Homebrewing is fraught with difficulty…
After googling and a lot of trial and error, this is how it worked for me:
– Enable developer mode on the Pre:
+ ‘just type’ the following: webos20090606, then run the secret app and follow its instructions.
– Download and install the Palm SDK on the Mac
– it will fail, you’ll need to view package contents on the installer, then run the novacom installer manually
– Download the preware binary
– cd to /opt/nova/bin
– sudo ./novacomd
– unplug the Pre3
– reconnect the Pre3 in “charge only” mode
– new terminal window
– cd to /opt/PalmSDK/Current/bin
– sudo ./palm-install ~/Downloads/org.webosinternals…
If that’s all gone well, you’ll have a new icon in your app drawer called Preware, and that’s where the magic starts.
