You can use the Barnacle Wifi Tether app (Google it) and install it to your phone. You must be rooted in order to do this. Works great for me

I was trying to get it but AT&T blocks it from the Market and anytime I look it up and try to download it I, it links me right back to the Market where it can't be found.....
If you want to use Barnacle do a google search for an app called either MarketEnabler or MarketAccess. Both of these will trick the phone into thinking it's on a different network when opening the Market.
AT&T notoriously blocks many market apps. I changed my settings to T-Mobile's (after backing up mine, of course) using MarketAccess and went into the Market and was able to download Barnacle. Then just go back to MarketAccess (or MarketEnabler) and revert back to the AT&T settings...

i have hero in iran but, Because of sanctions from google I can't use the market in iran.
is way for solve this problem?
For example, using the proxy?
i connect to internet with wifi from hero.
when i open market and enter my gmail, after a few second the market closed.
I would suggest using a proxy.
or using marketenabler.
i'm sure Uncle Napoleon would blame the British for this....!

Don't work on my 2.6 MoDaCo Hero.
But when I uninstalled it I finally managed to install the latest v3.0.2 beta. And now everything is ok Guess some stuff must have been left from an old market enabler.
i installed market enabler 3.0.2 beta but when i open the market (after 'select o2 or ...' on market enabler) after a few second closed again. i thing don't work on 2.7 MoDaCo
Work with both 2.7.0 and 2.7.1 on my Hero
can i use vpn on hero? like Apple Iphone?
I've had this problem since day one, and now it's getting irritating.
I just cannot seem to find some apps in the market. Like Stupid zombies. I found the game via AppAware market, followed the link there, but market says it cannot be found.
I'm running Froyo 2.2. I doubt so many apps are optimized for Gingerbread, because thats the only reason I can think of.

Appware probably didn't update and the app probably got taken off the market. I did a search and got no results.

It has something to do with tmobile and with our particular phone certain apps just wont work and the market wont let us see is for exaple i wanted a app called can knockdown that my friend has on his Nexus one and he can still see it in the market but i couldnt so i downloaded it off a alternative app market and it still wont install i have been told that if you take out your sim card it will work but it didnt work for me
This is due to Carrier or Country restrictions. This is your answer:
http://www.mediafire.com/?6gxudncfxz19aai
An app called Market Access. This app emulates to the android os (i.e. the market) that you are on another network, therefore you can download other things that ou could not view earlier.
This app requires rooting.
To use it, clear you cache (using something like CacheMate) and run the market access. Backup your current carrier code and choose another carreir.
After the successful emulation. Run the market and enjoy the stuff.
After you finish. re-emulate to your original carrier code using the market access Restore option. And its better to clean tha cache afterwards.
Hope this helps.
Market Enabler.. Similar app as mentioned above.
Okay so I tried Market Enabler. It does change my carrier since I can see the currency change, but I still can't see the app. I'll try a few more carriers.

On my rooted Nook Color 1.2 market does not allow me to download any apps other than the limited B&N stock market. I have been able to sideload some apps however I can't find the essential app outside of market so I can install manually. I searched days on forums to no avail. The apps that would complete my search are:
XDA.apk
Hulu.apk
When will a root be available that has market working unlimited?
Not sure how you rooted, but if you did manual nooter, you should have a full market. If you are trying to use their shop, it's limited. If you use the market, try the market steps in the first post from the thread I linked.
Thanks that worked however now I keep losing wifi connections. Any clues?

Get SOFTLOCKER ... works very well.
EDIT: NEVERMIND... I'm an idiot. lol It's amazing what happens when you don't accidently skip part of the directions. :/
I live in Cyprus, and cannot see all the apps in the market due to regional restrictions. I can't even see the official Gmail app.
I've tried "Paid apps enabler", "Market enabler" and "Market Access". PAE and ME return an error when I try to change to a US carrier, while MA reports that it has changed the carrier succesfully (but the market restrictions are still there). I'm guessing that this happens because my GT10.1 is the wifi only model thus there are no phone carrier settings to spoof (or google simply ignores the carrier's codes).
My device is rooted. Note that I've been succesfully using "paid apps enabler" on my nexus one for some months now. I have also tried to replace build.prop from a US xoom, and restarting, without any success.
How is google registering my location without 3g? Is it just by IP? Any ideas on how to overcome this?
I have de same problem. I have tried all that apps to no luck.
Go to apps and force close and delete data of Market and Market Update, restart And use a VPN connection. I use strongvpn

I'd prefer a simpler solution like the market access one. Any experts around to answer if that is technically possible since the wifi only model has no carrier to spoof??

