I searched every webpage I could reach for an answer, but I did not found anything...
Build : GINGERBREAD.XXKPE
I had an issue - a lot of the Market apps did not appeared in my search results although I had the same settings with 2 friends with identical devices. So, I downgraded Market from v2.3.6 to v2.3.4. The initial problem remained, so I made a modification in the Maturity of the Market apps and now I can search the whole Market. I tried every way possible to get back Android Market 2.3.6 but it is impossible to find a guide... Is it possible to help me with this, or I have to reset the device to factory settings?
To uninstall Market 2.3.6..
I rooted the device - I just unroot it with the info posted here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1034145
...BTW, there is a little mistake in section E ... ("upd_1.zip" >> "unroot.zip" /// "rooted S5830" >> "unrooted S5830")

Hi,
I've got an Archos 43 IT with dual boot UrukDroid 1.5 and the stock fw. I had the latest version of the market running there (+market fix, installed by arctools) and all worked just fine. But since a few days ago the market only shows very few apps (like 2-3 each section) in both (stock and ud). When I try to install apps over the official market-homepage, I get the message like this (translated): "This App isn't compatible to your Archos A43-Device."
What can I do here? Does anyone have the same problem?
A few days ago in another post I read about a pro here, who managed to replace the file which told the market, that it is an A43 by an other one (i think, it was a samsung galaxy), but I can't find the thread/post anymore. I guess this should solve my problem, but I don't know which file it was, anymore.
Does anyone know, which post this was (link)/which file?

You can change the setting at content filtering to show all app.
For market app, you may reinstall it from arctools.
Hi,
thanks for your reply.

Do you mean in the settings-menu under "select level"? All the checkboxes are activated with me.

EDIT:
I even tried applying the fix again but it didn't work
EDIT 2:
I now managed to find the post I mentioned in my first post. It was here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11113696&postcount=3
But when I tried modifying my /system/build.prop, I was very surprised to see, it already had the galaxy-footprint, the line containing Archos was only put as a comment (Does this come by UrukDroid as default?). So this doesn't seem to work either...
I am still having the same problem I've tried everything i can think of fix unfix un reinstall edit build.prop and i think posted on the other thread you mentioned. And I'm having the same problem on my stock installation too. Anyone else have any ideas.

I now managed to get the fingerprint of a Motorola somewhat... (ro.build.fingerprint=verizon/voles/sholes/sholes:2.2/FRG01B/45394:user/release-keys)
Doesn't seem to do any change... Do I have to do anything to apply the changes in the build.prop? I tried reboot, clearing cache and data of the market and the google-services-framework. Anything else I have to do?
So, I got all the apps back . What I did was the following:
First I switched my fingerprint back to the Galaxy one. After that I rebooted my device and went to (the menu-points are translated by me, so it might not be the exact name) Settings -> Applications -> manage Applications -> Market -> Clear Cache, Clear Data, Force Stop.
Does this work for you as well, jared?

I just recevied a Kyros 7125 and have been unable to find specifc info for rooting, roms,or updating market. Im wondering if it is under a different model number,or just not possible.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
I was able to get Amazon App Market to install and run most apps ok. Still havn't found a working Google Market upgrade.
This is an OK tablet. I got one for my kid, and it works for her. Check the link below and download the file on the first link.
If you don't have CWM, it's ok. You just have to do a factory reset: Menu --> Settings --> Privacy --> Factory Data Reset. Then just follow all the directions and install apks in order done in video. I was ready to give up on this tablet and just chalk it up to garbage. This truly has the Android experience after doing this.
On another note, please be aware that some apps are not available with this market install. My work around that, I just downloaded whatever applications I wanted to my SGSII and used appsaver app to extract APK and transfer it to the Kyros. I had to do that to install Flash Player and Netflix. I also did the same for the Amazon App Store. Which by the way, works excellent.

