I am using P7510 wifi only model and living in China. These I tried varies methods and finally found the way to remove the market regional restriction without vpn.
I am using overcome 1.1 with pershoot kernel, which is based on a 3G rom I think(not sure if this helps or not).
1. install market access and fake tmobile provider
2. remove google account and disable network and gps location service
3. force close market and clear data
4. open market, add back my google account
5. now I can see all the paid apps and download them without error like "this item cannot be installed in your country".
ps. not sure market access will work on a wifi only rom.
Thanks for your post. I have struggled with market access every since bringing my tablet to China. I have found ways around it, but they are painful and only temporary.
I can verify that market access will not work on an wifi only version. It is interesting that you have flashed yours with a 3G version of ROM. I have wondered if this would then work and obviously it does. I am also using pershoots kernel but just flashed tasks new ROM and really do not want to change to another one. I have often thought that we just need to use some of the 3G settings in the build.prop to make the marketaccess program work but I have not seen confirmation of this.
Can you point me to the exact 3G ROM you are using? Thanks.
I am using overcome 1.1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275751
but since its based on 3g rom, it gave me headache setting up exchange mail, and imap won't retrieve any mail, only pop3 works. I am waiting for overcome 1.1.1 which reverts back to wifi only rom and should resolve the email problem, but then market access may not work.......

How about after a reboot? I tried Market Access, Market Enabler as well as RootToolbox Pro and neither was able to handle the fake on boot option.

That is a shame. I spend a lot of time in a country where paid apps are not available and it is a pain to download the apps to my phone first (Market Enabler fake on boot works perfectly on it) and then copy them to the Tab, but what can one do. Maybe someone will come up with something better.

great news. I install overcome rom 1.2 which is back to wifi base, and my method works!!!
Very interesting and thanks for the feedback. I assume you flashed with the 1.2 version for the 7510 (Wifi only version) and this is what you say is now working? Or did you flash again with the 7500 version of 1.2?
I may try to flash with the 7510 and see if that fixed the market problem even though I had not previously flashed the 7500 version. I can't believe this will work but may give it a try.

Hi,
I have installed market enabler on my Device but still when try to download from market, after some seconds that loading ; It returns to previous step (e.g home screen; Browser, etc) and I can't use Market. any extra settings needed?

I installed an update of Barnacle Wifi Tether but it crashes my phone so I reinstalled the old version. Every time I open the Market it tells me that there is an update available. Any way to stop this happening?
- use this one : click works fine
- in newer ROM you can select if you want to automaticly update or not
- market options (menu button in market) > disable notifications..
Thanks for the suggestion but I have tried that. My system reboots about every third time I use it. The old version of Barnacle is the only wireless tether app that seems to work. Don't know why: I am running Floyo and, as far as I know, other people don't have a problem.

I just finished reading an article on Eweek that indicates that access to the android market in mow available for computers http://market.android.com/....
I don't know if it is only supported on Honeycomb, but I can't wait to get home and try it...
here is the Eweek article also:

I shared your excitement but as I'm sure you discovered, it still does work! You need to log in with a Google ID, but when you do, it tells you that there is no Android phone associated with your account.
I don't have an Android phone but I wonder if I did have one and registered it, would the A7 then be able to access the Market?
Really, Google has made the situation worse because now I can see all the great apps in the Market but can't access them! There more bliss in the ignorance when I couldn't see the apps at all!

Unfortunately, I updated to the Feb 4 firmware 1 day before I learned of of this...so now I wait!
I went to market.android.com on my device. Signed in with my Google Apps account, the same one I used to sign into Google Apps services on my A7. It shows everything I have downloaded using Dexters mod marketplace in it's history or whatever it's called. Also, I can choose install on any non installed app and immediately the app downloads to the A7. I didn't get any messages about the device not being registered. it just seems to work. I am in Canada as that may make a difference.

You can still use Dexter's MOD, you'll just need to do a back up and wipe/reset the device before updating.
Is there another way to get android without Dexer's Mod? My sister is getting one of these and I want to install the Market on it for her but I don't want her to have root (If it were mine it would be a different story). There should be some way to install the market and associated services to run it with an APK file without needing to root it, like my Archos 70.

Borrow a friends Android phone, turn on its Bluetooth.
Turn on your tabs Bluetooth,pair them, use a file transfer program on his phone,download market on his phone when done tranfer it to your pad.A friend of mine did it and it works on on the free apps so far.You should then sign up with google account,before trying to get apps.

I have a android phone with the market and dexter 1.3 on my a7 when I go to the market on the computer it gives me the choice to sent apps to my a7 or to my phone. I have my a7 on and on the internet. It will send the app directly to the a7.

I have a dumb question! The mod by Bestialbub (What a name!) looks pretty simple, and it is what I am leaning towards. I really like my A7 and do not want to mess with it too much. I may even just decide to wait to see if Elocity comes out with an official patch. I just flashed my unit to the newest firmware. Do I need to do this again, as stated in the first part of the directions, or can I just boot into the recovery mode and flash using the file that I download? Also, what is the risk for doing this? Have many of you ran into issues with it? Thanks!
my market patch works fine w the latest update. check out my twitter under the same name for updated recoveries that will let you backup your rom, flash my mod, and restore back to where you were if you dont like it.
my mods a small one that can be applied anytime over the existing firmware. a factory reset should be done after that will wipe your data and let the google apps install properly on next rom boot.
i would suggest to wipe/factory reset w my clockworkmod recovery (on my twitter) as it should leave your internal storage partition w your media downloads alone. note; i havent actually tried that suggestion (reset) from cwm, but it sounds like a good idea.

