Go to apps, and login to HTC HUB with the same username and password that you created from HTCSENSE.com.
Drop me a line if you have any problems or questions!

I've been getting the error that it can't connect to my device whenever I try to find my location or ring it, but everything else seems to be working. This has been like this for me since Wednesday.
Edit: seems I had to remove and readd my account since I had my phone signed up for it before the actual release date.

facebook doesn't log in. help please?

Brand new GSII, so it's running KE3 and completely stock on T-Mobile.
the Facebook app from Market lets me login and use it. But when I want to connect my facebook account with the social hub OR through "accounts and sync" (in settings) it says connection failed. Try again.
I've done that repeatedly (on wifi and 3G) and it still fails.
Anyone know how to fix this?
(btw am I right in believe that this will allow me to link my facebook contacts with my contacts on my phone - thus pulling down their profile pics - and bringing up the little "f" icon showing that they're linked??)
Thanks for any replies

That's why it's really annoying for me. I had the Desire and I really liked the fact that I had little pictures next to the people I was texting!!

I have been able to log in all the time, but getting the features to work is another story. I have been able to get them to work exactly two times. Once, on the first day I got it on June 22nd on initial setup. The other time was maybe a couple days later. I tried locking the phone via the site but nothing happened. Around 5 or 6 hours later when I got home from work, looked at my phone and it had just locked itself. Nothing since then
EDIT: Just deleted and readded my htcsense account and can now get the ring phone function to work. Location gives an error. Tried locking again and it seems like the request went through. I am guessing my phone will lock itself in a few hours, lol
I use dolphin browser to get on in my phone , and it works , but I had set up since the first port of my og EVO so no problems hhere

Phone ring works every time. It's instant.
Same here, I can login but nothing works.
I'm able to log in, but htcsense.com thinks the device finder on my phone is disabled even though it is not. I logged a ticket with HTC a week or so ago and they replied saying that they've seen an unexpected volume and it is a known issue, etc.
I was able to create an acct, but during the verifiy device stage, it tells me to log in to HTC Sense... wtf? There's no selection for that in "SetUp" Only FB for sense and twitter for sense...

How do you delete the account and create another? No functions are working for me, I am able to login.

It worked fine for me, however there's a big delay. Just download SeekDroid for 99c. Best app for what you're looking for, EVER. You don't need root. You can wipe (everything, including SD card)/enforce or remove a password/track your phone almost INSTANTLY on Google Maps/alarm, grab a list of recently made, received, or missed calls AND the IMEI/ESN of the phone. Plus there's a mobile interface so you can hop on your buddy's phone if your phone is lost and there's no computer around.

HTC offline navigation

Maybe I've over looked it and if I have I apologize but what ever happened to HTC's offline navigation from the desire hd
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
Haha, wow I completely forgot about that feature. They showed it off like it was going to be the next best thing. I wonder what happened to it.
yeah the whole HTCSense.com thing they made a big deal about and i just realized now that I dont show my EVO3D when I log into that site. Used to work fine when it was ported over to the EVO4G.
EDIT:
I deleted my account since I couldn't change the device from the one i created with the EVO4G port rom way back when. When creating a new one I found it odd that they even offer the ability to select the EVO3D as your device but you can't even set it up b/c you need the ability to sign into HTCSense from your device which we can't evidently since its not there in the setup to begin with.....WTF???
Yeah i was thinking about this feature and forgot about it.... Looks like htc did too lol.

yeah thats what im on the original OTA xHausx one posted. They are in the accounts and sync but when you redo setup like htcsense.com asks you to do, you dont get an htcsense.com page to log in.
on a side note im continuing to show there is an update for htcwatch, but ONLY when I view it under the htc hub apps page. I dont have it in the notification pulldown at all and when i select update it updates it fine but whenever i go back to see the app in htc hub it shows theres an update for it.
Keep in mind I dont have anything blocked here and have all the htc/sprint spy stuff still on it since im only on the stockrooted one xhausx originally put up. real odd behavior since it acts fine and says update is there but not in the notification pulldown.
Also noticed i can't connect to the HTC Sense server right now for some reason. opening up HTC Likes app from the app drawer gives me the "unable to connect to the HTC Sense server. please try again later." message. Guess they might be doing work on it b/c i have full connection here fine....would explain why i couldn't get it to work on htcsense.com earlier too i guess.
BUT, i can go to accounts&sync and have HTCSense sync both HUB and Sense fine...
I'm not sure what is OP's question about it. I have offline Navigation on my Rogers EVO 3D. I read that it is a 30-day trial, but I didn't see anything like that when I use it.

Hmm, I know my maps work offline, Google Maps or HTC keeps them somehow. I wonder where its being stored?
Kill your data connection & then open Maps, it works.

