[Motorola Atrix 2] DusThis:
If you're using stock then you shouldn't have to FXZ your phone. With the phone OFF hold the up & down volume keys, and then press your power button. It should pop up the "Boot Mode Selection Menu" Release both the volume keys and then press the down volume once to highlight "Recovery." Then press the volume up button to start your recovery. Scroll to "wipe data/factory reset" using the volume down key and when it is selected press the power button. Then navigate to the "Yes -- delete all user data" using the volume keys (up or down) and press the power key when it is selected. After it has finished, it will show the first menu again. Then navigate to the "wipe cache partition" and follow the same steps as the wipe data/factory reset instructions. Once it goes back to the first menu after wiping the cache partition, then press the power button ("reboot system now" should be selected) and when your phone boots back up it will be like you just got it out of the box except you WILL still have all of your pictures and your videos. :D
[Motorola Atrix 2] PassingThruLife:
Is there a way to get to my texts and call history?

I need those texts as they have numbers and things i do not have saved anywhere else.

Basically,is there a way to fix this problem without factory resetting is what im asking.

I will try anything,please.
[Motorola Atrix 2] lkrasner:
are you rooted? if so you can reset then get all of your data back (I can explain how if you are)

If not, do you have usb debugging enabled? if so you can do a temporary root, just enough to dump your system so you can reset then restore your data the same way
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Let's start here, try telling us exactly what happened and what you did to get yourself into this situation. For instance, are you rooted, running any custom roms, or are you on stock Android 2.3.6.? Which model of ATRIX 2: MB865 or ME865? Anything else you can tell us that you have done? The more information you can give, the better!
[Motorola Atrix 2] lkrasner:
this would all be helpful. as long as he has usb debugging on he can use the root exploit to open things up enough to try pushing a launcher and if that fails dump the system so that data can be restored
[Motorola Atrix 2] PassingThruLife:
100% stock.I have themb865.Only thing changed is I updated it when Motorola released that update,the one people said fixed the cam.

Here is a video of it,notice how long it takes to start up and when it reaches the screen,nothing happens.If I were to call the phone however it would work and I can receive calls.Also if I press the power button the screen wont turn back on unless I call it.It will run very hot as well.
[Motorola Atrix 2] PassingThruLife:

[Motorola Atrix 2] kousik:
1. Can you try bringing it up without the SD card? If you can, the card may be corrupted, may be need to put to a computer for fsck.

2. Can you connect to it via ADB? Then there are ways (google for exact command syntax: adb pull /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases ... in fact pull out entire /data/data, you can extract all your contacts, sms, call log from there) to dump/restore your data.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Fall of Enosis:
Like i said a few posts up bud, follow the link i provided and flash the fxz. It will fix your issue. Your pics will remain on the sd card, but yes you will lose your texts. Your contacts are backed up by your google account.
[Motorola Atrix 2] PassingThruLife:
I tried to take the SD card out,same thing.The SD card I got in there now is a different one I popped in the phone so I dont misplace it.It's definitely not the SD card.

I am using an older phone,my contacts are not all there,infact most arent. I need my texts as there is numbers and info in there I cant lose.

I will try what you suggested,is there any other things I should do?
[Motorola Atrix 2] PassingThruLife:
I should add,the last app I installed was that Lookout Security app.

I should have stuck with Samsung,never again will I get a Motorola phone.

Hello every one,

does anyone know an application that does navigate thru the screen instead of always push the back button for example ?

another thing, the phone app and camera takes a little bit to start the first time is there any way to keep it always alive ?

i am running 4.0.4 431 stock version in my ARC S and very happy with it, rolled the

Xperia NXT Transformation pack for ICS v2.00 and it looks fantastic.

thank you all.
[Android Apps and Games] corei7qm:
For those, who are searching for an Market Enabler/Unlocker...since Google deleted them!!!

There you go!!
[Android Apps and Games] neshro:
Do i need to be rooted for this to work?
[Android Apps and Games] corei7qm:
Yes, just long press on the provider you would fake, choose your option,

Then, kill market (with taskkiller or long press back button or press 1 000 000 times the back button til the home screan appears) then open market again and now your specific privider is faked!
[Android Apps and Games] neshro:
Killed it by task killer, i still keep getting a "we got a problem housten" !! :D
[Android Apps and Games] dave2metz:
I'm sorry, but what is this application all about?
[Android Apps and Games] neshro:
It sets a fake provider so you appear to google play as if u were in a different country so u can get apps that are designated for countries other than urs
[Android Apps and Games] neshro:
Just rooted my phone, app works now. It needs a Root for sure. Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Intellectua1:

[Android Apps and Games] lovekeiiy:
this app looks almost exactly like this one: Market Enabler. From what I saw, the only difference was the icon. It has the exact same markets to choose from.

