I side loaded 2.2 onto my phone and it works wonderfully but, now when I try to email a photo it just continuously says sending and never actually sends it. Has anyone had this problem or can anyone point me in the direction of the correct corrective action.
Just tested going to Gallary, select a photo, then share, then Gmail and it was sent and delivered. Seems to work ok for me.
What method did you try?
-JD
ps. I am have build 3.16.32.15-g7507bb0 (Offical 2.2 with rmk-inc_froyo_fixes_v4 patch).
did you run the rmk froyo fixes v4 patch?

He has 1 post so obviously not...how many people come here asking for help in the dev when it needs to be in general when the fix is usually already out there?
I'd say roughly 90%...
Apply the [PATCH]2.2 fixes deal. It'll work.
Sorry for posting this in the wrong place and being part of the 90%! (Honestly77)
Could someone who would like to help direct me to the correct location for the fix.
I found the thread and DL the file but it says "Apply the zip via CWM as usual (can be re-run anytime, such as for updates)." what does "CWM as usual" mean?
CWM is clockwork recovery. Boot into recovery and apply zip from SD card.

Do I need to rename it update when I put it on the SD card?
Nice!,thank you for the help with the terminology, I installed it and it is working like normal now. my gmail works again, thank you.
Does anybody know how I can get Gmail to show me my inbox with it's list of emails (old and new) instead of directly showing me the newest email (opened) when I tap on Gmail??
any help with the question above??
I think I figured it out. If you do not want Gmail to open up the new email directly when you tap on the Gmail icon.. do not exit Gmail using the back key.. Instead use the home button to exit Gmail.. that way next time when you open it.. it'll go to your inbox list instead of an opened/new email.
Thanks for the response but has nothing to do with my problem.

I've had a similar issue with another app that seemingly took for ever to pass something thru the internet... just like the issue with send that you are having.. Uninstalling and reinstalling the particular app seemed to fix the problem for me.
so Facebook updated their Android app. When i try to update, installation was unsuccessful.
Having had to deal with this before....i backup'd w/ TB, uninstalled, restarted, and trying to update again. Same issue (installation was unsuccessful). Now, TB won't let me restore my backup for some reason
Has anyone else experienced this yet or know how to fix it??
Worst case, could someone upload the 1.4 .apk for me?
Thanks guys.

Some ROMs will not allow the update...for instance I'm running Ultimate Droid and launcher pro fails for done reason.

I had to uninstall w/ TB and Reboot. Clear cache/data from market (restart) in order to install.
Then had to fix permissions with rom manager in order to run the app.
Seems like quite a hassle...wonder if anyone else is going through troubles

Market told me there was an update available, I went in and did the manual update and it d/l and installed with no problem. See device info below. We finally get to catch up with the iPhone zombies with "Places"....cant say that I missed it too much.
I'm running Uncommon Sense and I can't update to FB 1.4.0 either. It just says installation unsuccessful. If anyone finds a solution please post.

after it fails in the market, go to astro sdcard/download and instal from there. Thats what i do with all the fail installs. Always works.
Ugh I'm on uncommon sense to, no fix yet guys?
If your facebook apk is in the system/app directory, you may need to manually delete the apk (use Root Explorer), reboot, then try installing Facebook from the market.
(This worked for me with Uncommon Sense)

Another success here with that helpful advice. Thanks!!
I accidentally erased Facebook for HTC Sense. Now i can't sync my contacts with Facebook. I'm rooted with unrEvoked, and i guess i have stock kernel. Any suggestions how to download this again? Is there something better for syncing with Facebook.
Thanks
Go to the regular facebook page from your browser and there will be a link at the bottom of the facebook page to download to your Evo.
Stealthl: thanks, but that only downloads the one in Android Market. I need the one that came with the phone, so I can sync with my contacts. Anyone have that ROM for downloading?

uhh... they're the same app? Many roms I flash don't come with Facebook at all. I download it from the market, log in, and it gives me the option to sync contacts.
I also would love to get this, since made the same mistake. Side note they are not the same.
Extract it from the Rom your using (zip) and push it into your system it re-flash the Rom.

That seems to be the app from the market right.
The app we're looking for is the one that comes on the evo from sprint. It is called HTC Facebook for Sense.
I am having the same issue where I deleted the HTC Facebook app thinking it was the same as the market FB app when apparently it is now. And now my contact list will not synch with Facebook.
I also tried to create a facebook account under "accounts and synch" but it didn't work presumably because I no longer have HTC Facebook installed.
This is what comes on the phone.
They are not the same. That being said... the one in the market is definitely better. The only down side is it wont sync your facebook calendar. (if that matters to you) It SHOULD do contacts. What you have to do is go to the home screen, then choose menu, settings, sync contacts, then choose the appropriate choice. Note: it doesnt open to the home screen.
If you still couldn't get the Android Market Facebook work with syncing your contacts, or if you still just want the HTCFacebook.apk, then here it is. You need to copy it to /system/app, using Root Explorer, or use adb to push it to system/app. It won't work if you try to install it like a regular app.
Edit: I just noticed that the OP was from mid November!!! HAHAHA
Copied to /system/app using root explorer get app not installed error any suggestions...its funny hoe you go crazy deleting stock apps when u first root then loose some functionality like the ability to sync

I would really just suggest the one from the market... or reinstalling the rom (no need to wipe if its the same rom, just clear both catches.

