    Suspicious SMS in my Draft Folder

    Simplest and most thorough thing to do is to backup the data on your phone, do a hard reset and then flash it with the latest firmware.

    HTC Launches Desire!!!!!!! 29k

    ^ Too late!! :P Already updated it to Froyo. A few new apps (Google voice search, Flashlight, Google news and weather etc.) but other than that not much new that pops out. As for one handed usage, yeah you can use it. You can even type a message, but it will be slow. Two handed typing in...

    The Samsung Galaxy S thread

    While I opted for the Desire over the Galaxy S, inmy search for a good case for the Desire, I came across a good (but expensive) manufacturer of quality cases - case-mate. I am trying to get one for my desire, but here's one I found for the Galaxy S which would not just protect the phone but...

    HTC Launches Desire!!!!!!! 29k

    Heh, I know, I know. I have been using it at home for e-mail etc. and downloading a shit load of apps. But yes, still waiting on the invisible shield and case to arrive so I can be reasonable assured I am not going to **** up the phone in a week! As already discussed it's more than likely...

    HTC Launches Desire!!!!!!! 29k

    Heh :) yes and no! I have still not put my sim card in it and started using it as a phone as I had to figure out how to get contacts out of my elcheapo nokia phone. I was finally able to do that yesterday. Now I am waiting for the invisible shield that's supposedly en route from the States...

    Free StealthGuards Invisible shields (LIMITED SUPPLIES) for your phone...

    They said the package is too small so there is no tracking number. Now it's just a matter of whether it comes in 1 week or 3. So far it's been about 10 days for me.

    Galaxy S or XT720 or Desire

    Flipkart - :hap2: :thumb: They delivered the phone in almost exactly 24 hours from my placing of the order all the way from Bangalore to Delhi. Froyo is already out for Desire in many countries. Not sure if we can somehow update it unofficially, but official update should not be very far away...

    HTC Launches Desire!!!!!!! 29k

    Got the phone a couple of days back - superb device!!! Really impressed! And also quite impressed with Flipkart, who delivered the product almost exactly within 24 hours of me placing the order all the way from Bangalore to Delhi!! The Super LCD screen is awesome - I have seen the Galaxy S...

    Galaxy S or XT720 or Desire

    I would say: Motorola - don't even consider Galaxy S - large screen, great performance, but poor build quality (light and plasticky) and terrible UI Desire - Fantastic UI, slightly smaller screen, great build quality (feels solid and just the right weight) I went for the Desire - no regrets!

    Yeah, all in all I feel I should rechristen the phone and call it the HTC Pain in the ***. :P

    HTC Launches Desire!!!!!!! 29k

    ^ Will do. I have my doubts on the black version - I have a feeling that the greyish brown thing only is being described by them as black. But anyway, I am excited either way! --- Updated Post - Automerged --- Hahahahaha... this had to happen. The dealer just called me and said it is now...

    HTC Launches Desire!!!!!!! 29k

    No but some people on thinkdigit forums seem to have got it from flipkart. They confirmed that they got a proper bill with VAT etc. The only retailer who even is aware of the launch of this phone has been yanking me along for the last 5 days, and so has HTC India. They first claimed that it...

    Yet Another Galaxy S vs Desire thread!

    ^ but does this mean Samsung has used Gorilla Glass from the start, or that new batches will have it? The Press Release is a bit confusing, not to mention that if they have been using it from the start, why the hell would they not advertise this fact? All news on this subject is from the last...

    HTC Launches Desire!!!!!!! 29k

    ^ Out of 3 dealers I am in touch with, 2 aren't really even aware the phone is launched in India. The third guy has been yanking my chain that it will come tomorrow, tomorrow tomorrow since Friday. I haven't even bothered to ask him the price.

    Yeah today I got a mail saying that they shipped it on Aug. 22nd - which is weird since previously they told me that they shipped it on Aug. 21st! Anyway they said no tracking info can be given because it's too small a package and they have sent it by USPS First class mail and it should reach...

    So has anyone in Delhi got it yet or has everyone purchased the Galaxy S? :P One dealer I have been talking to has been yanking me along - from Friday evening to Saturday to Monday afternoon, and now tomorrow. Typical.

    HTC wildfire or Samsung galaxy3

    ^ +1. You have some fantastic options in that range. If you can live with outdated Symbian then Nokia E72 is not all bad either. Unfortunately when it comes to Android, there isn't much in the 16k - 24k range, and you would have to look upwards of 23k for milestone, legend etc. and I suppose...
