In case anyone is interested, I have published my app and it now
reports NOT_LICENSED properly. Still, it seems like all someone has
to do to steal the app is to get the .apk file, change the Package
name, and upload it to Google and not publish. At that point, anyone

Actually, that thought has occurred to me (I have already read that
thread), but really, how am I supposed to be able to test my app
before I publish it if that is the case?

I have been able to reproduce this problem on my development phone.
If I reset my phone so that there are no accounts at all, then I
receive a 'deny' response. If I log into my phone with my developer
id, then I can control the response via the Google Developer Console.
However, if I reset my
You can't, basically. All you can do is publish and hope their system
works. My answer to this problem was to not use the response extras
and to create a system that can deal with an incorrect response here
and there.

I also think there is a problem.
I released my app with LVL. I haven't gotten any reports of false
negatives, but, contrary to my expectation, I still haven't had a
pirate later repurchase my app. I define a pirate as somebody who
requests a refund within 20 minutes of purchase. That's about

Just curious - is this really a fair definition of a pirate?
Do you have stats or other evidence to indicate these people have pirated

I recently did my own LVL implementation and I can tell you that
tracing these issues down is a real pain. First you need to put loads
of logging into the LVL code to find out what the actual response is,
otherwise you have no visibility, then you have to put logging into
all the code between the

'licensed'. This is simply not correct. This phone does NOT have a
