If your rooted just reflash the ROM if you deleted it
What do you mean get it back? Where did it go?
I think I have the same problem as the OP.
I run BuglessBeast V0.3 (great ROM btw!), and then also ran his Sprint Bloatware Removal tool, and I think it may have removed Facebook for HTC Sense, because now I can't sync my contacts up to Facebook. I can't seem to do it with the regular Facebook app (I can't add an account under Accounts & Sync).
I'm assuming the Sense version of Facebook must have been removed. I personally enjoyed the syncing of my contact list. Is there any way to load it back in? Can I somehow download the file somewhere and put it back in so that I'm able to sync again? I really wish the standard Facebook for Android app let you sync your contacts :/
So, I've flashed to Cyanogen 6.0.0 RC1. This removes the HTC Facebook stuff. The one thing I liked about the HTC Facebook stuff was that it allowed you to manually link Facebook contacts when the names didn't exactly match.
Well now simply relying on the inherent Facebook syncing, there are some contacts no longer linked, and the ones no longer linked have a Notes field in the contacts with the tags <HTCFacebook>...</HTCFacebook> on em. Whats the best way to clean all that up?
Never mind, simply exported the CSV using GMail, edited, and re-imported. Durr.
Hi,
today I got a notification from HTC Hub indicating that there were 2 new plugins for HTC Sense which are LinkedIn and Picasa.
I chose both to install, LinkedIn installed and I can see it and its nice. However, Picasa downloads but didn't install. Tried again as the notification still were there, but same thing happend again, downloads but never installs. Then the notification vanished!
I tried to find the Picasa Album plugin on HTC hub on both phone and HTCSense.com but never found it!!
Anybody experienced the same?
Does anybody know where HTC Hub downloads the files? I might find Picasa for HTC Sense file there and install it manually.
It would be nice to have the Picasa Album plugin so I do not need any third party app.
Noticed the exact same thing... got linked in but no picasa, and would have prefered to get picasa over linked in.
Yeah i had the same problem, i had two notifications one for the linkedIn and Picasa plug-ins and one for a new widget. I chose to install Picasa as the other two didn't interest me but it never installed and doesn't show up in the gallery as an option. I can't figure out how to get back to that plug-in choice section to try and download it again either
Although sometimes when i go to the HTC hub it shows up briefly saying 'failed to connect to server, try again later' but things still seem to load. Dunno if that's got anything to do with it. Hopefully they just pulled it and will have it available again soon
I downloaded the Linkedin app. Now it says "application not found" !!
had the same thing first i thought I downloaded both of them and then LinkedIn only show up in "Account & Sync" whereas Picasa is no where to be found.
also the update notification shows up randomly.
Same thing goes to the "Market" I was on the new Market UI at some point then it jumped back to the normal one
I downloaded the linked, I can see it in my manage apps, but it is not in my app drawer. I cannot open it. I wish HTC would provide some support here!
So I am not the only one facing this problem. Hope this will be fixed soon and pushed by HTC again

David:
I think you cannot find it in app drawer as it is a plugin for HTC Sense UI and not a standalone application for Android.
So you can find the application in Contacts -> Online -> and from here you choose LinkedIn
I don't have it in my HTC Hub. Where should it be?
its not there. I guess HTC pushed it to all and not included in HTC hub online yet.
re: picasa link
I tried to share/upload using picasa via galley but it's buggy, it want's you to log in to your google acct. even that you're logged already. Works fine if logged in.

Thats is something different.
Uploading to Picasa has always been there but the new plugin I think is to view your online albums and see pictures on your phone just like the new LinkedIn for HTC Sense plugin which enables you to see all of your friends and their profiles.

Thanks, it was there! Using it made me realize that the app is completely useless for my purposes. All it did was override my contacts with Linkedin contacts without email addresses, phone numbers, etc. I was hoping for that missing Android Linkedin app which this was not!

Are you sure it override your contacts with LinkedIn? For me what it does it actually good. I choose to see LinkedIn contacts when I open "Contacts" which you can switch off.
It links existing contacts you have in your phone with LinkedIn contacts but for me it didnt override anything!
If you mean it override your contacts, just unlink them and don't link any but still you can see all LinkedIn contacts.

I have actually deleted it as I could not figure out how to unlink. All I want is an app that accesses Linkedin, similar to twitter app, without having any effect on my phone contacts. Thanks again for your help!
Same to me, never been able to find downloaded apps.
I downloaded the LinkedIn app yesterday. When I connected to my LinkedIn account, syncing created new entries for my LinkedIn connections, which I manually had to link to the corresponding phone contacts (no automatic link suggestions). I can now view their LinkedIn profile from their contact card.
While I was in LinkedIn, I added some new people to my network. By the time they'd responded, I could no longer sync with my LinkedIn account. Force close!
I deleted my LinkedIn account, then recreated it. Syncing worked again, but I had to manually link the LinkedIn contacts to existing phone contacts once again.

I had the notification pop up to download both. Downloaded them - neither installed so I tried restarting and can't find either of them. Nor can I get back to the page on HTC Hub to download them from...
Anybody have suggestions on where to download it from?

Even I was befuddled by this. Linkedin didnt seem to install correctly. But it has - it is just an addon/plugin to the People/Contacts app and thats why the linkedin icon does not appear in the all apps page.
This Linkedin plugin allows you to sync your linkedin contacts to your address book - just go to the online directories section of the people app and click on the linkedin icon to login to your linkedin account. It also auto-suggests linking the contacts like Facebook for HTC sense plugin does, just need to give it some time.
Now to go and find out what the picasa update does!!
I did do that but linkedin isn't listed unfortuantely. Is there a URL that can trigger the download link?
Hey everyone.
I have install facebook for android few months ago. After that i notice that my People's contact pic does not sync with facebook pic anymore. is there anyway to sync back the pic on update?
I did try edit the contact, select the pic and select facebook for htc sense.
That doesn't works.
Under watchdog app, i still see Facebook for HTC Sense but i can't launch the app.
go to
settings---accounts and sync----sync htc sense facebook....
or switch on auto update.......
hi
That didn't work.
as i mention, i accidentally install "facebook for android"
so currently it mess up with the htc sense facebook.
all profile pic for "people" will not update.
Is there anyway to install back the old "Facebook for htc sense"?
i have facebook for android but i also have htc facebook...........
installing facebook for android willnot affect the htc sense facebook....
apparently i found the solution
remove account in the sync and add back.
The HTC syncing with Facebook and Sense Facebook is not the best system, but neither are any of the others, generally if you are having issues with profile photos, an application I would recommend on the top of my head is called SyncPic which is very good and automatically downloads the profile photos of Facebook only, not with other networking websites...but give a crack if you are still having issues...

I had the same issue,
Thanks for the recommendation
No problem with linkedin and others. But when I try to add Facebook, I'm kicked back to the list of accounts.
Tried to reinstall facebooks, tried to clear the FB data ad cache. Even was not possible to add FB account after installing a stock 4.0.4 ROM from google (after full phone erase).
Google and FB are not friends anymore?
Facebook's Fault
Facebook never made or modified an ICS version for there app. Consequently you cannot add account and phone will not sync. There are numerous fix solutions with root. My Gnex is not rooted so I simply use an app called SyncMyPix in Play Store. This app will at least sync you photos for contact purposes. Facebook just need to optimize for ICS and things will work better!
The issue is actually Facebook not using the correct API for contact sync and hasn't moved on the issue for over a year: http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/22/google-disables-contact-sync-in-facebook-for-android-only-nexus/
If you want a deeper integration on stock android like status updates in you "people" app you can get something like HaxSync (don't know if there is a better or free solution).
