[MOD][3.20.2011] Working htcsense.com syncing

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.
Flash this package:

Log in with correct credentials and info.
Thats it!
Things that work:
Text forwarding
GPS location
Remote ring
Remote lock
Things that do not yet work:
Remote wipe
forward calls

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.

Ok, had to flash it a couple of times before it would show up in accounts. Good to go now, thanks!

if you have a mac and need to sync
just use double twist
doubletwist.com
works great

This is, i figured it's stable enough to be updated to beta. And i'm comfortable with having it in more than two threads now.

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

I am still trying to disable that, a workaround is Downloads app> settings> disable notification

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.

Why isn't Google backing up my WIFI passwords!?

Howdy people...I'm not sure why, but google seems not to ever want to store my wifi passwords. Stock GB..never worked...CM10 doesn't work. I'm currently running the excellent leaked stock ICS...why does google recover everything else but my passwords? (and yes I have the box ticked to enable backups) is there anyway I can explore my account server to retrieve them? The landlord of local is getting racked off with me asking every time I mess about and install a new ROM! Help much appreciated.

Titanium Backup can do it but I don't know if that's in the free version, you can also just make a .txt and put it on your external sd card.

On cm where is the problem to look into data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf file?
And write down the password? LoL...

same here, I use Titanium Backup (pro)
for me it used to work on CM7
but it didn't on the experimental CM9 builds or on CM10

I did sometimes, isn't it?
Don't really know why, but it's the same for me with the automatic app recovery after full wipe.
Sometimes they get restored, sometimes not. Same with the WIFI psswds.

It says during initial screens but it never did seems like bug ...

they've never been recovered with me. I've had the phone for 6months or so.. It's a bit of a pain. I keep flashing new roms but you'd have expected them to sync in the same way as with contacts etc! anyway. It would just be great to know whether it's my phone playing up or my Google account. It has to be one of the two... I'm guessing ill never know as it seems you can't check what is actually stored on the Google server.

This is what I do. It's probably the most reliable way to store your Wi-Fi passwords.

Gallery app flaw

I'm not sure how many people moved from the Nexus 4 to the HTC One, but if you have, I'm sure you've used Google Plus/Picasa to sync your photos on stock Google. If you're like me, you even deleted those photos off your Nexus 4, but the gallery app still gave you full access to them, as if they were on your phone (sharing, viewing, and even editing cloud [Picasa/G+] based photos).
My issue now is that I'm not able to do any of this. I'm able to access my G+ albums through the stock gallery app on the HTC One, but that's about it. I can't see my camera roll, I can't edit the photos, I can't share them, etc. There is a clear distinction between the photos that are actually on my phone vs. the ones on my G+ account. Is there a way to overcome this?
I've already looked into getting the 4.2 camera/gallery apk, but I would apparently have to root my phone, which would mean starting over and deleting all my data. Any tips?

Nobody?

I was considering this, but I'm waiting for stock Android to have IR support before ditching Sense. Anyways, XDA recently released the live wallpaper and camera APKs for the Google Play HTC One/S4, and I installed them. Voila! I have the stock gallery/camera apps! Problem solved
P.S. I was shocked that they worked since my phone is completely stock, not rooted or anything! I read before that the phone needed to be rooted and the camera/gallery apk must be put into the system folder, but all I did was put the APK in my dropbox, allow untrusted sources, and click it directly from my dropbox on my phone. It installed and everything is working perfectly!

Does Photosphere work for you or does it crash?
On my AT&T HTC One with CM10.1 nightly, Photosphere crashes.

I just checked. It works perfectly fine for me (stock Rogers HTC One, not rooted). I even went into the gallery, and after a second or two of "rendering...," the panorama showed up perfectly. It's probably a CM issue.

This is way the wrong thread to ask this, but, try removing the google account, clear data from play store, download manager, and play services. Reboot, then add your google account. Should help. Otherwise, have a search to see or google are having any server issues at the moment.

Just so you don't go back to the development thread and wonder where your posts are, I've moved these 2 posts into a separate thread as the question shouldn't have been asked there
I've even quoted your posts so that you should get notified about this post.
