Palm TX Software Compatibility List

Software Compatibility List for All the Latest Palm OS Devices

Sorted by Title in Alphabetical Order - Click to Sort by Date Updated

Go to Recent Updates - Go to Green Light List - Go to Red Light List - Go to Test List

In advance, I just want to thank everyone for their contribution to this list. Without many users within the Palm community, this list would not be possible. Thank you!

This list will include all the software that has been verified by other users to work on the Palm TX. With all the work that has gone into making the software compatible with the Palm Tungsten T5, I really did not expect there to be problems with software on the Palm TX. Feel free to look at the software compability list for the T5 to get some idea what to expect on the TX. However, it appears that there are enough subtle differences that the list for the T5 may not always apply for the TX.

If you do not find the software title, it does not mean that it does not work on the TX. It just means that it has not been tested by a TX user that has posted his/her experience.

To submit a title to this list, please include the four things: the title of the software, the version of the software, the Internet link for the software, and confidence level of the tests. Here is a list that defines different confidence levels:

Need: Tested and the software needs to be updated to be compatible with the TX.
Low: Tested the basic functions of the software, and everything appears to be working on the TX.
Medium: Tested a lot of the functionality of the software including a few difference settings and options, and everything appears to be working on the TX.
High: Tested a multitude of options and scenerios that you can guarantee compability of the software with the TX. Anyone can submit the information, as long as you follow the guidelines listed in the above section.

You can submit information to the list using our contact form.

Do not install the T3 files that are included with many software titles. The files are as follows: AppSlipRotate.prc and StatusBarLib.prc.

PalmOne Help on Third-Party Software Issues

I have modified the list to make it easy to see what does work (Green Light List) and what does NOT work (Red Light List). If it is on the Green Light List, the confidence level shows how extensive the software was tested on the TX.

I have added a new list for requested software that people would like tested on the TX.
