[Q] HTC Desire - Market Problem

Hi All,
I would need your help in case of Market application.
I have following problem:
- I cannot start Market, because when I try it I receive a warning message: "The linked program is no longer installed on your phone". This message appeared suddenly for one day to the another. The icon and its name were changed on the screen (com.android....). I didn't modify anything, and for some days I haven't been on the Market... The system is original android 2.2, and it's not modified (ROM,etc.).
My question: What can be the reason of this problem? And how can I reinstall this application or what should I do with it?
Thanks for the feedback and the help in advance!

Uninstall the market application under applications. Then download market and install it again:
New 3.0 market
Old 2.3.6 Market
It's your decision which you use.

Go for the new!!! Its much better

Thanx a lot Guys...

Awesome, mate, I was about to start a thread asking where I could find this!
Looks nice, but I'm terribly confused! I'll get used to it, though!

The only bad thing is that the new one is more graphics rich... so takes longer to load especially on data connection not wifi!!!

[Q] Installed Facebook, now can't find it (?)

Hi!
m.facebook offered me to install Facebook app.
I have installed it, but it said that I have to install the signed version, so my phone stop asking for permissions. that also went well.
When I installed it, it offered me to start the app. It worked well.
Now I wanted to run the app again, but I cannot find it anywhere. It is not on the app list, it is not in program files, not listed on remove programs list, not on the storage card...
When I tried to install it again, it said that it is already installed...
What could I do more to find where it is?
Thank you in advance!

try with Facebook Tab v1.6 (+192xPatch) ~ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=651007

Thank you for your reply! I will try it.
But still I don't understand how is it possible that a program which worked normally when started first time cannot be found anywhere on the device?
It must be somewhere ?
Any similar experience with "invisible" installed program?
tnx

another idea would be to use XDA winmo facebook instead of the official app.
the official app is hardly more than the mobile version of the site with added image upload availability, while XDA winmo facebook is more similar to android's or ios's facebook app and can handle requests and places...
it can be found here:
http://code.google.com/p/xda-winmo-facebook/downloads/list

A good referrals Chef

Thanx for the answer!

You say "thanx for the answer", but you haven't had it! That official FB app is a Java app, and you will need to run the Java program, then select it from the list.
Cheers

[Q] Pls help me with TeamViewer QS Add-on for HTC

Hello,
I'm looking for TeamViewer's QuickSupport (QS) Add-on for HTC devices. Unforunately I can't access Google Play to download it (to see it for yourself, look for com.teamviewer.quicksupport.addon.htc)
Does anyone know where else I can find it from a reliable source, not a random site that might have repackaged it?
Or, could someone who has the APK file tell me who signed theirs, and then I can determine if the copy I downloaded from a shady site is legitimate?
Or, someone with the APK file could post its size in bytes, and I could use that to verify the one I downloaded,
Or, does anyone know if the Samsung version will work on HTC phones? I can get the Samsung version directly from TeamViewer's website (but not the HTC version).
For those wondering what exactly this is: I have the main TeamViewer QuickSupport app installed. It does not include screen-sharing; to do that, I need the add-on. Also, for the record, TeamViewer support says the addon is available only in Europe.
Many thanks in advance!
P.S. I posted this question in another forum, but it got zero responses and is now on the fifth page. That forum was general Android Q&A and dev, so I thought an HTC forum might be a better choice. I'm new to XDA-Developers; I hope it's ok to re-post someplace else.

For anyone who encounters this situation in the future, here is my experience. The short version: I couldn't confirm the APK I downloaded was the authentic HTC add-on, but I installed it, it works, and I see no signs of malware (though malware still could be there).
---------
Here's the long version:
NOTE: To make any of the links below work, you'll need to remove the extra space I inserted. The forum software won't let me post links.
The phone
- HTC
- Model: Remix (Verizon's version of fthe Mini 2), though I doubt the model matters much
- Android v4.4.2, as provided by HTC
- Not rooted
1) I tried the QS Add-on for Samsung (even though I'm using an HTC phone), which I could download directly from TeamViewer.com (see link below). It installed, App Manager saw it, but TeamViewer QuickSupport (TVQS) did not utilize it.
Link to the Samsung add-on at teamviewer.com:
download.teamviewer. com/download/QuickSupport_Add-On_Samsung.apk
TVQS's Advanced screen still displayed the option to download and install the add-on (which requires a Google Play account AFAICT)
I saw these messages in TVQS's log (accessible via the Advanced screen). I could have overlooked other messages:
I/RcAddonInfo.isAddonInstalled(): name not found
I/MainActivity.onCreate(): installable addon found and not installed​
The Samsung add-on's version number was 8.x; TVQS's is 10.x and the HTC add-on's is 9.x, so perhaps it's a simple version incompatibility.
2) I downloaded the APK for QS Add-on for HTC, but from a website which gave me no idea of its integrity (i.e., maybe it was repackaged with malware). Here are two sources I found, which appeared to be the same file:
oppo.apk. vc/Android/App/com.teamviewer.quicksupport.addon.htc
apk4fun.m5f. net/download-sv1/com.teamviewer.quicksupport.addon.htc.html
3) I tried to verify the APK's integrity by comparing it to the one from Google Play. I didn't have the Google Play APK, so I used the information on the webpage.
Google Play link: play.google. com/store/apps/details?id=com.teamviewer.quicksupport.addon.htc
The version numbers (9.0.2045) and release dates (26 Aug 2014) were the same at Google and at the websites of the APK downloads.
Google Play website reported size: 128K; Downloaded APK size: 128K (131,252 bytes)
4) I tried to verify the APK's integrity by looking at the cert used to sign it. I didn't see any red flags, but nothing confirmed HTC as the signer:
The cert (in all APK's, AFAIK) is found here: /meta-inf/cert.rsa
I didn't have a tool to view the cert info, so I opened the file in a hex editor and extracted these strings:
TW1
Taoyuan1
Android1
android @htc.com​
HTC is headquartered in Taoyuan, Taiwan, so there is nothing suspicious in those strings, but they certainly don't confirm authenticity. I don't think they would be hard to spoof.
For comparison, I did the same with the Samsung add-on. They match the questionable HTC APK in that the phone manufacturer and not TeamViewer signed that APK; on the other hand the Samsung signature mentions Samsung by name while the questionable HTC APK does not mention HTC.
KR1
South Korea1
Suwon City1
Samsung Corporation1
DMC1
Samsung Cert1
android.os @samsung.com​
* FWIW I also found this in TVQS's log, I think from its startup routine (to be clear, the following is for the TVQS app and not for any add-on AFAICT). The APK for the TVQS is signed by TeamViewer; perhaps this is HTC's signature for the Android distribution? Then where is HTC mentioned? If it's Google's signature, why is the location HTC's headquarters (Taoyuan, Taiwan)?
CN = Android
OU = Android
O = Android
L = Taoyuan
ST = Taoyuan
C = TW​
5) Not seeing any red flags and not having other options, I installed the questionable HTC APK. It works fine and I see no signs of malware, though certainly malware could be hidden or the signs might not have appeared (I installed it only a few hours ago).

