Hi,
I've been trying to get the MyPhone premium features trial (locate lost phone/remote ring etc.) to work on the HD2 and to set this up the service needs to send 12 silent messages to the phone. This worked on my old Polaris just fine but on the HD2 it fails to recieve these 12 messages and therfeore the service cant be used.
Does anyone else have this problem???
Thanks
Just gave it a go - same problem - FYI I'm on Vodafone..
Have you guy's updated your ROM to the newest version? Maybe HTC has fixed it... I don't know, but it's worth a try.
I've not flashed yet, due to the O2 branded ROM, might try the goldcard method on the weekend.
Anyone with the newer ROM care to try the free premium features trial and report back
Thanks

Hd2 my phone premium features dont work
I have a HD2 which i bought sim free which Im using on the Orange UK 3G network.
I've also noticed that the premium features on ms_myphone dont work with the HD2.
Along with everyone else, I get the message that the phone cannot be contacted.
As soon as the ROM is officially announced on the website of HTC: Report this issue. Maybe they fix it soon then...

TBH don't see the point in waiting until ROM is officially announced, after all it doesn't work in the current ROM neither! So reporting it as "not working" now just means they can't come back with a "this feature is supported in a forthcoming ROM" (or if they do then we'll know they are talking about something coming later in the pipeline than 1.48!).
I think the more people that report it the better; especially as the whole MS MyPhone feature doesn't seem to have had all that much marketing (at least the here in the UK) therefore the might not immediately be that many people complaining about it.
Just my opinion
Don't know if it's relevant, but having run MyPnone on the original ROM I was (as is standard) asked to download an update to the application. I did this and all was well until today when I was asked to download another update, which I have also done.
Why not see if there is any way to force this update - it may be a bugfix?

No, still doesn't work with my SIM free HD2 on Orange UK- "The ring/ lock request couldn't be sent due to a problem with our service"

Semi-relevent but sadly not a fix..
The 'updated' version of the MyPhone app contains the code for the 'Premium' service to work, however these in turn have to then be supported by the phone itself. FYI. Turns out what it does is constantly monitor your incoming txt messages for and intercepts specially formatted ones from the MS server instructing it to do something (ie. for the MyPhone app to launch and connect back to base, turn ringer to full and ring, acquire GPS fix, etc etc). I'd hazard a guess it is the HTC Sence txt messaging service which is preventing this service from working - after all it is known already not to play nice with the txt message notification queue and instead hog it to itself.
So in summary: without the update you'd have no chance of the location element of the Premium Services working, with it you still need support from your handset and it would seem up to ROM 1.48 at least we have sadly confirmed not to have this with the HD2 at this stage. A fix needs to come from either HTC or Microsoft (further updated to MyPhone app), or quite possibly both.
There's a relevant thread over at the MyPhone forum that I tried to add to http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/MyPhone/thread/57659d5c-2077-4387-9bda-92643e17cab7
not had a reply yet, maybe we need a new thread over there?
i think it must be the HTC messaging app ... has anyone install back the old windows message app, and try the myphone Premium features again?
Im going to bump this thread now that custom ROMS are out there and ask
Is anyone with the htc messaging removed able to set up the premium features of MyPhone?
How do you disable HTC messaging....?
Can you fully disable senseUI ?
On a stock rom....
Serriously, your telling me that no one cares about locating their lost phone, remote wiping etc!
but threads like oh god I bought the wrong phone get a responce
Any luck with a 1.66 ROM?

