Yupe i'm a proud owner of G5. After much reading with the help of Mr Google, i think i solved the problem. It is well known problem with old gmail account. When i setup new gmail account it work flawlessly! smile.gif

So anybody who cannot download anything from marketplace (the download failed to initiate) please check your gmail account, like my account which are as old as the gmail itself. Try create a new gmail account and used that acount for your G5.

Thanks smile.gif

Indeed, some black berry like the curve has suckier screen resolution than G5. 65k colour only. The only fun thing about blackberry and iphone is the pink chat, i was searching for the app but couldnt find it.

smile.gif Hey bro, dont say sorry..............i just to hope solve your problem
here for your reference, might can help

Do remember, G5's GPS unable lock satellite in indoor, pls test it outdoor

1.Go to "Setting" - Location & Security - Use Wireless Networks(always keep tick)
2.Go to "Setting" - Location & Security - Use GPS Satellite (always keep tick)
3.Go to Android market download and install the apps "GPS Booster"
4.Restart phone
5.Go to outdoor (without tall building surrounding within 100m)
6.Open Papago

1st 1-3 times might need longer locking time, later will get better and better

Optional : You can download "GPS Test" at Android market to view the satellite connection status

the easiest way is open any sms from Messaging, then there will be a popup for you to choose Messaging or Handcent, underneath there is a checkbox to use as default... so make sure that checkbox is checked when you select Handcent. Then, handcent will set as default.

after you have set handcent as default, you have to disable notification from Messaging Settings, else you'll receive notification from both of the apps.

Cannot seems to find this menu "disable notification from Messaging Settings"? Under Applications?

Hi there.

Any of you experience the below problem?

G5 built in e-mail (not Gmail) could not fetch attachment from other e-mail senders unless they are using plain text (not HTML or Rich Text) or else the attachment that I received was the Android with the description of winmail.dat and when i clicked open and save the attachment just could not be fetched.

But can the PC read the internal memory & SD card contents without any software install? I think that's his question.
