I only see free apps in the Marked

[koldtoft]

This was a problem on my Hero (Android 1.6) and now on my desire (Android 2.1)

I live in Denmark, and I can not buy applications from the marked (or even see them). I have TDC (the biggest Danish ISP and mobile / phone carrier)

Do anyone have any information on how to work around this issue? or a timeline for when this issue is fixed?

There are many great paied apps, and I cant have em

even when you go to the 'paid' tab?

I don't see that tab. I did in the beginning on my hero, but it was removed in an update. When i did see it, it said no apps found when i clicked it.

I see 4 tabs (when pushing the menu button)
Seach
Download
Help
Start (if I am not on the start page allready)

If i search for a paid app that I know should be there, I find nothing. When I download a free version of an app that have a paid version, and I click update to paid version (in the free versino) i go to a marketplace page that say no application found.

Denmark doesn't have access to paid apps, does it?

That was my natural assumption as well.

I am looking for official information on this, or a working workaround / hack.

Once it's been rooted, you can use Market Enabler on it to see all free and paid apps.

Root and install Market enabler. That's about all you can do right now.

For now, there are alternative market places such as SlideME | Android Community and Application Marketplace
