:eek: YOU NEED TO DO A LITTLE MORE READING AND A LITTLE LESS ASKING :eek:

just kidding.... welcome to the forum... No n00b bashing from me...

coz then I'd have to bash myself too ;)

1. You can download skype from the skype website - try it if you have friends that use skype.

I haven't bothered as it takes a lot of CPU, and I think it can only use the headset or the speaker on the back of the phone.

You can download clearvue pdf reader, but I prefer adobe reader lite...

smartdial AFAIK is just what happens when you are typing a number to call, and the phone picks out matching contacts before you finish typing.

2. yeah, battery is lame. Go and live next door to a mobile phone transmitter, that will help :D

Seriously a lot of people get a spare battery, you could try underclocking the phone using "batterystatus", but then you will lose speed.

Make sure you have the power setting to turn off when not used (it still receives calls)

3. yes you can upgrade wm6 is shiny and new but there are bugs reported in pretty much every WM6 ROM so far.

I'm using TNT professional right now, it's pretty nice.

ipl=initial program loader

spl=secondary program loader

this is the bootloader, this runs before Windows loads up.

Sometimes if there is a problem upgrading you can fix it by writing a new ROM in bootloader mode

from the wiki

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] JAMinGUY:
THanks for the reply triplejay,

As far as i know, my JAMin doesn't come with smartdialer at all!!! When i dial numbers, it doesnt match any of them before i finish typing!! Could this be due to the version of my ROM??

Also with regards to ROMs, is it better to upgrade to a newer ORIGINAL ROM (ie. a ROM date is made by I-MATE) or should I upgrade to one of the "aftermarket ROMs found on this website?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] triplejay:
could be, not too sure about smartdial to be honest

well, if you depend on your phone for work or anything, I'd suggest sticking with an official ROM for now. If you don't mind the odd bug*, then join the "aftermarket" club!

*e.g. bluetooth stereo headsets work with good quality on the newest ROMS, however every time I reset the phone I have to re-pair the headset with it.

Internet works well, good integration of Windows Live, however, sometimes after a reset I have to re-confirm the internet settings for it to work.

Those are the only two I've experienced with this ROM (TNT)

You might want to wait a bit, newer ROMS are coming I think, maybe without these bugs...

I attach an example of my today screen on WM6
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] JAMinGUY:
Hi triple jay,

Your today screen looks totally different to mine...mine is still the original WM 5.0 screen...just wondering, did you make your today screen look like that by just installing the TNT ROM? Or do you have any other programs installed such as WISBAR..:confused:

Also after a week of use, i have noticed the BACK SPEAKER of my JAMin to distort occassionally when playing ringtones (set on the HIGHEST sound level)...is my speaker faulty???

Thanks for your help mate
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] grimmy:
Hi,

1. The lack of application could be due to lack of customization on your unit and it is just a generic wm5 rom. I would suggest a hard reset (not soft but hard reset) , then press the green send button to erase all the data on your handset. Then wait around 3 seconds after the reboot has finished and customization will commence.

2. The speaker most certainly sounds like it has problems, quite common and it will probably fail. They are cheap to purchase off ebay however installation is quite a bit of work.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] triplejay:
Hi, regarding my today screen; no Wisbar, I just have Batterystatus installed, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=270751,

that's the bottom line u can see there

the rest came with the TNT ROM

The bit above batterystatus where it says "sync" is windows live,

then above that is the htc homeplug (part of the ROM) with custom icons (not made by me)!

Reading the forums, I think quite a lot of people have had troubles with the speaker...

but I just checked mine and it seems to distort a bit on the very loudest setting too, at least with MP3s.

Like grimmy said, installation of a new one is quite a bit of work though so prob. not worth it unless it dies completely....
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] JAMinGUY:
Hi triplejay,

I have decided not to tamper around with my ROM just yet until i am familiar with the various available ROMs.

I have instead decided to install some today screen plugins such as wisbar,spb pocket plus etc etc . Do you have any suggestions of TODAY screen plugins that don't slow my JAMin down? I have heard that SPB slows the JAMin down and also has some program compatibility issues.

Thanks
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] triplejay:
Before I updated my ROM I used to use SPB mobile shell, and SPB pocket plus.

