Singh400 Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 A small teaser. Remember all this S-OFF and full root talk? - xda-developers [ROOT] unrEVOked 3.2: one-click root for GSM & CDMA Desire - xda-developers (Y) As far as I know, doesn't Brut just add navigation worldwide, what else does it have that standard Google Maps doesn't?Different add-ins to Brut available (I think), and the fact that it caches the map to your SD card means offline navigation!

Dc'1 Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Does everybody's Desire (Sense I mean) lag at the bottom of (some) menus? Most notable in the App Drawer. I remember people saying with the Froyo update it's perfect but mine has been the same since 2.1, in all (that I remember) custom ROMs too. Doesn't happen on other launchers though (LauncherPro etc). I'd try overclocking but I don't think there is any kernels that allow it with Sense, not looked far though :laugh: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/893008-htc-desire/page/34/#findComment-593130270 Share on other sites More sharing options...

]SK[ Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 I'm using that card now. Seems good enough for me anyway. Nothing wrong with speed which I was worried about.

TheElite Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 Go for Class 6+. I ordered two Sandisk Class 4 16GB cards from eBay, one for my Galaxy S and one for my bro's Desire. To my pleasant surprise, they turned out to be Class 6. Not sure how much of a speed performance they will provide though compared to the Class 4's. The Class 6's were quite a bit more expensive.

+Majesticmerc MVC Posted September 12, 2010 MVC Share Posted September 12, 2010 What's the views on the official car kit? - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260661287553 Decent? IMO for £45 I wouldn't bother, its only plastic with a built in charger. Myself, I just got one of these... http://www.t-mobile-accessories.co.uk/P_HOLSUCKT2_Universal+Fit+Suction+Holder+%28Kit+packaging%29.html Granted, it doesn't come with a charger, but just charge it with a £7 Vodaphone blackberry in-car charger. Total = £17. It rotates horizontally too, which is cool for when/if you use it as a sat nav on long journeys. Good card to upgrade to? - http://www.7dayshop.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=777_6&products_id=106392 Seems good value for 16GB. That would be fine, I have the equivalent card from Kingston (albeit not at such a bargain price :angry:) and I've had no issues whatsoever.

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted September 12, 2010 Subscriber² Share Posted September 12, 2010 Go for Class 6+. If I want to go for Class 6 I can only get 8GB around this price range. A decent amount of people seem to say the Sandisk class 2 cards end up performing at class 6 speeds anyway.

+Majesticmerc MVC Posted September 12, 2010 MVC Share Posted September 12, 2010 Go for Class 6+. I'd normally agree, but the price increases exponentially if you go for high class cards. Unless you're moving hundreds of megabytes of files regularly, its a waste of money just for faster transfer speeds, again, in my opinion.

Unless you're moving hundreds of megabytes of files regularly, its a waste of money just for faster transfer speeds, again, in my opinion.Well with Froyo Apps2SD, the faster the SD card, the quicker you can run your app off the SD. And for things like A2SD+ it pays to have a faster card. Yes SOME Class 2 cards perform at Class 6+ speeds. But not all.I've also just read somewhere that having an ext3 partition can slowdown 720p recording? Any truth to this?No idea.

Sir Topham Hatt Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 HTC look to be releasing a WHITE VERSION. I myself will be sticking with the brown. Hoping the October release of phones will get the price under ?380. Saying that, the same site seems to suggest they aren't really looking to go back to AMOLED but sticking with "Super LCD" for their models. Amazon lists theirs as having: 3.7-inch Sony SuperTFT touch-sensitive screen with 480 X 800 WVGA resolution HandTec list theirs as: 3.7 inch SLCD Touch Display Both are still shipping with Android 2.1 though. I would have thought the latest batch would have been 2.2 :s Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/893008-htc-desire/page/34/#findComment-593149482 Share on other sites More sharing options...
