New Widgets From HTC - Desire HD General

Just had a notification that new widgets are available, battery, call mom, coin flip, fake call, notes, quick record, sand timer, tasks, tip calculator, today in history and daily challenge.
A system update would also be nice the same time.
Anyone else have it?

They all been availible for over a week

Well ever since I bought my DHD I never received a single update so, no and it sucks

Same here no updates at all and htcsense.com flaky at the best of times

When I open HTC Hub it always says: couldn't connect to server.

Me too mate

Battery widget awesome but the HTC hub server ... (sigh)

I can't download Fake Call sadly. Managed to grab the rest though

Could someone post pictures of the new widgets please?

Anyone got an .apk for Fake Call? Would be really useful, as the download isn't working

Try installing it via HTC Likes - it worked for me there, but not from HTC Hub. Failing that, i'd upload the apk if someone knows where it downloads them to.

Worked for me too. Thanks mate

Whats the sense of releasing new widgets if they are screwed up :/ Notes and Tasks are messed :/

htc sence server wont work for me every time :\

fake call apk please

Microsft Myphone Sync

Hi All,
I am going to be getting my new HD2 tomorrow (CANT WAIT) at the moment I have a TP2 and need something faster thing drives me mad sometimes.. Anyway back to the point I am going to be using Microsoft Myphone to sync everything up and then back down to my HD2 and basically wanted to know if this will work well, any problems experienced from other users etc.
Thanks in advance,
Charles Hurst.
I moved from a diamond to an hd2. the process was slow because I moved all my photos that way - but all my contacts, messages etc got moved. Apps and settings won't go though.

Yes mate - I literally could not recommend it more!
I went from a Touch HD to the HD2 and I'd already been using MyPhone as an automated backup service for a couple of months, so I was confident it would work.
It's also handy for when I flash new ROMs onto the phone. I have it backup everything except the storage card, and it works a treat.
I assume you'll still have the TP2 in case you do anything wrong, so you won't actually lose anything. It's real easy anyway, so I doubt that.
As mentioned above though, it obviously doesn't do apps. Also, if you can, connect to Wifi before doing it, as it can take a while 1st time.
Other than that, welcome to the fun that is HD2
Yes, I second the "use wifi". You may also find it time out now and again, I did. But it picks up where it left off.
If you're near a PC though I recommend that for pictures and such like, and using MyPhone for contacts, messages, notes blah de blah
Great
Great many thanks guys, only worry I have is that it does not put my text back correctly with each contact as I had this before with SBS backup (I think its called) all the text were just everywhere. Guess I will wait and see, cant wait to show off my HD2 to mates who have Iphones LOL
Thanks again,
Charles Hurst.
I showed my HD2 to a mate who has an iPhone, and his exact words were:
"Jesus, I thought MY phone was big!"
It's a lovely weighty size
Anyway, MyPhone shouldn't garble your contacts at all - same format in both phones!
Just syncing as we speak *fingers crossed* looks good so far though, the phone seems amazing and so fast its f**king incredible compared to using the TP2...
One thing thats odd it never come with facebook app on Vodafone but cant be hard to find.
Thanks again for your help.

Depending on what you want to do with facebook, you may not need it. Using the default integration with Sense, you can link your contacts to facebook so you can see their status updates (you have to actually go to the page where these are shown though - there's no notifications), set your own status, upload photos, browse friends' albums.
If you want more, there's always the facebook app, and http://m.facebook.com which is a nice lite version of the site.

HTC Peep problem

HTC Peep downloads all tweets, regardless of whether I config it to only download the last 50 tweets in the options menu. Is there any fix for this? It is kind of annoying as it slows down my device significantly when updating...
Yes mine does this too. its a pain in the arse, does anyone know of a way to manually delete the old tweets?
or is there away to get rid of the built in Twitter app and get the sense tab to link to a better one?
Yes this a very annoying problem with no solution so far Peep is basically useless due to this problem!
Id created a thread for this earlier too : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=618774
That sucks... I guess we'll just have to send HTC an email and hope they will fix it soon.

