New HTC Sync sucks - HTC Amaze 4G

Anyone else having problem with Sync after the last PC update? Till yesterday it was working well, then I decided to update it, since then it doesnt see my phone. Followed all instructions, including disabling the antivirus during install, tried it twice - nada... Now I dont know if I can do s-off without it, just found a good wire. That f****** sucks!

So I can confirm that the new Sync v3.2.10 does not support Amaze 4G (although they claim it supports all HTC devices), and had to find the previous version (3.0.5617) which works fine. The funniest thing - in the main HTC website Amaze 4G is not even listed, as if it doesnt exist. I can only say that HTC totally sucks ass and that surely will be my last HTC device... If anyone else needs to install 3.0.5617, heres the link:

It should start downloading right away...

[Q] HTC Hub for Thunderbolt?

Has anyboby been able to port HTC Hub to the Thunderbolt? Don't we need that app for HTCSense .com? I dont think its fair we got a new Sense device and can't use the website. I tried looking for the app in the system dump for the HTC Inspire but had no luck finding it. Maybe it's renamed something different (because there were plenty of apk I had no idea what they were and some are named clearly).
If anyone can find this that would be awesome! It's not fair we don't get the little perks that the HTC site has to offer like wiping phone data if completely lost, GPS tracking, call and message forwarding, typing messages on your phones lock screen from the computer, checking messages and missed calls from computer, finding the phone when on silent and thats just naming a few perks. Maybe we'll have to wait for a ROM to port it.
I was looking for it as soon as i got the phone, got disappointed that it wasn't there
wasnt it announced at CES that TB was going to have access to htcsense.com or am i mistaken?
YES!!! Thats why its not fair. My brother works and VZW corporate and said VZW took it off. Dont know why though.
There's a partial workaround over in the Dev section.

Appreciate it!
A VZW rep I spoke with said they may be introducing their own cloud wipe/locate type solution. Maybe they don't want HTCsense.com to compete.

Yea there is a workaround, but call forwarding and remote wipe do not work.

I have been talking to HTC, the Verizon Thunderbolt is supported. But they have been doing major maintenance on the website the last month. All the features will soon work, I have most of them working now. Just need themes/hub/navigation to get everything working.
how do you have this working? can you get the htc hub app somewhere?

[Q] Few questions from New Vibrant/Old Galaxy S user.

So I just purchased a brand new Vibrant 4g for the amazing deal of only $250 after I sold my captivate for the same price last night. I have a few questions that hopefully can be answered.
1. I have names in my messages? For example. My message might say "Me: How are you doing?" with the incoming being "*name here*: I am so awesome. Nothing can touch my awesomeness". This to me, is a complete waste of my messaging space since I can just look up top to see the name of who it is. My Captivate did not have this same "problem".
2. Double Contacts. This has probably been covered, but a google search wasn't bringing much up. I have double contacts in the Contacts app and when selecting people for a message. I can change the setting for contacts and its normal there, but there is still double in messaging, which is annoying. It shouldn't be hard to fix and ill probably just end up deleting my contacts from my SIM, but if there is an easier way I would appreciate it.
3. Rooting/Custom Roms. Now with the Captivate being one of the most active in the custom things, naturally I was flashing back and forth constantly because, well, its fun.
-Do procedure for the 4g vary from the 3g? I would assume that rooting and stuff should be exactly the same.
-Does the Vibrant use Odin like the Captivate in the exact same way? Dont want to get stuck in a brick.
Thanks to anyone who could answer some of these for me, I really appreciate it. I may think of more questions eventually, but these are it for now.
you should try going to the "samsung galaxy s 4g" forum. i thinks thats what its called...i also had a samsung 4g but returned it 3 days later. i believe that as of right now you can just get root access. no custom roms or tweaks. unless up to this date a dev has figured something out. hope that helps.

So it is pretty different than the 3g then? Hmm...
Ok thanks, Ill go check out the 4g section then.

