I can't say for sure on the note, but I had a similar problem with my NookColor after changing dpi. You may want to try one of the "standard" dpi's like 240. Apply and reboot. May have to clean the market (Google play store) cash too.

There are a few roms that have the multidpi fix especially if useful if you are running tablet mode.

I am having the same problem as well. Currently still looking for a fix to this problem as I am not able to have access to all my applications. I'm pretty sure, as of now, the only ROM that has the DPI-FIX implemented into it, is the hybrid_rc_IV. but i'm not running that rom...any help would be appreciated also!
yes this works for the note, install then goto fix marketplace and it will download the market and the framework and install, then reboot, u can even change the density also, this works for me. u need to move to ur sdcard and install using a file explorer and make sure under settings->Security and unknown sources is checked so u can install the apk.
download: LCD Density Modder Pro.apk
Yes
There is a way you can change it. Theres a couple of apps, but some of them do not work. And will cause you to re-flash your rom if your phone is rooted!

Hi,
Previously I've installed Paradise Island from the Android Market. But recently, I can't find the app in the market any more. So I tried to find it using PC. It says "This app is incompatible with your Celcom Samsung GT-S5830." Anyone know what's the problem?
I think you have flashed a different firmware....

I've changed to high maturity but still can't find it.
Custom dpi (lcd density) seems to cause the "incompatible" problem with the new market.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1196417
Going back to 240 dpi and clearing market data makes everything work as it should.
You can then go back to your custom dpi, but most users are reporting the problem comes back after a while.
if you want paradise island you can search ( paradise island pandaapp ) in google

Did it. Other apps that need update came up instead. The app Paradise Island is still not found in the market. =(
I was having this problem, I was trying to install an app and it was showing that my device was incompatible, so, I did a little search and found this https://market.android.com/details?id=net.andirc.erismarketfix&feature=search_result
The Eris Market Fix will fix this error, you need to be rooted to do the procedure, it worked fine for me, I was finally able to install the app.
I keep getting "This app is incompatible with your Evo" from the Android Market website and the market app (3.1.5) just doesn't give me a download button or show me updates for newer versions of some apps. It was mostly just an annoyance for a while but now the latest Facebook update came out and it won't install. I'm running CM7.1RC1 which is Android 2.3.4, although I never recall having this problem until I updated to the latest Android Market.
I'm also wondering if there's any good way to troubleshoot why the market thinks my device is incompatible with a particular app (like some sort of reason ... android version too high, screen resolution, etc).
Solution: It turns out this is because I had modified my DPI to set it to 210 instead of 240. Once I set it back to 240 the market showed me 17 new updates. It looks like they're checking to make sure the DPI checks out ... bummer.
I installed CM7.1 nightly 202 and I was able to change my DPI and still use the market without problem. It seems there is a fix as of nightly 198 or so.
Some apps are incompatible because of variation in geographical regions... I think the one you are trying is not available for your region/country....
Thanks, but I'm in the US and that's not it. It works fine on the stock ROM, same phone. I'm looking for how to troubleshoot. Is there any way to see what the app restrictions are?

I don't think we would be able to see the app restrictions..only a developer can see it in the console..
if you're using any kind of density changer, it can cause "not compatible" issues.

Hm, I had edited my density in build.prop. I just changed it back to the default and that fixed it! Hallelujah! Thanks for the help.
Now, does anyone know of any way to have my cake and eat it too (that is keep my higher density and still get app updates by tricking the market somehow)?

Not gonna happen unless you can find a way for the market to detect a denisty setting other then what is in your build prop.
As the title says, I need if its possible to a way to spoof you phones DPI.
Mainly I need it for the market because I'm sick and tired of being told that my DPI is not supported when in fact the app works fine....
Thanks in advance.

Change it in your Build.prop inside the system folder. this is with me assuming the DPI is the same as lcd density inside the build.prop. I do know if you change it on my hone to something not stock you get told no on some apps in the market.
Changing that could work but it makes my phone unusable because the UI is huge.

i have a similar issue. i have an sgs2 and use lcddensity to increase from 240 to 160 but apps on market say they won't work. i either reboot back to normal dpi, install, then reboot via lcddensity to the desired dpi - or download the apk manually and sideload it.
would be nice to get around this and just lie to the market app what the res is
Bump?

