[Q] Why the results of the search in the store of my wife L920 are different? - Nokia Lumia 920

When I search for apps at my wife's L920, the results are different than mine. For exemple, the app "[+] Lockscreen Style" in my Lumia is free and in her Lumia is paid! Some apps do not even appear in her lumia! Why? Can anyone help me?
Thanks!

Does the Microsoft Accounts for each phone have the same location? I think apps can have different pricing for different markets.

Yes, both have the same location

It sounds like you're having a similar issue as me. My housemate was able to download the PayPal app fine, but it won't even show up in results for me, and when I do find an external link to load the app page, it says "This app is not available for your device".

Exactly

For PayPal specifically, the app was pulled out for a little while. It's available again.

You can try again and PayPal should be available for everyone now.

PlayStation Official App not available for AT&T?

Just saw the PlayStation app just came out yesterday and naturally wanted to download it. When to the Android Market on the PC as I usually do to install, and it says "This item is not available for your carrier" just as it does when you try to install Barnacle - a prevention from AT&T.
What's up with that???
I just tried also. Same error as you.....THis network makes some of the worst decisions for customers

The app is only available in Europe right now.
But I guess you can still download if you have root:

Good call! Even easier than using MarketEnabler which I did shortly after I made the post, forgot all about being able to fake providers right off the phone.... Gotta remember that for the future....
did anyone who tried this have any success in using tha app as intended in the US?
Yeah it works fine, it doesn't really have much functionality beyond checking which of your friends are online, but yeah it works.
The app works except i can't login. I try and it leads me to the login page again saying it cant find the redirect or something.

Keep trying - it didn't work the first time I fired it up, so I tried again and it worked just as it should. Quite limited as SG Pillar stated, but it works. Keep it on your phone and update when applicable, should be more functions to come just like the PSN as we all know....
there's also a 3rd-party app called "PS3 Friends" which works well for seeing who's on your PSN.

I didn't think this was piracy, they are running a promotion. If it is, I can take it down.
its not promotion..Its the new way to make money off paid by giving it for free......developed by Getjar....its not piracy at all,I dont know how it works....I downloaded BW from there long time ago and still running rock solid...
Guys, this is not piracy, it's a new "Gold App Sale" by Getjar. There's some great apps in there too!
the only thing i cant get to download on the TP is Tapatalk
edit: anyone know a quick download code?
Seems like some cool apps here not sure how to get them on the touchpad though as it doesn't seem to be a supported device.. Any ideas? Where do I get the getjar app I don't see it on their page anywhere...
use the default android browser and make sure you have it set to mobile. when you browse to http://m.getjar.com it will auto download the apk and you can install that way

Same here, get the message "no compatible downloads for unknown android 2.3"
Sent from my Touchpad using xda premium
I was able to get Tapatalk, although it gave me an error the first time I tried.
I was also having issues downloading at first using Dolphin browser, but using the stock browser it worked just fine. The first time I tried to DL an app, it said I needed GetJar and linked me to the file.
do you think you can use your PC browser and the quick download code and post it here? what device do you have it set to? I'm currently set on "Free Download".

Love the folks that cry piracy w/o FIRST checking the link. Stop policing unless you're a mod.
so.... how they make money on such promotions "paid for free"?
those apps are modified or all-the-same like orginal android market versions?

they're different in the fact that they are currently updated very slowly... getjar just made it available to have developers push their updates... before, you had to know there was an update and redownload the app... i got my first push yesterday, so i see it's working
getjar makes money by sponsors... you'll see them throughout the site
Same problem as other, when i search/enter the code for the app (in my case it's Tweetcaster Pro, Tapatalk and Splashtop Remote Desktop) i get the "no compatible version for my device" text which is ridiculous because i have a Captivate and the Android Market shows those apps just fine. Any ideas? Can someone post the .apk i mean if they are free its not illegal right? And also if i get the .apk, will it update automatically when with the new push system from GetJar?

Thanks, it only worked for Splashtop, TweetCaster Pro and Tapatalk keep saying the device is not compatible i mean wtf!?!? I tried with GS II and Galaxy Nexus and both say not compatible. Anyone that has already downloaded Tapatalk from the GetJar app can tell me the device they are using and the name code so i can modify the Build.prop and download the app.
ro.product.model=GT-i9100
ro.product.brand=samsung
it has worked with everything in getjar... i have a crash here and there but they all have downloaded...
if you've changed this... reboot... it took awhile for google's android market to see the change... i probably restarted 3 times... even went into webos once and back to cm7...
the only thing i've had a problem with working at all (it did download) is Advanced Task Manager
i get:
Sorry! The application Advance Task Manager (process con.arron.taskManager) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
edit:
just tried another app... Aces Jewel Hunt downloaded and installed but closes right after the splash screen opens
Yhea i tried with that. i wasn't able to download the Splashtop before changing the build.prop and after changing that and rebooting i could. But i couldn't download the other two apps, i mean i even tried going on the browser to getjar.com and changed my device to the i9100 and even there i can't seem to get the code for the download because i get the same message that my device isn't compatible and im talking about the PC browser. Im gonna change again to the i9100 on the phone and wait a day or so and try again from the app, i don't understand why i have to do all this the app should be compatible.
Thanks again for the suggestions though

Can't install Splashtop on my 10.1. Incompatible?

