MIUI quite nice. Have some unique apps built in and everything is coated nicely with their unique style and sorting. And you can still use widgets unlike iOS. tongue.gif

Should be la... minimum 10mb/s compared to 4. Gonna pick it up in a bit.

sorry bro . you know in malaysia ,people will use the phone or sell it . unless your reward is worth more then the phone when sell back to the store . so consider you had a bad luck . just be more careful next time

i know nobody would give it back one with $100 reward, thats why im trying to find who picked it up n try to make a deal with that person
Anyway want to ask in so many blogs I read that HTC is able to lock the device if I give them the IMEI number of the lost phone.is it true?
*
only if u the phone had internet connection when u lost your phone and use htc sense to lock your device or use 3rd party app to do that . even if u do that i think people still hard reset the phone to use the phone

Hi there, all Desire S lovers!

I have one very stupid question. I myself consider it stupid...not sure about you guys.

What is the quality of the front camera on the HTC Desire S? Some review websites say that it is 1.3MP, while others rate it as only 0.3MP.

So which is which?

Thanks for all your help, guys!
*
based on the resolution it is 0.3 mp but i felt it had ordinary 5 years old cellphone 1.3 mp camera smile.gif

Hi jen.

I don't quite get what you mean... Let me guess... You mean the 0.3MP quality on the Desire S is as good as any 1.3MP cameras???

Please enlighten me if I am wrong.
*
this is what i felt on my camera and camera mp is count based on resolution so the camera is 0.3mp (vga) camera .

the sense 3.0 update kind of disaster for restating the phone . restart phone need at least 5 minutes with empty phone (after hard reset) when the phone is started i still have to wait about 2 to 3 minutes for my phone to idle . after that the phone will be operate normally .

bro, is it juz suddenly ok? for me is not quite ok as before is not so.
last tues i've went to brightstar service center at plaza berjaya, they said need to left it for 3 working days.
but of course need to backup everything.

that might be last resort for me other than own factory reset. BTW, appreciate if anyone can guide me how to backup my DS data, preferably inside PC.


Added on February 2, 2012, 5:13 pm

for me, its CPU. it should come with dual core. afraid that this phone will lag given that HTC come up with ICS update.
others is ok


Added on February 2, 2012, 5:15 pm

try not to do that one 1st... sad.gif
can we fall back the software update? to previous version 2.3.3 per say.
*
the phone lag because it using cpu to render the htc sense instead of gpu rendering .

for downgrade the phone . you need to s-off it and root it then flash this flash that bla bla bla . alot of things to do .

if you willing to take the risk . root it and install custom rom smile.gif . there is alot custom rom out there work alot better , alot faster and battery life alot better than stock smile.gif

I have a question to ask. My hboot version is 2.000.0002, S-ON, and reading over the first page, it mentioned that Revolutionary only works for hboot 0.98.0002?

Is there a way to root my phone and still be able to use custom roms while still maintaining my hboot version?

I've had this phone for almost a year now and I finally have the balls to try to root it hahahah.

Some help is very much appreciated biggrin.gif
-==EDIT==-

I manage to do it heh. Just would like to know which ROM(s) are you all using (for those who rooted their phones, of course)

Thanks!

i using endymion and waiting for custom fully work ics rom or stock ics rom for desire s smile.gif
