Purchasing apps on the market outside of "authorized" areas - G1 General

strazzere said:
Just a heads up that later on tomorrow an application will be released to help people outside of "authorized" areas purchase applications for the G1 on the market. More information can be found at http://strazzere.com/blog/?p=249 or the italian version at http://www.androidiani.com/applicazioni/applicazioni-a-pagamento-sul-market-da-ora-si-puo-2169.
Basically it ended up being easier than we originally thought, though Andrea threw together an application to make it easier for people to do.
The program should be released early tomorrow with the source and an explanation of how it works and what not.
Enjoy! Ciao!

I think is interesting for everyone here
Bye Andrea

bump!
i've installed the app and its working!!
but i don't have a billing address in US...

its now working!!
market apps available on ADP1.5 outside US
the app can be found here, look for the link "QUI"
http://www.androidiani.com/applicaz...he-in-italia-con-marketenabler-2177#more-2177
you might need to make a google checkout account from your computer if you are not in one of the market enabled countries... use the same gmail account

I wonder what Google thinks of this...

It works perfect, to bad google only works with creditcards :S ?

winbet this app enable only the purchasing process. We did not made nothing bad...

got the app- pity for some reason superuser doesnt want to play with it- funny cos SU plys ok with everything else....eg. advanced task manager etc.... am running 1.5 ADPHr1

is superuser not playing nice with it?
i use JF 1.5, i have to say allow a million times, but it works!

Amazing job!
Well I just want to thank the team that made this possible, it works just perfect on my JF 1.5 ADP, bought a few apps already!!!
Cheers

I'm pleased that you are happy of our work

Yes, thanks very much Andrea and Tim!

my SU is working ok with it now- for some reason it was hanging up- so i opened SU before opening this app..... i now have paid apps in Australia!!

Any requirements to install this program?
I cant seem to install it, keep getting " the install is unsuccessful" error.

Works GREAT!
It really works! Thank you so much. I felt disappointed when I learned google was not allowing ADP1 users to even see the non-free applications. Now I can see everything. I haven't tried to buy anything yet. I'm in Spain and we are not supposed to have paid applications, so I don't want to rise any suspicions.
Edit 1:
If you want to see the apps, you have to run the enabler and then (immediately after) go to the market. Or, to put it in a different way, it only allows this access for a (very) limited amount of time.
Edit 2:
I was finally able to see a free but protected app (NBA Game Time) from my ADP1, and it downloaded and installed successfully, but it doesn't run at all (force closes every time). If it's of any help, I'm running JF 1.5 on an ADP1.

I'm using JF 1.5ADP with no further mods (apps2sd etc.) and the SU request is freezing, tried a reboot but no joy, any ideas?
### Solved ###
This is a JF 1.5 issue, USB debugging must be enabled for the SU Whitelist to work (reboot not necessary).

I also have the JF 1.5ADP, but I do have the apps on the SD (I did it manually following instructions on JF's web). But it did asked me for root access like a million times (ok, a little exaggeration here, but it was like 6 or 7 times). And it takes a while (like a minute or so).

would it be easy to do the same hack for german market?
Would be cool to change between the different markets...

Switching between the different markets would be rather easy, you just need someone from that area to tell you what the numerical operator number and the operator name is.
I'll be posting soon how to do this process without the program install for people having trouble using market-enabler
Edit:
Try this information if you have trouble installing it: http://strazzere.com/blog/?p=260

Thanks, this is awesome! One thing I've noticed though, when viewing by popularity in uk it only shows free apps - paid aren't showing. They show normally in 'date added view though'.

copilot code cannot be loaded by the system (???)

Hi,
I have a strange problem I was using copilot and it was working good. After upgrading to 1.6 firmware I decided to format android and clean it from some apps.
I installed again copilot and it went well, but when I load it it says
"copilot code cannot be loaded by the system" and it doesn't load anymore.
It is very strange to me.
Any idea?

