I heard for them from this thread and before I ordered it from them I read a lot of customer's comments and they are 80-90% positive. For now my impression for this site is good I asked them some questions and they reply me same day with few hours delay. Now only thing that I can do is to wait shipping and to hope that my phone will come successfully in my hands :)
[Desire General] wankingweiner:
thats great news. Could u link me to some customer comments? I cant find any with a google search
[Desire General] s4vva:
Hi I ordered my Hero from them last year, no problems.
[Desire General] redrazr7791:
Ordered 3 phones from them. Had to return one (Not what I wanted) and the return process was smooth and painless :D

Communication is very good and I know for a fact that they ship fast. Also they have some good package deals and will do price-matching.
[Desire General] wankingweiner:
nice! looks like im ordering from them :D
[Desire General] Status Flow:
Does anyone know of any places selling the desire that ship to the US and also offer warranties to US customers?

Thanks

[Desire General] leegil:
I have just pre-ordered from Handtec. I agree the reviews looked positive mostly. This is the cheapest at the moment at £390 Sim Free.

We will see after the 7th April.
[Desire General] Arkish:
I have just pre-ordered from clove. £399 inc. delivery, now just need to forget about it until the 7th/8th or I will be like a kid at Christmas!
[Desire General] wankingweiner:
Im so eager to pre-order, but dont quite have the money at this instant. Will they charge my account now if i was to preorder, or only when they get stock?
[Desire General] Carlo626:
usually they only charge your card prior to delivery - but make sure by asking them as not everyone follows the same rules
[Desire General] indyjonesUK:
Ordered Mine!

Pre ordered mine last night, so my mint touch diamond 2 will be going up for sale. Good bye TD2 it was fun, but looking forward to the desire with the 'just works' andriod :D
[Desire General] TEAM17:
Due date at handtec.co.uk : 29 march ? Reliable ?
[Desire General] nubbin:
Most places will e-mail when stock arrives to ask if you still want it. there's probably a clause in the Sale of goods Act which says pre-selling cannot proceed without authorisation from card holder. In any case, you would have at least a 7-day cooling off period to return it. HTH
[Desire General] n-j-f:
I switched my order to Handtec this morning when their website was saying 5 April. I pointed out to them that was Easter Monday and they said it might be just before or just after and they were very hopeful that the date wouldn't slip.

Just had another look and their website now says 29 March! Unfortunately, I was just too late to phone them to ask if it had really been brought forward. Will have to phone tomorrow. I hope it's right! :)

Sorry, just saw TEAM17's post. Wish I'd noticed it earlier so could have phoned them in time today.
[Desire General] TEAM17:
They replied to my email :)
[Desire General] Indomitable:
I'm very excited that the device will be shipped at 29th, but because it's Easter here in Bulgaria from 2th to 5th I'm doubt that it will arrive before that.
[Desire General] A|ex:
i have a legend atm but going to sell it and go for a EVO 4G, i was going to go for Desire but when i saw the HTC EVO 4g (supersonic) which is HD2 on drugs and 2x better than the Desire i thought... yes please
[Desire General] wankingweiner:
yeah i want that phone SOOO bad now. Im having doubts about pre-ordering the Desire now. But one problem though.... i live in Europe :(

Any ideas when we'll get a 4.3" android phone here?
[Desire General] ohyeahar:
Just thought I should share a bit of news...

I emailed Clove about canceling my order because Handtec was shipping on 29 Mar versus Clove's date which was 7 Apr.

Clove then spoke with HTC and confirmed that they will also ship on 29 Mar. This is now reflected on Clove's website as well.
[Desire General] TEAM17:
I never ordered a phone in UK or anywhere else.

I live in France. Should I buy a new wall charger or do you think that the one provided with the Desire supports both 110v and 220 V ?

