Hello MrTasselhof

I have bought a Ramos W6HD and received two weeks ago - there are now about 4 owners near here in spain. Great machine. A friend helped us to upgrade the firmware to ICS 4.03 and enable access to Android market following your instructions - Thank you very much for all your work and help on the Ramos.

The problem i have is that i have messed-up the security log in big time and am now locked out. The screen states 'Too many pattern attempts!' To unlock, sign in with your Google account'

The Ramos will not accept my Google Account information - presumably because i am not on-line as i am locked out !!

I have tried the 'reset' but this only goes blank and then reverts to the same screen as described above

Is there another way to reset to the factory default other than pressing the reset button that does not work

Any help / advice would be much appreciated

Tonytimber - very frustrated and depressed!!

i know something about pattern lock (i dont know if this is similar to ics) DON'T USE IT

now you must find a way to bypass it (you must search it , is a common android problem)
one solution i found (with a quick search), for older android version propabbly, is type your email and for pass type null (yes type null)

Thanks very much for your suggestion but unfortunately did not work entering 'null' as p/w
will continue search for a solution -friends? have suggested my name should be not tonytimber but 'thick as a plank'

Can someone tell me how exactly do I update my Ramos W6HD to version 2012112?

Download and extract it. But don't extract "update.zip". Copy all of them (about 5 files) including update.zip to your SDCARD without Directory (\SDCARD) then shut your ramos down. Start your ramos by press and hold Power and "M" button and wait until the green droid appear. It will update your ramos firmware, just wait until restart.

Why? If the new 20120203 better. On the site there are instructions for installation.

Ive tried 112 and 115 and neither work for me. :-(

I just got the W6HD and it has build version 20120203 on it with no working Android market and it will not detect on board storage memory. Is there a newer version or do i have to downgrade to a older build to get this fixed? If so where do i get the older version at?

I think the battery size you are reporting is inaccurate. I mean no offense, just based on research the majority of resellers say the battery is only 3300 mAh and the very short video playback time (2-3 hours I think you said?) would tend to reinforce this. I just started doing research on this device hardcore today as I have a larger client trying to decide between this one and a couple other models. I came across this thread (and the product description on merimobiles) and noticed that there is a 300mAh bump in battery size in both compared to the majority of other sites I have looked at. I know that doesn't sound like much but it does make a difference in playback.

Cheers,

Roman

EDIT: I also looked at that link comparing it to the Paladin. I have no idea where that person doing the review got their info but there is no way in hades that the Paladin has a 7000mAh battery. That is so wrong it is almost laughable. I would expect it has maybe a 4000mAh battery... maybe. Probably closer to 3700mAh which is what Ainol is using in all their newer devices.

hi,
what is your average baetty life in mix use (web, game, video...)?

[Ninja_Mogglet]

Hello Folks,

Please be gentle and kind, I'm a "Old" Newbie...

I was just about to order Ainol Novo 7 Elf, then I found the Ramos W6HD and W19.
I can see the paper specifications are somewhat different, but real life usage?

Can anybody please comment on how Ramos is?
- Construction?
- How easy to upgrade/re-flash
- Any other useful comments?

Being older, I need to spend my money wisely.

Many Thanks
David

I can watch about 3-4 hours of video on a single charge, depending on screen brightness, and that's with wifi enabled. Gaming can eat through it a bit faster if I'm playing something somewhat graphic-heavy like Angry Birds. If I'm using it for general web browsing off and on throughout the day, I can usually go without charging for a day or so. If I'm just using it for ebooks, I usually turn off wifi and I can easily get a full day of casual reading. I usually plug it in overnight anyways, so as to not worry about it dieing on me. On standby, it lasts forever. I'm actually really impressed with the battery life overall, especially considering the price if the tablet.

Hope that helps
