Re: [android-developers] Re: LVL returns LICENSED with anonymous accounts...

It's a little hard to figure out what the initial report is describing here, but I suspect it's this:

The test response settings in the Market publisher console only affect users who are (a) the developer who owns the publisher account, or (b) listed as test accounts.

Normal users are unaffected by the "test response" setting. This is so that you can test your account without disturbing users who have already purchased your application.

So, if your "dummy" account purchased the application, they should always be getting LICENSED -- because they purchased the application. (Likewise, if you sideload an application onto phone that's using a dummy account that hasn't ever purchased the application, they'll get NOT_LICENSED.)

There's also one exception to this: free apps. While we won't allow uploading a free APK that uses the CHECK_LICENSE permission to the Market publisher console, *requests* for these applications currently will always return LICENSED. However, since (again) you can't upload these APKs, this isn't something that should happen often.

I'm getting the same problem. It works on two phones (Nexus One and
HTC Hero). Fails on a HTC Legend. Not sure whether that's important or
not!

I don't understand how it can say it's licensed.
