USB Mode
The Amp’d Mobile TM Jet phone supports three
types of USB modes:
• Plays4Sure - Music (MTP) mode allows
transfer of music files between devices.
• USB Drive - Mass storage mode allows you
to copy songs from your PC onto your
removable TransFlash or microSD. Your
Amp’d Mobile
TM Jet will automatically detect
when your phone requires a specific
USB mode.
• COM Mode mode supports hands free kits.
Note: Do not remove the TransFlash card or USB
cable while transferring files.
1. Using the supplied USB cable, connect your
Amp’d Mobile
TM Jet phone to a target
device, such as a laptop or desktop
computer.
2. The type of device to which you have
connected your phone will determine what
mode the phone automatically is set to:
• Connection to a PC with a TransFlash
card inserted defaults to
Plays4Sure mode.
• Connection to a PC without a TransFlash
card inserted defaults to COM Mode.
• Connection to a device that does not
support MTP
defaults to
USB Drive mode.
Setting the USB mode
You can set the USB Mode to connect via a
specific mode:
1. Select Menu → Settings → USB Mode and
choose from:
• Plays4Sure
• USB Drive
• COM Mode
2. Press the Amp’d/OK key to select.
Note: If you insert the TransFlash card while the
phone is operating in Modem/COM
mode, you will not automatically be
switched to Music or Mass Storage mode.
You must select the new mode manually,
or disconnect and reconnect the
USB cable.
Mac Support on your Amp’d
Mobile
TM Jet phone
Due to incompatibilities with Microsoft Media
Player’s digital rights management (DRM),
support for dual-downloading is not available on
the Macintosh platform. Because of this, songs
purchased from Amp’d Live
TM can be played on
your phone but not on the Macintosh. Amp’d
Mobile
TM is currently working to implement full
iTunes support for Amp’d Mobile TM Jet phones.
In the interim, Mac users can connect to the
phone as a USB drive and "side-load" music and
photos directly from their iTunes and iPhoto
libraries. Using this method, it is also possible to
transfer sensitive files or other documents you
want to keep with you. Essentially, your phone
becomes a portable data drive.