Maybe a advanced dev knows but would it be possible to decompile the market app, look for the bit that tells it where to look for build.prop and change it to look for lets say market build.prop, compile it, resign it then install with a lets say galaxy nexus build.prop?
I can't test this as I don't have a PC at home

Most apps are built for HDPI devices and up, the Wildfire is a low end MDPI device and most apps won't be compatible. It may seem to run fine if you alveolar the apk but Android has to force the application to work on your device. As for the Galaxy Nexus, the new 720p screen in Android is fairly new, and Market doesn't know much about the new resolution and will show apps as unsupported. The dev just has to make a quick update. That, or sideload.
I'm trying to install chomp and hancent sms but there missing from the site. On the website they all seem to say there not compatible with my phone. Is this error or correct? seems to be a lot missing wile I'm browsing on the phone!
Must be your phone. Clear the Play store cache .

I don't have a sgs3 yet, still waiting. But I know when I got my ICS tablet, there were a bunch of apps I had on my Gingerbread phone, that were not available on ICS. Many of those apps were subsequently updated to be compatible with ICS and then were available in the Play store on my ICS tablet. I can't speak to those specific apps you mention.

Try changing it to 320 with the build prop editor - seems there is a bug in build prop tweaks which doesn't let you return to stock density values.
Failing that, reflash with full wipe.
Should sort it.

Ok so, I am running Liquid Gingersense. I have the new combo radio installed. I am using 4ext.
So today I am playing on the play store (PC version). I saw an app my wife DL. I wanted the app too. The play store said that the app is not compatible with my unlocked TB but it is ok on my wife’s stock TB. Why? There is also a post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1336245
This guy is saying that a game has shut down on him because he was rooted. Don’t know if there a tie between or it is just a coincidence. But why is an app ok to use on a stock TB but not a rooted TB?
Here is the app I was using:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.webascender.callerid#?t=W10.
That app isn't giving me any issues running nusense.... The other I played for months without any issue.

Just to be clear. All I did was download the app and open it. I didn't run it for any period of time.

Yeah depends if the rom you're running changed the LCD density, or much more. Even the smallest tweak can throw off the market.

I never even thought of that. I did change the density a little. hmmmmm.
If you changed the density the market will make apps not compatible. Stock density is 240 and it can be changed I. the build prop.

Wait a little while. I think the Play Store caches information and takes a bit to forget or to force a re-check.
Check what the device profile and name are in the build prop.

Just download an apk from somewhere and bypass market.
Just search name of the app you want and put .apk after it in Google search.

Thanks for your guys help with this. I Just ended up flashing to the ODJDub's ROM. Everything is showing back in the play store. I am not sure as to what happened. Maybe a glitch in the Matrix lol. I did clear the caches and even went as far as installing an old market.apk. But Flashing to the new ROM seemed to fix it. It was not that I wanted the app from the store so much as to finding out that I was being restricted from the apps themselves. I do understand that the app store is device/carrier specific. But it shoild not have made a difference from a stock TB to a rooted TB. That was more the point I was psuhing. I did not nor do I ever like having the restriction placed againt my device. Is that not the reason why we aquire S-off?
I'm certain there was something in your build.prop that IDs your phone to the Market that was blocking this. Knowing your phone is rooted or not, I don't believe, can be checked beforehand. Now, once the app starts installing, it could check. Another scenario that I'm 100% certain of is when the app tries to run for the first time, it can check for root access and at that point, it can run or not run (and warn the user).
The Market can be finicky. My wife's phone runs Skyraider Zeus on her Thunderbolt and has for many, many months. Last week, apps that she has ran in the past now don't appear in the Market. Rest assured, she changed NOTHING in her build.prop file. I login on the PC and she has (2) phones listed, one is "HTC Thunderbolt" and the other is "ADR6400L". The ADR6400L is what the Market thinks is current and apps aren't compatible with that phone because they effectively don't know what it is...
I had issues with the market running skyraider and ikream. Themed markets will cause incompatibility problems sometimes. Maybe try getting LCD density modder pro and use their modded market.
