Is there any way to get this back without rooting the phone?
Thanks,

Friend Stream is really kind of weird as with Task Manager. They are listed in Titanium Backup as apps so we know they are there, but there is no related application listed in the application launcher. They both may be embedded in another application somewhere. Kind of like what they do for the music app...open it and you'll see streaming radio etc.
It's still there. I can get to it through the twitter widget. It will even show FB. However, the combined widget seems to be removed for some reason.

Hmm. Doesn't seem to be working. I added it in to /system/app and I don't see anything. So I then changed permissions to mirror all of the other widgets and I still don't see it. For the heck of it I tried to install it but that didn't work either. Probably something simple I'm missing.

tbh? idk sounds like it should have worked...ill have out the first version of my stock rom tomorrow prolly, it ll be in there fwiw
So can someone share with me how to add this to the stock Droid Incredible 4G LTE ROM without rooting the phone? I might pick one up to test against my Rezound, and don't want to root the phone in case I decide to return it. I have a One X on AT&T right now (work phone), and my Rezound, and am testing a GSIII, which I am not overly impressed of. Really want the One X on Verizon, but we all know that isn't going to happen...

Hello Guys, I've searched through all threads about the friend stream, and there is not much documented on how to access it. A poster on this thread mentioned the Twitter Sense app. Another said that there is no dedicated app in the app tray to launch it, but it is there. HTC just made it hard to access. If the following had been mentioned before, I apologize, I did do a search, but found nothing.
From what I've figured, using the search function within the App Tray, came up with zero results. Using the Google search widget....I typed in "Friend Stream", and lo and behold, the app shows up (App icon being the two white silhouettes of people on a Blue background). Click on it and it is the Friend Stream app.
Access to Friend Stream is also imbedded in another widget. It is called the Social Clock. I accidentally stumbled into this while searching through the whole list of available widgets. It pretty much is the HTC signature clock, but without the date and weather. It is just the time and below the time, the most recent status update from your Facebook feed. Clicking on this part of the widget will get you into the Friend Stream app.
I hope that this helps. One of the great things I think a lot of people liked about the Friend Stream widget from before, was that you were able to update a status directly through the widget without going into a separate app, just right there on the widget. Another, is the unique tag that HTC phone users are given underneath their status update, letting people know that HTC Sense was used.
I might make a new thread, explaining these methods, so that many Inc 4G users will know how to do this, until a Rom makes the widget available or for those who choose to stay with the stock Rom. I'm getting the impression, that not many know of this and are just using the stock FB app. Lemme know if this works for you guys!
I would also be interested in knowing how to get the friendstream widget
Can anyone reccomend an app that offers a similar facebook/twitter widget?
Has anyone figured out how to get the widget back? That is my favorite part of FriendStream.
Thanks guys!
New Dinc 4Glte user missing frienstream widget. I was able to find it through the instructions from ColdWraith but HTC really??
Also, there is a Friendstream lock screen wallpaper. The widget is embedded on the lock screen. It only shows Facebook updates for me unlike the old widget which showed a combination of streams.

