They used aramex for my phone. Very reliable guys.

@drumster - Was the box sealed when it was delivered to you??

 

[drumster]

Yes, the box comes completely sealed (in a waterproof bag, coz it was raining in Mumbai). They even write "Do not accept if seal if broken". Mine was Cash on delivery, so I inspected the phone and then paid the guy. But trust me flipkart guys are absolutely amazing (I dont own any stake in Flipkart ). They also insert the contact details of the nearest HTC service centre based on your address.

@Soumit: I have updated to HTC Froyo OTA. Its working like a charm. Seen improvement in battery life and speed in general.

Hi,
Congrats on ur purchase...
i just want to know, if after updating to froyo are u able to record 720p vedio recording and can HTC desire be rooted or not.

 

[drumster]

Yes, I am able to record at 720p. HTC Desire 2.1 can be rooted while keeping the original ROM. BUT for 2.2 Froyo, you have to load a custom ROM (Cyanogen, MODACO, etc.)

@drumster: Congrats on getting what is arguably the best android fone currently, on sale.
I am sold for this mobile, and would like to know, is the bill provided by a reseller/ merchant or its on flipkart's name?

am a bit shaky, when dealing online with high values.

Thanks,
Abhishek M

the bill is on flipkarts name, however all warranty related issues are to be dealt directly with HTC authorized service center. They provide the address and contact details of the nearest HTC authorized service center along with the phone delivery.
