Change Default Country In Google Apps

Roshan Karki Anonymous
Once your default country is selected in your Google Apps account you cannot change it. Sometime it becomes necessary to change the default country for eg: when you change your country.

To force the change follow the steps below:
  1. Login to your Google Apps as an administrator.
  2. In your dashboard you'll see "Try Google Apps for Business Free".
  3. Click that link.
  4. After that you'll get option to change the country as show in the figure below.
  5. Select your desire country and click 'Begin Trial'. Don't worry, we don't have to pay any buck.
  6. After this you'll reach to Google Checkout Page. At this moment close your browser. Yes close it.
Verify if your change has been saved by going to Domain Setting -- Account Information -- Default Country

    Does that still work? I can't seem to find the "Try Google Apps for Business Free" link.
    Tried upgrading through the control panel, but still can't find YouTube in services!

    Thanks.

    You mean you upgraded and changed the default country? If so Youtube will be in service list. Try looking at the second group of service. Its almost at the bottom.

    It worked like a miracle. Thanks a lot for the great workaround.

    I'm so sorry that Google didn't implement such a basic feature. And more sorry that it can be overcome by using the trick.

    Huh??!! Am I missing something here?? How do you get to Google Apps? There is no section called Google apps. There is the new Google Marketplace called Google Play. There is no area either called Google Administrator. If you google Google Apps for Business Free", you get a website where u can dowload the trial but it doesnt link to your profile, it is a separate email address that you use only for Google business. My guess is that something has changed in the last 6 months that people here were able to change their country and now that's no longer available? Please help if this is not the case. I need to change my country in the Google Play store.

    I think that Google realized about this trick and now they just removed that option to make it impossible for the people to change country.

Increase Free Space On HTC Desire Android Phones

Roshan Karki Anonymous
Are you running out of free space on phones like HTC Desire and variants? It only has about 150MB of free space and after official Gingerbread 2.3.3 update the free space has decreased. Its really frustrating seeing all those apps with 20MB+ size eating up valuable space on Android phones. Even with App2SD I had very very difficult time maintaining free space. Installing apps like Facebook, Google Plus, Google Reader would eat up all the space. Today I used link2sd to increase free space on my Android phone and now I've more than 1GB of free space for installing apps. I've been installed so so many apps now. link2sd can move your application apk, dex and lib files to second partition of your SD card and creates a symlink where necessary. Even when you mount your SD card in computer the apps in SD card will work as only the first partition will be mounted in computer. Requirements : Root MicroSD card Clockworkmod recovery to partitoin the SD ca...
