HTC Legend has so little internal memory that i'm always facing low memory...

Finally i've done the a2sd and enabled dc2sd.... hahahaha... my internal memory is never low again!!! And since i had so much memory, i had the time to play with the theme on my phone... this is currently how my GUI looks like....

Just download VISIONary+. You can do a temporary root, permanent root and even unroot with a single click.

Remember I was having problems rooting my phone? I used this and it worked.

Guess what? I found and bought a Red Legend.....

We were at a mall and there was a HTC store there some how planned it to be to she would walk right in and test the phones there.
FOund out that DHD is too big for her liking, Wildfire, Aria screen aint smooth enough for her and too small... She was leaning to the Desire then asked if Legend was still for sale. you guys know the answer..

So yeah I bought one 2nd hand unit since she said she aint too techie and would not bother with apps.. but 1st thing i gotta do is install swype for her lol!

wow! nice! red for CNY ha? how much?

You can try doing the permanent root, then flash other roms.

Just make sure you do a nand backup.

Just buy this phone last wednesday..already felt bored with it..thought of selling it..haha

Guys,got any suggestion on apps or anything that can make me felt worth to buy this phone?
Thx a lot:)
*
why you buy a phone before researching what it can do...

I bought 2nd hand legend 2 months back and untill now still hasnt gotten bored of it tongue.gif and that is without rooting, I'm sure if i root will be more exciting and boredom will not visit me any sooner lol.

anyway, i have these apps installed helping me do some daily stuff, maybe u can consider them to kill ur boredom:

angry bird season - keep me awake at night until i finish play all the levels, this i dont use anymore, but keep me entertained when i first buy this phone

aldiko - i read story books at night, i get free books at freebook and u can get a lot from the net the books that u like

agenda widget - integrate all my calendars, so i can put the widget on the homescreen and see what's my next schedule

Bambuser - cause i study edtech, so we sometime do live recording of what's happening in class so that we can share with our friends who were not in the class

bloggerdroid - i have photoblog which i take photos of what i eat, so this is a fast way to do it

cardio trainer - keep me wanting to exercise daily coz i can know the calorie i burnt, and also have like resolution thing in which i set target how much do i want to exercise, so it will remind me to do it tongue.gif

facebook/twitter/social stuff - this one normal la, i dont use this much though coz i prefer in laptop for this

FMRadio - my car dont have radio so i hear this one while driving blush.gif
gmail - normal la check email

Hijri - I'm muslim, so I used not to care of what islam date is today, but with this now I know

Iquran - believe me, now I read quran more because this is really handy. coz the big book sometimes i'm lazy to open

Maps - google map that help me when Im lost coz i have no sense of direction

Minesweeper - classic game that i never get bored of (the expert level) but with legend it force close a lot.

Money Droid - I key in everything i spend in here so at the end of the month i know where my money goes to and see if I have not spend wisely

news- normal la read paper

PAPAGO - GPS that helps me coz like i said i have no sense of direction but i dont use much coz i have no data plan, so it may be expensive. But i use it once in a while

QuickOffice - to view some of my PPT and word doc before presentation, so i can prepare while waiting my turn

skype - call my friend in mexico and chit chat

talking tom - play with my nephew and teach him to repeat new words using this, he likes it a lot, and enjoyable. It's one of edtech stuff that i like

VISIONary++ - i use this from Lucassss recomendation but i just temproot coz i want to screencapture some of the phone screen as i need some for some articles that i write - again related to my study in edtech

webdictionary - to look for word meaning when i read articles, also related to my study

wordpress - also for microblogging, but i dont use this as often as bloggerdroid

youtube - keep me entertained in the library when I'm bored with reading lol

I havent install any comic or manga reader as i dont wanna get distracted whistling.gif as i have lots of serious reading to do...haha but that's some of the apps that I am keen to install.


now i dont need bring my laptop when i dont really need it coz all the simple stuff can be done on my Legend (and I have a big 15.4" laptop that's not pleasant to carry around tongue.gif ). I just use the library com in the university to do heavy stuff.

When i decide to buy a smartphone, (i used to have old SE K508i for 6 years prior to Legend!)I wanna make sure I use all the possible stuff for me to make it worth every cents that I spent on it. Also, most of the things that i need to do are for my study so having this phone really makes me utilise it at its maximum.

You have to find things that u need to do to make ur phone feels worth it. accessibility to internet connection also determined ur interest towards ur phone lol, coz if u r not connected there's nothing much can do with the phone (although there r some good offline apps as well)...as for me, i dont have data plan coz i am paying for my broadband for laptop at home, but on campus i use the campus wifi all the time to do all the stuff i mentioned above.

Just find ur interest. lol. coz if u get other androids too, in the end it;s about the same of what u can do with ur phone...i know the higher 1g processor or ability to use Honeycomb or gingerbread may soon makes legend obsolete but bored-or-not wise depends on what u use it for... wink.gif

i have a silly question.

i have factory reset my phone and backed up all the stuff and apps using mybackup pro. now that it is factory reset, how do i install the mybackup again to restore the stuff? i used to have IO file installer to install for sd card, but again how do i access my sd card again to install it coz i factory reset and it's gone to. i went to manage apps in setting but dont have the options.

lol.

I have done this before one time when we upgrade to froyo but i forgot how, haha, here is a non-techie for u tongue.gif i googled and found that we must install android sdk to be able to, i remember installing this last time but not sure if this is the way?

please help. tq!