Getting really sick of my atrix switching back to my N1 until something better comes.

ok i dont even know where to start... I dont usuallypost that many threads *****ing and complaining about my phone.. but enough is enough...
I haven't rooted...(well I did a while ago BUT)... I took part in that beta testing update crap so it unrooted me.. but these problems I have been having are since the LAST "update" which was well over two months ago now (I THINK)...
1st problem I am having is randomly I cannot input text into ANY thing on the phone... I am using smart keyboard pro.. but even when i change input methods it still does not register anything i am typing... in fact when i switch the phone to landscape mode the text box goes dark grey...
2nd also when this happens... nothing will happen when i attempt to make a phone call... i click the name .. nothing happens.. i go into dialer... i cant input the number i try other methods of dialing out nothing happens....
those are the two biggest problems I have as I need to communicate with my clients all day long i cannot have this type of inconsistency.
ohh and also the finger print scanner just plain doesn't work when i go through the process of setting it up.. it wont even register the "test" swipes... its like its broken all together.... any one else having ANY of these problems?? please help me
I've never had any of those problems ever and I've had my atrix since launch date. Maybe you have a deffective device call and see if your provider will do anything about.

to be honest... and i know it sounds pretty stupid.. but... i really dont know how to flash the sbf... i know what it is followed the thread on it when it first came out... but never put the effort into figuring out how to actually do it... and right now i just don't have the time to sit down and do that.... (lazy.. it is what it is) but that could very well fix my problem i guess right... ugghh
ok
good luck sell me ur atrix I need a second one for testing purposes
If you feel adventurous enough, try disassembling the device and reseating the LCD/digitizer cable.
I had an issue with a Samsung galaxy s vibrant about a month ago that would register touch inputs when it was just sitting on the table. I did what I suggested above and the problem was solved.

So you cant input any text and you cant make any phone calls. You know what sbf is youve seen the thread and realize that it could fix the problem but your admitedly too lazy to do it. Okay, thanks for sharing!

LOL! I mean, why don't u just go back to it and making useless comparisons?
If you took some time to read, your problem would already be solved.
1. Your digitalizer may not be working well. Guarantee will cover this.
2. SBF from scratch to discard a software issue.
None of the issues you are experiencing is related to the phone being a dual-core mobile or not.
I've been able to solve some problems by reading and taking the advice from the forums.
If your Atrix looks ****ty, it's not on it. Mine shines!
Waste of forum space!
Warranty!
Bye!
Don't let the door hit you....
Err... you have a broken phone, bro. There are lots of bugs with the Atrix but yours is simply a broken phone.
Hell if you want to complain about a phone, give me it. Ill put the work into fixing it and love it. >.< this phone sucks.

C'mon man, flashing an SBF is simple! The instructions on XDA are very detailed. I am a lifelong Mac user, and even I figured out how to flash an SBF via Windows. It would not take more than a couple hours to download all the stuff you need, and re-flash an SBF. What's your build number now?

What are you even doing in this forum? My Aria is sitting in the box on the floor.
Swifted from my Atrix.
I've come across the keyboard input bug with alternate keyboards before.
SBF your phone, there's plenty of guides available how to do this, or you can download the moto update tool from their website.
Well as they say on WOW and other MMORPG...
Can I have your stuff??

[Q] HTC Watch keeps asking for update

I have noticed that on pretty much every Rom HTC Watch asks to update, but the update finds nothing new. Has anyone found a solution for this problem?
Well they had released an update for htc watch a month or two ago, but to get the update u have to be stock. Maybe has somethin to do with it idk, just a thought

its just bs. JUst do the update and be done with it....stupid bloatware.theres no porn channel on htc watch so useless to me
cant you just freeze or remove your htc update or whatever htc utilizes for updates?
I did that with the moto stuff on my dx, saved me from 621 hell.
use TB and freeze it.
Yeah just uninstall that junkware... It's no good anyway. #netflix #huluplus

Well, the thing is I use HTC Watch. Tmobile actually gives you a $10 credit with the phone. It's not bad actually and I was just hoping someone had a solution for it. At most I found a workaround by using the widget instead of the app icon itself. It's not the best workaround, but it does the job so far. Anyone else notice this problem though?
Yeah, I'm having the same problem and I'm on stock rom. so, it's a problem on htc's side...

any update?
Same issue here.
Started using my EVO 3D again a few weeks ago when HTC Watch had the .05 cent weekend movies. So for the past few weeks i have been renting and watching and yesterday i got a notification for an update for HTC Watch. However when i click OK it takes me to HTC Software Updates, when i click check for update No Updates are found.
Essentially making my Watch useless.
The only work around i found was to create the full page widget and select my movies there.
I have an EVO 3D GSM and what I did to fix the issue was this:
dial *#*#682#*#* (the dial pad disappears and you see your up/down arrows for your data signal light up) and the phone automatically tries to do a software look up with HTC. It told me that I have a HTC Watch update. I downloaded it and it finally installed correctly.
