I can't because I don't have that capability yet since I don't have 10 posts.

I will look into it and see what i can do.
But you should try reflashing the ROM, because I have never had any problems with the Play Store on my ROM.

I fixed it. since I use a custom dpi of 190, I hand to temp change dpi back to 240 and reboot, then I uninstalled the play store updates and then I ran the market. I then rebooted so the play store would install and while still using 240 dpi I ran play store and it restored the app compatibility. I then changed back to 190 dpi and everything is ok and apps such as go launcher are downloadable again.

[Q] Apps not compatible for note

Hi, I have been trying to download some apps for my galaxy note but in the market place the app does not even show up. I know these apps are compatiable because i have seen them on other notes, and online. Such as omni sketch. When I search the play store it does not show up anywhere, and when i googled omnisketch android store and clicked the link it brought me to the play store page but i could not download it. The same goes for samsung apps application, and zen brush.
My atnt note is rooted and has the saurom rom on it , but i did not overclock or anything. Also i read up on the q and a for the saurom rom and did not find my answer. But i did not apply the atnt fix because I am not using atnt i am using t-mobile hspa+
Any help guys? Also my language says english us but when i click it it changes to english canada so i restored it from a nandroid backup i did when i first flashed the rom and it now says english us and i have not clicked it again so far but i think it is actually english canda? Anyway i can fix this too
Thanks!
I'm having this same problem on my AT&T note flashed with Saurom 7.1...
A bunch of apps that are even ADVERTISED as optimized for galaxy note say
"This app is incompatible with your AT&T Samsung SAMSUNG-SGH-I717." on google play...but if I find the apk for it on my own and install it it works...
why is this happening? can't install:
Jotter
OmniSketch
Zen Brush
Colors! for Galaxy Note
OnLive (even lists galaxy note in description though)
Air Penguin
...the list goes on and on. Why is google play telling me my device is not compatible with these apps even though it is?
Yeah exact problem i was having. Except i didnt manually try installing the apks since some of them were paid apps. Idk why it doesnt make any sense, and i havent found a solution either.

I JUST fixed it! Woooo! I'm not sure exactly what did it but these are the steps I took:
Went to application settings and cleared the data for google play store.
Rebooted phone. (which also reset my DPI from 240 to default)
Started play store...it said it was upgrading from android market bla bla.
Still didn't work.
Uninstalled touchscreen tune.
Messed around with Chainfire pro (made sure no plug in was in use)
all of a sudden my apps are back...it alerted me of the Dolphin HD update (which was incompatible before) and i'm downloading Jotter and Air Penguin as I type this!
I had the same problem. I solved it by using the PAID version of LCD Density Modder. The free version was not enough.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.birdapi.android.dpipro&hl=en
As soon as I updated to the paid version, I got notified of about 30 apps that needed to be updated. Previously those apps were not compatible and were installed through Titanium Backup.
So the dpi/lcd density is the problem?? Thats weird cus i havent changed my dpi or anything its still at stock.
Hmm I'm not sure what to do. I have the same issue, but I haven't messed with the dpi or anything, and I don't have either of the two apps you listed there. I'm on the stock ICS rom, is there anothet way to fix my issue?

LCD density modder (free version) is what I was using to change DPI too. I guess restarting and having the DPI reset is what fixed it or in other words, changing DPI is what caused the problem. It's weird though cause it didn't work till like 10 minutes after the phone was rebooted even though it was at default DPI immediately after the reboot.
For you guys who are still having problems and haven't messed with DPI....do you have chainfire? Try uninstalling or setting everything to default. Or try clearing the Google Play Store application data
I have super user chain fire and i havent messed with anything there either. Ive tried clearing the play store app data and nothing..
Still no luck. This is really annoying me. Why is it not working. Do you guys think going back to stock would help?

♚ Google Play issues ♚

I'm running AOKP JB build 5, Dagr8's Kernel, and Truth77's Gapps, on my Galaxy Note, and have been having ongoing issues with the Google Play app store.
I have about 12 visible apps in the "Top Paid" category, and I know there are more then just 12 of them...
I have tried clearing data, on Google play and Google play services and rebooting, but still no change..
Can someone bestow some knowledge to me, on how to fix this once and for all?

My market is multi dpi but if you use tablet mode the dpi gets too small for my markets im trying to make it work for tablet mode but no succses yet. I'll update the gapps as soon as i get it to work for tablet too! If you use pa or c&c leave market doing stock or 360px like said above and you'll be ok
Well the Play store is now fixed, I had to change dpi to 320, other dpi's just cause the Play Store to malfunction again.. meh at least its working for now.