If you are looking for find my phone style software, forget the myphone premium, go look at Remotetracker. Free, and superb. Stuffed with tons of features. TXT your phone, it will call you back with the microphone open, another command will text you gps coordinates and a link to the position on google maps, another commands will start the gps, make a 5 minute track log and then text it to you in google earth compatible format,, send popup messages to teh phone, get it to send you all your contacts, get it to wipe the SD card, the list is endless.
http://remotetracker.sourceforge.net/
remotetracker is good but I would prefer to be able to use a website to contact my phone rather than having to send a text to it. also being able to ring the phone etc and view it on a map
Hi all
I am having problems with logging in to youtube through HTC sense on the HD2. I can log in to Facebook and twitter just fine, but whenever I try to log in to youtube, nothing happens - the icon does not turn green, but stays greyed out. I have tried on 2 different HD2s, using two different youtube accounts, and have even tried following a hard reset with the same results. I have tried to log in using the data services in the settings, and also using the account manager in the connections settings. I would like to be able to upload my videos to youtube from the HTC album, but of course I can't do this until I am logged in.
Is anyone having similar issues? I am using the 1.43 ROM on O2 in the UK. I don't really want to upgrade until the official ROM is released.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Just had the issue with my German Tmobile ROM.
Youtube was disabled...or no idea what Tmobile did to the ROM.
Now with the clean 1.48 everything works fine.
regards
brook
I'm on t-mobile on the uk and YouTube does not seem to work over 3G or HSDPA. works ok over wifi, now running 1.48 WWE ROM.
Sent from HD2 keyboard
One thing I will ask, is there any way when using the Youtube application, that when you do a search, the search results are similar to that of the actual Youtube website.
I often do a search in the app and will get no results, or very different results and on the website will gain the proper results.
Any suggestions?

Youtube login fix
Ive noticed something odd about the logins in Sense UI for youtube (and probably Facebook etc), if you have a non-alphanumeric password (a password with say [email protected] etc ) you won't be able to login. Just change your password with google/youtube and you can login. I assume the same goes for twitter and facebook.
Thanks for all the responses. Looks like my best bet is to wait for O2 to bring us the official 1.48 (or 1.49) upgrade, or to try the goldcard method. Just to respond to some of the suggestions, I have tried both over wifi and 3g with the same result, and I already have an alphanumeric password. Anyone else having this issue?
yep I have an official o2 ROM and I can't log into YouTube.
Looking suspiciously like an issue with the O2 rom. Have asked over at the O2 forums if anyone else is experiencing this. Will keep you updated.
Im on o2 and I dont have a problem, works fine for me.
Im also still on .143 rom.

Another troll post by you... reported!
On topic: If your device didn't come with the youtube application, you might want to try this alternative: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=508984
For all Coreplayer users: Coreplayer also has Youtube integrated.
By the way:
I have written ALL of my recent posts on the HTC HD2. Typing on a mobile phone has never been so easy.
I made a thread concerning the youtube app and the camcorder. My T-mobile device didn't come with the youtube app so I decided to install it but it seemed to mess up my camcorder. I wasn't able to play the videos back.
Has anybody had this problem?
yep i`m on tmobile and i have the same problem, desperate for a fix!!!!! i have the original youtube app off the topaz/hd but my videos wont play when this is installed, uninstall it an my videos play fine. i wish i had the knowledge or understanding to make this work, unfortunatly i dont LOL!!
someone on this forum must know how to fix this, surely!
OK, I'm making progress. I created a new youtube account, which I can now log in to properly from the phone. My original youtube account still isn't working, though. From feedback I have had elsewhere, I'm wondering whether this has anything to do with the fact that this is linked to my google account. For those still having this issue, I would suggest trying to create a new account on the youtube website and trying to log in to that. Also, I noticed that I have to log in using my user name only, not with the email address, as this doesn't work. Hope this helps someone.
same problem
mine was working fine until today when I goldcarded it to the official htc 1.48.405.2 rom. now it doesn't work.
anyone figured this issue out yet?
I'm signed in fine, can view "my profile" and post a "new tweet" but when I try to "update now" it displays the message...

The account was forbidden to access the twitter service.

I've tried signing out and in again on the HD2 and checked on twitter.com itself to confirm that "HTC Peep" is approved on the "connections" tab.
Any ideas please?
I have an o2 HD2, rom version 1.43.206.4
do you find the answer?
account was forbidden to access the twitter service
I'm also getting the same error.
I can update post and profile but can't do "update now".
Any help is appreciated.
Mine is HD2 ROM v 1.66.707.1 WWE
Kwanice, apologies for the delayed response, have been away from keyboard.
My issue was due to using a (standard UK keyboard) character in my Twitter password that was accepted via Twitter and web browsers but I can only presume not recognised by HD2/Peep.