Alright, so I did this mock-up to explain:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This is my idea of a pretty neat launcher. Let me explain.
It's a giant launcher where everything is made up of "panels" which is essentially what a widget would be normally, except instead of small icons and widgets making up a grid, you would rather make up this entire tower of "panels" you can scroll through like so:
Once you reach the bottom (like so), you have the option of adding or entering edit mode in which you can change the placement of panels, configure panels, or add more. Also notice the stationary panels at the top and bottom. I figure the top would could be configurable to look however you like or replaced with another replacement panel made for staying at the top at all times. (i.e. you can't replace it with a Last.FM panel, you would have to go about finding a panel that is absolutely meant to be at the top.)
I figure this could also be a pretty accessible thing for everyone in terms of making new panels. Someone would release the base panel code, and then people can configure it to do some pretty neat things, I figure.
I dunno, this just seemed kind of cool in my opinion. I can think of all sorts of panels and stuff like that too - a Favorites/Folder panel, gallery panel, music panel... etc.
Also, I threw this mock-up together pretty fast. I figure the Facebook and Twitter panels would have more to it, heh.
So whatcha think?
EDIT: On a side note, what I was imagining isn't really widget status where you can interact with it so much - you click on it or the link or whatever corresponds with whatever (i.e. you click on a tweet) and it brings you to where you need in order to comment on it or like it through FB and what not.
Hey man, first off, u may want to request this moved to the Apps section. I see the dev side of it but ppl around here get very picky about what should go where. Second, cool idea, im not much one for these kinds of home screens but some ppl like them and the more kinds out there the better.
You may want to check out slide screen from larva labs. sounds very similar.
I believe this is what WP7 is trying to achieve but failing short of it....
Your concept is wonderful (not exactly original because of WP7), but I still like it. To do this you will need some mad skillz with Java and change up the framework and re-organize the notifications/alerts/alarm aspects of the it.
Also the facebook/twitter integration will need to know how to communicate with each respective API.
yeah, this is going in themes & apps.
In the other thread I mentioned that uh, I'm not a developer for anything, let alone Android. I just threw this mock-up out there just as an idea.

The only problem I see is that a lot of widgets would need to be reinvented to fit the new panel system. I don't want to do what the W7 Launcher did and just place the widget in the middle of a box 'cause that... That doesn't look good.
Here's some ideas for panels I pulled out of my brain:

Unless maybe there was a way to remove the background of the widget or force fonts onto widgets, but then again I know nothing regarding the difficulty of this so... Yeah.
But then again, there could be like master panels that have the ability to be set to whatever music program you want from there.
That would minimize the amount of panels that needs to be made. A friends panel = Twitter, Facebook, etc. A music panel (Like Phantom Music Widget) = a lot of music apps. And then maybe a widget panel where if you configure it you can have it attempt to remove the background of the widget so it looks somewhat right on the panel. I dunno.
I dunno man but you have everyone dying to have this made haha

I have recently been playing around with my phone and discovered that with HTC Sense, you can create folders similar to iOS. These folder can be placed anywhere on the homescreen and you can drag apps into them. You can open the folder to view or open the apps that you dragged in the folders.
I don't know how many people know about, but I don't think it is common knowledge or an obvious feature.
To add a folder to your homescreen:
1) Go to the personalize menu
2) Go down to the folders section
3) Press 'New Folder'
4) Drag the newly created folder to anywhere on your homescreen
To rename the added folder:
Note: Sometimes this is buggy and doesn't rename the label.
1) Open the folder
2) On the top of the folder where it says "New Folder," long press. A menu to rename it should come up
3) Rename it
4) Confirm
5) The folder should be renamed
These folders can be pretty useful to help navigate to certain apps, clear up clutter, make everything neater, etc.
Screenshots of what folders look like:

Alright, I'm glad you created this thread, because I've discovered the same kind of cool trick (ala 'Easteregg') with Sense 3.0:
You may not have noticed, but you now have something called 'Market' is your list of applications (trust me, it's there.):
If you click this EXACTLY one time, a portal will open, prompting you to enter your gmail account and password. If you do this EXACTLY right, a Sense feature will be unlocked that will allow you to install a whole slew of new applications DIRECTLY to your phone (kind of like itunes). There are TENS of custom apps available that you will want to try out. In fact, I wrote one of them myself: a little game/(time-killer) called 'Angry Birds', which is available right now for FREE.
(If you enjoy my little game, please hit my 'thanks' button.)
EDIT: Pics (as proof).
The "Market" (if you did it right) looks like this:
In game pic from the 'bird game':
(PROTIP: Try to knock down the 'pigs'.)
Let me know if this Easteregg works for anyone else.

not really like iOS folders b/c it doesn't show the small icons of each app inside on the folder icon. I highly suggest smarter shortcuts b/c of its customization it offers.
I would thank, if this was a feature to add a folder in the app drawer. But I was doing this with my Hero back in the day.

