[Q] Playstore doesn't match my country - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So i'm currently staying in Malaysia but the Playstore for my device and my browser shown as Indonesia Playstore (the price is in indonesia's currency). Why it doesn't change to Malaysia playstore ?
PS : A couple weeks ago i "played" with proxy to check playstore from another country. Is it because of that ?

yes

try this one.
step one .
settings>manage apps> all wipe cache of playstore
Step two if one doesn't work
do a factory reset if not adjusted after step one .
if still not resolved then use root toolboxpro u need root for it and change the country inside the options .

[Q]Stock ICS roms and languages

Hi all,
As you can see here, there is unfortunately no ICS stock on sammobile.com for the french version.
However, there is one for UK version (and others). Obviously those versions have multiple languages, including mine.
So do you know why there are localized versions ? Are they mandatory ? (or could i simply take one from a neighboor country?)
Thanks all
You can surely flash UK version or Italian as well and when Installing choose Your own language.
I'm from Finland and my rom is originally Italian, no problems with language issue.

Try samsung-updates com
samsung-updates com has many Stock ROMS from various countries, which you can filter by device type. Unfortunately, I have been unable to download any from there since yesterday, as the download fails after a couple of hours.
If you can select the language you want using any country's ROM then I guess the country code just affects Samsungs OTA rollouts and which extra Apps come pre-installed and how they are configured.
Edit: I just installed the USA 4.04 Rom (XAB) on my Canadian (XAC) Tab. Since my Samsung account is registered to a Canadian Tab, Samsung Apps gives me an error if I try to sign in there, but otherwise it works. I'll put the XAC Rom on when I finally manage to download it.

As i don't use Samsung apps but native Google play for applications, i guess i'll give a try and keep you in touch
Thanks for your answer !

Fingerprint missing

Hello comunity ! I bought 2 days ago a Xperia Z5 Compact E5823 model (i live in Romania - Eastern Europe) and when i boot it up i skip everything and update straight to android 6.0.1 .....after factory reset again i see no fingerprint option and have never seen it even in launch configuration startup althow i skipped everything. Now i am reinstalling xperia firmware via companion (recovery mode) to see if the option will be there or not i am so SO dissapointed about this fact .....is it possible that this is a model without the sensor ?

Unfortunately not .....i don't have the option on security (fingerprint missing) ..... i reinstalled 6.0.1 but nothing . Now i am doing 5.1.1 with flashtools to see the result maybe there is still hope ....i see that this is the Z5C E5832 Rev 1.0 so it should have the fingerprint right ? :S or at least if it's not working show it in settings .

hey there.. i`m from romania too.. take a look over here http://www.androidauthority.com/no-fingerprint-sensor-for-us-xperia-z5-z5-compact-667816/ , on short .. if you have an US model you don`t have a fingerprint sensor.. where did you buy it from? your z5c ?
P.S. Tryed 2 versions of android 5.1.1 oficial but none have worked. I see the fingerprint setting now in the security part but after i imput a pin it's going back to security menu like this feature should not be in this phone .... if i test it with *#*#737...... o fingerprint sensor it will exit the test right away .
Anybody fixed this problem or should i call warranty ?
Can't you flash firmware from different region via Flash tool?

Cant install country specific apps

I have a Note 8 (N950FXXU7DSJ1) which I purchased in Saudi Arabia.
I am now living in Philippines and having trouble installing country or region specific apps like Gcash and Angkas. Every time I have to download the apk and install it from the file browser. Whenever there is a new version I have to find the new apk and repeat the process. Its annoying and sometime buggy.
I would like to be able to install aps limited to South East Asia region and to Europe (Croatia) where I am from. What can I do to open the phone to be able to install these apps via Google Playstore?
