Market country restriction workaround?

Does anyone have a workaround for the Android Market country restriction?
I wanted to download the official last.fm client, but apparently it's availability is restricted to a handful of countries, and the .apk is so far not available anywhere else.
Could I somehow adjust a setting in my rooted G1 (ADP1.41) to make it appear as I'm accessing the Market from within USA? Can I make use of any of the free web proxies available, by editing a config file on my phone?
Thanks,
Christopher

When it shows in the top of feature section, you will be able to download it..

I've been waiting for it to appear in the Featured Apps bar for three days without luck. :-(
So a more permanent fix/workaround would be preferred...
Thanks,
Christopher

Hi,
Unfortunately, I think the Market restrictions are tied to the SIM card in the phone - not anything in the phone itself.
I bought my G1 in the US, unlocked, for use with a UK sim card. When this SIM card is in the phone, I couldn't get to iSkoot amongst other things, but if I put the US SIM that came with the phone (note this was not tied to a dataplan or activated even for voice!) I could then see and download iSkoot in the marketplace over WiFi.
Regards,
Dave

So I tried the obvious - removed the SIM and started the phone with just wifi connected. No problem accessing the Market, but still no last.fm personal radio application... Could be the phone remembered that my SIM was Norwegian, or that the SIM left a footprint somewhere.
Man, this is irritating.

Check your PM's.

i got it off the featured apps on the top...
im actually looking into setting up a proxy on the phone when using wifi, for some reason its not working
if its not showing up on the top, what i had to do was power off and power on and then it came up.
i think the guy above me pmed you the apk, if not let me know and i'll PM it to you.

Fake IP or fake region for Tmobile G1
I have a G1, I live in Vietnam. I know there're iskoot, truphone, linda file browser, and some awesome software on market. But I can't find them. My friend lives in US and using Tmobile, he can find and download them. Why? I paid 400 bucks for a new phone and Tmobile don't share me software from market. Please research this and develop something to help poeple not using Tmobile and from another country.

Actually the decision to restrict to country is purely by the developer of the software in question. T-Mobile isn't involved.
Here is an ongoing thread in the apps subforum discussing the matter:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=476160

yeah not very fair to you!

hey people, can anyone tell me why I can see ALL the apps and install ALL of them?
And tell me which is the app that restricted to region so I can try to see?
Im using my G1 in Vietnam with Viet Telco simcard.

as jashsu said, this is all on the dev.
however the "restraints" are there for a reason,
remember android is a "baby" the forecast for the market is (imo) when its up and running each country's devs are going to have paid apps for their region...
im guessing its to differ from the iphone store thing, sux but we still really dont know how the market is going to evolve...
a quick work around.
disable data
turn on wifi, and set a USA (or country of the app you want to get) proxy on your router (since im unable to see or find were to do this on the phone itself)
and you should be good to go...once the phone gets a USA IP everything shows up.

If I recall correctly, the official Last.fm client is such an app. Search for "last". This is what the icon looks like:

Just for reference, some possible reasons an app might be region restricted:
-Licensing: Apps may serve or contain content which the developer licenses from a third party. The terms of the license may limit the distribution of the content to certain regions. A common example is music streaming in apps like Last.fm and imeem.
-Export restrictions: The exporting of certain technologies, in particular cryptography, is subject to government regulation.
-Support: In order to support an app, the developer will have to account for factors like user support and managing bandwidth. Reducing the number of regions to distribute simplifies the task of properly supporting an app.
-Localization: An app that only gives the weather forecast of cities in China obviously has little purpose in the North America region. The developer may not want to expose it for users outside of its intended geography.

No Video Calling App!! (not voice over IP)

No Video Calling App!!
i was just about to make a video call in the SNS only to realized we don't have a build in app for that.
on the SGS the stock dialing app have the video call feature.
is there any 3rd party app to do the same?
or perhaps some one can port over the SGS calling app over for SNS ?

