Hi, I have the Vivid, AKA Raider -Unlocked-, Rooted with S-ON
I've been trying to download apps like gta, but when I go into my apps, and try to download it, it says "Your device isn't compatible with this version."
My question is how do I make it so that I can download this? I don't have another device I could download it from and move it to or anything..
I would really like to try out some of these other apps out there, but I keep getting the same messege.
Does anyone know of a fix?
I've already tried this method and it didn't work for me.

any suggestions?
You have to edit your build.prop
I edited it to trick it into thinking I had a samsung galaxy note xp there are a couple of threads around
. Change the following values to the ones in bold:
ro.product.model=GT-N700 ro.product.brand=samsung ro.product.name=GT-N700 ro.product.device=galaxynote ro.product.board=MSM8960 ro.product.manufacturer=samsung ro.build.product=galaxynote
Btw build.prop is located in /system

I was running Cognition for a while, and found in market a "quickoffice for captivate". Installed it, used it, worked great.
Re-flashed to Continuum, which is an I9000 based ROM, and now a search for quickoffice for captivate gives me nothing.
Is there some setting in the market based on hardware ID or somethign that's blocking me finding this stuff? If so, what are my options? Some app that enables different markets, or changes some string somewhere for identifying the type of phone? Or what?
Thanks for any tips.
Download galaxy s tools and rub the market fix. (it blocks apps that are not "compatible" with your phone but the fix lets you see all ) hope this helps

Or you could go to the Cognition zip at system/app and copy the quickoffice.apk to your new rom.
or just use this apk
I tried the SGS tools market fix. Didn't change anything. I still can't find it. I'll try the apk. I just was hoping Ii wasn't missing out on other good stuff because of market limitations.

So much for self reliance.
Caution swyping! Read at your own risk.
I installed CM 7.0.3 last Friday, I'm beginning to see more and more apps that say "installed" (from earlier) but trying to re-push them to my phone they now grey out my HTC Hero on Sprint saying the device isn't compatible.
I have the feeling this is an issue of the market assuming my HTC is stock and the newest builds of the apps are not compatible. Is there a way to indicate I'm using Android 2.3.3 so I can have Google Maps back?
I was able to get my Google Music beta as a .apk from someone and it installed fine manually and works great but was another just as above that wouldn't work through the market.
Hey I am having the same problem with the market not recognizing my hero. I am actually just looking for the google music beta app, =P so if you had a link I would appreciate that vmuch.
Look here

There is a copy of the music.apk but I believe you need to have the invite from Google Music Beta first before it will work. I had mine, loaded on PC went to my phone and was as I described above. Got the file from someone and loaded logged in and it works perfectly.
Thank you, I will try the links above
I would say that yes, that is affecting me, but I can't be the only one with a handset that wasn't designed to be running Gingerbread but is obviously compatible.
With all of the ROM community support of aging devices seems there must be a work around for this that is going to start to become a larger problem.
Making sure I make backups of my apps from now on seperately from my CWM recovery backups.
To get Google Music from the market, you have to edit your build.prop file. The instructions are in another thread. A simple search will find it.

change your buid.prop to say device is a "DROIDX", & youll have access to even more apps, & the google music app is in the cdma hero section for download, use the search
just cnanging the banner to droid x wont do it the apps that arnt available for are made for hdpi devices and tablets so when u try and instsall them itll say parse error
In your build.prop located in /system change your ro.opengles.version value from 65536 to 131072. So your end product looks like this: ro.opengles.version=131072
Can you edit that file with an app, or do you need to use adb? I tried using es file explorer but no dice, it's probably in use by the system eh?
Edit: forgot to enable root permissions for it...derp.

I would kill for the JB keyboard for ICS roms, until we get our JB daily driver. Anyone feel like taking this to task? I tried simply extracting the LatinIME.apk and libjni_latinime.so from CM10, but they require API 16, and ICS is API 15. Maybe they can simple be apktool -d'd and then recompiled... I might try that later, but if someone on here with more experience porting apk's wants to chime in, please do! I'm willing to do the work if someone can point me to the correct steps/resources.
So I decompiled the keyboard apk, changed the version in the manifest to 15, recompiled, and now I at least get the option to install the apk (before it wasn't able to parse the package on account of the version mismatch).
Now I'm getting this error:
Code:
W/ActivityManager( 662): No content provider found for permission revoke: file:///system/app/LatinIME.apk
E/PackageParser( 662): Package com.android.inputmethod.latin has no certificates at entry lib/armeabi-v7a/libjni_latinime.so; ignoring!
I have libjni_latinime.so in /system/lib, and also in /system/lib/armeabi-v7a/ but no dice.
Any google results on the "permission revoke" error were from a permissions error with /data/local, but as far as I can tell, that is only applicable when installing apps via Eclipse.
In case it matters, I have the apk in /system/app/LatinIME.apk, and am using Es Explorer to launch it for install.
If anyone has any ideas, post 'em up, and I'll keep cracking away at this.
I'm thinking I may have to "register" that lib somewhere so the system knows where it is....

