Does any G1 Rom have HTC Friendstream

Hi All
I have tried the search but to no avail, do you know if any roms have the HTC Friendstream widget in. I'd like a unified social inbox and this seems the likely way forward.
Hope you can help
Cheers

No as that is in a desire rom, the best we have at the moment is an Eris rom. if you want a unified social inbox, I suggest the buggy and ugly Blur.

Its not all back
Thanks for the update, just looked up my contract renewal date and its 11th April so not too long to wait. The tough thing then is Sony x10 or HTC Desire (think HTC will edge it due to XDA Community)
Thanks

your lucky you can get the desire!! It will not work with tmobile usa's 3G =\...

People need to do thier homework. Think a few Sense ROMS have working HTC widgets.
Kings Legend2G1 has working friendstream, thats the only one I've tested.

[Q] What new phone should I get?

My Captivate has never been very good. It has a bad AT&T update server thing, it randomly presses the search button for no reason, its laggy and the internet doesn't always work, even if I have a good signal. I'm looking for another android phone, but not a Samsung. I want to be able to sell this
Captivate that is 2.2 and rooted w/ Evo Black Bar mod. It is in fairly good condition and I've had it for 3 months. And using the money I sold it for, for another phone. Right now i'm really looking into the HTC Inspire 4g, but should I wait awhile longer to see if a better phone comes out soon. I've always liked the HTC Sense UI, so I'd want it to be an HTC phone.
Thanks!
EDIT: Sorry I accidently put this in the wrong thread :\

even though this is the wrong thread i reccomend the inspire 4g coming out on sunday

Id say wait for the atix

Get the Junebug.

if you like htc wait! the inspire is great, no doubt but in 2011 there should be a dualcore phone coming out from htc. there should also be one coming out from samsung not that you are interested.
it's unfortunate that the search button presses itself but the internet thing sounds like either a rom/modem problem or an att problem. have you tried andromeda or the latest cognition based on the rogers release? there may be reasons not to go with samsung but if your reasons are isolated to one broken phone maybe you should exchange it and give it second chance. what ever your decision thanks for not starting a flame war with bitter complaints that have no relevance to anything like others have.

If it were me, I would look into getting it replaced with another one and seeing if that alleaviates some of the issues you are having. If not then I'd say Atrix or infuse..just my 2c

go with the motorola razr you'll never look back

Not only in the wrong section but I would swear I have seen a thread just like this one before lol j/k I will be moving this to Q and A when I hit my pc. My thoughts are with MWC coming up In less then a week it is far to early to say for sure. I personly would go with the HTC, known good hardware and decent updates. Moto known for locked bootloaders and ok updates. Samsung well we all know this story lol good gardware, updates, what are those? lol

Received my Sensation XL... Few questions.

Ok, my sensation XL is here and I love it. Despite it does NOT have an SD card slot, despite it only has a WVGA screen. It is an amazing piece of hardware. The plus on this device is sense 3.5. With that, I seem to have a few bugs with the facebook chat widget within sense. Seems to lose its connection from time to time and has a hard time re-connecting. Also, the Skype app will NOT stay logged in even thou I have it set to never log off. Anyone else with any of theses issues..? I using on AT&T and everything else works just fine.

I myself have issues with the twitter app... It's quite unreliable when posting etc.... I think Sense confuses the phone a fair bit so have removed my details fom the HTC apps.

Yea, the sense in this one is a bit shakey. I think the Skype issue is because the device is not yet supported. At least that's what it said when video Skype was enabled. I remember having problems with Skype on the EVO 3D with it not keeping a constant connection and then remember it getting fixed in a newer build.

Raspster, I work for HTC. I'm using the Sensation XL as my daily driver with the EU final TA ROM and have not experienced this issue.
Please do NOT DM if you have a pre-TA ROM, but please DO DM me if you have a TM ROM with issues. Thanks.

How can I tell..? My software number is: 1.05.401.4. CL185058. I have already done a factory reset and still having the issues. Skype will not stay logged on and the FB chat will sometimes crash HTC sense but only the widget. Thanks

Had mine now for about 5 hrs and I have done as much as I can do with it in such a short time. YouTube hq is flawless but BBC iPlayer hq seems less crisp and slightly pixelated. Also I did a 720 hd video and I was not blown away as seen sharper even on old galaxy s I9000. Screen res really needed that qhd bump for high res vids. Emails all sync fine and battery also seems to hold up well. I quite like the size of it and it reminds me of my HTC flyer. Will keep playing and posting my thoughts

Can you please report about the battery, how long can it last with normal usage?!?!

