All Access doesn't work for me. I originally set up my account via proxy ages ago before it was available in the UK. I've tried changing my address in Google wallet to US and accessed via proxy but when I hit the free trial button it just sends me to my library. Also, if I try to go to the shop, everything is listed in £ and not $. It seems to know I'm in the UK and no proxy seems to fool it.
[Nexus 7 General] jtc42:
I'm getting the exact same thing here. It's stuff like this that worries me that signing up early from the UK will have implications when it properly launches here.

I think the potential implications are greater if it's US only due to licencing. If it's just because of a slow rollout then I imagine it's less of a problem.
[Nexus 7 General] gifton1:
I'm having the same issue. I am actually working in the States for a few weeks, so dont need a vpn - I but I did still have a UK credit card on my account. Changing the billing address etc did not work.

In the end, I deleted all of my previous payment methods and the store is still coming up in £ and not $. I think it is to do with my home location in Google Wallet. However, I am not able to change my home location, it says: "Your home country (United Kingdom) cannot be changed because you have Google Play balance". I have £0.14 balance left over from the free credit that I got when I bought my Nexus 7. Problem is that I can't seem to spend the 14 pence as no app is that cheap and it doesnt seem to let you split a purchase between different payment methods.

Anyone got any ideas?!

Got it working from the UAE - used overplay.net (my standard paid vpn I use), used the Chicago server.

What worked for me step by step for those having issues (might be handy for someone!):

Log on using vpn

Goto music.google.com

Click signup for all access

Enter my normal uae card details with the Microsoft details as given before (huge thanks for that!), though I just used the given zip, used my name instead of microsoft in the name part.

Then it asks you for an address and telephone number, I made up an address and made up a us mobile number following the schema of some random one found on google.

That worked perfect, then just went into google wallet and switched my address back to my real one, hopefully the charge should go through perfectly next month!

Liking having all access plus my 20k uploaded songs!

Edit: It seems to be fine, Google has taken 1 AED from my account to verify the card and everything is still working :)

Worked for me with Canadian Credit Card and using name as Microsoft Corporation and ZIP as 98052, used SecurityKISS free version to fake US location during first visit to music.google.com, didn't sign up for all access, just free google music account.
[Nexus 7 General] MattSkeet:
exactly the same here :(. No matter what I change I get currency in £ not in $. Moreover even with VPN I still cant see Free trial thingy anywhere
[Nexus 7 General] bkmaracas:
Had surprising easy time here (UK) - on my PC browser, just went to play music site no VPN or proxy gubbins and followed the all access option, it had my old card details so i updated, and used googles postcode ( all it asked for on first page) , then its address on next page. Hit go and boom.. Now enjoying the music candy store.! Is pretty good tbf. Noticed some thinnness in catalogue eg Beatles, metallica, the usual suspects... But cool.

If u try and fail , well i canni Explain of it.. ;)

Come to think, I used that laptop to setup Google music before it got to UK ages ago using VPN , and installed music manager signed up etc , so could have a bearing, browser cookie giving me a US user's form for example, thinks I'm a yank..

They changed something ?

[Nexus 7 General] kafej666:
Not working here. Google made some changes and now they probably check where your Google account was created first.

Thats sux ... I was really happy for this 20000 song for free in cloud ;(
[Nexus 7 General] Paronfesken:
Can anyone confirm this?
[Nexus 7 General] snapsnail:
I can confirm that changing the address on your credit card and using a proxy no longer works. Has anyone had any luck recently?
[Nexus 7 General] Kirkados:
Don't use Chrome when trying to sign up for Google Music. Either use Incognito mode or another browser. I think Google has cookies on where you live and if they see you are spoofing to the states then they will deny you service. So using another browser solves the problem. Last time I tried this was December 30,2013.
[Nexus 7 General] mkuo:
Tried with ProxMate and Hola on incognito chrome, removed the out-of-US credit card payment method in Google wallet (some say it works and some say it doesn't), its a no go :crying:

There are still some credits left from my free $25 that came with my N7 purchase... don't know if that is what's compromising this or my past purchase records using credit card...
[Nexus 7 General] bnycastro:
I live in the Philippines (Asia)

Google Play is limited to Apps & Books in my country (as you guys know unlike iTunes you cannot change your country w/ your Google Account)

So I have been using an old Google Apps account (admin'd by my friend) + strongVPN + Entropay credit card -- yesterday 6-Feb-2014 I suddenly lost access to Play Music even w/ VPN on. I contacted my friend and he did not do anything to our Google Apps account. So it seems Google switched us to Asia/Philippines (?). I cleared payment methods on this and logged out.

