Petkatan Studio

After using my Pre 2 for 7 months, upgraded from 2.0 to 2.0.1 and finally to 2.1. Somehow my Pre 2 seems to be behaving weirdly, could be due to some patches. Therefore, it is time for me to do a fresh wipe to factory-mode except I will be using 2.1 ROM. Things to take note, if you are not using an original HP/Palm battery, you will not be able to go into webOS Doctor mode. I have spent 2 hours+ with HP/Palm Support Care. At the end of the 2.5 hours session, my Profile was not able to be restored as it requires a Specialist to do so. Looks like a callback is required to solve this issue.

After deliberating on the tools - Enyo/Eclipse, PhoneGap, NetBean, I have decided to move with Enyo/Eclipse. After downloading the following, I have installed all of these via GDebi Package Installer - Oracle VirtualBox 4.0.12 (since no report of issue on this version of VB) - Oracle Java Runtime Engine 6 - Novacom Then run palm-emulator at the command-prompt, a new Virtual environment is produced. Now I am a proud owner of a virtual TouchPad. TouchPad emulator running under VirtualBox 4.0.12 with scale mode set.

Pretty awesome, Where Am I has 1,258 downloads. How I wish this is a $1 for each download. It is time to do app that will earn some dollars. You can get Where Am I from HP App Catalog

Awesome, my webOS app (Where Am I) has reached a download of 321 (as of June 23, 2011). Throughout the development of this app, 1 thing comes to my mind - simplicity. You can get Where Am I from HP App Catalog

Finally, I have released Where Am I app and you can find it in HP App Catalog If you are living in a non-activated country, please do send me an email and I will give you the IPK file which you can use Internalz to install into your webOS 2.0 and above.

Kind of awesome to be able to connect my Samsung Blu-ray BD-C5500 to my TV and stream from an internet connection of a PC. This means you can connect any device which support IPv4. I am still hoping that IPv6 will not come in and make all my devices obsolete. If you are keen to try, you will definitely need a player with built-in Ethernet. The wireless dongle and wireless player cost more, so if you have limited budget, this is 1 of the options. PC Windows configuration (it can be a Linux/MAC): Start up your PC with wireless network and share its connection with a Local Area Network (LAN). In a normal Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) connection, Windows will default whichever connection you have selected. Normally, the default IP Address of the LAN TCP/IPv4 will be 192.168.0.1 with 255.255.255.0 as its subnet mask. Get a cross network cable and connect 1 end to your PC and the other to the player. Blu-ray player configuration: Start up the player and go to Settings. Select

Since not many users using webOS in NZ, perhaps it is time to do up a Live Traffic Camera app for webOS. I have requested for permission from NZTA, but still no news. Anyway, not going to wait for them since I know someone has developed an Android version. Here you go, start-up another project and this is the 1st few screenshots of the app.