First of all - if this is the wrong section, then i'm terribly sorry.
I have a serious issue with my Goclever A93 tablet. Some time ago i've decided to root the device as well as remove some of the useless, bundle apps however i do think i've removed a little too much.
The problem is the tablet properly uses the sync option to sync emails with my google account however i'm not able to download ANY app from Google Play Store. Whenever i'm trying to do so (either update a pre-installed app or simply download a new one), the download simply freezes.
IN other words, i select either UPDATE or DOWNLOAD for an app, then hit the ACCEPT & Download button and that's it. There is an information "Downloading ...", the progress bar is moving HOWEVER the download never starts!
I've tried a huge variety of solutions - i've updated the tablet's software (from 4.0.4 to 4.0.4 but a newer build), updated Google Play app to 3.5.19 (newest i guess), removed external SD card, did dozens of factory resets -still nothing.
I'm guessing, again, that i've removed too much system apps while in the root mode, nevertheless i do not know which ones i'm missing ;(
The device still has a warranty however if anyone has any idea how to fix the issue without sending the device for a repair - i'd be much obliged.
plz hlp ;( ;( ;( ;(
I had simillar problem after the root with my goclever. You need to do a full format via Livesuite. At the beginning the software ask for the format mode; manditory or upgrade you need to choose the 1st one and confirm twice. suggested upgrade mode doesn't help in case of this problem.
Thank you Pawel, unfortunately this is not the case :/
I've tried simply every method i found on the net - i've flashed the device using the newest IMG from goclever.com site (dated to 29072012), i've installed the newest G Play App (3.8.19 i assume), i've formated the device like bilions of times, removed the external SD card.
The only apps/games i can install from the market are those over 50MB (which require donwloading additional file through WiFi); i've managed to install Batman and some other games but only because the additional file was required for download. As for the rest of the apps - NO method works.
I guess i'll need to send this since the warranty is still valid
ok, found a solution. It turns out GoClever screwed the system IMAGE up. Reverted back to the older rom and it's working fine.
**EDIT** After reinstall step by step(?) BusyBox again i got not more problems with GSII_Repair and got my IMEI, SIM and all working, i guess i did something wrong when installing BusyBox first time. The only problem i got now come from that i cant play videos from Dailymotion on browsers like Opera or Firefox; All the other videos play fine(youtube, vk....), but when trying to play a video from dailymotion says that media is not supported( this in opera and firefox), but using the Dailymotion app all videos i tried work fine. I want to say that before i lost IMEI and tried tons of solutions, videos from dailymotion worked pretty well, and by now i think is cause of the root i made, that is listed below. Tried installing flash player and nothing. Any ideas?. i will keep searching!, thanks for your time.
**Old and Desperated explain of my solved problem (Thanks to GSII_Repair and Patience)**
Here im going to try to explain my problem the best possible to try to find a solution without sending it to techincal service.
After reboot my device it stopped detecting SIM card, and the IMEI was null when typing *#06#. I never touched the android operating system even to update it, was the stock ROM. I entered this 'world' yesterday cause of need, so i might being telling you incoherent things, that and my english is bad, so sorry in advice.
Info about my device:
-Android Version: 2.3.5
-Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKJ3-CL647431 [email protected]#2
-Compilation Number: GINGERBREAD.BGKJ3
-Model Number: GT-I9100
What i have tried?:
-To root my device with this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...12-k-la-lp-t1103399/post14283342#post14283342.
Wanted to root to try to use GSII_Repair. Root worked but kept getting problem with GSII_Repair, the 3 steps: program kept telling me i needed to fix my BusyBox(Which is installed). Also wanted to try to flash with the oficial ROM 2.3.5 again but didnt find any link alive to download it.
- Factory data reset (Ended with worse situation, cause cant use google play or concnet to wifi)
-Tried with the 9 steps guide in this forum to recover the IMEI, but cant delete 'efs' folder cause 'the data system is only for reading', was using root explorer. (didnt check a lot in the comments cause no time)
Curious thing is my efs folder is there and i think it got all inside, i did a zip file (with root explorer) and saved it to my pc. All the apps im using on my device come from my pc cause i cant use wifi nor google play aka market.
I might be forgetting things, so i will try to update this post even if we find a solution. Thanks again for your time.
I feel like there should be a thread that is general for all devices that describes build.prop files necessary to trick google play into thinking that you have a device that IS compatible with the app that you are trying to download.
I know that there are countless threads and blogs with the info on what is necessary TO change:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1948558
http://www.littlegreenrobot.co.uk/tutorials/edit-build-prop-for-extra-compatibility/
just to name a couple.
But they don't tell you what to change it to!
They say edit this field, but with what!?
I come to you out of sheer frustration as I want to install the latest ESPN FF apk on google play but the option to install isn't there as the application is "incompatible with my device." (I even went so far as to download the apk from apkpure.com and it apparently has a problem parsing the package for installation)
If I have 4.4.2 on my note 2 it'll work great, but I don't like 4.4.2 so I went back to 4.3 and I told my phone (in the build.prop) that it is now a 5.0.2 samsung galaxy S6+ (see attached image for confirmation)
Yet here I sit, still not compatible.
I don't understand what I am doing wrong. Am I missing one field? Can any of you please show me the way?
I also tried the market helper app as well:
http://codekiem.com/2013/02/13/market-helper/
It too did not work.
Thanks.
