How to install Notes, Voice recorder and the launcher on your Treo
The Treo smartphones are some very complete. However, holders of echaréis least some applications that are installed by default on other Palm, and that for some reason were not included in the Treo. I refer to Notes (Notepad), the program that allows you to save drawings in a show of hands with the stylus, Voice Notes (Voice Memo) to record audio through the microphone, and Launcher (Launcher), which allows a fund to screen application launcher.


Applications Notes and Voice Notes
The files and installation instructions from a post that SAP made at the forum PdaExpertos. You can download it from that forum, although I have a copy on my server in case you cease to be available:
- Note Pad_2.3-LifeDrive_ROM.zip
- Note Pad_2.3-LifeDrive_SIM.zip
- Voice Memo_1.3.1-LifeDrive_ROM.zip
- Voice Memo_1.3.1-LifeDrive_SIM.zip
The steps are as follows:
- Download these files, decompress and copy the files you need (see below) to the SD card for Palm, preferably in a directory other than the "\ Palm \ Launcher". To do this we need a program that gives access to the SD card, or use a card reader. We will not be worth installing the files directly by hotsync, it is necessary to do what I say, copied to the SD.



Moving files to the SD memory with Filez
- Once we have the files on the SD, we use Filez to copy them to main memory. Another alternative method is to directly transfer files via infrared, if we have another team with IrDa port from which send them.
As we saw when we installed on a Palm Files that do not bring the factory to install an application need to copy two files: the principal (eg "NotePad.prc"), and support for the program for our language (eg "NotePad_esES. prc "for Spanish). In the downloads above are included in the files to install these programs not only in Spanish but in English (inuse), French (frFR), German (deDé), Italian (itIT) and Portuguese (ptBR).
With this in mind, the files needed to install the programs in Spanish are:
- For Notes (Notepad): CompressionPng.prc, CompressionZlib.prc, and Pad.prc Note Note Pad_esES.prc.
- For Voice Notes (VoiceMemo): VoicePad-Vpad.prc, and VoicePad-Vpad_esES.prc.
- For Launcher: Launcher.prc and Launcher_esES.prc.
So we already have available on the Treo as useful tools in the other PDAs it to the default. If you have a problem with the installation, I recommend you read the thread of the forum PDAExpertos and two of TecnoPalm.

Wow this is very interesting ... well ... Greetings.
Thanks Edison, we should always take advantage as much as possible every Palm, but what I'm going to run you
Hello follow your directions but to run it on the pal tells me that (can not run the application lack of location information.?) I can do now to execute them.?
Greetings
Thank you
Good, which is the difference between the SIM and ROM files? put the 2? thanks!
I missed a lot of minus NOTES
I think we need to install the two normally, although in the original equipment were in different locations. To see if you are going well
Thank you,
I looked Pad_2.3 Note that the file-LifeDrive_ROM.zip has less Pad_2.3 Note that the file-LifeDrive_SIM.zip and that there were repeated. installing only the second ... I SIM.zip has worked.
Thank you very much!
Bad foot, when you record a note restarts the Treo xD
although I am full of crap, you should do a good format
even so thanks for the manual
It turns out that the first files zlib compression and PNG were errors in resetting the Treo (which I spent my)
in this thread, at post number 16 must file compression needed to work on the Treo650 and in my case, the 680, no longer soft resets.