1.6 broke Copilot. You'll have to wait for copilot to come up with a fix for it.
Yeah same happened to me, 1.6 broke it :-(
Works fine here....
Are you using the latest version of copilot?
Legit version that you bought from market?
copilot works here on cyanogens latest. or at least, it's a laggy, slow, almost-as-good-as-a-standalone-gps app. i aquired mine from alternative sources, and realized it wasn't anywhere near a regular standalone gps unit. since then i've dumped it. nice interface and all, but just too much lag.
google maps is decent enough for me on the road. i mean, i can make a block if i miss a turn or whatever.
Laggy? You just gotta wait a minute after it starts up in order for the system to stabilize. Copilot is *big*, so the CPU goes nuts on initial startup when other processes get blown out of memory and such.
As for standalone GPS's.... well, my GF's tomtom wanted to send us on a retarded route, so I started up copilot and it took a beeline straight to the objective. If you ask me, its WAY WAY better.
And google maps for navigation? About as horrible as it gets. Miss a turn and you're screwed. Copilot reroutes automatically as needed. Copilot also reroutes around bad stuff (like traffic jams). Learn how to use it and its great.

Nope I have CoPilot_v8.0.0.327-kfc2.0 version.
Go buy it.
anyone got a fix for this ? One of the main reasons I went for the HERO is to have a GPS SatVan unit with it... Can anyone suggest a good free alternative ? I find the font in Google Maps too small to make it a vaible option.

The latest version of copilot works fine with all versions of android up to and including 2.1.
I am a paid customer of copilot. for that reason i can say these things. their customer support sucks.
i purchased copilot while using a CM rom in sept 09. everytime i updated my version, i would have to re-download from the market. no biggie. same thing with docs to go, my backup, and other paid apps. i understand their concerns of pirated software. well, one day i decided to try some of the other roms as well as try danger spl, etc. i installed dwang. not a bad rom. i tried to re-download my copilot app... and my troubles began.
it would fail on download each time. never even loading 1% of the app. went back to cyan. still no good. i then went through each and every version released since sept. 09 to see if that would help. nope. i even unrooted my phone! still no good. during this time i searched every FAQ on copilots mother company's site. the one relevant answer i found was that you are supposed to unregister your software before moving to another phone. i guess the other rom registered with their system as another phone. well after a complete wipe, reformatting my sdcard, new rom, etc., i couldnot unregister the program. i tried for a month solid trading respectfull comments with their support guy. respectfull until he treated me like an idiot and made a few snide remarks. anyway... i finally accepted the fact that they were in no way going to give me a copy of the apk. so, i tried a copy from a site i found. i followed the instructions they had on the site, except were they said use some pirate license, etc., i used my authentic information. a short time later, i had my program back.
so, the moral of this story is this: if your legit and need support, you will get half @$$ed support from them. if you are legit, follow the instructions provided on some of the pirate sites WITH YOUR AUTHENTIC INFORMATION and you can get your stuff back up and running. had the jerk support guy just sent me the apk after confirming that i was a paid customer, and told me how to install it, i would have had mine up and running a month earlier.
i have had better support with 1 and 2 dollar app developers than these guys. pathetic.
oh, a big kicker. i sent the guy screenshots of me trying to download the software. he had the audacity to tell me my problems were caused by me using a non oem rom and that google doesnt allow that. what a putz. after i informed him of the fact i had been on the same non oem rom when i purchased the app, the theory of open source, and the fact that my rom was developed with the same sdk that they used to develop their program, and that google fully supports developers, he never responded to me. i then informed him of the fact that i reactivated my legit program using pirates instructions.
no wonder why their ranking in the market place is going down drasticly.

i know this story time and time again, these companies/music/film/tomtom paid for it never worked. industry etc etc create these these situations then try and use screwy laws to persecute people. its not new and it is a reflection of how weak we are as a society. imo

Blah blah blah.... copilot works fine and this is NOT a copilot/alk support issue that you are talking about... it is an ANDROID MARKET issue.
Changing the ROM does NOT require you to unregister the program. It registers against your phone's IMEI, which is constant REGARDLESS of SPL/Radio/ROM/whatever.
There was one version that had some registration problems back a couple of versions, I think they revamped the registration procedure and broke it -- it was replaced fairly quickly. The latest one works again and is actually fully compatible with 2.2.
And FYI: Asking them nicely *does* yield a copy of certain older versions. They don't keep around copies of every version known -- just the "major stable" versions, like 606.

