Dropped mine 6-7 times this week, lol. Just about every other time I try and remove it from my pocket, it lands on the floor. Even had concrete dust over the top edge of it, from work. No dent in performance and no dust behind the screen.

I was going to use a second phone for work. What's the point though? It's insured.
[Desire General] GANJDROID:
Dropped move twice in one day, first as I exited a car, few grazes on the top left corner and knocked out 1 pixel which is red instead of white (made 100000000x worse with OCD :p), second from about chest height. Surprisingly no more damage than the first time I dropped it. Did better than the iPhone 4 :p

What's wrong with you all. I've not dropped my desire once and I'm constantly pulling it out of my pocket.
[Desire General] ephumuris:
Dropped mine when i was pissed one time. On pavement. Loads of scuffs and dents on all 4 corners. Then our lass went mental at me for being so pissed and threw it at my head. Then i managed to drop it in a drink of Tia Maria. Finally about a month and a half later...my trackpad has died! Everything else works fine still lol.
[Desire General] r47z:
i dropped mine about a week ago. first time without any casing on it, the back cover came lose and the side of where my volume rocket poped out! but i pushed it back and it was ok. i'm on a case now and hopefully i'll never ever drop it again!
[Desire General] Chodi25:
Happy to see this post. I thought I was the only one who drops his Desire constantly. I find the phone very slippery. Never had any damage from the drops, even on a tile floor. Very lucky I guess. I really should get a rubber protector for it.
[Desire General] jamfitz86:
Dropped mine in a night club the other night from about head height. It bounced, battery cover came off, battery flew out.....

All works fine and no markings what so ever! Surprised as it was a rather bad drop....

JAmes.
[Desire General] JohnSteveDoe:
Dropped it the first time today, though only from a height of about a foot and a half/2 feet. Not a single visible mark. I was pleasantly surprised to see how sturdy it is, my iPhone got a nasty dent in the metal surrounding the case when that happened.
[Desire General] kinkade:
having not dropped it since april when i got it i've now managed to drop it twice in as many days and its still holding up suprisingly well, just some scuff marks so pretty happy
[Desire General] freaksey:
i dropped mine when i got out of a friends car... right on the edge of the pavement.

Now I have a pretty ugly dent where the power on button is.
[Desire General] kekkle:
Mine fell out of my hand today for the first time on my bed. But I was lying sideways and navigating the phone is hard with 1 hand anyway. So yeah, that was my only 'drop' so far.
[Desire General] usb2007:
*sigh* just dropped my desire from my front pocket on concrete floor..some colour off and a small dent on the upper left corner..this is my first drop and right now im feeling so bad about it..so bad that i called my wife back home (im outside country) to tell her about the drop :(
[Desire General] paprkut:
i dropped my desire, which left me with this...
[Windows Mobile Software Development] schmeichler:
Not to long ago I was going to the public pool and wondered where to put down my towel to stay in the shade (kids and so)...

Would this not be a nice idea for an WM-Application? ;)

could use/have:

gps coordinates

compass

nice grapics like sun position, a tree and its shade with a time slider / moving shade

...there are more useless pieces of soft right :D
[HD2 General] Spacechimp:
My HD2 just arrived courtesy of my insurers (Lloyds TSB - regarding lost Hero replacement) without a micro SD card. They say HTC no longer include them with the HD2 - I didn't believe this so I called HTC and they've confirmed they do still ship with them - email confirmation winging it's way to me.

I guess the phone's storage is still usable to a degree via 200Mb or so onboard - until I get a new card that is? Phone is currently charging so I'm having to wait a couple of hours to find out anyway.

Cheers
[HD2 General] Archer:
Yes mate, it's perfectly usable without an SD card. You will want to get one ASAP though, as the device memory can fill up pretty quick once you start installing apps. I tend to install everything that is not required for the phone to work on the SD card, but there's no reason that you have to do this.

Enjoy your new phone :)
[HD2 General] Spacechimp:
Nice one, cheers for that.

