[Desire Themes and Apps] mnaeh:
Just thought to share my observations with everyone else here since HTC is notorious for not publishing their changelogs. I happen to have two Desire's – one with official Froyo released yesterday and one with 2.1 - update 1 (software number 1.21.405.2) . So before I upgrade the other phone I thought to do some comparison. So here it is…

Some highly anticipated features include:

•	Apps to SD, the "Froyo" way

•	720p video recording

•	Built-in Flash 10.1 support for web browsing​

New items in Applications:

•	App sharing

•	News and weather

•	Wi-fi hotspot

•	Navigation

•	Google search

•	Videos

•	Flashlight​

Messaging:

•	Larger message compose area with animated attach icon

•	Character counter is now always present

•	MMS slideshow​

Keyboard:

•	Language switch button​

Widgets:

•	"Profile" and "Ringtone" widgets from "More HTC widgets" list are now installed by default. Even if you don't need them you there is no need to uninstall them cause they are very small in memory size

•	Calculator widget (4 styles)

•	Hotspot switch

•	One more style for Messages widget – full screen message list​

Minor and major app changes:

•	Gmail app now looks a lot better.

*	Black top bar instead of gray (a place where your account name is displayed)

*	sender picture displayed in message header

*	labels are now colored just like in your browser

*	Options to confirm delete, archive and send instead of just delete

*	Auto advance can be set to newer, older or conversation list.

*	Message text size can be set

*	Option to notify once for new e-mail, not for every new massage
​

•	New version of Google Map 4.3.1 (which is still missing from the market, btw)​

Settings:

•	Sound and display settings are now separated and reorganized with few things added

•	Display now auto rotates in three directions (cw, ccw, and portrait)

•	"Manage Applications" section has undergone some nice changes. Now there are tabs: "Downloaded", "Running", "All" and "On SD Card". Every app can be transferred on SD card if enabled by the developer

•	Portable Wi-Fi hotspot (also available in applications)

•	Security settings now include Pattern lock along with Password and PIN lock. There is also an option to delay locking the phone after it goes to sleep.​

Miscellaneous changes:

•	Recent app list (long press home key) now looks a bit different, better design if you ask me

•	New icons for those HTC switch widgets (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth…)

•	When you turn on the display, first hardware buttons are lit and then screen is turned on, contrary to the previous ROM version… just a minor thing.

•	Added a frame to caller picture

•	Two buttons on caller screen mute and speakerphone now have small border​

Bugs / issues /disappointments:

•	I noticed a few bugs / glitches regarding full screen weather widget and messages widget after system boot. After connected to PC via USB, widges that display data (weather, messages, agenda, news) just reload data again. Also after dissconnect from PC the same story. During this full screen weather widget dies. This is serious bug!

•	Right border is missing from Speakerphone button on caller screen (sometimes right border is missing from both buttons)

•	Animated attach icon in new message rolls out a few buttons. Rightmost button (edit slideshow) is missing its bottom border.

•	No sound notification for new mail?!

•	Still there is no promised out of the box Divx support. Shame…​

I don’t use social networking so I can not comment anything regarding these features. Please feel free to add more stuff to this list cause I am sure there are some more treats in there I overlooked, especially in Settings area.

Also let's fill the "Issues" section cause that may inspire HTC to perform a maybe minor update and fix few more things.

Best regards!
