from the device.
Clear the app data of Google Play Store and Google Play Services.
Restart the device and add the account again.
We hope this information helps.

Gmail and Google Play Store

Hi everyone!
When I was making current Gmail account which is connected with google play store now, from some reason then I changed the country on play store over vpn. Than I was just a high school kid and now I want to connect a payment card to play store, a lot of applications which I want to download has not available in other countries, only in my. I tried everything to back account on my country but without success. I can't just switch to another account because when I tried to switch it requires password and when I put a password it won't to accept it but password is correct tho. What's happening with my account and play store? Any advice? I will be very grateful, thanks!