Haha they sacrificed friend requests in lieu of the chat. I might go back, unless someone knows how to view friend requests

If I go into Manage Applications I have two facebook apps listed, Facebook version 1.3.2 and Facebook for HTC Sence version 1. Neither will allow me to uninstall?
It's a bug?
In fc chat, if we select go offline, my friends in their fc PC, see me like being online, it's annoying because some times I want not being seeing online.
I think is a bug app.
Can someone confirm this.

Hmm, that is interesting. I am guessing it is the rom you have since I am using Hyperdroid and am able to uninstall the old one to put the new one.

Same. Trying to add Facebook for HTC Sense fails too. "The service is currently unavailable."
Anyone figure out how to fix this?
Sent from my EVO Shift using XDA App
They are no longer showing in the market so I'm guessing it has something to do with that.
Just a thought, but I''m thinking that HTC pulled all of their widgets from the Android Market and is moving them to the HTC hub.
It will be interesting to see once we can get some ported ROM's from the Desire Z if that is the case.
It's working on my wife's EVO not sure why it wouldn't work just on the EVO shift.
I don't think HTC ever had their widgets in the Android Market. I have the original Evo also and I remember a while back some of the Evo users ran into the same issue and it was a problem on htc end in which they had to send out a update that fixed the issue.
I assume everyone is unable to download widgets under the "get more widgets" area of the phone. If so, I'm 100% positive that this has noting to do with the market whatsoever. Me personally, I'm not having any problems with facebook sync or whatever. Although, just like other evo shift owners, I'm unable to download the other htc widgets such as profiles, tip calculator etc.
I'm just gonna sit back and grab some 3rd party apps from the market that does the same thing.
This was sent shifting on my EVO Shift 4G using Tapatalk
I know on my Hero I downloaded the battery widget and Today in History directly from the market.
HTC had several widgets for download via the market.
Actually, I remember the Hero having this issue as well. It was eventually fixed, but by then I was on custom ROMs.
Yup, couldn't access it last night.
Just got my shift today and I also have no access to "more widgets"
Just got mine as well. I really wanted the battery widget... and tasks
My evo is charging now so I can't do it. Maybe someone with an evo can download all of them, find their apk's and upload them somewhere. Of course try to install a few on the shift and see if they work first.
Everything except audio recorder.

Battery was tested and appears to work. Mirror if you want to keep sharing. From an Evo.
The last two have odex so I don't know how to deal with that so I included them anyway.
AWESOME! Battery and Tasks worked for me. I will let other people test the others
Widgets now available from HTC
Just an FYI, I just downloaded a few from HTC through the phone. Widgets listed are:
Battery
Daily Challenge
Fortune Cookie
Notes
Quick Record
Sand Timer
Tasks
Tip Calculator
Today in History
Translator
Word of the Day
I was able to download the HTC widgets directly from my shift. Maybe it was just a temporary issue.

Best way to share game saves and twitter timeline between N7 and phone?

Found some solution online but couldn't try them cause I haven't received my N7 yet to try them out:
GameShare
DataSync
GameOn
Also is there an app that sync where you stopped at your timeline? that would be great.
Can you share your experience if you tried them? if not try and tell your experience to the Android realm : )
Hands down datasync. Well to be fair I haven't tried the other two, but that's because I never had to. Datasync works flawlessly even when it first got released for me. I used that to transfer some save data from a few apps today when I got my N7. Give them all a try but definitely start with DataSync.
Thank You!
What about twitter? is there any twitter app with timeline position sync.
the only solution I've found is using TweetMarker. which am trying when N7 arrives

Tweetmarker works quite well. The only two Twitter apps that I know of that use it are Plume and Tweetlanes. Tweetlanes isn't officially supported on tablets though, but the developer makes the apk availabale here: https://plus.google.com/104649936579980037256/posts/53SL5vZ3kZL
Boid is meant to add Tweetmarker support, but their development of key features isn't exactly quick so I wouldn't hold out.
