I see. Looks like honeycomb pattern. Quite cool.
Desire HD uses lcd screen only.
Thats weird. Material used for midnight blue and misty silver is different?

No not yet. My download hangs at 150MB each time and that is like after watching it crawling every 0.1MB every 1s. I think I would try again tonight.

Sorry to be noob. How to safely upgrade to 2.3.3? Using PC companion? Can I download it first then copy to the phone and update? Will hit help improve battery performance?

Not original with arc, original is class 2 only. I changed to 16gb class 4. I dont like dna because failure rate very high, though its very cheap.

not yet... this week quite bz... might be next week

Added on July 3, 2011, 7:01 pmby the way, does it take a longer time to installed application. just now trying to installed opera mini, the progress bar seems stuck at 25%. any idea about it.

new user of arc reporting in, so far i didn't see any hair line crack in my arc, plus i juz feel dat my battery is consume more faster then usual.... it make me 1 day sometimes charge 2 or 3 times like dat....

any suggestion or solution?

i heard the new version can even change the themes as well.. is it true or just a fake news?

If there are themes than it would be interesting. Bored of the blue background theme. 

I also having the battery issue. Idle without any calls during night time will consume 30-40% in 6-8 hours which I found it to be really ridiculous. I have being using it for 1 month now but battery not improving. However, the battery will hold much better when I keep on charging it when it hits 100%. The 100% will stay for 3-5 hours until it drop to 99%. I think the battery indicator is not very accurate.

Normally, 1% can standby how long?

i wanna ask, do most of you used the power button to lock/unlock your phone or you used widget to lock?

do you have hairline crack prob near the censor ?

i thought those cracks were from excessive use of the button.. so far i limited myself to the use of hardware button as much as i can..

is there a  way to exit or closed an application completely? by using the back or home button will it completely exit/closed an application. i heard that it may still runs at background.

pm me ur email
by the way, am using hk rom ..
