It killed my battery playing it and I found that the only times I would be able to play it properly is when I am at home, where my Xbox360 is lol.. On the train its kind of difficult and I couldn't afford to loose battery for it. Personally, Totemo, Flight Frenzy and Fishin' 2 Go are the best games I have experienced playing. Radiant is good fun as well but my time is really spent on those 3, the occasional game on Scrabble/Buka too. Totemo is my favourite though :) Graphics on Flight Frenzy are just mind blowing, I am praying more games like that come out. Its perfect for our phone :)
[Desire Themes and Apps] gogol:
How do you get the Scrabble game?

I can't find it in the market...
[Desire Themes and Apps] Nit3m4re:
Its not on the marketplace which confused the hell out of me after seeing it in the 100 android video. So I googled it and just installed it outside the marketplace.. Didn't see any alternative =/ Its incredibly simple though :)
[Desire Themes and Apps] nicomuk:
Homerun is a good one too.. beautiful 3d graphics, good gameplay, really longlife game but just think its a bit hard..
[Desire Themes and Apps] nailist:
RT2 is worth it, gets a lot harder towards the end, customizing cards for different performance types is great and there's lot of shortcuts in levels.

Ashphalt 5 is a piece of **** that gets 10 frames a second.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Nit3m4re:
Just started playing it the other day. Got to admit, its tricky at first, but once you get the hang of it, god its good fun.. Only online though, offline is a bit pointless until your good. Must admit, some people are pretty awesome at it, which annoying at first lol. Deffo work a look though!
[HD2 General] mcw801:
hello, I was just wondering if it was possible to play yahoo games like spades and pool? I I think they are java based games, so I know opera will not work, and I have tried using internet explorer but it wont load the game. so I am thinking that it is probably not even possible,am I correct?

If not what do I need to get this to work?

Thanks in advance for the help,

Michael
[HD2 General] mcw801:
anyone know if this is possible? I would greatly appreciate it. I mean there is a java application in the start menu, but I am not to sure if that can be used to play those games.

Thanks anyway,

Is there any OTFE App out there?

I used FreeOTFE on my Diamond 2 but couldn't find any app to mount my encrypted disk on android yet.
[Desire Themes and Apps] jonzjos:
Same here. Have been using Free OTFE 4 ppc for many years. And now android doesn't have a similar product?

Secretvault is a free android product that will work, but it encrypts and decrypts each time the volume is opened and closed = terribly slow.

If you find something like otfe let me know. - Thx
[Desire Themes and Apps] gfk777:
free otfe for android

i found an app called

"luks manager".

it is free and is compatible with the volume-files generated by free otfe.

i checkedit myself and it is working.

[HD2 General] mino_gb:
Hi all,

My HTC HD2 has a issue. Sometimes the World Clock appears without my intervention as shown in the video

I cannot post the youtube link here, so the id of video is waDXdUPRQ5k

Currently I used the Stock Rom 1.66 and did not install any program. I tried Hard Reset as well, but no help :(.

I asked the HTC support and they said I need to send to the repair center.
[HD2 General] mino_gb:
Anyone can help me? Should I send the phone to repair center?

Is this error hardware or software issue?

Note: the error mostly appears after the phone is shaken.
[Desire General] AndyCr15:
Now, I don't mean they will take your money and you wont get your code, what upsets me is, on the front of their site it says -

Nothing else to say, plain and clear, they will unlock any HTC phone for €15. FALSE

If you have a Desire, you pay your €15, you try what it says and it wont work. You then get an e-mail saying 'You need to use the new database, this costs €20 more'

I have then declined this, as I have the option, I was only going to unlock it to increase the phone value, rather than I need it. I feel sorry for those really in need, you don't really have a choice at this point.

Now, it wouldn't be so bad if when I declined and asked for a refund, it was just done... but it wasn't. 24 hours later and they still have my €15.

Does no-one else see that the way they are operating is wrong?

Who can I report this to? If a shop on the High Street advertised a TV for £449 and when I got to the till they took my £449 and then told me I had to pay another £600, I say I no-longer want the TV they then wont refund me, I could go to trading standards. Who deals with online scams?

Personally, I'm disappointed MoDaCo are linked to them, I went to them because their link is up their on every forum, I assumed they were a reputable site. :(
[Desire General] H00pyFr00d:
I've also had a bad experience with them.

When I was unlocking my Hero their server was down originally. Got an online tech and he spoke to me for a few seconds then just ignored me. The next two days techs were all offline but then eventually the server was up, got my code and it didn't work. Logged another support call.

