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 :/
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?
Currently when i select a contact in the "People" App, it says they are synced with:
Phone
Phone
Facebook
Facebook For HTC Sense
Firstly, is there anyway to delete the other "Phone" link without having to manually unlinking them?
Secondly, do i need my contacts sync all my contacts with both Facebook & Facebook for HTC Sense to get their facebook display pictures to show up and for facebook widgets to work?
& finally, is there anyway to get all my contacts to sync with google without having to re-add them all to my phone.

You can try contact analyzer which can be found in market. To find duplicate contacts.
For LAST question, you can export all your contact from your people and import them to GOogle, or you can setting up active sync.

I would suggest keeping the facebook for HTC sense sync , I tried not having that and contact pics were all blurry...makes alot of difference when you're getting a call etc.

Nope , you can keep htc sense synced and let normal facebook stay disabled thats what I do now keeps the amount of linked contacts to a minimum.

Hi, after i got my new HTC One X (The old one had Display problem)
I can't find Facebook for HTC in Accounts & Synchronisation?!
Only the normal Facebook.
Setting the preferences back and Delete all accounts doesn't work.
How to get it back?
So completely stock and a hard reset done.
Firmware is 1.28??
to be honest no idea at the moment
In the friendsstream app....., is it there??
no worries about that.
since ICS, htc integrate (linked) their facebook for htc with original facebook app (katana).
just sign in and it will showing up on friendstream widget or app.
Pictures of some of my FB contacts don't show on People. Anything wrong I'm doing?

yes, but then when uploading a photo through gallery "share" with Facebook for HTC Sense the upload fails at 100% (every time).
on a probably unrelated note, installation of LinkedIn for HTC Sense from HTC Hub fails too

Most probably the contact is not completely sync the picture yet. It happens to mine too, after awhile the picture will appeared, no worry
Actually every since Sense 3.5, the Facebook For HTCSense is no where to be seen in the Account. Everything is done via official FB, but you still hv the function of uploading a picture via FB for HTCSense, and it works for me everything. Benefit of this is it allows you to tag ppl in picture but the official FB lack of this function
Kudos to HTC Sense

Same for me! I had to re-link some of my contacts manually...
It took at least 30mins.

In response to enyaj, may not help the OP.
Wow I have been having the same problem for some time now (FB for HTC Sense not linking up profile pics with contacts), and my wifes phone would always error on photo uploads) figured out that I changed the FB password awhile back to prevent a possible hacking video issue. If you change your password on FB and use FB for HTC Sense, you must go into: Menu> Settings> Acctounts & Sync. Then delete your FB for HTC Sense account. Then just add account (bottom of screen) FB for HTC Sense and login with the correct email and password. Bam all my contacts pictures sync'd with their FB profile pics, status updates and such are working also. Hope this helps.
I got the same issue .. and after googleing .. I found out that I have to unistall Facebook update ..delete my FB account from Account$Syncing in the settings .. and make a restart,, then add My FB again in Account&Syncing ..
hi, i wanted to know how can I enable or why my whatsapp is not showing me the pictures of my contacts, I have all my contacts on my google account, none on the phone, and none on the sim card, and a lot of the are linked to facebook, twitter, etc.
and if you look at contacts all of them show the pictures, but in whatsapp only a few show the pictures of the contacts
any solution?
Probably you are not able to see Facebook contact photos in whatsapp. There were allowed to be "pulled" in Sense 3.0 but in Sense above this version they are not shown.
There are few solutions:
1. If you have a rooted phone you can try Photo Unlocker application, sadly, it has been pulled out from the market so you would need to search XDA for it.
2. You can use HaxSync to sync the pictures from Facebook and they would show normally. Alternative app is called Friend Caster.
3. People say there was an update to Whatsapp recently (can't see any on the market to be honest just now) which enables it.
After synchronizing your contacts with facebook, use photounlocker to unlock the restriction on facebook contacts.
1- open app
2- press check, it will ask for root permissions
3- press check again
4- press unlock
Done
Enjoy

Thanks! worked great!
it didn't work for me, I get error msg
Any other solutions?
Thank you very much. i was looking everywhere for this fix.
if on sense, facebook for htc sense is needed and it will synchronise you friends photos from fb
on Aosp you need to manually add a picture to each contsct you have, but this process you do it once in s liftime and whatever the rom you will be using your contacts photo will remain on any google phone
amazing app ... worked like magic thnx
