is there an app for the desire that turns the flash into a torch???
thanks
+1 for such an app like on the HTC HD2
Not come acroos an app that utilises the flash as a torch. There is this free app, which I think may work with Android 2.1 except that it will only illuminate the screen, and not the LEDs: http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-android-flashlight-zAA.aspx
there is already one for the HD2 called HTC Flashlight! Normally installed already in the programs list (don't know about these new T Mobile ones in USA though)
no there isn't one that works on Android marketplace yet for the Desire but one will appear within a month so not long.
yes there is one, i dont quite remember the name of the app but it will only appear in the marketplace if you are rooted.
but root isn't available for the desire yet so there still isnt one that works!
I've found it in the market, I can't remember the name but just search for flash light and you should find it.
The description says it works on Motorola Droid but not on Nexus One, so there is a good chance that it won't work on HTC Desire either...
Hi,
I got my One X last week and have been playing with it this week and one thing that annoys me is that when your on the internet and then open another tab and then go back to the first one it refshes and is very annoying when filling in a form or something.
Also it keeps coming up with Authorise HTC Sense - to authorisr faceboon and when I click it, it says turn on background sync but doesnt do anything as far as I know everything is logged in and ready but not sure.
Hope one if you guys can help
Thanks
Stock sense browser is rubbish, use third party browser like 'Dolphin Browser'

I just installed the GPE on my HTC One M8 and I noticed a bug, it's a minor one but it's kind of annoying. In the Play Store, I can't swipe my left screen to access ''Store home'' ''My apps'' and etc... I have to keep touching that back button until I get to the store's home. Any idea on how to fix this?
thanks
Never got that
Is it a stock gpe ROM or modified

Hi there!
As far as U have seen, HTC 10 is a hyge hardware device but it comes with only standard Google apps pre-installed. So HTC Sense interface is basically disappeared from the phone.
Considering how much better HTC apps are compared to Google standard apps, it's a huge shame having such a great phone on hardware level running on standard google base system. People have always had hate for custom interface but they don't know what are they saying if they consider everything as a third-party apps, the evil. There are 2 different situations, one thing is customisation of network operator which install useless and buggy application, another thing is manufacturer applications, which in the case of HTC, have always been better than the standard Google applications since the beginning of android. So having no HTC apps on the sense 8 is a great loss. My question is: it will still possible to install all HTC apps on the play store of sense interface on the new sense 8?
By the way I have an HTC One M9+ Supreme Camera and I'm currenlty on sense 7 and android 5, well if sense 8 will be with google standard apps only, I hope that the update to Android 6.0 for my device will keep sense 7.0 interface. I want to use HTC apps.
I think this is a welcomed change. Simpler, faster updates, faster phone... But I do think I saw somewhere that you could install the applications from the play store. Worst case just port them over, there are so many mods that allows you to port to other phones I bet it would be easy to move it over to the 10.

I think that if you go looking to the quality of HTC apps compared to standard google apps, there is no match. If someone want a standard and free Android interface, then buy a nexus phone which is excellent. If I buy an HTC, I want a customized Android experience, at least this is my opinion. Having to struggle with MOD it's second hand option and also if HTC won't develop its apps in the future it would be impossible to do.

That's your opinion, I see very little to no difference. If this is a deal breaker for you, protest... and buy from LG or samsung. I find the google versions are more than adequate for all I need. I love that more manufacturers are going to this style, faster updates and a more streamline approach. They can add their best features to the device and keep it fast. Give it time before you protest them, you may like the change. If not you have 14 days
Well, on HTC One M8 running HTC 10 ported ROM I could easily download all the missing HTC apps from the Play Store. So, no actual difference from Sense 7 roms.
Maybe on the real HTC 10 your experience will be different.
you know if you have the apks of the older apps you can still install them right?

I suppose that it depends...if the apps has been ported to the current version of Android... and this is something that HTC have to do.

Yes it's my opinin but I still think that if you want standard google interface you can buy a Nexus or maybe HTC can realese the Google edition phone like it did in the past.
By the way I have recently swtich from an HTC One S with sense 4 to an HTC One M9+ Supreme Camera and sense 7 (also blinkfeed is nice) but I do miss some widgets from HTC (like gallery widget, bookmark widget and colored meteo widget).

It was a business decision and sadly if you hate it then you'll have to keep you M9 or buy something else. Some of us are excited about it and who knows you may grow to love it. Or maybe they will regret it and put it back in an update.
As far as some reviews said it will still be possible to download all HTC Apps from PlayStore and thus install them on the new HTC 10. In fact it is wrong that they are better than the respective Google Apps, as they are just GUI modded Google Apps.
Only App I wouldn't download is HTC Gallery App, as I read that it interferes with the new HTC Camera App, as the later one has been optimized to work with Google Pictures App.

I don't understand people sometimes. This information has been a talking point of almost every general review of the new phone. It took OP longer to ask here and wait for an answer then to just Google it! Save yourself some time and Google it first.

Google Photos, in my opinion, is only good for photo editing. A standalone gallery is sorely missing from Android. Hell, I still use a pre-CM owned version of QuickPic instead of Google Photos.
Hello, may be a silly pointless question but it's annoying me already. The past 4-5 phones I've had never had this problem only when using the HTC10.
So what it is when I'm looking through a facebook photo album I can't seem to swipe through the photos properly I have to swipe right from the edge of the screen to move to the next photo. Has any one else noticed this? thanks

Yes it does this, but that's not a HTC issue. It is a Facebook issue.

Strange can't be that. It doesn't do it on my missus s7 or my old Moto X Style or my OPO. Only the HTC 10.
All I could think is the pre-installed facebook is different. May have to root and remove. Plus cannot get on with this stock TouchPal keyboard. Lol.

Yeah Facebook is the only app I have that has this issue swiping right or left in.
What version is your Facebook app? I uninstalled updates after one of the recent ones started crashing. I'm back on 80.0.0.21.65 (the one that downloads and installs when you click the app icon for the first time) and have no issues swiping through albums.
The newest version in play store is 81.0.0.22.70
Hi guys. I am having the same problem and it is driving me nuts. I have the lastest Fb version, i tried to delete it but it demands me to update the app every single time. Swiping only works from the bezzel to the middle.
Has anyone figured out how to fix this problem??
I had this issue on LG G5, Xperia Z5, S7 and HTC 10. Facebook issue definitely. Cannot see how to fix it.
for me its fixed now
