Best Treo Software For 700p

[xbrianxlorenzo]

Am anxious to hear. I have volumecare pro, handzipper, filez, ringo, destaller, and xiino.

LEDoff and SOUNDoff do not work on my 700p.

What else can I use with it that works??

Every time I download a zip or prc file to my 700p, Handzipper says it was sucessful, but the app is nowhere on my Treo or the SD card. I was able to do this on my Treo 600 easily. What's going on?

I tried Zlauncher on my 700p and it doesn't work well at all, I dont a an icon for phone signal and when I press my home icon it goes to the original palm menu not zlauncher. Maybe im doing something wrong.

Here's a link to a thread at MTDN which is like a ZL tutorial. I believe it'll get you straight. Also, ZZTechs, the developers, maintain a forum on that site.

In keeping with the title of this thread, the paid apps (and some free) that I use that have been updated to work with the 700p:

2Day, today-type home screen, giving status on calendar, calls, tasks, email, notifications on missed events, with plugins for other apps (QuickNews, weather using 4cast)

4cast, weather monitoring using Yahoo weather, can be viewed via plugin in 2Day, DateBk or ZLauncher

Agendus Mail, Iambic's mail app, (though I've stopped using it)

Agendus Premier, excellent PIM manager (i.e. contacts, calendar)

BackupMan, a device-based backup app (though I've stopped using it)

Butler, alarms, LED control, attention-getter (nagging)

ChatterEmail (email app, does pop3 and IMAP, the latter very well, very well supported)

Directory Assistant (freeware), phone book-type lookup, directions, maps

FlightStatus (freeware), just that...arrival/departure/in-flight info in real time

Google Maps (freeware), excellent mapping/driving direction/look-up app

LightwavPro, ringtone manager, full-screen caller ID, call-blocking

mobileClock, alarms, stopwatch

NoahPro (freeware), excellent dictionary with 2 size databases to choose from

palmPDF (freeware), allows viewing of .pdf files (IMO, better than DTG)

PDANet, allows you to use your 700p to get online with your computer

pocketTunes Deluxe, the top-of-the-line version of the standard app

RescoBackup, a backup app, allowing scheduled backups, full/selective
restores, also restores java files

UninstallManager, an app that monitors newly-installed apps, grouping all files associated with/created by that app, and deletes them all if you decide to get rid of that particular ap

volumeCare, boosts headset, speaker, handset volume (Deluxe also does
ringtones, apps)

ZLauncher, excellent, customizable launcher, with an excellent file manager

(I also use Diddlebug, HandyShopper, Splash ID & Money and TCPMP but the versions that were used on the 650 have been stable on my 700p)

EDIT: I've made a couple changes to my apps since originally posting this and I've captured most of them in my post. I've also added descriptions and links which might make it a little easier for new members.

EDIT: I no longer use HandyShopper, as Agendus now allows "notes" (lists that you can check as you complete) to be added to tasks

Some of the apps I used on the Treo 700w I returned also have versions for the Treo 700p and a quick email to the developers resulted in reg codes for the POS versions. Saved me money. Here is what I have installed.

Agendus Pro - Not convinced its the best out there
Bejeweled - came on the Freebie CD

Explode Arena

Have you taken the time to read the documentation with ZLauncher? Sounds like you have not. I use it and have used it on my Sprint Treo 650 & 700p - it works well. Ben
