I've been playing with mine since Saturday now and have started to notice some issues.
1. Albums in the music player are not listed correctly. If i have an album by various artists it shows as a different album for each artist. My hero never used to do this.
2. When i charge the battery sometime it stops at around 90% and wont charge anymore until i unplug and plug it back in.
3. Friend stream is set to update every 2 hours but doesn't seem to. And i got no notifications from the Facebook app unless i manually refresh it.
Over all I'm please with the Desire, but I'm starting to think that maybe it was released too early, before all the bugs where ironed out.
Is anyone else having any of these issues?
Why do you think HTC released this phone only at T-mobile?
It's because they needed normal users to find out issues
One album for each artist sounds like you have a different "Album artist" on each track. Windows Media Center etc also shows it as different albums if the album artists are different, even though Album name is the same. I'm guessing that if you keep the "Artist"-tag as it is, and rename the "Album Artist"-tag to "Various Artists" or something like that using a tag editor, it will appear as one album.
I don't have a Desire yet, so can't confirm it, but I recently did a big job of fixing my entire music catalog to avoid this problem.
The problem with the Facebook app is a pain in the arse, it doesn't update whatever you set it too. Had the same problem on the Hero, so I assume it's the app itself.
Plus Friendstream is overated and lacks alot of features.
Can't wait to root and remove all of that crap, can't even uninstall the Facebook app.
I'm using the facebook app. Every message I get it updates. Friendstream I deleted and use the native applications. Albums work but only when they are labelled correctly. One of my albums didnt work, named it correctly and now its 100% fine.

What we mean by Facebook updates, is where it's suppose to notify you at the top of the screen...and it doesn't.
I HATE that there is no dedicated camera shutter button coz I'm vain and all so if I want to take a pic of myself sometimes I'll end up touching the screen when trying to press the trackball etc! It's damn hard holding the lower part of the phone where the trackpad is and press it if you wanna take pic of yourself lol

not sure wither its normal for AMOLED or not, but the OP saw it as an issue, so was wondering wither its his device fault or his eye is just more sensitive to take the "pink-ish-ness" of the screen

Right, I changed my wallpaper to this cloud-ish one and nope, no pinkish hue (normal brightness). Tried to max brightness, still no pinkish hue

I just tried the Xperia Camera on the Touch HD.
The speed of the screen is amazing. Too bad I cannot make a picture (no hardware button)
But if someone knows how to programm and can make the Xperia Cammera app to run on Touch HD, plz holla!

Hi Xmoo
I don't understand, what do u mean by using the Xperia Camera on the Touch HD , does this mean that there is a replacement software for the HD camera, cos the current camera software on HD is not up to my expectation most comes out blurry despite the settings found here in this great forum pages... I'm sure the camera on the HD is capable of much more given the 5 MP it uses.
Cheers
You state its faster. in what way??? focus?
is there a way of using a soft map to fake the button assignment? surely its looking for ButtonX
Hi all,
I'm @ belgium now.
When I go home I will make a demo video and also share the files here.
I just copied the Camera software from the Xperia and pasted it on the root of my SD card on the Touch HD.
Opend it and it worked (kinda)
can you share that app with us?
i'm getting crazy with the hd camera. it's working outdoor at perfect light conditions, but as soon as you don't have ideal conditions, it's unusable...
It's very interesting... could you share this with us?
thanks!
I've added the cab in post #1.
Just extract it on ur phone, and start the .exe
The screen is very dark. To try and see how fast the cam works.
Point ur phone to laptop/pc monitor or television.
Don't know why it's so dark. Think it's a driver issue or somethin.

Thanks for posting. Re darkness it seems like it is not programmed for the lens position on the HD. When I go close to a screen can see a pinhole lens effect. Could be probably wrong ;-)

No didn't see much difference but it's difficult without having any buttons available and just looking at a darkened screen. Hope we will see something come of it. I don't have such expertise or time unfortunately.

