[Q] RSK Rom and Email - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have installed the RSK rom with Sense which looks great. After install I can't seem find a way to add or setup the corporate email connector / activesync. Any suggestions, I like the look of this rom and would like to use it.
Thanks
p.s. I installed it on my HTC Desire

Do you Auto or Manual Setup?

HTC Sense, link "phone" button to contacts

Hi guys,
I really hate this T9 dailer thing what you get when you click on the phone shortcut in Sense. Is it possible to link this to contacts or even replace the whole dialer with the Android stock one?
Some of you may ask yourself why I hate it.
Reason 1: you dial people by mistake like all the time
Reason 2: you are unable to hide Facebook contacts
Reason 3: the call list is integrated and I normally need longer to find a contact I called before because he's not where you look for him.

Nearly forgot to mention that I am on a rooted HTC Froyo ROM.

HTC Desire + Hotmail

hey guys,
Apparently, since all of us stock Telus Desire owners are on 2.1, there is a problem with HTC Mail connecting to Hotmail through exchange (m.hotmail.com). Not sure if Telus is planning on fixing this when 2.2 is out (if ever, tabernac).. But what have some of you guys done to get this to work in the interm?
Some people were able to switch to Android mail which apprently works.. How do you get that exactly? I'm new to Android and still finding my way around..
Other people have tried third party software like K-9 and what not, apparently they work too.
Any feedback would be great!
anyone? this is really stressing me out..
I have my gmail account pick up my hotmail emails and use the gmail app (which uses IMAP).
otherwise, is there a problem with using the mail app and pop3 rather than exchange?
I would tell you exactly how I set it up, but I lost the friggen thing a week ago. New one on its way *thanks insurance*
with pop3, u wont be able to see the other folders or synch your emails to your mobile (ie, if u delete an email on mobile, it wont in your inbox..)
Use gmail its pretty good but sometimes 3rd party apps are good too.

It doesnt really help when someone says they want to use hotmail then the solution you're proposing is to use gmail.. :\
I'm not telling use gmail, I said it was good but if you really wanna use Hotmail just get a 3rd party app.

Install IMPROVED EMAIL from the Market. Works brilliantly.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Cant find improved email in the market.. is it because I'm still running 2.1 and that is a 2.2 app?
I thought 2.2 resolves the hotmail issue anyways without having to make any changes?

Stop HTC Sense from auto-restoring Hub downloads?

After wiping or flashing a new Rom, I usually add my HTC Sense account under Accounts&Sync settings...
After doing that, Sense always automatically downloads and installs about 5-6 widgets from HTC Hub...
Is there a way to turn this off?
I had downloaded these widgets manually on another Rom, but didn't use them and even uninstalled them. Still, Sense redownloads them automatically on every new Rom... Kinda annoying.
Any help appreciated!

Skip putting in your gmail details at first boot.
Then untick the automatically restore apps option in one if the settings menus.
Then add your account details.

That works for the Google account, but I'm talking about the HTC Sense account here... (the one used for downloading widgets etc. from HTC Hub)
Thanks anyway!

Microsoft exchange - company directory

When I was using Leedroid 2.3 Rom, there was an option for company directory which allowed me to find contact details of people within my company.
But I'm now using a sense 3.0 Rom and I can't find this option. Is it actually available?

[Q] Conacts App Question

Hey folks,
I am real new to this awesome and vast world of custom roms, loving it, finding the testing and discovery of all the awesome roms lots of fun, albeit time consuming
I am enjoying the Non-Sensed experience a lot. There is one feature that I miss however and that is the Linked Contacts. I tried to install the HTCContacts APK in hope that I would regain the functionality but this didn't work. Is there something I can do, aside from going back to a Sense ROM?
Forgive the noobness.
Thanks so much.
You can't use any stock apps without a Sense ROM.
I use haxsync from the play store to sync my facebook contacts.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
you could try go contacts or haxsync
If you want free alternatives to HaxSync, try these. HaxSync works best though.
Contact Sync for Facebook - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ro.weednet.contactssync
Sync.ME -Facebook Contact Sync - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.syncme.syncmeapp
Sent from my Desire HD using xda premium
Thanks for all the input folks, I really appreciate it.
I think I may land up trying out some of the Sense ROMS.
Just a few things HTC actually did right that I miss. :/
Thanks again.
