[HTC Desire C] Aman_Arora:
my choice was dito same

Changed my choice at the last momrnt when came to know desirec is shipped with ics :D
[HTC Desire C] wilberfish:
My defy mini needed fixing so wanted a cheap temp phone. Desire c or galaxy ace...tried galaxy ace and it was poo and broke in 1 week so reluctantly got the desire c.

Really like it. With cm10 and a few tweaks it just works. Use this as my main now.
[HTC Desire C] aliireza:
i bought nexus 7 tablet so i don't need high-end cellphone

and before desire c i had xperia sola, arc s, htc hd2, incredible s, iphone 3gs, and more :D
[HTC Desire C] RestlessScreams:
The main reason for me was the small price tag.I got it for 160€ which was the highest price I could pay :S

The second reason was the small size (yes, the fact that all mobilephones are getting bigger and bigger is really grinding my gears) and there were roms (which weren't that good as I thought) :D

I came from an old Sony Ericsson Cedar which was my escape from my ****ty Sony Ericsson Xperia X1. But the Desire C really didn't dissapoint me (:
[HTC Desire C] zlizlo:
For me it was build quality, screen size (4" display devicers are just to bulky for me to carry around) low-ish price tag, and of course vast support on this exceptional community! I didn't even bother to buy sim-free one, got it locked to another carrier on a discount, unlocked it in a jiffy.

Went straight ahead and picked custom rom for it, Sensational V3 from here:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2320080 and flavored it with an 800 Mhz Prometheus kernel.

I must say I'm impressed! Coming from galaxy 5, on which plethora of various roms were installed, this one is truly a wonderful piece of work.:highfive:

In fact, I was so darn impressed, that I've finally decided to register on the board, after lurking around for years.. :p
[HTC Desire C] noahvt:
I really like this phone but it is just not enough for me!( going for a. N4)
[HTC Desire C] rex28818:
My secret is... I get my new desire c in 6K so....
[HTC Desire C] aashay960:
Used or brand new? With warranty?
[HTC Desire C] MrToastedAndroid:
Only good thing about it is the price. I used the Samsung Galaxy Ace 2x and there was lag everywhere. Unlocking the home screen, opening system apps, even the settings were laggy! The cameras are decent, and the 4in screen is OK. I would have chosen the Desire C over the Sammy because of its build quality and its community. I knew that the Sammy was sold in select countries so it wouldn't be supported by XDA, unlike the Desire C. Its what I look for in phones now lol
[HTC Desire C] mechulkalan:
I sent my Touch2 to warranty and they sent back to me this phone :)
[HTC Desire C] vega509:
this is my first smartphone, I'm a PC Mobile pay as you go user. My flip phone died after 4 years of use. When I went to the local PC Mobile store this phone was on for $59.90, the Samsung Flip was $49.95, for $10 more I thought I could not pass this one up. There is no contract or commitment on the pay as you go.

I should have bought 2. :good:
[HTC Desire C] bastard79:
this was my first smartphone too, i choose budget model cause i need only for calls, and runtastic or runkeeper app, but now i'm using it for listen music, browsing web and play spme games, so next phone must have better specs.
[HTC Desire C] Aman_Arora:
I am not sure but as far as I have heard.

Samsung provide a 600Mhz processor overclocked to 800Mhz in Ace and Y :(

To cut costs.

when I bought this phone I didn't have a lot of knowledge about technology, I PAID $400 in a store in New York
[HTC Desire C] abitrubbish:
Price.

I just got mine for £30. Pre-owned, but great condition.

I had to sell my Neus 4 last week and assumed that I'd have to get some terrible feature phone, so I'm pleasantly surprised.
[HTC Desire C] alexraptor4:
Y like this phone for this is cheap an es very fluid compared whit other low range
[HTC Desire C] feuerkette:
I bought it because I must send my HTC One back to repair,screen is broken.And I love HTC phones,for me the only choice.

