Andrew is it an HTC Desire or a Desire HD?

Re: HTC Desire stll not come
 

If ordered Sunday it will probably be a HTC Desire standard model as the HD was only for release Monday.

Here is a link to the online user guides. http://www.htc.com/europe/userguide.aspx?p_id=312

If using the original sim card you ensure all your contacts are on the sim card by going into the settings and editing it accordingly, you may have to google your make and model for help.

Re: HTC Desire stll not come
 

on top of the phone behind the power button there is a wee groove. You wedge the back off using a finger nail.

Re: HTC Desire stll not come
 

thanks but dose not help I need to know how to

1 copy all my phone number to the phone than I can put the new sim card in
2 change the fonts for phonebook and reading text messages I am Visually Impaired i can see the screen on the phone but it whould help me if the fonts were a bit larger?

Andrew

Re: HTC Desire stll not come
 

It should help as thats what you asked.

If you have your contacts on the SIM card you should be able to copy them to the phone.

Re: HTC Desire stll not come
 

I don't have a Desire but I'll tell you how I do it on Android and hopefully it's similar. Although I have no idea what customisation HTC have done to all the apps.

Open your Contacts app, click MENU then Import/Export.
You should have an option to 'Import from SIM card'.

As for changing the text size. You'll struggle on this. If you have Froyo (2.2) you can change the font size in the Gmail app and in the browser. Have a look under Settings / Accessibility to see if you have some things there that might help if your visually impaired - you may have kickback and soundback but as mentioned no idea if this will be in your version of Android.

Chomp links http://www.google.co.uk/webhp?hl=en#...610b7113b09eab

Re: HTC Desire stll not come
 

As I advised you before, go to the android Market and search for chomp SMS. You change e font type and size in the chomp settings.

What cd software?

Re: HTC Desire stll not come
 

can't see anyware on the site to downlode it to my pc then put it onto my phone
I never got CD with my phone.
And why can't I change the font with the settings on my phone I will have to send the phone back and get a other phone that you can make the text message large what phone do this?

Re: HTC Desire stll not come
 

There isn't a CD with it.
You plug it into your pc, mount it as a storage device and it'll auto install the software needed.

Re-read this thread

http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/93...ing-texts.html

Download (for free) chompSMS from the anroid market place. As mentioned in that thread you can change the font size even make it read the texts out loud.

The desire has (once again from the android market) basic screen reader capabilities.

If you really can't get it sorted I refer you to another of your threads

http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/19...nt-was-hi.html

And highly recommend getting a phone that is compatible with the software mentioned.

OR - an iPhone (3gs and above) can be used if you are even completely blind. The screen reader OR (as on the iPhone can't be used at the same time) screen zoom will be great.

edit - and has been mentioned the (Phone) software, manuals are all on the memory card that comes with the phone. OR you can download them from HTC's website if you like.

Re: HTC Desire stll not come
 

What site? You install apps from the android Market app from the actual phone. Tree is no need to connect to a pc.

Most in built apps won't let you change the font size, chomp will though. Android also has a number of accessibility settings you can enable.

Re: HTC Desire stll not come
 

it is now asking me to put HTC sync in to my pc how di I do this?

Re: HTC Desire stll not come
 

Plug your Desire usb cable into your pc, and on the Desire screen an option screen pops up. Choose USB Drive. Then browse the drive on your pc, you'll see a file called HTC Sync.exe double click the file to start the install off.

You don't really need to install it unless you want to sync files between your computer and phone, such as music, or emails from an email client.

I prefer to use Google Mail as it works perfectly with the phone (being a Google Android phone), and also any computer. Also keeping all your contacts as Google contacts instead of phone contacts, automatically backs them up into your Google Mail contacts so they're accessible from anywhere. Plus, no need to add them all back if you have to wipe your phone for any reason, as it automatically syncs them from your google account.

For music I just prefer to drag and drop my folders to the phone, and managed my own files, which you can do anyway without using the software just by choosing to mount as a USB drive when you plug the phone into the computer.

Re: HTC Desire stll not come
 

You really don't need to install htc sync.

Re: HTC Desire stll not come
