    Phone has all marks on back and didn't allow me to set up Gmail. Touch sceen won't let me select next button. Want to send back but I'm disabled and have noone to take it post office. Asked back market if can arrange collection from address. They should do this as I've been sent a phone that doesn't work as promised but we shall see what they say No reply yet.
