[android-developers] In-app billing does not work - although everything has been checked

Hi!

I am including In-app billing in a new Android application I am
currently working on. The project is nearly finished and it should go
live as soon as in-app billing goes live.

In this project I want that users can donate to support the
application. However, I can not get In-app billing to work, although I
think I did everything right. Every time it is showing me that the
product is unavailable. Here is the logcat shortly after clicking the
button to purchase the item (product ID "donate_1") and after closing
the Android Market dialog:
03-26 12:07:42.440: DEBUG/More(12297): buying: donate_1
03-26 12:07:42.440: DEBUG/BillingService(12297): RequestPurchase
03-26 12:07:42.450: DEBUG/BillingService(12297): request id:
8723043450188864909
03-26 12:07:42.450: INFO/ActivityManager(96): Starting: Intent
{ act=android.intent.action.VIEW
cmp=com.android.vending/.billing.InAppBuyPageActivity (has extras) }
from pid -1
03-26 12:07:42.770: INFO/ActivityManager(96): Displayed
com.android.vending/.billing.InAppBuyPageActivity: +313ms
<device shows market dialog that product is unavailable.>
03-26 12:12:28.500: INFO/BillingService(12297): handleCommand()
action: com.android.vending.billing.RESPONSE_CODE
03-26 12:12:28.500: DEBUG/BillingService(12297): RequestPurchase:
RESULT_ITEM_UNAVAILABLE
03-26 12:12:28.500: DEBUG/More(12297): donate_1:
RESULT_ITEM_UNAVAILABLE
03-26 12:12:28.500: INFO/More(12297): purchase failed

This is what I checked:
1) I correctly signed and uploaded my APK file to the developer
console and saved it as draft, and I installed it on my real device.
2) I ensured that my test account, e.g. example_test@googlemail.com,
is listed as test account (the developer account is a different one,
let's say example_dev@googlemail.com) and is the primary account on my
device.
3) The product "donate_1" (unmanaged because multiple donations should
be possible) is listed as "published" and has a price of 0.79 €.
4) All static responses triggered by "android.test.purchased" etc.
have been tested and work.
5) Of course the Android Market is checked to have the latest version
(2.3.4).

So I believe I checked all points from
http://developer.android.com/guide/market/billing/billing_testing.html#billing-testing-real
- and I have no idea why it still does not work. Maybe a bug? It
wouldn't be the first time that <...>@googlemail.com addresses make
problems, but <...>@gmail.com do not. But that is just my guess.

Thanks in advance & regards
