Android Market In China Is Running Again

front

Android Market is back in China! The online app store for Android smartphone can be accessible in China again. Google said that they have identified a technical issue during a software update and the problem has fixed it by now. Android Market was blocked across the major regions of China during the last few days, and lots of news and blog sites speculated on the motive. What appeared to be an intentional government blocking was merely a glitch related to software issue …

It seems that the software issue on Google’s end messed up the service for the Android users in China. But, since many Chinese are not using the official app store, this certainly didn’t affect millions of Android smartphone user in the country. Google and China has had a rather bad relationship to date, so long as the Google service now remains accessible in China, all the speculation can be put aside. Greatfirewallofchina.org and blockedinchina, two of the web sites service that test URLs to see if it is available in China, now indicate ‘market.android.com’ is accessible.

We hope Android Market can peacefully captured bushiness in China.

    Android Market is still banned in China. Recently I bought Samsung Galaxy R and I can’t use my Gmail as a premium account so as a result I can’t access to Android Market. I don’t understand Chinese so can’t use third party apps and don’t want to. Totally disappointed with this system!
