Platinum 55 - can't apps move to SD

I have a new Platinum 55 phone, have fitted a 64GB SD Card, but when I click on "Move to SD Card" (any app I have tried) a dialog appears "Couldn't move app. Not enough storage space."

I initially tried the SD card out of my existing Platinum 53 phone (which has no issues moving apps that can move ...

Stuttering audio on bluetooth headsets

I have tried three different bluetooth audio headsets with my Platinum 53 and they all exhibit the same stuttering audio (audio then silence then audio then silence...). All three audio headsets work fine with my Archos 101G9 tablet and similar distances. The audio is fine over the built-in speaker ...

Re: Accessories for Archos 53 Platinum

Not cheap, but Noreve do a very good one that I have just bought for mine - it fits perfectly with holes for camera and speaker. I've had a Noreve case for my Archos tablet for nearly a year and it still looks like new.
There are cheaper ones on Amazon, but I don't know what their quality is like.

Installing Apps on a USB memory stick?

Using a USB memory stick in the 3G port (as per http://forum.archosfans.com/viewtopic.php?f=84&t=66872&hilit=move+app+sd#p405280), is it possible to move apps onto the USB stick? On my new Archos Smartphone, I can use AppMgr to move files onto internal memory. Although I have the 250GB 101G9, I didn ...

New Platinum 53 didn't restore apps from Google

My new Archos phone didn't restore all apps from Google to mirror those installed on my tablet (I had expected it to as I thought that happened automatically when adding another device to an account).

Under Backup Account rather than the gmail account that is shown on the tablet, the phone has ...

Platinum 53 not playing WMA files

I have copied one of my ripped CDs to my Platinum 53 but the music doesn't play. The same files play on a 101G9 tablet.

The spec for the Platinum 53 claims that it will play WAV files - doesn't that mean it should play WMA files?

It will play a non-ripped .WAV file.

If it is not included natively ...

Re: Bluetooth headset

Why not seperate the issue of earphones and bluetooth reciever... especially if you already have earphones you like? I just got the cheapest bt reciever, and i can plug it into a big stereo system or into this or that earphone depending on the situation.


Thanks - having looked at the reviews for ...

Connecting to Windows 7 network share

I have folders shared over the network from a Windows 7 machine.

My laptop running Windows XP can see them and display the files.

In files, my Archos G9 displays the name of the machine, but when entering the user and password (the same as the laptop user) it just displays "Please wait while ...

Re: GPS is not working for me

I had the same thing and looking through other posts here, someone had success with a total reset (which I discovered wiped all the files so you need to back them up first). It also worked for me.

Hello,
You mean with total reset installing the last firmware from a system init?
When I do this do ...

Bluetooth headset

I'd like to get a Bluetooth headset, primarily for listening to music with my 101 G9

Something like http://www.plantronics.com/uk/product/backbeat-903-plus?skuId=sku5720050

What is compatible with the 101 G9?

Some also claim multi pairing which would be handy but not vital. The Plantronics one ...

Recover original files after 'Full reinitialization'

To get the GPS working as per another link I did 'Full reinitialization' (Settings - Repair & formatting - Full reinitialization).

GPS now works but I've lost all the original files on the tablet (sample apps, videos, music - possibly others). Is there somewhere I can retreive all those? I'm just ...
