  • ok when downloading the doctor it has sprint, bell something, and emulator. i have a verizon phone so what do i select?

  • if yours saying error device not found which was really really pissing me off one time I just let it sit all plugged in with webos on about 20 minutes I was afk and I noticed it found the device so dont count on it that it will work but it worked for me

  • what do u click if u have the verizon palm

  • I had the same problems as alot of you.

    Solution:

    get.preware (.org/)

    Download PrewareInstaller-1.5.0.jar

  • for those who need webOs Doctor:

    Go here

    webos-internals (.org/wiki/Webos_Doctor_Versio­ns#Download_links

    And go to version 1.4.5

  • 1) Hold your breath.

    2) Copy all of these steps.

    3) Go to two other video.

    4) Paste it in the comments.

    If you can do all of this without breathing you're a good pot smoke

  • my pre is connected but it says: ERROR: No device detected

  • You have to install novacom. to do so in webosinstall click file, options. then (re)installation novacom.

  • when i put my pre in developer mode it wont come back on. help please

  • I have two questions.

    1) Does my Pre have to be jailbroken or something to install Preware?

    2) The installation showed a step where you have to choose the network operator of your Pre, i.e. Sprint in this case. My Pre will be on the UK network O2. Will O2 be supported in this installation process?

    Thank you and I look forward to your answers.

  • Try to reattempt the download process. If it doesnt pop up then open quickinstall and go to file options and re(install) NovaCom.

  • very well detailed step by step instructions. kuddos

  • Mine says "Error no device detected"

  • You will get this if you don't have Novacom installed or if you don't have developer mode on. To get Novacom go to file, options. Then you need to click Attempt Novacom (re)installation. That should fix your problem.
