[Q] Google maps not compatible with your device ?! - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I live in Costa Rica and I was trying to update my google maps app in my LeeDroid HD version and its says that my device is not compatible (HTC Desire) is there any way to force the installation?
Thanks!

google maps is listed on this forum , with links etc to the app

Look for Market Access or Market Enabler and never worry about your Google Maps not getting updates.

t-mobile desire user - why are some apps not available?

e.g google earth, ebay app - both of these i've had to find the apk files and use htc sync to install em. even appbrain doesn't work with them. they're tagged but the phone says not found on market
having the prob now since there's apparently an update to google earth but i can't find it.
is it due to my phone being a t-mobile desire and not a plain jane desire?
As far as I know google earth is only released for the nexus one on the market.
ach, ok. that sucks though
at least i got a working ver now thanks to forum dudes
I had Google Earth installed on my Desire (from the market). I uninstalled it as it took too much memory. Not sure why it cant be dl and installed anymore... beats me.
Install Google Earth via the .apk, it's Nexus only at the moment.
i can find the original apk, but is there a way to update it? or get an updated apk? (guessing no, since i can only find the original)

[Q] Apps not showing in app market

I have DHD rooted with the latest update installed fine (Thanks to the xda forums for helping out on that)
I have noticed some apps do not appear for me in the market, even when surfing to their url from the official site (or using their QR code). These apps include the Google Maps app, Nook, Google Buzz widget, Google Shopper, etc.
Is the market blocking these apps for me because of my current location (Israel)? Or is it the cell carrier I am using (Orange il)? Or maybe the language of my phone (English (Spain))?
Will an update to the most recent RUU solve it (And give me some more generic English language)? Or do I have to just hunt around for apk for these apps, and install them manually?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
it's most probably because they are not available in your area, you could use market enabler to mock a diffrent carrier, if you are rooted, try a uk carrier, because all thoes apps are availiable im my area
Thanks - it was just what I needed (and was hoping to hear).

[Q] Missing apps on Market

When I try to search on my DHD (2.2, 1.32.707.5, non-rooted) for 'ADWLauncher EX', the paid version of Fruit Ninja, or to update to the new Google Maps 5.0, its not showing up on the Market.
But when I search on my HTC Eris (KaosFroyo v38) they all show up.
Is there anything I can do so they show up on my Desire HD?
Which country is your SIM card from? Can you see paid apps at all?
The sim card on the Desire HD is the one from the Philippines, Globe Telecom.
Can't see most of paid apps.
EDIT: I'm also currently in the Philippines. Using Wi-fi for both Eris and Desire HD to access the Market
Have a look at http://market.android.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=143779 . You can't buy apps from the Philippines.
You could root and use an app such as Market Enabler to get paid apps.
hm, that sucks. how about if i'm able to download an apk installer for the paid app, will that work?
I've also thought about that, download and just donate. It just bothers me that you can buy paid apps while in the Philippines with a rooted phone. I guess I'll be rooting my Desire HD later.
