    Yes, you need to set up a Gmail on the phone.

    For future reference... The menu key is the answer to everything.

    Yes. You have to have a gmail account for apps. That's how the play store associates your purchases.

    Also, download Lookout for virus protection on your phone. It'll backup information for you as well in case something happens to your phone.

    My Andriod advice is to give it to a teenager and tell them to fix it to do what you want it to do. Then offer to feed them for their time.

    My kids finally just took it from me after watching me fumble around with it, and fixed it.

    Good luck with it. I like my android a lot!

    If the menu button doesn't give you what you need you're screwed thou. It took me forever to figure out how to download music to my phone and actually use it. Sad, but true.
