Market enabler:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ch.racic.android.marketenabler&feature=search_result
Just set it to t-mobile USA or Verizon
PD: you'll only need to be rooted...

No luck ..I can see all the American apps but when I click download it says "this app is not available in your country" any other idea?

Never mind now I found out a way but I have to use a Vpn server and it will only last as long as the trial from the provider

hello everyone.. my market does not show paid apps page in the market nor the paidd apps... maybe its cuz of my country..
is there someway i could get the paid apps? do i hav to debrand my phone to show me the paid apps or wt?

Root your phone and install market access / market enabler is the most given advice here, as this question comes by every now and than. I did not try this as my default market is working fine.

I keep getting this item is not available in my country!!! Is it because I use an unlocked Galaxy S2 i9100 down here in the states??
i think it's just the US in general - i can't get it on my Atrix (CM9) or my Galaxy Tab (stock GB)
GOT IT! Just made an account to spread the word! please give props if this helped

do you need root access for market locker to work? will it work okay with google play store instead of the original market?
It's not showing up on my device and when I look on the website, it says my device in incompatible. I'm running Gingerbread and have a G2x. It says i need 2.2 or up. What am I missing? I live in TX lol
Why would it be locked to just the canadian market, don't understand my device is not rooted so can't user market unlock, is there any other way?

Remove device compatibility issue with play store

Alright well I was on gingersnap LG 2.0 rom and now I'm back on gingerdx. I'm having problems downloading certain apps like the pro version of this app even though I used the pro version on gingersnap...I actually had to use a blackmarket app to download minimalistic text and now I am having problems trying to download recast weather on gingerdx..If I had solutions I wouldn't be asking. Is there a patch I flash with cwm that will allow me to download apps and take away that annoying your device isn't compatiable with this version error message on Google play store...
