I have the same problem, it looks like when you register the first credit card the google account bounds to that cc country.

Is there any way to reset this config?

I used this VPN method several months.
But now it seems that Google bound my account to my REAL country. I can't make it work any more.

To show you that my account is bound I give you an example: accessing playstore my PC.
I activate my US VPN.
I browse to play.google.com. (not logged in in Google Account). I can see all US playstore content.
BUT: when I login into my account (with VPN activated) I only can see the playstore content of my REAL country.

I already delete all my billing addresses etc. Sadly this didn't help.

Any idea how to fix that?

I think I tried EVERYTHING....
Google really is locking the play store to where it thinks/knows it's your REAL home location.
Very bad for me that travel around every week... =\

It doesnt work.
The problem is not on the phone app.
Google somehow reckognized our location everywhere.
The solution probably has to do with tricking google account, not the play store app.

Exactly...
And what makes me sure that it has something to do with Google Settings app and the main android google account is that this is happening only to my main one.
My two other accounts still are IP/simcard based. On one of my accounts I even have only a brazilian CC and it still connects to the us playstore through vpn. On android or desktop.

Only the main one is "unchangeable". No matter what.
And it all started the day Google Settings app appeared.

What seems to have happened is that on the day it got installed, I was in brazil.
I always connect through vpn because my home and office has a router connected to strongvpn.
And out of nowhere, on this day, it showed up that Play Store Term of Service... And it sent me to the brazilian Play Store.
I thought my vpn got disconnected... Double checked my ip. Still connected to US. Tried hulu. Working.
Went to desktop. Also brazilian play store. But when i signed out. I got the US play store.
Tried my other accounts on my phone and desktop.. All with US playstore.

So i'm pretty sure SOMETHING happened last week IN google account settings, not play store.

Bingo I've come to realize that too. My account is set to US by default weird enough. The latest update 3.14 I still have the US store without any VPN. Weird enough loading the play store on the pc gives me the US store without any proxy.

Any U.S. play store app or media worth going through all this trouble for? That's somehow not in third-party sites/stores?

A lot of countries play stores don't have access to any media at all - no music, movies, books or magazines so that alone is reason enough for me to want to use the US store.

i am in singapore but my account was tied to the US Playstore for the past weeks.....until yesterday i bought the humble bundle for android using the mastercard with my Singapore Address (instead of the AMEX with US Address which i normally used for online purchases) and now it is tied to the Singapore Playstore no matter what...tried Hotspot/Hideman vpn, i was sure i am connecting from US and still defaulted to singapore playstore..

Its better to use market unlocker .. Thats the way ya can easily unlock play store without any difficulties ... Bt it needs root privilage

I got a solution.

Ok guys. I found a solution for now.

Importunately you are all right. Google has tied our accounts based on multiple factors from what I can tell.
- Credit card information on Google Wallet
- Market where you bought you're Google device.
- Mobile carrier.

The temporary solution is quite simple. Create a new Google account while in the US or using a VPN.
Very important. Do it while connected to Wi-fi in airplane mode (no mobille connection).

How to use Google Play (US) on the road then?
That's where Market Unlocker comes in. If you enable Market Unlocker it will indeed emulate the sim card.
You'll still need the VPN connection to access the US store.

So what you need is :
- New account built while in the US or on US VPN
- Market Unblocker to simulate your SIM
- US VPN enabled while accessing Google Play Store.

Anyway, a message to Google.
I understand that some developers don't want people from one nation to access the apps on another one. I can understand that there are price differences and all that. With that said I do believe that it makes little sense if an American visiting or working in France can't get their Chase Mobile app or their HBO Go app. Apple and Microsoft has a better solution in this regard. You can create an US account with your US address and use it without any issues while outside the US. Yes, some content will be blocked but quite frankly what's the point of building so many restrictions to people that travel.
What's the point of making me switch from my French carrier SIM to my Verizon SIM, having to connect to a VPN and all that just so I can download apps from the US store?
And by the way, If I'm visiting France and connected to Wi-fi, I can download apps from the French app store. So when I get to the US again I keep the French apps. Makes no sense.

Dear Google, If most of the websites I visit are in English. If most of the stuff I do is in English, if I travel a lot, if I have a valid address in the US, if even my phone language is in English (US) and so on, shouldn't all this mean that I should be US bound instead of "insert other nation market" bound? Go to an airport and check the hundreds of people travelling in and out of the US. Don´t maker it so hard for us travelers.
And by the way. I mention both Microsoft and Apple for a reason. Their system blocks most people while still being easy to use for those with a valid US account.

i doubt google read you reply or cares....really..

and i don't think this move is to appease the developers....this is more to appease the big labels...more on the record music labels and movie companies..

Nice Work :good:

damn !!! its working ... i did Not know its very easy to hack lolz
