Default ***!!READ THIS FIRST!!*** Welcome to the Homebrew Apps Section!

See either of these articles for instructions on how to install homebrew apps:
To Install from Your Computer
Getting Started: Homebrew Apps, Patches, and Themes with WebOS Quick Install

To Install from Your Phone
Preware Guide to download directly to your Pre or Pixi without using a USB cable.

Please post for help or questions in the forums:

Welcome to the Homebrew Apps Section of PreCentral.net! There are a few things you need to know before you get going:

1. All apps are provided AS IS and PreCentral.net does not warrant that they will work, work properly, or hurt your device. PreCentral.net is not responsible for anything that happens to your Pre as a result of the software you download here.

2. Only a developer may create a new thread - one thread per app please. If you're interested in getting permission to create threads/ post apps, simply contact us on our form and select "Developer Access" - http://www.precentral.net/contact. Be sure to include your username in your message . Please don't send in a request unless you have an app to post, though! You don't need to ask for Dev Access to get the apps here, "Dev access" is simply to allow people to create new threads and post apps.

3. Please include as much information as possible in the first post, including updates, installation instructions, etc. We also want to keep a 1 app : 1 thread ratio. You also must attach your app to the first post in the thread.

4. The title of your thread is NOW your Application name only, we are in the process of slowly changing over old titles to remove dates and versions, you guys won't need to do anything there. Developers will be able to post to the Homebrew v2 Gallery mentioned in the HOW TO guide up top.

The graying out of previous log updates but maintaining all information is excellent for archiving purposes; please note you should add the date for each revision release. This helps us when a user can see if they are up to date with their version.

5. The web-os.internals team has added an excellent point, and so, can all current devs please go into your initial posts and add this information:

Quote:
Can we please change the instructions for new threads here to have authors clearly state the licensing conditions for their new app in the first post in the thread?

Examples:

"This application is licensed under the GPL"

"This application is licensed using the MIT license"

"This application is in the public domain"

"This application is available for free, but cannot be redistributed, and the source code is not open source"

"This application is not open source, and you need to give a donation to see the latest preview version"

-- Rod
Orange + Tap should delete the app, but your mileage may vary.

If you need to change your email or password, go to http://www.precentral.net/user , log in, and click the edit tab.

Other questions? Post 'em here.
