Frequently Asked Questions |
Upon purchase of the Status Light, a message will be generated and sent to the email address you listed with Handango, containing your Email and Reference ID. You will need this information, along with the 2 "Key Codes" that are generated from installing the initialization portion of the Status Light program.
In the zip file from the initialization portion of the Status Light, there are 3 files:
README.txt
SLAct.jad
SLAct.jar
Using WebJAL R01.01.02, transfer the 2 files (.jad & .jar) to your phone.
If you have TotalConnect with Nextel, then you can probably use MAM, most TotalConnect packages have MAM.
When the program starts it will list your 2 activation keys. The keys will be similar to this:
Example: (These will not work in activation for your phone)
Key 1
4AA8E26F42124148FBF093D6E7AC23E3
Key 2
979511B7461514B6144F9F02B0434E5B
"Key Codes" will be used to generate a version that will run on your phone. Please be sure to note these codes down. If the "Key Codes" are entered into our web page incorrectly, the program will not run on your phone.
Once you have your Email, Reference ID and 2 "Key Codes", you will need to do one of the following Activation methods.
Activation Methods:
--------------------------------
1. WAP Activation
2. COMM Assisted Web Activation
3. Web Activation
--------------------------------
1. WAP activation
--------------------------------
WAP is possible for people with plans from Nextel that allow them to open socket connections. Enter your Email and Reference ID into the fields and press the WAP button and it will send your information to the server. The screen will display "Success" and the activated version will be emailed to you in approximately 10 minutes.
WAP socket connections are not the same as having internet access. If you are not sure you can try the wap activation. The only thing that will happen if you don't have socket connections in your rate plan is that the connecting screen will eventually display an error message. If you get the error message, you more than likely have a plan that does not allow socket connections, but if you have access to a computer on the internet you can follow the Web Activation instructions.
An activated version will be sent to you in a matter of 10 minutes after successfully entering your information.
Once activation is complete the StatusLightActivator midlet can be deleted from the phone.
2. COMM assisted Web Activation
--------------------------------
To reduce the possible errors in entering the activation keys, the COMM Assisted web activation method generates the URL for you so you can easily activate the product. It uses the data cable and a program called HyperTerminal that is distributed with many versions of windows and a free trial version is also available at
http://www.hilgraeve.com/htpe/
Connect your phone to your computer using the USB or Serial data cable.
Start the HyperTerminal applications by selecting
Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> HyperTerminal -> HyperTerminal
or
Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> Communications -> HyperTerminal -> HyperTerminal
From within the HyperTerminal application, select the
File -> New Connection
menu item from the drop down menus located at the top of the application.
Choose a name as well as an icon for the new connection, something like “i730”, and click on the “Ok” button.
Select the Communication port the data cable is connected to, typically COM1 or COM2. If you are using a USB cable look at Modems in the Control Panel and that will tell you what comm port the USB driver is using.
A properties dialog box appears. Configure the bits per second to coincide with the Baud Rate set on the i730 (usually 19200). Set the Data bits to 8, Parity to None, Stop bits to 1, and Flow control to Hardware.
From the keyboard, type the following AT command to turn on Java debug.
AT+WS46=252;+WS45=0;+IAPPL=2;D
You can cut and paste this into the HyperTerminal window.
It should respond with
OK
Now run the StatusLightActivator app, enter your Email and Reference ID, and select the COMM menu button.
This will generate a URL on the HyperTerminal screen that you can cut and paste into a web
browser and will activate your product.
Exit HyperTerminal and disconnect your phone.
An activated version will be sent to you in a matter of 10 minutes after successfully entering your information.
Once activation is complete the StatusLightActivator midlet can be deleted from the phone.
3. WEB Activation
--------------------------------
WEB Activation is accomplished by going to the following link
http://blakertp.homelinux.org/Activator/webact
Enter your Email, Reference ID and your 2 "Key Codes". (Please check to make sure that you entered your information correctly. Our site only allows 1 attempt.) An activated version will be sent to you in approximately 10 minutes upon validation of your information with our database.
Once activation is complete the StatusLightActivator midlet can be deleted from the phone.
It does run in the background, that is how it auto resumes. However, background apps do not have control of the lights, so to change the lights it must be in the foreground. The blink process keeps running when it is in the background, the phone just ignores its light commands.
If this is a problem, just hit your d/c button once before opening.
You will need the java 1.4.2 runtime environment.
http://javashoplm.sun.com/ECom/docs...sactionId=noreg
make sure java is in your path, do a
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
(C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.
C:\>java -version
java version "1.4.2_03"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_03-b02)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2_03-b02, mixed mode)
C:\>
Then unzip the attached file into the directory of your choice, start the bat. Pont it to the StatusLight.jar file, the StatusLight.jad file must be in the same directory. Then point it to your 130x130 or smaller png wallpaper (png is the only format supported by java) or a sound file. Sounds must be 8 bit,8 khz, mono pcm. Upload to phone.
It is in the Zip File under Docs.
1-2-3
As long as you filled out all the info and purchased it using a valid email then you will get the update.
This happens when there is a sharing violation in windows. If you have windows explorer open and the focus is set to the jad file or jar file, or WinZip is still open, etc, webjal will not be able to access the file. Close all other applications except webjal and try the transfer again. XP has a habit of leaving orphaned processes - so you may need to reboot.
Once your purchase is made through Handango, an email is sent with your purchase information to me from Handango. That information will be entered into my system and an email will be generated. That email will be sent to the email address you listed through Handango. That email will contain your username and password. The turn around time from your purchase to our email with username during Standard Business Hours (M-F, 8-6) will be approximately 1 hour or less. Weekday Evenings till 11 will be approximately 2 hours or less. Nights and weekends will vary.
Updates are generated automatically and emailed to the address you listed when purchased through Handango. Update Emails are mailed out at approximately 3 emails every second.
Check to see that you installed the initialization part and generated 2 key codes (These are 2 separate 26 digit numbers that are unique to your phone).
Then check to make sure that you did one of the 3 activation methods listed above. Once one of the 3 methods is completed, the activation part of the program will be emailed to you within 10-15 minutes.
If after installing the activation part of the program, the status light does not work, then the key codes might have been entered incorrectly. You will need to send an email to statuslite@nc.rr.com or codecannon@hotmail.com with your email and reference id number. We will then compare the numbers that were enter on our website with the numbers that are displayed on your phone. Once the key codes are corrected, a new email will be sent to you containing the activation part of the program with the corrected key codes.
Our website only lets you enter your information once.
Please send me an email to codecannon@hotmail.com with the subject line of Email Address Change. I will ask you to verify the following information:
Name
Order Number
Previous Email Address
Once the information is received and verified, then an email will be generated with the update and your pass code.