BTW, what's the best practice for storage, especially for apps/tweaks/updates, etc? Should they go straight on the phone? I used to have a Tytn II but can't remember what I did.
[HD2 General] Demon_man:
Tweak apps, such as bsb tweak, HD2 tweak etc should be installed don the device, normal apps such as games can be installed on the sd card
[HD2 General] Spacechimp:
Cool - thanks.
[HD2 General] mfrey0118:
Do we forget that the MicroSD card shipped with the device is a class 2? Which means the less read/write operations it has to perform, the better, yes?

So before we start installing apps to the SD card instead of phone memory, shouldn't we get a class 4 SDHC or class 6 card?
[HD2 General] veda_sticks:
mine shipped woth a sd card. class 2. gonna get a class 6 as i write to it lots

i dont think u need to wait for it charging. i had mine on from when i plugged it in first day. battery seems fine from the amount o use it.
[HD2 General] Spacechimp:
Well, it's all charged up and I'm having my first play. Unfortunately there doesn't appear to be any sound coming out of the speaker - the headphones work but that's it. Can't find any settings that are disabling the speakers. Don't tell me I have a new phone with dodgy h/w! Will have a search on these boards ...
[HD2 General] reijkelhof:
I installed almost everything (except a few games which I hardly play anyway) on the device memory itself.

My thinking was that as long as the device is not full it is ok, and the less reading and writing you do the the SD card, the better for the battery.
[HD2 General] M3PH:
Get a class 6. A transcend 8GB card is about £13 from amazon. If you look at the accessories board there are several places that will do it slightly cheaper (i remember somone even posting a 20% discount code for one site).
[HD2 General] Qtomb3D:
I installed Bsb Tweaks and JWMD Icon changer on my SDcard and they are working perfectly. It seems logical to install those on the device but unless it's absolutely vital I don't want do that.

You have messed around with the encrypted block (CID Unlock, SIM Unlock, IMEI change) and now the data is not matching your device any longer. There is no known solution to this, except that you pay some bucks to http://www.imei-check.co.uk/ who are able to restore it for you.
[HD2 General] dood:
Hi everyone!

I had a search for 'reboot' but didn't immediately spot any threads related. My HD2 has rebooted itself unexpectedly after I have been using it for a while. I wonder if it is getting hot and this is causing a power cycle? - I have recently updated from 1.48 to 1.66 ROM after my phone crashed on me one day and wouldn't boot with the 1.48.

Battery fully charged and no apps other than HTC messaging open (i think).

If I try to 'log in' again too soon after a cycle, the fone *may* reboot again. If I leave it for a while (ie cooling down) it will be fine.

Any ideas?

I've been using X10 for several months now and suddenly from last week I notice the clock is slowing down by 20+ minutes per day. I have time set to Automatically so it gets from SIM network. If I restart the phone it picks up the right time from network without me having to do anything with Clock setup.

What could be the problem? Phone is running on R1FA014.

Same problem, I just assumed it was a network provider issue, so I disabled it.
[XPERIA X10 General] kitsVA:
It shouldn't be a Network issue as I was able to reproduce it on AT&T and TMobile. I installed all the recent apps I installed. I will update if that fixed the problem.

Seems like everyone complaining about the time become slow has had a task manager killing something on accident that's related to the time.

I can say I had the issue way prior to discovering and installing Task Killer.. will set mine to manual too since it appears the bug must be in the way they get the settings automatically as backwards as that seems..

I found the solution, at least it worked for me :)

Go to Messages, then press menu, preferences. Then you will see "Service Center Number" or something like that.

If it's blank, go to google and type the following:

-> "your provider here" Service Center number <-

If you find the number type it down under "Service Center Number".

After doing all that you should be done.

Hey,

Galaxy S will be going to be my first Andorid phone so I was wondering if Android/GalaxyS support Middle East languages?

Is there something similar in Android?

[HD2 General] yeantbron:
Hello all !! :)

I have a problem with my Leo, seen several times on the forum, but with a little thing more.

so,

_it freeze up often (with battery drainage, full when i go to sleep and shut off when wake up)

_soft reset alone

_i must do many (and many) soft reset when it freeze up, because it freeze on start up.