I connected to VPN (USA server) on my device, created a new google account, and I got access back but now, when I add an Entropay VCC it is not working. I get an error and the transaction is canceled - I have tried the MSFT zip code trick, the Entropay zip code trick and both are not working

So right now I am stumped. I can upload music & stream to iOS/Android via the Play Music App but cannot purchase content. :eek:
[Nexus 7 General] delly47:
has anyone from canada that initially did the vpn and US credit card thing last year to get google play music, had trouble signing up for the canadian all access? It seems my google wallet is stuck with a US profile for play music and wont let me take advantage of the promo price of 7.99.

google play music was just released yesterday in canada. I have opened a support ticket with google.
[Nexus 7 General] Bactu:
They still know my real location

I've tried to hide my location using tunnelbear. And the sites like whatismyipaddress, speedtest and the like are fooled. But I've tried entering google maps and they still know my position. I guess they're using my WiFi info to know the place but, could they be using this info in order to block me from using music?
[Nexus 7 General] darthbii:
Any success here guys? :confused::crying:
[Nexus 7 General] agultiga:
Yes!! I've tried to make Google Movie working in Singapore (G Movie is not supported in Singapore). First of all, I used the app TunnelBear to make my Nexus 7's network address in U.S., then I can access to G Movie. To make it better, I regested Google Wallet by filling up random name and most importantly with a real U.S. post code(Important process which will allow you to access such Google service without regional restrition). After that I can still use G Movie without a U.S. network address.
[Nexus 7 General] NoSubstitute:
Yes, what matters today is the address registered for your credit card. Though, you still have to be using a USA IP address when registering for the first time. After that, you have to keep the US address on your CC if you want to keep using the store to buy music.

Just flash a newer kernel like the one by antonx
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mierkat09:
It does work, it updates it from red to blue, which is the new one
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
No it wont work he needs to update to antonx's kernel first. Read his op he has CWM 3.xxx and that will not let you upgrade to cm7.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
The wiki says to use 5.0.2.x because 3.x.x.x versions DO NOT work. You're giving the wrong advice again.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mierkat09:
But the first time you flash it,doesn't it update it to blue, and then you can use that to flash cm7, right?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
It flashes directly into the ROM and boots you CM7. Maybe you should try what you're recommending to do before you try giving people advice, you're relaying it by the way you understood it which isn't necessarily the way it actually works.

Go back to stock, try to flash CM7 from CWM 3.

Go back to stock, try to flash CM7 from CWM 5.0.2.X

Come back when you know what happens and you'll see why the instructions in the wiki are the way they are.

When you're in doubt about giving advice, read the official instructions. We try to make it as easy as possible for everyone to do this.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Fluidification:
mierkat, to make things simple there are 2 different version of "RED" CWM. The old version was back on Froyo and the early gingerbread leak custom kernels. We have moved on from then, and there is a NEW version of the 5.0.x.x CWMs. This is because bhundven's sms kernel's and fb's sms kernels used them. On all the current-ish GB roms like vb fb and other new ones, you have 5.0.x.x. So you are safe if you flash CM7-CM9-AOKP-AOSP by erikmm-other TKA-other TNo0b-etc... from these newer Touchwiz GB roms. The best way to check is by booting to recovery. If you have 3.x, then I recommend downloading Valhalla-Black by FBis251 which can be found in the general section. After flash, without rebooting, go to the main CWM home menu, then go to advanced, then choose reboot recovery. You should now be in a 5.0.x.x CWM. Here you can have fun!

EDIT: FB beat me to it :confused: :p
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mierkat09:
I see, sorry about that. Was confused because i thought the red was always 3.x and blue was 5.0.x.x. When i flashed cm7,i just followed the instructions in the wiki

[Motorola Droid RAZR] quarky42:
Even before I installed BootMenu, my phone would bring up the CWR based Recovery screen when I would power off and turn the phone back on instead of powering up normally. If I choose reboot from the CWR menu, then the phone would proceed to reboot normally.

After I installed BootMenu, I still have the same behavior. Can someone please help me figure out what I need to do to fix it so that it will reboot normally? It is not related to BootMenu. I only mentioned it to explain what I have intalled.

