Just curious, does anyone else encounter this saying on a regular occasion: "it's no iPhone though is it?"![]()
I also only have the one card, and I'm pretty sure I just left the goldcard in it rather than remove it.

can anybody help.
im trying to root my desire and everything went fine untill i reached step 2
any advise on what im doing wrong. i get the same problem when i use tiny core linux method too
Is it just me but when I make a call and want to see the keyboard to do something I have to basically move the handset well away from my face before the screen comes to live? it's getting rather annoying at times look like a twit putting it to my ear pulling it away all the time
This happened to me.
Are you using the one SD card to do everything ?? If so, miss the step where it says to remove the SD card and replace with a non-goldcard. Do step 1 and then carry on with step 2 without removing the card.
Worked fine for me about the 3rd time round![]()
The phone has a proximity sensor so that, when its at your ear, you dont accidentally press buttons on the screen... Not really a problem TBH
yeah im using 1 sd card to do everything.
i formatted the gold card then put it back in, and i got that error.
so what ur saying is that i shouldnt take out the gold card and leave it in there and continue the steps ?
can someone confirm this.

When I use my phone inside it wont turn the screen back on again, I have to go outside for the screen to come back on......thats even waving it about like a nutter.
This has happened to me loads & it is getting to be a real problem lol.
Superior OS and a very close call on the hardware it surely can not make ANY sense to charge hundreds more for it?
Exactly. When you have made the Goldcard and performed step 1, LEAVE THE CARD IN and then just carry on with step 2.
I just did this about 1 hour ago and it worked perfect.
iPhone 4 has a superior OS? Rubbish!
*insert superior for simple people joke here*![]()
lol what? Read again
im saying Desore has a better OS and the hardware is very close to iphone 4 hence the reason im saying i dont get why people are willing to spend hundreds more on an iphone
So I finished the rooting (I think)...
I take it if the "HTC, quietly brilliant" comes up with a musical tone, its rooted ??
Interestingly enough, my internet icon has been replaced with Virgin ??How do I change this ??
im rooted thanks to you. but i still have virgin icon for internet explorer.
ive noticed a new app in menu "superuser permissions"
is it safe to flash to generic htc rom.
does flashing to new htc rom, revert the root.
ive read that its not good to flash to new firmware because the new bootloader is somewhat incompatible ?
