Thanks all for reply. Yeah thinking of getting Ori now..Not much difference in pricing also..

I don't have the phone yet but I can't wait for Froyo to be released

u can always root like many users have done here if u really cant wait for Froyo, shud be awesome.

the price difference is not much?
the cheapest AP i found is rm1880(at garage sales), and how much is the ori?

around 2k...

AP cheapest I found at garage sale is rm1830..Ori cheapest 1970..

not much different but u can get extra 1 year warranty if u go for ori.

i use revoked.

it will just do the rooting job.. the rom need to be installed separately.. i used modaco..

Hi.. I am Indonesian and i've just bought HTC Desire in Shanghai.
Apparently, after i going home in Indonesia, I've discovered something quite trouble some.

1. There is no Friend Stream software..
2. I cannot link my Facebook to every contact list... i even cannot tap "Link to Facebbok account"...
3. Pinch and Zoom is NOT ALWAYS work.. I need to restart the phone to make it work properly again.


I notice build number of my htc desire is GOAPK. Later on, i search on google and found out that it is Chinese HTC.
And as far as i know, in China, Facebook is forbidden...

Questions:
1. How to solve it so that all my 3 problems solved without adding another problem?
2. Can i change the software?

I will appreciate your opinion... Thank you..

And here it is HTC answer of my problem:
"Thank you for contacting us again. Considering the technical details of your device the situation is as follows: your device was an Italian device initially. The device has been bought from Italy and imported in China. Someone tried to flash the original ROM on the phone with the Chinese version. This operation has failed and consequently, the functionality of the device has been affected. We would recommend you to return the device to the retailer and ask for a refund. Due to the fact that the device has been flashed, even the repair centre will refuse to repair it, as this device it's been damaged completely. I trust that this resolves your query. Please do not hesitate to contact us again if required."

Can i just reflash the ROM?

So, anything to take note of Unrevoked? Is it just download the software from their site, click, and it will be rooted directly? How good is Modaco? Anyone here on OpenDesire? That look quite interesting. And anything to take note when picking a ROM? Looking for something with Sense, and would be even better if its the leaked official Froyo from HTC

i used unrevoked method to root and my phone is working as normal though. I tried using rom manager to flash before but the phone just restart and go into recovery. Not sure this is normal or not. so until today i flash roms in recovery. simple as it is, i just select the zip file i want to flash and just flash it.

pluginbaby.. 1.4c is out.. weird part is i never had any issues with the usb connect to pc though.. yaya the space in ext3 reduced when i installed apps.. so i just assume that apps are installed in sd card then..

any android apps that function similar to this??

Thanks alot. I am almost certain i am sticking with Unrevoked for now due to its simplicity. Still choosing the ROM from XDA though. Hopefully there is no mistake, scared i end up with a bricked phone

Btw, which ORI RUU you guys downloaded from this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667

Which is the standard ROM we are using at the moment?

only one note. even a noob can root the phone with unrevoked.

on ur question abt modaco. im not sure whether its good or not, cause i havent tried any other roms. but so far no problem.

Modaco ROM needed to pay right? Whats the good thing about them that you choose them in the first place and are they worth the price? Btw, how to check what bootloader we are using?