This is their webpage: Market Enabler webpage. It's minimal, and pretty bare bones.

Other useful information:

Wiki Mobile Network Codes. This gives a list of codes for carriers world wide which can be used in the "set custom"

If this is the same app, then key information to know:

Not working

Is not doing anything. I long press chose one of the US carriers and enter Market (which I had previously killed) and nothing, I still get the same apps of my country. (im already root)

What is happening?
[Android Apps and Games] tltan86:
Make sure you kill Google Play Store from "Manage Apps > All" first.

Alternatively, you can do it manually:

1. Kill Google Play Store from "Manage Apps > All".

2. Go to MarketEnabler, under "Set custom" tab, input that specific country market code you wanted to visit.

3. Select "Set to this values".

4. Go to Google Play Store.

5. Enjoy! :D

or try this another MarketEnabler (previously MarketEnabler Codes) app: https://plus.google.com/110853353138524936530/posts

[Android Apps and Games] sphinxcs898:
Just came across this thread. I am in China so I dont have to explain why Google and the Gov don't get along. All apps are blocked and its been a pain ever since I installed a JB rom a month back.

Thanks to this though, I don't have to copy APKs and install one by one!

bayu_104:

Download the apk from the first post (OP), then place it in your SD card.

In your phone, check - Install from Unknown sources option

Install from apk. and once you open the app, change setting to T-Mobile or Verizon. (Give Allow when su asks for permission)

Restart Play services - (for that, goto Apps section in your phone, search for the Google Play Store app and select Force Stop.

When you open play store now, you should be able to see all apps (paid and free)

has stopped working now

hi all,

This app worked like a charm before on my One X running CM10. But now I think it has messed up my playstore. Doesnt display new apps and the first screen you see, the one with the editors choice and staff picks and recommended for you, it never changes anymore. I mean before it displays new content every day, but now, one boring content for two weeks. No new apps either. Also happened to my big brothers s3. but for once only. now, same as me, no new content. Like all the store has stopped. I'm going to try to flash my rom again, as nothing I have read throughout this forum seem to fix this issue for me. Will post once i get this done with.

ps. My country's play store is complete rubbish. No, really. no paid apps, just small stuff, few cool ones...... :(
[Android Apps and Games] aban714:
yup........we are screwed. Only two solutions : buy a new phone, move to USA ( or somewhere google play is fully available ). I've tried everything. Different ROMS, different accounts, restoring, flashing stock RUU, what do i have to do to get this working again....????
[Android Apps and Games] Nidzo80:
Try this application https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vpnoneclick.android

Select USA server, Force stop Google play / clear data , open Play Store and you will see this
[Android Apps and Games] dikime:
Same here, all Market "emulators" stopped working, didn't change ROM or anything. I guess Google did something on their side, because even with no SIM inserted, it's still showing my native PlayStore, which is complete rubbish (fart apps in Top 10).

Hope this can be resolved with an app update, but since PlayStore paid apps are available almost anywhere, development of such software stopped because that used to be the real problem. Still I'd be super happy if someone fixes it, because only being able to buy stupid apps is not better than nothing at all.
[Android Apps and Games] dikime:

All you have to do is connect to US or UK server using tunnel bear. Wait till it says connected.

Then clear cache of google play, no need to clear data, and force close google play.

Then open google play. It says agree or not to google play agreement just press yes, then walaa. All paid and apps games are shown again :D you don't even need market enabler anymore :D

Also my google play Ui changed. And here's proof of tunnel bear do worked. Enjoy! :)

as i know this region locking is on server side, not in playstore app again,

so no need to try down grade the playstore its pointless,

i have try downgrade from 3.10.10 , 3.7.15 to market version 3.1.5 with no update mod, and all with market enabler and market access, the result is still same, damn i hate this!

market unlocker is same, the different is only adding proxy feature
[Android Apps and Games] dikime:
OK, so Google is acting kinda weird lately, not that they are wrong ( using Market Enablers is strictly, cheating ), but still easy access to apps = more buying = more money.

Anyway, I managed to find a workaround.

Market Enablers/Accessers/Hackers/Cheaters DON'T work

VPN doesn't work for many, and I think it wouldn't work for anyone gradually

However, this method kinda does the trick. For the example, I'll be trying to connect to the USA PlayStore.

1) Search for 'US proxy server list" or similar.

2) From the link, find a proxy server you like. The site I use (proxynova) shows all kind of statistics for the server.

