[SOLVED] How do you purchase apps if your country is not supported?

TL;DR : Use Market Access and if Google won't accept your credit card due to the address not being from a "supported billing country", edit the card details in Google Wallet and use a US address. Thanks to Anomaly for sharing his method.
I cannot find a way to purchase apps on ICS. The Market Enabler method does not work, neither does it's Fake On Boot feature. But regardless, even if the Market is successfully spoofed by Market Enabler, I cannot get past the "Accept and Buy" page. I'm always hit with something like "The item could not be found" or "Your country does not support purchases". Market Enabler method used to work fine on Gingerbread.
Is there another way you guys in non-supported countries purchase apps? This is currently my biggest problem with ICS and no one seems to have any fixes.
Logcat of the problem: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vF6X4L99u7Yug96pZ0-iWLkAZ81SIg2zKiPDd_rQsFs/edit

try Getjar and or Appbrain, see if that helps.

I emailed the devs of the market enabler app, and they seemed to think I didn't know what I was doing when I told them it didn't work with the GN. Maybe someone else will have some luck, I would love to have access to the TMO-USA shop.

I did the same thing but, got no reply. I will try again. I'm pretty sure it's an ICS issue. Google has changed something. Market Enabler worked fine on Gingerbread but, I could never purchase apps when I used it with ICS on my Nexus S.

Which Market Enabler did you use? The one by "rac" or the one by "Artou". Artou's won't even take root for me. rac's works fine and displays paid apps but, I can't purchase them.

Try MarketAccess, works great for me.

There is something strange with ME now, set on boot definitely does not work on ICS and most of the time doesn't work otherwise. I will try wiping data in the Market app and rebooting and 1 time in 10 it will stick and GoogleMaps will show up for me...but most of the time it doesn't work.
You need a USA card to purchase (which I have) but when not working not even free apps will show up.

Market Access is the same app as Market Enabler but I gave it a shot, no go. Tried uninstalling updates too.
Last time I had to restore a nandroid backup just to get my market working. Currently not working, very frustrating!

MarketAccess 1.0.6 have been setting US provider at every boot for me.
Market Enabler 1.8.1 from For2w does not, but it works when I set it manually.
And for the last 3 years or so, I have never had to use a US card, except for buying and renting music and movies.

Are you on a Galaxy Nexus? What ROM? What market version? Are you in the US?

What do you know, Market Access set on auto change on boot worked. I notice that it calls for root very early after boot, so maybe the change gets in before the Market starts to run or something. Thanks, a lifesaver!

Hmm, can't seem to find Market Access.
It's messed up. I've pulled out my SIM, spoofed it to Verizon, set up a US proxy, Cleared Market data and the Market still tells me purchases are not available in my country! This Market 3.4.4

Its not in the market; a quick bing gives: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1272690
Didn't work until I set it for Emulate on Boot. Make sure your data APN is setup and working before you reboot and you should be ok, changing it with market spoofing enabled will not work. If your data gets messed up you have to disable emulate on boot, reboot, reset your APN settings, and go again.

Lol, this is ridiculous. My phone says it cannot open the file! This has never happened before! And sideloading other apps is working fine!
Anyway, I'm using Market Unlocker which seems to have the same options plus it let's you proxy the Market through a US proxy of your choosing (Nicer UI too!) https://market.android.com/details?id=com.evanhe.marketunlocker . Since, according to the developer, the new Market checks your IP address as well. I even put the Market through TOR and used My IP to make sure I come up as in the US. Still no go! I suspect Google has maybe blocked/flagged me or something. Can't find any other explanation for this. When I get to my CC, I'm going to try a last attempt to use a different Google account with the same spoofing methods.
Thank you for trying to help.

It won't open from the "Downloads" app, browse to downloads in a file explorer and open from there...

Thank you, Market Access did work.

Using Market Access now. No longer getting a "Purchases are not allowed in your country", now the message has changed to a consistent "The item you were attempting to purchase could not be found." or "An error occurred: Please try again."
So, I guess something's changed!

Try clearing your market data now that Market Access is installed and rebooting?

First thing I tried. Repeatedly. No go! I'm so frustrated. I'm thinking of just going this route: http://www.usunlocked.com/
Getting a virtual card with a US billing address so that I can use it on the web market as well.

Figured it out. Just flashed a new rom and it wasn't working, moved from Bigxie 5 to 6... one of the changes was restore from market now works. So I setup and some apps were coming down but I stopped to restore from TB. And Market Enabler etc no longer worked. Rebooting and clearing did not help.
So I removed my Google account from Accounts and Sync and then cleared data and uninstalled updates for the Market. Set Market Access to emulate on boot and rebooted. Logged into the Market (it asked for credentials) and back working fine.
Think it remembered from first boot and set my Google account to the wrong market.

