    Hi Bm,

    I am pretty sure Conqu is available in all international markets.
    If is not appearing, it is probably due to the device or OS version not being supported.
    What device do you have? What Android version is it running?
    We require Android 2.2 as the minimum.

    I have android version 2.2.2 running on a Dell Streak. Not generally aware of any problems and until now have always found any app I was after.

    We are actually excluding the Dell streak in particular (it is the only device we exclude) because it has very low resolution and we think that the tablet version would look pretty bad. The phone version would be better, but since the Dell Streak has a weird combination of large screen with low dpi, it is hard to make the market send the right version.
    In any case, I can give you a direct download for both tablets and phones, which you can download and then make the decision regarding which one looks best. You won't have the auto-updates though.

    I was trying to get the phone version - all the apps I use are phone ones. Im only after trying it at the moment, so if you can send a link or whatever please.

    You will have to change a preference in the Android Settings to allow for apps to be installed from sources other than the market. See this guide:

    In steps 4 and 5, click this link instead:

    Thanks. Downloaded fine. Oddly for a phone app it just seems to want to work in landscape. Anyway at least I can now have a play - good.

    It shouldn't do that, unless I pointed you to the wrong apk.
    Does it look like the attached image?

    No - as I said it only displays in landscape.

    But does it overall look like that? ie: Top header has two buttons and the word Conqu, clicking on an item brings you to a complete new screen, etc.
    If you look at the screenshots here you will see that the tablet version is quite different. https://market.android.com/details?id=air.com.conqu
    I am trying to determine if I gave you the tablet or the phone version.

    Got you - what I have is the picture you show in this thread but displayed in landscape. At least I can test the functionality which is the main thing at this time. thanks for your help

    OK, no problem. There must be something different with the Streak that is making it behave like that.

    I am having the same problem. However, in the past I was able to use the Conqu tablet edition on my Streak and it was fine, no issues at all. Could you post a link to that too. I think its better than the phone version. Thanks.
