anyone can confirm whether we need to send the other half of the warranty or not ??
I not yet send the warranty card.. kinda lazy to send it..
online register the sis warranty done, but still waiting for the receipt from my seller..
receipt not yet received..  need to scan the receipt and then send to them.. then only can get the warranty fully rite?

by the way.. how do i check my phone manufacture date ??
cus the sis website stated, if I don't send the scan receipt.. the warranty will start when the phone is manufactured  sad.gif
*
i didnt send any receipt.. the maxis help me send together with their maxis stamp labelled n all. i forgot either they photostatted the receipt or not

hello guys... i'm a new user here.. bought it few days ago, haven't actually try out everything on the phone yet. Just a question, anyone updated to the new 1.21.405.2 firmware yet? Saw someone already updated here.. everything ok and better? If ok I'll try updating manually. There's a site teaching how to update manually.

nop it is just from a different distributor and different warranty policy.
it is still an original set. just the referring part

ORI -SIS set
AP - any other set apart from SIS

both still genuine htc tho

it is stable indeed.. been using it for 3 days already.. all smooth but so much more can be optimized.. thats why htc is taking so long to make it perfect.. just wait for the official release.. u will be surprised by it smile.gif

how do u rate ur difficulty of rooting out of 5? what is the use of goldcard? do we need to create it? or is it just for locked set? i dont understand that part. btw now ur warranty void? or have u found the way to unroot it?

Is the anyway to change the way we unlock the screen of desire?

let's say I want to do unlock the screen like this:
1. tap any where on screen
2. slide the bar/press whatever button on screen to unlock it
*
i think there's no way if u r in the stock ROM, unless u root it, u can customise more.

The price difference between a original car charger and those generic type is usually less than MR50. For this small sum, why risk buying a cheap charger to charge a 2k phone ? I don't usually use the original htc car charger but use a very good dual USB outlet cigarette lighter ( it is about RM 60 more expensive than the cheap type )  and and he original USB cable. The whole setup cost me RM 130 . The original HTC car charger I plug it in the other USB port of the cigaretter lighter plug to charge my other htc HD2 when I am on the road.

Try Trackball Alert - works perfectly on my Nexus. You can assign different colours to emails, sms, gmail, miss call, tweeter etc. It is a free download from marketplace. The PRO paid version can assign more stuffs. Don't know how well it works on the Desire.  No harm trying and please feedback your testing


Added on July 13, 2010, 12:29 pm
Yes you are right. My Nexus experience - The latest Froyo ver 2.2 is fantastic. I'd say it "blow away" and thrash the performance in browsing and download videos/you tubes, streaming compared to the earlier ver 2.1 and my other htc HD2 and iPhone 3GS. It is a highly recommended upgrade

is there any way to un-root it back? i mean if u do a hard reset, it will still run the ROM we installed rite? or we have to wait for the new official ROM to release then only can un-root? sorry for nooB question.

You can unroot it. With this you can install back the stock rom and recieve OTA updates on new rom updates. All these tricks you can refer at forum modaco http://android.modaco.com/category/430/htc...ire-modaco-com/

Unlike Windows mobile phones, you cannot remove the lock bootloader. On Windows mobiles, one can restore everything back to original and SIS will be unable to detect phone's rom has been tampered with.

With Android, when you bootup you will still see a lock logo with the clasp taken off for rooted phones and similarly for phones unrooted after rooting . So far no way  to hide this
*
oh man..
u mean to say even after unroot the phone, we can still know that the phone has been rooted b4? but i dont quite get it why it will void warranty by just rooting it? is it because of the access of controlling the hardware?

i_bony: Firstly the QR Code for Google Open Spot returned a 404 - and I couldn't find it in the Android Market. Add to the fact that GPS is inaccurate indoors, and my office parking lot has no reception (so I can't get a Google Map downloaded) and that all works against the app.

Oh and plus I don't drive, heh.

guess it only works like the google street view or google navigation i guess. only in US.

QUOTE(allenlyk @ Jul 13 2010, 01:25 PM)
For Google Open Spot, your phone needs to be rooted and using market access/enabler as the Google Open Spot is currently only available to US, Canada and Holland..

meaning if we root our phone still cant use this app rite? furthermore we need other android user to use this app as well to get it working rite?