send from my Nissan Juke 1.6 Dig-t
[HTC Desire C] mikee286:
bought it at my local grocery store on PC mobile prepaid to replace my old broken pc mobile prepaid phone running android 2.1. It was very nice for the price at the time and the 600mhz processor wasn't much of a setback. I think the 512 mb ram is more of a setback since any lag I experience with the phone seems to disappear when I kill all tasks. However after unlocking it and using it in the US I started experiencing problems with it rebooting for no reason. I'm not asking for help here this is just my story with the phone I have a separate thread for that. However I may just buy a better phone with dual sim functionality since I frequently travel between the US and canada.
[HTC Desire C] rex28818:
I bought it because I got it in 6000bucks.. :)
[HTC Desire C] Will_Xda:
Because it was £15 and I knew i could re-sell once it's jazzed up abit for Double maybe three times the price i paid, Instead i gave it to a family member on the grounds that i could use it to Flash roms and test mods on it etc, and they agreed... i dont think they i had any idea what i was talking about though :laugh:
[HTC Desire C] ItsVesper:
My second phone ever, wanted something nice and cheap (I had an Orange San Francisco before. Bad move on my part...)
[HTC Desire C] spcd:
It's my first smartphone. I bought this one because the store manager told me this one has great audio for music playback. Well, I'm not impressed. But I solved this issue with buying bluetooth speakers!

I also chose for HTC because I prefer not to spend my money on a company that is the most popular (Samsung). Competition is a good thing.

[HTC Desire C] SiqrCarnbon:
I Bought It because It was 2012 and I Needed and New phone to go to school with if it was 2013 would have bought a Huawei Ascend Y300 which is my new smartphone. But I really love this phone It can play games and it can do much more. I Love It
[HTC Desire C] beandroid9:
This is my First Android phone. I thought of going along with HTC as everybody has samsung now days :p well then saw XDA ever from that hevent thought of changing the phone and its been more than 1 year. Its handy and i am happy that I bought it :)
[HTC Desire C] fankool:
it was my first android, and I'm satisfied. I bought it not only because it's cheap, but also because is one of the more compact phone with a good resolution display, it's the biggest mobile phone I can carry with me without difficulties while running with sports tracker app. But I'm not sure the gps is correctly showing the distance.

However, overclocking it and removing sense interface (really nice if compared to the others) it's very fast.

My next phone could be with the same size but dual sim, but with an acceptable screen like this. And HTC still hasn't create it.
[HTC Desire C] hp6830s:
A friend of mine had same phone (idk,but looks like Desire C).

And i loved ,from 1st sight ,the only problem was the stock Rom.
[HTC Desire C] peter12345678910:

I like this brand and also i liked that except from the Internal storage was having also the micro SD support and know I realise how good the voice quality is!
[HTC Desire C] yashsoni:
I liked d specs bcoz at d time i wanted to buy d phone option i choose were xperia tipo ace duos

ace had bad gpu n tipo had smaller screen and cheap build quailty (in comparison to desire c) also a 5mp cam (but with no flash and auto focus ) which i later realised were imp to have:confused: any was after 1yr use im happy wid d phone
[HTC Desire C] anjp:
Got it from a friend and it was/is my first android. I'll probably get something upgraded next time round as I find it underpowered. Nice size and form tho!

[HTC Desire C] Bobgle:
I got it for about 40$ from some guy on facebook about half a month ago. It was a spontaneous purchase because I needed a phone as fast as possible and that was the most I could afford.

I didn't inform myself much about it before, just saw that it was okay for what I needed (WhatsApp, Facebook) and bought it. I was surprised with it, though, I didn't expect much. The Sense Firmware was horrible, though so I tried a few roms after a week, stuck with the cm10 rom (thanks cute_prince!) and now I'm very happy with it.
[HTC Desire C] Sertico:
Well my main reazón was the price of course....the sice toó...i come from a huawei w1 with wp and i missed a lot android OS. I missed the fact that i can change ROM every time i want, another razón es that i can use this Phone with just one hand it fits in my pocket and i love the desing
[HTC Desire C] Fares7850:
thanks

thanks
[HTC Desire C] AvgPhoneUser:
Well... It was my first android phone and its cost was really small...

It cost like... 60 euros :)

I was a noob back then. But in 2013 I bought a nexus 7v2 and then i wanted to hack some games. Of course they needed root(:(). So I rooted my nexus 7 (was really easy but took 3 days :eek:) and played so games yk. I still used my Desire C until 2015. Then I bought a new phone InFocus M512... But the sim card tray broke and the guys at the service said they cannot fix it :(

So, 1 month ago I was forced to switch to my Desire C. I already had a lot of knowledge about rooting etc. So I brought some life into it by rooting it and flashing CM10, and I still have to use it till my parents buy me a new phone (I'm 12). And yet, I flash new Roms and kernels EVERY DAY!

