SOLVED - changing your android market to a different country

PROBLEM SOLVED !!!
This works on my Bell Vogue, with Myn Warn Donut RLS5 on nand, to access Canada only apps such as the TD Bank app.
Get the application "market enabler" from here. I went to one of the linked download sites the author uploaded the app to.
Look up your 6 digit network code from this long list and enter it into the market enabler custom field.
Voila !
----------------------------------------------------
I am running Myn's warm donut on my Vogue here in Canada on the Bell Mobility network.
I wanted to install thhttp://code.google.com/p/market-enabler TD bank app, which is only available through the Canadian android market. I'm guessing because my ROM is based on a US carrier's ROM that I am accessing the USA android market. I can not find the TD bank app.
I tried the locale settings but English-Canada is not even an option.
I assume this issue is not limited to warm donut.
Is there a way I can get my phone to access the Canadian android market?
Thanks in advance.

the TD Bank App isn't available yet! It was on the marketplace a few days ago but it was only for a short time as it was released accidentally. I am on Bell and I saw the app using Myn's Warm Donut rom so when it is actually released you should be able to get it!
There is actually a news piece over at MobileSyrup about the TD bank app that talks about the release!

I did read several articles on it including that one. My understanding is that the app IS available now, even TD's website claims it is. What the articles said was that TD in error released their app to the global android market. When they realised this, they quickly withdrew it from the global market, and made it available only on the Canadian android market.
That is why several non-Canadian sites became aware of it, and likely how you briefly saw it using your Myn's warm donut ROM, until it was quickly withdrawn from the global market.
Here's the scoop from androidspin. com
The mystery of the vanishing app has been solved. To refresh, yesterday’s market-fresh apps post included a pretty nice looking app for TD Bank of Canada. An astute reader pointed out the app was now missing, so I put detective Matthew Cram of corporate and public affairs of TD Bank on the case. His answer is elementary:
The TD mobile app for Android is only available via the Canadian Android Market. There was a brief (one hour) window last week where our Android mobile app was mistakenly made available globally. I assume that’s when you saw it?
We hope to have a U.S. version of the TD mobile app for Android ready by late summer.
Cheers,

So anyone north of the border should still be able to find the TD app in their market, and it looks like us Americans will have a TD app of our own in a few months. Case closed!

installed the warm espresso theme and then a lot more regions were available in local settings !?
selected english canada, but still the us market
rebooted - still the us market - no td bank app
(I am in Canada on Bell)
anyone know how to change app market country?

Looking forward to this being figured out. I have myn's warm donut rls 5, wish i could get that TD app.

boing - er bump !

You are the man!, worked like a charm in Central America, thank you very much

Ive been looking for this for months!!! works great, in canada, on vogue, bell network

Not working here...

IS there a way to do this without rooting? thanks.

I'm in a closed circle
I want to download rom manager which is not available in the market of my devices country, the enabler needs rooting (I'm not sure if it will work with HtC desire hd android 2.3) and rooting needs visionary+ and it's not working on this Os version..it's like endless thread...anyone has an idea?
Thanks!

Wrong thread. Please, delete this post.

Changing you country in the root code
Does anyone know how to do this, i'm trying to use the Market Enabler but it is not working. my code is listed as china and i,m in the US HELP please.

Thanks for this advice, but the linked-to list doesn't show 6-digit codes. I see a 3-digit MMC and a 2-digit MNC. What 6-digit code are you referring to here?
Thanks

OK I am confused, I have an HTC My Touch Slide running 2.2.1 (T-Mobile) I am using it here in the Philippines I wanted to get my banking software off the Marketplace, just rooted the phone, can now run 2 different Market Enablers, both work... I change the location, now I see everything in the Marketplace in US dollars HOWEVER the software is still unavailable because I am not in the US, how do I fix this? I much appreciate the help!

We got a problem Hustom
Hi team,
I have a Galaxy S3 GT-I9300, Romanian SIM card, operator Orange.
Device is not rooted.
I Launch Market Enabler > Set Custom tab > and input the MNC and MCC for Italy, operator TIM (22201) > Set to this values
If I go to Settings List tab > long press [it]TIM > select fake this provider now, it is still showing "we got a problem Houston"
I tried with original SIM card in and out of the phone, and different combinations.
Why is it now working? what am I missing? (brains, i know.)
Thank you in advance,
Dan

Samsung releases "Samsung Dive"...

researching something else, came across this - samsung just released "samsung Dive" in Germany & UK - an app that lets you wipe or lock your phone remotely if lost or stolen
http://www.slipperybrick.com/2010/07/samsung-dive-remotely-locks-wipes-your-wave-galaxy-s-for-free/

I just signed up for it and tried it. Annoying that they're not enabling the tracking service depending on the country, wavesecure does that and more... If there a way to work around it by a proxy or such?

how do you sign up on the galaxy s? i cant seem to find what its asking for, and there is nothing in the user guide about the galaxy s

you need to sign up via the application within the phones app

where is that exactly? i cant seem to find it, thanks in advance!

From homescreen, go into settings -> location & security -> set mobile tracker
Have fun

You need a Samsung account first. In settings go to the area where it allows you to add various accounts like facebook/gmail and add a samsung account... then go to http://www.samsungdive.com/index.do
then enable mobile tracking ...
login with the account you made etc
full instructions are on that website ...

