Title: Treo650
Post by waynecook on May 12^th, 2005, 8:04pm

This is a great program but due to a failure of my Treo270, I will be forced to upgrade to a Treo650.
Does VDI work with this model and can VDI read data from the memory card

Given that there were posts about problems with Treo 600 it is likely that it won't run on 650. The memory cards are supported on the standard Palm OS devices. If you get the 650 please try VDI and let me know the results.

I have tried the Treo 650 - I get the error message "No Bitmap loaded' - and a warning "Error loading bitmap data" - sometimes it reboots

This is really disappointing - I have been searching for the perfect image viewer for quite a while and was quite happy that I found yours - it seemed to do the things I was looking for.

Is this problem fixable? If not, do you have any recommendations of other image viewers that are as capable

Thanks in advance - Charlie

After many attempts with VDIV with my Treo650 I could not stop the program from rebooting the Palm. So I relunctantly looked for a replacement. In the end I decided on Grxview - it has completely zoomable functionality and the program can be loaded on an SD card (along with its images). It was not free - I think it cost $15 dollars but given that this also included a card export program that allows you to upload to or download from the card I think it was a good buy

I do see that the old debug version of the app is
rebooting Treo650 simulator. The new version that
is in development now seem to have some problems
with display color depth switching to 256 color mode
but runs OK.
Although this is a good sign it is not a guarantee that
the new version is going to work on the real Treo650
hardware. If any of you guys is willing to volunteer to
do a test run, post a note here and I'll send you a test
version of the viewer (PRC file) to the e-mail you
used to register on the forum.

Dear Denis
I am happy to try it out on my Treo650 - it has had the file structure updated by the latest Treo upgrade and also has a memory card so we can see how it works with these

Regards
Wayne

Denis,

I too would like to beta test the viewer on my Treo 650 if the offer is still open

Thanks

Dear Denis:

I would also like to try it if it is still available and newer than 1.8a. I love VDI and my treo650 as well! :)

I haven't had time to work on the app for a while,
so the 1.8a is the latest one available. It should
work on Treo650 though. Pls let me know if it doesn't.

Hi Danis:

I use V1.81a to view subway maps. It works OK in the RAM. However, when run it on the SD card (/Palm/Launcher/) in my Cingular Treo650/1.17, it got one bug:

When I browing a picture and press the Home bottom to back to launcher, it reset my Treo650. However, If I choose [File]-->[Close viewer] first, and then press Home, it does not rest my Treo.

Thanks a lot for your time and attention!

Thanks for letting me know about the problem.
I'll try to fix this when get a chance to debug with
Treo650.
