Software update for unlocked GSM Treo 680 now available
January 17, 2008 – 8:31 am | by Azizi
After many many months, long-suffering owners of unlocked GSM versions of the Treo 680 can now download a firmware update for their devices. The new Product Update 1.12 for unlocked Treo 680 finally comes after two updates for the AT&T Treo 680.
What do you have to look forward to in this update?
* Corporate email support – Have your corporate email delivered to you with Microsoft® Direct Push Technology. Accept or decline meeting invites and access your company directory on the go.
* Power saving enhancements – Helps conserve battery life with improved power management and updated default system power preferences.
* Supports larger expansion cards – Supports up to 4GB SD expansion cards (including the SDHC format).
* Enhanced ringtone support – MP3 and other sound files purchased from the web or sent from friends can now be set as ringtones and alerts (formats: MP3, AAC, AAC+, MIDI, WAV, and AMR).
* Previous Updates – This update incorporates three previously released software updates: Treo 680 Camera Update (January 2007), Treo 680 Security Patch (May 2007), and Treo 680 Unlocked GSM smartphone SMS Update (July 2007).
I’ve heard from a couple people who has had success with this update. Do remember to back up your Treo before updating. The best way to avoid getting resets after the update is to reinstall your third party applications one at a time instead of an automatic restore.
