I don't know if anyone of you ever used Market Enabler/Unlocker

Summarized? It's a wonderful app that allows you to change your carrier region to Verizon/TMobile and allows you to download apps from other regions, not just US. All it does is change your regional code via root and ofcourse it's reversible.

As of lately it doesn't work, can anyone report the same, happened to all of my Nexus devices. GNexus, 4, 7

Google Play 3.10.10

My view is probably Google Play Services get's updated on it's own and killed it. Anyone found an alternate fix?

Tryed a few minutes ago. Worked fine.

Yes but that topic is 2012 February and the issue started a few days ago. Until then it worked fine for a year

I'm on same Google Play Store version and it works fine. Try clearing the Google account and re-login.

Hm, today I'm suddenly seeing local apps and prices in € too. I saw one user on reddit stating that he could see US apps as he had a US issued credit card, but he was in another EU country. So it may be that Google changed the policy of how the Store apps are shown regionally.

The upside is that the reviews aren't only local like they were before, but are the same, in English.

True but I had issued a US card and it only shows in $ when I'm at checkout.
