I love this magazine and I'm paid subscriber, and I last night I upgraded my custom ROM to ICS 4.0.3 and I'm getting 'this app is not compatible with this device' error.
I have a SG2 running a custom rom.
Any pointers?
Thanks guys!
Where are you getting the error message? From market download?
Usually, most of the apps are running well on ICS. So, if you have an app already downloaded or backed up, try to install the app using backup.
If you don't have any backup, only the way would be going back to previous rom and download the app, backup and coming back to ICS. Try install the app from backup.
My one more question is, did you change the lcd density?

Thanks for your reply.
I tried installing this app by clicking directly on their website, which in turn sent me to the android market and at the top it says 'this app is not compatible with your device'
Unfortunlally I didn't back up any apps.
And no, I didn't change the lcs density, to be honest I dont even know how to do it, lol.
should I actually be doing that?
Is this a mobile echnomist lite?
I was able to download from my ICS FC15 Rom.
[update] never mind. I found the app also from their website and linked to google market.
It seems like only the way would be going back to GB (if you were able to download from there), and save the app. Then comes back to FC15 again to manually install the app.
Ohhh that's a pain in the a.......
maybe I could download the apk from a a website and try it that way?
I DO not recommend but if you can, that would be easiest way until ICS is formally supported.
For me, it worked like a charm in that way.
Now I'm removing the app from my phone.
I have the file, I think it will work for anyone that did not the backup
here it is
edit, I have to have more than 10 post to share a link, I post it on the economist forum ...
Come on Economist!
You would think for $100 a year they could provide a recent app. Think they got their heads shoved up their ipads.
I used airdroid to download the apk from my phone and then upload it back to the new tablet, worked like a charm. However, the app IS laggy with jellybean, definitely something needs fixing, scrolling is very jerky.

No I do not have,I'm using the Google play right now, since they updated the software it is working flawless...
Bump. I'm also looking for thel latest version posted above. Still not quite compatible with JB but supposedly works MUCH better and has fixed the scrolling issues, etc.
Thanks in advance.

Settings/App(Google Play)/Clear Data/clear Cache/Clear Defaults then when you go to Play Store and sign in again it should work. This is how I always clear the not compatible error.

Stock apps as in stock sense? From a non-rooted mytouch or just the google apps? I would suggest looking for the cm wiki and downloading the google apps package from there, you might have the wrong set.
The stock google apps...like messaging, email, maps, etc. i'll try that when I get home

Hi,
I recently flashed my device from the Asian firmware to European firmware. After flashing, i realized that the DioPen Chinese IME is not available as it was available in my device when I first bought it. Is there anyway that I can re-install the input again into the device.
I had try using many 3rd party application in the market, but none of them satisfied me yet. If there is the way to re-install the DioPen Chinese IME, I would be happy..
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.
Im not sure if this will work for you but here, I've extracted DioPenChineseIME.apk from a DXKPB stock firmware. I think you can install it just like a regular app.
Hope it helps.

I am able to install it, but i believe that is some missing file due to the keyboard is not popping up after enabling. Instead it crashed, and enter the "force closed" mode..
Maybe you can't install it like a regular app. By which I have no idea myself how to. The app in the market works well too though, tried before since I used em before

You need the better one, the newest version in which has a full screen handwriting mode.

I upgraded my A100 to stock ICS ROM Acer_AV041_A100_1.012.00_WW_GEN1.zip and found many apps are missing from Play Store. If I download them from app store website in browser, it says "incompatible with your device".
Does anyone knows why and is there a solution to this issue?

Did you happen to have a modded build.prop prior to upgrading to the stock ics? By the way .012 is not the stock (if i'm not mistaken) its the last leak prior to the stock....014 IS THE stock...

