[Windows Mobile Themes] mike2nl:
This is an excellent idea...
[Windows Mobile Themes] Cobra2:
This just looks awaysome mate, great work :D Can't wait for ur release ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Overloaded:
i think you should remove the 'fade' and just take the real GTX color.. the dark grey.

Then it fits way better with the theme ;)

[Desire Accessories] ephumuris:
I like the leather style flip cases and was going to order a cheapish one off Ebay but seen a review of a similar one on Amazon and it said the magnet from the fastener had left a mark on the screen!

Not sure which one to go for to actually protect my Desire instead of ruining it!
[Desire Accessories] jah:
The Noreve case looks great but I found that it does not fully protect the corners of the Desire. I now have two scratched corners - from dropping my Desire.
[Desire Accessories] micks_address:
i just got my noreve case last night.. very nice.. but as said.. does not protect corners.. hoping i never drop mine :(
[Desire Accessories] DJGibbon:
I've got the one pictured in this thread (pics on that page, details on first page) and I'm very happy with it. Quit epricey ut very nicely built and feels secure.
[Desire Accessories] poldie:
One thing any case with magnets (to keep the case closed) will do will be to confuse the compass in your phone meaning Google Maps/Goggle/Sky etc will not work properly.
[Desire General] tibey:
I really love my htc desire, but one thing is very very annoying on my device : this stupid back cover is always making little crackling noise when i put my hand on it !

It feels like the back cover is not properly placed but no matter how i close the cover i still have this problem.

Anybody has the same issue or found how to fix this ?
[Desire General] tibey:
nobody has this issue ?
[Desire General] Whiterin:
I have this issue once in a while. Almost feels like part of the back case isn't quite snapped into place when it is. It really isn't that big a deal for me.
[Desire General] Krpano:
I hear that too.

It doesn't bother me.

Of course, would be better if didn't make the noise.
[Desire General] souljas:
mine too. doesn't bother me though. If you just got it I guess you could swap it for a new one.
[Desire General] cooksterni:
me too. bothers me a wee bit, but haven't tried to fix it yet
[Desire General] paulruk:
Its a sad day, whilst running across a busy street my Desire jumped out of my inside pocket and landed on the road, screen down. I was just about to retrieve it and then slightly comically a bus run over it (ouch! :eek:).

Absolutley gutted! I`m normally really good and never dropped any gadgets,phones before and then I do this to my month old desire which I loved so dearly.

So anyway, now what to do?? A few choices , send it off to htc for repair (unknown cost, time) or buy another one and claim for it on my home insurance. Problem with the home insurance is i have a £100 excess and then i`ll have a £100 or £150 increase next year and year after on home insurance. Or go back to my crappy old sony ericsson and realise it was never meant to be ,owning such an expensive phone.

The repair route is an unknown. If its just a new screen thats needed its not too bad but it could be all the inside circuitry thats ruined could cost more or unrepairable.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Depressed
[Desire General] TheOriginalKi:
It would be wrong to take out third party phone insurance and then claim in a couple of weeks, so don't do that! ;)
[Desire General] Gana1991:
Holy cr*p! I really feel for you man.

Personally I'd send it off to HTC for repair. The other route sounds expensive.
[Desire General] profet:
Muppet!

;-)
[Desire General] paulruk:
Yeah I think i`ll do that, but it might be beyond repair.
[Desire General] paulruk:
Thanks thats really helpful.
[Desire General] H00pyFr00d:
Did you buy it straight from T-Mobile or from MPD? MPD give you 3 months' free insurance. Might be a winner?
[Desire General] profet:
Yeah, I guess not - sorry!

Does the phone turn on at all any more? Can it make calls? If its just the case that's been destroyed, I'd say repair is an option. Though I suspect a bus would crush the phone beyond just the case.

