On EVO 4G I could just install Contacts.APK from CM7.
But this does not seem to work on EVO 3D.
I'd like to keep Sense, but just want the AOSP Contacts side by side.
I've tried copying file to System/App as well and the App won't even show up.

tried searching for it. not the 3d version the one with the green/blue icon that will sort by camera shots, albums and folders. i think it was on the incredible and the evo. i have it on the evo with 2.2 so i guess it is the gallery apk from 2.2?
Sorry, this will not work because you need the EVO version of android to be able to run this. Its called Sense UI and it runs through the entire OS, not just the APK. Im sure it could be ported to run on the vibrant but as of now, its not gonna happen any time soon.
I found this in the Desire Z forums and tried it out.

So far so good. Found all my pics and the camera button is even linked to the HTC camera, so it can easily replace the Sense App.
Hope this helps someone.
Works awesome, takes a sec to load pictures but everything is fully funtional. I don't really like the htc gallery. The only thing that sucks is that the camera takes you back to the htc gallery if you hit the gallery button on the camera app.

Any chance this gallery links to your picasa albums? I have some albums that I enjoy pulling wallpapers from, but Sense gallery doesn not pull them into the phone.

It sure does.
sweet, I know what I'll be getting after perma-root gets working.
Man this is the first time I've seen the 3D gallery move this quickly. I liked the look of it on the Hero, but it was slow to load.
After the initial load up there is no hesitation on the Shift.
This isn't going to make my phone go nuts, is it?
When i had a Moment, if the stock gallery and the 3D gallery were even installed at the same time, not running, it would make the phone slow down like crazy.

You don't need root. Just install the .apk like any other app.

My Shift is running just fine with it and stock gallery. But my Moment didn't have problems when both were installed either.
It's not only about the slowness but the 3d gallery is very unstable even when it comes as stock on many phones if not all the thumbnail cache is a pain in the butt... deleting caches with Astro to rebuild then use it a few days then again black squares as thumbnails.. Nah! I rather use the stock sense gallery works great!

I had those problems on my Moment but not on the Shift. It is slow to load the thumbnails for the first time but when you've got 20GBs of photos on Picasa that you'd like ready mobile access to it's the way to go. I'm actually really impressed with it. The only problem is that it keeps asking me for permission to sync with a gmail that I've already turned the sync off to and that I've already denied access to.
Would it be possible to use the contact and dialer from an AOSP rom on a sense rom. I tried using the ones from CM7 and am having some issues.
Edit: I figured it out and have AOSP contacts and dialer now working on a Sense 3.0 Rom incase anyone wants it!
Not saying I particularly want it but why offer it but share no information on how to do it?

I did it that way because I didn't make the mod. The thread started out because I was having issues getting the AOSP contacts and dialer to work on my phone, so I was looking for help. After I figured it out I thought I would see if anyone was intreasted in this mod and I can send them the file or explain how they can get them. I used the contacts from CM7 which includes the dialer. If you use the dialer.apk from CM7 it will break your phone, Kills signal / service. I have the contacts pulled from that Rom if anyone wants it. I take no credit for it in any way.
im Interested!!! Hate the Rosie Dialer!!
I have a Rogers GSm version, dont know if that would affect anything
Here is the contacts apk. It is NOT flashable through recovery. Install using a file manager (like Astro) I did not create this so I take no credit for this. This came from CM7.

This is interesting. Many people including myself have wanted to have the option to integrate the aosp dialer/ contacts into a sense based rom since the good old Hero days but based on the way the two are integrated into Sense roms as a whole, this has never been possible.
I can't remember the technical reasons why, only that many concluded it wasn't much of a possibilty.
Anyway, if anyone else can confirm that we can now have these features integrated into Sense as the op states, that would be awedome.

There are a few issues with using the ASOP contacts with a sense rom. For instance joining contacts will cause a FC. I run a customized rom with as much sense removed as possible. To achieve this I have modified the ASOP contacts to work better on sense. I've never released the modified contacts because I don't have time to support it. The features I use work fine now (for instance the join fc is fixed) ; however, I'm sure there are other issues and at the moment I have no time to resolve anything found.
If people are willing to live with what you get is what you get I can post my modified contacts tonight after work.
HtcDialer still needs to be installed. I can also post a version of this modded to hide the icon from the app drawer and to stop it from being used for certain functions (a convenience feature so I don't have to select the ASOP contacts as the default)

anyone has a working version of the HTC Family or does it even work on sense 3.0 rom? I've found a version online and put under system/app and changed permission for both Amaze 4g running sense 3.0 and Sensation 4g running sense 3.5 and not working.
In Amaze, the app won't even launch, just FC right away. In Sensation, the app will launch, shows intro and requirement, when tap on "next" the app FC as well.
Just wondering anyone else has this app in their phone and working.
thanks,
Anyone able to successfully upload photos to select albums?
I keep getting constant failure notices no matter what I'm uploading over (3G/WiFi/4G) & even when removing & adding the HTC/Facebook account on both ends (Facebook.com's Application Permissions).
I'm on the stock rooted 2.17 ROM deodexed. Rom wiped & came back; still had the problem. Changing ROMs.
Is this a widespread problem?
I have this problem as well.

You guys having problems syncing as well? My brother says his Facebook/Twitter contacts won't sync and update.
I can get HTC Peep (Twitter) to work ok as far as sync goes, even HTC/Friendstrem Facebook status/contacts.
Works here.

Had an issue over the weekend with a photo not uploading, but all seems to work now. I just uploaded a photo in Gallery (with tags from FB contacts) and everything seems to have synced well.
Maybe just a temporary issue?
Hopefully it's back up & running. I'll give it a try later.
Thanks.
I've had this problem for 10 days or so. Also, sometime I have three Share to Facebook apps, and sometimes I have four. But only one of them allows multiple picture selection, which is what I normally do.
Im having the same problem too, not able to upload photos to a selected album via HTC sense.
Uploading without specific album (Mobile upload) is fine though.
HTC please do something !!
no problems here, uploaded about 15 pics yesterday to various albums
Still having the problem myself. :/
If only the brilliant minds at Facebook would've added a multi photo-upload option to the regualr application, I wouldn't care.
Guess I'll be doing multi-uploads from the Laptop.
