[Q] How to download region locked apps - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I have recently relocated to London and there are a few apps I would like to download (for my phone account, bank account etc).
However play store does not allow me to download these apps, saying they are not available in my country.
What do I need to do/What settings do I need to change so that play store can download these apps?
Thanks.

What happens while using same GMAIL A/C on 2 androids !

Wanted to buy a phone for my wife & just had this thought !! I use my GMAIL account just for the sake of operating play store , if the same GMAIL ID is incorporated on my wife's android (if i buy one for her) then will she be able to use all the apps purchased by me on that account ??
Whenever you purchase a paid app it registers with your Mobile IMEI so whenever you try to install it on any other device again it cross check the IMEI so it is not possible to use paid app simultaneously in two device!

Then , when i change my device (Galaxy S plus-->S II -->S3) even then the IMEI no changes & yet when i put in my GMAIL I get back all my paid apps !! It has nothing to do with IMEI NO. but with my GMAIL A/C !! .

Not true, SOME apps use there own IMEI checking however all paid apps are simply linked to your google account so you can access them across any device your logged into.
I know this because I have in the best had up to four devices with my account on all of which had the paid apps installed
EDIT
and to answer the OP yes any paid apps you purchase will be made available for download on any device that that accounts signed into

Can't download apps from Play Store!

This is the capture I did. I already cleared cache for Play Store and Google frame services.

Can't download Airdroid or is it all apps? What ROM. What Play Store version?
Delete your Google account and re-add it (from main system settings, account... not in Google play). Make sure you remember your username/pass. Works for me.. but it seems to be needed every so often again.. not sure if there's permenant fix. Using stock Google Play 3.10.10
Just started happening last couple of days.

Go to settings, applications, "all", clear cache + wipe data on Google Play Store AND Google Play Services, reboot into recovery, wipe cache + dalvik cache. Should fix it.

Full Playstore on PC / Device

I'm from India and we do not have full playstore. As soon as I login even when using USA VPN, play store shows me only apps and not the full version. Although as soon as i logout i can again view full play store.
Till 2 days ago I was able to access full site after login.
What can be the reason?? Plz help
On same PC when I use my brother's id I can see full play store. Something wrong with my account..??? It seems like Google has blocked my account for these services. M not able to make any purchases other than from App section.

Clear data for the app store and then sign into your original account. Also make sure that the account you're trying to use for the paid apps is the on you bought them with originally.
It might also help if you remove your Google account from your phone and try setting it up again.

Sooo let me get this straight. Just so I can get my head around it. When you go to the page for the purchased app, it won't let you download it?

if you brought the app and have not download to your phone, they will show "Purchased" on play store.

And you are sure you are on the same Google account with the same Gmail address you used to first buy the apps? (Remember you can tie more than one Gmail address to the same account)

Okay. Clear the cache for the Google play store and give it 24 hours. It seems to be an issue with Google servers syncing between your device and google~