Thanks
[Desire General] n-j-f:
As far as I am aware, the voltage in France is the same as in the UK, 230 volts. You would probably just need a cheap adapter, from UK 3 pin to Euro 2 pin. It is the US which uses 110 volts. You may be lucky that the phone may come with a universal charger with different plug attachments. Of course, you should also be able to charge it from your computer using the included MicroUSB cable.
[Desire General] Indomitable:
This is interesting - With what kind of power plug the GSMs are distributed in England ? I ordered it my Desire from English site and Do I need a converter to Europlug ?
[Desire General] Indomitable:
Ok, I sent an e-mail to handtec with questions about release date, included memory card and the power plug and here is the answer :

Thanks for your email,

With regards to this thats is correct, the desire should be available as of the 29th, however the card has not yet been confirmed, there are rumours of 2,4 and 8GB cards being in th box but we will know this on the release day,

The device will also come with a UK 3 pin plug but you may need to purchase an adaptor for usage,

Please advise if we can assist you further,

Kind regards

i pre ordered mine from prepaymania, i email them today and they are advising 12th of april for their shipping date :-(
[Desire General] zomig:
Well I have now ordered my desire from clove, I have the HTC HD2 and I am not unhappy with this device but wanted to try the android OS. If ok i will then sell my HD2 and probably get the supersonic when it gets released but this will do till then. Hope it lives up to the hype.

Regards GPS software , I think tomtom were making a version to work but dont think that has happened yet (this will mess up my live subscription with them for cameras and traffic) Hopefully they will get that sorted.

Not sure on what other gps software comes with these devices.
[Desire General] pingu7931:
My contract expires on the 3rd April - YAY!

So glad I can get this for free and £5 less than I'm currently paying for my G1 - and £75 to sell my G1 - though the girlfriend wants the G1. Ho hum!

Can't wait to show it off to some iPhone friends after 18 months of snide comments!
[Desire General] nomonti:
delays

Handtec webpage update:

HTC UK have informed us today 06/04/10 that all HTC desires have been delayed until the 12-13 April affects all UK retailers.

:(
[Desire General] redrazr7791:
Just wanted to BOLD that because I am sure some people will think that the other resellers will have stock. HTC...your killing me :(
[Desire General] pingu7931:
Damn!!! Are you sure - I ordered mine on Saturday at contract renewal. So damn keen to get this phone :mad:

Anyone else renewing I got it on T-Mobile for £30 per month with voicemails and 08* numbers included in credit
[Desire General] TeCH-Guruz:
well i spoke to mobiles.co.uk todays as i recieved mine but the screen is all pink and they told me they have 53 in stock so it cant be affecting all uk suppliers
[Desire General] redrazr7791:
Who knows what's going on anymore.

Obviously something is up betweem Handtec and HTC. Whether it be a stock issue or HTC decided to pull their shipment to fix these various problems that people are reporting...for those who have ordered, all we can do is just sit back and wait :(
[Desire General] bcmobile:
I got an email from Clove today (last night UK time) saying that they expect their 1000 odd handsets to arrive over the next few days, starting today (7/4).

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] shiner88:
i have developed this app for clean Rollup for Omnia but i have added some features to clean Rollup for every DPI/RES and some Langs

I Post it here If SomeOne Need it:

(Moderators: Sorry if I have Posted in wrong section, Move the 3d in the right place)

Lasts leaked Builds are Rollup..

all the dpi/res/modules in one Directory ...

The Cleaning process il really boring..I was very tired of doing manually everytime the porting!

So I've Opened My visual studio and i have Created this small utility!

Features:

-Select DPI-RES-LangCode

-RecMod of AdobeFlash,Browsing,Browingie(if you want)

-Delete hd.dll and osaxst0.dll from the xip(if you want)

The Steps to have a clean Rollup are very simple:

1)Copy recMod.exe in the rollup folder

2)Drag And Drop the folder of the rollup on the exe

3) now will start the ReadOnly attributes Cleaning

4)Select DPI

5)Select RES

6)Enter LangCode(now supported ITA ENG GER FRA NDL PLK ESP)[ask me for support other langcode...please don't ask to support EA code for now...i'm working on it)

7)Will start the cleaning process

8Aafter this, the program asks if delete JUNK(no usefull lang/dpi/packages) directory

9)Choose if delete hd.dll and osaxst0.dll from the xip or not(necessary step for Omnia ROM)

10)Choose if recmod AdobeFlash,Browsing,Browingie

DONE!

