HTC navigation software - Desire HD Themes and Apps

Hi I recently had to factory reset my desire hd. Today I opened the car panel and the navigation button is greyed out, and I cannot find the application in the app draw. Does anyone know a way to get hold of the .apk or can anyone post it up. I still have the map files on my SD card.
Thanks.

Try adding the Footprints widget to see if it gives you the option to redownload locations, I had a similar problem and that did it for me,

I don't have a footprint widget in my list of widgets...

Well I put the locations widget on the home screen and got into the navigation, and activated my free trial (something I didn't do before, or have to do) and the icon is no longer blanked out. However I'm sure there was a direct link to the map application without having to go through the car panel.
Thanks for the help, looks like footprints has been combined with locations etc.

Sweet so the app is there, are you still missing the locations app in your app list?

try going to: settings -> location -> reinstall (under location service)
this reinstalls the htc locations app

I reinstalled it for a second time and it is now functioning and the icon has been restored, thanks for all the help guys.

How to get htcsense.com working on your device.
First, sign up to htcsense.com. Use Desire HD as your device. Go through the process until it says sign in with your phone. I had to do this via a PC.

Well done, thanks!
What does the package do in order to make it work. And why do we have to do this, I thought this was a feature that should be working without jumping through hoops.

Easily answered:
Unzip the package.
As for the feature, give it a shot. You will find it missing.
This is my first HTC Android device - what is htcsense.com? Also, do I use cwm to flash this to the phone?
Edit: NM - got it installed and working - thanks OP!
Thanks alot man. Been looking forward to this. Seems it should have been released with it working out of the box....sad that you even HAD to fix it...
Wow! Only locations app/widget to be resolved now to get full functionality.
didn't see in your does and does not work list, but does this work for HTC Hub for wallpapers, scenes and themes? I clicked "Get More" and it just sits and a screen with a spinner.
Can't figure out what I'm doing wrong with this. Downloaded and flashed it a more than once. The app shows up under system/app checked via root explorer, but its not in my app list and when I try to click on the MyHTC.apk, it says installation not complete. Any suggestions?

Same here
I get no Hub icon widget, but when i go to add more skins etc. I get the 'get more' option which then connects me to htc hub to download. Sad thing that it just sits on loading and nothing ever appears
That was an inadvertent feature/side effect.
Scenes and skins are no bueno, but sound packs , ringtones, notifications, and widgets work.
Will the features be added

There should be an app. I have one on the uber z rom I'm running on my incredible. That's a port of the desire z rom

This isn't the Desire Z.
Follow the directions or it will not work.
Also, unlike the Desire Z, which has separate apps for each hub function, ours are integrated.
Got it working and I'm signed in. It was just throwing me off that there was no app in the app drawer. Thanks for letting ne know not to look for it.

if you have a mac and need to sync
just use double twist

I noticed this too and came to the forums for an answer, however I found my own answer.
I believe it's related to the apps with data stored on your SD card. When your phone boots up it takes awhile to check the SD card, by that time it's already checked for the icons for the programs in your games folder.
A quick solution is to hit the personalise button, then the first option marked Scene, change the scene, change it back and you get your icons back without having to drag them back out
Had the same problem, for me closing the folder and reopening it solved the problem, but it is a pain!

You can also reload your launcher as well. If your HTC Incredible S is stock, just kill HTC Sense. It will restart automatically.

HTC ONE task manager

Not sure if I am missing something but on my one s I had a task manager to see my running apps. Is there a task manager in this phone?

double tap on Home button, there you go buddy

I have seen that and used that but even after removing them from there they seem to be still active for example I was on XDA app and double tapped home then removed it but it was still open. Tried it with Pandora and Google play music and neither stopped playing music after being removed.

That's not task manager dude, that's recently used apps.
You need to go into Settings -> Apps -> Running apps to see your running programs. however, it's quite generic. RomToolBox has a better task manager. I'm pretty sure any task manager is better than the stock.
Actually swiping away apps like that is a task manager of sorts. Back when Google first introduced the swipe away feature in android, they stated this action kills the apps activity but not it's service (if it has one), hence why the music app didn't stop playing music, because that's a service not an activity.

No htc backup for htc one... Any help?

I dont have htc backup for htc one.... When in play store it gives me an option to update, but it never opens up later. Also i have tried different roms( including stock) with full wipe. So is there any way to backup settings of the home screen? If yes, the which app and how?

HTC Backup doesn't appear in app list.
You only have to go in Parameter > Backup/Restore and activate Automatic Synchro (with a valid HTC Account)
The synchro will launch HTC Backup .
For me it upload the backup on my DropBox Account
I have tried it million times... There is only the option to setup a google backup account. When i search for Htc Backup for htc one apk in google, i find a link to it on play store (strange, searching the same doesn't turn up anything in play store)... So here it gives me an option to Update, and after i update, clicking on the open button results in nothing but it just removes the open button... Only option left is uninstall.... Tried that too several times too....
