[CalebPrice86]

I keep getting no device is found and I follow every step but still nothing... and I have windows vista and I dont know what to do.. somebody please message me about this

[ArnieBoy11]

i get what your saying but what website did you start off on

[All0ut]

would this work with mac?

[isidora118]

yes

[Herovue]

Why is mine keep saying "No Device Detected"? the setting in Services on Palm Novacom is on automatic started. Somehow it's not detecting my Pre. What am i missing?

[JULIEN2788]

me too i tried for the past week

[vastreets1]

I have tried do everything you said but i still cant get it to work. Is there a way for you to help me with this?

[Brandee621]

thanx for this..really helpful, but the portion where u say go to the start menu and type 'services' i notice tht u have Windows Vista and i have XP, so i don't see that option to type that in. I can just use the safely remove hardware function can't i?

[hotrock85]

i think so......

[JayCanuck]

Wow, nice vid. I'm the developer of WebOSQuickInstall. Glad to know people are using it :). A few minor notes: current version is 1.35 and SDK is no longer required. My app now downloads WebOSDoctor, and my app will attempt to install novacom itself. Oh, and I don't believe it's needed to stop the Novacom service.

[hotrock85]

good to know. Thanks alot Jay

[moe2889]

Will these apps come on to the app catalog?

[hotrock85]

probably not

[N0RELC0]

when i end my novacom will it start back up when i plug my pre back in or will i have to manually start it every time?

[hotrock85]

i start mine everytime but never tried not doing it

[imatt215]

cant wait

[N0RELC0]

alright ill just start it every time its not too hard to find thanks a lot once again for this video helped very much!

[hotrock85]

The new video video will be up Thursday by midnight

[imatt215]

wow this is amazing i just had to install java also in order for it to work! thanks

[gnoluvzcha2010]

this vid is the f*ckin best!!! soo easy.. lovn my new apps

[hotrock85]

HAHA got a video camera to work on the Pre and have an easier rooting method. subscribe to my videos so when I post the new video you know right away. The video with also show you a trick on how to get your battery to last for at least 3 days even with heavy use

[imatt215]

when are you going to post the new video.... im going crazy

[mecuellar623]

yes i also got error 1

[925ochoa1]

this is what it says.

ERROR 1

Connection Refused: connect

dont know what im doing wrong?

[925ochoa1]

how long is it suppose to take for it to know your device (setting up the web os)?

[hotrock85]

I got familiar and was able to do everything within a few days. just look up tips and tricks for Palm pre on google and it will show you how to do everything. or take into sprint and they can show you everything

[hotrock85]

If you are talking about how long it takes to set up homebrew apps? its instanteous

[fpstina]

thanks!

[hotrock85]

yep :)

[fushion999]

Ok i dont understand. I have installed new java, webos, and the other thing that comes with it. I also have the epk file or however it spelt and i dragged it into the webos quickinstall. But when i press instal nothing happens. I have my pre connected to computer by just charge as well. What do i do?!

[fushion999]

Apparently its a problem with novacom..

[CattWithHatt]

Is that true? Becuase I have been working on it and it is the novacom that doesn't work for me so do they just need to update it or something?

[fushion999]

dunno, but im having problem with the novacom as well...