Twitter has stopped using regular http auth and now uses oauth which Peep (htc twitter app) does not support. So... until whoever makes Peep updates it with support for oauth, you need another twitter app... Simple fact.
Is any Twitter app working? I tried moTweets and PockeTwit and doesnt work...
Peep is outdated and useless, HTC failed to update it.
Is anyone else having problems with the phone in general that started today out of no where? I am, my device is bugging out like it hasnt in months and it has all conincided with the HTC Peep failure, its somehow messing up sense to me and that is creating issues as I navigate all apps in Sense.
My phone wont even boot up now, black screen, think I will have to hard reset. I hate this phone and HTC its a comedy of errors.
If I allow the screen to go black, it wont wake up from sleep now. Great.
I am also having the same issue. I'm with T-Mobile and I've been seeing this error all day today
same here, started today
i dont have any other problems

Go to settings/personalize/Home screen tabs and disable the htc peep tab. If you have it set for auto updates it is going to lock up sense anytime it tries.

Got the same here (the netherlands) Did nothing out of the ordinary, just pressed "update now" or whatever it is called in English ("nu bijwerken" in dutch). Doesn't it just go away if i wait a bit?
well for my case: I updated my Tilt 2 with the official ROM update released by HTC a day or two back. Sens UI 2.5 obviously. Worked great, tho a bit sluggy. a couple tweaks fixed that. Peep actually worked till just after midnight (think 1, 2 am; from like 8 or 9 pm when i did the ROM Flash) i started it was having less and less sucess updating to the point that i couldn't download (error messages showing) updated once more by miracle and early afternoon (something like 1 pm today) started showing me that precise message:
Download Error
The account was forbidden to access the twitter service.
Hope HTC or Twitter gets on this because PockeTwit has been giving me problems too lately: communication error and now tells me of incorrect credentials or Network unavailable.

Wow, crazy you mentioned this. Starting late last week, Sense UI started goofing up and freezing on me shortly after turning the phone on, even after rebooting. It was driving me nuts the entire day.
I ended signing out of Twitter and concluded the issue was with twitter. I then ended up deleting the "db" and "cache" folders in the My Device > Temp > TwitEng directory.
I was fine the past few days up until today when I started getting the error in this thread. I again had to delete the "db" and "cache" folders as my Sense UI started goofing up again.
I see that Twitter is now using Oauth instead of http which explains the error. I kinda like Peep so hopefully HTC updates...
For now, I'm using Azurea as my Twitter client which seems to be working okay.
Twitter Client Alternative
Well, so far it is evident that the current Peep is no longer useful... We'll have to wait till HTC releases a patch for it.
Till then any other suggestions for twitter clients that work with the Oauths..
MoTweet worked..but TouchTwit fails..
on my samsgung galaxy S everything it´s working fine, but not on my HD2
On my HTC HD2: Peep not working as mentioned. Is there any indication of HTC updating Peep? Or should we switch to an other twitter app entirely? Too bad though, the Twitter home tab looked awesome.
Hello folks-
I flashed the new update and things have been nice and steady. The only problem I've had is I cannot access the My account or Tmobile applications. I have shortcuts to them and when I click on them I go to a page with an anime guy holding a phone and a message in the center of the screen says "The My Account application will be downloaded shortly". The only button I can hit then is an exit button. I leave the phone active for minutes and have wifi on, as well as data connection. Nothing else happens. It seems like this is odd behavior and wondering if anyone would mind making a .cab.
Thanks for any responses!
EDIT!! I used Doc's MMs fix-which I believe tells Tmobile that my phone is not a HD2 (used for tiny mms messages problem) and I then tried the original My account and tmobile help applications and both work perfectly. How about that?
Anyone willing/able to try this?
I've had the upgrade for almost a week now and I still cannot access the problem. It says it will be downloaded shortly, and never is. I called 611 and customer service has no clue. As a side question, I believe I installed the upgrade fine, but perhaps I somehow messed it up? I made a connection to activesync, removed sd card, did update, but once it was all done and was rebooting, i disconnected the usb cord to the computer. Could this have possibly screwed up the My account application? Everything else works fine.
There's been other reports of the same issue, people on the new ROM having trouble getting the myaccount app to do it's update so you can use it. I haven't seen any solutions yet, but it's in a thread in this section somewhere.
I don't believe you screwed up your new ROM at all...if it's fuctioning in every other way than this, there's no other issue than the unexplained one that you and others are experiencing.

