Hi,
I am not sure if this is the correct section to post this query.
I am in India. I tried to order the Google Nexus 4 from the Google Play Store using my office machine, which connects to the net using a US proxy. However, I cancelled my order later. Now the Play Store on my current phone shows all US content and I am forbidden from installing India only apps. The country in my Google Account still shows India and so does my address in Google Wallet (I had deleted the US addresses that I had obtained from a package forwarding service). Please help me get this resolved.
Thanks
even i have the same problem...
reset the app settings ?

From Google :
Thanks for contacting us about country support for Google Play. We use the billing address of your default payment instrument in Google Wallet to help determine your home country for accessing the Play Store. Our collection of content can vary by country, so your view of the Play Store may differ from what others are seeing when you travel outside of the country listed on your default payment method's billing address.
Please note that you must have a valid payment method with a billing address located inside a country in order to access that country's Play Store.
If you're having issues viewing your intended country's Play Store and would like to change your default payment method or update an existing billing address in Google Wallet, please use the following steps:
1) Sign into your Google Wallet account to manage your payment methods (https://wallet.google.com/manage/paymentMethods)
2) Add a new card or change your default payment instrument to one with a billing address located inside your desired country
3) Open the Play Store and navigate to any item available for download
4) Click to begin a download until you reach the "Accept and buy" screen (no need to complete the purchase)
5) Close the Play Store and clear data for the Google Play Store application (Settings > Apps > Google Play Store > Clear Data) or clear your browser cache
6) Re-open the Play Store. You should now see the Play Store that matches your default payment instrument's billing country.
If you haven't yet added a payment method to your account for the first time, please add a card directly from the Play Store with a billing address that matches your intended country location. Then, follow steps 3 through 6 to show your intended country's Play Store.
If you believe that you're experiencing a different location-related issue, please first verify if the country of your primary payment method matches your intended country. If the countries match, please provide any screenshots and additional details that might help me resolve your issue.
We appreciate your feedback as we continue bringing more content to Google Play. Thank you for reaching out!
This worked for me, however on my second device I had to wipe Play store data/cache then re-accept T&C's

First of all i did not found an apropiate sub forum to start my thread, so really sorry if this is a wrong forum. I owned galaxy nexus so I thought this would be a good sub forum
Now let's come to the main issue.
Recently an anti islamic movie was upload to Youtube. Which creates alot of tension in the 3rd world.... Pakistan's government block the website across the Pakistan to protest against the video. And YouTube will remained close till the removal of that video (which ain't gonna happen like this).
As you all know that Pakistan is one of the most corrupt countries in the world. Pakistan telecommunication authority hire inexperienced IT experts due to political pressures. These incompetent employees and government could not manage to block the YouTube properly at first. So PTA immediately block the IP of YouTube. But in doing of such impotent work by our ****ty government more then half of Google services become unusable in Pakistan. We can't connect to gmail account on our android and not even play store.
We can not download apps from the app store because of such failed action of our government.
As you know that YouTube is owned by Google. Yoiube IP is same as most of the Google's ip's.
PTA have blocked the IP so many Google services had stop.
In light of above explanation I need a work around on how open my gmail account and play store. Any help would be highly appreciated.
I know through proxy I can unblock the websites. But I,m unable to sync my gmail account through proxies because of the Google's high security. And I still can not download apps via market through proxy.
Give me a good suggestion. Any work around, any good proxy please.
Any modified Google play store.
I have galaxy nexus, galaxy note HTC desire and Asus transformer. All of them could not connect to Google services due to this blockage. And I know this problem had spread across whole of the android users in pakistan.
Refrain from political discussion or abusing thanks.

Hi,
I'm a Canadian in the US for the next few days and would like to sign up for the Google Play Music service. However, despite logging into my account from a US IP address, I still get the error message that this service is not yet avaiable in my country or territory.
A lot of sites state it's easy to sign up once you log in from a US IP using a vpn or proxy in Canada, but I'm in the US and still having trouble.
Could someone help me sort this out? These same sites also claim that once you've signed up, you can access the service in Canada.
What is Google looking at to identify I have a Canadian account? I've changed my G+ profile info to a US address (the one I'm staying at), changed my credit card info to this same US address in Google Wallet, and the only thing I can think of that still ties me to Canada is my phone number.
What am I missing?
Thanks in advance!
You could try a few things
I'd say use a VPN to signup with a US Google email address, download a google music apk somewhere other than playstore, if it doesn't have it available in Canada then sign in with that info, though accessing may be country restricted too so even playing it may be a hassle. I suggest using a program called tunnelbear. buy a subscription for a year of service, it offers VPN for Canada, US, UK, and many others. I use it to stream BBC content through the BBC iPlayer application on my android phone.

Hope this helps
Hey tswillette, thanks for the tip. If I can't sort this out while I'm here, I'll try your approach when I get back home.
Hello I want to ask how to change play store region in order to download nfs nl which is currently available in Netherlands. I have searched and tried many methods but none of them worked. Can someone help me?
Thanks in advance
Do you have any payment method set in Google Wallet? Google Play determines your location by checking your payment method records, if I am not wrong. I mean, Google finds your location by using your billing address.

Yes I had a card but I have deleted it
Hi,
I have some (big) trouble with the google play store and the country setting. I'm an expat software engineer and are changing my location frequently. The play store only allows me to change my country once a year and to change the country I need a payment method in this country. It's not always easy to create a bank account in any country and I don't want to create always a bank account. Besides in many countries you only get a credit card if you are having a monthly income in that country. And even then there is still one year barrier to change your country.
Usually it's not a big deal as most apps are available every where. But some serves apps for government, cell carrier, public transportation and others are region locked. It is very annoying and troublesome not to have access to them.
Is there any best practice to change the country? Is the only way to have multiple google accounts or is there a more convenient way?
Thanks up front for your help.
Hi there
I hope this is the right category for this question : we are trying to publish an app on android play store with in-app purchases, but we have been blocked for days by a currency problem.
The google account is based in Ukraine and we entered a payment method in the form of a Ukrainian currency (Hryvnia) account. As a result, the prices of IAP items had to be entered in Hryvnia. When the player wants to make an in-app purchase, Google does send us a price in the player's local currency (e.g. euro in France) which we display in the game. But then, when the google payment window is displayed, the price is in Hryvnia and not in the local currency, which is not convenient for us.
Is this normal? What should we do to make sure that Google displays the price in the local currency?
We searched the web but we havent found any usefull information. We asked our question to google support but we havent received any feedback (!). We tried to change the payment method by using a dollar account, which is allowed by the Ukrainian bank via an intermediary bank in Germany. But we still can't enter prices for IAP items other than in Hryvnia. Is this normal? Do we need to recreate an account and move the application if we want to change the payment method??
Thank you in advance for your answers