Clearly everyone that visits this forum has had an HTC Android phone from the beginning. There's no possible way that there is even one person who didn't know about the folder option.
I'd noticed the folder option a few times but never really looked into it. The OP shed some light on something that not everyone may have played with yet and he's been burned at the stake for it.
And we wonder why general people and devs are leaving XDA.

Sheese people are so mean and I thought Apple fanboys were bad.
I too never played with the folder. I've seen it but never tried it until today. Thanks OP.
Actually, Sense greatly extends the inventory of possible applications and intents available to this Android feature. Beforehand you all go and dismiss the OP, I invite you to take a closer look at the different shortcuts and application settings that you can place in a folder.
If you haven't tried it you shouldn't knock it. Try my Motorola Photon... it has none of this. In fact the feature set is actually reduced over stock Android.
Thanks OP for reminding us of this.

Hey guys I forgot who had requested a widget to show/hide the system bar In Honey Comb, but here it is! I had a couple people test it before I released it to the market. This is to be used by people who use the Hardware Buttons in HoneyComb. Enjoy
March 18, 2012
Version 3.0 has been released! It includes a smaller widget (1×1) that was requested by users as well as the ability to restore the status bar when the screen turns off. The latter feature allows the widget to be used by more devices that do not have hardware keys.
Along with version 3.0 I have also released a donate version. This version is exactly the same as the free version but costs one dollar for those who feel generous!
You can download it on the android market place by clicking Here for free and Here for donate
Feb 13, 2012
Version 2.0 brings along a new layout as well as more reliable code!

And just incase someone trys this without hardware buttons and opens an app while the bar is hidden the command you can run to get your bar back is:
Code:
am startservice -n com.android.systemui/.SystemUIService
If you feel like donating all money will be put towards my school loans
thanks for this...i haven't installed it because after my initial grumbling i actually prefer the HW buttons off, but it's good to have options
also, no one else replied...SO THANKS

This is a lot better than honeybar which gets in the way. Thanks!
Unfortunately, htc scribe apps still don't like the removed bar. Good for watching video and reading pdfs though.
EDIT: I have a small request. Can you please make the buttons or hitboxes a little bigger? Sometimes it takes a frustratingly large amount of touches to register a show or hide.

Just updated the widget might take a while to reflect on the marketplace but I changed the layout as suggested, it now has a single button. I also optimized the code and changed how things are done internally to ensure that the bar is hidden/shown. Hope you guys enjoy
P.S If you guys want a new icon Post a 512x512 icon im really bad at being creative lol. Ill let you guys choose the best icon and ill change it up
just indispensable.
Just found your update--love it!
I instaled this but v 1.0 - i loved functonality but not the look on it and hard to press a button. So i was very happy to see this. Went on market instaled v 2.0 but no widget apears . App is listed in instaled app. Any help? I did try to uninstal and reinstal; did reboots in between as well.

I like the fact that the widget is a toggle, and maybe this is a silly question, but why do you make it take two icon widths (2x1) rather than just a normal 1x1 icon?
How do I set them to be two different wallpapers like you could before 4.3? It used to be under settings>customize but that menu isn't even there anymore. Would appreciate any alternatives if they removed the feature.
There's never been an option to do that as far as I know, unless you're using a lockscreen app like Widget Locker
Android doesn't allow separate wallpapers like that, only custom launchers like TW or Chameleon, etc. or if you use a lockscreen app..
Because Sense is an only slightly modified version of stock Android (when it comes to system settings like that), they do not offer this option.
Correct me if I'm wrong?
You could do it before, I think it was a Sense 5 feature. But now, HTC removed that option in Sense 5.5

No, I think you're confused.
We're still on Sense 5, and you could never do that. You don't have Sense 5.5 unless you're on a custom ROM.

After updating to 4.3 last night I gave this a try and I still have this option available to do custom Lock Screen WP and Home Screen WP. Maybe its an issue with your phone? are you rooted and custom stock ROM?

