  • Yes you can update it to Android 2.2 but first you need to flash the current firmware and then goto HTC Hongkong portal and download their Android 2.2 update ROM. Then do a little google on HTC ROM force-installing tool, this tool is required to put ROM from another party to your unsigned phone (not authorized by HTC). If you need more help contact me remo114 at gmail dot kom.

  • Dear all user! does this device can update to Elair or Froyo (2.2) version in cambodia? and where can i get it in PP.

  • If you want the machine, you can contact The XinTechPPC XinTechPPC intelligence:http://xintech.taobao.com

  • Have been using i858 for a month now and getting more and more adapted to it. The WiFi problem is still hanging around but I find it a strange symptom now. Elsewhere, at Suvannaphum a/p, at Phnom Penh a/p, or at any hotspot, even at the i-mobile service my i858 WiFi connects well, leaving my home connection as the only one trouble location! I did trial and error to the router settings but all's in vain. My son told me to give up hope for connecting through wi-fi at home.

  • moto is sinking

  • can be upgraded to v2.2?

  • This handset is pretty handsome, 4.3' screen looks so cool, I'm planning to buy this phone very soon, in here, in Cambodia it costs 290$. It's running Android, what a cool OS!!!!

  • Hi Where Can you buy this phone from? I can not find a seller anywhere Thanks

  • Tks for the info Papii. WIFI connection is primary for me.If this set has not got good connectivity, then it`s not for me. I travel a lot and want to browse the net at airports while waiting.

  • Now, It supports Android 2.1.

  • I had a difficult time in the beginning. I had to take it to a mobile mechanic to learn how to operate but I must say it's a great phone for the price I paid in MBK in Bangkok.I need a second battery due to its size. If the phone had 3.o amp powered battery, that would have been sufficient. The phone needs to improve its camera quality. I am happy.

  • sell it

  • My first smartphone, bought and used it for one week now. Screen is great, viewable even in sunlight, very fine screen font displays smoothly, reading on the 4.3" display is pleasing to my eyes. Feeling in hand is not so good because of its width. I often made accidental click on the volume control while inside plastic sleeve, I had to cut off an oblong hole over the button to make it less sensitive to pressure of my thumb. I cannot make a firm wi-fi conn to my ADSL wireless router at home it keeps cut-in and then cut-out all the times (this is second unit, i-mobile shop gave me a replacement after I made claim on the problem). Wi-Fi connection at the shop tested OK. At home there are 2 iMacs, 1 BB, 1 MacBook and 1 Acer PC NB, all make quick and firm connections, except this i858, sad. Set limit for IP addresses is 12, so this is not the reason. Appreciate it if anyone would give me an idea where to look at to solve this problem.

  • I saw and played with this phone today in the i-mobile shop, MBK center, Bangkok. Price 11,000 Baht (~$350), running Android 1.6 Menus, home screen and app screen scrolling all quick and smooth. Better than my HTC Hero. 4.3" screen looks great, capacative touch very responsive. Build quality and general 'feel' in the hand is not so good. The phone doees feel 'cheap' the plastic is quite flexible. Superuser app for root access is installed out of the box! At $350 it is still the cheapest 800x480 android device out there. I will probably but one in the next few days.
