i cant find it on htc hub any more... and that on was big widget, and no like the the small battery widget that made by htc.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] liorra3:
btw: wird, i have very limited widgets (4) on otc hub.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] olivierlee:
Yeah, i have only 4 too. Last time I saw the widget on the market, maybe you'll have more luck there. I would recommend QuickBattery for a battery widget.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] liorra3:
yep, wird, i can swear that i see dozens of them... but now only 4.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] jokies:
1, Long press your main screen space.

2, Add htc widget.

3, Scroll down for "setting".

4, find something new, right?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] liorra3:
no, its the same...

Here's a quick review of the ray-out `Rubber Coating Shell Jacket' for the HTC Desire HD.
[Desire HD Accessories] leppie:
I think a back cover is a bit useless, given it can survive being driven over. Unless you prevent scratches and chips, but that has never really bothered me.
[Desire HD Accessories] Grant Barker:
Yeah. It wouldn't be my first choice of protection. But the stores in Japan here were slow to get any cases in when the Desire HD was released in November.

It's been OK minimal protection for a couple of months. I do care about scratches and chips.

I like the look of the Otterbox cases - but I've not seen them in the flesh yet.
[Desire HD Accessories] olivierlee:
The Otterbox cases are some of the best, if not the best, cases available. I have a Commuter one for my DHD and absolutely love it.
[Desire HD Accessories] Grant Barker:
Yeah. I'm tempted to get that model I think. It looks like a smart choice.
[Desire HD Accessories] bitziz:
I'll second that. I have the otterbox commuter also, apart from the fact the rubber shell is a lint magnet, it's one of the best cases available IMO.
[Desire HD Accessories] nm8:
Ive got a white version bought from ebay for £3. It looks similar to yours but mine protetcs the camera because the lens surround protrudes. I dont use it because the top and bottom of the DHD is not protected.
[Desire HD Accessories] Grant Barker:
Yep, 3 quid sounds more like it. Many things are way overpriced here.

In November when the Desire HD came out, they were selling SoftBank screen protectors (good quality but the usual stick on protector) for about 13 quid. (or 21 dollars). SoftBank is the only main Carrier here selling the Desire HD, the iPhones and the iPad.
[Desire HD Accessories] blitz89:
red case

how will you mail them? thanks!
[Desire HD Accessories] Grant Barker:
Just PM me an address. I'll get to the post office in the next few days and mail it. Just normal shipping/ international - I'm not fussed. It's not heavy and it's free - so first come first serve. It's the red one.
[Desire HD Accessories] Grant Barker:
A user has given me his address so it will be sent to him in the next few days.
[Desire HD Accessories] blitz89:
aww man! i wasnt able to give my address on time:( anyway, i saw the site but i dont know japanese! so im not really sure whether i can buy it then let it be shipped to my country (philippines)
[Desire HD Accessories] Grant Barker:
If you want to pm me your address I'll see what I can do.

They are not that good. They only provide scratch protection at the corners and the back. I can't offer any more. But you and the original user will be OK. What color did you prefer?

I'll send them out next week.

G.
[Desire HD Accessories] blitz89:
you're the best!:)
[Desire HD Accessories] shah_jee:
I bought an exspect case with screen protector for £7. Play.com case is black rubber with ample protection to edges and rear.
[Desire HD Accessories] blitz89:
got the package:) thank you so much!:)
[Desire HD Accessories] MrYuiM:
Same. I was so surprised at the speed. Thanks a bunch! Just can't read the instructions on the screen protector, but it doesn't look like a snug fit and I already have one. But I have to say, uber sexy :D
[Desire HD Accessories] Grant Barker:
That's great guys. Thanks. Yes, that delivery was pretty fast. I took them to the Post Office at about 4PM on Monday here in Japan.
[Desire HD Accessories] Grant Barker:
I have one more (black and used) of these cases. I'm giving it away at the end of the month if you want it.

It doesn't have a box, I'll just bubble wrap it.

Send me a PM. First come first served. Sorry, only users who haven't received any of the others I sent.

I know that most people that get smartphones don't usually put design at the top of their list, but... Why are smartphones beginning to look alike? I know that I am probably not the only one that notices this, but shouldn't companies do something innovative with the design of smartphones? For the most part, nearly every smartphone looks like a rectangle with curved edges.
[General Topics] STHNS:
lol and what you had in mind man? Thats like reinventing the wheel, but hey they can improve the design but I am sure it will remain similar as alot of research went in to it. Far as the curved edge goes specially in NS its to much I want my device flat lol in this case I hate to say as iPhone is best example.

iPhone 4 shell and LG Optimus 2X hardware with 4.5" display would be my dream device ill never upgrade it. Dell Steak well thats another matter but hey never watched StarTrek? ever saw those assignment pads looks like small tablets? lol
[General Topics] darkwater13:
A few things are being done to change phone design a bit, but right now I think most are either very niche because of bad insides to match, or just a design/prototype for now. Most still use the same rectangle I think, but change a lot in the basic design

This one seems like a great idea, If it could be expanded upon it could be turned into a proper book-style thing for ebooks

http://www.pcworld.com/article/217119/holy_multitouch_batman_its_the_threescreen_smartphone.html

And there's the Motorola Flipout

http://www.cnet.com.au/motorola-flipout-339306728.htm

And the Continuum, with 2 screens

Its clear man you don't obviously own a freaking communicator.

