Answer this - Droid Eris Themes and Apps

Went in and changed background on facebook app and pandora...now my facebook account is gone and won't come back and pandora widget disappeared. All I did was change backgrounds...ideas?
Sent From My CELB2.3 Eris

Mine did the same thing running kaosfroyo v32. Not sure about Pandora, but for Facebook, go into the Facebook app, go to settings, then under other settings where it says sync contacts it probably says "don't sync". Change that and you should be good. You may have to go into your contacts and manually link them, but it should work. It worked for me.

You may have better luck with an answer if you post in the Q&A section, sorry I can't help you though. Hope you solve this.

My best suggestion would be to uninstall Pandora, remove your Facebook accts on Settings and resync Facebook. Make the changes you want, then redownload and install Pandora.

Had this issue as well for Transparent Chaos. A couple different things might help, one, rebooting. Two, make sure that when you change something in Market apks, it often helps, or is even necessary to sign the apks. Apk Manager is helpful for this (suggested by Daneshm90). So, all that combined with jsuh's suggestions should put you on the right track.

Facebook sync

Hey guys!
I'm running the new froyo (rel:11 themed) and I am still having the same problem I have always had with android. On a real android phone one would go to settings> accounts and sync> add account> facebook. This would add my facebook contacts and should technically sync the profile pictures of my current contacts. The problem is when I click on "facebook", it just kicks me back to the main accounts and sync page. I really just want to update my current contacts with their current facebook pics. I know there are apps for it, but they are all pretty bad. Plus I should be able to just do it on my phone without any other apps. Let me know what the deal is and if you guys have have any suggestions.
Thanks
no one knows why?
people probably know why, they have probably answered it atleast a few times
the forum search is a beautiful thing.
if its anything like it was in eclair for some reason facebook only likes to sync with a certain phone (i think its the Dream). something needs to be changed for it to work K_K did this in his eclair build i dont think anybody has in Froyo yet
FYI
This may have already been posted but the new facebook app in the market will sync correctly with Incubus26Jc's Super FroYo 2.2.
Can't remember where, but I know I saw it in the XDA Developers forums.
Risk about sync with facebook is your contact database gets huge.
Some people have reported sizes of 50+MB for contacts, because of pictures, etc.
You might not want to do that... just stick with the google contacts.
i notice that it runs without any problems in cyanogen, but fresh froyo is still missing this feature, even after installing latest facebook 1.3.2! you can select adding a facebook account, but nothing will happen. and the possibility to sync after installing facebook and setting it up, is missing too. any ideas anyone?
already checked the forum and searches... no solution helped (clearing app-cache,e.g.)

Get the Google apps zip in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=722801
Then try adding the GooglePartnerSetup.apk to the install archive (use 7-zip) and reinstall.
No idea if it works but Fresh Froyo doesn't have all the Google Apps apk's unlike the CyanogenMod port and that one sounds like it could have something to do with it.
...starting! will post results...
used the latest un-odexed fresh froyo and added googlepartnersetup.apk... didnt do the trick. next step: adding all the google apps 2 see, if there is anything working then.
not working either... so its not depending on one of googles apks from that package.
Any luck with this? Having the same problem.
have you got the latest Facebook app from the market. It was suppose to fix the issue
yep, latest facebook doent do the trick either... no solution found yet!

I have a few questions regarding widgets and apps that don't seem to work on my phone

Hey guys, I have a few questions about my phone and apps. I have an odd problem concerning widgets. It seems that I download an app and put a widget on my home screen and it works. The problem is when I restart or turn off the phone and go to place the.widget back in the place it was, the widget is not listed on the screen. So I have to reinstall the app to get the widget working again.
The other annoyance/problem is the updated facebook app, is a better one out there because with this one, when I click on things it takes me to the website...is there a better app out there? Otherwise ill just use my bookmark.
Also, I am running KF V36.
THANKS!

Check to make sure where your apps with widgets are being downloaded to. If they are being sent to the SD card, that's the problem. Not sure on the Facebook issue. I think some things will always be linked to the website (someone correct me if I am wrong).

Handcent SMS question.

For some reason, my Handcent app will at least once per day display its release notes when opened as if I just installed it, and any changes I made to its settings will be reset. This is particularly annoying because I use custom notification tones for different contacts & for new texts in general. What could be the issue? It's not set to autoupdate.

App updates through the market don't mess with your saved data/app settings, so that's probably not it. The next time it happens, uninstall/reinstall the app and see if that helps. Do this through the market, not from a Titanium Backup batch or anything similar. Also, I believe Handscent has an option to back up all of your user settings. The next time you have to reconfigure everything, make a backup of your settings. At the very least, it will save you a hell of a lot of time until you figure out what the problem is.

