i say send it back, every one will end up paying for t-mobile mistakes, companies don't lose mony they just charge there customers more.

well ring them up and ask for a returns envelope, then if they don't provide one after 14 day the product is legally yours. (im not a lawyer)
[Desire General] gogol:
Believe me ... The nature works in balance :)

Day and night, right and wrong ... you got the idea.

If you dont order it, it is not yours, send it back ...

Otherwise, nature will take something from you to "balance" what you "owe" (because you dont return it). Probably not immediately, but later.

:D
[Desire General] irkan:
good choice! :)
[Desire General] vman81:
Did you unpack them? I'd really like to know if you are seeing any difference in colour, especially if anything is more pink one either phone.
[Desire General] scotch whisky:
I'd be inclined to open them both and then send the worse one back!

You should check for screen quality - Pinkness and faulty pixels.

Buttons - Correct travel and action.

Case condition.

Just my opinion!
[Desire General] Raminder1992:
No don't send it back! :)

It is a blessing .... people say what goes around comes around. Maybe you did something good before and you are getting rewarded lol

Nah ... honestly if you send it back you are a good person ... many people say they would but honestly would they actually?
[Desire General] zippyioa:
Keeping it would be classed as theft under the theft act:

"A person is guilty of theft if he dishonestly appropriates property belonging to another with the intention of permanently depriving the other of it"

Although you haven't actually "stolen" it yourself due to having two delivered following another persons error, if you were to keep it, you have committed theft AS YOU KNEW YOU SHOULD ONLY HAVE ONE!!

The theft act (which is available here if you are unsure: http://www.swarb.co.uk/acts/1968TheftAct.shtml ) refers to this in section 5 - belonging to another

Part (4) of section 5 states "Where a person gets property by another's mistake, and is under an obligation to make restoration (in whole or in part) of the property or its proceeds or of the value thereof, then to the extent of that obligation the property or proceeds shall be regarded (as against him) as belonging to the person entitled to restoration, and an intention not to make restoration shall be regarded accordingly as an intention to deprive that person of the property or proceeds."

In plain English if you keep it you are a thief so by choosing to return it, thebosh has not only been honest, but also doesnt risk facing criminal charges for theft. :D
[Desire General] maxiedw:
I actually had a similar thing. It was a store on the internet. I had ordered a phone, and still needed to return a signed contract. I had changed my mind and never returned the contract. Two weeks later I received the phone. I called the company and they said they had accidently send the phone, without activating it with th provider. They said it was their mistake. I was able to keep the phone but they asked me politely to return it. That is what I did. As a reward they gave me a coupon to buy a new phone with huge discount if I ever need a new phone.
[Desire General] thebosh:
Well, I'm typing this on my new Desire, & so far so good! Have not called t-mobile yet...will do so a bit later. The other one remains in its box, for now!
[Desire General] Jabbypants:
Bit later do you mean 2-3 months :D, what a surprise that would be fantastic.
[Desire General] Ed-UK:
In contrast to what Zippyioa says above I have found this on the Consumer Direct (Government) Website, which says:

So I think you might have a right to keep it, but to be on the safe side, send them a recorded delivery letter, or at least get proof of posting of your letter (free from the Post Office), saying you've received it and they can come and get it if they want it back.

--See the template letter on the website that you just have to fill in the blanks for! Might also be worth sending Consumer Direct an email or giving them a call (on your shiny new Desire of course!) to discuss it before you do anything else.
[Desire General] irkan:
guys this is a moral issue, seriously, despite wither its legal to keep it or not, its not good to keep things that does not belong to you, you will suffer the consequences sooner or later if you did. i dont want to start preaching now, am just saying what is the right thing to do
[Desire General] redrazr7791:
I would call them up and tell them what happened. The idea of "flipping" the phone and making a quick dollar sounds nice, but IMHO it wouldn't be worth it.

By calling up T-Mobile and letting them know, they may take your act of honesty into consideration and give you some sort of credit :D
[Desire General] dainesefreak:
The same thing happened to my mate they sent him two Desires on the 26th. He called them and they sent out a returns envelope which they credited him £5.40 back for postage.

I wouldn't hold you breath for a reward.;)
[Desire General] thebosh:
Nope, no reward... but a one way ticket to heaven! :p
[Desire General] :
I also got two and I also got two sims/phone numbers. Called returns and sent it back. wainting for them to remove the second number from my accound and bill.
[Desire General] ritdaw:
No wonder there are some many stock issues in the UK!
[Desire General] irkan:
LMAO, made my day
[Desire General] supasye:
all this morals and legal crap who cares, what goes around comes around BS, maybe this is t-mobile coming around. if you can get away with it just sell it or give it to someone.
[Desire General] reallylame:
why don't you pass it to me? I will suffer the consequences :p

and if T-Mo charges you for it, I will pay it. Hahaha.

Honestly, it belongs to you, so its your call, whatever you want to do with it.
[Desire General] panda986:
TBH, I think you should follow the consumer protection act. Just let them know and see what happened. If they didn't process your letter then again its their fault and it is obvious that they don't care. Surely some business needs to be taught a lesson so they will improve their processes to serve customer better.