But I still want a new phone...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] angelf82:
for whoever is on ICS and wants instagram video the update from today's instagram has given ICS 4.0.4 users the ability to record and also to share ur recorded videos in your gallery. I just installed ptmr3's jedi 4 which is ICS...so ima give it a try and give you guys my experience...thnx for reading!!!
[HTC One V] somekid15:
Just thought id share something i use a lot. Bootlooped one day and realized this. Anytime rom wont boot or has problems simply;

1. Boot Recovery

2. Reflash your current rom

3. Wipe cache and dalvik

After this you should be able to boot as all system files will be back to default, but you will keep all personal settings, apps and content.

Hit thanks if i helped!

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slick530:
I have been flashing almost every incremental update from Jamal. It has been a great experience to see the improvements from every update. After flashing to the supposedly last final update before 4.3.1, I found that so far there are 2 features missing.

1. Call settings is no where to be found... I vaguely remember it was there before the update. Call forwarding is not possible through settings...

2. The ability to switch keyboards through the keyboard icon on the left side of notification bar is gone. before the update, I was able to switch to the standard Google Keyboard from the SwiftKey Keyboard. it is no longer possible now...

Can anyone confirm this?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HS™:
Call setting should be there

Go to dialer / there there should be dotted line or setting that will have all features
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slick530:
No worries, found it on the menu option in the dialer :eek:

I wonder if the original GPE ROM is the same...

But there's still no way for me to change from SwiftKey Keyboard to others without going into the Language and Input menu...

Other than that, Jamal's finaly ROM is near perfect :good:
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HS™:
Yes even on the GE rom it's the same way u can do it from dialer setting /menu only

Keyboard thing I can't check as using Sammy one

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] MrMacMax:
I really loved BB with my MDA III. Now I own a MDAc and hoped to get an uodate from Timo Beil (T-Mobile) -> nothing. Do you see any chance to get the service via "different way" ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dirty_finnagin:
Okay, so here's my story... I was goofing around with my inactive Xperia Play, trying to activate it on uPrepaid's network. I used ##7764726 to change the MIN and other settings, matching uPrepaid's settings in hopes that it would work. Alas, I was sorely mistaken. I've since shelved the device until StraightTalk brought out the Bring Your Own Phone plan. I did some research and found that my Xperia Play was eligible, so I bought the package. My Play was registered successfully and whatnot and activated on their end, but I can no longer make the *22890 call to activate my Play on my end, as I keep getting the uPrepaid activation hotline when I dial the number.

I tried doing a factory reset to no avail, I tried flashing a stock rom to the phone to no avail and I wasn't smart enough to write down all of the default values of the things I changed in the manual activation menu. SO... Does anyone have any idea as to what I can do to reset the phone ENTIRELY, including the MIN settings and everything? I need to be able to activate the phone on my end (through StraightTalk) but because of my goofing around, the activation call sends me to uPrepaid.

Any ideas? >_<

I would be most appreciative.

I'll try it out
[Android Apps and Games] killerocker:
Honestly it looks amazing and I'd love to test it out. The one feature that is basically a necessity for me is available in textra in that the app automatically turns on the mobile data temporarily to get an MMS. It was a huge pain for me since I tend to have mobile data turned off because I have a limited data plan. If that was in this I'd easily replace textra with this.
[Android Apps and Games] deanwray:

[Android Apps and Games] Mchasard:
Impatient to try it ...MMS are also included or just SMS?

Thanks

Envoyé depuis mon IQ442 avec Tapatalk
[Android Apps and Games] deanwray:
NO MMS, not even sure I want them to be honest, slow, small and costly... better to use the GDrive link sms that are in SmartMessenger... but I'm more than open to consider it. This is still very early in development, so anything that is worth it, I will add for the masses :)
[Android Apps and Games] CoCoGirl886:
I understand that it can intercept SMS messages and be used as the default texting app, but does it work the same way with Google voice texts?
[Android Apps and Games] Cancel357:
I'm in. Using sliding messaging right now but this looks promising!
[Android Apps and Games] deanwray:
Not at all, ONLY SMS afaik :)