[Q] CM7 ICS prefinal

Hi,
I cannot see an option to setup an email account outside of corporate or Gmail. I did do a search through the forums but came up empty.
Have I missed something fundamental.
Tried setting up the POP account through the corporate icon but of course it could not communicate with the server.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sydpark

Can't you just select "email" from the application list and go from there? Once you type in the email address and password select "manual setup" and configure it accordingly. You will need your outgoing and incoming mail server etc etc.
If that doesn't work for you for some reason you can always download K-9 mail from the market. Its free and has a ton of features.
Good luck! Let me know if you still need any further assistance
I think I'm going to give this rom one more shot today. I like it, but I'm not so crazy about the on screen buttons at the bottom. They seem redundant to the ones already on the atrix.

I couldn't handle that, it would suck to have those extra on screen buttons!

Yes, they are launcher based, not Android based.
I really don't know how the real ICS would work on smartphones with harware keys. Redundant and i hated the ICS Launcher on this ROM just for that reason.

Please Help New to Android

Hello everyone, my name is Bryan and im new here. Hopefully I haven't broken any rules as I post this thread, but my friens told me about XDA and said that you guys here could help
I finally upgrade my Sprint account to the Motorola Xprt. Whether you like it or not, its a huge difference from the HTC Snap running on Windows that I had. Ok, so I am having a hard time tying to figure out a few things and thought I would ask the community and see whats the outcome.
First, a few of the key things I like and had with the HTC is the ability to use my personal sounds files for my Text messages, incoming email, power low, new voice mail, etc. I cannot figure out how to do this. It took me about a week to figure out the "adding a folder named ringtone" trick to my Micro SD card so I can access them separately from my mp3 music. Any ideas as to how I can change the tunes to my own?
Second, the Alarm really is very low when it plays, if I am streaming music or playing mp3's, it doesn't play the sound files that I want, but a default one instead. This is critical in my line of work as a driver, I need a cat nap every now and then, and I like to stream music when I nap, so its imperative that I can get a louder alarm clock that enables me to play my own files.
Third, On the old Windows platform, when someone called me and I missed the call, it would be right one the screen in list form, one missed call and Voice mail. On this phone, I have to tap and drag the small top part of the screen to view my missed calls. Is there a way to have it as a list instead?
Fourth, On the HTC Snap, I used TCPMP to stream music from different websites. The cool thing about it is that I was able to add my own personal music files and playlists. That way as i am driving down the road, if I lost connection, it would bounce to the next line and play stored music until I got into a service area again and I would simply just click on the websites link again. Is there a software out there that will let me do this?
Fifth, Google Voice prefix's. again on the Snap, I had my Google voice set up on phone and my contacts had the prefixes on them as well. When I switch phones, I logged into Gmail, and followed the steps to move over my contacts. Ever thing went fine. The only problem is that this phone is so much faster than the Windows, that it speeds right through all the numbers and commas before the female Google voice has a chance to say anything. Is there a fix to this? Here below is the way its set up on my old phone. when I call Airtran to check a flight during peak hours, its prestored into the contact as this Airtran
my gmail number,,password,2,8002478726# So is the solution to simply add a ton of commas to make it slower? Or is there a real fix for it?
Appreciate any and all help..
Bryan
First, try putting these folders on your sd card and filling them with whatever goodies you like
/media/audio/notifications/
and
/media/audio/ringtones/
Second, find an alarm app in the market that you like. Keep trying until you find one you like. If you have a crappy speaker then you are SOL or maybe an app like volume+ would help.
Third, for the voicemail thing it sounds like you would like a widget. Try the market again. If its the dialer you don't like look for the app dialer one or the google voice app.
Fourth, google voice maybe.
Fifth, good luck.
have you installed the correct drivers on your computer for this phone?

ok, I will try the folder thing. What drivers are you talking about? This is the first Android phone I owned. I didn't know I needed to download anything..

Your computer sees your phone as a piece of hardware. Just like when have a printer you have to install the drivers before you can print. just do a search for motorola xprt drivers.

I tried the folder thing you suggested and it did not work. After bouncing around the internet, I found a thread that said to have a folder called "notifications" on the SC card and put the files in there. That's what I did and I got the Text Message and Email tones to work the way I want to. My next Q is how to do this for the New Voice Mail. In text and email, I had to go to my texts and email, and then settings, then notifications, and then select the tones of my choice. Where do I do that with the Voice mail? I don"t see the setting for voice mail at all..

this is an android thing, though you still should be able to see little icons up the top of your screen when you get a missed call, right?
Ice Cream Sandwich has a solution for this, but that's not available for your phone, so there should be an app that can do that.
Your looking for a 'lockscreen' app. The ring app that was mentioned above is one such app
AANNDD.. I'm not sure whether you asked this or not, but I figured I would answer anyway
to make your device be seen by your computer, you need to install the Android USB driver, which is included in the Android SDK.
alternatively you can search XDA for the 'Android USB Driver', someone will have uploaded it, but it's most definitely what's going to help your computer see your android device
