Some Android apps on Google Play claim to be incompatible with Samsung galaxy Star There’s a good chance that these apps will run fine on many of our device – you can bypass this check with root access.

Some apps won’t actually work after you install them, but many will. This also solves problems with games that will install but refuse to play – for example, Gameloft games with the “this device is incompatible” message.

Tools needed:
*Rooted Samsung Galaxy Star
*ES File Explorer "Get it from here "
*Brain

Steps:
1-Launch ES File Explorer , Go to setting panel , Enable Root Explorer , And grant it root access.
2-Navigate to the /system/ directory on your device and locate the build.prop file.
3-You should create a copy of the original build.prop file elsewhere – long-press on it, select Copy, and then Paste it into another folder – say, your /sdcard/ folder.
4-Now you’re ready to edit the file. Long-press it, select Open As, select Text, and select the ES Note Editor app.
5-Google Play makes decisions about your device based on a number of build.prop settings

6-
Code:
ro.product.model

ro.product.brand

ro.product.name

ro.product.device

ro.product.manufacturer

ro.build.fingerprint


Samsung’s Galaxy S2 is a popular choice to fake devices to.

Now we are gonna Edit build.prop
make those edits to your build.prop

Code:
ro.product.model=GT-I9100

ro.product.brand=samsung

ro.product.name=GT-I9100

ro.product.device=GT-I9100

ro.product.manufacturer=samsung

ro.build.fingerprint=samsung/GT-I9100/GT-I9100:4.0.4/IMM76D/ZSLPQ:user/release-keys
Now the latest step
Go into the Settings screen, select Applications, select Manage Applications, tap the All category, and select the Google Play app. Clear its cache and data, and then restart your device


Warning :
Any mistake done to build.prop may lead to damage your phone or break your software , you should be careful while editing this file , I'm Not responsible for any thing happens to your phone

If you don't wanna take the risk of editing build.prop , you’d rather just bypass the whole process and use an app, we know of at least two:
*Market Helper
*Device Spoofer
