Hi, i have an HTC One X plus and i was wondering if there was supposed to be any Facebook for HTC Sense interface for my phone. i don't see the option anymore to upoload my photos using it. i am assuming it is no longer supported by HTC and if so is there any way that i may be able to install it back to my phone (from any previous backups i had on previous phones, for example my HTC Sensation 4G) to my HOX+? would there be any stumbling blocks that i need to look out for or is it a simple "install" and "continue as usual" situation. thank you
I have the call it "regular" Facebook app and the option is still there.
Open your Facebook -> Click on the 3 lines on top left side -> select Account -> select App Settings -> Sync Photos
See screenshots.
Hoping this is what you were looking for.
Thanks, but that's not what I meant. I was hoping to use the former "Facebook for HTC Sense" app in order to upload my "select" photos rather than have "all" my photos automatically uploaded. I found the Facebook for HTC Sense interface to be amazing, I had never before used the official app itself to upload pics since I found it to be slower in it's handling and also having to be tedious in uploading pics one by one.

HTC removed it.
Try Speedy Uploader, it works quite well imo.

It's such a pity they removed it, because the quality of the regular Facebook upload is pretty low. Facebook for HTC Sense uploaded almost full (if not full) quality photos.

SEE POST 4 FOR MY SMALL RESERARCH AND PROBLEMS SOLVED.
I've been trying to find out where this is located on this phone. When I used sense 4 Rom on my rezound it was right there in the accounts and sync. I know it was supposed to be included with sense 4 and all the reviews I see show it on there. Did we get hosed or am I missing something?

I have never seen these included in a stock rom. They are both downloadable from the market though.
While it's not in my list of apps, if you go to the list of apps under Settings -> Apps, there is a listing for 'Dropbox for HTC Sense' and 'HtcDropbox_GLRPlugin'. Can't figure out how to access it. More than likely, it adds on to the Dropbox experience when you download the Dropbox app. I haven't tried it since I don't use Dropbox or any other cloud service.
I haven't downloaded dropbox yet so I will try that.

That is HTC's sense page. I guess only the One X got it....of course. The rezound ICS I believe was part One X so maybe that explains it. Seems a few of the reviews I've seen for this phone showed it as an option, but maybe they just assumed since it was shown as a part of sense. That was an exciting aspect for me because I use it a lot, but it isn't crucial.
As far as using a 3rd party app. I have some photos on there that I would rather not risk a sneaky developer getting his hands on ;c)
EDIT: At the very bottom it says check with provider so see if they offer skydrive on your device. I'm sure that Verizon had their grubby hands in it.
2ND EDIT: Okay, I downloaded dropbox and now it syncs in my albums and shows under accounts and sync. Now if I could only get skydrive working.
FINAL EDIT: I've had no luck on the skydrive integration. It was very nice to have but it also seems that it was removed from the at&t version One X. On a better note I have descovered that ES File Explorer syncs very nice with skydrive and other cloud services.

Thanks for the tip on ES with Skydrive! Been using that ridiculous browser MS recommends. This is soooo much better!

I tried the browser app once before but hated it. I stumbled across the ES thing in another forum.

Does anyone know how to stop the galley from showing Facebook photos without removing Facebook? So far that's the only thing I hate about this phone.

I don't have the HTC One in my hands yet but I am running Sense 5 on my HTC Evo Lte. Open up your gallery and click on the settings button, under the online services you should be able to unselect Facebook so that you don't have a million pictures in your gallery. Hope this helps.
There is currently no way to not have all those annoying FB updates in your gallery on the One. I posted on HTC's FB page about this issue, their response was to press My Gallery. This is the most frustrating thing about this phone. I didn't buy the HTC First because of the FB integration. Essentially this phone has the same downside.

Yeah, it annoys the hell out of me. :banghead:

So apparently the photo gallery will only show pictures you take with you camera. So where are the other photos like screen shots and saved imaged from texts and the internet. I cannot locate them. Is there a 3rd party photo gallery app we can download to view these photos?
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
Press the "My Photos" slide in the main gallery. It will take you to album view where you can see screenshots and downloads.
Sorry to hijack is there any way to get rid of the Facebook photos inside the gallery I hate that thanks for the answer if there is one?!

I've read this is a bug that HTC is aware of but have also read that HTC support told a user this is normal operation. If you are rooted you can freeze "Facebook for HTC Sense" which stops the photos from populating your gallery but still leaves a blank "Friends" panel...which I think is better than nothing.

Good to know. I'm having connectivity issues as wellso I may swap to an s4 if it doesnt get better soon.

I was wondering why the pictures of my contacts look like dots. It's like the image is broken up into dots, anyone else experience this?
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
That's just how they are if you don't have the contact linked to a social networking profile or choose your own picture from the gallery.

No idea why it shows up like that for some of my contacts. I use haxsync.

That is when the sync picture resolution is not big enough to prevent the picture blurr. That is why I think they use dots to display it.
hey bro i had the same problem... if u transferred the contact from a different phone by HTC transfer tool, this what u will get............
best solution is change your contact to gmail account (no more on phone) and change the contact pictures that u want with pictures from gallery for one time (i know its sucks).... also if u have some of ur contact linked to facebook, that should update ur friend pictures without dots
Actually, there are issues with gmail as well. Check out this long thread over at Adroidcentral about the issue:
http://forums.androidcentral.com/htc-one/270273-contact-picture-issue.html
I setup all my contacts on gmail.com and uploaded hi res images (some 3000x3000!) and they still show up dots. I'm just living with it right now until I get the urge to move all my contact photos locally to the phone.

here's what I did
open the contact touch the picture it gets larger with a setting in the bottom right corner. Choose that and then from the choices choose phone and the picture cleared right up. Did not work with every picture so I deleted those and got new one's from gallery / facebook or where ever.
Hello
I've been using the One X+ for a couple of months now and I've noticed something. Before the One X+ I had used a Desire Z with many custom ROMS, the last of which was a Sense 4.0A ROM.
Regardless of the ROM, when I wanted to upload a photo to Facebook, I had the option "Facebook for HTC Sense", which the One X+ sadly does not have. I've come to notice that the quality of the uploaded photos with the "Facebook" option is very low. The "Facebook for HTC Sense" option uploaded photos at a very good quality.
Can we bring this back? If not, what are the alternatives to upload high-quality photos to Facebook from the phone?
Thanks.
I even uploaded 2 photos to Facebook, using my HTC Flyer, which has the "Facebook for HTC Sense" option. The difference between "methods" si MASSIVE.
You can see the photos HERE.
Yeah its probably a feature removed from sense 4 official as facebook is preinstalled now.
Could try to find the .apk file from the old one x roms or One perhaps or your old mobile roms, then place it in the system/app folder.
Might work if the sense base is at least 4.1 from other mobiles.
