how can i change the default location for the market place

There's something on these boards showing away of changing your market ability to purchase or download out of area apps. Failing that, flash a standard version from the boards if u have root see of that unlocks it.

Workaround for paid apps?

Hello,
I live in Poland and we still can't buy paid android apps, which really p*sses me off. Is there an alternative way to buy from the market? I don't want to use pirated software.
Pretty sure if you email the Dec of app you want they will work something out with you. Also try market enabler

Root phone, install Market Enabler which will allow your phone to pretend that it is in a different market (ie one with paid apps available). Works great. I am in Canada, which does not have paid apps yet, and use it to buy apps. This was the main reason I rooted my phone.
I live in Norway and we don't have access to paid apps yet.
I did install Market Enabler, and got access, but when I'm buying, after I've input credicard information, nothing happens. The phone tries to connect and eventually I get an errormessage that a connection could not be etablished (or something in that effect)
I chose Market Enabler 3 (beta) as I'm using a Hero ROM. (Old version does not work), and I choose o2 (de) as provider.
Any tips?
tried using Slideme, it is an alternative market that works outside of the android market.
Thanks for the replies! I rooted my phone finally (using flashrec) and by the way updated to some hero ROM (myhero-1.1.1 to be exact) and used Market Enabler. Works really well so far, I haven't had time to try to actually purchase anything yet, but I can see paid apps now.
I love the HTC Sense look and feel, but I there are some bugs that weren't present in the vanilla magic (skippy music, worse jabber integration, etc).
It's amazing how easy it is to root and flash your phone these days, I remember last time I was thinking about it the howto scared the hell out of me. And I'm a developer (just a lazy one).
Just purchased my frist app on Android Market
There was one issue, maybe this will help someone: When I entered my credit card details on my phone it didn't work - there was some kind of server error. I had to go to google checkout using browser on my computer, enter my cc details and then I was able to buy apps off android market.

Try setting up your Google checkout account using a PC based browser. Once you do that you should only be shown the price and have to confirm to buy.
That worked for me.

you gotta fine "market enable" in the market. its free. it will stimulate the market and make your operator change to other operator just like t-mo, then u'll be able to search paid apps.

Incorrect location data?

Hey,
Working from rc1 of cm6, it seems when any app that uses location data such as the weather in fancy widget or anything like that reports the zip code being 4. Just 4, not even a full zip code. Maps however finds my location without a problem.
Anyone know why this might happen? Fresh install.
Thanks in advance.

Not sure about the other apps but the news & weather widget that comes with the phone decides its topic based on ur phones language & keyboard settings.
So if its set to UK, you will see UK news and if set to US, then, well, US news
If you reside elsewhere, one workaround is to download MoreLocale 2 from the market. It changes the language & keyboard settings to what you want, thereby getting the news widget to display the correct news of your location.

[Q] How to buy paid apps from market (Rooted NC)

Hello,
I want to buy a few paid apps (ezPdf, Doc2go) for nook color. But the market displays only free apps. How do I buy some paid apps?
Thanks
My market shows paid apps and I'm able to install and use them just fine.
What method to get the marketplace did you use?
Might want to try again using autonooter.
i can only see free apps there, but i think it is because of a restriction for paid apps for my country..... as i understand, there is only a few countries that can access the paid applications.
they dont want us to do piracy... but they dont allow us to pay for apps.....
i have the same problem, i heard something about a market enabler app, but i'm still a noob yet
Also have the same issue any fixes ?
i installed a program called Market Access which spoofs the SIM card information to the market so it thinks you are from an authorized country.
now all paid apps are displayed for me
the program can be found here:

This is likely your problem if you are overseas. I have a similar issue in Korea. Video games in Korea are required to have their content reviewed and rated so they are only sold to the appropriate ages. Consequently all games on the Korean Android market have been blocked in Korea because of the lack of a rating system on the Android Market.
I use an app called MarketEnabler (looks like the same thing as the Market Access app linked to you above) to get around this problem. It basically lets me access markets from other carriers in other countries. It may be available on your Android Market. Send me a PM if you are unable to find a solution on your own.

[Q] WorldMate

Anyone have the latest World Mate app? When I log in to the Market place it says this item is not available on my carrier.
Need some help as the on I have seem to be corrupted.
I found a way to get it...I used market enabler and set it to Rogers in Canada and there it was on the market. just wish I had the apk for future use
