HTC Desire review

GhenMoKai — Sat, 12 Sep 2020 18:29:41 GMT

Following the Legend, HTC continues its Android 2.1 lineup with the Desire -- a gorgeous cousin of the renowned Nexus One. We can trace our drool all the way back to the Desire's leak in December, but there have been some changes since then that made it slightly less desirable -- DivX support and 720p video capture never made it to the final build, but it's not like the company laid down any official promise on them, right? Anyhow, there's still plenty to be loved here, namely the speedy 1GHz Snapdragon, the large AMOLED screen, and HTC's latest revision of Sense UI that we've already seen on the Legend. Now, there are probably two questions floating in the minds of our readers: is the Desire worth the extra moola over the Legend? And is it any better than the Nexus One? Let's all find out together.

Hardware

The Desire has so much in common with the Nexus One that it feels like we've seen it all before. Spec-wise these two Android 2.1 phones have the same processor, 1,400mAh battery, 3.7-inch 800 x 480 AMOLED screen, 5-megapixel autofocus camera and 512MB of ROM, while externally they have very similar CMF (industrial shorthand for "color, material and finish") and weight (4.76 ounces). As for differences, the Desire packs 64MB more RAM than the Nexus One (512MB), lacks a second mic on the back for noise cancellation (more on this later), and dons physical buttons plus a clickable optical trackpad below the screen. We certainly prefer these real buttons since the Nexus One's touch-sensitive keys do sometimes miss our inputs; on the other hand the Nexus One may offer a better single-hand operation with its keys closer to the screen. Funnily enough, it looks like the Legend has the best of both worlds.

A closer look will also reveal the general structural differences between the Desire and the Nexus One -- in theory, the latter's unibody frame should be stronger than the Desire's old-fashioned assembly, but we haven't dared to apply more force on either solid devices to prove this (unless our good friend Peter Chou gives us his blessing). That said, if you're into hardcore tight jeans, then the stone-cold Legend should probably outlast the other two phones with its greater unibody coverage on the back.

To get to the battery, SIM card slot and the spring-loaded microSD slot, you need to rip open the back cover using the top slit, just like on the Hero. It's not a pleasant experience, as you'll see in the video below -- in the early days it felt like either our fingernail or the cover could break, and we'd kill for a slide-and-pop mechanism like on the Nexus One's smaller cover. Leaving this annoyance aside, both covers have similar "soft touch" suede-like textures -- certainly a warm welcome in the cold mornings, and it gives a comfortable grip as well.

Underneath the cover you'll see that the camera, LED flash and loud speaker are at the same positions on both devices, except for the missing noise-canceling secondary mic on the Nexus One. Are we missing much with just one mic? Not really -- in our comparison test, we noticed that calls made on the Desire (using the same O2 SIM card) are muddled only ever so slightly, and the phone certainly doesn't peeve your ears with distorted background noise as produced by the Nexus One.

While we're on the topic of audio quality: both speakers on the Desire do their jobs well -- we had no problem with the earpiece for phone calls, and the loudspeaker on the back is, well, pretty loud and clear. The handsfree kit, however, fails to impress as it barely fits in our ears, and the sound quality is on par with the cheap iPod earphones -- it lacks bass and clarity, making the stylish three-button remote control (backward, play / pause / call, forward) a bit of a waste. Too bad this is also bundled with the Legend and the Nexus One.

The Desire's screen needs no introduction -- we've already gone through the ups and downs of AMOLED in our Legend and Nexus One reviews, plus it appears to be identical to the Nexus One's anyway. Just for comparison's sake: the Desire offers sharper image than the Legend due to its higher pixel density (240 dpi versus 160 dpi), but both screens are equally hopeless when used in daylight -- basically, you'll most likely be seeing your own face while you try to watch the Trololo guy on YouTube. Let's hope that HTC will hook us up with some Super AMOLED love in the near future.

For our battery tests, we followed a similar routine as we did with the Legend -- occasional web browsing on 3G connection, took some photos and videos, almost continuous music playback (with the occasional FM radio), Twitter auto-updating, Gmail push notifications and no live wallpaper. This way we managed to squeeze six hours out of the battery, which is coincidentally what we got from the Legend and the Nexus One as well. We also did tests based on a more realistic usage -- same background apps, occasional web browsing on WiFi and no or little music playback -- and this got us two more hours. Needless to say, it's best to keep the charging cable handy throughout the day.

Camera

Given that all three phones have a 5-megapixel autofocus camera, we expected the same picture output from them all, but HTC's full of surprises. For starters, the Desire captures 5:3 wide still images, while the Legend does a narrower 3:2 and the Nexus One takes the good-old 4:3. Similarly, for video capture the Desire, Nexus One and Legend offer 800 x 480, 720 x 480 and 640 x 480 resolutions respectively. There's a mixture of color accuracy as well, with the Nexus One performing the best out of the three, whereas the Desire's photos tend to have a colder tint. That said, one thing that they all have in common is the weak filming performance in dark environments -- as with the Legend, you'll see reduced frame rate in videos recorded by the Desire under low light level. This could be HTC's attempt to compensate darkness by extending the exposure time, but we're pretty certain that many would prefer a smoother video.

