2 Issues After Flashing Updated Stock ROM W/ Root. - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I flashed the rooted stock Rom updated and now everythings great except for "FriendStream" & "Peep."
Both widgets and standalone apps. Help guys, I use them both really often.
Thanks.

Both of those apps are generally regarded as "terrible" in this community and most ROMs will not include them. If you must use them, I'm sure someone can supply the apk's, but I'd advise you to just go on the market and find alternatives. There are a million social network clients with the same functionality as the apps you're missing.

Oh. They serve me well enough but thanks for the tip.
I actually just solved my issue. Went to manage applications, clear friend stream & peep data, removed there accounts, added accounts back.
Mods please close. Thanks.

Gingerbread-Evo-Deck Widget Question

I'm currently using the 1.2m version of kushdeck's Gingerbread-Evo-Deck ROM.
My question is, where is the Calendar, News, Calculator, Weather, and Home Clock Widgets at?
Did I install something wrong, or were those removed as part of helping the battery life or cutting down unneeded apps by the developer?
And another quick question, whenever there's an update for kushdeck's ROM, do I just install the ROM as I did the first time, or is there an update path, and would I have to reset my phone to factory settings, delete cache, etc. before installing?
Another question, since my phone is rooted, how do I allow my phone to act as a hotspot? Is there a certain ROM or App I need, or is there already a built-in function I'm overlooking?
Your help is much appreciated!

Since it isn't a "sense" rom, and a aosp rom, you wont have the regular clock, Calender, etc Widgets. You will have to find alternatives from the market.
And to update to the newest version, as of now with it being 1.2x all you have to do is wipe dalvik/cache. Now if he puts out a update like 2.0 then a full wipe will be recommended. And lastly, for the hotspots feature, get wifi tether for free from the market

Ah, much appreciated.
I wonder if "sense" ROM's would be recommended over AOSP, but I kind of like how it's empty.
Just miss those lovely widgets! :/
Thanks for the info, I'll be sure to check out market for wifi tethering.

Preference really of sense or aosp I stayed on sense for a while, tried cm7, now decks, and I don't think ill go back anytime soon. And if you really miss the sense clock, try beautiful Widgets in the market, you can theme and skin it to look almost exactly like the sense clock. And yes for 3/4g the wifi works with both, just flip on 4g and hit the start tethering button. I'm mobile right now but look in the general section for "wifi tether and aosp roms" if you can't get it to work and it has directions on how to get it working

Beautiful Widgets is nice, but idk if it's really worth the $$$ since it doesn't have Calendar or Calculator too... But I may try it out, thanks!
I'm curious, there's no ROM's that provide individual Sense Widgets?
I installed the "Wireless Tether for Root Users" by Muller, Lemons, Buxton, and it says, "This application requires a 'rooted'-device and a (custom-) kernel which supports netfilter (iptables)!"
Question is, do I already have this "custom kernel" when I rooted my phone, or where can I get it from and how do I install?
Wifi tether is already built into decks roms. Settings>wireless&networks>portable hotspots>wireless tether. That should get you going.
Thanks is always good

I use fancy widget pro and it feels and almost looks like a sense based clock with weather. It has like 5 customized sizes and presets. I generally use fancy widget home its the the full clock with the weather similar to sense.
This widget will also work with both gingerbread and sense so no need to worry if you convert back and like the widget.

Nope lol. I've been google stalking it but can't find it anywhere.
I signed up.. Still waiting. I'm sure once they start sending out links for this it will be on here.
I also was able to sign up before it was closed. No word yet. Hope they're not c*ck blocking on us custom rom users.
I also missed the signups, but I hope I can get my hands on the beta version because the one they have in the market is killing me!
Any update

It's been released...
did u actually get a private beta version sent to you? 1.6 is available in the android market and its practically unchanged
Just the one that's on the Market, I guess 1.6 isn't the beta we are looking for.
Has anyone installed the update? Many comments in Market about problems since updating to this version...
Guess not! I have the update installed, no problems but there's nothing new.

Still loads of bugs,
Cant get into friends with a force close.
Messages broken, they don't sync properly.
Also to rub salt into the wound, the have FULL access to your text messages with no legitimate reason. Poor effort. Might have to find the 1.5.4 apk.
I'll keep my 1.5.1 Works good even with friends. Anything after was a nightmare.
Im using Cyanogen V7.1-RC1 and seems like LauncherPro doesnt sync my Facebook events to LauncherPro Calendar widget or normal Calendar like it used (Theres only option to sync contacts in settings) before.
Not sure if the problem occured with Nightly build 119 which I used before, but Im pretty sure it worked with that, and ofc. with Sense based roms.
Is the problem now with LauncherPro or with Cyanogen? Or maybe even with the Facebook app?
Argh!!! Its all changed!! Suddenly about 15 mins ago it seemed to completely reload and now looks "improved" For the record, I previously force closed and cleared cache / data so this is just weird.
Cons:
Friends still force closes though
Pros:
Filters on friend feed.. Yay, finally get rid of pages of stupid game updates.
Looks and feels smoother. (I'm on Wifi though)

If you are having problems I really suggest running a fix_permissions from RM or from terminal, it solves most of my problems for me. I updated a few days ago but it suddenly changed for me too. The new news feed is pretty nice and I love how I can like comments now. Pages seem to be so-so but better than nothing. Chat actually seems to be working!
I don't use launcherpro but if I'm not mistaken, it uses its own client completely separate from the official facebook app so the new update shouldn't be affecting anything.

