Showoff your investment by displaying your personalized images and special effects on your Palm's screen during periods of inactivity.

ScreenCare will also launch your favorite application after periods of inactivity. This allows easier access to your most used application. For users of the Treo 600 and the Treo 650 including full album support, an additional feature allows you to have a black-screen battery saving feature after a shorter period of inactivity during a phone call. This feature is unique because it will allow you to adjust your listening volume with the Treo's volume keys during the phone call! ScreenCare now supports screen Blacking for pTunes!
Application Features:
* Cycle through your camera images
* Filter your images by Categories
* Use any number of JPEG images as screen savers from your SD card
* Launch your favorite application automatically after inactivity
* Use "special" effects to create fun screen savers
* Create your own Icons for special effects
* Black-out the screen during phone calls and while listening to pTunes and still use of your volume keys!

daddyeyes: I borrowed a friend of mines 650 with this program installed and it worked fine. He has the updated version. He told me he had an older version of it that kept crashing his treo 650, but then he updated to the newer version of this program and it seems to work fine. It does what its supossed to and wish I had it on my centro
shou5: Thanks for the input everyone. I was thinking of buying it but after all the negative feedback from people experience, I changed my mind.
skarface101: Killed my Treo 700p. It changed the sync ID, too, for good measure.
justbecause: phillyslickster that happened to me to but I found a solution, what I did was a hard reset, go in to the palm folder you will see a folder with your old id, delete the program that screwed you up from that folder hot sync and it will work again,
the problem was that when you re-store the palm it keep reinstalling that program...
so if you delete it from the folder it will restore all except the bad program
the u will be back in business...
hope u understand...
phillyslickster: I wish I had come to this site previously. I downloaded this app and my treo 650 cingular went into constant reset loops. I had to do a hard reset and even change my hotsync ID because I was unable to get the clean reinstall going to remove that app in the folder. Now, I have to go ask the developers from the 3rd party applications that I purchased to change my hotsync ID and give me new registration codes. I can't even use apps that I paid for until I get the new codes now because the trial period is over. Thank God, I had purchased backup. I was able to retrieve everything by restoring individual files from my Backup Man set. This application SUCKS!! DONT DOWNLOAD IT!!!!!!!!!!!! STAYING FAR AWAY FROM THIS APPLICATION ISNT FAR ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!
rerskine1fn: AWFUL!!!! I had the exact same problem as Dvisquez....had to do a hard reset because of the eternal loops and SPRINT "welcome/goodbye" screen on my VERIZON 650!!!! And then lost my contact book when i synced my backup after the hard reset....STAY AWAY FROM THIS !
dviquez: The worst ever!
I tried installing it twice, the first time it just reseted my Treo 650 every time i choose the program, the second time made the Treo enter on an eternal loop of resets, at the end I had to do a Hard Reset and erase the WHOLE sytem completely in order to be able to use my smart phone again!