Ok, just found a newer ROM dated Oct 24 vs. the original one of Oct 14th. Just installed. See what this does.

How do you find the rom date, and can you let us know where the newest dated rom is.

Can't find anything on the phone that offically gives a date but the kernal was dated on my stock ROM with Oct 14th 2011. The NEW stock ROM I installed gave a kernal date of Oct. 24th. FYI, Don't seem to be having issues with the facebook chat widget now but the skype will NOT stay logged in for more than an hour. I beleive this is a combatibility issue with the app and it needs to support the sensation XL. I am sure this will be addressed with a future Skype update.

The IS was launched just one month before the Desire S, it did not get Sense 3.0 and has been abandoned by HTC because of which this is probably my last HTC phone.

Not sure I get your gripe, the phone is over a year old. It's time for you to take responsibility and flash it.

Let's forget about ICS for a while. According to our sources we have a sense 3.0 rom with 2.3.5. coming in December. I would be happy to grab that. I have a feeling that we are not gonna get an official ICS rom at all.
Don't want to flash. Been there, done that with my hd2 million times, there were always glitches and stupid bugs. Don't want to waste my time, warranty on custom roms on incS. Does a perfect bugfree out of the box like sense 3.0 rom exist for our device? Love the sense ui, so not big fan of cm.

Sense made my phone laggy and have terriable battery life. Why would I want that.
Cm7 is more like an iPhone. Battery is better although not quite as good as my friends iPhone 3gs that has 80% battery left at the end of the day on ios 5.

I agree. Why bother with official ROM's when year has passed - no warranty anyway. I get 5 days of battery life with CM7.

Sense is only good if you like getting loads of updates from Facebook.

we should be getting ICS update for sure ans some phones listed out by HTC are older versions than ours..also tried the ICS rom by galinet miui but somehow it does not go past the bootup screen..

Using cm nightlies and I don't see what the big deal is about ics... I'm not sure what else I want my phone to do that it doesn't do already. I can phone and text, send picture messages, browse the web, use torrent, watch movies, connect to a printer, feed other devices using the portable hotspot, play snes, nintendo, n64, sega, gameboy, game gear, take photos, record video in hd, use gps and navigation install any app I want and control my bell pvr while I'm taking a crap. What else is it I need?

that's one way of looking at it but i think you are missing the point. from what i've read, ics is supposed to enhance the android experience. in other words, add more polish and improve the look and the feel of the operating system. what you are referring to is hardware capabilities and app functionalities.
if I can have the same functionalities in a more polished package, I would at least want to give it a go.

that's a known bug with the new release. there's a workaround for that: you have to flash the weekly (non-ics) version first, let it boot up, reboot into recovery then flash the ics version on top. or you can just flash the previous release (v1.11.9). it's been flawless for me.

Define issues, and honestly, since a global rollout has yet to occur, I doubt that upgrades >4.0.3 are going to occur. Maybe the regions that have yet to get ICS may get 4.0.4 or later, if those regions ever release an update.
Honestly, you're probably going to have to wait for CM to give you that.

question????
@ Aus_AZN
Why do you think or what have you heard that indicates no Sense 4 for Vivid?
I'm new to the HTC line and reacquainting myself with Android phones. I had a Moto Droid X a few years ago until it was stolen. I was loving it compared to my old VeriZon semi-smart phone. But then it was liberated.
I also lost everything after the loss of a family member. So I really haven't had a quality phone for the last 2 years until I upgraded to the Vivid. I didn't do much research, I just knew it would be upgradeable to ICS. I only upgraded to it because I was able to get it for $49.99 as an upgrade from a Fry's electronics near me. So far it ROCKS!!!!
Also where is a good or great source to learn more about Sense and what it adds to the phone? I have seen very little here or on the HTC site or AT&T either.

Well, the Vivid is definitely upgradeable to ICS, just not Sense 4 ICS. The way Sense 3.6 looks is very similar to the way it looks on GB; you just get the ICS bonuses when you update it.

I for one hope we see sense 4.0 at some point. It's not out of the question. Hopefully after the one line gains some steam they'll update it.

