Is the what is referred to as HTC Super Caller ID or a different program?
http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.innovamentis.supercallerid
If this isn't the right one talked about in the Froyo update then can someone point me in the right direction please
Thanks all!
That's not it. Essentially it shows the latest status update from Facebook and the birthday of the person calling. It's a gimmick.
so is this something that is built in to the new 2.2 android update or is it a seperate app that you have to install for this information to be displayed?
It's built into HTC's Sense UI with Froyo, yeah.
Not working on my phone for some reason.

When someone calls you, assuming you've linked their account in your contacts then it should just pop-up.

Yeah their picture pops ip but their status and birthday doesn't, am I missing a setting somewhere maybe?
I'm interested in this as well as I have the same features as 2.1 when receiving a call.

What are you guys going on about? This is an app called super caller id, it has nothing to do with htc, its a 3rd party app that shows the callers address and other info on the dialers incoming call screen, it only works in a handfull of contries atm tho

You know the little heading underneath your posting that says " Posted via facebook for HTC Sense" Is there a app or a way to change it to anything you want?

You need to delete or uninstall Facebook for HTC Sense. If you use Root Explorer or some file managing program that lets you delete out of the /system directory then delete this file:
/system/app/HtcFacebook.apk
That is your Facebook for HTC Sense.
This is also another file associated with Facebook for HTC Sense, it wouldn't hurt to delete:
/data/dalvik-cache/[email protected]@[email protected]
Ooops, I didn't read that all the way through clearly lol. When I saw Facebook for HTC Sense, I immediately thought of removing it all together
Try this link. It works for me

Hi... There are 2 ways to post status on Facebook... one is by normal facebook application, and the other is Facebook of HTC Sense...
I guess they are the same applications, but the interface is different.
My problem is when I post status using Facebook, the posts are public... whereas while posting thru Facebook of HTC Sense, the posts are private within my frnd circle.
Is dere anyway by which I can change the privacy settings of Facebook of HTC Sense so that posts made thru it are public? I cudnt see any option like that.
The posts are public when you post something through Facebook?
Not with my case. Both are same, but when I post something using 'Facebook for HTC Sense' my photos get uploaded in the mobile uploads album whereas when I upload photos using the Facebook app, the get uploaded in the wall photos album.
using HTc Sense to upload, you can choose the album u wanna upload to

Hello, everyone.
HTC M8 is my fourth HTC device. When I log on to Facebook app and enable it in Services & Apps in BlinkFeed, I still do not see any content from Facebook. I get content from LinkedIn and others fine on BlinkFeed, but not Facebook.
I have done almost everything I could do and followed everything I could find on Google, but no luck. I thought it was BlinkFeed problem, but my friends don't have this problem. I had the same issue on M8 EYE.
I wrote a mail to HTC as well as Facebook, but they too were not able to resolve the problem. I didn't even get a reply from Facebook.
Finally, I thought there might be a problem with my Facebook account. I have now asked Facebook to delete my account completely. I have 12 days before my account gets completely erased. I hope somebody might be able to help me here.
Thanks.
I have the same problem

I'm also facing the same issue on M8 Eye where Blinkfeed not getting updated with facebook feeds, Can someone help
I am having this too
I am having this too.
I cant believe we are just a few people having this!

You guys aren't alone, I to have the same issue. I've had some success at remedying the problem by creating a new fb account. Even this is flaky as only a few feeds are updated. My original fb account still won't play nicely With BlinkFeed and still has no content.

me too,i have this issue .
Yep, same problem here.
And it's being going on for quite a while!! Facebook not updating in Blinkfeed.
---
I'm not generally a big fan of Facebook; I only use it because some close family members are on it...
This problem, I'm sure, lies with the Facebook app itself, and not with Blinkfeed... since the Twitter app, Google Plus app and the Tumblr app, all update successfully in Blinkfeed on my M8, as well as sundry custom search feeds.
Further, and aside from Blinkfeed, the Facebook app notifications are very hit and miss for me, not just on my M8, but on all my Android devices. Some notifications are delivered... most, however, are not.
---
Anyhow, given my scarce usage of Facebook, I've decided to uninstall it from my M8.... (it's also an incredible space hog, consuming 158Mb of internal storage)... and just keep apprised of family events via Facebook on Chrome.
Aside from freeing up 158Mb of internal storage, my M8 now **feels** more responsive.
And, certainly, manually updating Blinkfeed by 'pulling down' now just takes a second or two... instead of the good half-minute it used to, whilst waiting for Facebook to get it's 'skates on'... And which of course, it rarely (if ever), it actually does.
---
I suspect at some point, Blinkfeed just 'times out' waiting for Facebook to deliver content, and then moves on to whatever else is in your Blinkfeed 'feed' .
---
My M8 isn't rooted, and I don't have any immediate plans to root it... But it might be an interesting exercise, for those who are rooted, to examine a Logcat output, whilst Blinkfeed is attempting to 'read' Facebook content, in order to ascertain some sense of what is going on behind the scenes, so to speak.
In the meantime, and until Facebook fixes this problem with their app, there's probably not much that can be done, unfortunately.
Well, that's my view anyway.
Rgrds,
Ged.

Go to the phone's (not Blinkfeed) Settings>Accounts & sync, and make sure Facebook is listed there (add it, if it isn't) and synching properly. I think Blinkfeed accesses FB directly, and not through the FB app.
In fact, if you look through your apps, you will see there is a "Facebook for HTC Sense" as well as "Facebook" (if you installed it from the Play Store).
For that matter, maybe try to clear cache or clear data for the "Facebook for HTC Sense" if the above suggestions don't solve the issue.
Mine started to show Facebook posts about a day after I loged in. All of a sudden blinkfeed was full of Facebook I had to disable it.
Thanks for the reply
Hi Redpoint,
Thanks for your reply. There is one other problem with it. There is no "Facebook for HTC Sense". It used to be on all my previous HTC devices. But it just isn't there now. That's what I thought the problem was. Can anybody please confirm it?

Hi, blinkash...
There is a 'Facebook for HTC Sense' app on my M8... running unrooted & unmodified stock Lollipop 5.0.1.
But you won't find it in the app drawer.
It's in the SETTINGS>>APPS>>ALL tab.
(See the first screenshot below.)
The actual APK/app is located in /system/priv-app/Facebook.
(See the second screenshot below.)
As you can see, it's pretty small, clocking in at just 2.4Mb.
---
I would really like to report that clearing it's data and/or cache resolves the Blinkfeed/Facebook update problem... Sadly, however, it does not... At least it doesn't for me.
---
As far as I can work out, all that 'Facebook for HTC Sense' does is provide a 'hook/entry' and an authorisation point for the official Facebook app to deliver Facebook content to Blinkfeed.
(See the third and fourth screenshot below.)
And sadly, and as others have commented on this thread, this mechanism is not quite working the way it should.
Rgrds,
Ged.
I'm in same boat as you guys. M8 and changed a couple or roms and nothing fixed the problem.
