I'm thinking it was a HTC server error somewhere. I just checked feeds again, and all is working properly.

I'm glad that others are having this problem. I just picked up an S6 yesterday and noticed Blinkfeed has been acting up and spent the last couple hours trying to get it to work.

Downloading themes suddenly not work anymore.Please sign to HTC Account...
[Android Apps and Games] Beefheart:
I've tried this thing 2-3 times now and themes have never worked. I always end up back on Nova as a result as choosing icon names and icon packs is too important for me. However, I do like the Blinkfeed page so I have set that up as a activity from Nova on a double home button press. Best of both worlds.

Are you the thread police? Everytime I read something from you it is the same thing. This is not a no noob community. We all started somewhere. and belive it or not we are not all the same. Emmediatly drawing the same conclusions, thinking like you. But we can learn if we dont get scared off. We are dealing with a generation that.. If it takes more then two minutes then screw it. And tecnologi made that to them. (Sorry for bad english.)
[Android Apps and Games] Hgneto:
Agreed, but I think the widget home/work/out is pretty useful.

Actually, if you'd read the stickies and threads that you're told to when you become a member on XDA, you'd know these things :)
[Android Apps and Games] RP-88:
Are you? Because now you are doing exactly what you are *****ing about. And honestly, there does not appear to be any "thread police" (aka moderation ) of any kind here.

Really? Because that statement alone tells me that you do not read the thread, because you do not read many of my posts.

Is any community "no noob"? That is just an idiotic statement.

Your absolutely right and if you don't get people to learn to help themselves then we, as a community, will never get anywhere.

Thinking like me? Oh you mean offering some help with obscure issues but not catering to the simply lazy who can't... no,

won't

read a single post in the thread before begging for someone to do it for them?

Where in that post did I attempt to scare anyone off? I responded to a post quoting my prior one in which I addressed a couple issues that, at the time, had been recently brought up. I also told them that the fix was there. What I do not do was further enable them by handing them answers in a way that required no work or research on their part. By not simply giving them the answer, it offers them the chance to learn to help themselves and ultimately, become productive and contributing members of the community.

There is so much right and yet very wrong with that statement. So your solution to this generations laziness is to "do it for them"? How is this a solution and how can this possibly get better when you advocate this behavior? They are not using "tech" to get answers here, they are expecting everyone else to hand over anything and everything they ask for, without putting fourth one ounce of effort on their part.

Once again, if people would put forth just a little effort, they could find the solutions they are looking for, or perhaps just find out that there is no solution at this time. All of this could be accomplished without reliance on others for simple things. I have no problem with people asking for help or anyone helping others, myself included, with issues that are not easily solved, are actually difficult to find or not easily understood. The issue I have is when it is obvious that zero attempts have been made by someone before they expect others to help. There are countless posts here where people default to asking a question without bothering to read any posts, including xpirts first posts which are absolute must reads for anyone wanting to use this mod. Many of these people do not even read recent posts, including the ones on the very same page on which they posted themselves.

Going back to your statement of "We are dealing with a generation that.. If it takes more then two minutes then screw it" If you do not encourage, or if need be, make people learn to do it for themselves, then it will never change and things will never get better. From an internet forum perspective, I know that this works first hand. It can be frustrating at first and yes, it pisses some off, but it works. But over time you end up with a better, more helpful and cooperative community. Those who are scared off or offended by others not handing everything to them, are usually ones who would not have stuck around anyway.

icon badges unread count

Solved this problem using this great app

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=co.uk.cornwall_solutions.notifyer&hl=en

now you can have unread counts for any app using the HTC blinkfeed launcher
[Android Apps and Games] RP-88:
Great find for stock app icons :good:

Now to figure out if the is a way to make it work with shortcut icons, such as this created by Awesome Icons. (No luck so far)
[Android Apps and Games] BouncingObject:
BlinkFeed is only apart of the Sense launcher. It cannot be separated into it's own separate entity to be used else where.
[Android Apps and Games] anthonyalessi74:
No but you can use QuickShortcutMaker to add it as an app icon, then launch it from TouchWiz. If you set TW to default on your home key, and make BF a single screen then it acts like an app.;)

EDIT:: Nexus 6 Chroma 5.1.1
[Android Apps and Games] lancespahr:
That's just part of the sense home launcher
[Android Apps and Games] roidsmith:
That is very unfortunate. I am very much an aesthetics guy and that is a deal breaker, lol. Great job on the port. however. I remember when Sense 6 was just ported with a lot of limitations and now Sense 7 is fully functional! I may use it (I love Blinkfeed).

Same requirements in 2 devices,, but it just working in one of them

Me and my brother we all have the same device (galaxy note 2 n7100)

And we all installed the same rom (slimkat 4.4.4 official v9)

But the blinkfeed work in his device and didn't work in my :crying:

So I flashed more than one rom to found a rom make the blinkfeed work...

But it just work in some lollipop roms (like hazy rom).

Now I back to my old rom (cuz i feel more comfortable with it)

And hope if you can help me with this.

I only see this shade when I use a custom dpi that is not the right for BlinkFeed.

E.g. blinkfeed needs 320 dpi for my device.

Can you place widgets all over the screen or do you have free space on the right? Then you would know if it's dpi issue.
[Android Apps and Games] BouncingObject:
There's nothing in this statement that gives anyone here information as to what isn't working.

What isn't working?

Have you read the OP and the FAQ?