Once you copy and paste it into system /app, long press htcfacebook.apk. choose permissions. Be sure that the top rows of the first two columns are checked.

just open the zip file of your rom and navigate to system/app/ and find the calendar app
then adb push it back into system/app/
Jorte is a great calender app if you want a replacement
Thanks I just installed the Jorte to hold me over I have no idea what ROM!. i'm useing android 2.2 Igot the phone yeterday and then used that- unrevoked to root it. And here I am I was deleteing downloaded calender widget and I deleted the HTC by mistake
You are running the stock ROM then. Give me a minute and I'll get the calendar for you, but if you just find the flashable zip for the stock ROM and unzip it, the apk will be in there.
Edit: attached.

sounds like you are stock from sprint with no custom rom. i think you still might be able to adb push the calendar app from something like sprint lovers rom or download root explorer from the market and push it to system/app also.
Didn't work says not app file need idiots guide how to adb or something put Damn calendar bi cause I'm getting an error msg too will find msg later
If make u a flashable zip .....do you no how. To flash from recovery
Error refers this process "com.htc.bgp " after I delete calender started coming up and my fb won't sync
Do you know how to flash a zip file from recovery
i'm learning im learning
ok installed the android adb "push" calendar.apk file into system/app still doesn't work, says no Calender odx file something NOW What!!!
Should I have used adb "install"????
Now that the dump is out, im hosting the gmail apk again! enjoy!
here it is guys, the newest Gmail 4.2 Reported to be working for Android 4.0+, rooted devices only. If you are having issues with 'waiting to sync', clear app data under settings and try again
Installation Option 1:
uwdus said:
Uninstalled old apk with Titanium -> Reboot -> Installed new Gmail apk with explorer -> Reboot - Done
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Installation Option 2:
The Gmail 4.2 APK is signed by Google, but with a different key than the one in the Play Store (we checked the signatures - they differ). One is probably the test key and the other the production key. For this reason, you can't simply install it as an update and therefore need to be rooted with the ability to mount the /system directory for writing in order to remove the existing Gmail APK.
OK, let's get down to it. You'll probably need ADB installed on your computer (here's an easy way that doesn't require downloading the Android SDK). There is a chance that this might work without ADB by just removing the APKs mentioned below and installing the new one, but it didn't seem to work reliably for everyone. This should, though:
1. Download Gmail 4.2 from one of the mirrors above.
2. Rename it to Gmail2.apk.
3. Make a Nandroid backup in case something goes wrong (this is always a good thing to do before messing with your device).
4. Delete (or move if you want to save the APKs) all other versions of Gmail. Usually there are 2 or 3 copies. One will be in /system/app (that's the original Gmail that was pre-installed on the device) and there may be a few in /data/app (these are the updates installed from the Play Store). They'll be called "Gmail.apk," or "com.google.android.gm-[number].apk," An easy way to tell is to look for the Gmail icon.
5. You may need to delete the .odex files matching the APKs in step 4 too, if you have them. Neither I nor Artem had to do this, but there are many different ROMs out there, and we're trying to cover all bases. Ignore this step and only come back to it if something doesn't work later.
6. Reboot. Once you do, you should have no Gmail as far as Android is concerned.
7. You can try to install the Gmail 4.2 APK you downloaded at this point by tapping it in your favorite file explorer (move the APK to your device first, of course). If that doesn't work, or if you prefer ADB, fire up a command line and type adb install Gmail2.apk.
If you get an error message, you probably didn't delete all copies of Gmail. If you don't feel like playing with ADB for Step 7, I've also gotten it to work by just copying the APK to /data/app, but that's not as fool proof as "ADB install".

Does this pre-release version supercede future Gmail updates?
Thanks for the update. Love the new pinch-to-zoom feature! (BTW, swipe to "archive or delete" always archives for me. Can't figure out how to choose delete, instead.)
Question: Now that I have this pre-release Gmail2.apk installed, does this mean that I won't get any more Production releases of the Gmail app? (After all, I uninstalled the original Gmail app with Titanium Backup before I installed the new Gmail2.apk.) Once Gmail 4.2 is formally released, should I uninstall the Gmail2.apk and re-install the deleted Gmail.apk? (Will that work using TB?)

As of now gmail won't appear in your play store. Once it's released to the public, you should be able to uninstall the leak and just download the new one from the store.
