Each to their own i guess.

It created a shortcut because your chubby fingers might have long pressed it for more than a second while you dragged your lazy chubby finger down the launcher tray


Hey, I'm jus'sayin!

Robbie, dam you, what ROM are you using......

 

[mrk]

Pays Sparta 1.2

New version should be released soon I guess, the dev had to send his phone to HTC to be repaired hence the lack of updates.

No FroYo until camcorder is fixed for me!

BTW Wireless N has been enabled on the Desire now too via a Wireless driver update and patch on XDA. Not tried it yet as a patch for my specific kernel on this ROM has not been released yet.

Cool, are you using the one with A2SD too?

Also, any experience with this one?

No A2SD yet, I don't think I'll be needing it really this time round. Once I get FroYo I'll only put big aps (Google Skymap, Earth, CoPilot etc) on SD via FroYo, I have no need to put smaller apps on there as I have 49 apps at present with 37MB free.

No need to faff around with A2SD especially as I'll be ROM switching with different versions which could potentially mess with A2SD.

As for Troya ROM, I have not tried it, the stuff it adds and removes over Sparta 1.2 is not needed for me and I use Gallery3D too.

Got a link to Pays Sparta without A2SD?

No chance HTC don't even know what devices they are releasing it on yet.

Oh and the fact google aint released the final version yet

Hello,

Just wanted to let you know, that Handcent SMS now supports color LEDs. Currently 4 colors are available (amber, green, blue, cyan). So you can customize your arriving SMS's color. It can blink, too.

Aww i want pretty colors, shame i don't use handcent

That'll only work on N1's though right? We only have orange and green.

They do Reboot after you have updated

Robbie, anyway to use the old style keyboard (not the one with the ROM?)

Also, what FB app is everyone using and how to I get the phone to link to FB account like it used to?

 

[mrk]

You mean the stock HTC one and not the IME_Mod one?

Long press a text box and choose input method, untick HTC_IME_Mod.

They do Reboot after you have updated

Edit*

Rebooted and my blue LED doesn't flash blue, it flashes green!

What type of text box? I'm trying to long press the "to" text box when composing a message but nothing happens.

Also, what "phone" are you using?