Hmm...
Yes, I noticed this feature had disappeared today when my phone upgraded to Sense 5.5 and Android 4.3. Although I couldn't see anything that it was going to do this prior to the upgrade, there only seems to be limited information about what the upgrade actually changes.
Since they got rid of the feature to display Owner Information on the lock screen in case I misplace my (really quite expensive!) phone, and also sealed the battery inside the HTC one so I can't stick a business card in there with my contact details so that if somebody finds my phone, they might just be able to return it to me, I used the Lock Screen wallpaper to put my owner information on that screen.
Now this is gone too... sigh.
It would seem that there's no reason for getting rid of this, other than perhaps certain mobile operators do not want customers to remove their logo or advertising from the lock screen every time they get their phone out of their pocket, you have to be advertised at. Otherwise, why the hell remove this functionality?
Seems paying lots of money for a handset even without a contract to a particular network doesn't escape you from this crapness.

There's no help, it's just gone. Maybe some devs will be able to tweak something and allow us to change them again, but for now it's just not possible.

For years developers have sought a clean way of merging HTC Sense features with AOSP. In most cases it involves installing alternate launchers and widgets from the Play Store. HTC has now released Blinkfeed as a download now for certain devices. The DNA doesn't seem to make the cut according to the apps' lack of appearance in the Play Store but seems to work fine on Carbon. I will update the compatibility list as time progresses or pull if people report problems.
If you're running AOSP and miss Blinkfeed, try the apk's. (Note: the Blinkfeed launcher will replace any other homescreen replacement app currently in use. The HTC service pack apk is a prerequisite.

OMG!!! Seriously is this what I think it is??? Will I seriously be able to flash the HTC Blinkfeed Sense 6 launcher on top of AOSP/AOSB/AICP/ and any CM based ROMs??? I am doing cartwheels right now If you don't mind me asking, what are the proper steps to flashing this mod onto a ROM once download?

Just download and install the apk's as you would a normal app.
Will this also work if I flash it on top of Nusense Max Sense 5.5 Given its already HTC would the service pack prerequisite still be required, etc. I like the look of the One Max layout but wldnt mind to have the Sense6 Blinkfeed.

There is no flashing of anything. The apks are installed within Android OS. You can try to install them and report back. Try blinkfeed only first and see if it works, it will tell you if you need an updated HTC services app.
[HTC One X] Content is not available
Hi xlxcrossing,
I got it installed on my HOX, however, anytime I tap on add content, the content tab appears for a glance and then be kicked out to the blink feed page without any feed :crying:.
Does it happen on any other devices and how could I fix it?
Cheers,

I'm experiencing similar issues as well as force closes. Blinkfeed usually installs and begins working properly but eventually becomes incompatible. I may need to update the OP to reflect this.
Same thing...Has there been no fix? Running Liquid Smooth 3.2 on HTC One Android 4.4.4 I really like Blinkfeed hate that its not available on AOSP. Installed the .apk files and then when that didnt work tried to d/l from play store it said my phone wasnt compatible.
help
Apk of htc blinkfeed and htc service pack 01/08/2014.
thanks
FYI if installed on a larger device like my LG G3, the apps are not arranged correctly on homescreens, they are bunched up in the corned as if on a smartphone screen rather than a tablet.
This is awesome! The only problem I'm running across is that the weather clock (Sense 7) doesn't give my location or update the weather. I have the HTC location services installed and GPS on and it don't show up in accounts.
UPDATE: I now have this running 100%,just took a little extra time and a few additional files not found here. If you want/like Blinkfeed and don't want to have to load your phone up with Sense 6 or 7, this is the route to take. If anyone needs any help, just send me a PM and I'll do the best I can.

What were the additional files needed? I'm looking to install Blinkfeed on my stock Nexus 6.

The files I needed were for the location and weather which were the only parts of blinkfeed not operating properly until I got those two files which I Googled (I believe I found them on Aptoide). If I feel a little better later today or tomorrow I'll post which version of each of the files that I'm using.
