[Q] HTC Sync on Custom Eclair? - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Guys! I am using the EzHero 5.1 (Android 2.1 Eclair) and I am wondering that HTC Sync doesn't find my phone. What do I have to do, to make it work? Or ist it impossible?

HTC Sync is HTC special software, and as such is only available in the Sense ROMs.
I too use HTC Sync a lot, and that is why I have not been able to move to Froyo: there are no 2.2 ROMs with Sense for Hero :-(
As for you case (Eclair) you will easily find another Sense ROM (VillainROM for example) and that will support HTC Sync
I have investigated how to get HTC sync to run on non-HTC ROMs, but so far, not managed (if anyone knows how to please let us know...)
Hope this helps

Okay thX! Means that I have to change the ROM. Or is there any other program like HTC Sync that supports the Hero? That would be great! I don't want to flash again... ;-)

Why do you need HTC Sense - that's what i'm wondering. You can do most of it just be file transfers. Contacts is another issue but converting them to gmail contacts isn't difficult IMO. Also programs such as Songbird and other media management tools should recognize the devise.

My first Android phone - HTC Hero, English Version

Hi you guys.
I finally took the step to order me an Android-based-phone, and after days with reading on the internet I decided to buy a HTC Hero. Everyone was "splurgeing" this phone up in the skies.
I hope my choice wasn't a bad one?! (Actually I think Motorola Droid is a great phone, but it wont be available in Norway tho )
As i have understood the Android 2.0 ROM will be available for HTC Hero trough HTC soon. Anyone know the date(s)? I live in Norway, but have bought the English version.
Is there any other Custom ROMs that will be interesting to try out? If yes - which one?
Im also wondering;
- Is the email function good? Does it support HTML-mail, IMAP and other email-accounts than GMail?
- Is there any equal app to MyPhone? (sync app)
- MSN messenger client?
- Is it possible to use the phone without HTC Sense? (but I think i wouldn't)
Thank you in advance,
Joachim

[Q] Sense UI on non HTC device??

Hello all,
I have been a member here for a while and i have tried out a few custom rom's on my desire hd, my question is....
I have an android tablet that is Gingerbread, has anyone developed an installable verion of the sense ui? i know its not to everyone's liking but it works well for how i use my phone with work etc
I have done a search and i didnt find much other than launcher pro look a likes etc and as my tablet is the same 800 x 480 resolution i wondered if it was possible?
Any help would be appreciated, or just tell me to bugger off lol!
Thanks in advance
(p.s i cannot root the device as skygo will not work on it)
As sense is built into so many parts of android (including some parts which are completely replaced by sense) i dont think this is possible. Its definately impossible without root.
Your best bet is finding a launcher you like and then finding apps to do the things you like sense doing. (e.g. syncmypix can sync facebook pics with contacts like sense does)
Hope that helps!

[Q] MIUI Calendar (or similar) on a Sense rom?

Hello
I'm trying to help out my Mom with her new HTC Desire HD. She likes Sense overall and wants to keep it, but she saw my EVO 3D running MIUI and absolutely loved the calendar app, with the different settings and the overall feel of it.
Is there any app that I could install on her HTC Desire HD (not rooted, S-ON) that would do this? (One of the most important features is the ability to set custom ringtones for appointments in the calendar)
Hope someone can help me out here
- Moon
Anyone? :/
Could still use some help on this one :s
well for a calendar try to install Business calendar.....my brother use this very often...I don't know if you can have different ringtones for notifications but you can give it a try.....btw it's free!!

[Q] HTC media link hd and google edition rom

I have an HTC one currently running the android revolution hd rom with sense 5. I've recently thought about trying out the google edition rom. However, I am just wondering is there any possibility of getting the HTC media link hd to work with the google edition rom because i use the media link hd quite often. Do I need to install a custom kernel or something? Or is there absolutely no way for this to work. I really want to try stock android but I don't want to sacrifice not being able to use the media link. Is there anyway to do this?
I want to know this too. My assumption is that there is no way. It seems to be the answer to any question like this.. Ie HTC Gallery etc. I am/was in the same exact boat and I thought what the hell I'll give stock a try. It's all I ever ran on my S3 . I love it. I forgot how much I liked CM10. Now I'm really torn, don't know if I cam go back to Sense to get the gallery and media link back. Hopefully someone figures it out. They ported the camera successfully.
