darn, i want it.

yea but the silver new one also no more in shops...

if there is any flaw with this phone or any drawback, can someone tell me what it is?

helo,

i'm gonna buy a 2nd hand legend. how do i check if it's rooted or not? i prefer to get a not rooted yet and maybe will root after warranty is over. i know some people say that we can unroot it it before go to claim warranty but reading all the jargon u guys talk above, I'm afraid it's gonna take time for me to do it i'm not so techie, just so-so.

and any heads up on hardware faulty that i can check? thanks.

oh i see, thanks Lucassss. any chance you r in lowyat today?

if it's sis set call sis and give ur IMEI number, if its no where in sight, key in *#06# to see



i bought 2nd hand legend for rm1k used 8 months
i see some good looking 2nd legend in being sell here:

Hey, I have story to share. I bought a 2nd hand legend from shop not from personal seller. When i go to view it, all is fine, the phone is quite mint and looks good (i hope it really is) but the only problem is, they don't have the first purchase receipt. but unlike nothing_nth, i have the warranty card, box, all stuff complete in the box (including guide, warranty statement, etc)

when i ask for it, they said it's fine, i just need the phone and the card for warranty. u know, i'm the kind who always buy new one coz i dunno much bout stuff so i dunno how to check for flaws for real, but after research for so long, i really want legend but there's new one around and the 2nd one is within my budget...and the phone that i'm viewing looks fine, like new and from my basic checking, nothing's wrong with it. but this is my first time with smartphone, so i dunno bout checking stuff like GPS or other software/hardware possible issues.

in the end, i decided to take it. the only thing bothering me is because it didn't come with first purchase receipt. it was holiday hari raya haji, so i cant call sis to ask, the shop keep assuring me it's fine coz if anything i can always come back to them. yea i guess, but well me being jittery and unconfident because u know 1 and 1/2 years is a long time...anything can happen.

so i call sis the next day and they say i need to have the original receipt and also (like buying car or bike) i need to transfer ownership in which i must write letter saying that I'm now the owner and have to give the details of the 1st buyer like name, address and IC I know the transfer of ownership is like quite impossible right? and i also had claimed warranty from nokia and SE before and i know they dont really check on those, but I'm sure that everytime the receipt is needed.

so i told the shop that i need the receipt, but unfortunately they really don't have it.i went to the shop again to discuss bout it, but then what to do, they really dont have the ori receipt. i told them, shop must have a record and copy of receipt, u can have copy from there. (coz "supposedly" this legend is traded in by their regular) but they say this was sold during roadshow, so in roadshow they dont do that coz no time so in the end i really can't get the ori receipt. however, to make me happy, that shop boy give me like a new one he wrote again like the same as the first one... i go there kononnya if i cant get the receipt want to return the phone and get my money back, but i'm not good at negotiating, so in the end i go back just like that

however, it's sis set and i checked the IMEI in htc site. and sis also confirm to me that the phone have until 2012 for the warranty. the shop boys tell me not to worry coz the transfer of ownership and stuff coz its only system, in reality people dont do that. I hope so...but i really think the receipt is important. what do you guys think?

haihh, I hope i can have care-free attitude like nothing_nth too like no worry and crossfinger hope nothing happen to the legend . So i really hope that too! and Lucasss said it's a good build phone and really nothing will happen to it! hopefully!!

anyway, now i'm official user of HTC Legend (after 3 days of keeping it in the box because of that receipt issue) ...lol

and i wanna ask, coz some user here reccomenD Alumor Capdase. will there be issue with the signal and wifi with the metal casing coz legend antenna is at the bottom rubber and it was said in the manual that for best performance, our hand shouldnt cover the rubber so can get optimum signal. so the metal, did it interfere with the signal.

omg, too long a story, please dont get bored at reading it...

ah glad to hear that. thanks you guys! yea, the sticker still intact. so, relief tq!

anyway, who here uses the alumor capdase? does it effect the reception for both phone and wifi?

anybody can download skype for legend?

i try from brainapps and market, when i click to download, it say:

The requested item could not be found.

same. i go to skype.com/m and click on the download link.

still it say: requested item could not be found.

thanks, will try this one

nahhh it's ok. just try every options, i'm also googling.

read in skype forum and few other forum, many people with the same problem.

probably regional, malaysia and few other countries coz one person from malaysia said when he go to thailand and using thai 3g, he can get the download file and installed it and it works fine...

lol u r funny.

anyway, lucassss, tried 3 apk skype already but none is working with the skype2skype voice.

only IM...

darn, just have to wait for skype to fix it i guess...

in my nimbuzz cant connect skype

fring too now no more skype...

darn it

oh! i tried on 3g yea, i'll try it with wifi soon, my university's wifi is having some problem now, so I can't test it.

thanks guys!

will make noise again if cannot

sorry but when i buy mine 2nd hand i dont have the unlock pattern. how can i get one?

tq lucassss

i'm not techie. so i want to ask question. i read somewhere, someone mentioned that if we upgrade froyo the official one we will not be able to root the phone anymore. how true is this and is it a big deal?

(i havent rooted my phone yet)

mmm somehow my phone quite slow today. lags and when auto rotate, the keyboard show pixelated big one first before turning normal. the recent changes i made was only installing an app called calorific and android agenda widget and that was 3 days ago. it was ok for past days. hmmm, wonder what happened.

ok, restarted, let see how it goes today. the keyboard looks fine now.

unrooted ones cannot?

erm, when it should light up? omg i never realize that in my phone :