Personally, I'd go down the insurance route. Otherwise, I'd probably get a cheap HTC Hero from ebay and live with that for a while.
[Desire General] Psy-Blade:
Pictures!? :/
[Desire General] roscoe141:
Bank of Scotland ultimate reward for free insurance, if you have a current account with them and pay more than £1000 a month into your current account. You get the ultimate reward card for 7 quid which includes a bunch of other features such as free car road side recovery, protection on all credit cards etc etc etc,

That's who I'm with should a bus use my Desire as a trampoline. :D
[Desire General] H00pyFr00d:
Have you considered that the dodgy wallpaper you've got might have something to do with it? Karma and all that?
[Desire General] cez10:
im paying £8 for insurance with t-mobile which includes loosing it + destroying so im not too worried if anything happens to it
[Desire General] paulruk:
NP. Well if I take the battery out and back in it does vibrate. So there might be some life still in it. Actual case doesnt look too bad. couple of dinks on the front and Home button does push down.

Think I`ll try with the repair, it might just need a new screen assembly and button replaced. If its beyond repair I`ll claim on the insurance.
[Desire General] paulruk:
Unfortunately I bought it from Clove so no phone insurance with it, just my household to cover it.
[Desire General] paulruk:
Photo...

The back and sides are fine, the gel skin I had may of helped. Few dinks in the case . The display doesnt illuminate, would probably give some serious chafing too :rolleyes:
[Desire General] FloatingFatMan:
Hmm... I don't want to worry you, but I think your screen might be broken. :p

Seriously though, that sucks man... Hope a repair is possible and doesn't cost you too much!
[Desire General] ziao:
my heart skipped a beat when i saw that pic.. im really sorry man, hope this resolves somehow
[Desire General] profet:
I love that you've used your phone as your profile picture btw.

Actually, I amazed how well your phone has come out of a fight with a bus.

I've replaced iPhone glass and LCD units many times - they are readily available on ebay. The Desire parts are not available yet, though looking online parts for older HTC phones are.

If you don't decide to send it in to be repaired, I'd be tempted to open the phone up and see what the state of the insides are. If the circuit boards are damaged, it'll be apparent pretty quickly. Replacement LCDs and glass will become available eventually along with guides to opening the phone.
[Desire General] jondalar:
I love the way this screen looks now, do you think this exact pattern could be made into a wallpaper? :D just kiding bro

Still please if it turns out the screen is the only thing that got broken from this clash of the titans, DO NOT forget to report it here, because that would be just plain... well ... amazing!
[Desire General] lnoormohamed:
my bad didnt consider the concquences
[Desire General] paulruk:
I`ve decided to send it off to htc for repair. Theyre collecting it monday so will let you know what happens.

Have been impressed by htc support so far, prompt emails and good telephone manner. Just hope the repair centre is as good (and cheap!).
[Desire General] paulruk:
ok thanks. Yes I was quite surprised too it survived so well. Thought it would be all bent up with a bus going over it. Thankfully the bus was empty, full of passengers and god knows ;-)

I`m just going to leave it as is and send it off. the glass fragments are falling off the screen so i`ll leave it to htc. But like I say putting the battery in causes a vibrate like when you normally turn it on. So just maybe there is life in it yet.
[Desire General] profet:
you could plug it into a pc and see if you can access the SD card. that'd give you a good idea of what the insides are like.
[Desire General] zippyioa:
Thats a great suggestion..... how about 10 years imprisonment for fraud!!?? :rolleyes:

I wouldn't suggest this option as insurance companies investigate so many claims now, especially if they are on a policy which was started recently.

Many employers wont take you on if you have been convicted of fraud.... nor will insurers, so even if you can find a job you may not be able to get any car insurance, making it very difficult to get there.... it can very easily mess up your life.

The only way to view this is that you broke it and you weren't insured - unfortunately you will have to pay for the repair/replacement :mad:

Rant over, I do feel sorry for you - I dropped mine onto a solid wood floor in week one and the battery came out, with the Desire ending up face down. I was SO nervous as I picked it up, but luckily it survived without a single mark - I was quite surprised :eek: I bet you screamed out loud when you saw yours?
[Desire General] paulruk:
Update

Just an update to say the phone is now in repair at htc, cost is £140. Thats for new lcd screen, case and a microdrive ( i think). So quite happy with that. Couldve been alot worse.