If you had made your choice though to send it back, good for you for not sell your soul (though I am not a strong believer since I am a scientist/technologist).

I am still waiting for mine from MPD.. :(
[Desire General] pr0orz1337:

[Desire General] supasye:
oohhhhhh theres definately something there!

hay algo! hahahahah!
[Desire General] OnlinePredator:
Nope you are wrong. There is no legally yours anywhere. Not at any stage is it yours legally. At any stage the company can request for the item back. If it has been opened and used etc, then you pay for the sum.

It is against the law, and you can be persecuted. So no it does not belong to him, and if he gives it to you, it is him that is breaking the law still.
[Desire General] pphillips001:
A similar thing happened to me. 140310 HTC Desires were accidentally delivered to my door with a note saying 'entire uk consignment' - I guess they got the date I ordered mixed up with the quantity. (It would've been a lot less in US)

Should I tell T-Mobile? I'm currently arranging boxes to make 'Desire' furniture.

PS to make things worse - the delivery guy woke me up at 7am!! Strooth!

[Android Themes] iamarock:
Hello All:

I tried running Htcclay's ROMs on my device because looks very nice and are pretty fast and smooth, but I don´t like the ram-hack thing because i use to run some games on my phone

Also, installing non-ram hack kernels on this ROM makes the bootscreen white, while in the last version (Fasttest 3.1) the phone doesn´t even boot

So this request is to know if someone has a theme of a metamorph pack in order to get the Fasttest "look and feel" on the latest Super D release

I know that someone ported a metamorph theme of Fasttest but with selections in green, I´d like one port with the original Htcclay look

Many thanks

Rgds
[Android Themes] Pfeffernuss:
This is not true, running 3.1 without Ram Hack as we speak... With the white bootscreen though, but that doesn't bother me.

when i want to write with my physical keyboard in opera, just one letter is written and i can't add more letters.

I can't write with the keyboard and if i want to write something, i'm just can write with virtual keyboard...

With Internet Explorer, i don't have this problem...

Someone know the solutions?

Thanks a lot, and sorry for my english!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Draken Korin:

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prolusitano:
My version is Opera 9.7, i have Cuetfiss 2.7 Extreme Rom, but i have already this problem with other rom...
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Angelusz:
This is related to the localization. Opera isn't configured for each type of HW keyboard. Most opera 10 versions work fine, but even there some don't. There's a localization patch for Opera 10 if it doesn't work - I can't say for sure if it exists for 9.7. Easiest fix in my opinion is just to install a ROM that has this issue sorted, can save a lot of trouble.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pyth27:
Opera 9.7 has never officially been released. The version you got was preinstalled on some HTC devices without hardware keyboards and therefore does not support it. As far as I know there is no way to fix this. Use Opera Mobile 9.5, Opera Mobile 10 or Opera Mini instead.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prolusitano:
Yeah that's i'm going to do... download another opera.

Thanks guy!:D
[Desire General] moran679:
When can we expect the desire to be sold in retail shops?

I'm planning a trip to spain and I know a few people who will be in france\germany\UK in a few weeks, is there any information about the release dates for retail shops in those places and the cost?

Thank you.
[Desire General] zippyioa:
The desire is in retail shops - I got one yesterday from a T-Mobile store :cool:
[Desire General] zippyioa:
I got it on a contract £10 per month for 24 months plus £164 up front - it wasn't in stock PAYG although Carphone Warehouse should have them for around £400
[Desire General] skraggy_uk:
Got mine off the local Vodafone shop yesterday. They had two delivered on the release date, and in store techy got one, I got the other.

CPW had them too, at least available according to the store and on display, also local Virgin media store and T-Mobile had them too.
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Got mine Friday (2nd) in CPW on upgrade on VF - unbranded and unlocked :D
[Desire General] moran679:
Can I buy the phone from a t-mobile, vodaphone or orange store without a contract?

If so, how much will it cost, and will it be unlocked?

And are there no retail shops to buy the phone in, unlocked and unbranded in the full package?
[Desire General] zippyioa:
They might do but don't quote me!

As far as I know Carphone Warehouse are selling it SIM free for £399 when you buy a £10 top up. The only issue is lack of stock so I would call around first.
[Desire General] Raain:
I dont know how many of you are in or around CEntral London but you should try the CPW in the Selfridges basement floor, they had stock of both Sim free and Plan based. Got my Sim Free yesterday :)
[Desire General] Madgerr:
All the T-Mobile stores in the Bristol area have sold out.

Same story with CPW (although they only provide it on contract for Vodafone & Orange).

Many phone calls later I've sourced one 30 miles away and am sad enough to drive to collect it now! :)
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Wasn't in Wells by chance? That's where I got mine last Friday...
[Desire General] Madgerr:
I have returned with a Desire in hand.

