Guys,

I have a question about the Desire. My friend send me an SMS which have an Vcard attachment. I think it is those sending the contact via sms from her Nokia phone. When I receive the sms, I click on the vcard and it gives me a message that the vcard has been imported successfully.

However, I cannot find the contact via PEOPLE, in fact I do not know how to actually "export" that vcard to a contact. I used to be able to just save it as another contact when I use a Nokia phone but I am new to this Android ...need help

Thanks

Iceman31 are you sending a file with chinese character? Try renaming it to english and send again. It works for me that way

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)~~

The battery of the Desire is really the major concern right now.

- I fully charged my Desire before going to sleep, by the time I wake up it only left with 70%. (I have turn off everything but left the data 2G/3G on)
- Continuous using browser, game and email checking (push email) - my Desire can only last 3 hours max
- With just data on, it drops 2% every 5 minutes - that is putting the phone in standby mode
- Even while charging using the car charger, I put up GPS, Bluetooth and Data - the battery keeps dropping while charging
- I charge 2 times on average on a daily basis

This is how crazy the battery life - something must be done, I am thinking of now getting a spare battery, how much is an original SIS spare battery for Desire?

Try turning the data connection off and see whether it makes a difference.. I guess some app is running in the background and constantly using data..

As for the car charger, how much is the rating? most car charger i saw are only rated 0.5A.. I guess not enough juice when you're using GPS, bluetooth and data at the same time.. lol..

When I initially bought the phone, it too used to give me same little battery life. Then I run through full charge-discharge cycle for around 6 times. Thereafter the battery life increased tremendously. Now the battery of desire serves me full 18+ hours with 3G always on doing my fb, twitter, 2 accounts mail push every 5 mins, gtalk, ym and browse internet for an hour or so. Plus i also listen to music for around 1 hr daily.

To maintain the same battery performance, I now keep on doing the same - full charge-discharge cycles.