Havent got it back yet but so far very impressed with htc customer service. Phone/email operators very polite and helpful. They picked up by courier the next day, emailed me to say its arrived and then another email the same day to outline the costs of the repair. Now lets hope they do a good job on repairing it.
[Desire General] jamesd256:
I'm very relieved for you. Sounds like you got away with it, minus £140.

Life is full of unexpected expenses. Now you will enjoy and look after your slightly weathered superphone even more than before!

I'm with zippyioa, it's just not worth the complications trying to fiddle insurance.

And it's people who do that who make it more expensive for the rest of us don't forget.
[Desire General] profet:
£140 is a small price to pay to own and use the only Desire ever to have been run over by a bus. You should email them a link to this forum, and in return for highlighting their phone's astonishing build quality, they should do the repair for free. Come on HTC, its great PR.

[Desire General] lewyharvey:
My advice would have been, cut your losses and get a new contract with MPD. I only pay 25 a month for 900 mins, unlimited texts, & unlimited web. You also get 3 months free insurance, which only goes to 5.99 after the free period. Looking at it like this, you probably paid about 380 from clove, then you more than likely are paying 20 quid ish for a sim only contact with web, & now you are gonna have fork out another 140 quid to get it repaired. However all being said if this happened to me I would be devastated m8, so hopefully you get sorted pretty quick :)
[Desire General] Darkzy55:
OH MY GOD

im suprised you didnt get run over too... i would have fell to my knees and cried lol.... titanium plated case for you?

wait make that bomb proof radiation proof and waterproof too ;)

lol joke

hows the little green guy inside the phone hope he wasnt hurt..

p.s gratz on the repair.. better than no desire huh ;)
[Desire General] paulruk:
Yeah the phone got off well actually, shouldve seen the state of the bus!
[Desire General] paulruk:
Maybe I should get phone insurance, now I own such an expensive phone. I bought it sim-free but and knew its covered on my home insurance. Problem with that is you pay out £100-150 excess for claim, then next years policy will be about £150 more and slowly goes down. So in this case i`d be worse off. So maybe mobile phone insurance is worth it, *if* they pay out. I can imagine alot of dodgy claims on mobile phones.
[Desire General] paulruk:
Phone is back with me now :)

Just over a week after I first contacted HTC. Well Done to them for a 1st class service.

Edit: Scrap what I said above. Just loaded my old wallpaper and my contacts and everyone looks like theyve got severe sunburn. Looks like i`ve been given a new screen suffering from the pink syndrome.Actually not so much pink , just very over saturated. :(

Hmm well contact htc and see what they say

Phone insurance seems like a good idea ;)
[Desire General] Norwegianpiglet:
I feel for you! And although you have a sunburned friend list, I'd still say that HTS delivery pretty prompt service. Mine is going back for the 2nd time on Monday, all collected by UPS after a polite and efficcient chat with the operator. Good luck sorting the screen issue. x
[Desire General] supasye:
any news?

what have thwy said about the saturation?
[Desire General] paulruk:
Hi.

Just got the phone back again, and its exactly the same :mad: There were two problems, one was the phone had become really unstable and they fixed that issue. But no mention of the screen and why they didnt do anything.

I`ve been back in touch with htc support and they said there are no comments by the engineers as to why they didnt fix the screen.

So their only suggestion is to send it back to them for a third time! :(

Think i might send it back again and also send them a photo comparison of what is wrong.

i flashed cm 5 yesturday and was enjoying it but missed super 'd' 1.11

so i went to flash that back on and when i get to rebooting after flshing my phone hangs on G1 screen

this is happening if i try to flash cyanogen 4 as well

however, if i flash a rom similar to CM5 like zachattack052 & xillius200's 2.1 it boot up fine

:'(

help plz

just follow the instruction on the cyan wiki for flashing from a different rom to 4.2

simples :P
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nolimit78:

Could you be more specific on what guide you used I can't find what your talking about on CM website. I'm having the same issue only I can only get JesusFreke Rom to work. I'd like to put CM or ANY other ROM on my phone, JF ROM slowly causes my Answer, Home and Back keys to stop working...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JAguirre1231:
I'll give you the gist of what the guides tell you.