I actually figured out the problem myself in the end. That goodness, because my support call still hasn't been answered.

Overall very shoddy.
[Desire General] StuMcBill:
I thought they would be quite reputable since they are recommended on MoDaCo (site ran by the Paul, who rooted the desire).

hope you get it sorted soon!

[Desire General] AndyCr15:
I know, that's what disappoints me. :(
[Desire General] jameson_uk:
Was worried about the site after I paid €15 for an unlock code that did not work, then I read their forums...

Anyway I then paid the US$35 via papal this was middle of the night in India where I think they are based. Mailed them as well and refund & working code delivered in a few hours.

Not sure they are the best at communicating but I got a working code in a few hours for £23.51 so reasonably happy with that for an unlocked and flashed Desire
[Desire General] pympster:
yes I was also annoyed that new phones are excluded from the deal. they also only query the database with new phones once every 12 hours. though the code did work in the end!

[Desire General] cezarL:
I bought the Desire unlocked, but I needed an unlock code for my Touch HD (which went to my GF once I received the Desire). Got it from HTCCode in a couple of hours (paid via Moneybookers, so the code is provided by email), and only paid EUR15, 'as advertised'.

What can I say, I was satisfied with their service... very quick answer considering I requested the code after their COB that day.
[Desire General] AndyCr15:
Yeah, you would be happy, you got the advertised price. To be honest, it's not the actual price I mind. If it just had all prices on the front page and you could look up the Desire to be €35, then it would be fine. It's that they charge you one price, then ask for over twice as much once you've already given them some.

And then, saying I will get my refund... but not giving it to me. I have started a Paypal dispute.
[Desire General] JaykaySLO:
Have considered using their service, but will phone up t-mobile. they charge 15 pounds but the wait is slightly longer. No biggie.
[Desire General] lankydan84:
have used them

hiya guys,

i have used them before to unlock my hd2. when i first registered i had the same problems as my code wasn't in the database.

i got in contact with htc code via messenger, guy sudan explained to me that they were waiting on a database update and my handset was fairly new so would have to wait a few days.

i received an email telling me that the database was up to date, then i was able to retrieve my code.

it isnt really the fault of the supplier but more a fault of htc not releasing an updated code database... the desire is a brand new phone, and imei numbers will not be in the database yet.

i would try adding the guy to messenger details are on the site, and he should be able to explain.

bear with them though as it is a good service, hes prob just waiting on the update.. and i know we are all a little impatient at times.

dan
[Desire General] firedup:
Took 2 days for my code. keep emailing them,they do come through eventually and work OK.
[Desire General] AndyCr15:
I think you're missing the point. They are misleading people by saying they unlock ANY HTC PHONE for only €15 and then bump the price up €20 more... How is it not their fault that they are misleading people?
[Desire General] fantasytozi:
Im sorry that u had that kind of problem. Paypal dispute should be a solution.

My experience with them was very good. Got 2 unlock codes for my Hero and HD2 in a couple of minutes, although with the Hero, I had to flash another generic rom in order to get the unlock code to work
[Desire General] paprkut:
Currently in a paypal dispute with them over this. I asked nicely for a refund and got nowhere.
[Desire General] AndyCr15:
And this is the other point. When you suddenly ask for more money than you said it would be, if the other party declines, be good and just give them their money back! It's amazing they get away with it tbh.
[Desire General] fuzzmo:
I did my research before ordering. Knew I would have to pay 25 euros after reading their forums. Got the code 24 hours after sending the money. Good service in the end. They are slow but I've heard many people in the same situation as the OP get their money back before successfully getting their code. I agree its not like a proper pro outfit but they do deliver and you need to take into account that they are based in India... One happy customer here....

[Desire General] paprkut:
Well that'a the thing they are not stating it will cost extra if you just go off the website, which many people do especially when people seem to rate them so well on some forums
[Desire General] badgerz:
Similar story to you guys on here, paid the stated amount. did not work, to the forums and realised I had to pay more. They eventually refunded my original amount and took the new amount. Bit of drama really for something they could easily be stated correctly on their site.

the front page offer "Unlock any HTC phone [] for €15" is certainly a lie.
[Desire General] sonicheat001:
HTCCODE does work but better to check their forum first and as mentioned you need to pay directly to their email address using paypal for new sets like Desire.

I payed 15 Euro and then had to send another $25 which is a bit strange and leap of faith but in the end got unlock code for my HTC Desire and 15 Euro refunded. So it cost me just $25 (around £19).
[Desire General] AndyCr15:
Paypal told me on the phone they cannot give me a refund... but I just received an e-mail from them telling me they have overturned my claim and I have my refund!

