I have some problems with JAM

Vodafone UK - ROM 1.06 - I-mate Jam
I just bought my JAM two days ago... and I have these questions that need to be solve, pls help if u can...
1. More than often, when I go to settings, if I switch between tabs in here (personal, system, connection), the message: Backup battery is very low (it is 100% full).. then it freeze the unit, I have to do a soft reset - how do I fix this? Is it one of ROM 1.06 bug?
2. Can we assign mp3 as ringtone?
3. How can I disable GPRS? I only need GSM
4. Does it have any ROM user accessible? - I see a folder Storage but not sure if its RAM or ROM?
5. When I use cable to sync with my laptop, I couldn't use the internet on the JAM? When I try to open a webpage from IE, it will try to connect using Vodafone GPRS. Eventhough my worldmate still get the weather update, and the antivirus program still check its update. So how do I use the internet from the JAM?
Thanks a lot.

now I just installed the Bluetooth patch... and now bluetooth incon doesn't show up in Today screen... what should I do?

I will try to answer some, as I have a jam on voda (from expansys)

I do not get this issue at all, I have the 1.06.00WWE rom.
2. Can we assign mp3 as ringtone?
Yes, copy the mp3 to windows/ring and it will be available in the pull down under phone options. There is also a cab file here http://www.pocketgear.com/ppcw/software_detail.asp?id=16569 that will let you hold down on an mp3 and select it as ringtone (auto copies it to windows/ring) you can also do a reg edit to store ring tones on the storage card, and the photo view app will let you assign individual tones to different callers (inc. mp3)
3. How can I disable GPRS? I only need GSM
Well, if you just want to stop GPRS connecting hold down the red button, if you want to delete it completely delete the profiles under start, settings, connections, connections, manage existing connections.
4. Does it have any ROM user accessible? - I see a folder Storage but not sure if its RAM or ROM?
I think that is UA ROM but im not 100%
5. When I use cable to sync with my laptop, I couldn't use the internet on the JAM? When I try to open a webpage from IE, it will try to connect using Vodafone GPRS. Eventhough my worldmate still get the weather update, and the antivirus program still check its update. So how do I use the internet from the JAM?
Im not sure, I havent tried this. I think it might be something to do with allowing internet passthrough in activesync but I am not sure.
HTH!

How to set up a WiFi network?

Hi,
I have a WiFi Netgear DG834GT 108 Mbps Router. No problem with internet access...but I would like to share files with my PC. How can I do? What SW should I need on my JJ and hoe to set router and JJ both to get them work?
THX so much for any help!

the easiest way is to use something like Resco File Explorer, an advanced version of the bundled file exploroer in WM5.
It costs about 20 dollars i believe.
Once installed, map your network drive to your home network and it should see it and file transfer will then be possible, as long as your shared folders are correct etc, as per any network

Thx for your reply,
I just want to use Resco File Explorer plug in called "My Network"...but it doesn't map any drive. I also have tried to change JJ setting in "configure network Adapters/My network card connects to" from "the internet" to "Work", but coming back to RescoExpl. and trying to Map Drive option, it didn't find anything once again.
Please help me with config if you can.
THX a lot!

ok, you have resco file explorer, so open it up, hold your styli on the My Network tab on left, and select map drive. A new window will open as it searches for your home network/pc shared foler etc. if it fails to find it like that, check you 'Hive' PC's name and make sure you have a folder selected to Share. Try that and let me know. (PS make sure wifi is on first on both exec and router!)

Thank you very much I DID IT!
:lol:

Well Done!!! Thats great glad to help, now enjoy streaming your music and videos to your exec whilst in the bath/garden/sofa!!

My good friend...
can you help me to let my JasJar print via WiFi??? In other words, is it possible to launch a print from JasJar via WiFi, by shareing my PC printer?
Am I asking too much?
:wink: :wink: :wink:

Hey hey!
aha! The only way i have ever done it unfortunatley is through terminal services client. So, open say, a word document from either your server PC or on your pocket PC, and save back to the shared on your desktop on your server PC and then via Terminal Services remote desktop and open the doc from your JJ screen and send to print from you server PC!
Long winded I know, anyone else got a better solution?
Hope that helps!

Uhm..I still have not tried your solution...but do you think there is any third party software that can do it, simply shareing printer via WiFi?

ill have a look, never really had a need myself, but ill have a look around, might be a good thing! Ill post if i find anything ok

Ok, thx...I'll take a look around too. I thought it would be useful for example if you receive an email on jasjar and you should print it to have it like a document...without further steps, directly from JJ...

HP has printer drivers for PPC!
They even support some Canon printers..

uhm..I have found Print Pocket CE, but it doesn't support WM2005 Office files, and PrintBoy...but I don't' know if it is compatible...
Any suggestion?

Need settings for O2 gprs

Hi,
The long and short of my tale is that my XDAIIi connects to GPRS but can not download email or browse the web. I believe this is because it keeps connecting to GRPS(O2 Active) and I think it needs to connect to GPRS (Mobile Web). Any ideas why this may be? I've tried altering various things but it keeps connecting to O2 Active which I think is incorrect.
I removed O2 Active but maybe having that would let me reset the settings. Is there a place I can download this from as I do not have my installation CD.
Thanks,
James.

If you search, you'll find cab files for all networks and types.
Just download the cab and copy of the PDA and run it from the PDA it'll install all the details for you.
Simple as.

Nice one. Thanks.

Wizard - SPB shell weather glitch

Greetz all. I have a g4 wizard and recently installed SPB Mobile Shell latest ver. After installing I could not use mw phone on the gprs net. Tried everything .. and pure chance I later discovered that the weather module in shell take posession of the modem - blocking tha Standard WM5 modem connection. If you do not select a city in the weather module setup - then the modem is set free and your internet is cool. If u select a city I can forget using the mail or internet.
Is there any hack or repair to fix this with hexedit or other patch? SPB do not believe me. Any help apprec....

Try unchecking the automatic update box in settings. Perhaps if it only down loads manualy you can still use you internet.
