Hi how to get the ROM images for palm os emulator?

same question - pleae help guys! really need it

Thanks,
Tom.

Do you want the standard ROMs, or do you want to download them off your device?

The standard ones are here: http://www.accessdevnet.com/index.php?option=com_docman&task=cat_view&gid=62&Itemid=33 . You need to log in to download them.

i've been trying to download the rom off my device, but everytime it gets 13% complete, the device does a hard reset.

it's a palm tungsten t|x running garnet 5.4.

anyone else run up against this? i'm attached to the computer via the usb port. should i just buy a serial cradle? i'd rather not, but if i need it to work...

Why do you need your TX Rom? if you are going to use it in the Palm OS Emulator or simulator it won't work because the TX OS runs on an ARM processor, and neither of the 2 emulate one (The uses the ROM files complied from source to run on your computers processor, and I never heard of the Palm OS Emulators "ARM Ref" actually working)

Also I don't think USB has anything to do with the fact that it is not sending the ROM, other people tried a hacked ROM Transfer Wizard that sends the ROM directly to the card, and it would still crash. I don't know if its OS 5 thats the culprit or NVFS thats preventing the ROM from being downloaded. So I don't think getting a serial cable is worth it...

okay, so how do i emulate the tx for a development environment? i don't want to write something and just put it on my tx.

this probably doesn't fit in this thread anymore, huh?

Palm has a simulator that acts like the TX. You first have to register at PDN (Palm developer network) here: https://pdnet.palm.com/wps/portal/pdnet/developers then download the TX simulator. Unfortunately, there is still no ARM emulator in this one.

If you need to use ARM, you're ARM code is going to have to be compiled as a .dll file (with the Palm OS compiler), and that .dll will go into the folder your simulator is in, and you will also get a prc file containing other resources like forums, alerts, and 68k code, and it will be installed into the simulator.

I don't know how to configure the Palm OS compiler to compile as a DLL, but if your app is 68k only you should be fine.
