How to Access Certain Google Play Services from Outside the USA

As you probably know that Google provides various services to its Android Phone users over at Google Play Store. Some of these services are available in select countries only, e.g., USA and are not available in other countries. To provide the users a way to access such services from outside the USA, an XDA Forum member has come up with a solution. Following guide shows his way to access these services from outside the USA.

I. Before You Begin:

1. You must have rooted your smartphone before doing this procedure. Please head to our Android How Tos section to find the rooting procedure for your smartphone.

II. Downloading Required Files:

1. Download the Google Play Store from here. (Download link is given in the first post)

2. Download the Market Enabler App from here.

3. Download the DroidVPN App from here. (Google Play Link)
