Before You Begin:

I. Download Files:

  1. You need to download “MarketEnabler.apk” for the application itself, you can find it in Android Market or in external links.

II. Install the Market Enabler Application:

    2. Using any file manager, locate the MarketEnabler.apk file you downloaded and install the application.
    3. Download and install it directly from Android Market on your device.

III. Use it:

  1. Access the application’s Country List and tap in whatever Market Country you want.
