HTC Desire : Way To Importing Data From Palm Treo?
Oct 16, 2010
I've use Palm since the Palm Pilot 1000 a 128k PDA & various other since. My data is current in both Palm Desktop (5 Star PIM) and Treo 650. I am interesting in importing Contacts and Memo's into the Android 2.1 phone (HTC Desire) and the info spread among a dozen or so groups. I don't want to use the Cloud or Googles cloud tools. I hate Outlook as a PIM and don't believe it will handle the groups anyway. But more importantly I don't want my data in Outlook nor do I want its info or mail in my Android phone. With Palm as a PDA and Smartphone originator in this field I would have expected much better support to import data. BB Curves Desktop does it seamlessly since I tested that 2 years ago. Android phones don't even have a default memo app. Is someone asleep at the switch their?

I've been largely pleased with the Droid after about 12 years using Palm devices. The exception is the inability to easily, quickly import the 550+ Memos I've authored over the years. Plenty of apps will import one huge memo, but none will import a csv file of ALL the memos. This includes OI Note. Does anyone have any experience successfully importing such a large number of memos without having to extensively edit? Or ideally, edit at all?

I added Note Everything, Lite version, and tried to import memoes from my Palm TX. I created a file "full memo.mpa" on my SD card. When I open the Palm Memo import option in Note Everything it finds the file but then tries parsing the file as an Outlook Import. It never completes just continually says Parsing file... I do note that if I use Astro to read my SD card it shows the file association the be "Music" i.e. a music icon?? If I tap the file the Music App opens?

I have been using a Palm PDA for more than 15 years and have a mountain of Data in there that I don't want to lose when I buy my next, more advanced Cell/PDA system. My first choice for a new device is the GooglePhone2.
1) Does GPhone2 have all the features I want = Addresses, Memos, Calendar and ToDo/Tasks?
2) If yes, can someone direct me to a link where I can transfer all my Palm Data to a GPhone2 if/when I buy it?

Getting the evo on Friday - want to move my long history of palm data over. Any best recommendations would be appreciated - want contacts, datebook, memos and ideally ewallet (will contact them) to convert. Will buy a program if worth it.

Just got a new HTC Desire and it is absolutely wonderful. Still getting to grips with it, and enjoying the forum for all the hints, tips and tricks. I do have a query though - although I have followed the quick start instructions, I cannot import my contacts from my old SIM card. And now, my old SIM card is not playing in my old phone (SE C905) so can't try to send them as a vcard via bluetooth.

Is there a way we can import threaded sms messages from an Iphone to HTC desire. Have also converted the SMS from iphone to a txt file. The SMS backup and restore software for HTC desire needs an XML file to restore.
Haven't tried restoring from a TXT file though. Wanted to know if there's an easier method around?

I have had the Treo 755p for 2+ years now. Time to upgrade and I am going to get the Incredible. What is the best way to get my contacts from the Treo to the Incredible? Should I just have VZ transfer them in store or is there a better method? Also, is there a way to get all of my calendar events from one device to the other?

I have a few ringtones that were recorded on my Treo that I would love to pull onto the G1. I found the PDB files. Anybody know how I can convert them to on a PC? I tried changing file extensions and opening with Audacity, but with no luck.

My DI is arriving tomorrow. I use g-mail so it should be easy to get my g-mail contacts. My contacts on my Treo are not the same as my g-mail contacts. I do not want to waste a trip to the VZW store to have them do it for me. I have my Treo contacts synced with my PC. Is it easy to transfer them to the DI and if so, how?

Had a Treo 755p & LOVED my calendar! Just got a Droid and I HATE Google Calendar. I can't believe such great company hasn't listened to the users (look at all the posted all over the web!) and altered it to have color coded categories in ONE calendar. I'm really torn about the fun apps vs. the calendar I LOVED (tasks and notes were better too). I'm still within my 30 days, so unless I can find a 30-day color coded calendar view, I may just take it back. Has anyone found an app that works like the Palm calendar?

