Android - 1 month on
Rooting and returning to the vanilla HTC Desire ROM instead of the messed with Orange ROM has proved to be the best decision. I now get much better battery life compared to the Orange ROM.
I have applied a Zagg Invisible Shield screen protector as I noticed a few minor scratches. It's a little more expensive than most screen protectors but it comes with a good installation kit and instructions - you actually float the protector on and then squeegee the liquid out so there is zero chance of bubbles under the protector - these will become my standard screen protectors from now on!
I hadn't needed to install Settings Profile for battery conservation as I spoke about in a previous post but ended up doing so but instead of using it to conserve battery I'm now using it purely for changing settings based on my environment - activating airplane mode at night but another profile for when I'm in the car and want GPS, no screen time out, speaker phone etc.
I've also bought a car mount and for sub £15 it's pretty damn solid and holds the phone well, reviews say that it holds the phone too tight or scratches it but I've not experienced that - plus it comes with a car charger!
I'm still absolutely not regretting making the jump to Android from iPhone - it's a little frustrating waiting for Android 2.2 (Froyo) to make it's way to me having been announced by Google a few weeks ago but there's a rumour circulating that it may make it to the Desire late June - fingers crossed!
