i don't like a big shutdown button !!!
i like small.
'batt.arm' is my favourits
Click-and-hold your pocketplus' shutdown button and set it as "large icon", hoping it's big enough for you.
Hi,
I have tried pocketplus 2 , the problem is my qtek hangs 2 3 times a day.
With the older version 1.3 I have not the possibility to change the to larger icon.
Thanks any way

hello! i've searched but didnt find any help with my problem. When my jasjar rings (incomming call) and after i press the answer button (the green one) i need to wait about 1 to 2 seconds before i can hear the person that is calling me...strange...did this ever happen to you? how can i solve this problem? Thanks in Advance
Yes, i have the same problem on my MDA Pro
After pressing the green button, i have to wait 3 secounds with speaking.
I had the same problem and now is solved.
In phone/options/band select WCDMA (not automatic)
i think that didnt solve the problem...sorry...thanks
I have the same probelm on the incoming call. However, i finally realized that it's the problem on the Pocket Plus V3.0.4 installed on the system.
It appear to be normal once i removed the program.
It's the case for me, and i hope it would help you as well
I too have this problem with my I-Mate Jasjar. I need to wait for a few seconds after hitting the answer button before I can hear the calling party. I did a hard reset and installed the latest wwe ROM available on clubimate site. The problem still persists even without any third party software installed. So I do not blame pocketplus for this problem. I think this is a software/hardware issue which should be addressed in a ROM upgrade.
I have the same problem with my JasJar. I have also updated to the lates ROM from clubImate by advice from clubImate support.
Sometimes the phone does not even answer the call at all when pressing the green button. This is becoming an even more expensive phone since I have to call back so many people on account of missed calls
Seriously, It cannot be right that a problem like this exists on a phone in this price range. ClubImate support even said they had never heard of this problem before.
i did a few hard resets and the problem persists without any extra software installed. "Very bad bug". i've already test a K-jam and it works beautifull...i'm sad
Got my XDA Exec today. It's pretty good but is not the same as my XDA2. Even less phone. More PDA...
If I turn my machine off in landscape mode and then close the lid with the screen out (like the XDA2) then when a call arrives it takes ages to answer because the screen has to rotate first to portrait mode.
If I turn off and close in laptop mode (landscape) then it rings immediately and I can answer it immediately using the hinge buttons.
Maybe it is the same for you?
i have noticed it seems to be quicker to goto portrait than to landscape in all respects of use
ok, lets try it...thanks
how i test it: jasjar "on" charging, open in portait mode. same delay.
L to P is roughly twice as long for me.
going to L i get twist and flip and the display is done ready and waiting
going to P i get twist and flip then get a 2s ish of L before it flips to P
this was battery power
*** its the same on mains and battery !

When my Exec is on, the rotation is pretty much instant. I have no apps running. It's only when a phone call wakes it up that the rotation is slooooow.
My Qtek 9100 also take app. 5 sec before it rings, and the S100 I had before was the same. My dad has an XDA mini, same problem. It seems like pocket plus will increase the problem, but even without any extra software its not working perfect. Its strange after such long time, they havent been able to solve simple problems like theese.
I also get this, Its very annying. Maybe they incorperated it so you can answer the call asap and the before it acually picks up, you have a few seconds to turn the screen round and see whos calling ect?
I have an Exec and there is certainly a knack to answering a call on it, but i'm getting better!!!
Firstly the voicemail seems to kick in way too early, i only get 4 rings of the 'ring' ringtone max before the VM kicks in, sometimes i think it is less, but i may just be going deaf! does anyone else find this a problem?(not deafness)
As i usually have the exec closed in my pocket, this is how i answer a call.
1, Hear the first ring, if i don't it's too late already!
2, Drop everything, and remove phone(ha!) from case and open into laptop mode only. If i rotate all the way into PDA mode the screen takes too long to change and the call goes to VM before i can see who it is.
3, Answer call after seeing who it is
4, Rotate or close screen and put to my ear and wait 2 seconds to speak.
It's a real pain in the arse and very annoying.
Great forum btw, it's been very helpful, i knew bugger all about PDAs three weeks ago.

