About ARCHOS 28, 32, 35, 43, 70, 101 internet

tablets

What to check first

Make sure your WiFi Internet connection is working...

Some of your applications will not work

if you do not have a WiFi connection to

the Internet.

Check the user manual...

There is a wealth of useful information

in the full user manual. It is very well

written, and there are surely things in

there that you didn't know before.

There is an icon on the home screen to

access it.

Make sure you have the latest firmware...

This is one of the most important things

you should do. Firmware updates are

important to install because they add

new functionality, improve functionality,

and/or fix bugs. If you can connect by

WiFi to the Internet, then go to Menu >

Settings > About Device > Firmware

update to see if a newer one is

proposed. If you do not have a WiFi

connection to the Internet, you can

update your device by downloading the

latest firmware to your computer and

transferring it to your ARCHOS using the

USB cable. See the ‘How to install a

firmware’ on the download page of the

‘Support’ section.

Make sure your battery is completely charged...

Make sure that your battery is

completely charged by connecting it to

its power adapter (ARCHOS 70, 101) or

to your computer (ARCHOS 28, 32, 43)

(or by using a USB style wall charger)

for 8 hours or until the green charging

indicator light blinks. If using a USB wall

charger, make sure it is rated 5 volts 1A

(1000 mA).

WiFi

I have problems making a WiFi connection. What can I do?

First, update your ARCHOS to the latest

firmware version. Then try connecting

again after it is updated.

- Check the functioning of your Wifi

router/modem by using another Wifi

device (ex: friend’s laptop) to verify that

your router/modem is functioning

properly.

- Check your WiFi router/modem

documentation to see if it has a pairing

button that needs to be pressed. Some

modems have such a button that must

be pressed the very first time you try to

make a WiFi connection with a new

device.

- Make sure that you are relatively close

to the modem/router to make your first

connection. Then later you can test to

see how far away you can make a

connection.

- Try connecting to a friend's WiFi

access point to see if reacts the same

way. If it connects, then you know that

you'll have to set your WiFi

router/modem with similar parameters.

- Turn off the Wifi then turn it back on

again. Go to Menu > Settings >

Wireless controls and uncheck Wi-Fi.

Wait until the small text below “Wifi”

says “Turn on Wi-Fi” and then check it.

Your WiFi access point should show up

as an item below this.

-If you have to enter a password (an

security code of type WEP or WPA) be

very careful that you do not confuse a 1

and I (one and letter “I”), a 0 and O

(zero and letter “O”), or U and V. These

are common mistakes.

- When entering a security code for your

WiFi access, check the box “Show

password” which will allow you to see

exactly what you are typing in. This will

avoid any mistakes.

Android User Interface and applications

What does Aldiko eBook reader offer in terms of range and pricing of

books?

There are currently many classics as

well as modern books in various

languages available for free download.

These are free public domain works.

There are also hundreds of fiction, non-

fiction, technical, and other books for

purchase. Install other ebook

applications for more content.

Can I download apps from the Android Market? How?

No. However if .apk files are available

on the Internet from the maker of one

of the applications found on the Android

Market, then there is no reason you

could not download it from their site

and use it (so long as it does not require

a piece of hardware that the ARCHOS

does not have. Ex : compass,

telephone, GPS).

What e-books can I view on the ARCHOS?

Non-protected books published in the

eBook or ePub format are readable on

the ARCHOS with the free Aldiko™

application. You can also find dedicated

apps for ebooks such as one for Kindle

from Amazon. Page 3 / 14

What magazines / newspapers will users be able to read on their

devices?

You can download the application

“World Newspapers” or “Daily paper”

for free from AppsLib which will allow

you to read dozens of different

newpapers from around the world. You

will also find that a number of

newspapers have dedicated apps to

access their web site.

Will the Archos connect to popular photo sharing sites like Flickr?

Currently the included Photo Frame

application connects and shows pictures

from accounts (or keywords) from

Flickr™, Picassa™, and Facebook.

Can I read ‘office’ type documents on these devices eg: Word, Excel,

PowerPoint, PDF files?

The three larger internet tablets come

with a trial office suit application (30

days) already installed to read the

above mentioned files. There are also

Archives

purchasable applications are located.

Can users download books from other online stores directly to their

ARCHOS and read them using Aldiko?

If the format is the open standard .epub

format, it will work by dropping it into

the “Import” folder of the Aldiko

application. Many Google™ Books

(books.google.com) are also available in

the .epub format.

Are there other eBook Reader options?

Yes, there are also the apps WattPad

and AVcomics. The apps for Amazon

and Barns & Nobels book stores should

be available soon on AppsLib.

What do I do if an app gets stuck or functions incorrectly?

Your application may need to be

updated. Go to the AppsLib and tap on

the menu icon and then MyApps. It will

show you which of your apps have

updates that can be downloaded. If

updating your application does not help

the problem, you could try uninstalling

the application (use the Uninstall app

found in the applications tab) and then

reinstall it from AppsLib.

Can users download games from outside of the Appslib store to play on

their device ex: Flash™-based games?

The internet tablets currently do not

play .swf format files (Flash™-based

games). When version 2.2 of Android™

becomes available for the ARCHOS

internet tablets, this will allow you to

play on-line Flash™ games.

Internet

Why can’t I view web sites that have Flash™ video or Flash™ games?

When the update to Android™ Froyo

(version 2.2) is available, you can

update your ARCHOS device to this

version of Android™ and it will have the

Flash™ 10.1 player included which will

allow you to play Flash™ video content

and Flash™ games on the web.