Many bugs on this update like losing reception when entering a train station then having to manually turn it back on when back outside or rebooting. Lost of audio on games which needs a reboot and the constant upgrading android on reboots. I believe we will get an upgrade to work out the kinks. But doubt a sense update but who knows we got beats audio and sense 3.6. HTC is cool like that

I've had sprint and t-mobile att is by far better in pricing. They even waved my activation fees and sold me a top of the line phone for 1 cent. While sprint and t-mobile man enough said. Never had verizon but after walking in and looking at the prices I walked out and never went back that was 5 years ago. What its been 5-6 months, fastest update to the latest and greatest ever not to mention we were the first to receive ICS if I'm correct. I think people are upset about the whole no unlimited data thing. But for what I use my phone for its ok haven't even hit a gig yet. Also lowest cancel fee as well. Haven't really needed support yet so don't know about that but S&T forget it.
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2

All I meant by that is that ATT has been notorious for only providing 1 major update per device (minor security/software patches aside). We got ICS and Sense 3.6 as the update, I don't see, from history, ATT giving us another big update like Sense 4.0

What pisses me off about all the cell phone companies is that they waste technology with greed. This phone among others have 2 CPUs and a monster gpu yet the current software does not utilize it very well at all. Now quads its truly a waste of hardware. When phones like the Samsung epic still does very well. ICS uses more resources and the following android update will use even more, making capable phones unable to be upgraded do to lack of resources. Now as far as sense 4 goes our phones have enough resource to handle the upgrade to not give it is a waste and a greed move. Also I hate reading a phone has 1gb ram but 300 available, its starting to be a joke. Laptops another mobile device that can receive the latest and greatest as long as the hardware is supported, they should just offer upgrades for a price which would guarantee upgrades as long as the hardware meets the requirements and offer them from the play store. And fixes should stay free.

Really overall the update has been pretty good to me. Some minor quirks here and there but everything works and it seems stable. Sense 3.6 works well just the look of it all gets to me. Coming from a Samsung, touchwiz definitley adds its own look but keeps enough elements that you still know what version of android your running. The way it sounds is htc rebuilt sense from the ground up to look good on the one series but just did some minor tweaking on the updated phones. I still question the call imo. And I don't get why htc feel the need to remove overscroll glow and Crt animations on their roms, very cool effects that SHOULD be enabled! And why is the app drawer so.... Gingerbread looking? And where are the widget previews and why aren't they located in the apartment drawer?

From this article it sounds like 4.0 is more of the same anyway but it's spot on about what bugs me about sense ics

Thanks for the link Cor-Master!!
I may want to back off of Sense and see what ICS really looks like. Who knew HTC was bastardizing ICS so much. Im new to the Vivid so I had no idea what Sense really was. Now I know more and knowing is half the battle!

Yeah and like the author I'm not against custom UIs. In away its what android was all about and it allows manufacturers some freedom in putting their own stamp on Android. But in the case of sense its just too much. A good example is my captivate and it's official gingerbread update. Samsung put their own stamp on I with touchwiz but it still looked and felt like gingerbread. All and all I'd say touchwiz was 80% android. And the launcher wasn't as heavily weaven into the ui as sense so as for me I spent a majority of my time with it on adw ex. But sense is probably 30% stock Android if that. They really went out of there way to make sure android didn't look or feel like android anymore.
I like sense for the most part and the issue is fixable if htc just does a few minor things: #1 kill all the textured menus and use the stock holo theme for everything. #2. Enable all ics animations #3. Keep the notification bar stock. And last but not least #4. Use the stock app drawer. They could keep everything else the same and sense overall would world's better!

I like Sense. 3.6 is a huge step closer to an AOSP feel than 3.0 or 3.5 was. 4.0 looks even closer. Any way I look at it though, I like what HTC did with Sense. I think it enhances the look of the OS, without compromising resources too badly. It's definitely my favorite Android overlay (over touchwiz, motoblur, etc)...and it's one of the many reasons I bought the Vivid, because I like Sense. If I didn't like Sense, I probably wouldn't have bought HTC. Especially one who's development is a little slower than others.

i guess we just have to wait and see what happens maybe att will release an update for it i dont know

CM Roms are AOSP based and will not contain Sense. CM always use AOSP