_and when it's happened, the part below the battery is hot!!

i've test many rom, with task29 whenever and hard reset after flash, and on every 1st start up, freeze...

Do you know this problem?

thank you.

"edit"I also tried to remove the micro sd is the same thing.
[HD2 General] yeantbron:
nobody has the part below the battery hot?

is it the ram or processor? (or both lol)
[HD2 General] BumAround:
if possible at all, just get a replacement while you still can.
[HD2 General] stormrain:
I have the same problems more or less. More specifically it freezes randomly ONLY when using the internet (on GPRS, 3G, I havent tried it in wifi), and when it does it gets hot on the part under the battery (really, what part is there?).

Anyway, I send it to the service (couldn't get a replacement), and they checked it but they found no problems :confused:

Oh, and i have tried e v e r y t h i n g I could in order to find out why that happens. With SD, whithout SD, Stock Rom, Custom Rom, ,Different Radios, Nothing Installed, you name it, but the problem is there. I am not sure though if I can connect the problem to my SIM card, or the gsm network in my area (doubt it though since I was using my old TP2 flawlessly), but I do not have the knowledge to even guess if that could be the possible reason of the problem.
[HD2 General] luisasia:
HTC will ask you to use the stock rom and try if you still get the problem , if so, then your phone might be a defective one. go to HTC and ask for a replacement.
[HD2 General] hoss_n2:
flash stock spl and rom and go for htc ,if hard reset didnot solve these issues then it is a defective device
[HD2 General] yeantbron:

to get a replacement, it will be hardly.

i'll try on thursday, when i come back home.

thank you very much.
[HD2 General] NeoGreendawg:
If you've had it more than 7 days (including the time it took to get to you if you ordered it from the SFR website) they won't give you a new one... They'll send it off to be repaired which can take up to 14 days. I know... I had to do it twice in the first month until they finally fixed my microphone problem...

thanks at all!

[Desire General] franklinvv:
When I try the new MCR with FroYo, I get the following error message:

I read reports of other people having this issue with this ROM, and even people having this issue with DeFroST. Some people said that it's due to a 'messed up' boot partition, that can't fit the boot image included in the ROM. How can our boot partition be messed up like that?
[Desire General] richardtrip:
That's because you have bad blocks on your boot partition. With 2 bad blocks the boot.img must be < 2304 kb. Will make one tomorrow for defrost.
[Desire General] franklinvv:
I see. So how did I end up having bad blocks? Or are they already present out of the box on some devices?
[Desire General] sucramco:
Any info on this yet, as to how, why, way out?
[Desire General] StuMcBill:
I think all flash memory has bad blocks. There is nothing you can do about it.

My Nintendo Wii also has bad blocks on the NAND, totally normal.
[Desire General] sucramco:
Interms of installing a new rom, (tried MCR r17) do I have to wait until one will actually fit? If I am right in thinking, the bad blocks mean there is not enough space to install the rom?

So hopefully when the MCR r18 is out, as long as it is smaller then the r17 it will install.

I am learning fast, but there is so much reading, it can be a lot to take in. Yesterday I messed up big time trying to install the rom many different ways, I ended up formatting the sd card before I backed up the back up to the PC. Luckily it was fairly easy launch recovery and install a freshly baked MCR 3.1, and then use Titanium to restore the apps and data. So no harm done, and thanks to everyone here and at Modaco who posted all the info I needed to acheive that.
[Desire General] StuMcBill:
Yeah I think you will have to wait until a boot.img is made that is small enough to fit on your memory, its a bit of a pain, but I don't think there is anything you can do?
[Desire General] sucramco:
I'll just have to hope and pray like the football then.
[Desire General] sbdroid:

I also have the same problem and dont know what to do next.

I'm kinda hoping that the official froyo rom will bork the device for us with bad blocks. But I'm almost certain htc will be aware of the issue and the boot image will fit on our devices no problem.
