get la htc desire . if desire hd come out . sell it and buy desire hd .

Hey guys wish to ask a couple of questions bout this phone before getting 1.

1 does the multitouch screen allow pinch zoom function on browser and viewing pictures?

2 is the ring volume and call volume loud? Cause my x10 are too soft its irritating

3 the froyo firmware does it have function to sync Facebook photos to contact? I think I read some where it canjust wanna confirm.

I'm currently using x10 and the slow firmware update wait game is getting on my nerves also the soft volume issue

Cheers

1. yes.

2. Loud for me.

3. Yes.

Thanks for the clarification ^^

XDA is down since yesterday

Btw, I managed to root my wife's HTC Legend and installed CM6 (aka Azure 1.0.1) on it - nice it's easier to use than I thought - APN is loaded automatically, no bug and good performance. It's more like a "minimalist" ROM so you need to spend some time downloading apps and widgets from Market

At least it gives me some time to play around with this legendary ROM as I am still reluctant to move away from AuraXTsense for my Desire

honestly i rooted mine and flashed custom initially just because im pissed off with that un-synced video playback issue.. hahaha..

I used my Desire for 3 months on stock 2.1 before finally rooted and flashed custom froyo ROM, been almost 1 month on custom ROM and no regret and will never regret until 1 day I brick my phone (Chances are minimal if you follow the procedures)

1) With A2SD+, i have 130++ apps/games installed and still have 60MB++ on internal memory
2) Ability to use apps which is for rooted phones only (Titanium backup, shootme etc). These apps give you very useful features
3) Can change standard font which looks dull and boring to me.
4) Ability to have custom boot animation on startup.
5) More flexibility to customize ur homescreen where you can use Mod widgets

And few more not mentioned here

Probably I will be flashing r9 later this weekend.
Will feedback whether it's a good move

can find a custom rom that keep all the htc stuff but rooted & has a2sd ... or try cooking it yourself

just flashed auraxtsense rom. I just have 1 question how do i restore the stock(finance - KLSE) deleted apps? I have download the deleted apps from auraxtsense but i can't install it thru astro file manager via apk.
I notice that i download the deleted apps filr contain som other folder which i think there is somthing to do wit it.
May b copy and paste al the file to sd card wil work??
Pls advise.

You can't install directly since it's system app. You have to use adb command to push the apk to /system/app/

Another option is to re-package the ROM zip file to include those apk in, but you need to skip validation while flashing

Ya the problem for un rooted device like mine have internal storage problem, just waiting more apps to upgrade to move to SD capable....

Anyway I still using the to stock 2 gb memory card.....

Come to decision to buy either a 8gb class2 card (RM 55), a class 10 8gb card (RM 91) or a class 10 16 gb card (RM 141).

Please advise

Can you teach me how?

8gb class 10 is more than enough.
16gb a bit too much. I sold that off.

You can read guide on ADB here

For second method - it's easier, just extract the ROM zip, put the apk files into /system/app, zip again - then flash the ROM

Managed to root my Desire which is running on OTA SEA Froyo (w/ HBOOT 0.93). I used Unrevoked 3.21 which is in beta right now. If you can't wait for the official release of 3.21, you can go to their IRC chat (channel: #unrevokedtest). The download link will be right at the top of the chat window.

I thought everyone who got the OTA for SEA got HBOOT 0.93?

My unit is AMOLED BTW. We're talking abt rooting only, not flashing custom ROM, so whether AMOLED or SLCD shouldn't matter.