I could really use some advice from a technical standpoint please

Hi everyone. I recently got a T989 from Telus, to which I used an Ebay unlocked. Now first things first....I have never had my email account or any account hacked. My computers in my home are virus free, so I have eliminated them. Within a week of using my T989 with Mobilicity, my gmail account (which my phone knows the password to) was hacked and logged in by someone in the U.S (Gmail shows IP logins) and they spammed my entire contact list. Now I am trying to think of ways this could have happened, but I honestly think the phone may have a keylogger or something on it.
Here are the steps they had me carry out (and it did unlock the phone immediately).
Download and install necessary files
http://www.UnlockClient.com/SAMSUNG_USB_Driver.exe
http://www.UnlockClient.com/dotNetFx40_Full_setup.exe
Very simple procedure:
1. Enter your paypal email or start in demo mode
2. Type *#7284# and select USB - Modem
3. Type *#9090# and select [1] USB
4. Exit service menu and reboot the phone
5. Once phone rebooted connect the phone and computer
6. Wait until all drivers are installed
7. Click "Unlock" button
8. Enter 00000000
Here is the auction for this unlock I got. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/280852210909?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
Is there anything there that I should worry about? Or is there any possibility they have someone routed everything I do on my phone through them? I am seriously worried about my online banking information and such. Thank you very much in advance.

not sure if serious?
- taz b.

Why wouldn't I be serious? Isn't this a legitimate conclusion? I don't have a lot of posts but I have been lurking for years. I am serious however.

Unlocking phone is really a matter of entering a simple code in one step. All your steps there including entering your PayPal account, connecting USB?? and installing drivers are unneccesary and sketchy at best.
I've seen some reputable phone unlocking sites but definitely never seen something like that from eBay.
If I were you I would try a darkside full wipe and go back to whatever was at a safe state before.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using XDA

Oh I have wiped many times. The problem is that I don't think any of that wipe stuff will go back to factory settings in those *# menus or for the modem settings etc.
I know an unlock code is all that is needed, but I bought from a website that couldn't find the code. This one offered and instant unlock by a program (like the ones shops use) to unlock.
I am also not dumb, the paypal account doesn't require a password or anything it is just a way to identify your keys.

And did you test your phone with a different sim card? Everything is functional?
As far as I know, the legitimate way and the only way to unlock a phone is through the codes generated by the datebase. All the reputable sites that unlock phones that I know of, all use codes to unlock. When I had bought my telus g2sx the store unlocked it using the code.

Something like a keylogger would be app level, not modem info or hardware level. Also, something transmitting every keystroke would use a LOT of data and battery.
First thing I would do, personally, is check my battery stats to see if any app was using a suspicious amount of battery.
In my opinion, it wouldn't make sense for a company who already got your money for an unlock service to install a key logger to spam your Gmail contacts.
Just my two cents. It would take a tremendous amount of technology to track everyone who used the service. Not to mention man hours in sifting through collected data.
Check the battery stats. Settings>About Phone>Battery Use.
Hope this helps in any way. Hacked accounts are always a bummer man.

Wierd, I used that site a week or two ago and nothing like that happened to me. Makes me worried now.
I didn't use ebay though, I did it directly from the site. You could always re-flash your phone to stock then update it, that would eliminate any possibility of odd software.

In step 1, did you run a program on your computer, on the phone or both?

If you want your phone as clean as possible then do this in recovery
go to mounts and storage format /data format /system format /cache format/emmc. Then flash the super wipe followed by the rom but remember doing it this way deletes everything from your phone.

probably had nothing to do with the unlock, but more likely you had soem one arp attack your wifi on an open hotspot and they just nabbed your password.
I fiddle with this in coffee shops all the time and i always leave with a list of facebook, youtube, gmail hotmail and other passwords.
I'm not a spammer, i just like to see how insecure things are and if any one is intelligent to use ssl... even though ssl can be stripped from a packet now lol

dont use open hotspots at coffee shops and stuff like that. look for the shady nerd in the corner, and i think there is an app that can detect if your wifi is being arp spoofed.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gurkedev.wifiprotector&hl=en
i think there may be free ones too, i dont know. but that app will detect if your being attack by a man in the middle/arp spoofing

I don't use Wi-Fi hotspots since I have unlimited data on my phone. I really don't understand how this could've happened.

its not just your phone that is at risk for these attacks. anything you sign on with is if some one does the man in the middle attack, among other attacks.
Other reasons besides your phone unlocking are the root cause of your issue. It's unfortunate none the less but man in the middle password sniffing and fishing are the leading causes i see at work for your spamming hijacking. i work with this stuff daily.

