MP3 player [Menu 7-1]

The T5100 has an integrated MP3 player built-in. You can enjoy

listening to MP3 music files on a memory in your phone using a

compatible headset or via the internal loudspeaker.

Note

• Because of the small dimension of the speaker, in

some cases the audio could be distorted, especially

at maximum volume and when there are lots of bass

sounds. Therefore, we recommend you to use the

stereo headset in order to appreciate the high quality

of your music.

The MP3 player supports:

• MPEG-1 Layer III: Sampling frequency up to 48KHz, Bit rate up to

240Kbps, stereo.

• MPEG-1 Layer III: Sampling frequency up to 24KHz, Bit rate up to

160Kbps, stereo.

You can transfer MP3 files from a compatible PC to the memory in

your phone using the Mobile Agent program (or PC sync program)

on the CD-ROM in the sales package. When you connect the phone

to a PC using the USB cable (supplied in the same package), you

need to install a driver. Select T5100.inf. For further details, refer to

the CD-ROM manual.

Note

• The PC should run Windows 98 SE, Windows 2000,

Windows ME, or Windows XP operating system.

• Besides downloading the MP3 files to the phone,

you can upload the pictures and movies taken on

the phone to the PC using the USB cable. To

download the ring tones, wallpaper, or Java games,

the serial cable is required. And you can also

manage the phonebook, scheduler, and message

box on the PC with the serial cable. Consult with the

authorised dealer for availability of accessories.

Java [Menu 7-3]

Java is a technology developed by Sun Microsystems. Similar to the

way you would download the Java Applet using the standard

Netscape or MS Internet Explorer browsers, Java MIDlet can be

downloaded using the WAP enabled phone.

Depending on the service provider, all Java based programs such as

Java games can be downloaded and run on a phone. Once

downloaded, the Java program can be viewed within the

Applications menu where you can select, execute,or delete. The

Java program files saved in the phone are in .JAD and .JAR formats.

Note

• The JAR file is a compressed format of the Java

program and the JAD file is a description file that

includes all detailed information. From the network,

prior to download, you can view all detailed file

descriptions from the JAD file.

Warning

• Only J2ME (Java 2 Micro Edition) based programs

will run in a phone environment.

The J2SE (Java 2 Standard Edition) based

programs will only run in a PC environment.

using the WAP. All previous downloaded programs can be selected,

deleted, or viewed in detail within the Application menu. From the list

within the Application menu, the following options are available:

programs installed in the phone.

• Delete: Delete the selected program. Once deleted, you will not be

able to restore the program unless it is downloaded again using the

WAP.

program. This includes the program name, program size, program

version, vendor information and the website address or the URL.

Download [Menu 7-3-2]

When a new Java program is downloaded using the WAP, the

address from which a download takes place is known as a

bookmark. The Java menu includes a bookmark list for downloading

Java programs and this bookmark list can be viewed from the

Download menu. You can connect, view, edit, delete, and add new

bookmarks.

• Connect: Selected address in the bookmark is used for data

connection. After successful connection, desired Java program can

be downloaded from the list.

• View: Detailed information on a bookmark can be viewed such as

the address of bookmark and title of bookmark required for

menu.

memory. There is a maximum memory capacity in a phone and once

programs. This menu allows you to check the available memory

capacity in a phone.