Follow the OP and flash the defanged base first: http://www.mediafire.com/?nymkxjmndzd

Flash the rom.

The fact people are having problems with months after this has been commonplace for flashing Cyanogen roms gives me almost no hope for the future.

i downloaded this file Leo_CustomRUU.zip for use rom cook by sync with computer

but i can't extract this file

it's denie.

i turn off all of protection (firewall, antivirus)

anyone see it ? help me plz.

or have other solution to update rom by sync

thanks

sorry my english isn't good
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
did you turn off antivirus before or after you downloaded the file? Some AV software disable customruu, so even if you turn off AV it still wont run.

Try turning off AV, and download customruu again.
[HD2 General] bramgg:
Somewhere on the forum I read that the best thing you can do is download an official htc ROM upgrade (from htc*com with your s/n), download the file to your computer. Then open the RUU file with WinRAR and you'll see like 10-15 files in there. What you need to do is extract those files to a new folder and replace the ruu_signed.nbh (official htc ROM) with the desired Custom ROM and of course rename your ROM to ruu_signed.nbh. Now start RUU.exe and follow the steps. I read that most custom ruu's didn't completely clean the internal storage so maybe this will help. Goodluck!:D

Sorry mate - you can't do this. It's a security feature that we simply don't have a choice about.

It's been asked many times and there has never been a way to change it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] vince2773:
Maybe I'm too naive. But how can an image in an HTML document be a security issue?

Only thing I can think of is some tracking querystring in the src, but all the spammer can get from that is the email was opened and hence the address is active.

Is that such a big deal?

I really hope there's more to it to justify the annoyance of manually downloading the images.

JCM, do you have any clue?
[General Questions and Answers] Lewy1:
I would appreciate help with creating multiple partitions on my micro sd card. over the past few days I sat for hours reading all about it but still have some trouble. OK, so I know that windows won't allow you to create multiple partitions on removable media. Therefore I created 2 fat32 partitions using Gparted. So far all was well, and my phone recognized it as 2 storage cards. The problem is Windows Vista (or XP and 7) still won't recognize more than 1 partition.

Now if you search around on the internet you will find people referring to the Hitachi MicroDrive Driver which can be hacked to make an SD card (or USB flash drive) appear to windows as a local disc, making it possible to create multiple partitions on your card. That's when Vista x64 gets in the way since the driver isn't x64 compatible. So far I still have not found a solution, and would appreciate it if anyone knows how to do this on a x64 system (including assigning drive letters to each partition). Just to make it clear, using WM5 Storage and USB to PC didn't help either.

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] youngdaddytc:
BIG problem.

i know this is an old post, but did you ever find a solution for it? im having the same problem. my scenario...

using an HTC HD2, i've installed wp7 to the phones memory. wp7 by default re-formats any micro sd card so that it can only be used fully by wp7. there was a work around here...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=945565&highlight=micro

and i was able to dual boot wp7 and then an android build from the micro sd card. here's the BIG PROBLEM... both wp7 AND my sd android build WILL NOT see anything else on the micro sd storage card.

furthermore, any attempt to format that card in windows is met with the message of windows will only recognize one partition on a removable data (something like that).

now here's the real kicker... in linux, all partitions are recognized. i have do have 3 partitions on my micro sd card now, 1 for wp7, 1 for my sd android, and 1 that im hoping to find a way for at least one of these builds to read. the idea is to have that final open partition for storage of music, pictures, and video files to share between the 2 systems. i'll be happy if just one of these systems can read it though :-)

im not sure where to post, or really what to do. however, i saw your post and it was the closest thing i've found to anyone else having a similar problem. if anyone can point me in the right direction i'd appreciate it.

Does anyone know if it's possible to access the ANC system to use it to reduce a background noise? I've not seen how the circuit works but I was curious if this was possible.

I would like to have the phone's ANC microphone 'listen' to a consistent external noise within a room and output a negative of that noise (through the speaker) and reduce or eliminate that noise.

I'm not sure if this is feasible but maybe some boffin on here can throw some suggestions in here.