Now in the RollUp Dir we Have 3 new Folder:

XIP: All the Xip Module/Files

SYS: SYS Modules, Selected DPI/LANG

JUNK:no Usefull files/dirs (This folder will be present only if you don't say yes to its deleting)

After the Cleaning Process check the SYS beacouse sometimes in the RollUp there are Other folder/modules added by 3rd part(example in 28230 Build there ìs FingerKeyboard package)

hi,

does anyone can help please?

i have done hardspl and then tryed to permanent unlock cid.

after it failed, my phone only starts in bootloader mode.

i tryed to flash many roms, but phone doesn't start.

only bootloader appears.

what can i do? please help me. anyone must know what to do...please don't let me kick the phone on the wall

greetz
[G4] -MyHTC-:
I told you in the other thread “YOU BRICKED YOUR PHONE” the warning was clear that you had to remove the hard SPL and you didn’t, so now you have an expensive paper weight.

Sorry to say, nobody has been able to recover from this.
[G4] deadredn209:
bricked is not pemanent

The only way to truly brick it is if it dont boot at all, if u have red green blue boot loader on u can flash [wizard love rom] worked for me.
[G4] -MyHTC-:
You obviously didn’t brick your phone, however lenzen24 did.

lenzen24 has a G4 IPL and a G3 SPL this equals a brick, unless someone can get a G4 SPL back in the phone it can’t be recovered.

To my knowledge nobody has recovered from this.
[Nexus One General] TitoXx:
I currently have the Blackberry internet + 400 messages for $24.99.I just received my Nexus one today and checked the t mobile website for the android data service.Since when did the plan jump to $30 and no messages included?:mad:.

It used to be the same price when I had my G1.Will I be able to just use the Nexus one with the blackberry plan??:confused:
[Nexus One General] joshyth1012:
it's that way ever since the Nexus One was released. It's still $25 for G1, or mytouch.
[Nexus One General] TitoXx:
So far my nexus is working just fine on the blackberry web plan.I'm not gonna change anything...don't want to loose the 400 messages.
[Nexus One General] Talderon:
I went from a MyTouch to Nexus and didn't change anything (even though someone told me I needed the Nexus data plan) and all is working well. :)
[Nexus One General] smot13:
I went from Blackberry to Nexus and haven't changed my plan. Nexus works fine. Although I was trouble shooting some exceptionally poor battery life problems and on a different message board a couple people were indicating that battery life is affected poorly if you don't call TMO and have them switch something.

Sounded like crud to me, but a couple people were buying into it *shrug*
[Nexus One General] McFroger3:
There is no Nexus data plan, there is only the Android Device data plan. Which is 30 bucks. So if you already have it your fine.
[Nexus One General] Housetek:
completely right.

it shows up as Android data or G1bogo data in the computers.

also for even more and even more plus, the pricing will be different.
[Nexus One General] wolfman87:
It changed when the moved to the 'Even More' and 'Even More Plus' plans at the end of last year (I think that's when they did it). They also dropped the MyFaves at the same time.

[Hero CDMA General] cwbeasley:
(Update: 2/23/10: To replicate the problem, use a bluetooth headset, make a call, then walk away from the phone until you're almost out of range. That's exactly the problem I have when I'm holding the device, it doesn't matter where I am distance wise, the best audio call quality I get STARTS where most phones get when you're too far from the device. Ideas?)

After weeks (3 straight) of searching, I have to finally ask.

Does anyone else have an issue with the quality of their bluetooth connection (calls only) regardless of brand and distance from the phone?

I've purchased nearly 13 different bluetooth devices trying to fix this. Changing the distance from the actual handset (experimenting if there's a different to if the Hero is plugged in or not), the price of the bluetooth unit, what type it was (speaker phone unit only, carkit, headphones, ad2p or not, etc etc), and I still have a poor call quality call.

Reception isn't an issue, I've tried from full bars to almost no bars, and in every instance, when I disconnected the bluetooth and went back to using either speakerphone, headphones, or directly on the device, the noise went away.

You can only hear the noise when the remote party speaks, and it really sounds like the old analog bag phones in bad reception. Is there anything as far as changing settings on the bluetooth to improve the audio quality?
[Hero CDMA General] Avalaunchmods:
not really. the BT module sends information to the receiver and the receiver decodes that into audio. so you cant really set an EQ for BT with android at least so it basically depends on the receiving unit. while music is playing turn the volume down to 75% on the phone and thats the best quality you will get. im an audiophile and it works for me.
[Hero CDMA General] Dan330:
I have a Plantonics Stereo BT.