Yall keep using your primitive "chell phoans" ill stick with my superior communicator.
[General Topics] canadariot2312:
Maybe some small changes, not major, but distinctive enough to make them not boring. The myTouch 4g and the Sony Xperia Arc are distinctive enough in my opinion. Even the Incredible does something different with it's rather odd battery door (I still don't get what HTC was thinking).

From a distance, you can't really tell the difference between the HTC EVO, HTC Desire HD, and HTC Thunderbolt. Same goes with the Samsung Focus, Nexus S, Vibrant, Fasinate, Epic (without revealing keyboard obviously) along with some of their newer phones. Most of the dual core phones look the same as well.

Oh and a white phone would be nice even though I prefer black.

For tablets, there is not much to be done. Unless of course, the Microsoft Courier comes to life.

I like the idea of a three screen smartphone, oh and changing the led color reminds me of Alienware.

They also have the Backflip, the Charm and the Droid Pro. Yet, some of the Motorola phones aren't as creative in terms of design.
[General Topics] copius:
Do any of you remember seeing the Nokia N90 for the first time? Lots of companies want to innovate, but probably worry about loss of profits it the design is bad.

If you want to see "innovation," you can check out shanzai.com and check out their selection of phones. It is basically a website that shows fake/copied versions of current phones avaliable in the world (usually from China). The "innovation" part being some of the designs may make you think WTF.

Thanks for showing this. It is indeed a remarkable looking device.

[General Topics] darkwater13:
Yeah, if that got off the ground and made into a full phone, it'd be great

I've thought that myself before, but it wouldn't work too well around the front because the black works as a great contrast to make the screen look better. I think that's why iPhone has white only on the back
[General Topics] canadariot2312:
The n90 does look a little weird, but feature phones are more likely to be distinguishable from one and another. Than again, they are feature phones.

A white BlackBerry Bold does look a little weird. Although, the European Hero/HTC Legend does look nice. Maybe if buttonless phones are invented, we might see more white phones.
[General Topics] FLAC Vest:
I would love to have more for options; unless im missing something, it is just s different color platic right? I can understand that it would complicate production of the phone and all, but I would love some color variants.

Hell, they could even sell one phone as is and charge to have the plates swapped out at official carrier stores; sort of like getting parts of an iphone fixed at an apple store.
[General Topics] missparker76:
Regarding Evo and Desire HD it's pretty logical as DHD is the European version of Evo.

Like you I would like to be able to choose between different colors but it's certainly more expensive to produce different colors than only one as you have to launch different batch campaigns while you launch only one if you stick to one color.

But I'm not sure this is the only reason manufacturers stick to classical colors (black or grey). I think that most people prefer a classical color and green, red, pink colors would sell not as good as black.

Another design: have you seen the HTC Tube concept? It's really gorgeous.
[General Topics] FLAC Vest:
Well, like you said, they can only do so much you know? But you also have to remember that theyre trying to sell a phone, and that means speaking to as many different types of people as possible. This results in somewhat limited design because they cant stray too far from.... well black; how many adults want a colorful phone? But thats just taking something like color into account.
[General Topics] chivychao:
I don't know what other guys think about it, but for me I only concentrate on smartphone's functions.

I thinks smartphone is starting like NB, similar design with similar hw, except the Logo;-)
[General Topics] Dirk:
It would be nice if manufacturers added some customisation options into the phones they sell. Being able to have an engraving done when ordering a Nexus One from Google was a nice touch.

Perhaps more colour schemes and custom designed or patterned rear covers etc to help individualise our devices and set them apart.

Hi Guys and Girls ( If there are any )

I am a week old owner of the htc desire hd and im getting a replacement on monday ( From three uk ) due to the dust getting in the screen etc,making it a eyesight for me . . .

How ever I am going to do a restore on my handset ( for obvious reasons ) only to find i forgot to back up my original 3_uk rom. :mad:

I have looked Here and can see there is only a Australian version of my ROM.

Is there any one here or on the web who has a uk three RRU or any one would be prepared to do one for me?

Also Whilst i am here when i get my replacement ( on monday ) how do i go about backing up the original rom? Via Clockwork?

Thanks for your Patience in reading this, I'll be great full for any ideas,Comments,Suggestion.

A couple of nights ago I rooted and flashed my new Desire HD to LeeDroid, only to find that Skype on 3 refuses to connect! I presume this has something to do with not being the official 3 Uk ROM, and it's a pain in the ass, because not only is the official 3 rom full of bloat, but I didn't backup the original rom. A shame, because LeeDroid is otherwise very lean and seems very stable. I'll have to flash lodger's stock rom tonight and report back about it.

Well here you go guys, My three rom, with the widget's etc . . .

To install extract the .zip folder to your sd card, in rom manager then inside backup folder.

If you don't have a backup folder i suggest you do a backup of your current rom for two reasons:

1.) Always handy to have a backup . . .

2.) Obvious one . . . Creates backup folder.

Enjoy!!! ( Oh n thanks wont go a miss :0) :cool: )

EDIT:

After installing the backup, If you wish to change language i suggest doing a factory reset via hboot or rom manager then you can customize it to your need's.
