Is there any way at all where you can find in which country the phone is currently in, let's say if I travel to Spain can I in code know this information somehow. Using GPS is not good for me, but I know the phone recognizes where it is, but I don't know if I can access that info in code...

Anyone know how to check the user's country? I'm looking for a way that's faster than using GPS and reverse geocoding. (I need the country where the phone is registered, not their current location, in any case.) Is there any constant in the settings?

I'm traveling to Europe next week and would like to only take my android phone around instead of a netbook and was wondering if it's possible to use it without the sim card or how to disable everything so I'm not charged?

Well im looking to get an android device soon, and after some searching around i came across this link:
Supported locations for distributing applications - Android Market Help
which doesnt list my country (cyprus). I basically cant download free or paid apps from the market
So is my only choice to download the .apk file from the net and put it on my SD card? Is there any other way? Also will the market app "recognize" which apps i have installed?
I am planning to release my app (which i have been pllanning to do so for quite a few time now, waiting for the expansion of google checkout to happen).I am from India and I am planning to release the application using my friends UK Bank account.Is this advisable? Are there any things that I should take care of?Also is there any chance of google expanding the google checkout or in introducing new payout options like paypal?I have been waiting for the support for quite sometime and I am very much depressed on the issue that google is still not expanding the services, ive sent numerous mails to them asking for atleast the estimated release date but in vain.
Its been nearly an yeaar since android is relmore than an year since android phones have been released and still there is such slow progress. iPhones allows developers from most of the countries to publish their apps and customers from any country can buy the same, i think they can even do it through itunes.I think this is going to hurt the progress and development of android big time. If apple can do it why not google? I have been expecting some response from google atleast on the estimated date, so that we can plan accordingly.
In my application findlocation options is there.can u please help me how to find out the corresponding map by providing the country,city,street or pincode.

What is required by his side ? A bank account or a credit card ? How the money are transferred to him ? What exactly Google checks to verify if the developer is in one of the supported countries ?
I have an HTC Desire HD on Orange UK. In the market I have only ever seen apps & books. I have never seen movies or music listed. I have, until now, assumed that these were probably only available in certain countries because of licensing agreements.
I was discussing the rebranding to Google Play with a colleague, only to find out that they have, and have done for a while, a section in their Market /Play Store for movies. They have an HTC Desire S on T Mobile UK.
Why would I not have movies available via my market? I'm guessing that it wouldn't be handset compatibility, so would it be that Orange are blocking this for some reason? Who else, in the UK, has the movies option, and who doesn't? What is the common ground between each group?
They do not have music as a Market section, so I guess that I was right about this, and it is not available to the UK at all?
I have my app in the market which is mainly for US based people as I dont have the database that is required for any other country.
So I am wondering if it is possible to restrict the app to be visible to and downloaded by only US based users.
I have fairly large map overlay that I am displaying over the google maps data but would still like to see the country/state/province lines through my overlay (so the lines would essentially be on top of my overlay).
As I understand, these lines are simply polygons drawn over the maps. Is there any way to access these? If so, how do I get them to show up through my overlay images?
I recently bought a galaxy s4 , but the play store is so boring wth all the weird apps judging that my location is in the middle east. i experienced the same problem when i bought the lumia 920 and the solution was simply changing my location to the US to get access to all the goodies in the play store is there a way of changing my location on the galaxy s4 so that i can enjoy my play store?

I just got a Galaxy S3 yesterday and the first time I turned it on I used my work wifi connection. This operates via a proxy which makes any website think I'm in another country (varies from country to country depending which server has the least load).
Unfortunately, now whenever I do a Google search it defaults to google.de. I only connected to the work wifi when I turned it on, since then I've been acessing at home or using my 3G connection. I live in England so this is very annoying.
Is there any way I can stop Google going to the German site? I tried clearing everything in the browser but this didn't work.
Bit of further info: If I go to Settings > Google > Search, there is a tick-box that says "Search on google.com" and underneath that it says "Using www.google.com instead of your local domain (www.google.de)".
There has to be a way of changing that setting, surely!

The country in my Google Account still shows India and so does my address in Google Wallet (I had deleted the US addresses that I had obtained from a package forwarding service).
