Root (Guide)Trick Your Phone- Unlock all apps in market!

So I wanted to play games like the new Most Wanted, and Modern Combat 3. So I changed some things in my build.prop and made my phone think that it is the Samsung Galaxy Nexus S and all the apps are unlocked. So now I have both the games purchased, installed and play them all the time they work just fine. This is what you change:

Code:
ro.product.model=Nexus S
ro.product.brand=Google
ro.product.manufacturer=Samsung
ro.product.device=Nexus S

Ghostbusters: Paranormal Blast is not supported...

as well as many other apps...


the Nexus S being a "fully unlocked market phone" is not true
 
I can confirm this work but make sure u make a copy of ur original build prop : p

Edit yall should check your camcorder and video player after doing this ot messes it up but all you gotta do is go bk in and put bk the original build prop and theyll. Work agen.
 
works like a charm :-) thanx

now on to download Horn (infinity blade clone)-1,7GB ouch

probably wont work as is optimized for tegra devices, i had galaxy s2, it allowed me to download it but didnt run...
 
Im glad to here that everything works, all I wanted was Modern Combat 3 and the new MostWanted!!! And it worked, and I guess you can play around with it and make it think that it is the nexus 7 etc...
 
yeah one feature of this that would be great would being able to share apps

Idk but I did a unbrick twice already before even changing the build properties because my play store would not dl over 4g it just randomly stopped working twice. Might be the phone??
 
I have been looking for a way to get microsoft smart glass to work on my device, but it doesn't.

I followed the instructions, and I have my model number saying "Nexus S" in the phone information. If I change it to a phone that supports google smartglass I should be able to download it, and trick it.

there's an unlocked APK over on XDa somewhere...they stripped the device requirements and it works awesomely with our phone

I downloaded it an installed it...it comes up as malware on numerous Anti Viruses so I deleted it...i suggest you do the same
 
Ghostbusters works great just can't get it from the market

precisely why i posted what i posted...

it does not work with this mod...

this "mod" does not fully unlock the market...


as far as i am aware there is no way to completely unlock the market....because there are apps that will only work with 2.2 and below devices that will not show up if you have a new device....and vice versa...
