AOSP rom users! Be sure to check out Youlu Address Book, it has become a straight away default dialer for me once installed this morning. Very very clean interface! IMO, its a challenge to the htc dialer...biggrin.gif

Very nice potential..too bad no * and # keys..

How much is it there?

Yes you can download apps from com and transfer to phone. For free apps just go to the market on the phone and click the free tab. If you are talking about free paid apps, we're not allowed to discuss about that here sweat.gif

hi just wanna ask if i wanna get a ap set for desire,

is there any regional diff between the ori sets from sis aside warranty ?

like for ex, cant use market or language or physical handset difference or the software difference or extra marking on phone ??

thanks guys.. sorry for the newb ques..

i wanna be thorough and want to know the key difference before getting an ap, cant seem to find an ori set =(

=)
*
The only difference is the warranty. If you don't need 2 years warranty from SIS then just go for AP. I have Ori set. Personally, I felt like I should have gotten AP set myself and saved few hundred ringgit doh.gif

As for markings, I'm not too sure but it won't affect your usage so no worries.

Hi, My HTC Desire cannot detect any satellite for GPS, could this be a damage in the software or the hardware?...

I've change the rom version and radio but still doesn't make any difference. What are the chances that the hardware is dead?...

I've did Factory Reset for many times...

is it expensive the replace it?...roughly how much it cost?....
is there any GPS driver or some files that might be missing while I updated the rom myself??

I never tested the GPS function when it is newly bought. I tested it only after I updated the Android version from 2.1 to 2.2.

For your info, I've used Papago X5, GPS test, and many other apps to search for satellite but all fail, even after being outdoors for a long time...my fren's Galaxy S detects the satellite in just a few seconds....any help here?....HTC is gonna charge me a bomb for repairing it...coz my warranty sudah void(please dun ask why)..
*
Based on my experience, back on 2.1 I was able to detect my position in a few seconds. After upgrading to 2.2, I need to wait 5-10 minutes to get a lock on my position..maybe your case is the same?

Take back to HTC to check if you feel hardware is faulty.

MIUI looks interesting. But only itallian language ?

Its actually based on a chinese rom. But it is translated to several language. For english there are several. Many would go for Eevek's custom MIUI. Myself using J-style MIUI which is based on Eevek's version smile.gif

guys, do i need to s-off in order to get amon ra recovery? <-mentioned in turkey's guide but i think s-off is quite complicated..
amon ra recovery is to get a2sd right? if not any other methods to get a2sd?
*
AmonRa is a recovery tool only, like Clockworkmod. A2sd is dependent on the rom you flash.

Happens to me sometimes too. Nothing to worry about I guess.

Is there any way to get a "separate" A2SD+ to install into the HTC Sense?

Or A2SD+ only comes with custome ROM and no other way to put it into HTC Sense?
*
I think you need to have root. Then you can do it via
adb shell
pm setInstallLocation 2

QUOTE(hakumiyashi @ Oct 29 2010, 11:08 AM)
Yea I have done rooting and S-off on my Desire with stock Sense ROM.. Does that mean it would automatically has the A2SD+ capabilities? Eg: using Ext2 partition, Dalvik cache on SD card etc?
*
No..I think need to flash a rom with a2sd
