(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hello NGU! Today I show will you how to downgrade Play Store 4.X.XX to 3.10.14 or Android Market 2.3.6.
With the downgrading you can use 'Freedom' without any problems. Smile
You can use this App too if you want back to the original Play Store and update to 4.X.XX

This works ONLY with rooted devices!

What do you need?
- A rooted device (I use my HTC Desire)
- A Brain
- The modded APK (You must login or register to view this content.)

Steps:
1. Download the APK

2. Install the APK on your device

3. Launch and choose the version which you want and press 'Install and reboot'
[ATTACH=CONFIG]25105[/ATTACH]

4. After your device rebooted you should have the Play Store/Android Market Version which you wanted.

That's all! Enjoy 'Freedom' or whatever you wanted with the downgrade. Smile

Realy? I tried all games and Play Store doesn't show as payment Freedom. I think a downgrade is the best 'deal' to get all the in-app Purchases.

Hes right about the freedom app but if you don't downgrade very little apps will let you buy stuff it will say something like payment failed and force close

Couldn't you just uninstall Google Play & download an older version.apk and install?

Nope, you can't delete a System without Root Access. There is the opportunity to delete the newest version but here is the problem when you go into the Play Store it updates the App. The APK in this thread stop the auto update and it's much faster than doing it on the computer. I had that problem and that's the reason why I post it here on NGU to share it with others. Smile
