OFFICIAL HTC Desire Thread

I flashed to the modded DJDroid ROM last night. This one has odexed apps, it's got the old-school (and more superior) apps2sd, as well as the percentage battery indicator. I'm really enjoying this one. My current internal free space is 116MB :D Oooooh yeah!

What's great about this ROM is that because it uses the old school apps2sd, your widgets and things aren't killed as soon as you mount the SD card elsewhere. Very nice :D

Here is another ROM based on the DJ Droid one with all the useless stuff removed and the original boot restored. A list of the changes is on the #1 post of the forum. Apparently you can unzip the ROM file, and put your apk's in a specific folder, zip it back up, and it gets installed as you flash the ROM.

can you confirm if it really does enable wireless n?
 
I am convinced the wireless is so much better on this radio! I am getting much better range, and it is working! I was sitting in a spot where my wireless used to be 1 bar or less, and I managed to copy a 15mb file from the phone without problems....took a while, like 30 seconds or so, but wow!

Also another warning...do watch out that the phone does not get in the way of more important things! That's all I am gonna say!

If you have data sync on then usually something keeps downloading. I used an app called Netcounter, but there are many more. Not sure which one works best though.

About the Ad's...that's usually free versions of apps. If that happens a lot of the time they have a Pro/Pay version which has ad's removed. Remember, 60% or more of Android apps are free, so they have to find an alternative stream of revenue, so if you use a free version, ad's is the way they do it.
 
i have disabled automatic data sync and stuff
so i still dono whats downloading
now i have to keep disabling mobile data when im not using it?
do you leave it on all the time?

you should turn off your "always connected to mobile internet", under settings, there is a standard widget that you can add to desktop that will turn off the mobile for you.
 
are you guys using a screen protector? if yes which name and does it hamper the touch interface of the htc desire?
