    Facebook wierdness

    Hi everyone My phone's Facebook app has always been strange. To start with, the app that the phone shipped with was very sparse and didn't have things like an 'events' button. But when I got notified that there were application updates for me, Facebook was never one of them. Today I finally...

    Memory card change

    Hi all I'm putting in an 8gb memory card (from my old phone) to replace the 4gb included one tonight. What items do I need to make sure are backed up or moved to phone memory first? What I've got so far: - Apps installed to SD card (moved to phone or uninstalled) - Photos, music and downloads...

    Important Warning about Google Maps update!

    Hi everyone I think I've found quite a serious problem with the Google maps for Android update that just came out late last week. I have a Latitude account, but I havent signed it in on this phone as I don't want battery and data being wasted updating my location, plus most of the time the...

    Help HTC Locations

    Sorry if this has already been discussed, but has anyone found a way of getting HTC Locations (released with the Desire HD) to run on the standard Desire? I would love to be able to cache maps, this would preserve juice and data allowance.

    Red Bar Radio on Google Listen

    Hi there Quick question. I listen to Red Bar Radio, a fantastic podcast (normally #1 at Podcast Alley), but because of it's adult nature, not all directories will list it. Google Listen can't find it on search, but more annoyingly, won't even allow me to add the podcast manually. I entered the...

    Root Repair or grin and bear it?

    I have been concerned over the heat eminating from my Desire (processor heat, I think) since I got it, but can't decide whether to send it to HTC for repair and risk being phoneless (or stranded on an ancient spare phone!) until it's fixed, or to accept this as normal. I've read so many forum...

    Recommendations for Linux phone management

    Hi there Does anybody know of/have any recommendations for software for a Linux PC to manage Android phones? Something that would just allow backing up the phone, managing content etc. In general drag-and-drop is great, but it'd be nice to have something more structured too. In particular, a...

    Help Spotify app

    Hi there How do people find the Spotify app in practice? I find the app quite brilliant in terms of usability, it looks awesome and moves fluidly, and I love that they've included a widget for the homescreens too. But some things about it do confuse me. For starters, when I use it (in offline...

    Help Strange charging behavior

    This is an odd one. I put the phone on charge just before going to sleep. All that was on was wifi and JuiceDefender. When I woke up, the phone was still plugged in, but was no longer charging, and the battery was at 9 out of 10. This seems to mean that it reached full charging, then discharged...

    My very own Desire rant thread

    I've had my Desire since Wednesday evening. I took it out of the box and put it on charge right away, and charged for 5 hours before switching it on. Since then, several issues have cropped up, and I've read more forums and posts than I can even remember. Here are the things that still erk me, I...

    Hi there

    Howdy Just got my first Android device, an HTC Desire (UK on O2, shipped running Froyo!). I lurked a bit on this forum when choosing an Android phone and found it very useful, so I'm hoping to be a regular visitor/contributor here. Initial impressions of 'droid and the Desire: - Android is...
