So when I first turned on the phone a few nights ago there was a flashlight app on there out of the box. I've since done all of the updates and installed a bunch of stuff, but not removed anything. Now I can't find the flashlight app at all.
Anyone else notice this?
Mine didn't have one before I did the updates. Huh.

I never had it, but this works great
I swear it was there cause Wednesday night I was playing with it and thinking "awesome they included this" because it was one app that was a must for me on my old Moment.
I never had it either
You must of got the only phone that had it in the world lol cause noone else had it

Is your S-off as well?
sent from my 3rd dimension capable device...
For what its worth, the flashlight IS supposed to be there...there are instructions for accessing it in the HTC mobile guide included on the phone...I went looking for the app also after reading that.

Ha, I wish
Anyways, it was there and now it's not - I'm 100% sure on that. I used it when I first turned on the phone and was checking out the stock apps. Also it's on page 102 of the user guide as a feature.
Maybe someone who is just getting the phone can check it out when they first turn on the device.
I took the OTA updates, so I wonder if they deleted the app somehow, or maybe it's hidden in the app drawer. Either way it's very strange.
So the flashlight app is back. It appeared in the HTC hub this morning and I was able to reinstall it. It's the same app that was preinstalled on the phone when I first got it.
Weird...I never had it either. I downloaded Tiny Flashlight +LED and it works great. It's the same one I used on my Epic as well. Lots of options (for a flashlight).
Flashlight is now in HTC hub

Just tried this it works. Basically log into Facebook on a Blackberry and get push notifications. I know we all hate Facebook works on android but if you want a notification instantly when someone contacts you, try this.

You should change it to "making facebook notifications work" I did that yesterday I though it was interested and for some reason so far is working, even tho i have been getting most of my notifications on my evo 3d already
If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d

Np man, my friend went to the sprint store to do it in a store demo and it worked lol

I read about this and thought about trying it. It's always annoyed me that I never got any facebook notifications, because I thought I was supposed to...ya know?
...but the more I thought about it the more I realised how irritating it would be to actually get all of my facebook notifications in my notification bar...and how much more annoying it would be to have a notification sound to go with it....and I don't even have a huge friend list...
Even though notifications was a huge problem with fb app, its still not that useful of an app compared to like bb or ios versions. Ive found friendcaster works way better nd always shows notifications and takes u directly to the appropriate place in the app. It does forward u to the touch or mobile site for a few things here nd there but overall way ahead of official app!

I like friendcaster a bit better than the standard app as well. Still, it could be much better.
Haha...this is funny because I posted these exact same findings on another Android site (the "Central" one) last Friday, August 5th and by Sunday the mods had tested it, put up a video, shot it to the front page and made a Sticky of it in the Applications forum. I can tell you that it works. Facebook for Android basically piggy backs on the Blackberry for Android permissions. There's approximately about 95% functionality with this. One of the things that doesn't work correctly for example are Poke notifications. You get the push notification but when you click on that particular one nothing happens. It's a very minor issue in my book.
What is this Facebook?
Don't worry guys, After Nov 5 Facebook is no more.

My recent phone history: BB Curve>BB Tour>HTC Hero>HTC EVO 4G>Samsung Epic>HTC EVO3D
I just checked and I still have the BB permissions on my FB Account Setting and I'm not getting push notifications.
I will try to sign in on a BB when I get access to one because I remember getting push notifications on my Hero when I had it, which was directly after I had the Tour.
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

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.
what gives? it worked before, all of a sudden, doesn't work. what i mean is, when listening to music on youtube, the audio would still play after the screen is turned off, now, all of a sudden, it doesn't do that. any help would be greatly appreciated.
and this is for a friends amaze 4g
thats kinda vag is he ona custom rom etc
nope, fully stock
Same problem here. I hope it is nothing to do with the update that I recently got.
I am on Pinnacle 1.3.
Mine never did thst.. n after I would have to refresh page just to get the video to play again

If you just view the Youtube Update option in Market, you'll see tons of people complaining of this after the last Youtube Update.
So your friend updated his Youtube and that's the culprit. They changed how the app works. Has nothing to do with the phone.
Yeah i updated 2 and i hate it .....

I can't seem to recall youtube not working while screen is off.....
Maybe because the screen doesn't die while the app is active.
Or its just not seeing the difference between audio and video

Old Youtube APK
Could someone that knows what they're doing pull the apk for that "old youtube"
incase we update over and update over and update and then lose it forever?
I don't fully understand how it works but I assume it's the same thing like people pulling the apk for the old market right?
Just thought it would be a good idea to have the "old youtube apk" floating around on here so if a time comes when we need it we already have it.
Thanks.
Oh yeah, if that's NOT how it works...I apologize.
So I've came across the official HTC flashlight app and figured others would want it also.
Just click on the link below and download. MAKE SURE TO HAVE UNKNOWN SOURCES CHECKED TO BE ABLE TO DOWNLOAD!
Once downloaded just download a file manager from the playstore go to downloads and find it and install.
Works perfectly and has all three brightness settings. Just tap the button on the flashlight and bam your good to go and don't have to be afraid of the dark anymore!
This app is not guaranteed to keep boogie men, monsters, stalkers, serial killers, and other things that go bump in the night away, its simply a flashlight and most it can do is blind those and enable a chance to run away and piss your pants.
Enjoy!!!

For what it's worth, TeslaLED is a free Market alternative that has a Sense-widget, much like the HTC Flashlight of yesteryear. I've found it to be the closest copy (in a good way) to the HTC Flashlight widget I used to love.
Bonus: No intrustive permissions like some flashlight apps;
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wxLDMsImNvbS50ZXNsYWNvaWxzdy5mbGFzaGxpZ2h0Il0.
Permissions:

TAKE PICTURES AND VIDEOS

PREVENT TABLET FROM SLEEPING PREVENT PHONE FROM SLEEPING

Why settle for after market flashlights when you can have the official one.

i like tiny flashlight + led. It has a widget you can press to turn the light on and off without going into an app.

Yeah I had only used it once when I first got the phone. But a co worker said he saw a pop up when he tried to use it so it made me curious. Thought I'd spread the word of what I found.

After it uninstalled itself this morning, I am still left with a Vutalk uninstall app AND when in a call, I STILL SEE VUTALK on the call screen! What kind of half baked nonsense is this?

Google Play should have installed an app that will delete the data.
The service (as stated) is going offline July 1st, so that may be why you can still see things.

It did, but that button in a call still remains as does the non functional Vutalk Uninstall app. Very odd...
Hey, sorry for hijacking- but have any of you been able to get a Vibrate On Call Connection (as opposed to an outgoing call dialed) feature to work? I've tried everything outside of flashing a new ROM & basically the consensus is that it's an issue with LG itself.
I only tried to use Vutalk once as I only my mother had it. The app just uninstalled itself a few minutes ago so I searched and found this thread.
If you're rooted you can get rid of the remnants with Xposed (not sure which module it is, though)
Edit: Found it, it's G2 TweaksBox => Calls Tweaks
lg vutalk went of lg server is there any way to reactivate this personally??
Hey all,
I'm actually really upset that Lg took away VUTALK.. it really ruined my day when I found out perhaps it was one of reasons I decided to go with Lg in the first place.. is there anyone that can tell me if there's anyway around this.. I really want to make this feature work again and cannot understand Why everyone felt it was so unbeneficial.. it was very useful to me.. please give me any advice I'm not exactly tech savvy when it comes to this stuff.. but I was thinking if servers down then there's no way for me to go around it?
I not use it never...anyway, i uninstalled VuTalk