If anyone in the South West needs a Desire, the Swindon branch of T-Mobile has 2 left. (All 3 Bristol stores, Newport, Gloucester, Cheltenham, Bath & Chippenham have sold out).

Now to wait the three hour charge time. Good excuse to get some paperwork out the way to pay the bills :)
[Desire General] zippyioa:
If you need to unlock it be careful not to do the 15 EUR option on HTCCode as it didn't work, although they did refund me.

They do have a post in their forum which let's you send then 25 EUR by papal. Got my unlock code a few hours later
[Desire General] Madgerr:
Thanks for the advice but I'll be happy enough using it with my t-mob contract. May unlock it after upgrading to HTC xxxxx in 18 months time though to maximise its value on ebay ;)
[Desire General] zippyioa:
I needed to unlock now as I still have a £35 a month contract with Vodafone until Jan 2011.

At worst I will pay an extra £10 a month for my T-mobile contract, at best I may use it instead of Vodafone from Jan

Hope you enjoy the Desire, only had mine 48 hours but I am already VERY happy!

[Touch2 Themes and Apps] TangerineTractor:
This thread SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN CLOSED (IMHO) - that was not a sufficient answer.

The answer is that although you can't actually remove the application as it is pre-installed in the ROM, you can remove the shortcut icon from your start screen by using file explorer to browse to \windows\start menu\programs and delete any icon shortcuts in there that you don't want. The start screen is full of icons I never use, and I always delete them to make the screen more useable.

You can also move icons around the start screen - if you are on wm6.5, click and hod the icon then select 'move to top' to move it up the screen. If you are on 6.5.5, vlivk and hold the icon then drag it to where you want it to be.

Hope this helps.
[Touch2 Themes and Apps] mirost1:
So, i got how to move them, but how do you remove them??? :)
[Touch2 Themes and Apps] TangerineTractor:
Use File Explorer. brows to MtY Device.. Windows... Start Menu... Programs, then click and hold on the unwanted icon and select 'delete'
[Desire General] Cleargrey:
In short, I've synced contacts between Gmail and my phone. However I have contacts on my phone, that do not appear on Gmail as I've mentioned in another post. In fact, I've got about 715 contacts that are supposed to be synced but 615 on my Gmail under All Contacts.

However I think I've figured something out.

Even though I've sent a support request to HTC, I don't think this is a handset issue simply because while some issues are probably initial sync duplicates or fragments (which I did find - I think) I've got entries like a restauurant which I know I have been to, but appears on my phone and not on Gmail. Now, considering the phone only got contacts from Gmail, either my Gmail has some data that I can't see (and I've searched in a few ways), or my phone is quite a smart smartphone.

Me thinks it's Google Gmail. Any ideas?

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Yann_H:
To me Nanogroove rocks! Great interface, etc...

The only trouble is the data consumption...

My data plan (Unlimited but restricted above 1GB) is over every month.

That's the reason why I made a little soft, called Keep Groovy, in order to store on the device the song I listen the most to reduce this data consumption!

It's available here in french and here in English with Google translation

At this time, the soft is in French, I apologize for the inconvenience.

If enough english speaking people are interested I could make an english version.

This Device run only in Bootloader mode(tri color screen etc)

Problem is.... this phone not have a Official/Ship firmware
[HTC Monet] tobbbie:
Well then the sequence is:

Hard-Reset (L+R Softkey method)

R2SD backup (where can you get THAT? - Even how can you make that, on a GoldCard possibly?)

Official firmware (see above)

Gold Card will not help for loading a cooked ROM as it still needs a signed ROM (despite ignoring the Carrier).
[HTC Monet] Nokser:
Hard-Reset (L+R Softkey method) -> Not Working

R2SD backup (where can you get THAT? - Even how can you make that, on a GoldCard possibly?) -> Not Working

Official firmware (see above) -> Not Find, and not get from Virgin Mobile/HTC
[HTC Monet] tobbbie:
Sad situation - you will have to google around, possibly find owners where you could get at R2SD backup from (if that works for this device). I found this query not so long ago: http://forums.phone-tools.cn/showthread.php/31636-Htc-lobster-700tv-how-can-i-unlock-with-xtc-clip-%28virgin-mobile%29

Do you know if this device has the M-Systems DiscOnChip (like older Wizard and Typhoon(Hurricane/Tornado) or already newer/other encrypted storage?

You could as well try the guys at IMEI-check.UK - they are very knowledgeable and may have a system backup of the supported devices in their drawer (just in case..). Maybe they can fully CID Unlock the SPL on that device and allow the flashing of a cooked ROM (is there any)?

[HTC Monet] grayme:
My dad still has his Monet on the stock ROM.

IF you can give me simple instructions to follow to dump the ROM, I can do it when I next see him (within the next few months).
[HTC Monet] tobbbie:
Safest method should be to have a GoldCard created and then do a R2SD backup on that card. The R2SD command should be available from the "GoldCard - SuperCID" SPL.

If that works, nothing on the device itself has to be changed and the complete ROM is dumped on the card. In turn that memory card can then be dumped to a file, zipped and shared.
