It's not really a case of removing functionality although to a user, it would seem like that. When updating the core android frameworks from one version to another, you merge lots of code into your own repository.

Now I know from experience that fm is very heavy in frameworks so when you merge the new stuff, you copy over the old stuff that had it in. A conscious decision was probably made that re adding fm was not worth the huge effort.

Actually I'm willing to bet that my Rom is the only one where someone (me) actually removed fm support manually. It was a massive job so I doubt anyone else would do it...its as hard as adding it.

If you were to ask me why I removed it. It was s personal Rom and didn't want the extra bloat.of something I wouldn't use. I live in the UK where radio is really poor

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seeding11:
Me too, version 0.4.1.5, stock hboot with a2sd on a ext4 partition. It's the first beta that I've ever tried (noob alert!) and I'm quite impressed with it in the 24 hours that I've had it. Almost everything that I use regularly is working. I was previously running Teppic74's gingerbread ROM and would probably still be using it (never ever had a problem) if my tablet (TF101) hadn't been upgraded to ICS. I miss the polish of an HTC ROM and Sense a tiny bit but I don't miss the bloat of it all. I did try CM7 briefly but it wasn't for me - please don't shoot!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] happy-kat:
I was using Teppic gingerbread rom too (good and stable for me), I had a choice either add the A2CD suport and a Ext4 partition or make a change.

So I just went for the Coolexe ICS rom, so far it is OK and nice some really great features and has been stable, internet browsing is way better the new browser is faster and better options, video format playing is brilliant now playing stuff I could not before. I prefer the theme and icons in GB though. I would love the Data Useage element that is supposed to be in ICS (appears it is a battery drain) but I can't find it on this rom plus the processor is over clocked now which I am dubious of but have discovered how to reduce it if that bothered. All in all it is staying on.

My limitations are S-on stock Hboot and needing sense.

I'm also using Sandvold's 0.4.1.5 ICS. Really enjoying it so far, this being the first non-Sense Rom I've used. I'm slightly shocked at how fast my phone runs with ICS compared to Sense.

The only problem I've got with the ROM is that the browser doesn't want to sync to Google. Everything else syncs fine (Calandar, Gmail, Contacts etc), and I can sign in to Gtalk without a problem.

I've found no guidance from Sandvold's thread thus far, so either it's a problem so common that no one bothers mentioning it any more, or it's specific to my phone..

Hello!

You can't flash a new ROM without root access. There are many ROM's out there and most of them have forums on this site, but you can't flash any of them unless your phone is rooted. Also you can only flash .zip files not .exe files, they are completely different.

If you want to start customising your device, I'd recommend downloading unrevoked, (google it), it's a one click rooting program that will install a custom recovery, allowing you to then flash new ROM's. As far as I'm aware, you can access the recovery by holding down the back button and power button, taking you to the fastboot, which from that you can get to the bootloader and then your custom recovery, rather than using the volume button which is in your case broken :) best of luck, and have fun flashing roms! Best thing I ever did with my desire..

Back to the thread though, I'm currently running Sandvold's ICS rom! I think it's awesome, really like Android 4.0 and despite the current known bugs, it works quite well, well enough for me to be using as my daily rom!

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benjarmin:
Damn! Forgot about the volume keys once you were in boot loader. Ok, what program are you using? If your not already, try unrevoked for the Desire. I can't post the link because I don't have enough posts.

Without volume keys, you can still get too recovery. If you root your phone using unrevoked, you could then go to the market and download an app called quick boot. From this you'll be able to reboot into recovery, and do the usual stuff. You could also try the ROM manager app once rooted if you like. If you need a ROM to have the Arabic language, just check first, usually answered or mentioned in the sticky of the ROM forums.

As someone said above though, check out the forums on here about rooting and flashing, as all the stuff I'm telling you is stuff I've learnt from reading the same stuff and it's all invaluable!

Best of luck!

I needed something faster and tried mildwild oxygen roms, very nice and with go launcher and go backup i essentially replicated a lightweight miui experience.

But now I have switched to aurora v6, wanted to see if there are useful sense roms. I love the rsk roms, but sense 3.5 on desire... Better in theory, same goes for ics. Very nice eyecandy but too sluggish for daily use in my opinion.
