Palm Pixi Hangs

I just got my Pixi and it has hung once per day every day now. This is similar to the Pre hangs I've read where you have to pop the battery (or it seems there may be a key combo I can use to reboot--I'll try on next hang), which makes me think it's software. If this phone didn't hang constantly I would love it, but if this is the quality of webOS, I have to return the device. Am I missing something?

Ok, it hung again today. I was doing nothing with the phone (it was in my pocket and hung sometime between 11:30 am and 12:10 pm), the last thing I did with my phone before 11:30 am was just press the power button to check the time (didn't unlock). I did, however, manage to reboot it without pulling the battery (pressing the power button and flipping the ringer silence switch worked). That is at least a good thing. Here is my hang history to the best of my knowledge:
1) hung overnight on 12/4, phone was charging and not in use, i dont remember the last thing i did with it, black screen
2) hung midday while i was using the phone on 12/5, hung with whatever app was on screen, i can't remember
3) hung sometime in the day on 12/6, device was not in use, black screen
4) hung today (12/9), device was not in use, black screen, battery was at 35%

How do I install Firefox mobile to my Palm Pixie Pro?

I have a Palm Pixie Pro. I'd like to use firefox on my mobile. But it's not an iphone, blackberry nokia....... So how do I download it. I've used it on my desktop for many years.

There's no official version of Firefox for HP webOS phones like the Palm Pixi Pro. However, there is an unofficial experimental version here: http://www.fractalbrew.com/labs/prefox/
This is from an old project to bring Firefox to webOS. I don't know if it works on the Pixi Pro. The project needs more webOS developers in order to continue.

Streaming audio on Palm Pixi

Is it possible to listen to streaming audio from a website on the Palm Pixi? I tried to listen to live audio from a radio station website and it wouldn't play. Do I need to download a player?

Hello and welcome to the forums;
WebOS devices support streaming music from websites, as long as the station streams in a supported audio format: MP3, AAC, or AAC+.
When you try to stream the site, what happens? Do you get an error?

Bluetooth: Volume Issue (Palm Pixi, Hands Free Link Bluetooth)

Make/Model: Acura TL
Year: 2008
Carkit Model info (Manufacturer, firmware version, etc):
Details of problem: Call volume is so quiet you can't hear anything on bluetooth HFL (Hands Free Link)
webOS version:.4.5
Included in compatibility list:
Yesterday morning the built-in bluetooth on my car was working fine, then at lunch when I tried to use it it was impossible to hear the call. I checked the phone and the volume is turned up all the way, and the bluetooth HFL is working fine with my husband's phone, so the issue has to be with my Palm Pixi. I can hear the HFL commands and prompts without issue at a normal volume level (8-10) but to hear even a whisper of a conversation or even a ringtone I have to turn the volume up to about 40.
I've tried to search on my Pixi to see if there are any settings I can adjust or update, but haven't been able to find anything.
Anyone have suggestions about how to correct/address this issue?
Post relates to: Pixi p120eww (Sprint)

You have to go through the entire pairing process or can you just turn off Bluetooth and then turn it back on again, or go into the phone and select the car and they connect? If you are having to go through the pairing process again, it could be a problem with the vehicle. The iPhone uses the latest Bluetooth stack and it may be a problem with pairing with the vehicle system. Try contacting Honda/Acura and see if there are any firmware updates for the systems in the vehicle.

Connection between Palm Pixie Plus and Photosmart "wireless" printer.

I've had the palm Pixie Plus from Verizon...I was having no problems connecting to my laptops(2) and my Hewlett-Packerd Photosmart printer..until Palm Pixie Plus went into an update and now the printer does not communcate with the 2 laptops making it useless to us as a wireless. Neither Palm Pixie nor H/P printer can find a solution.
We've been on the phone with techs now for 4 days and countless cell phone minutes. Neither wants to accept blame. We've tried just about EVERYTHING.

HP Palm Pixi Plus Data Plan?

Does the Palm Pixi Plus use the same 29.99 unlimited data plan as Android/iOS/WP7? I'm wondering if I'll be able to keep my unlimited data plan when upgrading from my Pixi Plus to the Bionic in the future.

I'm pretty sure you can....I'm doing the same thing, except I'm using a Palm Pre Plus....

HP Palm Pixie -- Connecting/Viewing Internet Video Streaming

Is the Palm Pixie phone capable of connecting to the internet and watching website video Movie/Television Show video selections (or must I purchase the Palm Pixie Plus or greater models, to do so)? For example, connecting to:
http://www.hulu.com/ .... or
http://www.fastpasstv.ms/ .... or
http://www.1channel.ch/ .... or
http://www.tehcake.com/video/tvshows.html
Thank you, for the assistance and clarification.

