That was one of my favorite widgets.

I got my wife the Inc 4G LTE and couldn't find it. If you look in the location where you uninstall apps, you'll actually see a couple entries for FriendStream.
I called HTC and got the run around but then spoke with a supervisor who stated that going forward (and starting with the Inc 4G) they will no longer be using FriendStream on their phones. I guess too many people complained about Sense being bloated...which I hear all the time. but they've made a horrible decision and have done away with one of their top widgets. Which is what I think sets SenseUI apart from other UI's....excellent widgets.
I wish there were a way to get it back on there. Friendcaster's widget is OK, but doesn't update correctly.

Carrier Coverage

So not sure if this has been discussed previously but it would definitely help back up the need for improvement in the antenna or network. This app basically pings the cellphone towers for data and reports it, you can read more on the link below.

nice app thanks bro
just so you guys know this app is collecting our IMEI and ESNs (unique device id) i just started a thread on their forum asking them why.
edit: they changed the app so they no longer store our IMEI or ESN and added some security to the app. i am impressed by their response and just installed the app.
I figure both to distinguish what device and what network

Good info.
Also, be prepared for your battery life to decrease. These apps/services have been around for a while, and most users complaints are that the apps constantly running in the background kills their battery because it doesn't allow the phone to sleep properly.
So is this app basically like Sensorly?

Well battery is debatable given you adjust the interval.

Roam Control on MIUI?

Has anyone figured out how to make this app work on miui? I live in a area where my data speed is horrible and while I'm at home I would love some faster speeds.
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D using xda premium
I'm running the latest MIUI and I use that app everyday at work and it works perfectly...how is it not working for you?
Sent from my MIUI'd 3VO (Finally switched)
Not sure. I selected htc and rooted aosp and selected reboot and nothing. What's your settings?
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D using xda premium
I would have to reboot and then hit «roam only» twice for it to take then the roaming triangle would show in the notification bar.
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D using xda premium
Well I'm glad it's working for at least some people...that's what I'd expect. I will say that it's not a perfect science with AOSP roms...I'll continue to look into this. Thanks!
I'm using the sane settings as you...what is it doing when you select roam?

Can you check the contents of the log file in the about tab? This might explain what is happening.
I'm not calling anyone out, but be aware that pirated versions of the app will not work. It may not give you an error code, but it's not doing anything.
I just don't want the app to get a bad rep because it's "not working"

Sense Slowdown

I've had my HTC EVO LTE for two weeks now. About there our for days ago, I started to notice that sometimes sense is slow when returning to my home screen.
It doesn't happen all the time. But sometimes, when I touch the home button, I get my wall paper with a "wait" circle. It takes about 15 out 20 seconds for the screen to become active.
I'm assuming it had to do with some app out apps I've installed, but who knows?
How do I troubleshoot this?

It's likely a app this happened to me when i had chainfire installed.

It happens to me too. It's a sense thing I think. Low ram or something. I'm not too happy with my evo, considering returning it and waiting for the sgs3.

Maybe try wiping app caches as well.

Try removing some Widgets and see if it still happens. Or try a different launcher. I use nova. I don't care much for sense. No reloads on other launchers and they're more customizable.

Yeah, on my og EVO I used go launcher for the past 6 or 8 months, but I like sense. I'd like to keep it if possible.
I don't have many widgets.
Is there any log of when apps were installed? That would be helpful in trying to determine if a specific app caused this.

Can't get XDA Site to open...

On my PC. The app works fine, but for some reason, when I open website, there's nothing there.
Tried reverting to 2010 theme, and there's no compatibility setting. Using Explorer 9 on Windows. Just started yesterday.
Any help?
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Same has been happening to me the past few days. Luckily though, it will go through sooner or later. IMO, it's server-related and it's getting really high traffic.
I thought they updated there servers last year? I've experienced it also the past few days.

i have never seen it before
Does anyone know how to disable it from showing up on the Widget Locker lockscreen? I'm trying to have it so that I have to unlock the phone to see the pop up, but it's not working for me. I put com.ninja.sms in the disable popups thing but it still pops up.
Bought it. It force closes after minimal use on our device. Stock sense 4.

Very odd. I've given it a good 2 hours of total texting use since yesterday on a Sense 5 ROM with no force closing at all. Try re-installing it?

Trying out this app one thing I don't get is how do I send messages? And is there away to see all my messages using ninja app? Or is this app only a quick text reply app.
Edit: so I guess it's just a quick reply app.

Why pay for this when it does the same thing as facebook messenger . .? Or does it do anything that the chat heads doesn't do bc I can watch YouTube or be on xda and when someone txt me I can't reply quickly to that person or multiple people

This was available before chat heads was so that's part of it.
Also chat heads has seemed laggy to me when typing multiple messages where I don't have that issue with this.

Best SMS app I've tried.
I'm very picky with sms apps as I don't like the idea of sharing my my sweet nothings with someone else's server (paranoia alert!) but, this app does what I want without that fear. I like the idea of picking who it alerts to and that I can keep my chats minimised while doing other things. I use sms flash and this app works really well with it as I use that app to alert me for pin codes and everyone else (because I don't use the reply feature) and Ninja for the important peeps. Cheers Dev!

It doesn't popup on lockscreen though. I find that a must have feature that gosms has. I would also like to initiate a conversation on it and you can't.
Stay thirsty, my friends
