Theres no menu like the nokias have to see if its ever been serviced but theres a few things i do when looking at pocket pc's although i've never purchased a used one because i haven't found one's which look that sound.

First thing i would do is look at its physical state. Scratches etc. which will show if it's been dropped or handled roughly.

Second i'd take off the batter cover and look at the screws to show if they've every been removed. You can tell this by either seeing small scratches on them. Also the I-Mate Jasjam screws are black so you can tell easily if a screws been in them.

Then i'd remove the battery and the sim card(if inserted) and see if theres a little felt/paper square. This should be white and changes color (to purple i believe) if it ever got wet or moist. Inspect the little bit of the circuit board thats visible under where the sim would go for imperfections.

Now I'd go back to physicl aspects. Look at the screen, if it has a screen protector thats marked up, remove it and inspect the LCD and see if itself has scratches, if there are scratches and they are small i'd suggest the pocketpctechs screen protector which covers up blemishes.

Press the bottons on the front and sides and see if they feel well (are they hard to press, do they got stuck etc.) Slide the device open a couple of times and see if its locks into place or not and if its rough/smooth to open/close.

When its open i'd go and press each button on the keyboard and see if any of them stick and look for things as you would with the other buttons.

Then turn on the device and test all the buttons, and the keyboard on a new notepad. See if the screen is aligned by opening a new note and draw a line from one corner to the opposite corner, make sure the line is under the pen. Align the screen and keep in mind when you did it and cross your fingers and hope it stays aligned. If it does have the SA issue, go to the wiki for a fix.

I guess thats all i can think of right now... hope it helps you in deciding whether you want to keep the device or not. Oh yah, also check if the memory slot works and inspect the Mini-Usb port, and the stylus silo (haven't heard of it becoming loose on the hermes yet)

Good luck and hopefully you got no problems with it and its a sound device. Enjoy it and welcome to the Xda-Devs!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MonkeyK:
Thanks fone_fanatic! Looks like some great advice that will help me make a checklist.

Having come from a Palm T3 + a Sony Ericsson T637, I'm long overdue for an upgrade and really excited about converging devices with the 8525.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] insanenyc:
dont forget to make a phone call bring your sim, sometimes people forget the obvious
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MonkeyK:
WooHoo!

It tests out great. There were only two problems

1)a slight creaking in the top left corner - really more an annoyance than anything else

2)The phone was sold as unlocked but prompted me for the unlock code which the prevous owner did not know. This problem was easily overcome with the unlock solution posted on the Wiki.

Thanks for the testing tips as they help me feel far more secure in my purchase!

Now I just need to get used to the PocketPC OS (seems a little complicated coming from PalmOS). After I get the feel of the OS figured out, I will start trying to write some apps.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
Hi creaking top left corner is actually fairly normal. The screw will be tight but it's not in the corner (see battery compartment). The screw passess through camera board and holds it slightly proud. If it really bugs you, you can remove back (a warranty voiding activity) a place a piece of papervas padding to take up slack - otherwise not a big issue.

Glad it's working fine:)

The voyage of discovery and frustration begins - enjoy

Hey guys, I own a non-NFC version with stock 4.1 JB and I'd like to update to 4.2.2 but since there's no update for Egypt I'd like to add arabic patch to any 4.2.2 stock rom but I don't know where to start, I've googled this matter and found out Arabic patch but for ginger bread roms and I don't think the patch is compitable with JB roms.

Any guides or tutorials would be helpfull

The attached screenshot is from my I9105P running firmware XXUBNB1 (Germany). I'm no language expert, but I think the 3rd last could very well be arabic. I don't think there's any need for a patch for arabic language support in 4.2.2.

I found 4.2.2 a nice improvement over 4.1.2.

Okay so I bought an S3 used in good condition, everything worked except the cameras, water tab RED. I got it home pulled it apart, cleaned the motherboard with isophoric alcohol to clean any corrosion from the water damage (no damage I can see, runs flawlessly), reinstalled original front and rear cameras no luck camera still failed. Then I replaced both front and rear camera out of another i747 I had both cameras worked in that unit but no luck in the unit Im trying to repair. Although later in snapchat I realized the front camera did work. I also tried to update the camera firmware through dail pad on stock 4.1.2 rom but it always crashes before I get to the menu to check firmware and update if available. I tried deleting cache and data on both gallery and camera app, removed all other applications relating to camera or torch (flashlight) also turned off google location, have tried other roms of course after clearing dalvik, cache partition and factory reset. I also have tried other 3rd party camera apps, Ive also tried removing sd card and sim card and battery pull. I'm stumped honestly never had such an issue before, any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Also phone is not under warranty.

Interesting ROM!;)

I have some questions:

I'm on a LPX13D based ROM.

Sooo, is it enough to do a dirty flash if I want to install your ROM over that?

And if I want to try the Nexus 6 apps, I should download the n6_app_privapp_dump.7z file?

Am I right?

And I see your ROM has the latest Franco kernel! It's amazing!!:)

Good luck for this ROM!;)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daniel84cs:
- You can easily do a dirty flash from your stock LPX13D, the script automatically performs a wipe cache and Dalvik.

- Many of the gapps have already been updated in material version on playstore , only a few will need to flash it from recovery or copy it to the system folder app. By tomorrow add convenient zip for Nexus 6 gapps not in playstore . The discussion is under construction I intend to do a good job and provide adequate support for alla users.

Question to xTrasmooth 2.4

since this is a fully new rom and the size is slightly bigger,

so we do not need to flash Delta pack and it is included in 2.4 ROM,

Full wipe

flash 2.4

flash supersu

DSP Manager

First of all, thanks for this awesome ROM. One of the best ROMs ever used.

But since XTraSmooth 2.3.2 I've a weird problem with DSP Manager. While listening to Google Play Music via headphones, after every track change, the volume turnes insanely loud. I've to turn down the volume manually, then it works for the rest of the song.

This happens on every version sind 2.3.2. I tried dirty flash, full wipe every version. Step by step, or the 2.4.1 full image but 2.3.1 is the newest version I can use without this problem.:crying:

Any ideas? FKU Beta is installed, but no volume boost is activated.:eek:

Mobile data doesn't work

Hello,

I flashed xTraSmooth 2.4.1 (and today 2.4.2) and almost everything is working flawlessly.

The one problem I have is that mobile data (no matter if I set it to LTE, 3G or 2G) doesn't work. The signal icon always has an ! when WLAN is disabled and mobile data enabled.

In Settings →About Phone → Status it just says "Cellular network type: HSPA" and "Cellular network type: Disconnected" at all times.

Has anybody an idea how to fix this?