It works great on my Hero... Much better than my HTC Diamond!
[Hero CDMA General] klbjr:
Haven't had any trouble from my Jawbone 1. The sound quality isn't as good as it was on my TP, TP2 or Pre but it's ok. Haven't had any weird noises. But it does randomly disconnect from my Hero. Well the phone says it is still connected but I get no call notifications through it and when I answer, the audio is through the handset. Even right after I finish talking to someone through the BT. Gonna have to chalk it up to the Hero cause I've had no issuse with it on any other phones. Best BT ever in my opinion.
[Hero CDMA General] keeneraver:
Yeah, I don't know. I have used the Jawbone II, Jawbone Prime, Moto H12, Moto H790, and Plantronics Voyager Pro all with no problems in sound quality, also audio quality is very important to me because I do have some hearing loss. My call quality with the Hero isn't quite as good as with my old Blackberry Curve, but it is still very functional as I use it at least an hour everyday. If you have gone through that many headsets it is quite possibly the device itself.
[Hero CDMA General] cwbeasley:
I don't know, I have 3 Hero's and I honestly don't like the quality of sound on any of them. One of them is just straight stock. I just wish I could get it with a clear quality as my old dumbphones have. I think I've been helped to discover the answer to my question, thank you all!
[Nexus One General] potatocannon4:
So I keep reading how the nexus one is having mediocre sales (about 20,000 a month), and I can't help but think: would this be the case if it were offered on verizon wireless. I currently own a droid eris for verizon and and am patiently waiting to get updated to 2.1, but would pony up 500 bucks to simply jump right into a much better hand set, not that the eris is bad, the nexus one just kicks ass.

so my questions: How many people aren't buying nexus one's simply because their waiting for it on the verizon network?
[Nexus One General] JoshHart:
I thought it was 20,000/week, either way, I think the slow sales have a multitude of factors, being online only is definitely the biggest I think. A lot of people go into stores and look at phones and end up buying one there, without this one on one experience a lot of people that don't really know much about phones will never be exposed to one. T-Mobile being the only carrier is definitely another factor, I think their sales will increase once it hits Verizon and Vodaphone, but probably nothing crazy from Verizon. Once again I think not being in stores will hurt them because none of the sales people in the store are going to tell people they should go online and look at the Nexus One when they have the chance to sell them something like the Droid right there in the store. Also, when a customer see's the Droid, is the average consumer going to notice the differences between the Nexus One and Droid? What's an extra 400mhz to the average joe. Maybe just my opinion, but if Google really want's to move these things to people aside from the technofiles they need them in stores in front of everyday customers. Who knows, maybe they'll gain more traction as more people start to hear about the Nexus and google.com/phone but I still think without putting them in peoples faces at stores they're not gonna throw up the legendary numbers they could with a phone of this quality.
[Nexus One General] SiNJiN76:
Yeah...maybe if they give the N1 owners some bigger bullets. I mean...I don't mind sharing (I actually do)...but why give everyone 2.1?:confused: That gives the N1 owners nothing special. Unless GooG's got something special in store for us.:D

Plus I think Google didn't advertise the N1 because they just wanted to get their feet wet in the game. We da Guinea Pigs!:eek:

Anyway, when Verizon get the N1...they'll do more of those Bad Ass commercials they made for the Droid.
[Nexus One General] Housetek:
its gotten some pretty bad press during the release. Alot of issues and problems that couldnt be fixed with live help.

I remember the first release week i had about 10 or so calls a day into my tmobile store of very angry n1 owners saying this or that doesnt work.

And even more people comming in and asking if they could look at one or asking why they arent able to upgrade to an n1.

Even as a employee i felt kinda cheesed that i couldn't get the n1 for my normal employee tmobile phone discount.

I think people are waiting for few things.

Either for it to come to stores and for it to have live customer service, or for all the bugs be fixed.

i expect it to sell a lot better when its on more carriers and all the issues have been worked out
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
It was 20,000/week or 80,000/month. Really not bad & impressive considering how it was marketed. Once the N1 goes global, then I think the numbers will sky rocket! ;):cool:
