Lol, right?
[General Topics] FunnierThanVos:
I would consider the Teclast X98 Pro, here's a video review on it:

Other options, a little smaller at 8", include the Chuwi Hi8.

Yes I know, they're Chinese makes but they're dual boot Android & Windows 8.1/10 which you won't find in American and large foreign tablet manufacturing due to licensing issues.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ErkaustNoAme:
Hello, thanks for clicking. After a bit of trouble (thought the rom was 4.4.2, flashed wrong gapps multiple times), I was able to install a nightly installation of Liquidsmooth for the Samsung Galaxy SIII (AT&T), however the phone is unable to detect the SIM card, telling me there is no SIM card, and emergency calls only. I have tried removing the card and putting it back in a few times, and have tried rebooting, as well as messing with the settings, and "Googling" fifteen times in desperation. I have even tried Does anyone here know a potential fix?

Unfortunately I was not able to post the URL to the nightly itself, but it's at drdevs,com if you can find it.

Also have tried reflashing the rom and Gapps, to no avail. If someone knows a modem, or a patch I can install, please let me know, it would mean worlds to me to be able to have a running 5.0 rom with no problems.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] esseff:
Yep I have an X5 unit connected to my Imate Jasjam and have not updated the firmware.

Yes it did skip when I first tried it but after a bit of experimenting, discovered turning off WiFi fixed it.

Yes it was mono till I did the reg hack to make it stereo.

No I don't get any hiss and think the quality is great (I know this is subjective but I tested female vocals as you suggested and they were great -Croncrete Blond, Eurythmics, Dyvinals, and even Chris Issac)

You may want to go here http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/default.aspx to realise the complications/dificulties the Ms WM guys are up against. I am sure they had a good reason to set the default to mono (maybe some devices didn't work at all with it set to stereo)

I would have to suggest there are other issues with your setup that are compromising the playback quality. I honsetly am impressed.

I don't use it as a phone headset as I use the X3 model to connect to two phones (I like Blue Ant stuff), so I can't comment on the mic quality.

When you consider that most people are having a nightmare with their stereo headsets (read the Widicom thread, if you have a lifetime to spare), then I am totally impressed with Blue Ant.

Sorry to have to disagree with you.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] Zilch:
Thanks for the reply!

Hmm...ok. Are you saying that the quality from your JasJam is the same as if you used the supplied Bluetooth Dongle that comes with the X5? (That's my goal currently)

If so, maybe there is some sort of configuration difference between the JasJam and the Dopod. (The JasJam is on the compatibility list, and the support guy did say he had used it ok)

I'm not just being an anal hifi buff here. The sound quality is obviously poor, and quite noticeable. You probably don't have it, but if you listen to the track 'Lithum' by 'Evanescense' it makes you cringe when the vocals come in (the piano sounds relatively normal. It's noticable in all tracks, but specifically in tracks like that.

Did you use this utility to tweak the A2DP sound settings? Or edit the registry manually (if so, can you tell me what settings you used?)

I don't really accept that as a valid reason. Sure they have problems. The least they could do is make a user tweakable UI to change that setting. It's not acceptable to have a protocol designed for stereo music set to mono and no way for a user to change it.

Ok, good to know. I haven't given up yet!

Not at all! Thanks again for the reply.

Edit: If you get a chance, can you do me a favour and check if yours is the H1 or the H4 model? (First two digits of the serial number, under the battery of the left headphone).

Zilch.

Ehh... they could pay up and get a proper BT-stack from Widcomm....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] esseff:
I haven't used the dongle for a long time but when I did it was thru my HiFi playing CDs not MP3 so there may have been a difference in quality but never bothered to compare as I never had a problem with the playback quality from my Imate.

I did a manual reg fix using the wiki recommendations of 48 and 0.

I have model H1.

You may be right that the Imate is configured a little differently but I also run it very clean.

I have so few problems compared to what I read that I feel embarressed that I'm so lucky. As an IT consultant I just luv it as my work phone - I use VPN, Terminal Services, WiFi, Push Email, internet access, etc... and it's a phone! Constantly impressed.

Rant>

Can't believe the way people on this forum butcher their devices and end up with something that is full of broken things... oh but I'm sooooo cool because I have WMXL .20.1 with radio rom 6.47.803 - don't care that nothing works anymore. Juss wanna be soooo cool. :rolleyes:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] Zilch:
Did you set a bitrate?

I wonder if this is the difference. Mine is an H4 version.

Just for the record, I got the headphones a few days after I got the phone. The only thing I had done was put my SIM card in, copy a few MP3s and change the default theme (since the Dopod one is grey).

