Xtreamer Ban-G
Getting Started Guide
The purpose of this guide is to introduce to you some basic features and settings of
your new friend and partner: Xtreamer Ban-G – an Android mobile phone.
Android OS provides an open platform, lots of flexibility and a true freedom to
customize your phone to be uniquely suitable to your needs. And that's great but if
you have no experience with Android your first contact can be somewhat
overwhelming: all these options, settings, features and functions can present a bit of
a challenge.
Those new to the smartphone scene are suddenly required to learn a whole new
operating system and people used to the ordered simplicity of Apple products feel
that they are confronted by chaos.
Surprisingly there are almost no newbie guides for Android. So this is what we
wanted to give you: a few very simple tutorials and some advice on how to use your
new device.
So, let's begin…
A few words about Android
Android is an operating system for mobile phones, in much the same way that many
PCs run Microsoft Windows as their operating system. It is developed by Google and
allows you to use many of the programs you might have on your home computer,
such as Skype, Internet browsers, document readers and editors, but in addition to
that it provides access to the applications specifically created for devices with the
touch-screen interface.
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.
What does Android look like?
Android's standard layout is to have a series of Home screens, which can contain
shortcuts to launch apps, or can contain widgets, which are small programs that
serve a single function, such as controlling your music or displaying Facebook
updates.
From the Home screens, you can bring up a menu with all of your other apps on.
Very little is done from within the Android interface, but instead you launch an app
for what you want to do, including dialing the phone or browsing through your
contacts.
Android itself contains the functions that are vital to using a mobile phone, including
the phone dialer, text messaging client and phone number storage. Google also
provides some additional apps, including a 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. You can do it by using Google Play Store.
Turning you phone on for the first time
You can find the instructions on inserting SIM and SD cards in the User Manual you
received with your phone. Please make sure to fully charge your battery before you
switch the Ban-G on.
We also advise you to verify that you have a Google account. Please note, that you
can use an Android phone without connecting to Google but this will put a lot of
functions out of your reach. For starters, you would not be able to use over a million
apps in Google Play Store.
If you have a Gmail account, it means you already connected to Google.
And one more thing: using a smartphone means using its Internet features. Make
sure you have a good mobile plan with sensible data transfer rates. You might want
to contact your mobile service provider to make sure everything is as it should be,
When you turn the phone for the first time, the Android will take you through the
Setup Wizard. It will connect you to the Google services via your Google account,
setup your system and keyboard language etc. Please follow the instructions on the
screen.
It will only take a couple of minutes.
Ones your phone is on, you will be taken to the Android "Desktop".
