amoled becomes a rare item recently huh?  sweat.gif  Even Pantech is refused by Samsung to provide Amoled screen
You can see the version in the first boot screen (the white screen)

Rooting your phone won't change your hboot version. The only way to get hboot 0.92 (which is undesired for custom  ROM flashers) is to upgrade to Desire to Froyo by OTA
*
The only AMOLED that are said to be low in supply is the 3.7" one and its the same one that Pantech is requesting from Samsung. Thus, all of them do not have stock for it.

Anyway, here is another good sample on AMOLED vs SLCD. It seems AMOLED came with blue tint while SLCD is on a yellow tint. It does say SLCD had better visibility under the sunlight but contrast wise, AMOLED is better.

In regards to power saving on the SLCD, this is the quote :

QUOTE
It also offers some improved power usage in the general case (though AMOLED gains an advantage if displaying mostly black images). LCD screens consume less power when displaying all-white content.


Looks like its not exactly battery savings after all cause from all i could remember, most, if not all of Desire is in black color tongue.gif

Flashed to R5 last night. Battery seems to last longer than Leedroid 1.7b but might just be a placebo effect. Need to use it for at least a few more days to determine if it's true.

Weather widget is working fine. Have you checked if your mobile network is configured? (set the APN etc.)

Now.. must find a way to remove those pesky system installed apps like amazon MP3 and Wavesecure etc..

Well, mine is the stock FroYo ROM from Modaco. I am pretty sure my APN is ok cause i have been using it without any problem. I can even remove the widget, add it back again and it will be able to update the weather successfully. However, after a while, it just shows a blank weather widget, and would not update anymore.

Hmm, from what I've heard, you can upgrade, but you can't downgrade. Better go check with other Maxis Ctr or with other Maxis staff. Some of them can be really ignorant tongue.gif

Check out the comparison between AMOLED and SLCD on a Nexus1..I think SLCD lost by quite a lot..

Never had the problem using Unrevoked.

I had this problem previously when rooting with them. When i switch to Recovery and plug in the cable to my PC, halfway rooting with unrevoked, a driver message pops up stating i have unrecognise device (i already install the driver earlier and its ok) and all of a sudden, unrevoked stopped. All i did was reinstall the driver and start back again. smile.gif

Btw, i did a battery stats wipe yesterday and it seems i cant charge it to 100% now. Damn. Its stuck at 99% even after 30minutes.

I'm doing the same thing now - it should take 30-60 minutes to become green and your battery will be good to go

EDIT: Even it goes green before 30 minutes, just leave it charging for a bit longer

Do you guys know any desktop program that can organise the contacts in Desire's "phone" - one that can get all the phone contacts from phone, organised in desktop, then sync back to Desire. Something like the Palm Desktop. Android is too "cloud"-oriented. The contact format in Gmail is not the same as the format in the phone.

Or you have other workarounds? Like export to scv file then import back?

thanks. smile.gif

I sometimes wish it could have the same feature as the iTunes where you can backup every single thing using that 1 program, even apps sad.gif
