Why am I being told your device isn't compatible with this version?

[AC Question]

your device isn't compatible with this version

Ok so I have a cheap Pixi 3.5
annoyingly the BT Wifi app ( essential )
doesn't work on this phone:

I have taken the following steps:

Rooted my mobile
installed market helper
tricked phone into thinking its a sumsung s5
still can't install Bt-Wifi

what next ?

BT, British Telecom? You need an app to use the WiFi they provide you at your home? There must be some feature that the app is looking for that your device dowsn't support.

Re: your device isn't compatible with this version

I looked at a brief review of the Pixi 3.5 spec. Some are running Firefox OS, or Windows instead of Android.

They also don't support 4G, afaik.

Either way, looking at the app page on the Play Store, there's no indication why, though it may need LTE radios, I don't know.

Best thing always is contact the developer by email found at the bottom of the Play Store page.

Or of course regular customer support for your account.

Sorry can't be of more help.

at home I'm ok can just login to my broadband wifi
its when I'm out and about I need BT wifi
its an app that picks up all the BT-openzones
so you're using wifi not data

Re: your device isn't compatible with this version

both BT wfi and the developer are ringing their hands on this one
I've spoken to them both

so i am trying a work around

hoping to catch someone who has used market helper APP

lots on youtube but they all start with a samsung phone
which I haven't got .

quite pleased my phone now is a samsung S5 ( NOT )
got that far , and hoped there'd be no longer an issue

Yes you are a genius! I wouldn't have attempted that.
Rubbish that BT are ringing their hands. I absolutely detest them as a company. Good luck.

(British Telecom were the only landline provider in the UK, own half the commercial property in the country, and couldn't give a hoot if they made a mistake that left you without a line. Ahhh! feel better now. ...)
