Additionally, they opened for the Veronicas in early 2006. For their first album, titled It's About Time, the band collaborated with several writers, including Adam Schlesinger (Fountains of Wayne), Michael Mangini (Joss Stone), Desmond Child (Aerosmith, Bon Jovi), Billy Mann (Destiny's Child, Jessica Simpson) and Steve Greenberg. The album was initially supposed to be released in February 2006, but was pushed back several times, due to executive changes at Sony (the parent company of Columbia) and the executives' desire to have "another lead single" on the album. For the album, the Jonas Brothers covered two hit songs by UK band Busted – "Year 3000" and "What I Go to School For". The Jonas Brothers' first single, "Mandy", was released on December 27, 2005. Its music video was shown on MTV's Total Request Live on February 22, 2006, and reached number four. Another song, "Time for Me to Fly", was released on the Aquamarine soundtrack, also in February. In March, "Mandy" was featured in the Nickelodeon television film Zoey 101: Spring Break-Up and the Zoey 101: Music Mix soundtrack album, with Nicholas Jonas listed as the artist name. The group's music was also featured on Cartoon Network's Friday night programming block Fridays.
The band covered "Yo Ho (A Pirate's Life for Me)" from Pirates of the Caribbean for the Disneymania 4 album, released on April 4, 2006.{{Cite web |title=Disneymania, Vol. 4 > Overview |url={{AllMusic|class=album|id=r823795|pure_url=yes}} |access-date=August 29, 2008 |website=AllMusic}} Over the summer of 2006, the Jonas Brothers went on tour with Aly & AJ.

Because Sony was not interested in further promoting the band, the Jonas Brothers considered switching labels. On October 3, 2006, Nick's 2004 solo single, "Joy to the World (A Christmas Prayer)", was re-released on Joy to the World: The Ultimate Christmas Collection.{{Cite web |title=Joy to the World: The Ultimate Christmas Collection |url=http://www.worshipmusic.com/40462.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071224225020/http://www.worshipmusic.com/40462.html |archive-date=December 24, 2007 |access-date=September 1, 2008 |publisher=WorshipMusic.com}} The same month, the Jonas Brothers covered "Poor Unfortunate Souls" from The Little Mermaid.

Kevin added that, "The overall message is it's the same old Jonas Brothers, in a sense, but we're adding more and more music, including different musical instruments that are going to add and build to the sound we already have." Nick also said the songs on the album are "our journal in songs, about all things we've gone through, personal experiences we get inspiration from. We've also been working on trying to use metaphors.. to kind of mask a literal thing that happens to us.". Before the release of Lines, Vines and Trying Times, they released two singles, "Paranoid" (a month before) and "Fly with Me" (seven days before). Lines, Vines and Trying Times debuted at number one, thus becoming their second No. 1 album.{{Cite magazine |title=Artist Chart History |url={{BillboardURLbyName|artist=jonas brothers|chart=all}} |magazine=Billboard |access-date=July 3, 2009}}

In 2007, the brothers filmed a public service announcement raising awareness about teenage homelessness and encouraging teens to begin "jeans drives" in their communities to donate to the homeless. In 2010, Nick further volunteered his efforts for Do Something by offering his time as a prize to teens who donated jeans to Do Something and Aeropostale's "Teens for Jeans" campaign.{{Cite web |title=Donate Your Jeans and Win a Chance to Meet Nick Jonas! |url=http://www.j-14.com/posts/donate-your-jeans-and-win-a-chance-to-meet-nick-jonas-1727}} Further, Nick filmed another public service announcement, this one in support of Do Something's "Battle of the Bands" campaign for the advancement of music education in schools.