I am on a mostly stock (with some frozen apps) Verizon ICS on my Razr Maxx.

I'm wondering if I need to reflash the bootloader? Or maybe it is just an improper bootmode that is set? (I'm a little bit familiar with this but just enough to get myself in trouble if I start screwing around without consulting with smarter folks.)

Thanks.

Edit: I did find this:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] werked:
I've seen people mention this somewhere but can't remember where. Also, I was in the mall the other day looking for accessories and a guy at an AT&T kiosk said that this was the case. So, what do you guys/gals think??
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] zeesubalpha:
sounds like nonsense to me.

first of all i'm sure there are warehouses full of S3's waiting to be shipped, so there's no way to really tell when yours was manufactured when you buy it.

second of all, for this to happen, one of two things probably happened:

1) samsung overlooked a huge bug despite the massively hyped release

2) they've decided to make the phone better for no reason, which would probably tick off their most loyal customers (the people who bought it first)

finally, if this was true, samsung would probably have to offer some sort of way for people who got the first batch of s3's before the "improvement" to make their phones comparable to the new ones or they'd probably face some lawsuit

I remember one of the ROMs i downloaded had this functionality. When I left 3G/LTE off, and received a MMS, it would turn on 3G by itself to allow the download of the MMS, then turn it off by itself. Is there any way to do this currently? Am I missing a certain setting?

I Stupidly did not do a full nandroid (CWM) backup before updating to Onyx Rom :eek:

I had a 2nd brand new TG but was sold on Sunday before I could dump the rom.

So you need to

1. Root

2. Unlock Boot Loader

3. Install CWM

4. Reboot into CWM and do a full backup

5. Upload the backup for the Devs (seanzscreams) to take a look at. Dont Flash a new rom till you have completed step 5!

Any particular reason for this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Some people wanna do their own mods rather than install a custom ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ratlegion:
Well, have have done installs for many custom roms, but this phone is just for my wife, so I just wanted to make sure there isn't any harm in rooting for additional apps etc. like titanium if she is just going to want stock. Do I have it right?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
No, you don't have to change anything if you root it. Its all optional changes. You can just have root and use root apps, you don't have to change the system at all if you don't choose to.

But if she just wants stock... why are you rooting it in the first place?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ratlegion:
lol because she's going to want more reliable ways to back up app data among other things and, TO ME, Titanium is the ONLY way to go.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] consultant.ben:
Why change the stock ROM?

Because developers make some pretty great modifications to the UI, kernel, and such.

Make your phone reflect your personality, not the service provider's. (bleh)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mashkawizii:
After a while people might want to change, sometimes not, but if you already have it rooted it will be easier on you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] consultant.ben:
If all you want is a good backup, just make a nandroid and transfer a copy to your computer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ratlegion:
I know, but don't I have to root to do nandroid? That's one of the reasons I wanted to root to begin with.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] consultant.ben:
Yes.

At this point, the potential for disaster while rooting is minimal as long as one follows all steps correctly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Nope, no root required for nandroid.

Keep in mind though: a nandroid backup backs up your entire ROM as is. If you restore it you are back to where you were. TB backs up your apps, so you can restore them on the same ROM or on a different one.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ratlegion:
Okay, so when the Jelly Bean ota comes through for Sprint, will it be okay to take it with the custom recovery I installed or not?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
You will need to download it yourself (or move it from /cache to /sdcard) and then it will install with your custom recovery. It will not install over-the-air with a custom recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ratlegion:
I have a quasi related question. The Xoom got Jelly Bean recently, and even though I wiped my device and did a factory reset from recovery, all of my music I had put in the internal SD card was still there. Why wasn't all of the internal erased, and could I expect this when I install Jelly Bean on my wife's Nexus?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
If you wipe data with CWM, it will NOT touch /sdcard.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ratlegion:
Why?

And why is CWM the only custom recovery that doesn't?

Additionally, when ROM installations insist on CWM, why would they also have instructions to put the ROM zip on the external card if the internal is safe?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
What external card?? The GNex does not have one.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ratlegion:
But the Xoom does. Are you saying that CWM is mostly popular with internal storage only devices?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
That is not at all what I am saying.

This is the GNex forum. If you have questions about the Xoom, I suggest you ask in the Xoom forum.
