Re: Google Android
Did a manual "check for updates" today on my Desire S and am now installing 2.3.5. Was not able to update a week ago. I am on VM.
Just thought I would post in case anyone else was waiting for the update.

I did that last night, and it was very slow to download on my 20meg via my router.
I found out today that "Car Panel" can only be accessed via Locations (which had to be redownloaded) and buy the premuim satnav (the free one has gone) but if you don't buy it locations closes.
I used the car panel for the phone function while driving handsfree, which has now gone.
I have also read that if you have a car crade it will now only charge.

Re: Google Android
Cheers for the info Hom3r. Fortunately none of these issues will affect me. I'm just hoping that the update will sort some SMS issues I have been having.

Re: Google Android
I have heard that it crashes less.
If you look at the weather widget it looks awesome.

Re: Google Android
They're bringing out too many phones and updates. I bought mine when it had only been on the market a couple of months. The next day they brought out an updated version and now they've updated the OS for all phone except mine ¬.¬

Re: Google Android
Desire HD: October 2010
Sensation: May 2011
Considering Google said they wanted phones supported for 18 month its appauling that the Desire HD isn't getting it.

Re: Google Android
Sony Xperia S, higher DPI screen than the iPhone, pretty much the new Android flagship (for the month or two until quad core):
Lovely looking.

Re: Google Android
I'm sure they are better now but I would never touch a SE again after some of the shoddy build quality I had on my previous three SE phones.
T610, w850 and k610i if memory serves so not recent by any means but enough to make me want to stay away.
My other halves w880 and her sisters w810 where also shocking.
That being said I used to feel the same about Motorola but I quite like the look of the new raze.

I've only had 3 phones that weren't SE and all of them were terrible. I'm a big fan of SE but really wanted a touch screen and theirs at the time were much more expensive. At least I get a HTC and Android update in May
