[APP][2.2+][ROOT] Market Helper - spoof your device to download incompatible apps

[redphx]

Hi there, it's redphx again. You may know me from APK Downloader, an Chrome extension for downloading APK from your PC
Today I'm exciting to introduce my newest app, Market Helper. Hope you'll find it useful

Below contents are copied from Market Helper's hompage. Please go to there for latest information

*** USE AT YOUR OWN RISK *** I’ll not take responsibility for anything happen to you or your account

*** THIS APP IS FOR ROOTED DEVICES ONLY ***
( I’ll add some nice features for stock/non-rooted devices in later version )

What is this?

Market Helper is a tool for Android that helps users can change/fake their rooted devices to any other devices. It can make your Nexus 7 become Samsung Galaxy S3 in a few seconds. No reboot is required.

Why do I need to use this?

To download and install incompatible apps on your devices. For example, if you want to install Viber on your Nexus 7, switch it to Samsung Galaxy S3 and you’ll can. Or if you changed your DPI setting, you’ll find this app is very useful.

( I’ll update this section later ;P )

Why is this app awesome?

- It DOES NOT touch your build.prop or any system files so it’s easier and safer.

- You don’t have to reboot the device to update the change.

- You can switch back to your original device anytime, by using “Restore” feature or simply just reboot the device ( with wifi/3g is enabled )

- Totally free

Download link


Market Helper

Supports: Android 2.2+

Tested on Nexus 7 and Samsung Galaxy S3, running JellyBean 4.1.2

How to use?

1. Download and install the app:

2. Open the app. Select the device and carrier you want to change to ( [P] = Phone, [T] = Tablet )

3. Press Activate. Wait until it’s done

4. IMPORTANT: go to Android Device Manager to update the change ( just visit the page, you don’t need to do anything ). I’ll find a way to bypass this step in later versions

5. Have fun. Now you can download and install apps that you couldn’t before.

If you want to switch back to normal, select “Restore” in device list and press “Activate”, or simply reboot the device ( with wifi/3g is enabled )

This really is an interesting app, will you make it multi-language? I can provide Italian language translation and I'd be glad to help.

This app only helps you install incompatible apps from play store, it doesn't mean that you can use it. About whatsapp, I think the only way to use it is editing build.prop file

Sweet idea! Unfortunately, I still get "token not found" even after installing your update on your website. I'm running tw-based gingerbread 2.3.5 on a samsung galaxy player 4.0.

Was trying to use this (following your directions) in hopes of downloading Real Racing 3. Unfortunately play store still says I can't. I'm wondering if I need to use this in conjunction with editing my build prop. Any ideas?

Edit: Or would it be better to try using the apk downloader?

Try going to the web version of Play Store and pushing the installation from there

Has anybody used this to get Wallet on a Galaxy 3?

 

[Sm0k3d 0uT]

Just curious if this will work with Amazon App Store?

Linking back Play Store to the old original device

Hi! Thanks for the great app!

But I have a problem now. I've restored the device to default (Motorola Xoom Wifi) and now I'm not able to install/update some apps that I've already installed before and that are fully compatible (like Google+). These apps simply doesn't appear if I search them into PlayStore from the tablet.

If I look at PlayStore via web, I see that I have two devices named Motorola Xoom. The last one is showing "incompatible" with apps like Google+ and the old one shows it's compatible, but when I click install, nothing happens into my Xoom.

I think I need to relink my "phisical" device to this "old Motorola Xoom" device in Play Store web, but I don't know how.

Can anybody help me?

Thanks a lot!

Hey, sorry I missed your post, lol. It still says "Token Not Found" in 1.1
Also, my device did come with google services preinstalled.