IMHO, if your main interest is viewing video (I know Hulu won't work, not sure of the others), why are you choosing the smallest screen HP placed on a phone? :/

Palm Pixi Updates in 1xRTT Areas

I am trying to find a way to update the Palm Pixi in 1xRTT areas. My market does not have 3G and the nearest 3G market is 5 hours away. The local technician told me there is a software updater on the Palm Website but I cannot find anything here to help. I have several of these phones prompting us to update them and no way to update! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Palm Pixi (Sprint) Problems

I tried to get on Live Chat but it seems to be down. I will try to be both brief and detailed.
I got a Pixi just over a week ago. From the word go it seemed really sluggish. When I tap an app, the lighted icon sits there for at least 3 seconds and then the app delays further to load. If I have 2 apps loaded it gets almost unresponsive. I restored the Pixi with webOS Doctor and the problem is still persisting.
Does this sound like a hardware problem? Is there something else I can do to isolate whether it is S/W or H/W?
This question was solved.

Good luck. When you try to take them back, they will only replace them with a refurbished phone. I had my Palm Pixi two and a half weeks when the skin started peeling around the face. The store told me they could replace it but the one they got in (two weeks and a half weeks later) was peeling completely around the phone. The next one they got in looked good but I have to put it on speakerphone to hear the other person. They are sending another phone, supposedly to arrive tomorrow...but it will be another refurbished phone...wonder what will be broken on it????

Palm Pixi Sprint...

Not sure if this is in the correct forum so please move if needed.
I'm looking at purchasing a Palm Pixi Sprint but live in the UK. The seller mentioned something about being able to flash a custom rom onto the device, allowing it to work on any UK network. Could someone please confirm wether this is possible or not, obviously I don't want to go through with the purchase if, when it gets to the UK, I've got no way of using it!
Thanks in advance, Lee!

Hello Leeriley, Welcome to the Palm Support Community.
Just an FYI, this is not a "live chat", but a Forum comprised of other users like yourself, volunteer Moderators, and the occasional Palm CSR. Many times, when you post a question and don't received an immediate reply it's because:
1. Your question hasn't been read yet by anyone.
2. It has been read, but no one knows the answer to your question!
In my case, I fall into the #2 position. I can only say "Caveat Emptor" due to what you're trying to do is not supported by Palm Inc., and I doubt your phone be warranteed should something go wrong with it!

Lost the Touchscreen Features on Palm Pixi

Good HP Support colleagues,
I have lost the Touch screen capability on my Palm Pixi device. I have tried to reset back to factory settings as advised through this forum and am now presented with Just Restart or Erase All Data and I am unable to get past this screen given the inability to touchscreen either command. Is it a case that my device is doomed? Welcome a response to confirm or deny and what the next course of action is? thanks in advance
Post relates to: Pre p100ueu (O2)

Try pressing the following keys at the same time:
Opt - Sym - R
This should initiate a restart.
Another way to restart is pressing and holding the Power button, then slide the ringer switch back and forth 3 times.
These are covered in a sticky post at the top of this section of the forum entitled "WebOS Key Combinations"

ETF on Palm Pixi

Hello, first of all I would like to apologize if this question has been asked before, though I haven't been able to find anything on this in the search,
I own a Palm Pixi. I am wanting to end my contract early to go on another persons contract (Keep in mind that I am on a Family Share Plan, but not the primary), and was wondering how much the ETF would be to opt out early. I got the phone back in July when it was free with a new two year contract. I saw two different prices, the $175, and the $350 so I just need to know which I am under.
Thank you,
- SlipperyNutt.

If the account you're joining is NOT a VzW account (read: changing carriers), your ETF would be $350 minus $10 for each month of service since you got your Pixi. You'll be billed through the remainder of your current bill cycle (it WILL NOT prorate your final month of service, you're paying for the whole thing)
If the account you're joining is another VzW account, you don't have to pay any ETF, just call customer service, ask them to authorize an Assumption of Liability to grant permission for the other person to take over your line. Once you've done that, have them call 1(888)832-4540 to complete the AoL. There's no charge for this, the new account owner inherits your existing number, device, contract, and upgrade date, and your account stops paying for the line the day it transfers, whereas their account starts paying for the line the same day (it prorates).

Can I still get a Palm Pixi Plus??

So if i am still able to get one then do i need a data package for it?

Thanks for the information ampidgeon. That's correct, Palm phones launched before a specific date do not require a data package. The phones that do not require and data package to activate, but use data and have the option of adding a data package are below:
--Palm Treo 600
--Palm Treo 650
--Palm Treo 700
--Palm Treo 755
Palm phones that need a data package of $29.99 or higher are listed below:
--Palm Centro
--Palm Pixi Plus
--Palm Pre 2
--Palm Pre Plus

Will firefox mobile ever be available for my Palm Pixie (1st generation) mobile phone?

Will firefox mobile ever be available for my Palm Pixie (1st generation) mobile phone?

Thanks dude. I wasn't terribly hopeful anyway. Looks like this never got off the ground and I doubt ever will. Palm is waaaay behind really, but the service plan I got with the phone was worth it. Peace, G
