Try looking up the location history. Also try installing a tracking app like Prey

Try AndoidLost from the Play store. If you can get it installed remotely it might help. I have it installed on mine and the testing I have done works good. Good luck!!

unfortunately, if you didn't install a tracking app before, you are probably screwed. Plan B only works with android 2.3 and down, and nothing else I know of can be installed after the fact.

Droidlost will install on a phone remotely and can be ran via SMS if necessary. Not going to work the same on a tablet bit if it still on your Google account it should work.

What about using latitude in google maps to find its location?

So far, you get an error when trying to sign in. Here is the link to the market:
http://market.android.com/
cant sign in with my account says "Invalid Request" interesting idea! tho
Man, i just got done watching the live stream of the conference and he said it was already live and he encouraged everyone to go check it out, but yes I am getting an invalid request
In app purchases are coming soon though, the demo they showed was pretty cool. Also, it looked as if you wont be required to do purchases directly through google checkout, as the demo just used a credit card to make an in-app purchase. Carrier billing will also be an option.

Yea, sign in works but it still can't install to devices. I am getting sick of Google introducing half-baked, untested things to the masses. Do they ever release something not in beta?

That last part is the error I got while it was parsing my device list.
I just gave it a try and it worked perfectly for me. Signed in with one click and it installed the app within seconds.
Works for me too!

Almost half a dozen people had the same issue.
They only just got the sign in issue fixed.
Works on solitare but , not for pandora.
I was able to get signed in but when inputting my phone number I got an error. Now when I try to install an app I get "There are no android phones associated with this account. Please sign in with a different account." I've had my phone and gmail account synched up for over 6 months now, what gives!?
No issues here....

Yeah I did the same thing. I opened the market on my phone, installed a couple of apps, updated a few, still not showing as an associated device on the website.

1.i can use multiple accounts to log in to market frm my phone ?
2.Install apps from the comp...if yes then how ?
Sorry to be such a Duh..but i don really get the new market thing.

Basically it allows you to have multiple phones attached to the same account. To install apps go to market.android.com sign in to your account and then you can browse and install apps. As others have noted though, there are still some hang-ups in the system.
Keep an eye on youtube.com/android and soon they will post a recap of todays conference (not up yet)

Locked out of US Play Store

I travel in and out of the US a couple times a year. ATM, I have a US payment method and address, I'm in the US using a T-Mobile SIM. I can't access country-restricted apps, such as Pandora and Hulu. According to MarketHelper (or whatever it was called) I am T-Mobile US. I've called contacted Google, and they've refused support since I'm running a custom ROM (CM nightlies). Hence two questions:
Any ideas about the market issues?
How can I revert to stock and be able to come back to CM easily? I can't make a nandroid because I have 10GB of Google Music.

try clearing the data for the market app, then reopen it and log in.
Google had me do that, and also the data for Google Play services. By logging back in, do you mean delete my Google account from sync settings and re-add it?

no. when you open the play store after deleting data, it asks you to accept terms of use. i meant that.

Google uses a combination of the country your email address was reg in, as well as a few other things to determine what country store your app uses.
That's unfortunate, but how can I force it to reset? I don't even remember what country my email was registered in, but I'm sure in the US now and have been for the last year. I can confirm it's account related because I logged into another account and it works fine.

Only way is to contact google about it and tell the what is going on. They maybe be able to help you but dont hold out to hope.
Yes, they're support is pure garbage. I've been in contact with them but they're really no help.
Try going to Google Play My Account > Settings and confirm the carrier and device is correct. Next, try to install Pandora to the device. If it wont, it tell you why.
As I said previously is T Mobile US and I can't install Pandora. It seems to be an account issue because with a different account on my phone or on the website I can install Pandora

Try installing it from the web site with the same account that does not work on your phone. I may hint as to why it won't install.
When I had my Nexus S in Paris on SFR SIM, I was able to install SFR apps, but not update some US restricted ones, so I believe the market is tied to the SIM card, regardless of where the Google account was created. Other services, like Google Voice would depend on where the account was created (US only).
SIM, payment method, addresses are all US now.
I can't install even from the web (using my account).
With a different account I can install from my phone or web.
From the website it says: "This item cannot be installed in your device's country"

OK, your account still thinks you have a NON US SIM card. Power off, remove the SIM, power on and connect to WiFi. Check the web and see if the carrier clears itself. If you have market enabler installed, remove it, or try a different US carrier.
This is a bit of a stretch, but could you make a new gmail in the U.S and just use that one for the market?

I can confirm this works, I logged in from my work gmail and it works just fine. It seems like it would be a radical step to switch my Gmail account though. Theres gotta be a better way.
I called again, and this time they had me do something similar but slightly different (and ridiculous if you as me). I went to a paid app that WAS available to me (I randomly chose Minecraft) and I clicked buy (it was showing the wrong currency but I clicked anyhow) and then accepted the permissions, leading me to the next screen, which is a confirmation screen, in which the app will be purchased if you hit buy again but you don't, and you hit back and go back to the app. At this point you exit the Play Store and then (without force stopping it) you clear its data. You open it again, accept the terms and voilá! At least in my case this solved it, for some reason...
I must add that I removed foreign credit cards from google wallet (which according to previous conversations with them should have been a non-issue unless it was selected as default, which it never was), that I had on file but haven't used lately, so maybe that was related and that + a wipe of play store data was needed, I guess I'll never know now...

