Cingular users, rejoice! (Maybe.) Treo650 patch 1.17

A Cingular-specific patch to the Flash ROM in Treo 650s is now available for free download.

I've iinstalled it, and although InstallShield crashed after the end of the process, the Treo seems to be working OK (which is an improvement over the version 1.15 patch).

More follows....

Jump page: Cingular Treo 650 patch, version 1.17

Patch features are said to include:

A new version (3.1c) of VersaMail with an updated Mail Service (ISP) list

Gmail attachment download support via the standard Blazer web browser

Bluetooth performance improvements for some Motorola headsets and other car kits

Voice quality enhancements

Better memory handling (when compared to version 1.15)

Auto-off power settings broken by the 1.15 patch are fixed

Audible beep indicates call initiation failures

Longer runtime by automatically turning off screen after 30 seconds of a call (power savings? YMMV, based on how you use it) To turn the display back on at any time, tap the screen. Do not press the red Power/End button, unless you want to end the call. The screen-off feature applies to handset mode only, not speakerphone or headset modes.

All the fixes from version 1.15, plus revisions to Windows apps:

Documents To Go ver. 7.0.0.5
Handmark PocketExpress ver.1.3 r1254
Zap!2016 ver. 1059

and, a free serial-locked copy of SplashShopper (as if we all didn't already use HandyShopper freeware, with its awesome YahooGroups community...)


Your Intrepid Reporter will advise if the patch side effects are as hilarious as the fallout from version 1.15 was. But, so far, it ain't done blown up, no hair loss or bleeding gums, which is a significant improvement over 1.15.