3) Download ProxyDroid from the PlayStore. NEEDS ROOT . But since you already use Market [something], you are rooted anyway.

4) Here is how it looks:

5) Change only these two fields:

- Host: enter the server IP adress as you see it (for example 255.255.2.55, don't add www or httр://)

- Port: the port number (for example 1234)

6) Press ON/OFF toggle at the top.

7) Kill your browser (Opera DOESN'T work, cause it uses proxy itself), then just go to play.google.com from the browser and browse/download whatever you want.

8) Switch off ProxyDroid when you're finished.

This works only for the mobile browser, PlayStore itself isn't affected, but still can download apps OTA. However if they are unavailable in your country, they won't appear in your Downloads section and you won't get updates unless you do it manually.

You can use a similar method to setup a proxy on your desktop/laptop. Don't use "proxy sites" (that let you enter a URL in a field and it does the magic for you), because Google detects it and won't let you sign in.

another free VPN

OpenVPN service called private tunnel works. gives u 100mb free(believe its daily). there is a link to the play store app on their site. also gives u 200mb for everyone referred that signs up for the free service.

As someone mentioned earlier; once you're connected and open google play simple disconnect from VPN and play store works while u conserve VPN bandwidth.

here is my referrer link..

Private Tunnel Link

or the link to the main site..

http://www.privatetunnel.com/

was able to get free Busta Rhymes album and free tupac song of the day from music store :)

this new store looks nice!!
[Android Apps and Games] physman:
Thanks for that!

I used this service for most of the night last night while looking through the play store. If used in conjunction with market enabler you will be able to purchase books, movies, and music if your credit card has a US address. Speeds were quite fast as well. I couldn't get Tunnelbear to work at all.
[Android Apps and Games] dikime:
Well, I must be in some kind of a top-security PlayStore prison, cus for the millionth time, VPN doesn't work for me. No cleaning of cache/data, reboots etc. *copy&paste my previous posts here* :(
[Android Apps and Games] theliquid:
It seems that Google implemented a better location analysis.

My location is now bound to my account. On the PC I cannot access the US Playstore any more (with US VPN enabled). When I logout I can browse the US Playstore normally. But when I log back in I only get the playstore of my country.

Changing billing addresses didn't help either ...
[Android Apps and Games] georgios73:
Tried this but once I logged in to my account the apps that were showing in search results just vanished. Shame.
[Android Apps and Games] Mikuz.:
Country restrictions are not something to mess around for Google. While many of the restrictions seem to be placed for silly reasons some may involve licensing and other issues (which of course, as user, I could not care less about). However Google has to play right about this.

I can't see why VPN would not work. Try OpenVPN redirect-gateway. It forces all Internet connections through VPN on network configuration level, no need to restart any apps.

P.S. Not using Opera proxies.
[Android Apps and Games] niyax:
I think you should try VPN one click.

It work for me

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] miczk:
I am having problems with VPN and I do not know why. When I connect and open Play Store on browser I see full version but when I log in to my account I can download just applications and everything else disappears.

Any idea how to sole it?
[Android Apps and Games] dikime:
I think we have the correct answer. No other way to explain why "cheating" on so many levels (VPN through phone, Market enabler(s), Proxies on PC) doesn't work. If I manage to contact a friend in the US i'll ask her to log in from there using my account and will see what happens.
[Android Apps and Games] lovekeiiy:
I couldn't agree more. VPN never worked. It's nice to know it wasn't just me having the Play Store not change regions when changing the GSM carrier codes.

It's possible Google is now tying the region base off your Google account, where it was setup. If true, than it may be possible to setup another Google account in the USA or other country. I assume you would need to use a VPN to pull an appropriate IP.

Unlike most of you, I'm usually trying to get apps available only outside the USA such as the BBC iPlayer, and NFL Game Pass. The bad part, it's more difficult to get app updates. Although, it's possible.

If you go into Google Play, go to your apps, and then all (the default is installed), you can get then scroll though your app history. If the app is installed, and has an update, it will show update. Otherwise the apps will shows installed, free, or purchased. Free and purchased will show a ⊘	symbol, which removes the app for your app history. So, if you have the app installed, you can at least get updates. You can also use this to install apps on a new device or reinstall. I did the prior when I got my Note 2.

Before, if you went to region the apps were available, when to the install app section in Google Play, it would show the normal list of apps that needed to be updated.
[Android Apps and Games] Ghisy:
Thanks for the tip!! I have a few US and Japanese apps (I'm in Europe) installed and I was able to update them using this trick.

So there's no way we can access other countries' PlayStores now then? It sucks because I liked browsing Japanese apps from time to time... Boo Google! :(