Qik, or tango or something like that? Aren't they on the market?

no, i want a non Voice Over IP app
all those mentioned above are voice over ip (Fring, Tango, Yahoo Messenger, Qik, Skype) it requires an account, etc, etc, to work.
i just want the phone to work like a phone, just choose video call instead of normal call
it works like that on the SGS, we are missing the feature on the SNS
you just call another person with a video call capable phone, using the real cell phone number

Doesn't exist for the Nexus S as far as I know.
It's a TouchWiz feature. Insert FAQ quote on porting TouchWiz stuff here!

All video calling apps require at some point a mapping of an IP Address with some unique identifier. Samsung elected to use the phone number (whatever), Skype uses unique usernames, etc. There are TONS of implementations of Video Over Internet Protocol. Don't think the fact that it uses a cell phone number means anything (because it doesn't).
Also, others pointed out it is a TouchWiz deal...since this is a Pure Google Phone, it is _NOT_ included since it is a Samsung modification / program / theme / whatever you feel like calling it.
My point is, its regardless going to be very similar to VOIP as in it uses your data, and two, the fact that it uses a phone number instead of a username is completely irrelevant to begin with.

The sgs has a native app built into the dialer!? Theepic 4g doesn't have it :/ and it also doesn't have a fm radio lol
Anyways, tango uses your number and anyone in your contacts list who have tango will show up and then you can video call em. They can even call you. It'll stay idle in the background and it'll be like youe getting a regular call

but the problem is, the other party will need to have tango installed as well, and using a tango supported phone
the normal Video to Video call, does not require any other software, and it works from any phone to any phone, say from Nokia to Samsung, or Samsung to LG
as long as both phones are video capable, that is the beauty of it.
the video call protocol standard is different than the one applied on the voice over IP apps we know about.
yes, both of them uses data, but one is direct and supported by the phone companies
the other one only supported if you have the app installed, this is the most inconvenient part, as not everyone uses the same app.

Oh I see what you mean.
They have that in europe and japan. I don't think our airwaves can handle that yet lol

seems like you are all missing the point.
the idea is to be able to dial the phone number from the dial pad just like the SGS, you can select video call, or normal call
then you are connected right away, without any 3rd party software.
this is the same on other video calls capable phones.
requiring a 3rd party software defeats the purpose.
and the only reference to the iphone is about the telco pushing it as the main device for video chat, nothing to do with comparing apps used to do the actual video call

what we need is a universal video calling standard, apple initially said that it would make facetime for different platforms but that has yet to happen

Apple stuff aside....
I'll be interested in seeing more Skype development to support Video Chat
Skype integrates neatly with the phone, and it's pretty universal, almost most people i know with a smartphone will have skype installed
at one point skype was trying to position itself as the standard, it'll be nice if they actually make it, but so far seems like they are only 1/4 of the way there.
it's being pushed back by Cell phone companies

I understand where AllGamer is coming from.
Some phones have them by default ... don't need to be a smartphone and don't need for any app or separate software. All you have to have is a phone with a front facing camera.
Back when I did not even have a data line (about 3 years back), I could just call my wife or friend or whoever had this FFC phone, while talking to them over my regular line, I would go into the phone option and switch on the FFC. The person on the other side did the same and we could actually video chat just like we do these days with special apps and phones that supposedly smart
Here, I'm not talking about software or service providers such as skype or tango and am not even talking of requiring data line. True, I would be charged for data, but this was only for the video data as at that time, I could never browse the net or send email given that my connection did not have data enabled.

we'll need a universal app that works on all the phone
at the moment only some phones can do this out of the box, like the Galaxy S, Iphone, LG, Sony, etc
Nexus S can use 3rd party apps, unfortunately those are not standard for every phone
Google did not package a cross platform compatible Video Chat due codec and encoding licenses issues
search google vs microsoft re: codecs

