Taken care of with the old versions of UDMH
Program UDMH, of the brilliant Dimitry Grinberg, is hack that is able to use memory normal of the PDA to increase the dynamic memory available, necessary to execute great programs. It is necessary, for example, to play the Quake or the emulator of Super Nintendo. UDMH is a very stable program, still more considering that toquetea the operating system at very low levels.
UDMH obtains additional dynamic memory from the normal memory
But it is necessary to have well-taken care of with a detail: UDMH is a program that has been developing many years, and the old versions were thought logically to work in Palms with a older operating system. The consequence is that if we installed an old version of UDMH in our modern Palm (PalmOS 5) we can leave it completely unusable. This it is the email that I have received from a reader who had east problem:
[...] using the Doom, also installs the UMDH version 3 to increase the memory of the device and power to play it without problems and a day my Palm was congealed, appears to me the screen with the logo of Palm and a black bar in the part of above blinking, does not work any of the 8 reset q exist and already I abrí until it with a manual q lowers that way of Internet and it does not disconnect the battery to him, I do not work either, is equal.
In all the places q I have found service in Guadalajara to only suggest to change to him to the card mother me here q costs to me like 80 dollars but manpower, like 1000 pesos, seems to me something excessive since I only found out q it would be necessary to rewrite the ROM to him so that it works normally, although would lose my data, which worries to me is q the repair costs what a model like that used. [...]
It surprised to me to receive this email because I have happened through the same situation: I installed version 2.2 of UDMH in my Tungsten E2 at the time and the result was identical. In the end, I had to send it to repair to the technical service of Palm, which gave back it to me with a new plate. When being in guarantee the repair was gratuitous, but I was more of month and a half without being able to use it.
Conclusion: if you have a modern Palm (according to the page of Dimitry the recent versions of UDMH they work well in: Treo 600, Treo 650, Zire 31, Zire 71, Zire 72, T|AND, T|T, T|T2, T|T3, T|T5, iQue 3600, TG50, NX 80, and generally any thing with 5,4 PalmOS or superior) you unload and you use the most modern version of UDMH (of the 5 in future). Neither it is happened to you to install old versions the more (unless your Palm is the more old) if you do not want to be with an expensive tuna and posapapeles.

Hello
I remember that from tarjea SD installing a file that is called start.exe podia to recover something but nonmemory that was and if it reads the card before remaining pillaged.
That on the other hand huevonada or total ignorance than they take in hand that it is necessary to change to the plate mother instead of to initialize the ROM with any program that palm dispondra and that has not come to the light.
That it is not impossible, because since sabreis are several updates of palm (nonmemory if he were wifi or the one of the versamail) that updated the ROM, osseous that impossible not sera, the problem estara in knowing it.
A greeting
Hello,
considering the smaller problem not to change the card of palm, what would be the version of UDMH for a Tungsten E2? as it does not leave in the listing of gift Dimitry not I dare to install it.
If I understand well, program you hang the evitaria them for want of memory?
greetings
Ufff for that reason is important to document itself much on the matter before throwing itself to make things, still more if he is new a Palm user…
5,3 (I create completes version) the exelente one, is worth the pain to buy it, by the way there is a part of the UDMH where the application asks the user who as much of memory we needed and three pictures above not that….(show ...... K of dynamic memory 0 or blank of car)
that I manipulate as it or I form?
thanks to super page the bible of my T E2
@Rafa: you can execute a program when putting automatically card SD, renombrando it to “start.prc” and putting it in a specific directory. It is explained here. The problem is that if the Palm does not get to take this method it is not worth.
to @Javier: the program you hang avoids them caused so that all the dynamic memory of the Palm fills. He is something independent of the DbCache memory that gives problems with the Palm with NVFS. As far as the version, I have only seen that people have problems with the old versions; although also I have seen that the E2 does not leave in the list of compatible equipment, I do not know that to think; the E2 does not have anything special that makes it different from the other Palm.
@Jose Carlos: that configuration is so that the program secures a fixed amount of additional memory. You leave if it in “car” I believe it is that it obtaining according to is necessary.
Thanks Marks.
It seems that there will be to reinitiate it every day… as always (as you recommended in previous muuuchos post).
Greetings I add and me to the commentary of Jose Carlos: “thanks to super page the bible of my T E2 ″
Hello Marks.
I am another palmero more of the universe. I am thinking about retiring my old (and utilizadísima) zire 31 by a t|x, and I see that in the list that you put about the UDMH it does not appear east model. In addition I have read in some sites about palms t|xs died by it to have installed (although I do not know if one has been old versions of the program). In fact I believe that there are some users of palm who for this reason have it sworn to dimitry.
Sabeis if there is total compatibility already with the T|X?
UDMH installed in the TX (it completes version) working perfect and without problems. Greetings.
They hear one preguntota, I have listened to much of which the TE2 can be disturbed to use this program, is certain or been only an evil use of the program when exaggerating the parameters that can be moved
Christ, as I said in post, I installed version 2.2 in my E2 and had to send it to repair to Palm. With a version over the 5 he will not pass that.