*Warning* New Market(Tmo) Is being pushed OTA

The new market will give FC's and stop you from DL'ing apps from the market. The new market from T-Mo has a new tab and isnt compat with any custom rom using test keys.
Care to cite a source for us?
Edit:
As of the... shoot what is it? The second newest CM (The other one seems to have a bad zip file uploaded D: as 3 downloads of the file with identical sizes, none of them are valid/complete) I can still download, update, and run apps from the marketplace. :3 (1:25 AM PST 12/6/09)
this sucks but i dont think it would affect the canadian users.
Had no problem downloading anything on my phone. The only inconvenience really was that it removed the custom Market Icon as well as the Downloads tab and replaced it with a T-Mobile tab. There was another small nuisance where old app that I have backed up and had installed using an app manager are now showing up as having an update available (I have them backed up and install them manually because updates have crippled the app, so I obviously don't want the update).
There is a very simple way to revert back to the old market. Menu>Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>Market>Uninstall Updates.
Note, your old apps will still show up as having updates available, if you have installed backups from your sd card. Uninstalling, rebooting, and reinstalling did not work for me.
I have g1 with cyanogen 4.2.8 and run partioned sd card for my apps. I just went to the market after reading this and had 5 updated apps. updated and installed all with no problems.
Will have to admit that I am not clear what the orginial post was about or what he is actually trying to say. My understanding is that tmobile is trying to go after the rooted phones out there?

Nope... I'm on Dwang's v1.13 and got the update. No issues with downloading apps. T-mobile isn't trying to mess with rooted phones...just pushing T-mo specific stuff to our phones to "add value" to our Market experiences. I think Verizon does similar stuff on the Eris and Droid.
I am unable to install after the update, it will download, then force close upon installation attempt. I have to remove the update (setting, manage applications) each time I want to download from the market. Yes, it keeps updating on its own after each uninstall.
Nope, T-Mobile is not going after rooted phones. The new market update allows you to get paid apps and have them billed to your phone bill, rather then using Google Check Out. I think Sprint and Verizon are doing the same thing as well, but T-Mobile was the first to implement.

Since uninstalling the update using the method I posted, the Market update has not been reappied by T-Mobile. I think you might have other problems.

I don't think Mlign's Hero rom will get it since it's a 1.5 firmware... but I may be wrong.
I'm saying that because I haven't had a map update yet with the nav option.
I've had Market 1660 since it leaked about a week ago.
The only new tab that I notice is the one that says T-Mobile where it used to say Downloads.
Those that are gettinc FC's should try to get a logcat and maybe try clearing their cache. If that doesn't work then do a backup using nandroid then try pulling the /system/app/Vending.apk file, resign it and then push it back and see if it works then. That may be the reseason why mine works and none of yours do because I've included the newer version in my CHM Theme. However I don't have the alternate form of payment (onto the T-Mobile bill) as of yet. I just bought something domestic ($.99) and the only option that I had through Google Checkout was credit card. Those that have the new market (1660)... do you have any other payment options?

probably though i dont know why theyre being so quiet about it, i would think if it comes to messing with your money they would at least make sure everyone knows so they dont accidentally do buy something then see it on there bill(it could happen! lol)
and i was hoping maybe cm would suggest like a work around or a solution. well, i dont really need the new market.. dont like the new category(there suggestions suck) and i actually like the google checkout! do you think there are any side effects from uninstalling the new market?