[Q] LiquidSmooth; No push app notifications?

Evening all.
I've been using LiquidSmooth V1.4, v3.08 Franco.Kernel-nightly-384gpu for months and have only praise for the developers. Amazing ROM, with fantastic functionality, speed and customization. Though I seem to have found a fault with apps that require push and notifications appearing in.the status bar. In that I don't get notifications.
I'll use IMDB and eBay as an example. For new titles or.reviews, or outbid notices and sale notifications. No pop ups appear with their respective sounds or icons. Is this a known error that's been fixed? As I've re-installed LiquidSmooth several times to no effect. But when using Android Revolution etc I have no issues?
I've also narrowed it down to most apps that push data onto the device. Only apps that seem to work are Gmail, Messenger and Facebook? And before you ask which I'm sure it will be. The necesary settings are on within the respective apps like eBay and IMDB!
If it's worth noting. I re-installed all my apps using Titanium Backup including data from previous roms where this function worked with no concern?
Thanks in advance!
well if you have no issues with other roms just change rom? and liquid smooth no longer belongs to the community as they charge money in order to be able to install the rom so... I don't think you will find further support here about that matter with that rom.. or you can go ask them in their forum/website about it...
cheers

HTC sense people apk

Hey!
I'm searching for the people apk which was a standard app in HTC sense. I'm running cyanagen mod now and I only have the normal contacts app.
The thing is, the people app from sense could connect the same contacts from different sources. Let's say I have a contact John as a phone, and Facebook and twitter contact. It would sync these and put them as on contact in the list. This is a function I really need..
Does anyone have the apk for it? Or a recommendation for an app that does pretty much the same
Thanx!

i dont think u'll be able to use htc sense people app while running AOSP (or any non-sense rom) because of the framework... dont know bout a third party app, but probably just searching on the play store should show something up

Thank you for replying!
I did search in the play store, but it didn't show anything in that sort. Do you know why it can't play on a AOSP? is it because of the source code? i thought it's just an apk like any other app..
The two main apps that I have heard of are Smartr Contacts (from Xobni) and Contacts + (Contapps) both free on the play store.
Smartr Contacts https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xobni.contacts&hl=en
Contacts + https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.contapps.android&hl=en
Check them out, if you find a better one post back and let me know.
Much of the sense framework is different than aosp, cm, aokp, touchwiz, etc. sense apk's need the framework of sense roms to run on a different platform. There are all sorts of apps that people have made that look and act like sense that will work in other roms, I have just never seen the people one, but if you look around you may get lucky. But I have heard that there has been some people able to get some sense apps working just fine on aosp based roms, maybe try finding one of them and see if they could get people to work

Yes girls know about XDA
you can thank a girl on here
Thank you!
I've tried both of them and contapps did exactley what I wanted! It took the different profiles of the same person and placed them in and showed them as one contact.
Smartr contacts is also a nice app but it doesn't take the diffenrent information in one ontact. So if someone placed their phonenumber on let's say facebook, I still didn't have it as his phonenumber in his contact form. Instead it gets the different comunication platforms all together in one screen, so you can communicate with someone specificlay in facebook and twitter at the same time. Not what I was searching for but still nice if you are searching for that.
Everybody else, thank you for replying en helping me

Maximizing the experience

Hey guys,
Ultra Noob here cutting my teeth in the forums. I'm trying to build the best phone I can since I will probably be using it.....foooooorrrrrrreeeeeevvvveeeerrrrr....... We switched to a new tmob plan that we dont get upgrades. Its way cheaper but...sad...
Anywho... I'm looking for way to really jazz this bad boy up. whats your guys favorite programs to maximize this thing and customize it as well?
I currently have it running the andromadus cm10 nightly from Flinny from here and I have downloader a few programs to unlock titanium pro, sms restore and back pro, Lucky patcher, use androzip, poweramp full, scoremobile...i dunno what else to put just looking to my more knowlageable counterparts.
Thanks!
I use LBE security, try to get an older version though. It allows you to configure security for all apps installed on your phone. You can block or allow certain permissions. Like for example, Tweetcaster & Soundhound frequently request your location, you can disable that, or not allow a certain app to read your call logs, or get your IMEI number, or contacts. Been using it for a while, I like the control it gives me.
I also recommend ROOT Toolbox Pro, it has a plethora of functions and extras for root users

Lbe security is awesome but I am a belt and suspenders kinda guy so I use droidwall as well just to be sure.