I just ran this update, and followed the instructions to the letter. Everything seemed to go well, however, when the device rebooted, I see no Market link. What did I do wrong?
Never mind! I figured it out. The update.zip file I had on my sdcard was the elocity firmware file. I copied the patch to the wrong spot!! DOH!!!.;p).
Alas, Woe is me.
I went and loaded things (wallpapers, eBooks, games, etc.) onto my A7.... then I find this forum!
Is there an easy way (perhaps with a free, non-Marketplace, app) to back up all of this onto an SD card (or even a USB flash drive) and then re-install it after installing one of these mods?
I'm sure I could copy everything over individually, but there's got to be an easier way....is there?
hi,
i brought a HTC DHD from london (Virgin, unlocked) a couple of weeks ago, and im in sudan...and as you've probably guessed, the Android Market is blocked here. The app opens and says "loading" then it closes (goes back to the 'All Apps' menu).
i want to download from the market, and everywhere i go, people tell me to 'root', obviously im new to this concept.
i've read some threads here on this website, but it looks like its a long process, and the "IF ANYTHING HAPPENS ITS NOT OUR FAULT" warning scares me badly.
i want a way to access the market without rooting.
and if there isnt, and rooting is the only way, then what exactly is rooting?
will the way everything works change?
will all my installed apps get deleted?
is the interface different? ( no HTC SENSE?)
and when 2.3 comes out, what do i have to do to upgrade?
NOTE:::
android version -> 2.2.1
baseband version -> 12.2xx...
software number 1.7xxxx
can anyone help?
1. your friends ask you to root is to enable you to use 2 important apps, a. Market enabler, and b. Market enabler codes. Both apps are available in Android market but requires you to root.
2. Rooting, its a process hacking your phone to gain the superuser access where it is not available on stock ROM ( ROM in a sense is the operating software for DHD).
3. Rooting does not remove installed apps. It only 'unlocks' the phone.
4. Rooting enables you to switch ROMs (exp, Android Revolution HD, Cynogen, LeeDroid..). Each ROM offers difference experience in user interface and performance (processing speed aonpd battery life). Users usually find which suits them best and difference regions have different performance albeit similar ROM+kernal+radio (to devs, correct me if I'm wrong here). Some ROM state 'no sense' included which means no HTC Sense is included.
check your email address/ account is correct it stopped my other halfs accessing the market until i changed it.
So now I've rooted my phone successfully and I downloaded market access and market enabler.
But still, I can't open the market.
Is it because my sim card is in the phone?
The main reason for me rooting was to open the market, but I still can't
Alright. From the copy any sim codes of your choosing from market enabler codes, then past.the codes into the market enabler app. Hit apply. Then access the market. You should be alright.
Just download Applanet and use that. Its got tons of free and paid apps and no regional restrictions.

Uninstall it and reinstall the new apk from the site (it will not just update version from the phone)
Oppps, I double posted.
k, i'll try, and tell you what happens
recently i flashed overcome's p7500 rom and i like it a lot. i didn't know anything about kies before that, and after flashing i couldn't get my device recognized by kies.
1- is this because my csc changed when i flashed a custom rom?
2- does my csc change when i flash a custom rom?
i dont give **** about warranty etc. i just want the best for my device. so i'll probably update my device everytime overcome relaeses an updated rom.
3- so, am i missing anything by not using kies?
4- i'm from turkey and paid apps are not availible in market for my country. does changing csc will make them availible?
5- does changing csc will benefit me in any way other than the paid app problem?
6- can you offer any modifications (besides pershoot's or riego's kernel)
also many thanks to all developers in this forum, i was hating my device before i met you guys. keep up the good work.
bump! nothing? cmon guys someone got to know answers to these. i also want to add that:
7- Are apps stored in root directory or sd card section which doesnt effect from wipe?
3. Nothing AFAIK. I haven't used it till now.
6. You can try out the Touchscreen sensitivity solution in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1336464
7. If you are wiping from Stock Recovery then everything including sdcard partition will be wiped.
If you are wiping from CWM Recovery then only data and cache partition will be wiped. sdcard partition will be intact.
I don't know rest of the answers as i own a wifi tab and Market is available here
Yes i have tried that touchscreen app but i didnt notice any difference tbh. I didnt have any sensitivtity issues tough maybe it's an issue on wifi tabs
Its very visible when you draw something like while using pen memo

1. Kies reckognises only stock ROM's. Overcome is modded.
2. Usualy yes. If you use multiCSC then you have 1st rom on the list installed. (experience from my SGS and zillion of flashing)
3. No, nothing at all. It's "%&#@%$£" anyway.
4. No need. Root device, use Market enabler from market, fake provider to T-mobile and that is it. But only if your country is on google checkout list. If it is not, your credit card will not be accepted.
5. On SGS I haven't notice any significant changes.
6. No. I have P1010 and I think I'll get me one P7510, so I don't know the device yet. For now I can't suggest nothing.
7. Answered. But warning, if you change CSC all settings are going to stock. Including apps.

thanks for your clear response. turkey is on the google checkout list, in fact i've been using it since last year. i tried market enabler before, i faked my provider to T-mobile as you said and finally i could access US market but still it didn't allow me to purchase anything although i purchased many software from google in past
I allso have problem with my P1010 (wifi only). I can't search or download anything. But I can buy whatever I want for my SGS (weird). So I buy and download to phone and transfer it to tab.

Do you have an android phone? Use market enabler on there to purchase your apps. They should then be available to you when you click 'my apps' in market (listed at the bottom under heading installed apps) from your tab. Install from there.
