QUOTE(akachester @ Aug 20 2010, 09:44 AM) OTA FroYo comes with a different HBOOT (0.92) compared to Eclair which is on 0.80. Current rooting method only comes with 0.80 HBOOT. So, if you update directly via OTA, you will get 0.92 compared to those Custom FroYo. oh..meaning to say..i can still root..but not now..have to wait longer? So shall i wait and not update to Froyo yet?This post has been edited by coconutzz: Aug 20 2010, 09:46 AM |

QUOTE(akachester @ Aug 20 2010, 09:47 AM) Yes. If you want FroYo now and still have root capability, make sure the phone you are going to buy is on 0.80 HBOOT and root using Custom FroYo available at XDA. Those custom FroYo are all running on 0.80 HBOOT. bro mind telling me how to check HBOOT on the phone? |

QUOTE(KTCY @ Aug 23 2010, 09:57 PM) If the apps come with it, you can close. eg : Tweetdeck come with Quit at menu. Thanks Bro!Else, I think Android will help you to close it off once you don't use for some time. |

Dear all,
Good morning. I have a question. How can I NOT sync my GMAIL calendars to my HTC Desire? Each time I cleared my calendar entries on my phone, it will auto-sync again from my GMAIL...is there a way to turn the auto sync off for calendar only? TQ |
