DOS Palmtop: Oasys Pocket 3 Tips


Helpful Tips:

o Get to DOS Prompt:
When you are in any of the built-in appz you can get to the DOS prompt by pressing "shift" and "function" and the key "Z" at the same time. These 3 keys are at the bottom left corner of the keyboard. Function is the lowest key on the bottom left keyboard, shift is above this key.

o Reset the device if it won't boot:
If it displays some small Japanese text on boot it means something like "Can't boot, please insert an F-ROM card". That means it lost the files due to power outage. So that always happens when it was turned off for too long and the backup battery is empty. To reset it you press and hold shift, funtion and enter keys and while holding them turn on power. The enter key is next to the * key, that grey one. Try that a few times. if nothing helps then you have to boot from a bootable S-RAM card.
