My telco here only give free 250mb data monthly which is impossible. Even my house got wifi, still insufficient as i'm an active user of foursquare, google buzz, fb and few social network apps. Not to mention checking email, surf, youtube etc. Then I subscribe 10Gb data monthly. Solve the problem haha

Wah, to fully utilize your data plan i think you need to charge at least 3 times a day~~ shocking.gif shocking.gif

Does anyone knows why cant get google maps on the market anymore?
Found out that latest googles maps has latest feature "navigation' which gives turn by turn navigation .but somehow our htc does not has this.. cry.gif
besides that  hmm.gif  i accidently found that actually it is in our phone
tap "+" to add items ->shortcut-> direction & navigation -> your destination -> save -> start the shortcut -> will not work

any experts out there can help? icon_question.gif

many thanks

Google maps navigation do not support countries other than US and UK for this moment.....
It is not htc problems but android itself.
There is modified google maps create by one of the great developer out there, which able to navigate using google maps...
That application is brilliant and i love it ~~
google for brut map then you will know what i mean, (it is not in the market now)~~

Market ones are very limited. Not exactly that nice. I found some of the Samsung Galaxy S ones over at XDA that look way better but wondering is there more tongue.gif

And do you guys have any GPS software (except Google Maps)? How do you guys free space for those cause from what i am reading thus far, the GPS would need around 100+ to 200+MB.

And anyone can guide me how to get swype to work? I installed multipe version, multiple times. Can see the options at Keyboard & Layout but cant seem to be able to switch my Handcent or Messaging to use Swype.
*
After select the option in Keyboard and Layout,
try long press at your messaging box until a popup window show, then choose input method...
select swype from there~~

Have you setup your facebook account?
Once you press facebook in the link, it should direct to to your facebook friend list, then just pick a friend from there~~

Yes, there is internal anthenna for the GPS. However, GPS program are not free as far as i know.

GPS is free, but if you use google maps then you need to pay for the data usage as you need to download the map from internet

Should be soon...
What i heard from one of the htc stuff, they already have the official testing version of Froyo from Taiwan...
When i ask for the file, he said he can't give it to me as it is not for public and not sure whether it is stable enough or not~~
but he said so far the version works well with some bugs like sync and facebook thing~~
cross finger for the release of official froyo~~
considering to root also when see all of you rooting~~
but like a lot of problem in rooting like contact cant sync to facebook, can't install application and so so.....
for backup part, after you guys rooted your phone and restore the contacts, does it all categorize in group as what you set before or need to do it again?
able to backup all sms and mms i have in my phone?

you can do nandroid backup first b4 u flash any custom roms. u dont hv to flash custom rom immediately, but what is ur purpose by rooting it?

Just want to make sure so that wont get shock during rooting process~~ tongue.gif tongue.gif
so the process basically would be backup --> root --> wipe sd --> partition sd --> flash rom --> flash radio (if necessary) --> restore ?
Planing to jump into dark, downloading modaco r5 now~~any comment about this rom?

Yup....

maliqu3 @ bro, in your blog you shows the step to flash new rom for unrevoked method, how about for old method? Is it need SDK and the flash rom.zip file?

Anyone know how to backup footprint data?
