Hello
in the past i used Sense 3.5 on my DHD but now i had installed ICS with ADW Launcher and ich miss something. Under Sense the Contacts use the Profile Pic from google+ or Facebook an now i can´t find any option for this. Is it possible to get a app for this???? Sorry for my broken english. Thanks
Which ICS rom did you install ?
I'm not 100% sure, but I think that ICS already embeds that functionality: merging contact with their associated picture and so, as Sense does.
You must install FB or Google + and sign in and after that conntacts get synced.

Hi!
Is there any way to obtain Friend Stream for Azure Rom?
It'll require HTC proprietary framework stuff I imagine, so no. It ain't gonna happen.
If you use launcher pro (instead of ADW) then buy launcher pro plus and you'll get some extremely good widgets.
Alright, that seems like a good idea then!
Could you maybe point me in the right direction for some of them?
Many thanks!

Well launcher pro plus comes bundled with them.
As for standalone widgets you'll have to google for it.

you can sync with facebook in azure. just download the oficial facebook app, log in and its done. you can set it upp in "accounts". also longpress a contact, select "edit contact", press meny and then "join" if you wish to join a phone contact with a facebook one.
launcherpro will release a friendstream widget for plus users this week i think. well worth the money to buy the app. its far better than ADW imo.
dont u think i must have tried tht xcrew..it doesnt sync contacts for sure.. not even in the Neon Mod 0.21 m on currently
well thats all i didnt... on a freshly installed azure mod facebook contacts wont sync. All i did was install facebook and it apered in "settings/accounts and sync". In that menu i just checked "auto-sync" and my contacts automaticly synced with facebook. this was the first thing i did after a fresh install of azure. If i can sync, you guys must be able to, just gotta do the right things
to make sure we have the same facebook app, im using "facbook for android" version 1.3.2
EDIT: i have no idea why my post became two, and apparently i cant delete it.

ofc i had to join a coupple of contacts to. "contact list/longpress/edit contact/menu button/join". also you might make sure you actualy show your facebook contacts in the phonebook by checking out phonobook display settings.

try this http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http://heartofangel.com/google-contact-sync/&h=864c8
I thought I started a thread on this before, but I cannot find it...
I liked the FB integration that the stock Espresso contacts app did. However, the links it makes to the FB accounts adds a Notes field with the FB data in the contact. So now on the custom ROM's contacts app, it does not have the same integration, and I can see the Notes filed with a FB tag. Is there a way to install the contacts app from the stock Espresso build that has this integration? Again, I thought I had seen it before somewhere, but cannot find it.
Short answer: No. It requires the Espresso framework I believe.
Alternatives: You can download T-Mobile's SocialBuzz, but I don't like having a spare application just to sync contacts. The Facebook app will sync with your contacts and you're able to link them.
While I missed the stock app at first, it's really not a big deal since the FB and Twitter apps basically provide the same functionality.
Well, I should have mentioned that I did have this before, I just cannot find the thread, so not sure the simple answer is No, but is understandable.
Never mind, that doesn't seem to work on TeamFenix.
Have you found out how to do this? I don't see why it would be dependent on the framework..
Sent from my myTouch 3G Slide using XDA App
Maybe not. I don't know a lot about such things.
But wouldn't the contacts app be pretty well integrated with the dialer and FriendStream or whatever that are dependent on Sense? Even if we had the app, it would be missing some functionality wouldn't it?
You just have to try
Ill see if I can get it going..
Nope its not going to work.. I think its because the phone.apk from stock espresso is 2.1 version and froyo needs the 2.2
I guess we can try when we get official froyo
Yeah, when I posted that it didn't work with the TeamFenix ROM, I assumed it was because of 2.2.
Not sure if this is exactly what you're talking about, but..
I downloaded the fb app from the Market and when I set it up it asked if I wanted to sync contacts and then added my fb account under Accounts and Sync. Now when I go into contacts everyone on my fb list is there, with all of their available info..
If i misunderstood, then please disregard! =]
Not saying its impossible, but if it is doable, its not gonna be very easy. I've seen hundreds of posts asking about porting various sense apps to basic android since the day sense ui was leaked. With the mass of java skills floating around in this community, I would guess that if it was realistic, it would have happened already.
This will be the home for Senseless rEVOlution. I'm starting a new thread because the current Redemptive rEVOlution thread has over 5000 posts and it's hard enough to keep track of things for that Rom.
Summary:
Senseless rEVOlution is an Incredible/EVO hybrid with all of Sense stripped away with only the necessary parts left in tact for those who use alternative launchers such as ADW (which is used by default due to it's Open Source licensing) and Launcher Pro. This Rom is based off of my current Rom Redemptive rEVOlution.
Features & Change Log:
See my current Redemptive rEVOlution thread for a feature list for the base Rom & current Change Log http://bit.ly/gxoxSt
Is this an AOSP Rom?
NO this is not an AOSP Rom. Even though I've stripped away most of Sense it's still based on Htc Sense thus you can only use kernels and themes based on HTC Sense.
Why don't I just use Redemptive rEVOlution and install my favorite alternative Launcher?
If you find yourself using an alternative Launcher then you're not using 90% of the Sense apps so why have them installed on your system taking up precious space and and in many cases these apps are "actively syncing" information and using your precious Ram. The benefit of using Senseless rEVOlution is these apps are removed for you thus saving Space and Ram which in turn will increase overall speed and battery life.
Can I use themes made for Redemptive rEVOlution?
Absolutely! Thats another benefit of this Rom because it's using the exact same framework as Redemptive rEVOlution you can continue to use your favorite theme that you've been using on Redemptive rEVOlution. (Themer's rejoice! No porting will have to be done for this project)
Parts of Sense that have been removed:
Backup Assistant (available via flashable zip in "Sensless" folder on your SD Card)
Plugin Manager
Rosie
App Sharing
Widget Download Manager
Weather Widget
Htc Friend Stream Widget (Friend Stream has to stay to sync Facebook contacts)
Htc News Reader & Widget

