QUOTE(akachester @ Aug 3 2010, 03:59 PM) Hi Bro, I have checked on the link and downloaded all the required files. I have some queries. 1. How do I create partition Ext 3? 2. I checked LeeDroid thread and found that Leedroid 1.7 requires a new radio. I have downloaded that too. What is the step I should take? Install Radio first as per the blog guide and then install the ROM?

Then, using ROM Manager, there is an option to create a partition. Enter Ext3 - 512MB and Swap - 0MB. 2) You can do it either way. I personally flash the ROM first before installing the new Radio. And follow this guide : http://smarty-money.blogspot.com/2010/07/g...ustom-roms.htmlFlashing of Radio is exactly the same process as flashing a ROM.

Hi! I'm new to Android phone. I have used WM phone before, and currently switched to Nokia E72. But i don't like the Symbian interface, i miss the WM features like display the appointments & tasks on the home screen. Also, the SPB financial management software. Not sure HTC Desire have the above features and financial software?