Hi, all.
Very interesting discussion. Just bought android phone with front facing camera but found out (after googling the net for 2 days!) that android phone does not support native video call. . I previously use SE K770i and with it I can video call my sister who is using Nokia 6124 - without any need to install any apps or subscribe to any additional provider, just our telco - and we have different telco!
Anyway, my question is, does native video call technology (video call as explain in videophone in wikipedia) is a propriety technology? Why android does not implement it?
-----
Sorry cannot post link to wikipedia as this is only my first entry. Just go to wikipedia and search for 'videophone'

flippin' 'eck, how'd I miss that one !?
I've had my SNS since Feb and never noticed the video call function wasn't there !
Way back when I had a Motorola V3 I was able to select video call from the dial menu, issue then was whether your carrier supported it (Three network started to lead the way but now all of 'em are video capable) and as Allgamer rightly points out, a massive oversight by Samsung/Google/Android !
Whilst I don't majorly miss the feature, it'd be nice to have it when I need it.
What else am I gonna use my 500mb data allowance on ?

That's how it works in Japan. Their regular phones that have front facing cameras support video chat natively across carriers. If the person you are calling has the support for it on their phone then you can do some video chatting..
I think the problem with the U.S. is that the telco's don't want to work together on stuff like this.

[Q] ICS leak - unable to dial out with google voice

I've tried this on the .206 and .208 leaks, both of which won't use google voice to dial out. I've tripled checked, and google voice is set to "Use Google Voice to make all calls". I've tried uninstalling and re-installing (on both builds). Has anyone else experienced this? If so, has anyone found a fix?
Also - I've tried "Ask every time I make a call", this also fails to work (though I only tried this in .208).

Works for me (I'm on .206). I have it set to "Only use Google Voice for international calls" though, not sure if that makes a difference.

Unfortunately that did not work for me. I've now tried "use Google Voice to make all calls", "Only use Google voice for international calls" and "Ask every time I make a call" - none of these result in using Google Voice for a call (local, domestic, - I haven't tried ILD, as I don't want to incur a charge).
The only thing that appears to work is "Don't use google voice for any calls", though I am beginning to suspect this is due to a bug, not design.

OK, did a little more testing - and stumbled across something looks like only 7 digit dialing is affected. 10 digit dialing does indeed use google voice. Frankly, I'm not sure if this was the case in stock GB or not - with out a way to roll back, I can't test.

I thought gv only did international calls, at least within the USA.

Thank you! Google Voice worked great on my Galaxy S2 with GB and ICS, but I'm not able to place out going calls with my Galaxy S3. I tried your advice of using 10 digit dialing and it appears to be working!

I have used it on .206 a few times and it works, it just doesn't show the "calling with google voice" dialog. I checked my minutes usage and no international minutes show up, just night/weekend or anytime minutes. If it wasn't working, there would be international minutes on my bill/vzw usage app.

To avoid this you can just call up VZW Support and remove international dialing from your account. That way if it somehow doesn't use GV to dial internationally in the future, you'll just get the "you must enable international dialing blah blah" message, instead of crazy charges on your bill

Enable VoWifi+VoLTE on Oneplus 7T PRO

Hi guys, this is not my original work, but it was hard to find for our device, so i experimented with the guides available for the oneplus 7 pro and the following woks perfectly.
The reason i tried to find this is that most guides rnabled the VoLTE and VoWifi switches but only Volte worked this way (at least on my network).
Before following the guide, do a quick search in that thread and see what carrier profiles are recomended for your country/Provider.
For example for Cosmote greece, i used H3G Denmark commercial, not the Germany Vodafone recomended by the guide.
Just follow the instructions exactly and both VoLTE and VoWifi should work perfectly.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=81480319&postcount=513
I used this later version of the software (from the same source): https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=11410963190603864075
In case the *#801# does not work, you must download the Oneplus engineering apk and install it (google it) an then it will open up.
Lastly im not always active on the forums so i might not respond fast but if someone needs any help i ll try to help them.
Thanks to @virtyx @jamal2367 @sanke1 @everyone else i might forget for all their work and help on this matter.
P.S: If you want me to take down the drivers just ak me and i will.

awesome

ROW commercial > working caller id unknowing
H3G Denmark commercial work perfect

Yes, works with all Oneplus devices.

