I was wondering if anyone had a Facebook for HTC Sense 4.0 APK or a file I could install. The rom I have on my phone doesn't have it on there and I can't use friendstream and the Facebook widget doesn't work correctly. (I'm not sure if that's any relation to why the Official Facebook widget isn't working) I have researched this extensively and I can't seem to find this file for Sense 4.0.
Here you go, both Facebook.apk and FacebookEngine.apk but not sure if they work for your ROM. Put them in system/app and put right permission rw-r--r--
These are HTC files so you still need the facebook app to make it work.

Im sorry i posted this originally in the Apps section got no bites so imma post it here ... please dont flame me lol
I am in no way a dev but i was just curious if this app can been run/ported to a vanilla android build?
I am currently running [ROM] YetiROM_Nexus_Inc (Vanilla 2.1)- stable with stock kernel ... I have tried pushing HTCFacebook.apk HTCFacebook.odex and FriendStream.apk to the /system/app via recovery caused a boot loop ... rm'd FriendStream.apk still boot loop ... rm'd HTCFacebook.apk and HTCFacebook.odex and phone booted fine... I knew it couldnt be that easy... are there other dependacies that HTC Sense apps need? Im guessing there is code inside the .apk that needs changed? Is this possible?
I am running Jager's 1.6.1 rom, and I pushed HtcFacebook.apk, HtcFacebook.odex, Friendstream.apk and Friendstream.odex to /system/app, and all is working fine with facebook sync on mine, with no ill side effects..... Just to let you know it DOES work that way.
hmmm ok i did not push the friendstream.odex originally ... ill give it another go ... thanks for the info!
the rom you are running still has alot of HTC stuff in it ... the one i am running has none... so im thinking there are other dependencies for HtcFacebook.apk to function ...
I was trying to get the HTC dialer running on yeti, but to no avail. I believe that some of the HTC apks need the sense launcher, not positive though.
yeah im not too sure its the sense launcher its looking for per se but there is definitly a dependency that the apps are looking for that arent there ... i posted this in Yeti's thread hopefully he has some ideas ... i may just start trying to copy over some more HTC stuff in the /system/app folder and see if i can get lucky lol
All of the htc ops and widgets are built to run only with sense. Only reason it still works on jager rom is because its still sense just all of the garbage is removed. None of the sense apps will work on a true vanilla rom or even a launcher running over sense (launcherpro etc.)

Correct - however I never had any facebook syncing issues when I was stock using LauncherPro. This only happens with other roms. I am trying lots to get it to work. Since you can have both facebook and HTCFacebook, maybe HTCFacebook does the syncing (using friendstream) and facebook (downloadable from market) just slaves the synced info from that.

HTCFacebook is the syncing i have yet to find a decent app that syncs facebooks contacts as well ... syncmypix is good but nothing like HTCfacebook ... and im coming from a Blackberry world where they do is great ... we get Yetis rom syncing contacts with facebook and its the best... i love vanilla android ... i have no clue why companies want to overlay there bloatware on top ... ie HTC Sense and MotoBlur
The syncing worked great on my motodroid. The thing is that the version of facebook available for download on market for incredible is downloading on top of HTCFacebook, so in essence you are really using both (this in stock incredible). I'm sure as more roms become available, since we are in early stages of custom roms, that this will be addressed.
There is a tutorial on how to fix this at droidsp0t.com

That tutorial is for yager rom which still has alot of sense on it and i would imagine those steps would work for most of the roms out there that still have sense i actually tried doing that with Yeti's rom and it caused a boot loop ... im talking about trying to get facebook to sync properly with "vanilla" android ie no sense at all
I am using virtuous but would would love to get my stock calendar and lockscreen back. How do I do this? If I have a backup of my stock ROM can I extract the .apk's and push them to my phone?
if you push the old calender apk it should work fine.
as for the old lockscreen you can get it by renaming:
/system/app/com.htc.lockscreen.apk
to com.htc.lockscreen.apk.OFF
note: this will cause a glitch with the HTC Clock so be sure to push the stock clock as well.
Theres also a patched HTC Clock thats fixed if you'd like to continue using it. I've attached it here.
I'm sorry to post here, because i dont have the right to post at dev forum.
I flashed pays-rom 2.1, and use Jorte . i just want to synchronize Jorte with my google calendar, but when i set the jorte , it always report error and crash when i open the calendar setting.
i recovery BlurCalendar.apk , BlurCalendarProvider.apk and CalendarSync.apk , and i fix that.
so, i want to know what other original apks cannot be removed?
If you want to be able add new events in the stock calendar, you'll also need the BlurEmailEngine.apk. those are the 4 apks you'll need to get the stock calendar fully working (I prefer it to jorte). I haven't found any others missing as of the v2.2 rom
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App
Thank you for that information. Just for everybody else looking for this information, extract these files from the extra blur addon package that Pays publishes. Then you can put these files back in /system/app, for example with a short batch file. Then reboot, and you will have the stock calendar back.
Although the calendar is now working again, unfortunately my Android Agenda Widget isn't (others are working just fine).
Anybody any idea how to restore that functionality? Thanks in advance.
hi all
i have a copy of the ICS phone and contacts apk's from here
BUT i'm not able install the apk's as the installer complains that there is a apk with the same name....
i've looked in /system/app and can;t see phone.apk or contacts.apk anywhere.
Can anyone please assist ?
Did you ever figure this out? I would like to keep my stock touchwiz rom with the multiwindow feature, but I would much prefer, the vanilla ics/jb phone and contacts app.
hi there forum users,i am new here at this forum,I searched the internet especially this forum but i could not find the HTC One X calculator widget (the old one) before the 4+ sense update you know the calculator widget that has 4 different skins not like the 2 calculator skins (wooden and white marble kind of )
i have a non-rooted HTC One X android 4.1.1 sense 4+
if someone can guide me how to find this old apk file(i think the apk file should be re-signed so that it can be installed properly to a non-rooted device) that would be much appreciated.
thanks.

If you find it, I don't think you can install it on a non-rooted device, cause the Calculator.apk (and CalculatorWidget.apk) is in system\app, and cannot be overwritten on non-rooted devices.
But you could try to find an old Sense 4 ROM here on the forum and extract the apk's from the zip-file.

i already found a htc calculator widget apk and installed it by only pressing install ,the apk is working but it's been made for htc desire X and the widget is working but on homescreen it looks pretty small more than half size of the original wooden or marble calculator skin and i asked the creator-uploader of the widget and he replied that my post is in the wrong place (i already posted on HTC ONE X+ questions)so i posted here again.
here is the original thread about this widget that i found earlier.

apk. is re-signed so that it can work on non rooted devices as the creator also mentions
