Question New User - Hello Community

Hi,
I am fairly new to Palm Pre and though that I would book the thing up and see what can be done with this little baby, as it stands at the moment my Pre is currently restoring using the WebOSDoctor software as I want to start from a clean slate.

What the best way to move forward? the next thing for me is to install Preware but after that the amount of patches just seems like a mine field.

Anyone give me a few essential tweaks, patches or overclocking..

Many Thanks

Scott

Welcome to Precentral. Your life will never be the same. With Preware, Webosqi, and Internalz you will have just about everything you need to truly personalize your phone. On the patches, I would read descriptions and see how you want to customize your phone. You will see this community is very helpful all you have to do is search first then ask any questions you might have.

read the 'getting started' threads in each subforum. Read a lot. Then dive in to preware. Amazing stuff.

Hey Scott,

Welcome! Here's another great link to check out:

http://www.precentral.net/your-top-p...pc-brain-trust

That's a list of the most popular patches. Make sure you check out the comments on that page too.

Your best bet is probably to use your phone as is for a bit and just sort of notice what you feel is missing from particular apps or from the phone in general. Chances are there's already a patch that will fix it for you.