You can also just look up "jellybean keyboard" in the Play Store.
Yeah, that works, lol. Sometimes the best solution is the simplest... It'd still be fun to get the CM10 port working though... Reckon I'll still play around with it for s & g's.
Thanks guys!

Everyone of us have a problem of not able to access all market Games. And end up downloading it from some site.... :silly:
Although we know we can play that game on our Device.
So here is your solution. We will edit our build.prop to look as Galaxy Note.
You will now able to buy, download, run and Play(duuuuhhhh) any game from Play Store....:silly::silly::silly:
1. Navigate to /system/ and open the build.prop file from a file manager of your choice that has root access (I prefer Prop Editor)
2. Change the following values to the ones here:
ro.product.model=GT-N700
ro.product.brand=samsung
ro.product.name=GT-N700
ro.product.device=galaxynote
ro.product.board=MSM8960
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung
ro.build.product=galaxynote
The values are case sensitive by the way.
Now reboot your phone. Open Play Store and search for NOVA 3... If you want you can buy n download it too(not suggested)...
Note:- Never buy any THD or Really heavy HD games, as you may end up with Game not able to start or FC. Mind it you are warned. It's your money.
I tried this on all ROMs........
>>>Also There should no longer be a "This game is not compatible with your device" error with any Game.. :good:
Enjoy
Did all listed here, but still I can't download Google Chrome, its saying my device is not compatible.
And its still showing my previous model "HTC desire".

you had restarted phone or not.? use build.prop editor.
And it can't show HTC Desire if you have done this correctly and restarted your phone.
And you should be on ICS if you wanna download Chrome as it is not supported on GB....
Not working

As many users here are finding Samsung have limited the Gear apps shown to certain devices. As such I thought it would be good to catalog the apps each phone/model can see. This way we can use build.prop modifications to get all the apps we want.
To get apps to show three lines must be edited in the build.prop:
Code:
ro.product.model
ro.product.name
ro.product.device
The following two posts show the two phone models that I have currently tested.
Hope this helps someone.
Edit:
Seems that the S5 model number seems to produce the best selection so far. See below for details.
Phone/Model: Samsung Galaxy Note 2 - US Sprint
Build.prop edits:
Code:
ro.product.model=SPH-L900
ro.product.name=toltespr
ro.product.device=toltespr
Apps: See attached
Phone/Model: Samsung Galaxy Note 3 - UK Vodafone
Build.prop edits:
Code:
ro.product.model=SM-N9005
ro.product.name=hltexx
ro.product.device=hlte
Apps: See attached
Phone/Model: Samsung Galaxy S5 -
Build.prop edits:
Code:
ro.product.model=SAMSUNG-SM-G900A
May not be needed but I had them set as they are my defaults.
Code:
ro.product.name=hltexx
ro.product.device=hlte
Apps: See attached
Categories same as for Note 2
Edit:
Some people are reporting issues with Samsung apps upgrading their stock apps to those available on the s5, upgrading s health will stop it from working and you will lose any data when downgrading to your stock version. You have been warned.
Also works with ro.device.model=SAMSUNG-SM-G900T

Don't have any problems with : ro.product.model=SAMSUNG-SM-G900A
I've got a S5ized rom for the S4 with everything coming from S5 (apps and so on ...).
Working perfect ! I don't understand why they'd do that, if they want us to stay with the Gear, they should allow us to use most apps available here lol
This is quite a trick!!
I have a Note 2 with stock rom (with root, because with DN3 I couldn't install some apps in my gear 1, so I reverted back to stock).
I use SAMSUNG-SM-G900A in my build.props and almost every day I have new apps coming! absolutely amazing!!:good:
thanks man!
Hey!
Some users which have nearly full access in the gear manager app store to the apps are able to upload the app files of the "free" apps for the peoples they don't have root?
This where really great!
On my Sony Z Ultra I see the Tizen apps and a few will install however the majority of apps will give an
"Installation filed: Try Later. (0) error.
Anyone else have this issue and /or a solution to fix?

You may to get a "certificate-registration.xml" from samsung and then copy the file to your gear in the following directory: "Home/Developer"
Then you're able to install apk's which are not from the gear manager store.
I wrote a guide in german language, so i think it not help you.
Can't write it in english because my english is not so good and not enough to do this
But you can try to look on it:

You can get around this by installing the s5 health service as well to go with it then s5 s health will work for most
Is a must to clear data and cache for to work
