He tried to achieve church reform through revival of the Council of Basel. His goals included struggling for uniting all European peoples against the advancing Ottomans. Jamometić graduated at the Padua University. In the 1476–84 period Jamometić was titular Archbishop of the diocese in Krajina (near Skadar lake).
