FAQ (Frequently-Asked Questions)

Q. Why charged twice from Google?
A. While it may appear that you've been charged twice for an order, the
pending item you noticed on your bank statement is actually an
authorization. Authorizations are the initial communication between
Google’s billing system and the bank's billing system. While you may
see multiple pending listings in your account, only one charge will be
deducted after the authorization is completed. When this final
deduction occurs, the charge will be posted to your account as
successful. Google will not bill an account until they receive an
approved authorization from the bank.
Q. Trouble downloading with “Download unsuccessful” message

A. If you receive a "Download unsuccessful" message when attempting to
download an app, try the following troubleshooting steps to resolve
the issue:
• For paid applications, confirm your credit card information is up
to date by signing in to your Google Checkout account.
• Clear your Market cache (visit Settings > Applications > Clear
cache).
• Restart your phone, then try downloading the app again.
• Wait 10 minutes, and try your download again.
• Confirm there is connectivity to either a wireless or cellular
network on your device, and contact your mobile service
provider if you aren't connected.
• Ensure there’s enough space on your phone or tablet for the app
to install.
• If none of the above steps work, try remounting your SD card.
Visit Menu > Settings > Storage > Unmount SD card; then
remount the SD card from the same menu by selecting
Remount SD card, or restart the device if the remount option
isn’t available.

Q. Trouble downloading with “Starting download” message
A. If your application has stalled at "Starting download", please use the
following troubleshooting steps to help complete your download:
• For paid applications, confirm your credit card information is up
to date by signing in to your Google Checkout account.
• Cancel and restart the download.
• Restart your phone, then try downloading the app again.
• Confirm there is connectivity to either wireless or cellular
networks on your device, and contact your mobile service
provider if you aren't connected.
• Try your download(s) using both wireless and cellular network
connections, and ensure firewalls aren’t blocking access to ports
required for Android Market (TCP and UDP 5228).
• Make sure your device is signed into Google Talk by following
these steps:
1. Go to your phone’s app launcher, and press the Talk app.
2. If you’re already signed into Talk, press Menu, and then
touch Sign out.
3. Launch Talk again to sign in.
Q. Why you need the permission for network communication?
A. We provide a webview browsing feature to open or download PDF files
from websites / FTP sites inside the app. A convenient feature to get
the PDF files to My Docs folder.
Q. Why you need the permission for phone state and identity?
A. We do not collect or store any personal information from device. This
permission is needed for protecting and checking the PDF files for
encryption/decryption. We also use this feature to stop playing Text-
to-speech, audio and video when there is an incoming call.

Q. Having problem with font spacing and other font issues