Have you searched the thread for other people experiencing the same issue as you?

A little bit of leg work goes a long way....
[Android Apps and Games] jmitr:
No it is not.

I do not have that on any of my HTC devices (see signature)

Edit: screenshot of M7 added
[Android Apps and Games] lancespahr:
Hmm.. My apologies, I thought it was. That is in place for the on screen buttons (m8/9) so I guess it shows up since this was based off a device with on-screen buttons
[Android Apps and Games] roidsmith:
The default DPI for my phone is 560. If you are referring to the widget itself, yes there is free space on the right.
[Android Apps and Games] cappuccina:
ah yes i should have read better. I think I have read here that for Nexus 6 the dpi should be 532 for blinkfeed to show up right. then this shade would be gone also.
[Android Apps and Games] roidsmith:
Thanks, it worked! Now I am using this over Apex.
[Android Apps and Games] Jorlin:
Installed it on my Symsung Galaxy S6 edge.

Works just as on my M7.

The only issue:

How can I make the 2x1 weather widget transparent? :confused: (it was on my M7)

Also: Is there a way to show numbers of new items on the icons as in trouch wiz (like x new emails?)?
[Android Apps and Games] jmitr:
Nope, my son's M8 is the same way. Onscreen buttons are under the dock.
[Android Apps and Games] lancespahr:
Yes I know, but the onscreen buttons have that shade on them.

Do you know maybe correct DPI for nexus 5? I search all over the thread but I found only for nexus 4 and 6...

N5 powered by Euphoria
[Android Apps and Games] cappuccina:
no sorry, looked also and couldn't find it, and I don't have Nexus 5. But I'm sure there is anybody who is so kind to tell you. :good:
[Android Apps and Games] jmitr:
Gotcha, but the shading on the M8 is very narrow and covers the entire bottom of the screen. It is also "graded" very well to the point of being unnoticeable.

The shading that member experiments looked like an old Gingerbread dock that only covered part of the bottom. I believe it is a "leftover" from his stock device.
[Android Apps and Games] lancespahr:
The reason is, the launcher is made for certain DPI devices, and will not work with other dpis correctly (visual issues)

First of all Thanks for your amazing work.

It's working great on HOX with lollipop.

Switched to sense rom with android 4.2.2 and tried to install.

As, I think, you already know there is FC's when opening apps and no feed loading.

They don't show up in the left menu either.

I'm not an expert with logcats. I installed catlog and I hope there is something usefull to see.

The workaround on op working for me.. Many thanks.

Just one problem for me, that the weather app was slowly I think.

The real situation was different from what on the blinkfeed. Try to open the accuweather that the blinkfeed using for weather services. And they're different.

So the weather service was bad to use.

Any ideas to solve this??

Thanks in advance

Mega Icon Packs [ROOT REQURIED]

I have converted some icon packs from the Playstore for the Sense-Launcher. It contains ALL icons and not just the few that you can change with HTCs Theme Maker. This change is only temporary, if you change your theme or icon pack, then you will need to replace the icons.apk file again.

I added some pictures of icon packs with the sense launcher below.(not all icon packs are included here as some are paid)

#How to Apply [Root Required]#

1. Select one of the icon packs and copy the Icons.apk to: /data/data/com.htc.launcher/files/.htc_theme/

Replace existing Icons.apk if asked.

3. Restart Sense Launcher process or reboot phone.

or

If someone wants my script that converts the icon packs from playstore to sense launcher, then let me know. You will need to know how to use apktool to unpack/decompile, build and sign apk files.

You can also just request an icon pack, i will post it here.(Only free ones, for paid ones please send PM)

Anyway to get widgets to work on other launchers?
[Android Apps and Games] Dondep:
Let me know if you figure out how to get it to move off those start pages and load automatically; I've had this problem since the beginning and so have a few other people. The last we heard xpirit is still working on it. I check in now and again to see if anything has changed, and downloaded the latest apk version, even tried the process detailed by someone here on how to get themes to work (install the official Sense apk at first, then uninstall and install xpirit's Sense apk), but nothing seems to work. I even tried the recommended method of uninstalling all my apps, which I did a handful at a time, but nada. Now I can't even get the clock and weather widget on my blinkfeed page since installing the 4/22 updated apk for Sense on the OP.

My next step is to try the Sense 6 apk's. If I can get that to work, so I have the news feeds, I'd be happy.

I have heard that HTC put out a "Security Update" for Sense last month, that might have something to do with it, but I still think it's probably something to do with former HTC owners, or some kind of security thing. I talked to Level III at Motorola about the issue of 3rd-party apps not syncing under "Accounts", as The Guardian (another news aggregator like Blinkfeed) won't sync either, even after manually trying to set the two apps, and they're trying to 'reach out' to Google engineers to find out if there's a protocol that's controlling certain customers' Nexus 6 phones from automatically syncing.(The tech I talked to downloaded and then tried to sync The Guardian on his own N6 and had the same issue, so they're mystified.) You don't have a Nexus 6 but still the same problem, so I'm thinking former HTC owners, but I even set up a new HTC account and tried logging in with that and still, same problem. Hell, I can't even get a decent logcat on this phone!! Ain't that some sh*t?!

I'd say to keep checking this thread; I read the whole thing in order to find out a solution, way back when I first got this phone, and apparently there's no fix yet. xpirit's still working on it. meanwhile, if you do manage to get yours to work - withOUT rooting - please let the rest of us know.