It won't work....tried that with a rooted XOom.
What also works is getting the build.prop file of a Tab with 3G from a supported market. Than root and push it to the system folder.
I live in saudi and we have the same problem we can not get paid apps. I have a vpn account with private internet access with a US connection so I setup the vpn account in the tab and I got all the paid apps

this makes paid apps accessible but they still can not be installed. it fails when redirect to "My Apps" page. seems that something other than market and market-updater blocks the action.
try this:
remove the Google account, add it again after connect to VPN, then the location will be all reset, all app will be available.
this works for my but too inconvenient. I hope I will find some easier way soon.

I tried this and it doesnt work for me. I checked my IP and it's a usa ip.
Need build.prop
I have the same problem and all research seems to point to getting a build.prop file from a unit that has 3G. The Xoom users that had wifi only units had the same problem and this is how they got around it.
Now the question is where can we get a 3G US version of build.prop?
I can tell from experience that both the build.prop or VPN work.
The build.prop is way too complicated and requires root.
For VPN to work go to apps and clear all user data in location apps/market apps. Also clear all location based detection in settings. Before you restart the Tab, go into airplane mode and then restart.
When you're back enter password for your VPN, ready to login, but before you do enable wifi access and almost immediatly after that connect to your VPN, this way alll services go through the VPN. Works fine for me.
Sorry, I have tried every combination of VPN and still cannot get it to work.
I have a rooted tab, so I think the build.prop would be an easy solution if I can just find a valid US based 3G file to copy.

anybody have the build.prop and the method to install it ?
The 3G version is out but I still have not read anything about how to update the build.prop file to avoid the market issue. However, I have been able to successfully download and get to most apps on the market by following some hints from other helpful people on these forums....namely by closing all market related apps, clearing their cache, opening up a US based VPN and going back into the market.

I tried this (from China) from my Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 Plus, while using Market Enabler, faking my location, and changing my location (in time and location). I can see the paid apps, but once I try to download the order cancels. Akarim47, did you actually download any paid apps? I'm trying to get some paid apps, as well as a few free that aren't available overseas (why?) such as File Manager HD.

I can confirm this works from China.
Using a Galaxy Tab 7 plus.
TL;DR : Use Market Access and if Google won't accept your credit card due to the address not being from a "supported billing country", edit the card details in Google Wallet and use a US address. Thanks to Anomaly for sharing his method.
This is for people who live in countries where paid apps are not available on the Android Market. I used to use Market Enabler to access paid apps and purchase them. After stock ICS I can still see paid apps but I am not able to purchase them, always get hit with "The item you were attempting to purchase could not be found". Also, Market Enabler's auto fake on boot does not work. I have tried clearing data and uninstalling the Market app's updates. No go.
Has anyone found a way to continue purchasing paid apps with ICS?
market enabler I guess doesn't work with ICS. I use VPN.
Go to settings, wireless and network.
u should see VPN settings over there.
Add new vpn
select PPTP VPN
VPN name with any thing u want. Vpn server:-freemobilevpn.net and save it
The username and password is gonna be 'free' and 'free'
Go to the browser and type google u should see a page with a I agree link click that and ur set. u can now buy paid apps.
Plz not that the VPN is active for only for 4 hours after which u will have to reset it. And plus this is a free VPN service which I use every day to listen to pandora.
Hit the Thanks Button if I have helped.
Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately, this still won't let me purchase apps, nor does it allow me to see properly find paid apps in the Market. Now, I get hit with "Purchases are not available in your country".

Hey, just tried this more than a few times. Does not work. I removed SIM card and failed to purchase an app in the following scenarios:
1) Emulate T Mobile SIM for paid app visibility using Market Enabler. Fail
2) Did not use Market Enabler. Fail
3) Clear Market Data. Fail
4) Uninstall Market updates. Fail

Thank you for the link. I could not understand the last bit though. Can I ask, how exactly do you purchase an app on the web market if you're in a country that does not allow purchases?
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
Once those steps are completed and you go on to web market your device is recognized as the faked provider. For example, if you fake it with T-Mobile the market web market recognizes the device as a T-Mobile device which means your device is liable for purchase

Yeah, I see my device as a T Mobile. But, when I try to purchase an app I'm asked to enter credit card details from a supported country. And I still can't purchase anything on the web or from the app. Guess something is truly messed up between my account and Google! Thanks for the tip though.

Update
I used the web market to try and purchase an app, I was prompted to enter new credit card details from a "supported billing country". So I used a virtual US credit card and was able to make the purchase.
My problem now is not spoofing the market. Using Market Access or Market Enabler, I am able to gain access to a US market that shows paid apps and the like. The issue is with purchasing them, Google no longer accepts my cards that are from the UAE, it will only accept cards whose billing address is from a supported country. My other cards appear greyed out both on the web market and on my phone. Can anyone confirm this?
The card that is available is a virtual one I attained through www.usunlocked.com Unfortunately, using this card is not very viable due to the high per-transaction fee of 50 cents. That seems to be an additional 50 cents on every app I purchase! Google's really ****ed me for trying to do things the right way.