WANTED: someone with working market

whats your region code when you check it with Market Enabler?
And are you on Sprint?
Awesome, thanks.
I'm running damage v1 on Sprint.
I thought it had protected apps but now that I check it cant find twidroid.
The number on the "actual" is 310120. That's the only info I've found. I know I had to change that value in the build.prop to make something work, don't remember what though.
Can you post another example of a protected app? My paid apps all show.
Twitroid is a common app used to check if protected apps are showing
CNET Scan & Shop is one that I can think of that doesn't show for me since flashing DC 2.0.
Also Fandango, it seems.
Google Googgles, Shopper & Barcode scanner (ZXing) don't work under DC 2.0.R2.
OP I will try and get this info for u. I am running DC 1.1B6

i think you are trying what i tried to do to enable protected apps by thinking its code related, but i get the same code whether i am running my 1.5 pancake to when i tried the 2.1 damage v2r2 today... i don't have it installed anymore, but it was definitely the same on the working (1.5) and non-working (2.1) versions
below is an excerpt from the "New Damaged rom mods" thread and it actually did work for me once, but then after i restarted it seemed to have lost the settings as it went back to my non-protected list only... i gave up on 2.1 because of the protected apps, titanium backup and vvm issue that i couldn't resolve without re-reading the 2300 posts in the original damage thread and hoping that things worked that didn't seem to work 100% of the time or for everyone.
THREAD EXCERPT
-Protected Apps fix: &postcount=94
*Make sure market isnt running first. If recently ran and in doubt restart. Pushed to /system/app/ then ran marketenabler program on phone. Saved current settings, went to settings list tab.

[Q] Skype for Elocity A7

Hi guys,
I am new here and forgive me if I am asking something that was already discussed before.
Is there a way to install Skype on this device? I tried to go to Skype android section and download it from there but it always requesting phone number and type....
Regards
I FOUND A WAY TO FAKE OUT SKYPE!!!!
1st off let me start, i have the 1.0c mod added to my A7, and i extracted the vending .apk for 2.2.6 marketplace from the update zip found here on xda, cleared out the cache and data, and FC the marketplace, then installed the apk like a normal program, so i have an updated marketplace as well...
but like most of us at this point, when we try and logon to skype it gets caught in a loop...
im very short on time, so ill be quick... ive also got an N1 running cryo 6.1
i get to the login screen for skype for both devices, i have my GF's account entered on the A7 and my account entered on the N1, both have WiFi turned on, i press signon on both devices at the exact same time, and the A7 gets pasted the loop and logs on to skype, i have to very quickly logoff of skype on the N1, and the A7 works!
it does cause a lot of FC's but atleast its progress, and maybe a direction for the devs to look into....
ill give much more detailed walkthru when i get back tonight, or maybe tomorrow...
Whats wrong with skype? I logged into skype and made a phone call to my house with no trouble except when i tried to end the call, it locked up.
My Skype sits at logging in forever. What version of Skype are you running fisher?
Where did you find Skype android version to download? ...and I believe that it is in Skype interest to fix the bugs and make it work on Elocity or any other android device using WiFi or 3G...
Regards
Help - Skype
Same issue - trying to use Skype downloaded from Marketplace (A7 using Dexter version 1c) - seems to be stuck with getting logged in - got it to work once, but I am not able to repeat - please advise ...........thanks - Love the A7 just wish I could address these shortcoming
Installed Skype 1.02 for Android build 1.0.0.659...cannot make it work ...whenever I try to log in it stops working ..sometimes it shows the message "logging in" but it cannot complete the atsk...Have anybody made Skype work on Elocity?
Thanks
as stated earliler i have been able to get skype running on several occasions...
skype currently does not have a valid electronic signature for the tablet, or the tablet the build.prop was copied from...
that is why when we attempt to logon to skype, its checking for the signature, getting caught because it is getting mixed signals from our device and getting stuck in the 'loop'
but my N1 does have a valid signature... which i think is why skype is getting faked out when both devices are logging on from the same wireless network... the signature is going out from my N1, and the tablet is logging on...
Interesting...Unfortunately I do not have phone to use it to log at the same time...and I am trying to do it over WIFI
I bet you Skype will fix it eventualy
Regards
just a quick note.
it has been written in forum for a long time, that Skype somehow is protected from being used over mobile data connections.. im not sure how that affect regular users, but they have done something for US users to protect against Skype use. but this was all primarily on mobiles, im not sure how this fits into a tablet being used.
You may be right...the Android so far was always connected with the smartphones...tablets are very new thing and have been coming out only in last 6 +/- months with latest version iteration of 2.1, 2.2 ans hopefully this summer 3.0.
Regards