Thats the problem, in the account settings there is no samsung option, just google, facebook, myspace,twitter and corporate. and the instructions on the website are for the S8500 Wave, not the Galaxy S. enabling mobile tracker in security doesnt work, as again, there is no option to create an account, so even if it is set up, you cant access it from the website.

Since its not available in the US yet.
SIM Checker
Remote Wipe
Where's My Droid
3 apps will do.

annoyingly, i'm in the uk so it is available where i am, just i cant access it

Anyone managed to sign into the website yet. I can't find any option to create an account on my phone

i figured it out.
in contrast to the website, in order to create your samsung account, you have to enable mobile tracker first. then after setting it up do you get the option to make your samsung account, which is the opposite of the information on the website, saying that you need to make the account first and then enable mobile tracker. hope this helps anyone who was stuck

Brilliant, thanks

I'm trying to sign up for an account now, and it's coming back with an error message, saying "invalid birthday" .... which is odd - I'm fairly sure my birthday is NOT invalid - I am fairly sure I have in fact been born!

Had the same error. Just ignored it and signed up without entering a birthday. When I logged in, my birthday was correctly registered :/

When we know Samsung's skills to implement working and bug free software, do you dare to install that piece of software that can wipe off your phone I'm not sure, if I dare.

The service don't seem to work though. Tried sending a remote lock command, and it said it was successful, but I can still use the phone without providing the lock code.
Might be dependant on TwLauncher though. I use LauncherPro

it says it's only for UK and Germany

Is anyone having any luck signing up with the Web Tracker?
I've got a Galaxy S on Froyo, and it won't let me sign up. I fill in all the fields fine, but then get this error: "Unable to sign up. Processing failed IDM_1105"
Any ideas?

All signed up and seems to be working. Sent a location request and waiting for reply now. The register being hidden under the on screen keyboard did have me stumped for a while. Also date of birth is YYYY DD MM so not easy to get right without an example.

Samsung Galaxy S10 (UAE Version) Region Change

Hello,
I just bought a Galaxy S10 UAE version and was reading around about what is different in this version and if its usable outside UAE. (i don't tend to create posts until I've done a good enough research)
So what i found is that there is no real different between UAE version and other versions, meaning phone will still work outside of UAE and there is no "restrictions" unlike the iphone which is missing the facetime app.
Please correct me if I'm wrong in the above.
My main concern is the forced calendar holidays and similar unwanted apps, therefor i would like to change the OS to a different region.
My questions:
-Which OS should i get from SamMobile and does that mean i have to flash my device?
-In case this was done, will i still receive OTA updates?
Thank you

GW3 Region Change

I bought the GW3 watch yesterday. Unfortunately I live in Gibraltar which for some unknown reason is considered the backwater of the internet and we are blocked by both Google and Samsung - Google does not let us buy anything from Google Play, although we have found a way around that. Samsung goes a step further and we cannot even browse their store
My question is: I've seen videos on how to change the Active 2 region and I'm wondering if there is a procedure for GW3?
Until I change the region I will not be able to get any apps installed other than the ones preinstalled in the watch. BTW I also tried the SDB connect and I cannot connect to the watch even changing the port number...

I was able to connect to the watch and run the launch csc manager code but after the message lunch successful nothing pops up on the watch.
restart the watch and the PC
and try to connect.
But it looks like that the security increased in tizen 5 and the csc pop up doesn't work.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CLnbTZOr_wo&list=WL&index=104&t=0s

has anyone figure out the way to change the region from Canada to US?

Someone wise to help change CSC I want to move from Poland to the USA to have samsung pay. Please.

This popped up on my YouTube recommendations today. How to change regions on the GW3
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EsshQ1-UIoY
Note, I haven't tried this to confirm it works. That will probably be a tomorrow project

Ironrobi it works excellent. I changed my region yesterday and everything works perfectly.
https://ibb.co/w7nmB4h
https://ibb.co/kS07w2T

Can you describe me how to do it exactly, because everything is accelerated at the branch. And if I change to the USA, or XAR, will I have a choice of my language, i.e. Polish, in the watch?

XAR code is for USA and yes if you change it you can switch the language to polish you just have to download it.

But the menu will also be in Poland?

The menu of the watch copies the language from the phone. If you go to your phone's settings -> system -> languages and input -> languages -> add/change to Polish. That should change the language on your watch as well. That works for me if I changed the language to Slovenian. Than everything on the watch is in Slovenian.

I can also confirm it works. Changed region to XAR, got the software update and blood oxygen/stress are now loaded on the watch. Unfortunately still no BP/ECG and trying to sideload through the PC still fails and no luck trying to do the non-pc method with a Huawei phone.

Will this method of changing CSC to Tizen 5.5.0.1 work?

Please note that in order to actually use Samsung Pay, you'll need to have a credit card that supports it / is supported by it. This goes back to your credit card provider supporting Samsung Pay or not. If not, you'll get stuck when Samsung Pay checks the support after entering your credit card number in Samsung Pay.

Also wondering this: Will it also work when the watch is already on BTG6? Anybody tried?

Check out the curve card. It is the card from the UK and you link your MasterCard or Visa to it.
It works with Samsung pay.
If you use the link below you will get £5 on your card.

I managed to get the BP/ECG to work from the instructions for active 2 from TechnoProz.
Just install the first and the second file, and the Samsung Health monitor will appear on your watch. Calibrate the BP and your good to go...

Check if you can set up and use Samsung pay on your S10. If not, it seems that the phone status is not official, Knox is tripped, or it is/was rooted. What about Google pay on the mobile? Does this work?