Thanks for the reply.
I didn't do anything special on build.prop before to .012 rom.
I just flashed to Acer_AV041_A100_1.014.00_WW_GEN1 but the problem (missing apps) still exists.
One example of missing apps is ireader (full version). I can only see ireader (offline). From the other tablet (Nook Color CM9), I can see both versions of ireader.
I also tried to edit build.prop as suggested in this forum to mimic my A100 as A500 in Play Store (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1525964), still no luck.
Can anyone help me out? There are many apps I use heavily but cannot load onto A100.
Thanks

Development?
I'm pretty sure thi isn't development... Sounds alot like a question that needs an answer. If you want to get a better response, you might want to delete this thread and re-post in the correct forum. Also when you get some time, drop by and read forum rules... Jus sayin'

Pretty much correct, dev is for releases of some sort, not questions. Buuuuut since its already here may as well pitch in lol.
Modded build.prop is most common way around it, but you can also side load apps from other sources and install from SD or adb.

As I asked on topic, this is quite important to me cos Whatsapp is the only free messenger that my mom knows how to use and I'm a big fan of JB

I think downloading it from playstore doesn't work, complains about compatibility. You can download it from www.whatsapp.com/download
Thanks guys, downloading JB now
The given link did not work for me when I tried today from my mobile. (but works with desktop pc). The link i used to install is to use the word android after the whatsapp domain to get this app installed.
Also make sure to turn on the setting to install apps from other souces to get it installed sucessfully
could any jelly bean users confirm if PlayStore actually allows whatspp already? or is it will under "incompatible", lazy to flash my rom to check it out.
hope you guys dont mind
Yeah pal, WhatsApp works fine on JB. I have CM10 and all apps work. If you use SwiftKey then install titanium backup, make a back up, uninstall and then re install. This is because you lose it when rebooting.

You have to do a manual install (www.whatsapp.com/download), it wont install from the play store.
And then you can use something like Easy Installer to install the .apk
Well I already tried some jb Roms and all were compatible with whatsapp, but I never installed it from play store, I always restored it with titanium...

Ok, so here is my problems
I got MIUI Android 2.9.29 on my S3. I just upgraded to version 2.10.26. The update process includes wipe cache, dalvick cache, flash new rom on top of old one without wipe clean, then flash google apps.
After the installation, I found that I don't have Google Maps any more. So I go to Google Market and download Google Maps, and I got the error below:
"Incompatible with other applications(s) using the same shared user ID"
I have searched all over the internet and I can't find a solution working for me at all. Some of the proposed solution that I have found:
Install ROM Toolbox and remove the previous Maps app ===> I can't do this since there is no Maps app in Setting/Application
Install SD Maid and use corpse finder to remove old apps ===> I have done this but still same result
Fresh install of everything ====> Have not tried it yet since I will lose all my settings and SMS.
I would have post it in the MIUI thread but I am considered to be a noob (under 10 post) so can't post there yet. If anyone can help, greatly appreciated it.

No, this is MIUI Android ROM, the option to change dpi is not available. The only ROM that I have seen that allows changing of DPI is paranoidandroid ROM.

Actually you can edit your build.prop of any ROM to change the dpi. But what is the exact error you have? Can you post a screen shot please?

Well, I just nandroid back to my stock, deodexed ROM. If I want to take that screen shot, I got to switch to MIUI again. It is a bit of a hassle.
Basically, based on my description of the problem above, when I go to Google Play and install Google Maps. A message popup with the error message below:
"Incompatible with other applications(s) using the same shared user ID"
When you hit OK, the popup went away and Google Maps's installation is a failure (no installation). Not sure how to fix it. You can read my original post above and see what I have done so far trying to fix it, but none has worked so far. I got tired of it so I switched back to the old stock ROM using Nandroid.
I think the only way to fix this problem is to do a clean installation, but it kinds of defeat the purpose since I want to keep all my old settings in MIUI.

Did you use the same MIUI ROM ver 2.10.26? or it is a diffrent ROM? I don't know about other ROM. But for MIUI, I think you need to do a clean install as the only solution. I have tried to look up other threads and ask for help but no one was able to give a working solution. You can tried some of the method I list in my first post above. Some people say it works (not for me), but won't hurt to try.