I am attempting to take the text messages from my old Treo into my new Hero(Sprint). So far I have gotten as far as being able to pull the texts out into a csv and/or xml file via a Jeyo application. Is it possible to somehow get these text messages recognized as real texts via the Hero?

I have used Palm for years. I have over 500 contacts on my 755p. I will not get a Droid if I have to manually transfer all of my contacts. What are my options regarding transfering contacts from my 755p to the Droid? Can VZ do this in store or is there an easier or more effective method?

I just signed up for these forums because soon I will be an HTC Desire owner in Canada. Having never owned a smartphone before I do have a few questions. The plan I intend on signing up for is the Telus Student 40 and that will come with only 100mb of data. Now I don't see myself being too data using heavy so I feel like I will be able to live with it. However I do have some questions regarding my data consumption.
1. Is it possible to completely stop all data usage by somehow disabling the data connection if I find myself reaching my limit?
2. What are ways to track my data usage to make sure I don't use too much data?
3. What are good ways to conserve data usage? I'm getting the feeling that there are some applications that will constantly be sending data back and forth updating themselves, is it possible to have these applications but stop them from constantly updating and only have them update when I want to access the application?.........

If "always on mobile data" is disabled, will this have any affect on programs that are set to auto sync with back ground data enabled(Face book, twitter etc)? I'm trying to work it out but lots of people say different things?

My friend just lost his Desire at an airport. The pattern lock is active, but that does nothing but protect the data on the phone - Not SD. The first thing they would do is to switch the phone off and replace the sim.
Now here is my question : Is there an app that will send an sms to a preallocated number if the phone is booted up with a different sim? I know some Samsung phones can do this. But having an app that requires your own sim to be able to find it if stolen is quite pointless.

Is the palm pre charger compatible with the evo? I forgot my charger at work and the only charger that I have at home is for the palm pre. The plug fits in the evo and light turns on when charging so it should work right?

Getting a Hero next month and from an initial search on the web their doesn't seem to be an easy way to port over calendar and contacts from my centro to the Hero. Looks like it can be done (I don't use outlook) but just wondered if there were any easy tools, e.g., Sprite, that work for the old Palm OS.

I have gotten tired of waiting for palm to get with the program and create a new 3g phone for at&t got lured into hero and like it but am having trouble transitioning. I have done the sync with google and have all my memos under contacts and my contacts are a mess. I know if i put in the time and clean it up. It will be helpful howerver, i'm missing epocrates, my todo list, the accessibility to enter txt into the calendar without going thru so many steps. so many things about palm that were intuitive and easy are not so easy and require so many more steps on the hero. The same problem i had with iphone. My question: any one else found an easy way to transition between palm and hero? Any tips or advice on how to make things easier apps for to do lists that have similar notifications as they were on palm. Anything to have the best of both worlds?

In anticipation of a new HTC Incredible soon, I opened a gmail account. I have exported 12 years of calendar, thousands of contacts, notes, and tasks from a PC palm desktop. It created a .dba file, which gmail does not recognize. How can i convert it to .csv or whatever? I was able to easily import ~1000 contacts from my Mac address book.

This is a big issue for me, so I hope somebody has a fix. I have one Google calendar. When I sync only the last 2 months show all events. Past that, only a few events show up here & there. I've heard of this problem before but never had a sync issue with my Palm Pre. Imagine that. Can anyone list the steps to correct this, if possible.

I am embarrassed to say, for my calendar, I have been using a Palm TungstenC! I have been loving my new Incredible, but I haven't figured out how to upload my Palm calendar to my phone. It will only export in a .dba file ("date book archive"). I tried changing the file name to .csv, to see if that would work, but no... Trying to export/import .dba to Google Calendar.

Is there an app for multi-tasking like Palm Pre for Android? Or, is this being developed; coming in future Android versions? Not really that good but it was developed for iPhone and it was a great.