Not Working for Me
I'm having the same issue with some apps in the Play store being incompatible (eg Flipboard and Starbucks). I am running C&C 4.1.2 with system dpi set at 280. I have tried setting the play store back to 320dpi/360px (go into setting/apps, find the play store and clear cache and reboot) and I have set the system back to 320 dpi.
I'm not sure if I should reflash truth77's gapps or try JunstunBeans. Any suggestions?

I fixed mine by changing dpi to 240, as it is a stock dpi, and removed data in both Google play, and its services, a quick reboot, and vöila! Back to normal!
Though, like you, I prefer a dpi of 280, I'd rather have my Play store functioning over my preferred dpi.

[Q] Multiple apps previously downloaded are not compatible with phone in Play Store

Hi all. I need some help in figuring out what the problem is.
Currently I am running Paranoid Kangdroid by JamieD. I have multiple apps that are downloaded, but when I go to their Play Store Page, I get a meesage that says my device isn't compatible with the app.
Here are some of the apps that are applicable to this problem:
Square Register
Tasker
Google Hangouts (replaces Talk)
9Gag Official App
Temple Run 2
Amazon Mobile
There are a lot more apps, but these are just a few.
This problem also occurred with PTMR's Debloated JB 4.1 and JamieD's Revolt. I was wondering what could the problem be? Resetting the DPI did not fix anything and I wasn't sure making a post in the development thread would be the best place to ask my question. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I'd try this (I'm tired so I'll forget actual details):
Make sure your play store is 320 size and 360 layout. Once that's done, restart phone, then delete cache and data for play store and play services, restart again.

Thanks for your reply, but it didn't work. Maybe we're missing a crucial step?
The weird thing about this is that the play store didn't act weird until recently (maybe within the past week). Before, at 220 dpi and 600 layout, I didn't have this problem with the apps mentioned above.
You were on the right track. I just had to reset the dpi for the play store in the hybrid settings. Thanks for the help.

Search for Multi DPI Play Store 4.1.6 and you will find what you need. That way it won't matter your DPI, of the apps are compatible they will be listed.

Installing Pokemon GO on Memu failed

Hi there,
I am trying to install Pokemon GO on Memu 2.7.2 from the website apk mirror (can't link it cuz I don't have enough posts)
Every app is easily installed however Pokemon GO fails to install without giving me any reason why.
Has anyone encountered the same problem and has a possible fix?
Thanks!
Same problem here. Haven't found a fix for it yet. The apk worked fine on mobile so that's not the problem.
We'll probably have to wait till it's downloadable through the playstore.
Yes they are blocking devices that can't get the app from the PlayStore and banning people that are sideloading it
Pokemon Go required Android 4.4 And MEmu is 4.2

There's actually a Lollipop version now.
I was able to install it from the Play Store, but it still force closes after I launch it.
Edit: I actually got it working. I just had to set up Google Play Games. It's working great now!

I installed the lollipop version and installed Play Games, and it still force closes the app upon startup. Was there anything else you had to do to get it to work?

Did you open Play Games and make sure you're signed in? That's all I did. Which version of Pokemon Go are you using? I have 0.29.2 which was released today.

Yeah, I installed Play Games, signed into my account, and clicked around on a few things to be sure I was signed in correctly. Then I just I installed the game from the Play Store, which I would assume is the most up to date version.
Edit: Just verified - it's 0.29.2
Double edit: I opened Play Games, navigated to "My Games" or whatever, and opened the game from inside Play games, and it worked. Wont work if I try to open it from the home screen though.
having same problem but going though play games didnt fix it for me. Running the latest memu beta, game installs from play store, run game from play games and still crashing. Thoughts?
I got it installed but it's also crashing for me

Android unninstalling App without my permission

Hello,
I have a pixel XL updated to the android beta, and I wanted to donwload the Google news app. This app is not available in my country so I went to a repository and downloaded an APK. I installed it, and everything works as usual, the app is running smoothly, but when I close it and leave the phone idle for a few minutes the APP dissapears from the launcher. If I try to install it again the phone tells me that is already installed and I can update it, if I do that the app appears again on the launcher and I can use it again.
Can anyone help me with this? should I block permissions for Google Play services (I think that is what is messing with my apps)? or it is possible to install something to prevent this? maybe a modded apk?

Have you tried changing the launcher? Since you are using a beta, it might be a bug within the launcher.

Obviously the app is not available in your country through the play store. The play store has that function where it verifies apps which I think is called Play Protect. Of you opted in, it could be that.

That is because the location of you play store is still set to your country, you have to change it in options. I can't do that because I have credit in the play store and doing so will take it away
