1) go to android market on your computer.

2) click > My Market Account

3) click > Settings - You'll see your device (your phone) listed there. If not click > Don't see your device? > follow the instructions

4) Then , On your phone, > settings > accounts & sync > tick Auto-sync  , You'll see your google account below , if no, tab on the "Add Account" and add your google account there.

5) Once you've done the above, you'll be able to download apps from Market either using your phone or your computer.

last night i tried this, but it still can't download apps from market thru kies. I tot my kies is old version, so i updated to the new one and it still can't. sad.gif even they say i can update new firmware but still dun have anything. One thing, i notice i have "USB debugging" and "USB connected" on my phone. Do i need to "mount" my SD card and turn off the "USB Debugging" in order for it to download?? icon_question.gif

did you on your data or connect to wifi when downloading? you need to use either one, but data consumes your credit unless you've package data. so advisable to use wifi if you don't.

normal takes the most 10 mins. if one hour, then there's problem already. unplug and update again. if you know, use flashing better.

Yup, so far wifi's as stable as the official version, if not much better.

is it that we need to on data connection or wifi to download apps from market?

I tot once i connect to computer thru USB, then i can download thru USB to my phone?

I've tried the setting u mention like check the auto-sync option, and all..but it still have the same problem. Unable to install apps from market place thru kies with USB connected to the phone

You don't connect thru USB to your phone nor KIES to download apps from the market. Just use your phone to download from the market. Or you go to market on your computer to download (this needs your phone to either on data connection or wifi).
