Hello Everyone,
Im using HTC Desire with AuraxTsense 8.1.1 and ive seen a few roms with the core android contacts app. I tried using mybackup pro to back this app up and install it but it says "application not installed". Do i need to download a .zip and use recovery to install this? where could i get those files from either an .apk or a .zip.
Thanks for any help guys.
i believe the contacts is two apks contacts and contactsprovider. And you cannot get them into a sense rom by merely installing it, theres some wierd issue with it if u try to replace the senseui's contacts with it...
I know what you mean with wanting this, but if you're willing, try a different rom to see what you like at the same time? Something AOSP built. If you search there are ways to adb push the stock contact app which is what you want, but that includes the dialer which you also need if you want the contacts.
If you're willing to experiment, try a different rom. I was on AuraxTSense 8.1.1 also, but the battery drain was totally annoying. So I went to Oxygen and I haven't looked back (and has the contact app which you want). Done 18 hours on my phone today with relatively standard usage and,went down to 32%, amazing tbh.

You can try to flash the "Android_Contacts.zip" file that is found on the mini-site I built for LeeDrOiD's ROMs. I have done so in the past (flashed through recovery) and both the HTC People AND stock Android Contacts seem to co-exist in perfect harmony It simply asks you which you'd like to launch when tapping the "Phone" button for example.
Of course it would be wise to perform a Nandroid backup first just for safety's sake!
Sense should allow all that harmonies in AOSP rom too. why dont they~~
Thanks for all the replys. im gona go try that website now!! ill post how i get on.
ok tried that but just got a load of force close messages before i could even start up the app. is there any .apk on the marketplace that would do this, or even a similar app. I know you can get it on sense cause i had it on one of the sense roms that i use. I just like AuraxTsense because of the power control in the notification area.
well actually i dont understand why do you want the android dialer? Sense dialer is what people want. Well at least i want it it, want it so much but sad it cant be used on AOSP roms.
Cause i love having to click a phone app and having my dialer/contacts/recent calls all in one app and just tabbed on the top. I dont care if its the android dialer but this is the best one ive seen laid out for what i want. Is it possible to get the samsung one or a similar app?
Ricochet I totally agree on that. The standard Android dialer app is way more functional and looks nicer too IMHO. Only thing missing is T9 search. I used Dialer One from the market when I wasnt rooted, however found it to be less snappy then a standard app.

I tried that and it somewhat worked. The dialer comes up but the contacts aren't there. The favorites and call logs are populated though. I'm using an HD rom though so I'm not sure it's the same (RCmixHD)
Tust found "TouchPal Smart Dialer" in the market. The main screen is a mix of HTC with Android Contacts tabs at the top. Gonna try this out to test functionality, but the layout is awesome!
Thanks man, that app is exactly what i wanted.
Hi guys, the flipout is now very cheap indeed in the UK (it's around £50 with Orange PAYG). I managed to lose my previous phone under a train and so I've been looking at this.
Is it worth picking up this phone? I gather from looking at the posts that it can be unlocked and rooted.
Some (noob) questions:
1) Can the phone be unlocked for free? Can it be done by debranding it?
2) Can you install a different launcher? A search on the forum doesn't say anything about changing the launcher.
3) Can you get rid of Motoblur? i've never used it but it sounds ****.
Thanks in advance guys
1. dont know!
2. Launcher Pro is very nice. many thinks can be changed and its very fast!
3. dont try the motoblur free versions of the flipout..there are many bugs with connection and akku standby! i have the italian rom installed with the update of 1.19.2 and i ignored motoblur. i have deleted all widget with motoblur and use the widget of the launcher pro which can also connect to facebook, twitter...and in my opinion your contacts will be clean..if you use motoblur it will add facevook contacts to your normal conntacts...
Yeah, LauncherPro and ADW work perfectly for me, just make sure to delete all of Motoblur's widgets and ****. Juicedefender Ultimate helps as well, for saving battery.
I got some issue with Launch pro.
When I press home button to return from some apps, the screen turn black and the status bar rotate to the side of the screen, and after probably 300ms, it turns back.
Not a big issue, but pretty annoy. Using ADW launcher without any issue. Much smoother than the stock launcher.
I'm back to the stock Launcher. My problem was that with any other Launcher, from time to time a process called "android.process.acore" would start eating cpu.

Could you explain a bit more? What are the problems? I have the moto free firmware installed. Problems I heard about are
1. something about not using all channels, which can be solved by modifying a file on /system/etc
2. Whenever you install a new firmware, the battery meter gets out of sync and need to be reset. There is an app on the market for doing that.
Are these the problems you are referring to, or are there others?
Thanks!
@ ghostwheel
ya, these are the problems! and you´re right..it can be fixed. i only wanted to say that you can use the original firmeware without motoblur by ignoring it. so you dont have to fix anything and you can use the 1.19.2 update. sry for my bad english =/

Hey ghostwheel
if tried the motoblur free version now.
to use alle awailable channels i have to modifi the baseband file, right!?
which app do you mean for reseting the battery?
can i have back friend stream in [17.Jul] BOYPPC-SHIFTPDA DHD_V19
how can install back?
thanks in advance
i think this is a desire hd rom which in that case you can go to personalize, widget, the top one should say "Browse all HTC widgets" scroll to 24/25 and select friend stream. im not on this rom but if its v19 then thats a desire hd rom so it should work.

