Isn't that Steve Jobs?

Photo app seems a bit faster. Still takes 1-2 seconds to draw the "clear" version as you flip to a photo, which I think is a bit quicker, and viewing collections seems quicker.

i guess i might of jumped the gun when assuming my pre stopped responding after 20min.. but i dunno...

oh good...they finally enable you to turn off Data but the WiFi still shuts off when the phone is in idle.

aside from the auto zoom in text fields this update seems preety useless so far and I am left still waiting till feb. 12th when I will be eligible for a device upgrade!

Not sure what you are talking about with the slow loads of apps, mine is uber quick and no lag.

Agreed on the no video camera.

Done, and done!

I am all upgraded and... well, I'll play with it later on after work.

At least from my experience this will make a huge difference in battery life.

You can copy a photo from the internet now, so that is true.

i was looking for notifications/blinking light thing and it doesnt look like its included... unless i missed it.... anyone else?

Jawo · 09/28/2009, 03:34 PM

So just to make sure I understand the initial post, homebrew apps are NOT considered tweaks? So if all I have done is installed homebrew apps (via filecoaster) I shouldn't have to do anything before I upgrade to 1.2?

NOLApre · 09/28/2009, 03:35 PM

**sigh**

this update is useless.

minor speed update, we can now pay for non-existent apps (unless you've downloaded "too many"), included code (LED notifications) are still needlessly commented out, and requested tweaks already made by the homebrew community are still not included (Trash All, landscape in e-mail, etc.)

not happy, Palm. i'm giving it till Christmas.

Supposedly if you run the mytether installer again itll redownload the newer version. I had it installed on the leaked 1.2, but never checked to see if it acually worked....

Anyone else seeing this?

Yes. When I first opened updates it said asked if I would like to update to 1.2 and I said yes. The download failed and said could not connect. Now it says my phone is up to date and I am still running 1.1

placebo effect

there's no mention of any change to "roaming priorities"

budders · 09/28/2009, 03:36 PM

Sukiyaki · 09/28/2009, 03:37 PM

OH NOEZ!! The secret is out, the update broke your phone and now you can see the alien that brings up all the cards and makes the SWOOOOSH sound!! You have the only proof of palms evil conspiracy to take over the world by getting a palm pre into the hand of every consumer so that on D-DAY they can enter your brain through the earpiece. They know who you are!! They are coming for you!! Run!!

Yeah...I've been watching too much scifi..so sue me....
