Overview:
Market Unlocker lets you access paid or restricted apps in Android Market 2.x and 3.x and Amazon Appstore in one click. It’s safe, stable, simple and free.
For some apps are just enabled for some specific countries and not available to the other countries,so it is very difficult to download many high quality software. Market Unlocker lets you access paid apps from countries where paid apps are not yet available.
Require:
***Get Root permission
***Have installed Android market
***Have installed Amazon appstore (optional)
Features:
***Change provider in one click
***Change provider automatically on boot or switch to flightmode
***Proxy support for market 3.x. It support HTTP, Socks4, Socks5 proxy and user authentication. Socks 4/5 proxy is highly recommended.
***Support Amazon Appstore outside USA.
***Support fetch and configure proxy automatically (pro version only)
Basic Usage:
Click any item in “Market” tab to enable Unocket. And you can switch to Home and Proxy table for more optional functions.
It is not permanent, will be original after reboot or flight mode! So if you want to back to default market,just reboot or reset flight mode, but you can check “Auto Unlock” to fake it automatically.
To work with market 2.x,
select market and check “Market Unlocker” to enable function.
To work with new market 3.x,
1. Configure a USA proxy server or click fetech proxy for pro version.
2. Enable Proxy
3. Choose provider (by default verizon is selected)
4. Check “Market Unlocker” to enable function.
Open Android Market again, paid apps now are back to you!
+++++ New update since version 3.0.8 +++++
Amazon Appstore is supported.
Basically Amazon appstore does not allow users to buy paid apps from outside USA, even if users have been registered use US credit card and US address.
Market Unlocker can also set a USA proxy for Amazon appstore to help you buy daily free apps as well as paid apps.
To achieve this:
First install Appstore app, otherwise the function checkbox will not be visible.
1. Go to Proxy tab
2. Configure Proxy Type, Proxy Host, Proxy Port. Please make sure you’re using an effect USA proxy server first.
3. Check “Involve Amazon Appstore” button
4. Enable “Enable Proxy” to “ON”
Open Appstore again, it should now work for you.
Q&A:
Q:where I can find free USA proxies? and why don’t you provide proxies in this app?
A:search google. Please upgrade to pro version which support automtic configuration.
Q:why I need use an USA proxy?
A:market 3.x is checking your ip address country. fake provider does not work any more. we need make it looks like a us user as well(from usa).
Q:why I can not connect to Market after enable proxy?
A:proxy server is broken or not supporting your request. try configure/fetch another proxy and re-enable proxy&unlocker, or disable proxy for free apps installation.
Q:why I enabled proxy, but still no paid apps visible to me?
A:you might have used a non-us proxy.
Q:How can I get a working US Amazon account?
A:Get a US billing adress and creditcard. If you don’t have that you should generate the info from a site like this: Fake Name Generator(http://www.fakenamegenerator.com/
). Keep in mind though that you won’t be able to buy anything with it, but you can download the free apps of the day.
Q:Why I cannot see some Apps even if everything looks working fine?
A:Go to Android Market Setting, change content filter in market to unlimited, then go back to show all and market refresh in US mode. (Thanks Leonardo Gandini for the suggestion)