In general, the photos were of fair quality despite the aforementioned color issues. Daytime photos were slightly under-exposed but reasonably sharp, while nighttime shots looked great but also marked with a bunch of noise lines. Close-up shots were surprisingly good (see the keyboard photos), especially when you could go all creative using the tap-to-focus function in the camera app -- something badly needed on the Nexus One. All in all, you can't expect premium photo quality from the Desire (or any HTC devices, it seems), but the camera's there if you need it.

Software

We don't need to say much here as we've already praised the latest Sense UI's new features -- the Friend Stream app, Leap (homescreen switcher, as pictured below), great keyboard and the enhanced text highlighting tool -- in our Legend review. Similarly, the Desire and the Legend both support the same wide range of audio file formats (AAC, AMR, OGG, M4A, MID, MP3, WAV and WMA) -- note that the Nexus One doesn't support Apple's M4A. Update: turns out the Nexus One supports M4A as well, but this wasn't mentioned on either Google's or HTC's spec pages. Given how smooth the general Sense experience was for us last time, we haven't noticed any significant performance increase on the Desire. That said, with the Desire packing 576MB of RAM while the Legend only has 384MB, it's safe to say that the big daddy can handle more apps at any time. We've also spotted some minor differences between the Desire's build of Android and the Legend's -- like the Nexus One, you can apply live wallpapers on the Desire as well, whereas the slower Legend lacks such option (although the Legend is the only one out of the three that lets you have a dedicated lock screen wallpaper). As with most sophisticated eye-candies, the live wallpapers do make the OS slightly choppy from time to time, and needless to say they'll have an impact on the battery life as well, so it's not something you'd want if a charging source is out of reach for some time.

Like the Legend, you'll also get the Flash Lite plugin on the Desire. As you might've already seen in the video earlier, Flash definitely performs better on the Desire thanks to the faster Snapdragon processor, but there's still a lot of work to be done here. Out of the several sites that we tested with, only the videos on BBC News' website had an acceptable frame rate, so using Flash on the Desire is pretty much a gambling game on the video data rate. (You can see our Flash plug-in hands-on in the first video.) On a similarly annoying level, the Desire lacks voice-to-text input as found on the Nexus One and other "Google experience" phones -- not the end of the world for us but some drivers may miss it.

Wrap-up

The Desire is yet another fine piece of work from HTC – build quality is top notch as usual, and there's little to complain about the software except for the Flash performance. Some may argue that the Desire lacks freshness since the Nexus One's already shown it all, but we'd disagree – at the end of the day it's mainly about the software and service, plus the Desire is available from more carriers to begin with (outside the US, anyway).

So, circling back to our earlier questions, for the extra cost of the Desire over the Legend you get a larger and sharper screen, faster processor, live wallpapers and video capture at a slightly higher resolution. On the other hand the Legend's button positions may provide better single-handed operation, and some may even prefer its silver metallic look and feel to go with certain Apple products (sorry, it's unavoidable), so you'd best get your hands on the two devices before handing over the cash. As for the Nexus One, despite the fancy dual-mic noise cancellation, unibody frame, touch-sensitive buttons and a trackball that glows, the only real advantages we see in it are its voice-to-text input and its slightly better camera (and this might only apply to certain batches since HTC might be sourcing from multiple sensor suppliers). We prefer the Desire with its more natural call voice (with its single mic), buttons that respond better, durable optical trackpad (which may not be everyone's cup of tea), and an excellent social networking aggregation service.

Of course, if you're really into the Nexus One's little glowing ball and touch-sensitive buttons, you can always try flashing the Desire ROM onto it (at your own risk, naturally). Have fun!

ROM Flashing

GhenMoKai — Sat, 12 Sep 2020 18:27:55 GMT

DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible of any issues you might have by using my guide. Flashing always includes a risk of bricking your device. Dont come to cry. You've been warned!

-Download ODIN Multidownloader 4.43.
-After it has downloaded, extract it anywhere u want (i suggest desktop, easier)
-RUN ODIN.
-Power off your phone.
-Put your phone into downloading mode. Hold together: Power+Volume Down+Home (phone boots to Downloading mode)
-Connect your phone to PC via USB cable.
-Wait for the drivers to install. After that, in ODIN, one of the top line "bars" should turn yellow and some text should appear there.
-Download the AriesVE.ops file and check it as OPS. (credits goes to manveru0)
-Then check the 'one package' from the top left
-The ROM you've downloaded, check it as one package. If it's MD5 file. Then click flash.
-Flashing will take about 9 minutes.
-When you see "Close serial port and wait until rebooting" in odin, you can unplug your phone.
-Enjoy!

