guys, my nokia n79 is starting to break down so i need to push my plans for an android smart phone forward. been eyeing desire all this while. galaxy s is interesting with the onboard memory and samoled but i use camera flash a lot and like sense ui.

my original plan was for an iphone, as i was using an ipod touch since last year and have grown accustomed to its apps/games. But the way Apple have been handling the antennae issue disgusts me completely, so i'll stay with my ipod touch only, on principle. There's no fm radio anyway on it, that i was so hoping on since last year.

can you guys recommend a seller based in lowyat/cod there that still sells the desire below the rrp or still at the promo price?

i google'd this but cant find a direct answer

my desire is stock, installed quite a few apps, still using the 2gb card it came with. no music/videos/contents.

i bought a 8gb microsdhc. can i just swap it in, or would there be some steps like copy pasting folders from the original microsd?

ok, one major gripe is the stock lock screen of the desire

when a call comes through the answer action is easy to accidentally trigger while in the pocket. the capacitive screen can be triggered by the skin of my thigh, as the pocket fabric is thin enough to conduct some current.

this can be solved by a better lock screen when received calls. you guys have any ideas?

guys, issue here

how can i change the screen when our Desire receives a call?

the slide down when it does has too short a travel, i frequently end up answering the call accidentally in my pocket.

im thinking of ditching LeeDroid 1.6 due to its poor batt life for OpenDesire

anybody here on OpenDesire can comment a bit on battery life?

strange.....battery getting way better after 3 days on LeeDroid1.6

ran the batt to 20% last night before discharging, maybe that did the trick?

700am full charge to 630pm battery on 79%