skype works fine with ElocityMod v1.3 , but again in US, coming from a USA ip address you might be blocked by Skype, so a signin is not possible.
but its works and i can call using elocity here (from Denmark)

Weird. I'm in Russia
I installed Market by self (it isn't hard for me) and don't use DexterMod yet)
There are some difference, maybe some libraries absent.
Will install DM and check soon.
In Canada, Skype works fine. Now if only Skype had video calling everything would be golden.

Weird. I'm in Russia
I installed Market by self (it isn't hard for me) and don't use DexterMod yet)
There are some difference, maybe some libraries absent.
Will install DM and check soon.

thats explains it.. the build.prop of official rom is not approved by Skype so it fails.. you need a different rom install or "steal it from my mod", it will solve it you dont want the new version.

Yep) Difference was here:
Original build.prop
ro.kernel.android.checkjni=1
Your build.prop
this setting absent
I commented, restarted and Skype works...

I forgot that one thats was actually one of the issues found, but good you found the solution..
I am in USA and Skype works fine....no video beacuse it is not supported in Android version. I have mod installed though...before it did not want to log in.
Chatting and talking works great...

And yeah signing in a problem too it says invalid something
It will go live very soon. Some can, some can't.
Beautiful though. Good sign of things to come.
Anyone else get "Invalid Request" after trying to sign in? It looks like a site error rather than a browser one. I get the same message from multiple browsers.

i got that from the main page, but then i clicked on an app to dl and it sent me to an actual login page. i didn't login cause i didn't actually want to dl the app, i was just checking, so it might work that way.
This is nice!
good find had no trouble signing in.
Very exciting!!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Tried again. Working now. Might have been the traffic / popularity of the site.
Not sure if you guys watched the honeycomb announcement, but it was amazing. Made me want a tablet, and donkey punch an ipad user.
Forgive my ignorance, but what is exciting about web access to the market? Is it supposed to be better than our regular market app?
The Hotness! Logged in. See all of my apps. Can download apps from the website will sync immediately into your phone!
Way to step up android!!
You can browse on your computer, then install the apps OTA, so to speak. Easier to link to apps you like, install them without taking the phone out of your pocket, for example, that kind of stuff. It's just more convenient in some situations.
Well, I just thought of something.... does it work with custom ROM's? I just downloaded something on the net, and it hasn't really downloaded on Bionix V. Maybe I should go on over to the Bionix V thread and ask.
Unfortunately, it is so pointless right now because it can't function correctly over wifi only* connection. It just lists it in my market place under "My Downloads" and not actually installing the application.
I am using wifi only, because 3g is cut off in my office building.
*NOT on wifi but WIFI ONLY

Awesome! I just browsed Gun Bros on the market, watched the Youtube video on it, and installed it without ever taking my phone out of my pocket.

Hmm... I just got back to my pc and tried to install. I am on Flagship and it didnt give me a notification, and its not showing under My Apps.... maybe the developers need to modify the build.prop?

Well I'm pretty sure all developers keep the fingerprint as the old eclair build for proper regular market access. Obviously I have no idea if this website would react differently. Who's to say it's not just as problematic on stock builds though? It is a brand new site after all.
Edit: Well I tried it out for the fun of it. It shows the download trying to take place on my phone, but the progress bar does nothing. Then again, I get this fairly often with the regular market too.
