Yes, it still works. I just got one yerterday.
However, there's no locations license in the package, which means you'll have to spend aditional 29 USD to acquire the license for the premium navigation to be useful.
I confirmed with HTC support that there's no locaton license come with HTC Flyer, unlike Desire HD.
I am not too familiar with it, but upon activating Locations in FriendStream, it prompted me to download Locations and installed a 45MB app package.
Is this a GPS app?

Does anyone user Touchdown? I use it on my Droid2 and was trying to find the tablet version in the market on the Flyer, and it doesn't show up; Only the key shows up. touchdown support said they have had a tablet specific version for a while now. I'm awaiting another reply from them, but I was wondering if anyone else has had success finding it.
You will see tablet apps in the market once the Flyer is updated to Honeycomb
Just out of curiosity, did anyone hear about when the update has been planned for?

This isn't authoritative, but I'd bet after the HTC 10" tablet is released with honeycomb.
The tablet version is honeycomb exclusive.
But the full key works on both versions and amazon has it on sale for 8 bucks.

Curious why you still need Touchdown? It was necessary for Exchange integration in the past. But Froyo supports natively.
Please excuse my ignorance.
I'm considering using touchdown because I don't have to type a pin into my device every time I unlock the device. Only when I go into Touchdown. My work email requires a pin. This also prevents failed attempts at logging in from wiping my entire phone.
Full html in touchdown is nice too

Just like the Galaxy Tab, The NORMAL version of touchdown should see that this device as higher resolution and will automatically show you tablet mode viewing.
That's how it was on the Galaxy Tab. try it out.

I have a very handy app on my Droid (original) called Setting Profiles (Probeez) which allows me to set my phone state based on certain conditions.
Examples:
Keep the screen on when the headphones are plugged in.
Set the device to silent on Fridays from 12:00 to 1:15 when I am at work (based on GPS).
Turn off the WiFi when I am not at home or at work (based on GPS)
etc.
This app does not appear in the Android Market when searching from the HTC Flyer. I assume that's because many of its conditions are based on a phone state and are irrelevant to the tablet.
Can anyone recommend similar profile manager for the HTC Flyer?
Meanwhile, I am going to find out from the developer if / when it will support the Flyer.
Thanks
try Timeriffic, good app!
Thank you
Not as granular as Setting Profiles but good enough for now.
Has anyone tried Tasked on the Flyer. It looks like it might be as useful as Setting Profiles. The reviews seem to be all over the place depending on your hardware.

i'm using this and I love it!!!
Locale and Tasker are very similar. They even use the same SOUTH, so their plugins are compatible. Tasker is bit more powerful when it comes to creating complex conditions. I used Locale before, but eventually made the switch to Tasker.

$9 unlock? CWP7 UNLOCK?
May be home brew apps?
That's all for now. Or Marketplace. Wait for Interop unlock and you can customise even further, we don't have interop yet, but people are trying hard.
Turn off the sound enhancer. It will perform much better.
Buy an extra battery made for the Amaze or EVO 3D to get a little better life.
Download some apps from the marketplace
Help figure out how to Interop onlock it.

The phone is locked in 3 ways to prevent various security etc issues.
First one is developer unlock - which lets you load apps that are not in market. Same as installing non-market .apk or pirated .apk for android phones.
Second one is interop unlock - similar to root access where you can write and edit registry
Third one is full unlock - which is 'go wild' with your phone unlock.
1st and 3rd are easy. But to get 3rd one, we need 2nd one. Like any new android devices, it's hard to unroot at first. So at the moment there are efforts to root/interop unlock HTC Titan.
But by officially unlocking the phone we can add many apps from XDA which cannot be submitted to market because they are too cool

Just to make a correction, official unlock allows a max of 10 sideloaded apps (3 if you do the Student-based official unlock). Once you interop unlock, you can have an almost limitless number of sideloaded apps.

There are some apps you really should download such as
1)Cool tools is a great app which has some necessary tools such as convertors/stop watch etc.
2)Mehdoh/Seesmic/rowi (all are twitter apps and all are good)
3)Toggle(a great app for making live tiles of Wifi/Bluetooth/Signal etc.)
4)Storm Glass(an excellent weather app with live tile support)
5)Skydrive(w/25GB of free storage for music/apps)
6)Qloud Media(it's like air video for iOS which lets you view your videos that are stored in your PC with your phone)
7)MetroTube (An excellent youtube app)
Hope you enjoy your phone !