I'm going to try HTCunlock.com for £20 instead!
[Desire General] scopes64:
I got a code for a HTC Desire on t-mobile in about 20 mins. Can't fault that service.
[Desire General] kingronnie:
I used www [.] htcunlock [.] com and got the code within 10 mins. cost £19.99, but I needed it immediately. Would recommend to anyone.
[Desire General] AndyCr15:
For the advertised €15? If not, then yes, you can fault that service.

Why is it people are struggling to see the point here?
[Desire General] nightwarrior10:
I ordered today form htcsimunlock.com/htc-desire-unlock.html , just 19.95$. I received the unlock code in about 20 minutes.
[Desire General] AndyCr15:
Wow, we're finding cheaper and cheaper! Brilliant :)
[Desire General] shingers5:
rubbuish site and hate giving refunds. after refusing alternate service and requesting promised refund, all communication ceased from their end. numerous emails were sent and not responded too. i then opened a dispute within paypal and still no response from them. i then escalated to a claim which today was decided in my favour. why should i have to go through all that to get my money back??????? out or order! if your device was bought or manufactured after Jan 2010 chances are the cose will be on newer database. other sites clearly state this! misleading definitely but not a scam site!
[Desire General] RaptorRVL:
For some reason a topic like this pops up at every device thread. Usually with the same experiences.

I cannot believe someone would start an online service/shop and constantly get into this kind of troubles. It's not good for customer and it's not good for the shop.

So I can only assume there is something wrong with their order and refund processing. Something they don't seem to be willing to fix. Otherwise it would have been done long ago.

If someone is serious about doing online business this stuff should not happen, period. The first thing about doing business is to deliver what you promise. If you promise something for value X you should deliver for value X (or less :D )! And when someone asks for a refund because you suddenly up the price, refund immediately!

It's the bare basics...
[Desire General] kikius:
so i guess their software works great with Touch HD, but crappy when it takes about Desire... let them spend their money and wait for some smart romanian hackers to do it for free, shouldn't we?
[Desire General] shingers5:
touch hd is an old device and manufactured prior to Jan 2010. problems persisit with devices bought or manufactured after that date.
[Desire General] Apeks3:
HTCsimunlock scammers

"Would recommend to anyone."

Well I wouldn't. They charged me for a search, then told me they needed more money for a deeper search. I asked for their "automatic, within 3 working days refund" and here I am nearly 4 weeks later with a PayPal claim on them and still no refund! And looking at HTCsimunlock reviews on the net I am by no means the first person they've done this to. (Wish I'd checked first:rolleyes:)

AVOID HTCsimunlock like the plague, I got my code from another company within 10 mins!

Was all set to buy from them before I came across this thread. Contacted the tech rep who wasn't very knowledgeable. When I asked why the difference in prices, he just sent me the link to a forum page. When I asked again why the pricing page mentions a different rate, he just ignored my question.
[Desire General] nholmes251:
I paid my AUD$35 eight days ago, emailed them the following day asking when my code was being sent thru. STILL NO REPLY, after second email.

Wondering if I will ever hear from them or are they just a scam site after all?
[Desire General] AndyCr15:
Do you think? Hmm, if only there was a 4 page thread explaining they are...? ;)

Sorry, yes, you might want to start procedings with PayPal.
[Desire General] flash novice:
What a con!

Stay well away from this company.The 100% guaranteed refund is a joke.This is when the problems start.Like so many others before me did I find this out.Wish I had read this first.

I was ready to buy one from a Nexus One user for 20GBP - no one wanted to sell it :)

Well, now you can get on on eBay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/OEM-Neoprene-..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item255a44941a

Granted it's from Hong Kong and will probably not be such high quality as the actual OEM ones, but we'll see.

I'll post some pictures when I get it...

Similar to this one that I ordered:

Too bad that the Islandic vulcano is delaying the shipments...
[Desire Accessories] Karolis:
That one is just a G1 case called differently. It will fit Desire, but it's different from Nexus One case.
[Desire Accessories] watercool:
great! thx for the link, thats cheap :D
[Desire Accessories] Karolis:
Hopefully the quality won't be as low as the price :)
[Desire Accessories] MasDroid:
Would this case be loose enough to accommodate both the Desire and a gel case, like flexi-shield?
[Desire Accessories] Karolis:
I doubt it because on Nexus One it's pretty tight. Though for that price you might get it and try to stretch it.
[Desire Accessories] MasDroid:
In that case i think i'll wait for the OP to post some piccy's so we can then have a better idea :)

I think you are correct, does look a tight fit ;)
