RemoveFP
Version 3.0b1

About RemoveFP:
JackFlash is not compatible with files that have been stored in
Flash by FlashPro or InstallPro. InstallPro is used by a few
companies to move their software into Flash during installation.
The current examples of this are: OmniSky, BackupBuddy Software,
and Palm devices purchased with Hebrew support preinstalled.
RemoveFP allows you to move these files to RAM, and configure the
Palm so that it can be used by JackFlash. Software originally
installed by InstallPro or FlashPro will continue to work correctly
after being moved to RAM.
When to Use RemoveFP:
If JackFlash indicates that it has detected FlashPro on your device,
then you will need to run RemoveFP. It will only be necessary
to use this utility once.
How to Use RemoveFP:
Use the Install Tool to install RemoveFP.prc on your Palm. After
starting RemoveFP, it will indicate the steps necessary to restore
your Palm. Tap "Remove FlashPro" to start the process. After
confirming that FlashPro is installed, RemoveFP will show you a
list of files that are currently in Flash. These files will be
moved to RAM. You must approve this list before the removal begins.
After the files have been moved to RAM and FlashPro support
has been removed, RemoveFP will display a dialog telling you
to reset your Palm. Once the Palm has been reset, you will need
to perform one more HotSync in order to backup the files that
have been moved to RAM.
After this HotSync is complete, you can safely delete RemoveFP from
your Palm, and start using JackFlash.
OmniSky Users:
If you already have JackFlash on your device and you want to install
or upgrade OmniSky, you will need to follow this process:
1. Move all files in Flash to RAM
2. Perform the "Release Flash" command in JackFlash
3. Install the OmniSky software
4. Run RemoveFP
5. Run JackFlash and move files back to Flash.
Items which OmniSky had moved to Flash are safe to run in RAM. They
do not need to be moved back to Flash by JackFlash.
Please read all the documentation and the software license before using
this software.
