Please post apps that you were NOT able to get to work under the Pre Classic emulator.

Here is the thread for apps that DO work...

I put all my old games in the virtual card folder. May have better luck for some if I put them up a level.

Anyway, here is what does not work:
Ancient Red (didn't work with POS5, but I'm hoping some of the older ones work)
PhonTuner
Galax
Defender 2
Joust
Spy Hunter
RB Tapper
Sinistar
Pac Man trial seems to almost display correctly, but I can't get the keyboard to work.

That's a pity about PhonTuner.

Hopefully it's only to do with microphone access, which will be fixed in an update?

I saw this in an review of Classic

"The upcoming version 1.1 of Classic should have more features and better compatibility when it comes out in a few weeks, according to MotionApps. The updated version is also supposed to work with many more apps. It should let you pinch-zoom, just as you can in the Pre's Web browser, so you can click on small interface elements. I'm told that it will also support sound, and that it will also have a way to let you easily drop PDB files into the right folders. Finally, it will let you dial phone numbers and send text messages from Palm OS apps, record sounds, and support Palm OS alarms. MotionApps doesn't have a release date for version 1.1 but says that it will be a free upgrade when it comes."

Hopefully that will be all PhonTuner needs to run...

TCPMP doesn't work

Bigchris · 06/07/2009, 10:21 AM

Tabers doesn't work..

ZenithNadir · 06/07/2009, 11:01 AM

Scrabble seemed to work but then got hung up on the computer's turn... probably bitter it was losing. The Pre reset (my first!).

ZenithNadir · 06/07/2009, 11:13 AM

new newness: after scrabble hung up the pre, i launched classic again and it re-crashed the pre. tried it once more, and classic re-imported my software and databases. launched nfl mobile to test it out too. classic froze. hit the center button jawn to go into card view... and i have a limitless supply of blank white cards! i can discard them, but they repopulate within seconds. i can re-arrange icons, call up the launcher, the ribbon, et cetera, but there's no actual functionality: the programs won't actually load.

the power button-ringer switch reset trick got it back up and running. time to delete stuff from classic!

ZenithNadir · 06/07/2009, 11:16 AM

it's official: USB modem will not work. when connected as 'media sync' or 'usb drive', you lose the ability to mess with the software. but even if you tell the pre 'just charging', usb modem gives the 'not connected to a computer, connect the usb cable' message.

alas and alack.

Visualfx · 06/07/2009, 11:39 AM

What about if you try to tether throuth bluetooth???

bitmage · 06/07/2009, 11:43 AM

Treomemo causes a blue screen on mine.

Synthe · 06/07/2009, 11:51 AM

Tried putting a few games from my Treo 700p on Classic, and my favorites didn't work, though one I only play rarely did.
Klondike and Freecell from ElectronHut, both bluescreen once you get past the title screen.
Monopoly from Handmark worked fine (will post in the Works thread also)

Korean display and input program does not work.
Both Diopen and KOSPI

tj0827 · 06/08/2009, 02:15 PM

Call Block does not work.

We need an WebOS CallBlock app!

backslide · 06/08/2009, 02:54 PM

BatteryGraph does not work.

Well ... it does work, it just doesn't track anything except showing that it's at 100% and that it's currently being charged when I don't have it plugged in.

dkotoric · 06/08/2009, 02:59 PM

SlingPlayer doesn't work, the screen just stays black but the app starts up and everything.

bobs01r6 · 06/08/2009, 08:04 PM

Bike or die does not work..

kafclown · 06/08/2009, 09:26 PM

Speed Dial is a no go-- apparently Classic doesn't know that it's hooked up to a phone yet.

aristarchus · 06/08/2009, 10:35 PM

PEPID doesn't work.

mthom99556 · 06/08/2009, 11:15 PM
