All About Treo 755p - Lets Discuss The Good And The Bad

Recommended Posts

Dear Rimwebians,

I have searched and researched the world and the web on various OS phones. Palm OS is a wonderful, efficient and fast interface. But to feel the actual real experience and ease of handling, installation of 3rd party applications is mandatory. Moreover, the handset gives unmatched voice quality and constant network presence. No calldrop even in single network bar. Soft call connect never fails. Thanks to EVDO-the latest in CDMA worldwide. Data bandwith is lightning speed.

The only drawback i feel is the battery standby and talktime. Talktime of 3 hrs is max. CDMA network will drain any mobile phone battery due to cellsite overpowering. EVDO based implemenation can further bring down battery charge. Those using the handheld as a data gizmo will find it hard to carry on till evening. The solution is using Seidieo extended battery for Treo 755p, the 2100mah fits perfectly in the battery compartment, giving 30% of more talktime. A Seidieo 3200mah battery for Treo can last for 9 hrs talktime and 2 days of standby, it comes with an extended battery cover included as the hi capacity battery will be bigger.

Blazer is an average browser, not comparable to Opera S60V3 or Opera 9.5 Windows Mobile. Blazer stops midway while browsing. Xiino 3rd party browser is worse. It is very difficult to install Operamini on Treo 755p, because Palm has stopped supporting IBM java websphere so no java midlets. And even if all this is installed, only 1 in 100 work.

Ringtones come bundled with wavs and midi. Mp3 software need to be put in. Ringtone quality is below average. Need to comprise bitrate and sampling as per this handset.

Update to latest firmware is very important to avoid crash and soft reset.

Palm has no support in India, forget Treo 755p. Haahaah Palm is already in Windows, other OS comming soon. Its better than HTC, LG, Nokia 6275 or Spice 1111(new CDMA Pda), or LG 10000 brew based phones.

Once the network parameters are set, network logged in, number active, its hassle free till one intends to change the handset as support for RUIM or handset change is not available.

Can set MP3 ringtones only from mini sd card. Using Hotsync is not required at all even for applications installation. Beware, the data cable costs Rs 800 and the charger costs Rs 500, the battery around Rs 1000. So use it with utmost care.

continued..

The Treo 755p dosent support DUN on Bluesoleil or any othe DUN. It has to be interfaced thru Hotsync. Serial connect to link the pda via ppp is also not easy. To use the laptop's or PC's internet shared connection is not friendly. A2DP is not available on 755p, but possible with softick ppp. The dosnt have sms delivery report option. It has thread sms so one can link past msgs frm a particular sender.if the LED blinks constantly, it will run dwn the battery. Using power hero, one can swith off the key lights and reduce the screen brightness so a 15% rise in battery. SkinUI and Takephone are best addons for appearence change. Other bulky skins will reset on call. Network connect by power vision takes a few attempts. There are 39000 palm hacks and application available. palm OS 3rd party applications are not available on any wap sites. Phone dosnt warm up thats the biggest plus! If Reliance will incorporate true EVDO, the Treo 755p will deliver supersonic speed of 1.4Mbps aka mobile broadband. There are 100s of 3G-EVDO high end handsets availble abroad. Most run on IS95B and CDMA2000 which are compatible in India. Hope to live with the best!!

There are 1051 positive reviews published on the net on Treo 755p. Palm and Sprint/Verizon are one of the most trusted cellcoms of US. Their technology ought to be the best in the sphere. If one intends to retain the 755p for a while and enjoy the goodies, this is it. Not advisible to spend more mullahs during unsteady convergence markets. All the best to all all. Happy New Year.

no point taliking about evdo as v will never get it here.

since v dont have evdo so on 1RTT network the battery life is around 4-4.5hrs ....if u use bluetooth for talking u should get 3-3.5hrs of talktime

It is very difficult to install Operamini on Treo 755p, because Palm has stopped supporting IBM java websphere so no java midlets

u can install jvm on your device and then can install latest version of opera mini 4.1 and it works much better than blazer

Ringtone quality is below average. Need to comprise bitrate and sampling as per this handset.

it is much better than other ppcs that i have used ....also it is much louder if u use volume care it is even louder than my n95

Can set MP3 ringtones only from mini sd card. Using Hotsync is not required at all even for applications installation

though u can install application from sd card also but it is advisable to hotysnc the applications

Once the network parameters are set, network logged in, number active, its hassle free till one intends to change the handset as support for RUIM or handset change is not available.

when r a member of this gr8 forum theres no need to worry about this

The Treo 755p dosent support DUN on Bluesoleil or any othe DUN. It has to be interfaced thru Hotsync. Serial connect to link the pda via ppp is also not easy. To use the laptop's or PC's internet shared connection is not friendly. A2DP is not available on 755p, but possible with softick ppp. The dosnt have sms delivery report option

treo supports both dun and reverse dun all neccessary softwares regarding same have been posted before.......serial connect to link pda via ppp is the most easiest to .i would advise not use softick ppp if u want2 stay away from troubles

read through the entire thread and you will find how amazing the device is

palm OS 3rd party applications are not available on any wap sites

Dear Deepak,

Saddik Bhai is your best bet. Send him a message with details of your problem. You can even post the exact problem in detail on the forum.

And Dr Mufaddal, thanks for the Call Rec - many thanks again.

@deepak

You have to be specific if u want a specific answer, because saying that my Treo is not working is a very vague question. Was it working when u received it from Sadikk? If so, what did u do that it stopped working. Be specific so that ur problem can be identified...

@hritik

Its always better to upgrade to 1.07, though I dont know about stability part. Follow the instructions on Palm site and upgrade by the Mini Sd card method. Its simple and u will be done in no time...
