Although my device is compatible with the app, I am having trouble downloading some apps?
Can anyone tell me the reason?

"Your device is not compatible with this item."

Your list is probably empty?

Experincing same problem, help.

Well other than adding a check to see if the returned list is empty, try changing your device UA in googleplay.py to something more recent. E.g.:

            headers = { "Accept-Language": self.lang,
                                    "Authorization": "GoogleLogin auth=%s" % self.authSubToken,
                                    "X-DFE-Enabled-Experiments": "cl:billing.select_add_instrument_by_default",

                                    "X-DFE-Device-Id": self.androidId,
                                    "X-DFE-Client-Id": "am-android-google",
                                    #"X-DFE-Logging-Id": self.loggingId2, # Deprecated?
                                    # "User-Agent": "Android-Finsky/4.4.3 (api=3,versionCode=8016014,sdk=22,device=GT-I9300,hardware=aries,product=GT-I9300)",

                                    # "User-Agent": "Android-Finsky/3.7.13 (api=3,versionCode=8013013,sdk=22,device=crespo,hardware=herring,product=soju)",

                                    "Host": "android.clients.google.com"}

@4knahs : Thanks. It actually worked.
