Install palm os on treo 750

A touchscreen means there's also a stylus, which I find relatively disappointing. Palm decided to shave some weight here, so it's mostly plastic. Strangely, there's an ever-so-subtle creak when you bend the stylus - I'm at a loss to explain either why the creak is there or why it bothers me so much. Of course, the uses the same universal connector we've all grown to love, so if you already have a Treo or at least a Treo made since the , your chargers and cables will be compatible.

Rounding up the specs, we find Bluetooth 1. In point of fact, the only functional difference between the 's bluetooth and bluetooth 2. Range, compatibility, and audio quality are all good. Up until about a month ago, I've defended Palm's decision to not include WiFi support in their Treos.

No more. Yes, I understand that WiFi is a significant drain on battery life. I also understand that WM5's WiFi implementation leaves much to be desired. But let's face it, folks, it's become the standard for high-end devices. It's dead-simple to just turn WiFi off to preserve battery life. I also do not believe it's really an issue of form-factor, either. Admittedly, these devices have absolutely horrendous battery life, but they still seem to be selling just fine.

My hunch is that the biggest hurdle right now is that the PalmOS, in its current Garnet incarnation, still isn't able to easily handle both a cellular radio and a WiFi radio.

Before you start updating your Palm Treo v, there are a few mandatory rules for this update to run correctly. First of all, be connected to a correct wifi network and not to your mobile networks since the update may take a while and you may see the consumption of your mobile networks skyrocket.

Finally, your Palm Treo v cannot be used during the software update so leave it next to you. Once you have gathered all these elements, you can now start the Android update on your Palm Treo v. Though the Treo's square screen doesn't offer the perfect aspect ratio for video playback, video does playback very well thanks to an ATI graphics accelerator. Average speed: Data Rate: 1. Frame Rate: 24fps Orig.

Those are excellent benchmark results and they beat the Treo w and wx by 3x! For you non-geeks, what does this mean? The Treo does a great job of playing video and it isn't just a warmed over Treo w.

We've already covered some of Palm's customizations and additions, but let's review the standard Windows Mobile software offerings for those who aren't Pocket PC aficionados. Outlook on the PDA has calendar, contacts, tasks, notes and email, which you can sync to a Windows desktop running Outlook. Palm adds their popular threaded SMS application, a wired car kit manager, Keyguard lock the Treo's buttons with an option to disable the touch screen when in a call , Sounds an easy way to add ringtones , a Windows desktop Bluetooth plugin, and a Wireless Manager to control the phone and Bluetooth radios.

The Treo is compatible with TeleNav a subscription navigation service billed by Cingular. Those of you who've read our Treo series reviews know that we were not fans of the 1. Happily, the Treo takes much improved images that have good color saturation, not too much noise even low-light indoor shots are decent, such as the cat photo below and generally correct color balance.

We don't know if Palm changed the actual camera hardware, lens or simply improved image processing but the Treo undeniably takes better photos than our in-house Treo p as well as the Treo w and wx. The Treo can take photos at a maximum of x pixels and supports a variety of lower resolutions suitable for MMS, email and Caller ID photos. It has normal, burst and timer modes and offers 2x digital zoom. There are three image quality settings and you can tell the Treo to save photos to a miniSD card.

There are no special effects or other settings since the Treo actually uses Microsoft's Pictures and Videos application a standard component of Windows Mobile 5 as a camera application.

The Treo can shoot video with audio in 3GP format at a surprisingly high 30fps. Videos have good color and are very smooth thanks to the high recording frame rate, though they are somewhat blocky. You can turn off audio recording, set resolution to either x CIF or x and specify recording length 15 seconds, 30 seconds or unlimited.

Past Treo models had famously poor Bluetooth range except the Treo and sometimes iffy status on DUN dial up networking. The Treo has absolutely normal Bluetooth range by phone standards, fully supports handsfree profile features and has DUN.

The Treo has a Bluetooth 1. It played well with our test headsets and a Motorola portable car kit. We noted it got better range with our beloved Plantronics Discovery that headset doesn't have good range than other phones we've tested.

Overall audio quality over Bluetooth for mono and stereo solutions was very good. Since the Treo and have been on a size and weight reduction plan, the Treo uses a mAh Lithium Ion battery, down from the sizeable 1, mAh battery used in older Palm Treo smartphones.

Thus with moderate use, we had to charge the Treo every other day push email was not on. If you use push email from 8am to 6pm, expect to charge the Treo nightly or every 1. The Treo ships with a compact world charger v and you will need to take it on the road since it doesn't support USB charging Palm and 3rd party sync n' charge cables for the Treo we tested will only sync, not charge.
