HackFinder - Hacks are little pieces of code that replace or extend functions of the PalmOS.
Usually hacks should be managed by a hackmanager like HackMaster or X-Master, but sometimes they patch the system by themselves, possibly risking conflicts with other hacks/ applications.
For background information on hacks, what they are, how they work and what could happen if you are not careful, be sure to read the article "Everything About Hacks" at www.dseifert.com/hacks.
To help determine whether an application installs a hack, I have written this little application called HackFinder.
It will scan all installed applications for code that installs a hack and will create a report listing these applications along with the PalmOS API call they replace/extend.
Be sure to read the manual to understand how it works and what its report mean.

Chandra Images Vol #3 Chandra Images Vol #3 - Chandra Images Volume #3 is a database of images for Open Logo Hack, a HackMaster style hack for the PalmOS, which displays startup and shutdown screens.

Contrast Fixer for the Kyocera 7135 Contrast Fixer for the Kyocera 7135 is a program that solves the infamous "Contrast Bug", where the contrast will randomly adjust itself sometimes. Each time the 7135 wakes up, Contrast Fixer tries to fix the settings so that the contrast and brightness don't change randomly.
Even though it was designed for the Kyocera 7135, it should work on any Palm
BackLight Info Hack BackLight Info Hack - I found that I can hardly find out if the backlight is on or off under strong light.
So I wrote this stupid software in order to save battery.
Just put it here in case anyone also need it.
I just tested it on my Palm m505. So use at your own risk

Crash Pro Even PalmOS applications sometimes crash. Most annoyingly the on-screen reset button often does not work, requiring you to take your device out of its case and perform a manual soft reset. For some devices you may even find yourself in a frantic search for a paperclip to be able to actually do the reset.
Recover ...
But here Crash Pro comes to your aid
Crash Crash - You remember these nifty dialogs saying "Fatal Exception" or "DataMgr.c, Line 1234, Null pointer passed" with a nice looking "Reset" button at the bottom?