There were no mods/hacks/cooked ROMS/tweaks etc. Just the ROM it came with which is also the latest version on the Dopod website. My phone is supplied to me by work, so I need it to be as reliable as possible - I can't afford to mess around with it. (Which is one of the reasons I resent having to edit the registry to get some stereo headphones to play in stereo)

Note: Today I have a few apps installed. An RSS reader, train timetable, TomTom etc. Only hack is the registry change for A2DP, and a util which sets the soft input to Block Recognition mode on startup. None of these seem to have affected the quality of the A2DP stream in any way though.

Unless I can try my headphones with someone's JasJam, or another Dopod I'm not sure I'm going to be able to narrow down the issue. I think it has to be a difference in the X4 hardware/firmware or an issue with the Dopod ROM (compared to the JasJam one)

I have it as a work phone too - and work in IT. I haven't had any issues with it except Windows Media Player losing the tracks on the storage card, and the device locking up from time to time (this is always when I am not using it - it is turned off and does not turn back on). Overall it's a great phone!

Dude. You are hanging around the xda-developers forum. Each to their own. Tweaking is fun for these guys. It's like mechanics cars. You and I are in a different position as our phones are a work tools and have to be reliable. I'm more than happy to benefit from people experiences hacking theirs though :-)

Zilch.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] Zilch:
I was actually considering getting an X3 as well (they look cool), but I will wait until I have worked out the issues with my X5.

Just thinking about this. How does it work? You are bopping along to your perfect A2DP sound, and you somehow hear the phone ringing, so you take off the stereo headphones, get your X3 out of your pocket, insert it in your ear, and answer the phone!?

Zilch.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] esseff:
Don't use X5 at work, but when I'm relaxing at the beach or around the pool. Use X3 connected to my Imate and my private phone at work. AT the time it was the only headset that would connect to more than one device and works great.

... but i shake my head in disbelief when I read some of the things ppl do.

Kupur was applauding an admitted newbie who, after 1 hr of owning his device decided it wasn't right and flashed it with some cooked rom, upgraded the radio, and SIM/CID unlocked it!!

How can this guy have any point of referance? How can he know he has made an improvement if he never bothered to use it properly in it's std state? And he will no doubt curse and abuse Ms and HTC for producing crap hardware and software.

As you say each to their own but it's hard for me to understand some ppls mentality.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] Zilch:
If I was tempted to do that, right after getting it is probably when I would do it. Reloading all your stuff sucks. Plus if he needed it SIM unlocked to use it that could be why.

Plus, what a better way to learn than bricking a $900 brand new phone? :)

Zilch.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] Zilch:
To answer my own question in case anyone else is having this issue...it's all fixed with the official WM6 ROM. Works perfectly. (Except for the dropouts when WiFi is enabled)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] targ:
yeah I have them and have had for quite some time now ... first used them with my Eten G00 then the G500+, then I changed phones to a nokia n73 and things didn't seem so good. anymore I lost the remote functions and even though I like the new phone I missed some things like nav and others so i went back tot he g00+. I have now updated to the HTC Tytn II I think sim to your hermes ....

I find nothing wrong the x5 controls a re great and quality is exceptable... I have no issues with Wifi.. I have the updated firmeware on my x5 and the stock firmware on my tytn II..

I also have a hs850 paired to the device the only thing I deslike on the hole issue is that everytime I use the x6 I have to fiddle around getting them to resume the pairing.

where as my hs-850 I just turn on blue tooth and turn on the headset... and off we go...

I have the x5 set as default headset and default stereo headset... the hs850 is just another device listed and pairs up soon as its turned on.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] SunnyRio:
Can someone post me the headset firmware and how to use it?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] Zilch:

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robotnikman:
Hi, I was wondering if its possible to switch from the leaked version of the verizon note 3 kitkat to the official OTA version

almost a year ago when the leaked version of kitkat was released for the verizon galaxy note 3 I ended up installing it. It was good at first but as time went on I noticed a lot of bugs (the most annoying of which was the lockscreen play/pause buttons for music not working more than half the time), and now its gotten so bad to the point where my phone freezes at least once a day and I have to pull out the battery to restart it

So I wanted to switch to the official kitkat OTA released by verizon in hopes of having a more stable phone, especially seeing how my friends verizon note 3 with kitkat experiences no problems at all.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] tmease1:
Ok, to just clarify. Go into Verizon and tell them I need a nano sim for my s5 and get a adaptor? Do Verizon sell the adaptors or do I need to get one off of Amazon? I'm wanting to keep the phone number associated with my gs5 which right now has the micro sim.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] jaben2:
You can just call them, sometimes online chat will send one as well.

You will need to tell them you need it for your turbo. They won't give you a Sim that won't fit the phone you have.

Tell them you bought a turbo or any phone that uses the nano Sim(iphones use them)

Order the adapter off of amazon or somewhere else. When you have both use the adaptor to activate the Sim in your current phone, then switch as needed.