I want to recommend another way, as the oneplus logkit method is only possible on OxygenOS
open up an adb shell
$ su
# setprop sys.usb.config diag,serial_cdev,serial_tty,rmnet_ipa,mass_storage,adb
and then proceed with the PDC tool
(you'll need root)

Do I have to go back to oos 10 to enable this and then reinstall Lineageos? (perhaps it is lost after update??)
Or is there a chance to get this done under lineageos?
Thank u for any help.

After no respone... I reverted to stock rom Android 10. Did not work for me. I upgraded to OOS11, No Chance to get this done. Correct PSD and Drivers installed. I tried this several times. Downgraded and upgraded and so on.....

Well, I switched to Lineageos 18.1 Microg hardened from MSe1969.
My situation with the phone is weird. I updated to OOS 11 first and did the whole stuff with oemlogkit and with QPSD and PDC. I managed to change my Phone to AIS_Thailand_Commercial. With that, volte is working. It shows up under Lineageos 18.1 microg hardened with a HD signal during phonecalls. making Vowifi calls is only possible, if u enable under *#*#4636#*#* mobile strenght if phone is in flight mode. Then i am reachable too. But i have the situ, if 4G calls enabled and / or vowifi enabled, all incoming calls a stated with unknown caller ID. I have to untick 4G calls to see who is calling. But I am willing to work on this this week. The situation is weird in my eyes, because the phone can't get other brands from eurpoe enabled like H3G Denmark or Germany or or or.....
My phone is native european and i get only asian brands??? Well I guess perhaps i go once again back with msmflashtool and start all over again. I tested Chungwa:Tel;_Taiwan, Visble, FareastOne_Taiwan,MINL_BSNL,Taiwan_mobile_Commercial, Some work with only volte some can be changed but nothig works, If i use OOS all works normal. (Vowifi and Volte) But i 'll give it another try.
If There is someone out there (developer) who is able to enable *#*#4636#*#* mobile strength out of the box when thelephone is booting up, would help perhaps.

Okay, After playing around with back to OOS 10 and OOS11 afterwards, i managed to find out, that MTNL-BSNL works for me, even under Lineageos 18.1 hardened. But It took a lot of time and work with magisk and the setprop stuff with adb shell. I very often phoned myself with another phone to find out, wether i got rid of the "UNKNOWN CALLER ID"
stuff. Now, it works, but i have to activate vowifi under *#*#4636#*#* by hand. But i am contendened, it works.
Nevertheless there are no icons showing up for functionating volte or vowifi. I think tis is an aspect of developers implementing this into their rom.
Greetz, and all the best, Ray

Call recorder app

Hi guys, hope everyone doing fine. I am looking for a Call recording app for my S20 FE 5G. I did try out some popular ones like ACR but unfortunately the voice on the other end is barely audible Anyone able to recommend a good app which records voice of both parties equally well?

Thank you! I just installed it. If you are already using it, can you please tell me which recording settings work best for capturing the other party voice (its very feeble, my own voice all good)?
so basically the three settings below:
a. Phone recording audio source- which option to keep?
b. Phone calls clarity improvement- do I keep it MAX?
c. Force in-communication mode- do I enable or disable?

b. mine is right in the middle
c. mine is enabled

@uicnren thanks for your response mate. The voice of the other party is still weak as opposed to mine

Starting with android 9, Google bans call recording in many countries.
So, If you are somewhere where GDPR rules then you have nothing to do, unless you root your phone...

Dear All,
I can confirm that the Thailand (THL) Firmware has call recording built in and working just fine.

Google cannot 'ban' anything, they are not a legal entity and/or goverment. They can and may remove or hide the feature.
This is a samsung rom, and that function has been in in all version of thier roms since v7.0. My S7 running 8.1 has it and my S20fe running 10 has it.
Lastly there are a bunch of call recording apps on google play and the net in general.

1. Sorry, I don't speak english very well! The point is, Google hide this feature and Samsung did the same thingin some countries.
2. The code is there in all ROMs but if you don't have the proper CSC you cannot activate it unless you root your phone and modify CSC features.
3. All that bunch of call recording apps on google play do nothig unless the ROM's kernel let them!
