The Ultimate Treo 650

Finally, after a lot of time and effort, I have a Treo 650 that is fully customized and optimized.

Thanks be to the various boards such as TreoCentral, etc.

My Unlocked GSM Treo 650 is now:

a) Having a stripped ROM (5.8Mb) consisting of:
  • Treo650-1.20-ENA
  • Extra languages (excepting English) removed
  • QuickTour, Realplayer, Versamail, WorldClock, various _Tips files removed
  • FAT32 support added
  • SDHC support added
b) Having max RAM of 23.4M (Of which 12.1M used); thanks to the of an alternate RomUpdaterApp that creates ROM with size of only 7.1Mb (Instead of 8.4Mb as normal for a Unlocked GSM Treo 650), which means that my RAM is upped by 1.1Mb

c) Having more Carrier compatibility with CarrierDB version 355

d) Way more stable with DBCache levels at: Max: 13Mb+, Average: 10Mb+, Autoflush: 7Mb+

The software that I carry on my Treo includes:

RAM:
BlueFTP: A part of the RescoExplorer Suite; allows my phone to become a BlueTooth FTP server
DocumentsToGo
RescoExplorer 2009
FileMan: A quick and limited capability (When compared to RescoExplorer) file manager
Gizmo: Java based IM client
iSilo: Document reader and much more
Keyring: Secure storage of passwords and related information
LinkStart: Handles launching of off-line (SD card) applications
MoTwit: MobileTwitter, posts updates to twitter via the Web
mRing: for Random MP3 ringtones
mVoice: for recording of all calls