I tried to download Splashtop in the market but got this message "This app is incompatible with all of your devices." I attached the screen grab here. What's more strange is that I used to be able to download it and use it without any problem. That was before I reset my tablet. Any of you guys out there having the same issue? Any help is much appreciated.
That's strange, I have it on my Tab and am using it almost daily, everything works. But I have a P-7500. Maybe a simple mistake on their part? Or an update that doesn't work with out Tabs yet?
Are you running a stock ROM? Is your Tab rooted? We can help with a little more info

Thanks for all the replies. I appreciate the information. I am using stock. Not rooted. Still can't figure out why though.
Um I was looking at your screenshot and it doesn't even recognized that your have purchased this. I was able to uninstall and install with no issues. Only difference was Market showed I had purchased it. I'm running task13 with Boosted theme. I would send an email to the developer to see what they say or tried to reinstall market on your tab and see if that helps.
installed last night and works slick........great app I am rooted on Task latest slim......dill
Is it possible it isn't available in your country?
Not sure if you can see this if you don't buy the app, but when you click install in a free app and are choosing which device to send it to, it offers some extra info if your device is unsupported (for instance "this application is not available in your country" etc)

Thanks for the reply. I have seen "not available in your country" message before for some other apps but not this one. I installed it before but that was the trial version. Anyhow, I will try getting into market using a VPN and see what happens. Thanks everyone.

Tried both resetting the tab and accessing Market using VPN. Now "Splashtop Desktop Remote" doesn't even come up. All I got is this (shown in the picture attached). I am just really puzzled.
Guys, thanks so much for all your replies and input. I just decided I can't be bothered with it any more. I give up. Thanks.
Sorry to hear you couldn't make it work... as a last idea, did you try emailing their support team? They might have a solution for you, or at least tell you what exactly the problem is
Is this app free? i browse from my PC and it show that is is a paid app.

Porn in search results! :(

Hey,
I have a weird problem.... Sometimes (like 2-3 times since i bought my phone in june) i search for something and then a pornpage shows up instead of the searchresults. I use chrome. Believe it or not, but i have never searched for porn or watched porn on my phone....
Anyone who can help me troubleshoot this?
PS! Please, if you cant control yourself and have to answer something stupid, then try to ignore this post.
Thanks
Could looks like network spoofing, do you trust your network provider ? I mean, are you connected to a free hotspot ?

You'll never hear me complain about that!
Does an actual website show up? And if so, same one every time? Or are the search results returning porn sites?
Assuming it's an actual site. So you type in the search bar, hit "search" and the site just pops up?
Are you absolutely sure you are on Google when searching? Maybe it's a spoofed web address made to look like it that you somehow bookmarked... Or are you searching in the chrome address bar?

Doesnt have to be a suspect app could just be one that has an agreement with an ad company to make more money from the app
I had some free moving wallpapers installed for my children.
But there actually is a lot of "extras" installed and not always cleanly removed when removing the app.
I ended up wiping the phone and start fresh.
OK thanks guys for quick responses Most probably an app that's causing it. Weird that they can overrule chrome's searchresults...

Nop, you are getting search suggestion on what have you searched. That's why I have the web search history turned off: https://history.google.com/history/?hl=en&ctz=-120
you can also out-out here: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/ or remove the porn websites from your "interest" list
are you logged in to your google account on your PC or laptop? and is someone else using it? If so maybe chrome synced search results from pc to your phone

Spoofing device to install apps "not available" for your phone

I found a thread on XDA earlier that was a way of getting market apps that weren't available for your device without editing build.prop but I can't find it now. I figured this might be helpful for others as well with the S4.
The app I am trying to install is a Canon camera operation app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.pixela.cameraaccess&hl=en

The link you posted is for CameraAccess, though your post says Canon camera operation app.......
When I click on the link and view in browser, it tells e it's available. However, when I search it does not come up. I went to the online play store into my settings and it seems that play store has it listed as a Nexus, but when I go to search for the link that you posted, it does not come up.

This is actually an official Canon Vixia app to operate their camcorders. But I can't get it working. when I search on my phone it doesn't show up either assuming that is because it isn't available on my device.
