Changing google username to use android market and calendar

117len · June 13th, 2009, 07:56 AM

I'm trying to log into the android market on my phone, but it tells me to type in my password for an account of the previous owner. I tried looking in the settings to change the google username, but I couldn't find anything. Now it doesn't even show me that screen, its just blank, as is the calendar app. Email and the brower work though.

You dont need to login to Market to use the app ...
Just open the Apps tray and select the market app...

You apps (if any are PAID) are linked to your GMail account when you register the phone on startup(out ot the box -- powerOn)
