Woohoo! The Quest finally works for me where it didn't before. Great Palm game!! Now I'll check Legacy and see if it works. I'm crossing my fingers but I'm betting it works as well.

I wonder if EDGE will run on the new Garnet version....

I didn't spend much effort at it but would be very grateful if you were to help me get this new version work as GVM was one of the main factors in my buying an n81p (even if it was used).
I have quite a few dollars invested in Palm apps from my NX70V Clie that I would be very happy to use once again including a couple hundred dolllars in ebooks and ereader.The biggest thing I ran into was my reg code kept getting denied.

First off, setting Garnet VM to 64 megs was bad advice. The hell did you suggest that for bun? :D

64 megs will take a huge chunk out of your internal memory, initial loading time will be huge and the possibility of it becoming corrupted would worry anyone.

8 megs should be fine.

I hotsynced about 50 Skyscape med apps that total 700 megs on my SD card and still have over 4 megs left within Garnet.

If you know what you're doing, this emulator is amazing. If not, you'll be pulling out your hair like bun did a year ago. *lol*

Garnet generates two different device numbers for your tablet. One when starting Garnet VM and another if you go straight to the Garnet launcher (suggested).

Ether of these two device numbers aren't going to match your old Palm handheld and that's why your reg codes won't work.

I might have time on Friday night to help out but I'm by no means a specialist.

Best people to talk with would be in the following order:
Palmleavr
Javispedro
TA-T3
qwerty12
DFinch
Pushwall
bunanson
then me at the bottom. :)

[QUOTE=bunanson;393021]I would like to know more about doing banking with the Garnet VM. TIA,

Oh, Sorry. Looks like I overspoke, or mispoke here. Guess my joy got me a bit carried away!:rolleyes:
Garnet doesn't really aid with my internet banking. I can do that on my N800 as is, but I truly need GVM to access Splash ID, without which I cannot get access to my bank accounts. I have all of my passwords to Everything in Splash ID, which is but one of the things that make GVM sooo important, to me! Sorry if my previous statement misled.:o

anybody have trouble waiting on the email with link from Garnet?
I sent off a request last night and didn't see anything come in the in box so I tried again just now. I assume this is an automated process and not something that is processed by a person?

OK, got it working...

Now at some point I could use help with the reg codes.

Other issues/questions:This may seem like I am complaining, but really just looking to see if anyone else has overcome any of these issues.

Has anyone been able to do anything with the portrait/landscape issue and allowing for fullscreen? In Ereader for example, I cannot get a combination of Landscape in fullscreen. I chose the TX setting for device hoping that it would allow for fullscreen. Not to mention the resolution is extremely poor. I realize the two devices are very different in their resolution so I guess I shouldn't expect much. Has anyone tried the fontsmoothing app to remedy this?

That's enough for now, will have more later!