Thanks, I've figured as much. I've also seen a handful of people having the same problem (on other forums as well) but often this resolves itself on its own. Keeping my fingers crossed-it's more annoying than anything else.
Im good!
Myaccount works fine on mine, and it never downloaded anything. I just open the app and it works just fine, maybe the app is whats wrong not the whole update. i dont know how to make a .cab or i would do it for ya. any suggestions on how to do it?

You used the one from 2.10 on the new 2.13 ROM? I just wasn't sure there wouldn't be any issues there
Went to the store today and changed out Sim cards just to try it. Same problem. The rep at the store said that a lot of people were having trouble with the application-even people with blackberries who just got the application for their platform. Who knows? I may try the cab just to give it a whirl. If I try it and subsequently uninstall it, I imagine it'll revert to my .13 application which is hard cooked into the rom right?
*update*
I tried the .10 cab and it worked fine. The icon was slightly different, but otherwise worked fine. Tmobile help (purple question mark icon) still wouldn't work, but the my account does. Thanks

I never tried to use that app before, so I went ahead and gave it a try. I got an error right away. I just did a soft reset and then it worked. YMMV.
Still require TMOUS 2.13.531.1 "My Account" CAB
I've just installed the T-mobile "My Account" Application from the previous thread (Leo_MyAccount.cab - MyAccount 2_9_2_5_87341_0 according to the CAB xml) on FroyoStone sense V2, and I get the guy holding the phone and the message "The My Account application will be downloaded shortly" message for both Help and My Account apps. It worked fine on the stock TMOUS ROM 2.13.531.1.
I assume this CAB is a backrevved version? What is the fix for this, or does someone have the real CAB from the 2.13.531.1 ROM?
Hey guys, I've recently updated to the leaked Froyo update and occured some problems. My phone worked fine the first couple days, but now for the last two my facebook app doesn't work. Ive tried whiping, reinstalling the update, clearing cache for the app, and re logging back into it. The error message I keep getting is:
"An error has occuried while fetching data. [null]"
I've never seen this kind of error before, and can't figure out how to fix it. Any ideas or suggestions? I had CM5.0.6 on before this if that info helps. If you need anything else from lemme know, caz I'm out of ideas
Same problem here. Noticed it today. Even at home with wifi connected, I get that same message on Facebook. Anyone have an idea why. Facebood worked for a couple of days after updating to froyo, then now nothng
i have stock nexus one. started happening to me yesterday

btw - tested facebook app on my xperia x10a. gets the SAME error. facebook app problem, probably.
It's definitely a problem with Facebook itself. Most likely due to the changes in privacy settings (again).
ya, wifes cliq has the same issue all day
Yea doesn't work on mine either as of later night...same. " null" error. Strangely, I loaded 'Blue' and it works fine

Wife says her iPhone won't even work, so Facebook screwed something in the API.. Probably making changes so random people have even more access to your information.
Not androids fault. Blame it on facebook. Its on their end.

lol couldnt have been said better ..i started having this too. it just started today..i can get notifications to load correctly and comment and what not,but when i go to neww posts people have put or try to write something on my wall then i get that notification..
Facebook just changed the users privacy settings once again, so that's why.
It's working again today.
Hopefully, with the Android Facebook SDK released yesterday, it won't be too long before we get a really good facebook app like the one on the iPhone (as opposed to the crap we have now).

Ever seen the Windows Mobile Facebook? The current Android one is awesome compared to it.. Never looked at it on the iPhone.
And gee, I was right.. They were adding more "Privacy" settings. Funny how they use the word "Privacy".
Not sure if any of you saw this or not but I trust in Eric Tseng. He's been at Facebook about two weeks and he's already getting stuff done. http://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/385
Btw the error fetching data happens to me too. It happens all the time and they have to end up updating again. Have faith in Tseng!! He just needs more time.
I had that error too, it went away early this morning...
also, I cannot wait to see what the next facebook app has in store with the SDK being released...does this mean our facebook client will equal or even surpase the iPhone one?
even on a stock rom, i still have issues with fb
Facebook app seems to work just fine here (N1 running Froyo). I've tested using both both 3G and WiFi.