While in testing always better to set the op mode to "Process and Passthrough" anyways, so it doesn't consume any messages, if you're not sure that is
[Android Apps and Games] deanwray:
IIRC I wanted something similar, and also to do BAND switching. Unfortunately, google took out the api's required to do that, so that it would be ALWAYS a user choice. So not sure if that will ever be possible again (post gingerbread) :(
[Android Apps and Games] deanwray:
Actually thinking about it, DO NOT TRY SmartMessenger image sending, cause it will send (until I put some controls in) FULL SIZE images. So not nice when your phone takes 2-5mb image potentially and sends it for sharing to GDrive. I will add to the dev list, image size control :) See I never thought about limited data caps previously, what with my unlimited data plan :)
[Android Apps and Games] killerocker:
I've never had a dev convince me not to try an app haha but I absolutely appreciate the honesty and good points you brought up. I'll keep an eye out for your future work and pass this one on to my friends.
[Android Apps and Games] deanwray:
Well you have some valid points, I should never assume that data is all free and limitless :) But like I say, watch out for next few days, cause I will add some image limiting to the attachments, so maybe I will have size/dimension resampling, like resize to 8k or something :) Be nice for user to control the data flow, I can imagine you have to be VERY careful because of how apps abuse and use data these days :)
[Android Apps and Games] killerocker:
Stateside, there's only 2 networks that still have unlimited data and both have horrendous service so I'm stuck in a 2 gb plan. I subscribed to the thread so I'll definitely keep an eye on it and see what develops. Overall, watching the data isn't too bad since I just keep mobile data off and turn it on as needed but I still need to keep an eye out. Oh well, ces la vie.

[Android Apps and Games] ubigred:
To Dean,

Oops, I meant SmartSms.
[Android Apps and Games] coolcapnc:
Just started testing. Loving the app so far, but really do miss the usual MMS function, so I am on board with others about adding that in, if possible. If you need someone to help test that functionality, let me know, as I have unlimited free MMS here in the US.
[Android Apps and Games] thyttel:
Like in the US mms is free here in Denmark.

This is what I pay each month.

£15 i pay and for that I have :

Unlimited talk (I can talk as much on the phone I want)

Unlimited free sms/mms, no size restrictions on mms.

6GB data included (4G network)

That's a medium sized priced package I have there are one that's smaller priced at £10 but with 2GB data.

But point being, none pay for mms here either no matter package or carrier so mms of course is important here as well and an sms program with no mms is not an option.

On the plus side, you program is one of the best looking sms programs I've ever seen and the potential is Big. Love the fluidity of everything in the program.

But as it is right now I just have the program installed and turned off and follow development. But with out mms it would never become my sms program to be.

So of course one more vote from me to add in mms.

I like the OPTION to use Google drive to send pictures, but only as an option. Always good to have options.

Thomas

Sendt fra min HTC One med Tapatalk 4
[Android Apps and Games] deanwray:
I can tell you now, MMS is probably the biggest, hardest and often not even fully functioning thing to add on android.

1. There is no support for MMS in any api

2. There is no standards of implementation for any custom variances

3. Because of 1 & 2 manuf. can do what they want

4. Because operators are d*cks, they can and do change it also

5. Because it's heavy on server dependance that can have variances based on operator also

6. ... well... I feel like I'm ranting now...

It's ON THE LIST, and I will give it a good shot I think :)

May need to make a bit of money 1st, like I said in previous posts, but it's there on the list of stuff to do :)

[MENTION=293916]deanwray[/MENTION] - Last app update works fine, got notification on message sent ( it's not when the other person received the message, right? It's when the message was sent to network server ). Also i've noticed that screen turns on when new message arrives ( this will be an option? )

But i have a problem... Sometimes when i send a message through this app, i receive message from "Credit" ( self-explanatory? ) that says "Destination forbidden". Though i never had this problem on stock SMS app, i don't see what it could be the problem. :rolleyes:
[Android Apps and Games] xCovErtWolFx757:
I would say;

-Mms, sort of because I have a Samsung phone and don't want it not working

-Customizable icons. (if you need some help I can make a batch, also I'm picky at icons, another reason why I stick with stock)

-Theme/ui creator(I'm very picky on sms themes. That's why I always stick to stock)

-Smart sms(this is last because the dependency of having to have the recipient have smart messenger too)
[Android Apps and Games] blz_phnx:
recipient needs to have smart messenger, sent a message to someone who has stock message
