How To Restore Hyperlink Function On HTC Phone

One of the casualties of Apple’s war on Android was a court order forcing HTC to remove any hyper-links derived from data like phone numbers or email addresses within Sense.  While we could go on all day about how ridiculous a decision this may have been, we’re here to fix problems not dwell on them.
The first, and always most important step is perform a nandroid or at least make a copy of your /system/build.prop file to be sure you have a way back to where you began.  After that, you’ll need a file explorer that allows root access, RootExplorer is a favorite.
  After navigating to the /system directory, make sure you enable read/write access and open the build.prop file in a text editor.

In the build.prop file, you need to find this line:

    ro.da1.enable=true

And you’ll need to change it to:

    ro.da1.enable=false

Then add this line just below:

    ro.da1.method=false

Save the file and reboot, and you should be good to go.  It’s also possible to use ADB to pull the file from the phone, edit it as above, and push it back.  If you’re new to ADB there are many guides available, and XDA members are always willing to help if you get into trouble (You did make that backup, right?)  Send us a comment below if you pull this off, and be sure to thank XDA member Steal25 for the fix.
