770161 - "This app is incompatible with your HTC Desire" But it's on the list of supported phones.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 757920

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[gopher1369]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:14.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/14.0
Build ID: 20120628060610

Steps to reproduce:

Tried to install Firefox 14 for Android on a friends HTC Desire from both the Play store on the phone and via play.google.com


Actual results:

"This app is incompatible with your Vodafone HTC HTC Desire.	
Vodafone HTC HTC Desire
This item is not compatible with your device"

As a test I uninstalled Firefox 14 from my own Desire and tried to reinstall it and same error message on my phone. 


Expected results:

Phone is on the list of compatible models, so app should have been available to install.

I was able to reinstall the app on my phone only by going into the "My Apps" section on the Play store and reinstalling it from my "all apps" list. 

We are both running Cyanogen 7.2 (Gingerbread).
