Here is my build.prop - i can see almost every app there is on Play Market.

Can somebody help me? It's the only problem i got with this device Games are installing just fine, i can't download content.
Is this problem device related or rather ICS? My friend got the exactly same problem on other device - GoClever A73, also with freshly released ICS - also only EA games.
Best regards,
Daniel

Ok, i've just tried flashing to stock 2.3.4, and still the same. Either device, or build.prop.

Any ideas?
