Hi, I had voice to text using a modified keyboard, but it crashes with Froyo. Does anyone know how to make this work again? do I just download another keyboard from the market? Thanks

Hi, I have added the very cool voice to text feature in Lekky's guide, and have a new jeyboard. However it now does something really annoying, which is whenever you select a word/letter from the suggested ones, it adds it and then makes a "space" afterwards, so if you are selecting single...

Just to let anyone know who is having horrible internet reception problems and unsending texts/bounced calls etc, while connected to 3g on Orange. Flashing the firmware and updating to 1.21.405.2 does not make any difference. The same problems occur. This means that either I have had 3(!)...

Does anyone know a good/working mini bluetooth keyboard (or even micro USB) that works with the Desire without a root. It would be good if it had a dock so it was "attached" to the keyboard, and excellent if it could be used to play games, e.g. SNESOID etc or Quake 3 etc. Micro USB might be...

Hi, Have just flashed my Desire to generic 1.15 ROM on Orange. Used these great instructions: Debranding / Unlocking an HTC Desire - The giffgaff community The goldcard tool thing linked makes it all so easy, none of that HEX key stuff. Only thing is the singla strength is significant worse...

Hello, I've heard that the galaxy S doesn't have flash support so you can't watch videos online until flash 10 is added with Froyo 2.2 at the end of the year. Is this true? does the galaxy S really have no way of watching videos online? Also, if you can watch videos online (or will be able to...

I'm getting my third Desire today after terrible problems with the first 2, most of which im sure is dodgy Orange firmware. they told me if I have another problem they will replace the handset. I'm wondering if I should stick with the Desire (and doubtless dodgy firmware again) and flash it to...

Hi, Orange are replacing my Desire, and I asked for a Black, but have just realised they told me to keep the BROWN battery cover. Are they different or is it just the front? Will the Brown cover look stupid on a black? It looks black-ish, maybe a tiny brown tinge. Thanks a lot.

Hi. After having many problems with my desire on Orange I want to try and get them to send me a galaxy instead. And I wondered if someone could please help answer there questions. My desire problems are Non functional 3g internet. Dodgy Bluetooth. Dropping calls. Random inability to text...

Hi, I'm thinking of buying one of these on Orange. Does anyone know how intrusive the branding is? Orange are notorious for ruining handsets with their crap, so I'm wondering if they have done the same with the Galaxy. If so, does anyone know how easy it is to remove? Thankyou.

Hey, Firstly thanks to everyone who has replied to my posts to help me with Desire problems. I am on my second handset and I am having so many problems with the phones I'm thinking of just giving up and trying to switch to a Samsung Galaxy S. I'm on the wretched Orange network and my phone has...

Hi, Can someone please explain unlocking to me, because I'm unclear on a few things: - If you unlock the phone using a code, is it permanent? Or can your phone get "re-locked". - If you are on one network e.g. orange, and you unlock and put in another sim-card e.g. T-mobile, does your phone...

Hi, Can someone explain to me a few things please: If you unlock your phone with a code, does that mean you can put any sim into it? If so, does it re-lock onto the new network/sim that you put it? and if so, can you unlock it again with the same code or is it permanent? Secondly, I...

Hi, I'm on Orange and am desperate to update my ROM as I am having awful problems with the dreadful radio version, no 3g reception, dodgy bluetooth, non-functional FM radio, dropping calls, and other problems. I am not desperate to debrand as such, but is it the case that I will have to...

Hi, I'm having severe problems with the Orange ROM on my phone, not to mention I hate how they have messed around with 2.1. I have 1.15.61.10 BB 32.30.00.28u_4.05.00.11. I'd like to know if anyone can tell me which is the best/most stable ROM to change to, and also and most importantly, if I...