I reinstalled it like you suggested. I also tried reinstalling via EasyUninstaller. Neither fixed the problem.
Also, to backup the settings, you have to be a premium user.
The only thing I can think that would have affected the app is I installed a custom theme for it. It wasn't a theme from within the app itself, but a mod a user had made to change the keyboard color and some other things. I thought I had uninstalled it, though. I installed it via AppsInstaller with the apk being on my sd card. I'll try to find the thread I got the apk from.
OK, here it is: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/team-fusion/34058-release-themed-handcent.html
What Rom are you running? Stock Captivate or ?. Some roms cause this issue, resets the app (s) for some reason. I've had the issue on a few other apps but not handcent. I also registered the app, might make a difference.

I'm running Darkys 7.0.1 port, if you've heard of it. It's VERY nice on appearance and battery life, but this problem just sucks!
Would registering it fix the problem? I don't want to pay $3 just to remove the ad bar.
There is a free registration. Not sure if that will fix the problem but hell, it's free and saves your settings.
I have restored handcent using TiBu for at least the last 10 rom flashes, app + data and never had a problem, just did it this morning when going to Perception 9.5, and every things is working fine, logged in and it restored all my theme settings, preferences, etc.
That's with the free registration. Quote from them " Register free handcent account, get online quicktext and online themes services"
Other thing is, are you running the latest update? Every update has always fixed any issue I was having with the program.
Saw this: "with the new version of Handcent just released and it seems to break handcent even after resigning the app. " From the link you posted.

emmc music, use doubletwist, or similar to fix for now, no true hw acceleration, and a popup when downloading from market about file size.
Hmmm ok I'll try it out, hopefully the calendar shows this time. I tried the MIUI.us one and didn't have a calendar

i've been working on that, it's been a lingering issue. but on my last 4 boots with install it's been there.
Just loaded it on and everything works as it should. Even put Apex on so now I have either MIUI launcher or stock launcher!
Although I'm having problems with root permission and the keyboard doesn't do as well as correcting like the AOKP ICS build
**Sorry didn't see the post about the SU flash...I'll try that**
Just thought I would put out my findings so far on this version:
Cons:
- After putting on the SU flash it seems to have helped with the root permissions. Root Explorer crashes on me when I open it, it asked for root permission and this FC's.
- The keyboard doesn't recognize words like the typical ICS keyboard does and puts the red line under normal words that you would use. Even changing keyboards it still does it in the messaging apps and things. Not sure if it's a translation thing or what. Like in notes I have "one call for scheduling" for some notes I took and all four of those words have red lines under them.
- Notes and a few other things aren't translated to English, still is in Chinese even though I have English set as the language.
- Autobrightness doesn't seem to work the best, it stays pretty dim after the screen goes off and back on.
Pros:
- Battery life seems to be good but I haven't charged completely to test, I just charged a light charge and has stayed at the battery level for about a hour now and I have used it slightly so it does appear that it's good.
- Not really by your doing but it's nice being able to use the Apex launcher with the MIUI launcher so you could have the vanilla ICS look as well as MIUI look without changing roms.
- Gallery works fine on my end as well as the external music files. Doesn't read the internal but that's already posted I believe.
Hope that's not to long of a post and provides some good feedback, Calendar showed up this time on this flash and everything else seems to be working like it should
Is the fixed ROM a flashover and is there a way to get rid of the "download size requires WI-fi"?
Hey Mark, loving this rom so far. Seems really solid and am looking forward to the next update.
Was the 1x4 miui music widget removed? I'm only seeing the 4x4. Any way to get that back?
Just rembered: the Facebook sync, under accounts and sync, doesn't work. When you choose it, it just returns you to the account list.

If the widget was removed it was because of china, we should see it again soon though. This week they reintroduced their "custom music" app. For facebook sync, ICS removed it, you will need to download an app from market, i use http://tinyurl.com/7snt9sw from market. It syncs all contacts and pictures. Just add account from settings>accounts and sync

Thanks for the info! Surprised to hear ics removed Facebook integration. I'm a sucker for that kind of baked in goodness, but luckily there's usually an app for it.
Thanks for your work on this rom.

[Q] Minimoto 1.51 issues

I would love to be posting this in the Minimoto thread, but the forum is not allowing me to...
I installed 1.51 last night with no issues. For the most part, quick and snappy which is what my wife was looking for.
I've run in to two issues thus far.
The first is trying to add a calendar widget. After getting to the calendar selection screen and pressing done, it FC's calendar storage and does
not add the widget. Possible one of the default calendars is dependant on a package not installed?
The second is adding Hotmail using EAS. This one might be me as I didn't get a chance to experiment as the phone vanished from my hands after I finished switching ROMs. There seem to be two options for adding Hotmail. Either "Corp" or "Corp Sync". If I use Corp, it defaults to POP3/IMAP. If I use Corp Sync, EAS is set up correctly but I cannot open up email. I'm thinking Corp Sync is part of Blur and there is a piece not installed. I wasn't able to find a way to change Corp to use push/EAS.
If a kind moderator could move this question to the correct thread, I would greatly appreciate it.

Calender widget works for me
An upgrade to 1.61 which has the native calendar app now allows the calendar widget to work properly.
I flashed 1.7 recently and I reinstalled my apps and setup my settings and such. Then when I reboot my phone, everything is wiped like it's a fresh install.
Running safestrap. don't know if that is the problem or not.