Htc FM Radio & Widget
Htc Add Program Widget
Htc Bookmark Widget
Htc Calculator Widget
Htc Contacts Widget

Htc Mail Widget
Htc Messages Widget
Htc Photo Widget
Htc Profiles Widget
Htc Ringtone Widget
Htc Settings Widget
Htc Sync Widget
Htc Weather Wallpaper
Htc Twitter Widget
Deleted all HTC Wallpapers
Bugs:
Selecting Friend Stream will prompt a Force Close
Installation:
Place HBoot .92 on Root of SD Card then boot into bootloader when asked if you want to update select Yes after update when asked if you want to reboot phone select Yes.
Flash Senseless rEVOlution via Rom Manager or by using Clockwork Mod Recovery.
All Optional Content is in the "Redemptive" folder which is pushed to your SD card during install. This folder contains various Mods that can be flashed just like a Rom using Rom Manager or by using Clockwork Mod Recovery.
Disclaimer:As with any Rom or Mod flash you are taking matters into your own hands I will not be held responsible for any bricked devices or be held responsible for the injuries you may inflict on others if this were to happen.
Restoring Apps/Data:This install will format your system. If you want to back up your apps with titanium fine but just do the apps not the data. This is my recommendation if you back up data and then have problems don't say I didn't warn you. Also please don't argue with me about the Rom wiping the system I'm the developer and this is the way I feel will provide the best non glitchy experience. As a result I can spend less time trouble shooting and more time working on the next release....Thanks guys for everything...Lou

Nice!!! Waiting for the download link =)
Woot! Let's do this!
Haha sweet!! Can't wait to see it!! When you said there were themes that could be used on this that were intended for Redemptive rEVOluton, will they actually work? Aren't most themes made for sense?
Am I just missing the download link, like that tricky thang where I have to agree to turning over my first born and clicking "here"?
Now this is something I am excited for.

The Rosie won't be themed since rosie isn't going to be present but all themed apps and framework including status bar stuff will still get themed just fine. Remember this rom isn't 100% Senseless, just 98%.

No, you are not just missing it.
I'm pretty sure Lou does not want your child.
Patience is a virtue.
All I have to say is Woot. Great job Lou. Now have to make a decision on which to flash once I have root again. But your the man. No your better then the man.
I think I sense an AOSP Rom in the works from Lou as well...
I do have a question on the Theme part though. Some of the themes contain the apps that you are pulling out. If we are going to try this out and flash a theme, should we be pulling those out of the ZIP before flashing?
Sweet! I've been eagerly awaiting this!

You said that you've removed friendsteam. Is it possible to add it back so that we can sync our facebook contacts?

He said in the OP that Friendstream was still intact, the widget was all that was removed. I do this on all roms because I don't use friendstream, except for facebook contact pic sync.

The OP states that only the widget is removed because Facebook is required to sync contacts. You will still be able to sync those contact if I read it correctly.

Very good point. It won't hurt to install them however if they rely on the "Rosie" to run then it will just be wasting precious system space so I would rip them out of the zip with an archiver.

Yes you are correct Facebook contacts sync flawlessly however if you try to open Friendstream it will prompt a force close.
Hi, I'm trying to get the HTC Calendar to my phone. I have installed the ROM TastyGingerbread 2.0 but I want the HTC Calendar. I like it. I have tried to push a few from different Custom ROM's (the two I tried was from MaDoCo's and Villan's 12 ROM's) but I always get a force close after Reboot.
Are they not compatible? Is there something from the HTC apk's that I need as well? Help. I like the HTC Calendars because they show the month view on the screen when I add a widget to the Android desktop.
TA.
you need rom with sense to use htc calendar.
just grab some other sense-like calendar widget from market
OK I see, I just wanted one that displays a whole month on a whole page. Can anyone recommend a free one?
TA
I use CALENDAR PAD and it is by far the best one available, I should know, I have tested them all, and its free,, let me know if its what you were looking for.
http://goo.gl/QT0nl calendar widget, literally
Simply open the Stock-Android-Calendar app, hit the menu-button and 'Month'.
Done
I will try them all and see which one I like. GZfan I wanted a month view on the screen so that I can just select the date and add in a reminder. I know the stock calendar has a month view but it is 4-6 clicks before I can add a reminder as opposed to one click.
I use calendars for reminders and at a glance I can just click the date then add the reminder. I am not interested in seeing what I have for each day like some people want.
Or else Use Home apps - Launcher Pro , It has calendar own built

You can download EX dialer from the play store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5tb2Rvb2h1dC5kaWFsZXIiXQ..)

Yeah, that would be an option but it lacks couple of important features. Firstly it can do the swipe to call in the dialer app but not in the contacts part and secondly it cannot merge contacts in the way samsungs contacts can. It would be nice to get the app from SGS2 or 3 running on SGS1 with ICS.
even I would love to have the same...contacts and dialer from the Samsung stock rom...
plz anyone..can help us out with this....I badly need dis.....I loved the samsung contacts n dialer...
That's exactly what I've been searching for the past few weeks, surely someone has the answer?