There's no denying they take up a lot of space on your device though,

Speed wise, any slowdown seemed negligable, but then I had overclocked from day 1 so that prob. helped.

I haven't tried the latest wisbar, but the older versions I did try seemed quite good. Might try the new version out actually.

There are some freeware alternatives;

claunch is an older one

http://home.pacific.net.sg/~welic/claunch.html

https://sourceforge.net/projects/claunch/

rltoday is pretty cool

http://rotlaus-software.de/

lots of good user made skins on their site

http://rotlaus-software.de/forum/viewforum.php?id=5

I listen to a lot of music so the other thing I used to use was a plug-in that showed media player on the today screen,

e.g. the one at the bottom of this post or the newer HTC one http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=1318018&postcount=14
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] JAMinGUY:
Hi triplejay,

In regards to using SPB mobile shell, and SPB pocket plus, did you install these programs into your JAMin's phone storage memory or on the SD card? I have heard that installing programs into the phone's SD card causes the programs to run slower because the phone needs time to access the programs..and also how did these programs affect your memory?? used up alot of memory ?? Also would I still be able to set my own today backgrounds using these programs or can i only use the themes designed for these programs???

thanks for your help, your posts have been a lot of help to a newbie like myself :p
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] triplejay:
no problem :D

I don't think SPB mobile shell gives the option to install to SD card, it's possible with Pocket Plus but not recommended, even by SPB.

I remember reading the following on the SPB site,

and after that always installing stuff that involves the today screen or system to main storage...

...so the space they take up, is on the device and yes it is a fair amount of memory, maybe a fifth of available memory or something... (not sure)

you should be able to use your own pic for the background with all these I think,

the SPB extended themes for example, will set new system colours etc, with a matching background that you can change as normal.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] JAMinGUY:
Hi triplejay,

I have downloaded the trial versions of both SPB pocket plus and mobile shell and will install tonight and let you know how it goes...

Although i still have a couple of questions...

Backup programs such as SKTOOLS or sprite backup...should these be installed into the phone's SD card or the phone's memory ?? Also where should i install games????

Also does anyone know the date of the newest official ROM for the imate JAMin?? I have searched the imate site to no avail...

thanks guys
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] triplejay:
hey, JAMinGUY,

about the latest imate ROM, I wouldn't know, but looking at this blog post from menneisyys;

http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/in..._finding_identifying_the&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1

and then checking ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/

leads me to believe that the newest available is :

ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021_ship.zip

Could be wrong, just seems to make sense...

I would say definitely put games on the SD card, I've got my backup program (SPB backup) installed on SD too...

the only thing that I would be unsure of is SKtools, but it doesn't seem to run at startup, or run in the background,

so i would say it's probably OK to install to card as well.

...Unless if you did something like ran it off the card, then used it to format the card your running it off. That probably wouldn't be good, lol.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] JAMinGUY:
hey guys,

i have been using SPB POCKET PLUS AND SPB MOBILE SHELL (both installed in system memory) for a week now and have noticed some things....

the phone seems slower to respond to screen taps...and also when i lock the phone, sometimes i can't unlock it...i need to soft reset it....

triplejay, do u know of any programs similar to SPB POCKET PLUS that dont have these freezing issues???

cheers mate
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] triplejay:
unfortunately not really :rolleyes: ...

if u haven't already tried rltoday though, that could be worth a go.

Resco explorer comes with a today plugin, but it's a bit gay, just a few icons, but resco explorer itself is quite good, try the demo if u havent already....

and a couple of threads below this one you will find the htc homeplug (for wm5), personally that homeplug together with batterystatus have filled all my own shortcut related needs....

Well i bought a Sprint G920P - Unlocked from an online seller. But when i put on the IMEI on either of these websites it shows my phone as a S5 G900F.

So the question is. Did i just got scammed? Is it possible to use the S5 IMEI onto a S6? Should i Return the phone and ask for a Refund? Or maybe IMEIDATA and IMEI.info showing wrong details?

Any replies would be much appreciated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] djkido316:
Anyone??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] mykehdoom:
I'd contact the seller and ask for a refund.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] djkido316:
Is there any possibility of IMEIDATA and IMEI.info to be showing wrong info? Cause it showed me once before. That's why i wanted some advise before asking a refund.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] mykehdoom:
It's a possibility it might of been unlocked wrong. And he might of used an S5 imei number. I'd still return it.
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] arunbiju969:
Hello guys,?

