I changed my DPI from 160 to 180 in my LXdroid 0.2 and now some stuff in Google Play says my device isn't supported.
I was wondering if there's a way to fix/tweak this into making everything show up? I know some apps won't work, like app's that aren't made for GingerBread.
I'm using DPI Changer from Google Play. Didn't try changing it in build.prop yet.
Hi there
I use an app called lucky patcher to patch Google play and I don't have any problem with what ever density setting I use hope it helps. He's the app bud

Which patching option did ya use? I know Lucky gives ya a lot of options.
I updated lucky patcher then used
Multi patch. no. Restrictions. 240dpi.3.10.9.com.android.vending
Ives used different dpi and have had no trouble with Google play hope this helps you out

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.

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.
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...

You can edit the dpi directly from the build.prop file in /system folder. You'll need a file explorer with root-access and mount the /system folder as writable. But often you will find that the Play Store will detect the changed dpi and some apps will be reported as "not compatible" with your resolution.
Alternatively, you can use PA/PAC Roms that allow you to modify dpi for the UI and for each app individually. This is very safe and prevents Play Store from being affected.

Use "Textdroider DPI" from play store, Additionally use Xposed framework and Play Store Fixes to send normal DPI to playstore so apps don't get incompatible notice.
^ Forgot about the best method: Xposed.
Sorry. lol

I recommend you this app: Textdroider DPI.
It worked for me.
Play store
Textdroider DPI is awesome :laugh:
Thanks alot guys it worked
