OK, managed to install it.. but cant get it to fake..
so on the 3rd tab I only have 1 option
which is
gsm.sim.operator.numeric = 310260

this all is missing..
gsm.operator.numeric = 310260
gsm.sim.operator.iso-country = us
gsm.operator.iso-country = us
gsm.sim.operator.alpha = <leave_this_blank>
gsm.operator.alpha= T-Mobile

Shahz, managed to get it working.... but I dont see much paid apps. I cant find Jewellust and RoboWars, and the prices are in pounds..

Guys i've same problem before.. try other method here:

1) find "Better Terminal Emulator" on market download and install. set root permission "always allowed"
2) Open then type : su
3) type in : setprop gsm.sim.operator.numeric 310260
4) type in : getprop gsm.sim.operator.numeric (to see ist set to 310260 or not.. if 310260 appear then u are done)
5) Go to setting -> application -> manage application -> find market -> clear cache -> force closed -> exit
6) Go to Home -> Menu -> market run it.. then u will see paid app.

Gud luck.. i did this way and its works!! thumbup.gif

Hi guys,

Thanks for the trick. I set it with adb shell.

Mine is a from under Chung Hwa (46692), I remember I used to see apps in market differently before I flashed it with Cyanogen. Anyway, want these paid apps because Tumblr (aTumble) is not free, still.. hate the idea that I have to get around the market lock with T-Mobile's code. :S

Here's a list of MCC/MNC numbers if others need it.

It worked. Thanks.

A small question. What happens if I did not restore settings after doing my shopping or in other words using some other gsm operator numeric?

Will there be problems?

ah this part made me jump abit, i bought and downloaded my first ever paid app - ExZeus (cool 3D robo fighting game btw biggrin.gif) yesterday evening, left it to download as it was quite huge the content file was 57MB? this morning i check and opened the game which was running fine, my battery actually went dead after downloading this game LOL almost made me late for work without the alarm clock.

then after awhile, i checked back Market, i cant see the paid apps anymore and i cant see ExZeus on the downloaded list.

i read your post, and figured i need to set the ME settings as US TMobile again, and i did it, Market has paid apps again, but ExZeus was asking to download the 57MB content again D:
i went to "restore settings" on ME back to default provider, launch ExZeus, and its working without asking me to download again, thank God! LOL!

Guys, checkout the game, its awesome 3D is something to look at. This is what Nexus One is capable of!

-----------------------------------------------


One question to shahz, how do we receive updates to the paid apps? do we have to use ME to check if there's any update?
I think apps like ExZeus would be abit different, as when i use ME, it ask me to download back the 57MB content when i launch the game when US Tmobile is loaded.

update: ok, i found out if you download a paid app using Market Enabler, you need to use back Market Enabler, then only the update will appear if there is one in the Android Market.

Once again, thanks for this great guide!

edit: i read the front page again, i see you mentioned DO NOT upgrade the app? do you mean Market Enabler upgrade or the Paid Apps that we downloaded?

update: i think it doesnt matter anymore, at least to a rooted Android 2.1 phone, can use the current latest ME. (not sure about unroot or Android version lower than 2.1.)

Your computer can't read it anyway..That file is the installer for the applications..You do not need root usually but it depends on the app you are trying to install..You can move it to your SD card and execute it through the file manager and install it..

apps are only considered "safe" if they are installed through the Market..If you manually install, first you need to enable the third-party apps option..Only then install it..There is no restriction on the installation, but you are responsible if you install it form the external source and not market..

Erm, I've rooted my milestone and installed the ME. I did see some paid apps. But the thing is, why I'm still having Top Free and Just In?