friend stream widget appears but i cant config account
i cant sign in becouse there is no option in accounts and sync
i just have facebook,google,news,weather.
i missing friend stream for htc account.
i think you can sign into your htc account by going under setup or htc hub. if you want i can flash the rom real quick to see what your refering to? its rather hard to say what to do when im not seeing it infront of me.
maybe look in that thread to see if other people are having the same issue and if you dont find any info on it you could always ask your question within that thread.
are you refering to this ROM?
can you do that for me you're so kind
i have read threads
nobody wrote something like this
ok it will take me a few mins or so to do a backup & then flash. gives me an excuse to try a new ROM out anyway. i'll write back after i go through the ROM which should be about 10-15 mins or so.

yes this is the rom...
just so we're clear the link i posted earlier (post 4) is the ROM your refering to correct?
haha, opps. writing at the same time i guess
sorry my computer is really slow. it just finished downloading so im thinking 5-10 more mins maybe.

i think so u own me a drink
ok just booted up. im going to set the phone up to see if i have the problems you were talking about. i'll report back..
ok..so i can't find it either. on my old ROM..RAFDROID HD when you set up your phone up it allowed you to set up your htc account and it didnt on this ROM. also i selected widgets then all browse all HTC widgets and there are a lot less widgets to choose from. in the ROM details for BOYPPC-SHIFTPDA_Desire HD A2SD V19 it shows friend stream as an app in the ROM so i would post the question because they might haved removed it for some reason. i couldnt find any info about it either so im not sure what advice i can give.
i have the friend stream apk but im not sure it would work anyway and without being able to sign in its really pointless in trying that way. a friend stream widget did no show up for me anyway i tried about it.
im going to keep playing around with the rom to see if i can get it to work though. i'll pm you if i can find out the answer.

thanks any way for your help
no problem. it got me to try a new ROM out anyway. maybe after some sleep i'll try to install the friendstream.apk to see if it works that way.
Did not read the whole thread...but it might be easy.
You may need to goto settings, accounts and sync, and then set up Facebook and Twitter for HTC...to sync.
thats what i thought at 1st but when you go into accounts & sync there was nothing there that you could set up, just blank. yea it was really odd though. i even went into personalize, widgets & then browse all htc widgets and there were a lot less on that ROM then on RAFDROID HD. i think this ROM had 35 or so were as RAFDROID HD has 70. i checked the thread late last night and it seems other people are having problems with it to on different builds so i dunno.
I guess I have to return to the previous version becouse i like facebook for htc sense widget
if you go to this thread and check out post 2351 someone uploaded htc-facebook. you woulod have to put it in system/apps & i cant say for sure if it would work or not.
new updated
boyppc has updated version 19 he added a some dhd stock widget and apps
i will try now
I have never seen this before, and I am hoping someone knows what to do.
After installing Hyperdrive 17.1 when i receive a phone call it will display +1(and the number) even if I have the person as a contact, then if i want to call back i have to remove the + sign before trying otherwise it simply won't do anything. I am not saying this is an issue with the rom (and I really doubt it) maybe something i am missing.. Any idea?
After doing some more research this seems to be related to the Global ready settings, but I can't find how to disable this.

I get a 1 before it too but no +1 and the call back function works fine ... Im on RLS17.1 also ... My phone is unlocked and I am using tmobile but I was using att just a few days ago and it wasn't a problem .. must be something you need to change in your network setting (Possibly)

That sucks ... I would put a post in the Hd thread with this issue .. sbreen is good about answering and fixing .. Im a safestrap user and there is really no other rom that I want to use ... Although they are all good HD has more functions without the need to install xposed framework .. Also the 4way multiwindow is the sh!t... Hats off to all the developers
Several of us with hyperdrive are seeing this. See recent posts in the hyperdrive att rom thread. I started a general q&a thread about it in hopes of finding solution, figuring it is a setting not just specific to that ROM. I hope a solution is found because I like that ROM.

If Viper is activated, you will see the notification by default unless you disabled it. It really depends on the version of Viper and which Rom you are using. Basically, In Viper go to settings and check "Show Notification" > On
In the OS system menu go to search, type notifications.

When you have issues,and need some help it's usually a good idea to provide more information such as your phone model, which Rom are you using, what mods are installed etc. For example, the instructions for the stock rom is quite different than a custom Rom.
Also, if you are using a custom Rom, it is better to ask the question within that Roms forum. As you can see by the number of days that have passed since you first asked the question, you will not get alot of help by making a post with little to no information. There is just a few people who regularly check these Questions.
If you are using custom rom, and everything is activated. Then you very likely have installed some type of utility/cleaning/battery saving tool that is blocking the notification.
If you are using EUI, then the program called: Phone manager is the app that is blocking the notification.

Its absolutely the built-in phone manager. I cant provide the link at the moment, because I am busy. But, if you Google search " resolving LeEco EUI notification issues"
You should quickly be able to find the step by step resolution. A lot of people experienced that same issue with various programs.
If you can't find it, I can post the link later tonight.
