OFFICIAL HTC Desire Thread

I normally use it with the backlight off. When I go outdoors I can't even see the screen but when I put the backlight on it's ok. I don't go outside much though...
 
I'm using a 500mb data bundle and so far its been more than sufficient. On average my Desire uses 7Mb per day. I download big software in the evenings through my home WiFi.

Weird that your alarm clock on the desire doesnt work. Try downloading an alarm app.

Are you using any kind of task killer? It's a known issue that task killers screw with the alarm program.

DEATH TO TASK KILLERS!

Get Astro or eStrongs file manager off the market & use its task manager to kill things that crash - I had CoPilot die on me today... For the rest, forget about task killers; they aren't necessary.

You can also force close from setting>applications>manage applications>whatever app. Although I'd recommend getting astro or Estrongs in any case :P
 
I was on the Talk 200 with my previous phone, and the first shop told me I had to pay in 500 bucks for the early upgrade(I was contacted last week to to be notified I can upgrade) The second shop I went to asked nothing. Also talk 200 @ R339 a month.

had some weird things happen with my contacts today...My dad's number has always been on my Google Contacts, but whenever I open it on my phone the contacts app crashes. Went on Google and edited it, now it seems fine. With my boss it's still doing it though:-?
 
YAY... Just got notification that Vodacom has got new stock of the Desire!!! Now they just need to dispatch it (apparently that can take 2 to 7 working days :( )

I absolutely love this phone. I got it a few weeks ago. Radio crashes alot & camera flash is too bright sometimes, but other than that its great.
Anyone know where i can get a screen cover in SA. Every shop i goto tells me the Desire hasnt been released yet......and then i have to SHOW DEM!!!! lol
