How to Install Homebrew Applications on the Palm Pre

Author: Chris

27 Jul

If you’re not willing to wait for Pre developers to come up with new applications then there’s good news for you. There’s at least a way for you to install and enjoy homebrew applications on Palm’s newest phone. In fact, we have two solutions for you!

You can get a desktop app, the WebOS Quick Install which will work on Mac, PC or Linux and will let your drag and drop applications straight to your Pre.

The other solution is called fileCoaster and it will let you install IPKs straight on the phone. While these ingenious solutions are available out there for now, you should make sure you take advantage of them at once since Palm might decide to somehow block them with a future firmware update!