Are you sure ? because at first they said it's getting no updates and will be out of marketplace but later they said that they've reached an agreement or something with MS and metrotube will stay in market place(read it in wpcentral.com IIRC)

I am not sure about the agreement. The latest I read was, they will pull it from marketplace but those of us who have it won't lose it due to remote wipe from Microsoft. However, there won't be any updates. I thought we din't need much updates anyway with that app so I am still holding on to the app. However, I hope you are right!
just got a Titan today. less to play around with compared to my hd2. is I.player available for it ?

I just ordered my Titan last night so I'm out of luck when it comes to METROTUBE. My question is, why is METROTUBE special? Is there something wrong with the HTC YouTube app that comes on the Titan?

Youtube app from HTC for me - does the job so I never complain but people who are out there to bash and compare WP7.5 with iOS5 will always say it's not an app.
Metrotube was better looking UI-wise - the metro UI used very well! Does exactly same as HTC's youtube too in terms of function. Oh, some sharing features were different if I am not wrong.
I know most aren't as wild about this app as I am but I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find this app to work with ICS. I've tried Geo-Tagging as well as the Footprints app in the Market but it's not the same as the one that came stock with most HTC phones up until the LTE. If anyone can point me in the right direction that would be great. I can't believe HTC omitted this app. I even contacted them and they pointed me to the app in the Market that, to be frank, sucks! Any help would be greatly appreciated.
They also left out the HTC Notes app that's on the international One X. Not happy about that either.
The Notes app and Flashlight app are located in HTC Hub. However, I'm stuck without my Footprints. Oh well, time to whip something up. LoL
HTC Notes, Where is it located in the HTC Hub? I've looked all thru it.

Supernote works great. It is from the Transformer Prime, but it works on our phone too.
Someone posted it in this section recently I do believe. Search for it and check it out...
Update: I couldn't find the Footprints App but I've found something even better. It's called SpotMarker Pro in the market. I am working closely with the Dev of this app to get it set up to how Footprints was set up. I actually like it better than Footprints and now I don't have to root to get this app.
Thanks, I'm quite a fan of Footprints as well. Good to see another option.
Sent via Tapatalk on my EVO LTE
No problem. It's a great alternative for those that don't wanna root and still have the ability to document the places you've been. The good thing about Spotmarker is you can export your files as a kmz file and that's the same extension that Footprints uses so if you decide to root and tackle Footprints, you won't miss a beat.
Foursquare isn't the likely alternative?
I love it.
Sent from my EVO LTE
I wanted something like Footprints that doesn't rely on logging in on a website. I believe, and I could be wrong, but Foursquare is a web based program that requires you to be online for it to work properly and requires one to sign in. I'd rather not do that so that's why I said Spotmarker was excellent because it works just as well as Footprints, if not better.
Probably better, Footprints never made transporting the data a possibility so sadly you still lose it with every new HTC that had Footprints. So Spotmarker would be better in that respect I guess.
Me:
I turned to Foursquare to retain the data on the phones & PC with the ability to share.

My HTC One (M7) AT&T phone recently received AT&T's software update that updated it to Android 4.4.2 and Sense 6. While looking at the HTC and AT&T overviews for this update I saw reference to the Gallery 'Image Match' feature. Finally a feature that sounds useful. Well, as far as I have determined, AT&T stripped out this feature from the HTC Sense 6 release when they created their update for the M7.
I had extensive tech support communication with HTC and AT&T on this. AT&T initially pointed to their and HTC's documentation stating that the feature was indeed present (i.e. http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8/howto/464947.html - I know that's the M8 but they both said it applied) and that I should engage HTC to see why I couldn't find it on my phone. HTC said it should be there. We did everything short of a full factory reset of the phone and it does not show up. Then they located two of their colleagues' AT&T HTC One M7 phones and compared to an unlocked M7, all with Sense 6 update. The AT&T phones did not have the feature, just like mine. They determined that AT&T must have pulled the feature before building its software update for the phone.
Why would AT&T do that? The feature is not hardware dependent at all. Is it purely to strip out functionality on an 'old' device to hobble it?
Does anyone have an HTC One (M7) from AT&T that DOES have the Image Match feature in the HTC Gallery app??
By the way, one of the undesirable 'features' of the Sense 6 update is the location and style of the lock screen text notifications. They are now at the top of the screen and are transparent to the background. They used to have a darker text box to make the text easier to read. Is there any way to revert this??
Thanks,
Rob
