getting apps for htc desire on orange?
Hi I have HTC desire on Orange. There is an icon to go on Orange app store. How do I go about getting apps from elsewhere? New to all this app stuff. Jo

Android market is the primary source of apps

The icon should look like that.
Either that or just find them on the net (phone or pc) and bluetooth/drag and drop them over.Back by no demand whatsoever.0 -

see http://www.geekanoids.co.uk/reviews/2010/4/30/google-android-market-whats-in-it-and-how-to-use.html
see all videos in this link and you will find it easier to use your desire http://www.geekanoids.co.uk/reviews/tag/htc
another method to get apps is the qr code method. once you get the hang of it, it is an easy method. see link http://htcapps.com/how-to-download-htc-apps/
see loads of htc desire apps and reviews on http://htcapps.com/ and loads of other websites too. but this website should be good for a start.bubblesmoney :hello:0 -
Thanks everyone.
have found the market app on my phone now.lol. bit embarrassed.
then couldn't get it to sync my google account to access it. eneded up with a hard reset through orange. got that to work and then had the thing where it stalled on the starting download but actually later this afternoon that seems to have resolved without me having to do anything specific to sort it out. so have successfully downloaded apps today.Woohoo.
loving my phone and going to check out some of the other links about using it to see if I can pick up any useful tips.
Thanks again.