Search Google, many sites with the APK file (QS Add-On: HTC APK). I have installed, it works.

Chinese HTC 10, convert to an english/swedish android software?

Hey guys!
I have bought my HTC 10 in China, I have changed the language to english, however the phone is for the chinese market and therefore I can't download instagram, google, google play service, instagram etc...
It is a big problem for me, the "playstore" is in chinese and only chinese apps. So do anyone of you know how to change the OS to non-chinese software? I managed to download Facebook and other apps but it requires "google play service" and even with it error messages pops up. The phone denies me from downloading many stuffs that I used to have from my last HTC (swedish andoird version).
Thanks a lot!

You could unlock, S-OFF and follow my guide to convert to a real WWE version (see my sig for link). Both unlock as S-OFF are needed, as the CID and - maybe - MID has to be changed during this process.

I was thinking to buy the Chinese version just because it did not have Facebook installed in it. Great for privacy reasons

You don't have to do that. Just buy an International varient and uninstall/disable facebook or any app you don't want. (Or go further unlocking the bootloader)

The disable feature is pathetic. It can only be disabled for a reason. It does not actually get disabled. You must be joking if you believe the disable feature actually works. Think about it... Why did they remove the uninstall option...?

HTC 10 Lifestyle Taiwan (Chinese versions) ROM and S-OFF and root
Hello guys,
I have the HTC 10 Lifestyle Chinese version (Snapdragon 652). I managed to unlock the bootloader but I can't get to do the S-OFF. Anyone knows how? I have tried many apps but it won't work. I tried to root but it refused. I tried to flash the ROM as well, so that I install custom ROM but it is not possible. It says it can't flash ROM when S-ON. I have done this successfully with my previous OneM8 but this one is tricky.Please any genius on this come to my rescue. I need to root so that I remove some two bloatware apps and also change to a ROM I like. Thanks in advance!

U have to unlock the bootloader as the first step
Check htcdev.com
Then install the latest twpr recovery that u can find over the web
Recovery is flashed via fastboot
"Fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img"
After flashing recovery you will be free to flash any rom
Enjoy

HTC 10 Lifestyle Taiwan (Chinese versions) ROM and S-OFF and root
I did unlock the bootloader however whenever I try to flash using twrp, I get a message saying it cannot flash when S-ON. So the real challenge now is to S-OFF this phone. Any leads will be appreciated.

Does anyone have any solution to this problem?

You theory is interesting but not true. Facebook cannot be uninstalled because Facebook pays all the phone company to make Facebook installed by default. So you can only disable it. And it does work.
If you are super suspicious about this, you can use adb code or other monitor apps to check if facebook app or related service is running or not after disabling it.

That is false Facebook app permissions have permission to toggle off/on just about everything. You can check your browser cache history and still see that you have Facebook in there even though you have not used Facebook or logged onto Facebook. Your contacts from your emails and contact book will be recommended to you to add on Facebook as various people from your contact list that you have not added will start popping up on your Facebook asking you if you want to add them. You do not know enough about the evil practices of Facebook.

Interesting enough, I've never run into things like you said. The only evil does that on my device, is Taobao (Alibaba).

Solved: OneNote for Windows 10 Can't Launch

Good day!
Can someone help me to use One Note in my phone? I really need this app.
When I open it, it's just redirecting to the Store and Store will say "This Product is installed." then it will exit.
I updated the OS from .107 to .1066 . Do I need to update again the firmware?
Is there a trick like deleting cache folder of the app or any update patch like .xap or appx bundle?
Can someone verify that One Note app is still working as of now?
Thank you...

So after searching...I found this site which a tutorial for downloading offline app.
How to Download APPX File from Microsoft Store for Offline Installation? | Windows OS Hub
New Universal Windows Platform apps (.Appx/.AppxBundle) on Windows 10 are usually installed online through the Microsoft Store. Despite Windows allows to install universal apps from the appx file (sideload), you…
woshub.com
so for Lumia 530 which is ARM,
I downloaded the latest version of appx of the main app folder and VCLibs.
my question is do I also need to download the neutral folder which is 200mb+ in size?

Also, how to install .Emsixbundle to Windows Phone? I'm trying this with Calculator app.

so I found out that I just need to go through the update page of the apps in Store locating in the upper right part icon.
And now my problem is solved.
Thank you!
