Hi,

1. Is there a way to display birthday date in another format in the Contacts app ?

2. I don't understand why, when i set an Exchange (2003?) account in the email app, I can't select HTML format for emails... Are HTML emails supported (Exchange & froyo) ?

3. Is there a list of pre-installed app that I can remove from my DHD without problem ? Same question with all the folder created by default on my SD.

Thanks

one very important question for me:
Is the Touchpanel of the DHD REALLY smooth?

I have the old desire, and i can tell, THIS is NOT...
when drawing a diagonal line, it makes BIG stairs...

when i scroll the status bar down, the homescreens left/right: -> it goes faster-slower-faster-slower for ...10 pixels or so, I think...
the sensitivity is just "false": scrolling with keeping the finger ON the display, is really not smooth.... on my ipod touch, there is not such a problem, it is anytime smooth and responsive..

please someone give me an answer about the responsibility of the touchscreen when keeping the finger in the screen and scrolling, because i want to upgrade my desire -> desire HD VERY soon !

In my opinion, its not smooth. Drawing diagonal lines has noticeable steps and it can be very frustrating in games that need accuracy (like sliceit)

Since the new update I got no notification for a new SMS, even no green LED :mad:

It vibrates and I unlock my DHD and see just nothing. Have to open the sms-app.

Any solution?

Hello,

I had updated my DHD on the 24th of December to 1.72.405.3. Since then, the usage of battery by Android OS increased to 40%, so the phone works only ~4 hours without charging. What can I do?

Hey guys I just got my Desire HD yesterday, and i'm having trouble playing videos on 720p, the audio is fine but the video seems to lag a lot, causing the video and audio to be out of sync, obviously. The video file is of .mkv and i've tried both vPlayer and RockPlayer; although they are able to play the video, there is significant lag, with fps of not more than 2 = /

What can i do to solve this problem?

What MicroSD card do you have? What brand and what class?

Also, does your phone have general lag? Have you applied the fix for the /INIT bug? And do you have all the latest updates installed?

How to turn ON/OFF Fast Boot?

Hey guys, I am very excited to receive my HTC Desire HD this week and I was just wondering if there is really a setting in the phone itself to turn ON/OFF the fast boot feature?? If yes, then how? Or is this just a term being used by everyone else for a very fast boot??

Any answers would be greatly appreciated.

Much Thanks!!

Which DHD model?

Hi. I'll buy DHD on amazom.com, US, but the site offer 2 models: 99HLZ001-00 and A9191EUBK (sorry, I'm a new user, so I can't post the URLs here). Anybody knows what's the difference between them?
Thanks.

My DHD does not go into the recovery mode

Hi,
I've just received my DHD thru ebay. I think it is from Middle East with WWE rom. No complains about the rom but I've tried couple of times to go into the recovery but I failed. What is the correct procedure of going into the recovery mode. In manual it says:

Performing a factory reset using phone buttons
If you can’t turn on your phone or access the phone settings, you can still perform a factory reset by using the buttons on the phone.
With the phone turned off, press and hold the VOLUME DOWN button, and then briefly press the POWER button.
Wait for the screen with the three Android images to appear, and then release the VOLUME DOWN button.
Press VOLUME DOWN to select FACTORY RESET, and then press the POWER button.


But it did not work on my device, any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Never mind solved. (Settings-> Applications -> FastBoot (tick off)

Debranding help 1.75.110.2

Hi,

I got the DHD on T-mobile and so its got the logo, then htc logo, then t-mobile logo on start up and takes on average 45 seconds.

I want to unbrand this and flash a generic rom so I still get updates from HTC, but I updated to 1.75.110.2 and lost my root and apparently there is no root for this, yet. Visionary r12 says its rooted but doesn't unroot and r14 tries to root then goes black. Not too fussed about the root later but heard it is needed for flashing?

Anyway is there anyway to downgrade to 1.72 or 1.32 or whatever then root then flash a generic rom? I've got the goldcard but not changed anything else, like ENG or radio.

Any helpers will be worshipped. Easy on the android terms though please I've been on symbian.

Hey, complete Android noob here with a Desire HD. I have a question that's probably been asked a lot but, I've looked and haven't found an answer yet....

Is there any way to just get stock Android 2.3 on my Desire HD, or something like that like the Oxygen mod for the Desire?

Thanks!
