Can't see some apps in Play Store with Open Sensation CM9

[acidbreather]

Hi,

I am having trouble loading some apps onto my Sensation running the Open Sensation CM9 ROM.

Specifically, there are certain OpenGL live wallpapers I want to use, such as 'Season Zen HD'

(I know these are bad for battery life - I just want to experiment with them!)

I get the message: "Your device isn't compatible with this version".

I tried modifying my build.prop (to make my phone appear as GT-I9100) but so far no luck.

The strange thing is, I was able to get this app to install when I was using my previous ROM: Virtuous Inquisition v4.0.2 :: AOSP-Experience Senseless ICS

..so the problem appears to be related to my CM9 rom - not the phone.

Can anyone help me here?

The market indeed looks at the build.prop to let you see apps, however is more than just one line that you should change. I would recommend that you look at another's ROM build.prop where you know you are able to see apps in the play store and then change them on your Sensation.

You will need to change about three of the lines related to the model, vendor, etc.
