Where did you buy it from? ? Bell or Rogers ? ?

Have you contacted them? To verify your account is recognized.

@Tropical_Willie Yes I went in person. In a shopping mall kiosk. The phone feature works fine… I had to make a new Gmail account… but I still can’t download apps.

They should have verified your g-mail account before you left the kiosk. I just got a new smartphone, that was checked and they also called to one of phones at their desk.

Until it accepts your Gmail account, you cannot get into the market to get apps.

However, that should’ve been set up before you left the store/kiosk. It takes about 30 seconds to enter your email and password, and most places are good about walking newbies through setting up their first Android.

Update: gave the phone away last week because it had a cracked screen. New phone doesn’t have enough rom to run anything larger than the Amazon app. Will try to put apps on my desktop. Will save up for a better phone. What phone do you suggest?

^^ Not all cellphone apps can be put on desktop PC. ^^

@Tropical_Willie Thanks for the heads-up. What apps do you recommend for my computer? My computer is an Intel core i5, 1TB hard drive, 16GB ram, Windows 10.Question redirected to here