What kind of performance can users expect via USB or Bluetooth®

tethering? Page 5 / 14

Using the internet is swift when

tethering with a 3G phone. Depending

on your telecom’s access speed, using

the Internet via your 3G phone will be

no different than using it via a WiFi

connection.

Can the devices connect to 3G dongles via USB?

Not for the moment. However, you can

connect your phone for tethering via

the USB host port (optional USB host

cable required).

Will the ARCHOS internet tablets tether with 3G capable phones (USB or

Bluetooth®) to allow web access via my 3G phone?

Yes. Almost all 3G Bluetooth® phones

these days use the standard

Bluetooth™ profiles DUN or PAN. The

ARCHOS 28 model however, cannot

tether via Bluetooth® but only by USB.

Note that some telephones which have

3G and Bluetooth® (such as some

Blackberry devices) specifically do not

allow tethering. You can, of course,

tether the A28 to a phone that has WiFi

routing capabilities such as some

Android phones.

How do I tether the ARCHOS to my phone in order to get Internet

outside of WiFi areas?

After an initial setup of pairing your

phone to your ARCHOS, each time you

want to use the Internet, you just go to

the power control widget and turn on

Tethering. The ARCHOS will connect to

your phone (you might have to tap a

button on your phone to say “Yes” allow

the ARCHOS to connect) and use it as a

modem to connect to the Internet. See

the full user manual for exact step-by-

step instructions.

General

What version of Android™ is on the devices?

The ARCHOS devices were released

with version 2.1 known as “Eclair”. The

devices are updatable to the next

Android release version 2.2 known as

“Froyo”. Page 6 / 14

Why are the devices not Google certified?

Google requires devices to have a

specific hardware profile in order to be

certified. This includes having GPS,

compass, telephone, and specific

screen resolutions. Considering the

number of Android devices entering the

market, the great majority are not

certified. Google could of course change

their requirements.

How do the devices charge?

The A28, A32 and A43 charge via the

USB connector. The A70 and A101

charge via the included power

charger/adapter.

Why do I have to update my firmware?

Updates bring increased performance,

new features, and bug fixes. It is best to

update your device when it gives you

the possibility to do so. Make sure you

have the latest update so that you can

get all the benefits that each update

brings.

Why does my ARCHOS internet tablet only have Android 2.1 on it? How

can I get Android 2.2 onto it?

The ARCHOS update software will be

available in Q4 of 2010. When it is

available, you will be notified when you

connect your device to the Internet by

WiFi. At this point, follow the screen

instructions to download and install it

onto your device.

What is Android™?

It is the most popular open software

platform for portable devices. Games

and applications of all different types

are now available and new exciting

ones are yet to come due to its open

architecture.

What is different between this year’s and last year’s models?

This year there is a faster processor

inside the device and there are more

choices of screen size and resolutions.

Some devices have a tablet format

which include webcams. This year’s

devices run version 2.1 of Android and

will be updatable to version 2.2 when

that version becomes available. The

screens are very reactive and the larger

A70 and A101 models have capacitive

multi-touch screens.

What makes Android™ attractive?

Android has the development muscle of

Google. Android™ is open source. This

means hundreds of hardware

manufacturers can implement Android

without cost, which will drive this to

become the dominant mobile platform.

It is completely opened to software

developers without a central censoring

authority. The competing Apple library

of mobile applications is censored by a

group of employees that decide what

they think is appropriate and what is

not.

What Gen 7 accessories are compatible with the new internet tablets?

There are no accessories common to

the ARCHOS 5 internet tablet and the

new line of internet tablets (ARCHOS

28, ARCHOS 32, ARCHOS 43, ARCHOS

70, ARCHOS 101).

What is the battery life when WiFi is activated?

When the WiFi is activated, on a full

charge, you can surf the web for 6

hours (A28), 8 hours (A32), 12 hours

(A43), 10 hours (A70 and A101).

Can these devices connect to my television?

Yes, you can connect them to your TV.

You can see and do all the same things

you do on your device (videos, music,

internet, games). The ARCHOS 32 has a

composite video output (yellow RCA

cable) and the ARCHOS 43, 70, and 101

have an HDMI video output port

(optional standard mini-HDMI cable

required) which can output crystal clear

high definition images to your HD TV.

The ARCHOS 28 does not have video

output.

Connect it to its power charger/adapter

(ARCHOS 70, 101) or a running

computer with the USB cable (ARCHOS

28, 32, 43)and allow it to charge until

the battery light on the side of the

device blinks (this could take several

hours).

My Touchscreen isn’t working properly, what should I do?

You may need to re-calibrate your

touchscreen. There are 2 ways to do

this depending on how much access

you have with the un-calibrated

touchscreen.

ARCHOS down.

4. Put the device on a flat surface.

5. Tap on ‘Calibrate the touchscreen’.

The calibration of the touchscreen will

start. Do not touch the product until the

calibration is complete.

IMPORTANT: If you do not put the

device on a flat surface (e.g. Table), the

touchscreen calibration will not be

successful.

The touchscreen is now recalibrated.

My device “froze”. What do I do? How do I prevent that?

If your device freezes, press and hold

the power button for 15 seconds. This

will shut off the device. Restart as

normal. To prevent this, make sure you

are running the latest version of the

firmware. Check by going to Menu >

My Archos will not start to Android, it keeps restarting or showing a

black screen whenever I switch it on, what can I do?

If either in the settings or through an

app there has been a problem and you

can no longer get to the Android

interface to do a factory reset, then you

can do a full update and recovery of the

system through Recovery Mode.
