Re: palm/gvm browsers?

Am I missing something? I have tried a couple apps that download data from the internet via usb cable with my T3. But when I try it using GVM I get a DNS error. I can't find any network setting in the preferences either. How can I connect in GVM using the N800's WIFI?

Thanks.

For example:

MegaLauncher and Agendus can get weather and quote updates on its today screen if it has an internet connection.

How do you get GVM to recognize the Nokia network?

Re: palm/gvm browsers?

I think I answered my own question. Up until this point I had been unable to access the internet in GVM. I installed Xiino and it found the web without any config. At the same time other apps, including my alternate browsers can now also access.

Good post for the Xiino solution. Thanks.

All one has to do is to copy, by whatever means you can, .prc to the SD card, \Palm\Launcher, and the app will run, no need for gvm installation...well, most of the time. Thank you zehjotkah. Two exceptions, if the app requires data dl from a server or requires a particular library, one still have to do installation via gvm. However, most of the apps, if it is a stand-alone.prc, you can just go! WOW. And of course, they would NOT wipe-out on a crash.

A little bit recap for the totally uninitiated, or for my own sake if I have to follow myself in the future :)

To create SD cards slots,

mkdir ~/.gvm/cards #only have do it once
echo -e "/media/mmc1\nRW" > ~/.gvm/cards/0 #SD-1
echo -e "/media/mmc1\nRW" > ~/.gvm/cards/1 #SD-2 and etc
echo -e "/media/mmc1\nRW" > ~/.gvm/cards/2
echo -e "/media/mmc1\nRW" > ~/.gvm/cards/3
echo -e "/media/mmc1\nRW" > ~/.gvm/cards/4
echo -e "/media/mmc1\nRW" > ~/.gvm/cards/5
echo -e "/media/mmc1\nRW" > ~/.gvm/cards/6
echo -e "/media/mmc1\nRW" > ~/.gvm/cards/7

I think you can have upto 8 SD cards, I am using SD-1 and SD-2 and they work beautifully.

Once the cards are created, I use Zlauncher to assess them.

Bun,

What advantage is there in having more than one SD slot?