Hangouts is pretty much just a Google Talk replacement at the moment. It doesn't unify anything.

Well, it totally screws up the easy way of cross compatible situation that Gtalk provided with XMPP. So many Messengers on various Computer Systems, incl. Android and iOS could connect to a Gtalk account. Now thats all over. What has that to do with unifying ? Sounds more to me like "limiting".
I suppose, since Gtalk was a major part in Android, one that I believe cannot/could not be uninstalled (please correct me if I am wrong here), we can't uninstall Google Hangout now. Right ? Since if it replaces Talk, it must be a part of the System that can't be uninstalled. Or please tell me that its no problem to uninstall it ?
Any info is appreciated.
Thank you.

Does anyone know if Google will also disable the Gtalk Servers with the use for Gtalk compatible XMPP apps on for example PC or if that is still running a while ?

I uninstalled it with Titanium Backups. Now its gone. Can I go back to Gtalk again and if, will it next time be automatically updated with Hangouts again since Google wants to get rid of Gtalk ? Does anyone know if Gtalk (in general) still works as for the Servers, so I could use it on a PC with some alternate Messenger.
Any info on that is appreciated.

You can go back to gtalk,put the file back to the path,and reboot
When I updated gtalk to hangouts, PC termination had worked as usual.
I think automatically update of gtalk will be successful next time.

If I understand you correct, I could put in TALK again but next time (or soon) it will be updated automatically to Hangout again, since that is what Google will force on everyone. So there is no point in putting Talk back I suppose. I just hope they keep the XMPP Servers running for Talk to be used on other Systems like PC. So many nice apps that can be used with Gtalk. Pidgin, Miranda etc.

yes, you are right.
I also like XMPP Servers, but talk combine with google+ message, what a pity.
If you're on a computer, go to Google plus page and turn hangouts on, there is a green line under the picture of contacts who are online. My list of contacts that show are just frequently used ones though. I know this isn't the same but maybe it will show up in the app soon.
ya its a great design but really missing the simple facts.
GOOGLE if you're reading this, combine all the servers into one.
it is still called talk and still looks the same, however apparently I already have the hangout update... what can I do? I rebooted my nexus twice and talk is still there.
It doesnt look the same at all actually. Lol. if it looks the Same for you, it hasn't been rolled out to you yet. there is a phandroid article with a link to the app itself and you can just install it manually.

finally, looks completely different. love it.
according to phandroid it will support sms in a future update.
I removed it completely. If I can't have Google Talk, I dont want that Hangout stuff at all. Google totally screwed up something great XMPP cross-platform stuff which no Google+ or Google Hangout can replace. Not everything wants to be done on a phone, tablet or Browser.

[SOLVED]Play Store Can't Download Any Paid Apps - Error BM-CCH-19

Alright so this issue has been plaguing me for the past few days and so far I have not found any solution. Every time I try to buy a new paid app from the play store it gives me the following error "We were unable to verify your account information. Please visit wallet.google.com/manage in order to resolve this issue. [BM-CCH-19]". Also I can download any other free app or previously purchased paid apps with no problem. I went to the link in the error and signed in but it wants me to fill in my SSN and other such details but I simply don't want to do that unless there's no other way to resolve the issue as I'm underage. Here's everything that I've tried so far that's been unsuccessful :
Deleting the hosts file
Clearing the Play Store Cache and Data
Clearing Google Services Framework Cache and Data
Downgrading / Upgrading Google Play Store version
Installing a modded version of the Google Play Store
Removing and Readding my account
Factory Reseting
Flashing a Fresh stock version of my firmware
I honestly don't know what else I should do here other than trying to contact the wallet team itself. If anyone could assist me with this endeavor I would greatly appreciate it. SIDE NOTE - I do have root access in case that's needed.
So is anyone able to assist me or am I just going to have to submit my sensitive info to google?

I tried some of the solutions but in the end it was a no go. I ended up contacting google play earlier and they said they disabled the account for "verification" issues and that they would need to verify that I was the actual account holder and what not. The guy spoke on the phone with said he'd send my issue over the the risk team and have someone who's underage email me about the issue but they still haven't gotten in touch with me. The only email I got was from the guy who I was speaking with and it was basically the exact same thing in the OP. I might try contacting them again tomorrow if I don't hear anything else back because honestly this is getting ridiculous. I even verified that the account was mine over the phone by telling them the email associated with the account along with some recently downloaded apps but apparently that's not enough information to re verify my account. Hopefully this dang issue can be resolved soon since I believe I've done everything I can do on my own.
OK Good Luck--:fingers-crossed:
Alright so I ended up contacting them again today and they ended up reopening my account without any issues so problem solved .
Glad you got it sorted--