[Q] Cannot unlock my Wonder

I've got a problem here. Well, I put a PIN code for the unlock screen as my friend sometimes use it without my permission. Then, somehow someone is tring to guess it until it reah maximum opportunity which I have to input my e-mail account. I've already done it but the phone says wrong, but tried on computer and it works fine. I am actually avoiding doing hard reset as I think that's the final solution.
Anyone have a suggestion?
Thanks in advance

Well I simply don't understand why unlocking the phone with your google account did not work. Are you on a custom ROM? Are you using the correct google account which is set to be used with the phone? It seems to me that you are using a google account other than the one on the phone...
Say somebody finds your phone and can not guess the security pin, they can't get in the phone with their google account. It has to be your google account to begin with.
Well AFAIK, the only way I know how to by pass this is to wipe data via recovery. (i.e.: hard reset) but then you will lose all the data...This is a good thing so that people who finds/steals your phone can not get their hand on your personal data..

I also cannot afford to think 'how come I cannot log in to my own account?' A way I think is how to back up data from internal memory while as I know, when we plunging in USB cable, it needs confirmation through the phone...

--Hacking Chromebook-- HELP PLEASE

I needed help with a problem, and XDA is the best place, in my mind, to help:
The Story:
As of yesterday, and until May, I am in possession of a chromebook (HP-14 model). It is registered to my school, and the system has it on lockdown. On lockdown, it is almost useless for me (I love tinkering with stuff, as I am a member of this website). I want to boot from USB.
So far, the only way to boot from USB that I have found is this here, which tells me I need to be in developer mode. Easy stuff. I run into trouble when getting to dev mode it will delete all local data. This will take all of the school's administrator settings and configurations off, which will not be acceptable when I turn the laptop back in.
The Point of the Post:
This is what I really need help with:
1) How can I backup all the settings and configurations (and restore them)? (not just files, files are easy)
--Preferably something like a recovery on an android device where I can just restore before turning it back in.
2) Is there another way (without losing data) to boot into USB?
Thanks in advance.

once signing back in using school account, it'll sync school wifi passwords, school information and all that
you can add a ubuntu chroot to the hard drive and use that in parallel (someone who isnt me used this to cheat on every test )
to remove it, just restart chromebook. press spacebar. it'll wipe the chromebook completely

Thanks again, I think I am going to try it. All I need is to be able to boot from USB. Last question (I am hesitant just because I am part of the pilot program for these notebooks, and I really don't want to get caught modding): When the notebook (HP 14 model) is wiped, I will be able to sign in on my account and all of the original school restrictions and WiFi password will be synced? (In other words, you are suggesting all of the restrictions are saved with my school Google account)

you'll have to play with it a little bit. i was part of my school's pilot program. Didn't get caught, although they suspected but couldn't prove it because of how I said you can wipe it so fast. All the restrictions are saved with your Google Account yes, but with a chroot you can switch between normal chrome os and ubuntu with a keypress and hide it whenever. Deniability is key.

They are legitimately owned.
However the ones we are having issues with are employees that were terminated, or they were temp employeess, and they used their personal accounts on these devices. The ones that used the company email we can retrieve.

Ouch! Now I understand.
That's gonna be a tough one. Generally your gonna need there login info to get back into them. There are dodgy Ebay sellers that claim they can get passed it for certain models of phones. but honestly that's the only other way around that if it's even possible for those models.
Now if you have receipts for them Google might be able to do something if you get ahold of the right person.

I don't know if you figured this out or if this would help but I think I can get you into the guest account on these devices.
First get a SD card with an apk on it. I downloaded one from apkpure. Then when the device asks you to connect to a wireless network, check the Show advanced options box. Then in the Proxy settings drop down box, select Manual. And click on the Proxy hostname box to bring up the keyboard, and press the settings button on the keyboard that looks like a gear. From the keyboard settings menu you can click the mulit-window button on the bottom taskbar and can open two windows. Open the file manager in one of the windows. In the file manager click on your SD card and try to install the apk you put on it. When it prompts you that you need to allow Unknown sources in the settings, click on the settings button to open the settings window. (Do not check the allow Unknown sources box if it allows it, if you check it, and the device resets or runs out of battery you'll have to go through this again, but when you click on the apk it won't prompt you to go to settings to allow unknown sources because they're already allowed.) Now just click on Users and switch to guest. There are some limitations to this mode, like not being able modify the wifi network (you'll have to switch back to the Owner account to change this).

I found a FRP bypass workaround if you are running 5.1.1 on a LG G Pad X 10.1 V930 AT&T model, not sure if all models are the same. It was FRP locked and all of the other bypass methods must have been patched. I was at the setup screen after a factory reset. I hope this helps.
