How to Use Skype on a 3G Android

1. Turn on your Android device. Tap 'Marketplace' from the home screen or 'Applications' menu. Touch the magnifying glass icon at the top right of the Marketplace screen.

It should be at the top of the results and should have a blue 'S' icon next to it.

2. Touch 'Free' under 'Install.' Click 'OK.' A gray box will appear at the bottom of your screen, informing you that Skype is being downloaded. The application will automatically install after it downloads.

3. Launch Skype from the 'Notifications' menu once the application is installed. Press 'Continue.' Enter your Skype username and password and click 'Sign in.' If you do not have an account, click 'Create an account' at the bottom of the screen.
