But the WR script is designed to work on all WR devices... Quote:
(as HP/Palm only released webOS 2.1.0 for O2 and SFR)... but it works fine on all versions of Pre/PrePlus... |

Hey guys,
GREAT WORK!! Verizon Pre+ wifi only installed and working, although a little sluggish (I expected that though). My question is, how do I install UberKernel once the 2.2.4 build is up and running? I installed Preware and looked for it, but it only shows kernels for the Pre2 and Pre3. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I really never want to doctor back to 1.4.5.  Thanks again. You guys are awesome! |

Installing the Kernel image package thru PreWare/WOSQI works, but alters the Kernel modules needed for webOS 2.2.4 D.A.R.E. File System and will corrupt it over time from my and other trials. If you want more details please let me know and I can assist you... |

WebOS Doctor Versions - WebOS Internals Attempt the stock HP/Palm webOS 2.1.0 build 285 first and if that one does not work try build 284, if they do not work then one would have to find their model number and use a meta doctor script to modify the models. |

Hey John, I have a few questions I've been having which are making me very reluctant to upgrade on my Pre+/ATT
I've read through the thread remotely and was wondering what the chances of profile corruption are, if paid applications are available from my 1.4.5 purchases, etc. How seamless is a transition from a heavily invested 1.4.5 profile to a new 2.1/2.2.4 profile? What are the percentages of this severely causing other issues, server side? Is the only added benefit flash essentially? Any help to push me onto 2.x and not 1.4.5 would be greatly appreciated.

Why or Why not...
Quote:
My profile went from 1.3.5,1.3.5.1,1.4.0,1.4.5,2.1.0,2.2.4.... Never had one issue... Besides when I went from 2.2.4 back to 2.1.0 for testing.... I recommend 2.1.0, not 2.2.4, unless you want to deal with freezes and lockup's (even with my Franken kernel)... |

I was also aware of the jvm stuff, just not the features of 2.1.0. I often smack friends with that little bit of info when they say I'm nuts for using a webos device still. When I ask 'which did you have' and they reply original pre/pixi, I inform them of the various issues surrounding the failure. Including the replacement of mercer's 'it takes five lines of code to center text' vm in the original nova project. What are the main differences, feature wise, that will gear me up to the transition to 2.1.0? Not the same question, but awefully vague and similar. For example I know the Just Type! Exists in 2.x but technically something else with 1.x. Paid application support does exist I take it? Never saw you directly answer it. If you did, sorry for overlooking it  . I have supported our developers by continuing to buy their software on a defunct catalog, I don't mind doing it again, but I'd like to know if the transisition will force it due to it being meta-doctored.Speed and performance should increase in stock 2.x when I upgrade, as opposed to 1.4.5 was in stock, correct? My pre+ is heavily patched and also runs overclocked at 748 with my UberSaver profile, and is fairly responsive. Mainly I want to have as little issue as possible if I am to upgrade. Also, is there a way to check application compatibility beforehand without going to each individual thing? I'd presume if it works on 1.4, it'll work on 2.1.0 surely. Also, the one big deciding factor: does the patch 'Advanced Configuration for app launcher' by sconix exist on 2.1.0? I simply cannot live without that patch, even if all else is a seamless transition. Thanks again for the baby steps, sorry if I'm overcomplicating this. I chose 1.4.5 on my old pixi, and that was a good idea. Not so sure if it's the same decision anymore with my newly acquired Pre+. -- Sent from my Palm Pre using Forums

Why or Why not part 2?

So if you buy a phone from someone who was in the EU and you bring it here in the USA and attempt to assign it to the USA it will be locked to the EU catalog (this can be forced to change outside of the phone). So the reason I did not answer is because it has nothing to do with webOS version. If you had paid access on your profile you will retain paid access (all of my apps purchased with webOS 1.4.5.x came down to 2.1.0/2.2.4)... Some exceptions were apps that are no longer available (some were only webOS 1.4.5.x, some were removed by developer)... The bigger thing is to back up your applications (from the media/crypto), so that if any apps are no longer available you have a copy of them before you device wipe. This is all a game of new vs old... is webOS 2.1.0 better? That is a personal answer, some like webOS 1.4.5.x better, some like webOS 2.x.x better... I like being at the best it can be, that is why I use webOS 2.2.4 (but it is unstable), being on Verizon even on webOS 2.1.0 one can get skype mobile working, so staying at webOS 2.1.0 is not a bad idea... But with AT&T I do not know the difference between webOS 1.4.5.x to webOS 2.1.0. What I will say is the look/feel of the OS is better on webOS 2.x then 1.4.5.x, but again that is a personal opinion, you might feel different. From stock apps, Just Type/Universal Seach, is the same just more functions with Apps... From HP/Palm: Version information ■Version: webOS 2.1.0 ■Release date: 7 March 2011 New applications Exhibition Application icon: ■ Exhibition gives you access to special applications that optimize use of the smartphone while it is placed on an HP Touchstone charging dock. The apps include Time (clock app), Photos (photo slide show), and Agenda (agenda view). ■ Exhibition turns on automatically when you place your smartphone on a Touchstone charging dock. When the smartphone is not on a charging dock, you can manually turn on Exhibition from the Launcher. Voice Dial Application icon: ■ You can dial contacts using your voice by launching the Voice Dial application. Voice dialing can also be initiated by pressing and holding the volume button at any time, or by tapping and holding on the Phone dial pad. Feature changes to existing applications Backup ■ Information backed up to your Palm profile now includes call history entries, text messages, and instant messages. Note that multimedia messages are not backed up. Bluetooth ■ This release offers support for Bluetooth keyboards. ■ If you download a music file that you received as an email attachment, the file name appears correctly after downloading. ■ Email messages containing multiple replies appear with the replies correctly separated and formatted. ■ This release fixes an issue where email message body text in POP email accounts was not being downloaded to the smartphone. Messaging ■ If you restore a Palm profile that includes one or more messaging accounts, the status icon showing your availability in Messaging appears correctly. Photos ■ Thumbnail images appear correctly for images in the Wallpapers album. Tasks ■ If you search for a task or a task list by typing the name, the search term can begin with a symbol. Security This release addresses a number of security issues with HP webOS software. Individuals interested in contacting Palm to report suspected security issues can find more information at palm.com/security . |

Is this still the case with that? This is essentially what I ment by 'Paid Applications'. Sorry for the confusion. If I won't encounter issues going back to 1.4.5 after creating a doctor for 2.1.0, I'll try it regardless. But if not, i'm kinda on the fencepost still and will look for a way to test it out in the emulator first. Edit: removed long quote. edit2: Ive got the meta doctor git repository and am currently building a 2.1.0 via ./scripts/meta-att-preplus-2.1.0. I should be using this one right? Also, will this particular script still report as 1.4.5 to the Palm servers, or is the wiki more out of date than your information.

Sorry for being such a pain again. In the time it takes me to wait for your reply, I've stumbled across numerous bits of information and the game of tag just further confuses the situation.
