Feel free to ask if you have any question on using G5. Thanks.

A1. The phone has the potential to support Android 2.2 (Froyo) but until now there is no updates whether Froyo is really coming to G5 or not.

A2. G5 supports most of the apps in the market, except for those stated require Froyo.

Q3. Will all the games available in the market supported in G5?
A3. No, not every games in the market are supported and is believed due to the limited amount of RAM and screen resolution.

Q4. Internal memory of G5 is limited, can I move or even install apps into my micro SD card?
A4. No. With Android 2.1, it is impossible. Have to wait for Froyo to make this happen.

Q5. Why some of elements in the webpages are not viewable?
A5. Smart phone is not a PC, there are sure some limitations in viewing some webpages. Besides, Android 2.1 cannot support Flash elements.

Q6. How can I use GPS in G5?
A6. GPS is just a system, you need to install GPS app like Papago in order to use GPS navigation.

Q7. I had already installed GPS app, but why is it not working as expected?
A7. Don't compare with GPS device however GPS in G5 is really working. It takes time to search/lock the satellite. Try again and again patiently.

A8. Refer to 1st post on how to setup Internet (3G mobile connection) and MMS. To receive MMS, you have to turn on your mobile connection.

Q9. How long can G5 battery life stand for if it is fully charged?
A9. It depends on how you use it. Frequent use in surfing and gaming will consume more battery life time. Turn off mobile connection if not using.

Q10. What is the market price for G5?
A10. You can refer to Moon0126 or her website www.1phone.com. Recommended seller with postage service.