-If the flashing doesn't complete. Or you face some other problems, just try another USB port, or computer if possible

NOTE: If the ROM includes several files you should check them all. For example XXKP4 2.3.4 Rooted, screen shot:

How to perm root htc evo shift

mettle — Fri, 07 Oct 2011 14:26:03 GMT

Table of contents:
1. Hboot information about the exploit.
2. Downgrading
2.1 Notes
3. Full root(Updated 2.2 root)
4. Links

I will aim to make it so this exploit can be ported to other devices to help downgrade bootloaders and software. Please read the entire thread before flashing anything and trying this.

Hboot
Hboot uses a hidden partition to check everything it flashes against, this partition is "misc", or hboot -1, or on the shift mmcblk0p17(hboot itself is at mmcblk0p18).
Some raw dumps of this partition using strings to filter ascii strings brings out this type of dump.
Locked bootloader for the evo shift's dump
"SPCS_001
DeviceWarmBoot
CE Serial InUse
Debug Cable Ena
CE USB InUse
ClearAutoImage
2.76.651.4
FNOC
FNOC"

Unlocked bootloader for the verizon thunderbolt
"VZW__001
DeviceWarmBoot
CE Serial InUse
Debug Cable Ena
CE USB InUse
ClearAutoImage
1.02.605.6
FNOC
FNOC"

Eng spl unlocked evo shift
"FN0C
FN0C
FN0C"

Now the place to focus at is the version numbers, 2.76.651.4. Hboot will check all items you try to flash via hboot or ruu utility against this number and if it is lower than what you are trying to flash, it will allow you to proceed in flashing through hboot, or ruu. If the number is higher, it will reject the flash. If the number doesn't exist(like in the eng spl) it will assume it is able to flash it(ONLY TESTED ON ENG SPL, not locked bootloaders). So by dumping the TB's misc partition into our own, we made it so the locked hboot would accept flashes. Either by RUU or hboot.

We believe the package you flash still needs to be signed though so that only leaves you with official ruu's and extracted ruu zips.

same method as used on the evo part 2 thread by toastcfh at xda.
only diff is shift is emmc and evo was mtd. shift emmc partitions are a bit more in number and named differnetly when compared to the evo mtd partitions. on the evo this partition was labeled as "misc" in /proc/partitions. the misc partition being flashed holds the software version number which hboot checks against to verify whether or not it will allow an RUU to be loaded.

How to downgrade your device
For the shift, will be different on other devices with a bit of modding.
1. Temproot(With Fre3vo for the shift) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1185243

2. Move the file misc.img to the root of your sdcard, and PG06IMG.zip too if you plan on flashing through hboot.

3. Modify the misc partition to bypass the version check, type the following in an adb shell or a terminal emulator on your phone.

Code

dd if=/sdcard/misc.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p17

Note for other devs: misc.img is the image from the TB, could be other images as long as it has a lower version number.

4. This is up to you, you can either use the ruu utility to revert or the PG06IMG.zip in hboot. I'll include links to both. Since both utilities check the misc partition, both are able to flash =)

5. Reboot and then full root like normal on your downgraded device.

Notes
1. When flashing hboot/using this exploit it always flashes twice/stops early and recontinues. Don't worry about it, this is normal(Sometimes it looks like more than 2 but just chill out).

2. Some SDcards are not recognized by hboot, so you will either have to switch cards for this operation or use the ruu utility method.

3. Remove the PG06IMG from your sdcard after flash, or hboot will pick it up next time.

Full root for downgraded 2.2
Flash ENG bootloader

1. Download these files and extract them to the root of your sdcard: www.thebcblends.com/shift/Shift-root.zip
2. Obtain temproot from z4Root, visionary, OR CM's temproot wiki
3. Flash hboot with Engineer SPL:

Code

dd if=/sdcard/Shift/hboot_eng.nb0 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18

4. Boot into bootloader and check for S-OFF

Flashing a recovery
1. Grab latest shift recovery from: http://www.koushikdutta.com/2010/02/clockwork-recovery-image.html
2. Make sure you're temprooted(may have to temp root again)
3. Install recovery from rom manager
Alternative install can be done if you grab another recovery's recovery.img and do one of the following below.
a. Okay this is for those with fastboot - flash the recovery with fastboot: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
b. This is for those where fastboot doesn't work or they don't have it - 1. Place recovery.img on the root of your sdcard, then type the command below.

Code

dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21

Full root/Rom flashing
Well I know you don't have anything you want to save from the 2.2 ruu since it's just a stock flash, so I am going to leave it off here as flash whatever rom you want over the new system via recovery and you should end up with a fully rooted android.
Just remember to wipe data/factory reset after flash.
