Question Missing apps in ICS play store

I upgraded my A100 to stock ICS ROM Acer_AV041_A100_1.012.00_WW_GEN1.zip and found many apps are missing from Play Store. If I download them from app store website in browser, it says "incompatible with your device".

Does anyone knows why and is there a solution to this issue?

Thanks a lot!

Did you happen to have a modded build.prop prior to upgrading to the stock ics? By the way .012 is not the stock (if i'm not mistaken) its the last leak prior to the stock....014 IS THE stock...

Thanks for the reply.
I didn't do anything special on build.prop before to .012 rom.
I just flashed to Acer_AV041_A100_1.014.00_WW_GEN1 but the problem (missing apps) still exists.

One example of missing apps is ireader (full version). I can only see ireader (offline). From the other tablet (Nook Color CM9), I can see both versions of ireader.

I also tried to edit build.prop as suggested in this forum to mimic my A100 as A500 in Play Store (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1525964), still no luck.

Can anyone help me out? There are many apps I use heavily but cannot load onto A100.

Thanks

Lightbulb Development?

I'm pretty sure thi isn't development... Sounds alot like a question that needs an answer. If you want to get a better response, you might want to delete this thread and re-post in the correct forum. Also when you get some time, drop by and read forum rules... Jus sayin'

Pretty much correct, dev is for releases of some sort, not questions. Buuuuut since its already here may as well pitch in lol.

Modded build.prop is most common way around it, but you can also side load apps from other sources and install from SD or adb.
