Hi,
I want to try CM9 on my phone. But I got used to the Sense email and phone applications (I've never used any email application as good as HTC's).
So, I wonder whether it's possible to extract and run those two applications on non-sense ROM?

Anything sense related will need sense framework to work. So unfortunately no. What is it that you like about the apps specifically?

For phone application, it supports T9 dialing, and is fast. I tried many other T9 dialers, and can say that all of those are so laggy.
For email application: I need support to connect to Exchange server, strong contact integration, server search. I tried ICS email, Touchdown, both are not as good as HTC's email. K9 mail is another story. It is famous, but it doesn't support Exchange connection.

I recently switched to CyanogenMod 7 R1. I had done a Titanium Backup of my apps before I switched, but didn't realise that it wouldn't back up stock apps. I really love the stock e-mail app which came with the phone, it handles g-mail better than the g-mail app or the Cyanogen e-mail app IMO. Is there a way for me to get the app on Cyanogen or no?
Thanks!

Last I heard its part of the Sense UI. You couldnt use it without having Sense installed and in that case you might as well run one of the Iced Glacier ROMs.
I thought the app was there, its just the widget that's gone.
I never used the widget, just the app. Any hope for this?

I was using K-9 as my e-mail app until yesterday I realized I could just forward all of my e-mail accounts to gmail. k-9 is an excellent program, but it wasn't useful any longer after I realized I could do this. Plus, gmail's interface is much smoother and easier to use.
But Sense did have a great email app, but since going to CM, I had no choice but to try alternatives. Gmail, however, is great so far.
What I like about k9 is that it handles attachments better.

Google search and found a few threads with similar issue, but didn't find an answer. I cannot receive any yahoo emails from the stock mail app. I can send them though. I have deleted the account and re added it. Nothin. I don't know what else to do. Any help?

I am currently using the android yahoo app. It is the only solution at present for me. There is a thread on this.

K9 Mail works equally well. I've been using it long enough that it's one of the first things installed.

Which one do you guys prefer? I am curious to hear everyone's input.
I prefer chrome beta. Nice to have my bookmarks synced to my phone. Is also pretty quick and I like tab management.

Is chrome any slower than stock?
Also how do you set chrome as default for Search , links, etc? I've tried clearing defaults for the stock internet app, but it doesn't work.

I use Chrome on my 3D and love it. I do however still keep the stock browser for flash links.
Also can anyone confirm if there are any graphical issues with Chrome on the LTE? I had them with my 3D but it could be because the ICS was a leaked ROM.

I haven't had any graphical issue. I just can't seem to figure out how to change the default browser. No matter how many different browser I install, my links and search default to the HTC stock. Just did a factory reset and it didn't seem to help.

If you want to set it as the default you have to go to the new menu. This is the whole reason the phones were delayed. Check this link for pictures and instructions. http://www.pocketables.com/2012/05/how-htc-has-side-stepped-apples-patent-in-the-htc-evo-4g-lte.html

Go to Settings>App Associations>Web URLs Then just pick chrome from the list.

I appreciate the help. Anyway to change the default for google search as well?

I like chrome but the only problem I've had is downloads not showing up in the notification bar until they are completed. I don't get to see any progress. I also can't get the Send Feedback option in settings to work. I tap it and it does nothing.
How do you guys set YouTube as default instead of browser?

I like chrome better than the stock browser, but I like the Firefox Beta even more. Check it out: its extremely quick and full featured. It struggles with flash (but really, you won't use that often anyways), as it's still beta, but every thing else works great.
what am I missing about people liking chrome for Google bookmark syncing? I mean, the stock/HTC browser has all my Google bookmarks synced.

Chrome also syncs open tabs between all your devices and can open more than 6 tabs which is all the stock HTC one can open.

For some reason, my sync shows that Internet sync is broken. I think it is related to the fact that I use Google Authenticator. Plus Chrome just seems to work a little nicer in regards to basic operation.

Several people have had issues getting Hotmail to sync correctly when set up as an alexchange account. Personally I have tried it using the Activesync option and setting everything manually as well as choosing the option specifically for Hotmail which has default settings built in with no luck on either.
This seems to be happening with some of the newer custom ROMs for others as well. I can get it to work on stock and Fresh 5.1.1 with no problems. I've tested it with MeanROM and ClassicJewel and can't get it to work.
Is it possible that a memory tweak or removed apk is preventing it from working correctly?
Edit: Hotmail is also apparently working okay on Charmeleon and Flex360 without issue.

I'm on Viper and I ended up dumping the built in email client for Hotmail and installed the Hotmail app in the Play Store. Haven't had any issues with receiving email with the Hotmail app.
I am stock and hotmail is being flaky, with both the hotmail option and the active sync option

I thought I was the only one with this issue. I don't have a custom ROM but I am rooted. My hotmail has only synced twice in the past 5 days.

I would say maybe it is a Hotmail server issue but it works okay on some ROMs and with a 3rd party email app (Enhanced Email)

I just switched from sense to AOSP and I love everything except the facebook syncing. I miss how on sense it just did it.
Now there is no way to get my facebook friends' phone numbers. What can I do?
Thanks!
This may help idk. I don't use Facebook but I stumbled across this thread.
