Do I need to uninstall Govnah before installing the new software?

Before installing the webOS update? No.

my update app just hangs lately. Doesn't even give me the ghost application update thing that it always did... Anyone else get this?

The ghost application update issue won't go away as it is tied to your profile. I think it a majority of people will have this at some point. The only way to get rid of it is to reinstall the app that your Palm profile thinks is still installed on your device - and then uninstall it again. If you don't know what the offending app is, you can contact HardBeatz and ask him to check for you.

I've given up on trying to fix this. I think it's something broken in the profile system, and until that's changed we'll just be living with it. Anyways, I just use the update function within the App Catalog. It's just as quick, and it gives me a chance to check on new apps at the same time.

I have the issue too and gave up on fixing it because the offending app causing my issue is no longer available. Oh well... outside of being a minor annoyance it doesn't affect anything.

Last Sprint update mine did the same thing. I popped the battery and when the phone came back on I got the update right away. Hopefully you guys are in luck today!

You don't need to do a full battery pop, just do a soft-restart via holding down the power button. Yes, essentially you're doing the same thing, but w/o having to take the cover off...

HardBeatz told me that they are working to address the issue in an upcoming webos release (obviously not 1.4.5) but that it will be fixed. I had him help me find 2 apps that were doing the same and was able to fix it. Then I doctored to 1.4.5 and it is back again and fixing those 2 apps I did before no longer fixes it, it definitely is one big mess.. I just give up until the fix.

Just chillen here on the coast of florida. Nothing in the update app, catalog still down. I expect end of night for the update.

Have you tried deleting your installHistory.db file from /var/palm/data/com.palm.appInstallService/?

Might be an easy fix, it works to fix the "Phantom App" issue in the App Catalog update screen, it may just fix the issue in the Update App as well.

Wouldn't this get deleted with the Doctor? I just performed that the other night...

I believe 271 is the build for the Pixi, 299 is for the pre.

You are looking at the Pixi update page. If you look at the Pre update page it is the same still.

I would think so, but if you have Internalz it would only take a few taps and a reboot to find out if it helps. haha

I don't have that issue, so I can't try it myself.

You are correct. I logged out of my Sprint account and searched and it came up with Pixi, instead of Pre.

Seriously??? "Pathetic"??? The release was done weeks ago, and there were some issues discovered. Palm went back to the labs and reworked the update, then sent it to the carriers.

All of this in the midst of a corporate takeover and all the "fun" that details. Yeah, there's something "pathetic" going on here, but I don't really think it's Palm...

So, this means that bug problem has being resovled and i dont need that emergency Fstab Fixer?

Well, not so much; but then, I don't think I said anything related to Fstab Fixer...

[sinime]

My doctored 1.4.5 Pre shows Build 297.... If this new release isn't 1.4.5.1 instead of 1.4.5, I wonder if the build # will flag my Pre for the OTA update? I may be visiting the doctor again soon... Oh well, price you pay for waiting, getting impatient and forcing an update early.

[joedisaster]

not too worried about the ghost app thing I just update apps through the catalog but the last week or so I don't even get that, it just hangs, spinning. I tried a battery pull to no effect. I'll just wait and see if I can get 1.4.5.1.1.1.1 when it comes out. Idk if overclocking may effect that?
