Hi ALL,
A warning .Please read this or be stung! From my bitter experience, DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT BUYING A GALAXY ACE!!!
I have now spent 2 weeks trying to get he thing to work, with the main instruction manual and ploughing through these forums [and they confirm my findings].
The device is a fraud - it does NOT work as described or advertised.
Yes, the phone works, and after trouble some pictures and music can be loaded, and radio works.
As for obtaining any new apps, IMPOSSIBLE. Neither Samsung nor android market will recognise phone. It is as if the phone is not suitable for android,
It will NOT link through a PC as described in manual, either as the 'mass storage' connection. [Instruction book shows keying that do not even exist!] and KIES is as bad- when it even connects.
Without apps it has no book reader or even basic notepad etc - useless.
I have to work on the phone through my PC as bad phone signal here. It is supposed to link through a PC. Rubbish!
If a phone will not connect to it's own maker's website, or the google android market specifically for it. It is a fraud. I note neither google, nor Samsung offer any assistance AT ALL.
Only this forum has been any help, and answers there have been variable, since what works for one person's phone seemingly does not for others!
IF ANYONE out there DOES know how to link to download apps via PC reliably I'd be VERY pleased to hear from them- if they can tell me, and others in non jargon language!
Be warned and avoid!
Robin