Which button(s) do you have success with?
The small green on the side,
the green above the other keys on the keyboard,
the soft key button,
or touching the screen?

If you're using the Exec on o2, you can adjust the cut-in delay at the o2 end. You do so by keying in/sending the following to o2:
**61*901*11*xx# [send]
(where xx is number of seconds, e.g. 30.)
Note: I think the maximum delay allowed is about 30-secs - at least I've never got it to extend longer than that!
I have found that o2 occasionally reset mine back to about 10-secs, so have it programmed into a contact number.

I've found something interesting.
I tried to swap two sim cards.
<boring>
The one originally in my phone was a sim card from Orange Denmark (where I live). Orange has since been bought by Telia, and this same sim card is now using Telias network. This is by design. It gives my the roaming symbol all the time since the buy-over.
To say the least, some things have been very ****ty in this process, so I thougt that I might try another sim card.
</boring>
I had another one from TDC (another danish operator), and bang! My Universal (Jasjar) answers instantly - every time - on all the buttons!
Could some of you who have this problem as well, please confirm this? Please tell what kind of sim card (and country) you are networking through, and try another one.
Hello Guys,
Today, I finally got my new MDA Vario - which is an upgrade to my MDA compact (Magician).
One thing that is really bothering me is the fact that when I used the Magician - I always used the speed dial function using only one hand:
First push is the green dial button and the second push is the down arrow. This was extremely convenient.
Is this possible to do with the Wizard??? if not - then this would be extremely inconvenient for me.
I hope you guys can help
Thanks,
Lisa
No, in WM5 for some silly reason they removed this very convenient "shortcut".
I have to say though that the Speed Dial button on the screen is very large, and it can be pressed one handed quite easily. Still it is a big waste not to use the d-pad whenever possible.
This is where Microsoft needs to learn from Palm big time: one-handed usage using d-pad.
Hi Folks,
I've found a little bug in the lock screen ... i'm on the new rom, can't verify for the old one.
To reproduce:
Sleep phone, wake up phone and finally on the lock screen, press menu.
TADAA you're dropped straight into the home screen.
Kr,
-Kevin
p13 thats always been like that?? well I could do that on htc before and after the new rom
Same here, no bug, just a way to get rid of the lock screen without whiping the screen
Oh Okay
I didn't know that was normal behavior.
Nice to know, thanks guys!
Kr,
-Kevin
indeed, that is the standard way to unlock android devices. This is exactly the same on the G1 and Magic as well.
it also works when you are on a phone call. When the screen turns off and you need access to the buttons, you press menu and up it comes.
Cool. This is my first android device, since there is no mention of this behavior on the lock screen, i thought it was a bug.
It's nice to know, thanks for the pointer !
Hi,
I've had use of a Touch Dual for the past few days, but have to send it back due to a fault. Although I'm getting a refund in this situation, I'm thinking of buying another, because I quite like the phone - I just have a couple of questions...
Is there any way of turning off the sound when you dial a number? (the touch-tone sound on each button press)
Also, can it go into a 'standby' mode where you can still see the time (faintly) on the screen, instead of turning the screen completely off? I found it useful with my old phone to be able to just look at the screen to see the time (it displayed it as a kind of screensaver).
Thanks for your help.
I don't own a touch dual (looking at getting one) but I can guarantee you there is a way to turn off the sound when you dial a number, its a standard setting in windows mobile,
as for the faint screen I can pretty much guarantee you theres a way to do it as well, whether you use a lockscreen program like s2u2. it would drain the battery to have it on ALL the time, what you want is something where u just press the middle button and the clock turns on right away, then turns the screen off 10 seconds later, which also you can do.
Thanks for the information orangekid - I thought there must be a way to at least turn off the sound - I'll just have to look around the options in windows mobile a little more when I manage to get a new one.
