[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJDuckett:
Firstly, I'm running the rooted stock rom (OTA 1.45..). I don't know if this has been a problem SINCE I've rooted, as I don't go on facebook much, but, one of my friends, I just dded her on facebook the other day, and then noticed that it wouldn't let me link her fb account on her contact card because her fb account wasn't present in my contacts.

Anyways, whenever I try to refresh my facebook contacts, it takkes me back to the "online directories" screen with a message that says CONNECTION ERROR.

I can login to my fb just fine and things like my friendstream and the facebook app itself are ok, but, my contacts will not update at all.

Is there a file I'm supposed to flash, or what? Any help would be appreciated.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redrazr7791:
This has been discussed here and everywhere else ;)

As of right now, their seems to be a problem with the Facebook servers. You can log into Facebook for HTC Sense fine, but it will show that you have "no friends". When you attempt to refresh, it will just load up and then exit out of the program with the "connection failed" error.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJDuckett:
Sorry. I've seen discussions about it, but with so many different RoMs out, I wanted to make sure it was system wide rather than one or two in-particular. Thank you though.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] splink7007:
weird, when I try to add facebook for sense to my accounts sync, it says warning the service is curently unavailable. do you want to try again? and never works.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MCL1981:
Nothing new. It's been broken for over a week. It has nothing to do with being rooted.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jye75:
This is the first I've heard of Facebook not working... mine has been working with no problems whatsoever. (and I'm constantly on it, refreshing all of the time) Maybe it's not as widespread as some people think?:confused:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redrazr7791:
Facebook for Android works.

Facebook for Sense is not working.

Two different things that people are getting confused. It has been down since last week. It has nothing to do with ROOT or NONROOTED phones, it has to do with Facebook's connection or server hence the "connection error" that is displayed when you try to refresh your contacts.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TommyNY:
I'm going to take a look at logcat when I can but it doesn't seem to be a connection issue (at least with authentication). Deliberately enter the wrong password and you'll see.

An issue with Facebook none the less.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJDuckett:
... and it sucks.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redrazr7791:
Exactly. You can log in successfully, but when it comes to getting your contacts between Facebook servers and your phone, it isn't working. Somewhere there is a disruption between the 2. Androidforums.com has been on this for a while and even the HTC.com forums have had people talking about it.

From what someone mentioned, this happened to the iPhone a few weeks ago and was successfully fixed ASAP...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJDuckett:
Soooo, basically, we're just waiting for it to fix itself?

... ugh.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jye75:
I'm sure this issue will be fixed ASAP (As Soon As Possible) too, rather than just sitting around twiddling their thumbs...:D

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kapiladhanvi:
Hi All,

One thing that has consistently irritated me about the new SenseUI is what I see as an inconsistent "Back" button in the contact app to exit the application! It goes completely against the general established way in winmo devices to exit an application. The general practice in the windows world to use the 'x' at the top to come out of an application. That is just plain intuitive when using a winmo device.

In the SenseUI contacts app, there is no 'X' at the top right corner !! why?? However bad and dated the UI is of windows is, going against the general UI rules of the OS makes using an app even more confusing and plain frustrating.. Especially for the contact app which is one of the more (if not most) heavily used app if not the most.

Also all the ROMs seem to continue that same philosophy.. why is that ??

Is it only me that sees this as inconsistent and counter intuitive ?

On my phone the 2nd HARDWARE button from the right goes back to the home screen.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kapiladhanvi:
Sorry I wasnt clear in my original post. I was talking about the soft buttons in the UI. The "back" button in the lower left corner of the contact application - the application where you can browse through your contacts.

The "back" button there goes back to the previous screen you were on. This becomes more of a problem when I have to go back to the home screen or some other screen after or during a call. for e.g. after a call, if I started the call from the contacts app, I am dropped back on the detail page of the contact . no wi have to click back twice or more time ( if I started from the call history page) to come back to the home screen..

This I think is a waste of time.. A simple 'x' button at the top should allow me to exit the application and come back to the home screen..

Dhanvi

PS: All buttons I speak of are soft UI buttons and not the h/w buttons on the phone.

Below is the attached framework-res.apk to flash a black bar and a black notification window (transparent) on your cm 6.0.0 ds rc2 that was just released couple of hours ago :D

if you are just fine with a colored black status, you can change the color under *note that this method will not change the color of your notification window

Menu > Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > User Interface > Notifications Color > Custom Notification Bar

if you still want a transparent black notification window please proceed with the flashing.

I take no credit for skinning this this is just a simple black bar to replace the white one.

thanks to firerat for pulling it, also big ups to cyanogen and his team for cm

instructions:

boot to recovery

adb remount
adb push /framework-res.apk \system\framework\

Don't forget to change status bar text color!

note* has been relocated from "spare parts" to

menu> settings> cyanogenmod settings> user interface
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] tehseano:
Not to rain on your parade mate, but this is an option inside of CM now.

If you goto:

Menu > Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > User Interface > Notifications Color > Custom Notification Bar

You can now select your status bar to be any color you desire. Less work for you :)
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] _ice_:
wtf I seriously didn't notice that lmfao.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] _ice_:
Actually it changes the bar color. not the window. Maybe I should rename this to "black status window"
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] tehseano:
Don't feel bad, it was added shortly after the release of RC1, it's been included in all the experimental builds (well most of them).

