Summary of Contents for Xtreamer Ban-G

  • Page 1 Xtreamer Xtreamer Ban-G Getting Started Guide...
  • Page 2 With Android you literally have the world on your fingertips. On Xtreamer Ban-G you have an Android version called Jelly Bean. This is an advanced OS: smoother, faster and more responsive than anything you might have seen on a mobile device. There are a lot of nice little features that will make your life easier and more convenient and we will go through some of them.
  • Page 3 Gmail email client, Google Maps (which features free turn-by-turn satellite navigation), YouTube etc. All of these applications are pre-installed on your Ban-G. Beyond that, you can also buy or download for free many other apps to enable your phone to do more.
  • Page 4 The Desktop The Android desktop is composed of multiple home-screen panels. You can customize the Android desktop to reflect your interests, and you can make it as full and dynamic as you like. When you power up your phone, you'll see the main homescreen panel. This panel is typically centered, and you can access additional panels on either side of the main one by swiping your finger left or right.
  • Page 5 Folders are a good way to keep your content organized while simultaneously expanding your homescreen space. A folder lets you group multiple shortcuts in a single space. When you tap on a folder, a box pops up showing all of the shortcut icons inside that folder.
  • Page 6 The Home key has two functions: If you press it once, it takes you back to your home screen. If you press and hold it, it allows you to multitask and switch to other programs you've recently used. Pressing the Back key takes you back one step to whatever you were doing prior to the beginning of your current step.
  • Page 7 Status panel On the top of the screen you can see time, battery icon, signal strength bar. You can also see additional information for various enabled services. Swipe it down to access the Status panel. Press the button in the top right corner.
  • Page 8 SIM slot, the second one is for the second SIM slot. These are the regular signal strength indicators. Xtreamer Ban-G is a Dual Standby phone. Dual standby is when both SIMs can work at the same time, but say for example you use one SIM card to make a call, the other SIM card will not work and be on standby for the duration of the call.
  • Page 9 Using a dual SIM phone on Ban-G is simple. You have all the options you need at the touch of a button. Connecting your Ban-G to a network You can turn Wi-Fi, mobile network connection and BlueTooth from the status panel.
  • Page 10 When your phone detects a "known" Wi-Fi network and if both options are enabled, then the Ban-G will automatically switch to the Wi-fi connection. This is a good way to save some money especially if you have a limited data plan.
  • Page 11 APN settings for Mobile Networks Most SIM cards have the relevant information injected but sometimes you may need to do it yourself and set the Access Point Name in order to get access to 3G connection. There are various APN apps on Google Play Store and, most likely, there is a special app for your country.
  • Page 12 Connect to a Bluethooth device Enable Bluetooth in the settings. Then, the first time you use a new Bluetooth device, you need to "pair" it with your device so that both devices know how to connect securely to each other. After that, they connect automatically.
  • Page 13 Other settings you might want to check Set Ringtone Navigate to Settings -> Audio Profiles and press on the Options icon on the right from the profile you want to edit. Touch Voice call ringtone to access the list of all the available Ringtone files. If you want to add more ringtones, there are plenty available on the Net.
  • Page 14 Display Settings This is where you can, for example, to adjust Brightness of your screen to suit your personal needs better. There is also another important feature – Auto-rotate Screen. It is very useful for many things: from reading books and e-mails to watching movies, and from gaming to web-browsing.
  • Page 15 OK. Battery Settings Xtreamer Ban-G has a powerful battery but you can't beat the laws of physics. If you are a power-user, the battery will be drained. In the Settings -> Battery you can see which services use your battery's power.
  • Page 16 Phone Security You phone comes with the default phone lock Slide but you might consider enhancing your security by using additional protection provided in your Ban-G's system. Go to Settings -> Security. Touch Screen Lock You can choose among these lock options, listed in approximate order of strength: ...
  • Page 17 These are just some basic things you might need to know in order to get more "juice" out of your new friend and partner – Xtreamer Ban-G. There is, of course, more. Just like any other operating system, Android is full of surprises, functions and features.
  • Page 18 We would like to end this guide with a few tips and tricks for Android Jelly Bean. They are actually pretty much not-known at all by most Android users so, hopefully, you'll get an opportunity to show off your "tech expertise" Say "Google"...

  • Page 19: Notification Shade

    Notification Shade We previously referred to it as the "pully-down menu thing", but apparently it's officially called the "Notification Shade". Niftily, certain notifications in the shade can be expanded by sliding two fingers outwards on them, giving you an overview of the subject headers in your email inbox, for example.
  • Page 20 Turn notifications off Install enough apps and the notification bar at the top of your Android device becomes the digital equivalent of an unending stream of ticker tape. In fact, Airpush is an entire advertising company that makes money in this way. Fortunately, each and every app you install in Jelly Bean has the option to turn this off.
  • Page 21 Rearrange your home screens Long-press on any icon or widget on your homescreen and you can move it around, and other icons and widgets will shift out of the way to fit it in. Bigger widgets can also be resized by long-pressing and releasing them, and then dragging the circles that appear on the edges.
  • Page 23 Fling to remove Homescreen app clutter (surely the worst of all types of clutter) can be quickly and easily defeated. Long-press an icon or widget, then fling it upwards and it'll ascend into shortcut heaven. This won't uninstall the app, though - it'll still reside in your app drawer.
  • Page 24 Access App info The all-important App info screen - which allows you to uninstall, stop and disable apps - can be accessed in a completely new way with Jelly Bean. Pull down the notification shade, long-press on an open task and you'll be taken straight to the settings page for the relevant app.
  • Page 25 Gallery views Android snappers will love its new gallery features. Pinch on photos to zoom out into a filmstrip mode, where all your pics are displayed side-by-side. Swipe left and right to browse all your snaps quickly, and slide up and down on individual images to delete them.

  • Page 26: Add Accounts

    Add accounts Android devices - especially tablets - are great for passing around and sharing. But until now switching between various Google accounts has involved wiping the whole device and starting again. Jelly Bean's handy Add account feature takes pride of place in the settings app, making it easy to add multiple Gmail addresses to your device.
  • Page 27 Set a custom rejection text message When your Twitter action is rudely interrupted by someone actually telephoning you, there's a polite way to give the caller the boot. Android 4.0 lets users ping a rejection text message to callers - and you're able to customize this too. Just answer a call and ping the lock screen notification up to access to custom rejection messaging area.
  • Page 28 There's a Settings shortcut in the Notifications pane That little settings icon in the notifications area isn't just art to fill the space. It's a shortcut to your phone or tablet's settings area. So use that instead of giving it a Home screen icon slot all to itself.
  • Page 29 You then have options to edit, crop, delete, and share the photo. This makes sharing and even making changes to the captured screenshot much simpler than before. That's it for now. I hope you found our guide helpful. Best regards to you and enjoy your new Ban-G!
