I saw this petition:

"In several recent HTC phones they have the ability to receive ant+ sensory inputs for athletic devices. This was publicly shown in the 2010 Tour de France when the HTC team used modified HTC Legend (Hero) to transmit in realtime their telemetry data to the internet.
For some crazy reason HTC is wanting feedback about whether they should or shouldn't enable this functionality in a firmware update for their devices.
Please sign this partition if you would like to see HTC enable ant+ on their current and future devices."
Is it possible to use Ant+ in yours HTC Mozart?
Hi+
I think this is just for HTC android devices because this post tell me that this project need a special app so maybe we see this on htc wp8 devices ! maybe!
my Bad english ? ... yeah !!

Got the following response from HTC when I emailed them about bluetoothe devices that wouldn't connect (Wiimote).
"We certainly understand wanting to make sure you make the most of the device bluetooth functions. Unfortunately, we have no information regarding possible bluetooth updates for devices at this time. Also, the Bluetooth stack is only part of the equation when checking for compatibility. The other option you will need to look into is the bluetooth profile. The reason many bluetooth keyboards actually do not work our Android phones, for example, is the fact that Google did not include the HID (Human Interface Device) profile in the programming. Which bluetooth stack you have is also more determined by the operating system then the Sense interface itself. We apologize for the inconvenience and will document your concerns. Feel free to contact us again should you have any further questions. If you feel more comfortable discussing issues by phone, you can contact Technical Support at 1-866-449-8358, 6 am to 1 am EST, 7 days a week."
Does that make sense to anyone?

Hi all.
I have problems contacting google to get some info on Google Play service and obtaining license to use on specific device with firmware entirely build by me which is based on ICS 4.0.3 sources provided to me by chipset manufacturer..
I'll c/p last mail I sent to android-partnership [at] google.com for you guys to get the point:
****
Hello,
If somebody told me that I will have to write same e-mail three times to Google withouth getting any response I would not belive him, but things happen...
Again:
I'm CEO of Croatian company. We have OEM hardware producer in China who produces for us Android ICS and GB based media players. Because theese media players are based on Amlogic chipset (AML8726-M3 platform which runs ICS and AML8726-M platform which runs GB 2.3.4) and on Amlogic ICS which is not prepared for targeted region (Central Europe), we obtained partnership with Amlogic to get access to their sources to be able to customize it and prepare it to be used in our region.
Based on that, we are building our own firmwares for these devices. According to our hardware manufacturer's firmware versions, they do have access to Google Play service. Because of different fingerprints and keys used for our firmware build, same device with our firmware is not recognized by Google Play service and actually we are not licensed to use it.
My question to you (for 3rd time) is what we have to do to get Google Play working on our firmware builds. Your FAQ seems to be confusing... By that I reffer to theese Q and A's:
What kinds of devices can be Android compatible?
The Android software can be ported to a lot of different kinds of devices, including some on which third-party apps won't run properly. The Android Compatibility Definition Document (CDD) spells out the specific device configurations that will be considered compatible.
For example, though the Android source code could be ported to run on a phone that doesn't have a camera, the CDD requires that in order to be compatible, all phones must have a camera. This allows developers to rely on a consistent set of capabilities when writing their apps.
The CDD will evolve over time to reflect market realities. For instance, the 1.6 CDD only allows cell phones, but the 2.1 CDD allows devices to omit telephony hardware, allowing for non-phone devices such as tablet-style music players to be compatible. As we make these changes, we will also augment Google Play to allow developers to retain control over where their apps are available. To continue the telephony example, an app that manages SMS text messages would not be useful on a media player, so Google Play allows the developer to restrict that app exclusively to phone devices.
If my device is compatible, does it automatically have access to Google Play and branding?
Google Play is a service operated by Google. Achieving compatibility is a prerequisite for obtaining access to the Google Play software and branding. Device manufacturers should contact Google to obtain access to Google Play.
And this one, which tells me to contact you which I am doing for 3rd time in last few days:
If I am not a manufacturer, how can I get Google Play?
Google Play is only licensed to handset manufacturers shipping devices. For questions about specific cases, contact [email protected].
Will you please be so kind and answer to my questions?
Best Regards,
Stanislav Vlasic

That was 3rd mail sent to them. I also tried to contact them to compatibility [at] android.com, but no response at all.
So, my question.... Does anybody know who to contact to get ANY kind of answer?

Can anyone share their HTC Store apk (HTC Hub)?
I want to try it on my HTC One X with Custom Jelly Bean ROM.
HTC Hub is down for some time now...
htc hub
There is no htc hub on my international version. It was removed by HTC!!!!
it is torn down for me
i don't have it aswell
HTC has been, I guess you could say, streamlining their services. HTC Hub, HTC's backup services, HTC news widget, are all no longer on new devices. Even older devices are having trouble accessing these services. The ability to download new skins and Sense themes is missing also.
Right from HTCSense.com:
HTCSense.com is undergoing a renovation to improve the services and value we deliver to customers like you. Until the new services are ready, features previously available on HTCSense.com will no longer be available. If you would like phone location or backup services for your device, please visit Google Play (formerly called Android Market) and download an application the best meets your needs.
Yeah they are removing components to save personnel costs in the software developing department. Quick Settings have been removed for that reason too already a while ago. I think we all know HTC is not doing too well these days...
Hi,
I have been looking for making my xperia Ray bootable with two operating system i.e. (Multiboot Operating System) . I have heard one project Modaco.switch of making the dual booting in the HTC One and it is working on the Samsung Galaxy S4 in near future. Can we make something like this which is compatible with the Xperia devices. Although I'm not a kernel developer however I do make android apps and I have good experience on Java Programming. I would love to hear more about this features possibility from admin and users.
Thanks
Narayan
This feature was introduced back in February and at the time a many news outlets reported on it, for example:
http://www.androidcentral.com/how-assign-contacts-relationship-voice-actions-google-now
I did not have this functionality at the time but I was hoping it's just a matter of short time to roll it out.
I'm on an HTC One M7 (4.4.3 Sense 6) using the Google Now launcher version 1.1.0.1167994.
I am based in Europe so I think this might be just another US exclusive functionality.
Is calling based on relationships from Google Now available to anyone outside of the US?
Are there any hacks to make this available?
I have found a workaround myself and it's easier than I thougth: simply add 'dad', 'mom' etc. to the nickname field in Google contacts. That's all.
