Is there a way to get a device bought in the US to recognise that I reside in the UK without rooting?
Cheers
Would it not just load the UK play store automatically if you're in the UK?

You can try market enabler

It should automatically open uk store as it decides wich store to open based on your ip adress.

I just received an invite 4 Google Music Beta. I live in India. I was able to do the download in my PC. But I'm not able to get it installed and linked to my Google account in android.
The problem is
1) the region I'm in is outside US ie India.
2) Market Enabler doesn't work for my handset bcoz its not rooted. Is there any Enabler for non rooted devices.
3) I installed the Google music.apk from a site but was not able to link the Google music to my account. How can I do that.
Please help!

I guess the only way is purchasing USA's SIM-card(prepaid for example), moving to America, or rooting phone. I tried also sign up to music beta, but because I life in Finland, I can't get it...

Conversley just follow the instructions here which should work just fine, but Google music is flawed in that it doesn't support OGG so I have uploaded my entire .mp3 collection of 25 tracks!
Ghostofcain, I guess that link is for rooted user. Do u know a way to get it installed for non rooted devices.

You can use hidemyass.com proxy and send urself a invite from Google music website. I can't send as an individual as Google are the ones sending it.

I don't have an unrooted device to test on but I would be surprised if the googlemusic.apk provided doesn't install as per the official one, and the rest involves using vpn's which I did from my pc not the phone

Not sure if one of those exists...
I don't have it on my tablet, but I use the gogoCLIENT on my PC to get a IPv6 address from the US. Google defaults to IPv6 so I get the US play store on my PC. I can make purchases there which still automatically go to my tablet.
I actually found out by accident as I used it to buy a couple of the 25 Billion Celebration apps via the PC and was surprised to see the US store. In the UK they're 25p and in the US they're 25c, which is about 15p.
You could use a VPN. I use http://www.freehostedvpn.com/usa-free-vpn personally when I'm searching the US market. Haven't had any problems with it so far.

try market enable ，it should work
I use the same superfreevpn method used to get 25$ outside US

I used it but still says incompatible solution?
Incompatible solution? That's a weird error. Maybe you should try using tor to connect? I don't know if it would make a difference.
You should try to reset cache and data in market setting through setting>application in android. Have you tried it?

Works upto the pay stage on me then reverts to GBP any suggestions?
I mean I tried both methods but still dont work its says not available in my country for both methods is there a solution? i hate it when google does this makes free apps not available makes no sense
I faked a US market with marketenabler... Then I made a free account on droidvpn and ran the service... Cleared the cache on play store app.... Then I got US GOOGLE PLAY STORE with books, magazines and all.
But of course you still won't be able to purchase paid stuff because payment is not active here in Egypt yet. But you can get every free US app
Mail me if you still need help.

Do I need root for that and can you tell me a step by step tutorial? Thanks
I just tried Hideman from play store..seems to work well but you only get 5 hrs a week for free. Hulu installed for me but I didn't try to set up an account, kinda worried that a Canadian email/ credit card might not work

Once you root there is an app called Market Enabler that will allow you to change which country the play store thinks you are in.

that is because that developer doesn't support your country
you will get used to it as this happens with a lot of google play apps
and i fell for you cause the same happens to me since i am from iraq
so another way of getting it would be from a site on the internet just make sure it's a free app so that it doesn't count here as warez
Thanks for your reply but the application is for local bank it must be download

In my old phone (S II) I used Market Enabler to overcome this problem. I'm not sure if it still works or not because I stopped using it long time ago, and it's not in the store (at least my country) any more!
Anyway, the app basiclly changes your SIM code to fake the country you are in, and thus enables you to access different stores in different regions (US, UK, China, etc).
Give it a try and see if it will work. The following link gives you a guide through the process: http://androidweeds.com/market-enabler/
Note that your phone has to be rooted for this to work!
All the best

It's crazy, I have an Impulse 4G (Huawei U-8800) from AT&T and Play won't let me get the free AT&T barcode scanner that works really well for me. It's a free app and I managed to find an old version that works well but I would like to upgrade since mine is two versions old.
I guess there's no way to fool Play into thinking I have something else is there? I've searched all over the place and every link points back to Google.

Thanks, that was actually the first thing I tried. It goes through the motions but after it finishes and I log back into Google, it still shows me having the Huawei. I tried it using all three of the devices offered and no change. I did send a feedback email from the app. It was worth a shot though.

That didn't work either, but I used APK Leech to get it and sideloaded. I put in the device # for my Samsung Tab which the app really won't work on that well, but is compatible....go figure.
