hey guys, new user of desire S reportin in. this phone is superb (minus the wifi though)

bought from a forumer here

btw, can someone pm me how and where to install papago on this phone? thanks in advance.

any news on the updates for our phone?

hi all
which is better?
galaxy wonder or desire s?

build quality desire S better. aluminum housing with gorilla glass

performance wise, both are same although W has more processing power

i reason why i choose desire S over galaxy W because i tends to drop my phone.

well i running ics beta for desire s right now.

Hard to find desire now le?..why.?

i think its because DS is not that popular.
well i love it because perfect screen size + battery capacity ratio.

SIS is not carrying it anymore i think. that's why

and now people are going for 4 or 4.2". but 3.7 is more practical.

I just ask the HTC Sea customer service, they said will launch the latest update on 9th December 2011
Hopefully will get by then

awh man...that's sad...then most likely there is no ics for desire s?

dont worry. SIS is only a distributor in malaysia. desire S is quite popular in other country like hong kong

about ICS update - if desire HD and incredible S able to upgrade to it ICS, desire S will be no exception as well ( cause all having same hardware spec mar, using same proc and ram)

Don't know what's htc thinking..hmmh

hi all
i've been using SE P series since 2003
currentli still using SE P9i
i guess too comfy with touch screen+keyboard
i plan to have an android phone
right now eyeing HTC + samsung
i want someting of similar to my current phone
qwerty + touchscreen + not dat bulky + 3.7inc screen is fine
but looking at current trend, its hard to look for qwerty
radio + videocall a is must
n d availabiliti of copy + paste i.e. sms/text/phone no into a new message etc.
d price would be somewat around 1.2k n below
i was thinking of desire s
a few forumers suggested xperia ray
wats ur 2 sen?

if you need a physical qwerty keypad, i suggest you xperia pro or desire Z. but those with keypad are much heavier

actually there's an alternative for desire S, which is galaxy W.

but since you mention video call is a must, then desire S may not fit you cause HTC do not supprt native 3G calls yet, take galaxy S2 or W instead ( there's fring and skype for desire S, but requires internet connection. i may be wrong here)

Added on December 7, 2011, 1:08 amman. sense 3.5 on 1ghz processor is a big

i tried that on rhyme during the recent pc fair... laggy even there is not much apps installed

well, there are custom rom port from sensation xl to DS and it work smoothly. no lag so whatever.

btw in the htc rhyme, that's just lite version of sense 3.5.

i prefer aosp rom though.

Hi guys.. your desire s managed to get the update on market to 3.0? mine is still 2.3 version... dunno why not updated until now...

i have googled this matter and noticed that some other android device also having the same problem.

let's see if we all will get it tomorrow

u can download the .apk file and install the update manually

hi guys, did anyone manage to get the update for their phones?

nothing from Incredible S, although European users already receiving the updates for DHD, IS and DS. next week, maybe?

i rather wait for ICS update straight....