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] rsfaze:
I don't see why not.. but I'm not theme artist.

I've been able to use MetaMorph to change my status bar
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] junkdruggler:
Use the system dump that wes posted in the development section... it has every image in the phone... Just drag and drop...
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Shagman68:
Is that using Odin?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] junkdruggler:
Nowhere in my post did it say odin.... I said to download the system dump... Extract everything and start drag and dropping... Do you know hire to use MM? Thats kinda essential...
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Shagman68:
Is MM an acronym for something, or is that its name? I used to theme my G1 b4 Android 1.6 came out and never heard of MM.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] kelmerp:
He's talking about MetaMorph.

Nope, don't know how to use MetaMorph. But I bet I can learn it this weekend. hope to have a rough Harley Theme up in a week or so.
[Droid X General] mdhaliwal:
Is there an option that can set a different screen timeout parameter when the phone is plugged in vs when it is on battery? I'm coming from a windows mobile phone and loved to be able to have my phone screen on at night while plugged in so i could find it easier :)
[Droid X General] rolandroland:
Not sure, but if you decide to pickup a desk/hdmi dock the screen will not timeout on it. You have to shut it off. And there is a night mode which is extremely dim, almost like a night light, and the screen can be read if your face is right on front of it.
[Droid X General] mdhaliwal:
Hey I got some help from people on HowardForums (Humpa) but anyways the setting is under settings>applications>development...kind of a weird place to hide something like this. Hope this helps others.

See, this is how the internet works.

Bozo #1 basically trolls or skews some information, blogs it

Random people find it and quote it

Other bloggers find it and quote it

It gets spread in random directions, most not attributed to the original Bozo #1

Bozo #1 finds blogs/tweets/etc "validating" his information and probably blogs such

Other random people quote that his results are lining up with other's opinions..

It's a circle of hell.

"While Google’s own Android-based Nexus One phone has been canceled due to lack of interest"

That totally discredits the author completely.
[Nexus One General] DarkDvr:
No need to get upset =)

Personally, I find it quite funny.

Let them yell, Android is moving ahead in gigantic steps, and nothing can stop its business model. No-licence, 100%-customizable, manufacturer-indifferent, platform-independant, open-source software will always win. It's the law of the universe. You can't stop progress.

Think about it. It's Steve Jobs (as a sole manufacturer and distributor of iOS) VERSUS an entire WORLD of hardware manufacturers and software engineers. You can't win. Apple cannot possible have enough ideas or innovation to beat the whole planet.

So.. sit back, laugh and watch it unravel. It'll be a good story with a good moral for your kids.

"Thanks to the omnipresent green robot, Verizon reported a stronger second quarter earnings report than expected by analysts. The carrier added 665,000 net new contract customers in the period, topping AT&T's net addition of 496,000 contract signing customers despite the latter's launch of the iPhone 4 on June 24th. "

From both phonearena and bloomberg.

exactly. its funny we have a quote from a verizon preson saying they did not cancel the nexus one, that they wanted it, but that it was google that cancelled it on them.

Hi guys,

I have upgraded my Desire to [ROM] Pays-ROM Desire Froyo Sense v1.3 A2SD+ with Addon Packages [25th July 2010], installed a bunch of Apps to the SD Card which is my default install location, then plugged the phone to the USB port on a computer and used it as memory stick, then when I finished all my Apps have disapperead and the icons now have no icon and when I click on them they say the app is no longer installed, I have reboot the phone a couple of times and still no luck, any ideas how to fix this rather than installing everything again and how to I prevent this happening again???

Many thanks
[Desire General] LondonDragon:
Looks like after about 10-15 minutes all the Apps come back, but now I don't have the option any longer to select where the Apps are installed in the settings, and looks like all the apps I install now are going to the phone memory and not the SD card, any help appreciated, thanks
[Desire General] djoni1980:
that's what happens when you use froyo app2sd instead of A2SD+
[Desire General] LondonDragon:
Ok thanks, now need to research how to get A2SD+ to work, at least I know its a known problem, I have been looking but did not find a clear indication.
[Desire General] LondonDragon:
Problem solved! Used ROM Manager to partition my SD Card and reloaded the ROM, all working fine now :)

Trying to get an idea of interest in a theme like this.

Inspiration came from Bezerker.

Themed out in all red with out the over kill on the eyes.

All icons are left original Droid X colors.

Many Thanks are due and will come if I decide to release!

Also, I'm in need of someone who could help me with text color...

I'm trying to have white text against the dark buttons.

Ok, I'm putting this link up for the those who'd like to test...There shouldn't be any issues besides the buttons which I'm working on. I haven't themed ADW yet...that'll happen tonight if i can get to it. Also this is from a free Mediafire account so it might be limited. If you don't get a copy and want one PM me.

Thank you...like I said, as soon as i can fix the dark text on the buttons, I'll make a proper release.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jdkoreclipse:
Actually, I have to correct myself. This IS the best theme I've ever used.

The only real "problem" is dark text, and those little lines shown I'm that last pic of the Calender.
