Hello everyone, I've put up with the constraints of the Desire's internal memory for long enough now. I've decided I want to S-OFF and change the stock Hboot. I wondered if anybody could tell me a little about how I go about this process, and recommend which boot thing to use. I...

It would appear today, HTC has expanded their bootloader unlock tool to many new handsets and surprisingly, our original Desire. Personally not entirely sure what this means for me, since I'm already rooted but perhaps someone could explain ... ? Anyway, more @ Welcome to HTCdev

So recently, I've noticed that when my phone battery reaches about 13/14%, the phone seems to suddenly think it's empty and powers down. It's not much of an issue, as I'm very rarely that low. But it frustrating none the less. After some investigation I've discovered it is obviously due to...

Simple question... I'm going abroad, and obviously need to choose a rom before I go. Currently, I use Redux and I love it. Battery is great and it is without a doubt, the most stable rom i've ever used. Problem is, it doesn't have HD video capabilities. So, my questions- Do any...

So I thought I would make a thread where we can all post and discuss the mobile internet speeds we get on our different networks. I'm curious to see which networks are best and if they vary much. I'm finding mine pretty slow atm too. Try and post... - Network - Speeds (Upload and Download)...

Was just searching around and found this Desire case by Cygnett. Description: "Smooth yet durable, this vibrant case with an anti-fingerprint coating offers excellent surface protection from fingerprints, dirt, skin oil, sweat and cosmetics. Super-slim shield that protects edges &...

Over the last few weeks, I've seen an increasing amount of threads about people upgrading, or moving on to something new. I thought I'd share my thoughts on why I'm keeping mine. First of all, the issues that I once had with my Desire have all been solved. Possibly the biggest problem was...

I'm getting really frustrated now. This problem is a real nuisance for me, as I use my Desire a lot solely for this purpose. In my room, the wifi signal has always been pretty weak, generally only getting 1/2 bars. However, the connection is stable and still about 6mbps. This is never...

I was having my daily browse of android central last night and came across this rather cool rom review. Android Central ROM review: Doc & Stefunel's ROM kitchen for the Galaxy S | Android Central Seemingly, it builds every aspect of the ROM in something like a UOT kitchen, allowing...

Well after a very long wait and although not OTA just yet, it would appear we can finally get a glimpse at 2.3 for our desires. The test ROM just leaked, so we can all flash away :) But... it doesn't have the new sense (2.0/2.1) which means no skins for us. It is a test ROM, so I suppose this...

Basically, I spent a lot of time at the weekend setting up a whole set of new homescreens using launcher pro plus. This included lots of widgets being resized, custom icons, custom docks, custom folders and lots of things like minimalist text to open apps. Anyway, I now want to either update...

Having a bit of an issue with GingerVillain 1.0. I haven't moved my router or changed settings etc, but now when I'm in my room the signal is constantly dropping out (once every few minutes), making apps like iplayer and youtube unusable. However I tried in the same spot with my laptop and no...

So everyone on here seems to use GingerVillan 0.9 / 1. Can anyone tell me what it offers over Oxygen v2.0-RC7 which I presume would be really smooth, with no problems etc seeing as it is stock with few tweaks? I am interested in a gingerbread rom, but not really sure which is best. Everyone...

I wish to change back to a sense rom I think as I haven't been on one in ages, and I rather like them. However, I am thinking I would quite like to try a sense v2 rom, ported from the Desire Z / HD. Having a look on xda, there are about 10 serving this purpose. (Desire Android Development -...

Up until last night, my phone has been functioning perfectly. I had flash 10.1 installed and iplayer ran perfectly. Today, when I went onto iplayer, it said I didn't have flash and gave the link to download it from the market. I thought it odd that it would delete itself , but I went onto the...