Yes I did see that a grey square. Very frustrating. Do you think it is worth posting in Development and Hacking to find someone more clever than us?
Always worth trying. After all, this may benefit not only to Blackstone.
I renamed the CameraRunner.exe to Camera.exe and copied all files uploaded by xmoo to the Windows folder. When I did that it becomes the main camera for the device and by pressing around on the screen new options appear but still with no text. I somehow did manage to change the camera to video while pressing around on the screen and also managed to make the screen go white for some reason and could see the lens working faintly like when it is black.
Took some poor quality shots of what I got. Can you confirm where the Xperia camera files are located on the Xperia device?
Managed to get the original HTC camera back after overwriting the Xperia one I renamed.

Hi, i'm searching for an app to record my dreaming's words. I would like it to record only when someone talks, is there any chance to find something useful to me?
haha i know what you mean! a voice recorder activated by voice so we dont have 6 hours of audio to look through
The only thing I could find while sniffing around was an app that does sound triggered recording, but only by dialing your voicemail number and recording it to that.
Sounds like a simple enough app to write though, perhaps there's a sympathetic Dev out there that could knock up an app for you.
Lol nice idea is there anythin out there like this? Please let us know if ya can find somethin worth to try

I know what you mean.
My mother will telling me that I can answer her questions when I am asleep, but I can never remember doing that.
What you could do is just use a recorder, and record everything during your sleep. Then copy that sound file to your PC and use cool edit to open it, and look through the sound waves. When you see some big spikes on the waves go to them and see if youre saying anything. Might be kinda creepy though, who knows what kind of sounds you'll pick up lol
RL Watcher , it's in the Market.
That said, not too sure if the microphone is going to be good enough (Thanks to Samsungs settings, background sound is noisy!).
Maybe you should change your Title a bit to attract attention. You are looking at an app that can switch on the voice recording when the decibel level increases beyond pre-defined level.
Any ideas?
PS : This can be helpful in a lot of other situations too. You just need to know the minimum decibel level.
Dreams feel real while we're in them. It's only when we wake up that we realize something was actually strange.
I can access your mind through your dreams using my Android.
I have done a little RnD and made a little progress.
Whenever there is a sound a number is incremented per second of sound.
It works with my galaxy S mic very well.
THERE IS NO INTERFACE AT ALL
I want you to test it.
There is no fear of any harm.
The screen stays on as long as the app is active.
But as you may or may not know a black screen on the SGS is an off screen.
The way to work the app is
Install the app.
Set the phone down on your table/nightstand.
Open the app
Don't click anything
Go to sleep (you don't really need to sleep just speak in intervals in a moderately quiet room/simulate your bed room/simulate your sleep voice)
Hopefully make noise in your sleep. Not very loud noise is needed.
Wake up
Press the menu key...you may have to wait a fraction of a sec.
A notification will give you 2 numbers.
Tell me those numbers.(You can round off NO 2 if you want to)
If first number is > 1 then you are successful else not successful.
EXIT THE APP WITH THE BACK BUTTON
If you exit with another way then you may have to restart the phone to get your mic working fine again(stupid mic implementation of mic on SGS).
Test it and tell me how it goes.

I don't know about that for now.
The app is still in its alpha stage.
We can keep it in a proposed list of features.
Right now the app only lists number of seconds you have been making noise.
The SGS has a weird implementation of AudioRecoding
I am still going through the docs.
Once I manage to implement the recorder, more features will be added.
Please reply with the values you are getting from the app.
Thanks
Gonna test the app now

I would like this photo edited, that I have attached. Id like the subject to be more in the center, say on the main home screen...as it stands now, a lot of the subject is hidden by the sense launcher and I would need my main screen to be the far left screen to enjoy this wallpaper.
If anyone is able to work some artistic magic to reveal more of the subject on the main(center) home screen and able to reveal more of the art that is hidden under the sense launcher and hidden off of the left side of the screen...it would be greatly appreciated. my experience w/photoshop is limited to image size changes which doesnt really help my cause.
thank you thank you
These are some I like....
Neat!
Not really looking to obtain more papers though, jus hoping to have this edited as described by a photoshop genius here on xda.

It is, and doesn't seem to affect anything. But it shouldn't happen and you would think they would fix it. It's just a bit sloppy.

This issue is fixed by changing the font size on the watch to small