After into the use of the tablet for about 1 week I found same pretty cool tweak. Before coming in to the topic , I'm really impressed in the device performance also the issues that others faces could be solved . First of all for those who are complaining about the lollipop about nvidia removing the power control option let me say this,its not removed just hidden??.So first step in getting max fps is to find the power control [Just do a google in how to find hidden power controlled] So after finding the power control menu move to apps in the above mentioned section in the power menu and select the required game or app tap it and make a custom setting there on your desired requirements .There you may run apps in very low resolution or in very high [Nearly 2k] depending on your requirement.

So,??

Here in power control you can set the processor clock to save power or max performance or optimum depending on your need .this will help you resolve the battery issues in lollipop .

My recommendation is to play games in lowest possible resolution in the battery saver mode. This provides you with good amount of power saving. Also don't get me wrong in asking you guys to play games in lowest setting thinking that our device is not capable,its just to save power ??
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] GodOfPsychos:
.... uhm. look at the link below. thats a thread that i already made a while ago (last year to be exact -.-), buddy. this is nothing new

MY thread is in the same section (which is the "General Section") as the one you just posted today -.-

http://xdaforums.com/nvidia-tegra-note-7/general/attention-how-to-to-power-control-menu-t3164381

and sry if you might feel this would work, but it doesn't. many ppl already complained that the power control doesn't work in lollipop.

and about that resolution thing you mentioned. it kinda just lowers the display resolution, NOT the actual rendering resolution. so even if your game might feel snappier, its just a placebo effect afterall.

and pls use the search function next time before posting about something which already has a thread on this site (no offense)
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] arunbiju969:
I don't think so...

The power controll menu does work,Its is not changing the device resolution just the rendering resolution I'm saying this because just play a game in max resolution and in native one.you will find the max resolution one with some edge cutting problem... this is because of the high res texture in low display resolution. To really see the difference connect it to an fHd TV via an HDMI. Even if it is just lowering the device display still it would improve the frames by a good difference also my thread is not really about finding the power control but about how to use it....

I will be uploading visual proof of change in visual quality....
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] GodOfPsychos:
i wasn't talking about that the display resolution feature wouldn't work. i was talking about the whole power control menu itself with all its other functions. setting the cpu or the framerate did change absolutly nothing. if i change the framerate to 30 or even 25 for en example, the system would still output 60 fps (if the app/game is not too demanding in terms of performance). and about the cpu setting, guess what, this doesn't work either. if you change the clock to minimum for example, all apps/ games will still run normally like nothing was changed.

you can also check the cpu clock with any working cpu monitoring app and see that almost the whole power control menu does not work the way it should (or like it was on kitkat because that one really did work). only the display resolution thing is kind of working. but the rest of it isn't doing what its supposed to be.
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] arunbiju969:
Game is MC4 you can clearly see the colour difference in red
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] BigBen_PHL:
The power control works if you know what to tweak in it. There are applications that throttle if all 4 cores are used. Facebook works more stable with 2 cores and 80% frequency. You will see more opportunities if you experiment. In my observation in general, lollipop update in this device was not well thought out so Nvidia leaves the power management with you. Yeah, very irresponsible of them.

If tweaked right, performance difference of apps is night and day, no kidding. Stop arguing and finally try it, don't reason based on what you have read. This goes without saying, do not contribute if you don't have an actual unit. Thanks.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] levone1:
Dirty flash over previous build didn't work. First boot seemed normal and went through 'rr is updating' until the end, then froze on 'starting apps'. Powered off and rebooted and boot logo for 5 minutes, then 'unfortunately system ui has stopped', then blank screen. So, I wiped data and caches and rebooted, and I have clean install of new build, and everything is good, just have to reinstall and reflash everything, (no biggie).

My ROM was pretty heavily modded, so could be just bc of that.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Schlengge:
For me flashing this ROM automatically flashed CM recovery over my TWRP.

Maybe Omar can change this?

Because CM recovery is absolute horse hockey lets be honest :D

But ofc you can reflash TWRP manually.

I did a clean install, even wiped internal storage. Thought this is a good moment to clean up some bulk.
