QUOTE(gregy @ Oct 7 2010, 03:59 PM) Hi all, new Desire user here. I can't seem to find what I'm looking for in past threads so hope to get some answers here Gee... why you want to sync 2006 calendar? Even my Windows Mobile and Palm phones can't sync more than 3 months old. Except for repeating events.I tried to sync my Desire with Outlook, but the Calendar option in HTC Sync 3.0 allows me to sync old entries up to 1 month ago only! I have calendar entries dating back to 2006 which I'd like to import to the phone. Never had any issues so far in the past, upgrading through the yrs all my entries remained intact until now. I read from other resources that this "feature" was put into Android for whatever the hell purposes, but if there's no workaround then it would really suck @$$ for me, as I rely on my calendar a lot to keep track of past entries as well as all future entries. To all those who've successfully migrated all their calendar entries, how did you do it? Care to help a brother out? The only reason I think off why they put this limitation is to prevent the app db become bigger thus may slow down the experience. I migrated my Microsoft Phone Sync and Outlook contents to Google Clouds since using Android.... go Android go.... This post has been edited by Bugeca: Oct 7 2010, 07:33 PM |

QUOTE(hazril @ Oct 7 2010, 08:15 PM) you don't really need any website to dl wallpaper,best is that you use an image editing program, e.g Photoshop, Paint.Net then get whatever image that you want to use it as your wallpaper, crop or resize the image to 960X800. |

Just a bit strange that Android only allows from one month ago. It's like trying to say you must back up at least once a month, or some of your older entries will be lost.

flashed to auraxtsense 7.8.1 last night. Everythings well except that I have no Maps. I cant even install back the previous bruts map from 7.1 from titatnium backup. Some ppl experienced this on xda and suggested solution to them was full wipe. I already did my full wipe. Should I reflash again?

I had some problem with my first flash too previously and the second reflash resolve all the problems. Do note that do not do a full restore from Titanium Backup after a rom flash. Restore from the backup selectively. |

Hi guys,
I am new to flashing android rom, since upgrade to 2.2 OTA, i have no issue for my daily usage, but the problem now with my HTC desire is low in ROM storage, even the app can A2SD original, but the function do not help anyway... after the new skype install, my storage become low. So, anyone of you here are happy with your rooted-custom rom HTC desire with A2SD+? did A2SD+ really makes ur SD card partition ext3 , to the ROM ??? i hope to make my 8G micro-SD become 4G extra ext3 partition, 4G extra fat32 storage, can it be done? hope you guys get my question. |

You will run out of space for your data instead later when you fill up the FAT32 partition with MP3, videos, etc. |
