I have tried HTC Sync v.3 (can't remember where did I get it), anyway this version has complete different interface to version 2. In the music secion, it does has sync with iTunes playlist, but when I select it, it doesn't sync to my phone.
[Desire General] jobalz:
thanks, i got version 3.

phone says connected

htc sync says no phone connected

i'll to reinstall
[Desire General] porsch1909:
Where did you get HTC sync 3 from?

[Desire General] dazdaz:
I would like to know how the ITunes sync feature works.

But also of interest to me and i think everyone here, is how the iTunes streaming feature works so that you can play your iTunes collection on your PC via your Android 2.2 device, that would rock.
[Desire General] monsterfly:
It would be nice to have HTC Sync for Mac too :D
[Desire General] Lothaen:
Ah I was just looking on the HTC website for the update to the Sync - not that I want to sync iTunes with it - but if the functionality was there I wanted to see what it was like... before I never use it again!

I wonder why the Sync tool isnt on the HTC website..
[Desire General] dereck66:
On HTC support website, they have new HTC Sync v.3 (3.0.5387) for HTC wildfire, whilist my HTC Sync is v.3.0.5372, and only people (contacts) sync works, not pictures, musics, videos, etc...

it comes with htcsync 3.0.5387 which is for the wildfire

but it seems to be for desire as well. i tried to sync it with mine but it wouldn't work.

in help menu it says for android 2.1

maybe it's not ready for 2.2 yet?
[Desire General] porsch1909:
HTC sync always says to disable anti virus before you install. Even from the official site it says that
[Desire General] jobalz:
try this version. it's the newest

http://rs634.rapidshare.com/files/409679123/Setup_3.0.5387.exe
[Desire General] jobalz:
well it doesn't work with my 2.2 desire anyway

hope they'll release a version for 2.2 with the new sync options soon!
[Desire General] th1nkpad:
Works fine for me using FroYo and the latest version of HTC Sync, am doing 2 way sync for both photos and iTunes without any issues. I DID have to uninstall the original HTC Sync first though and reboot both the phone and PC after installing.

The .exe I used can be found on this page - http://www.mikesouthby.co.uk/2010/08/how-to-sync-itunes-with-htc-desire-via-htc-sync/
[Desire General] jaffanz:
Kia Ora all.

Yup works great!

You need the HTC WildFire released sync app version 3.0.5387, all previous versions removed, reboot both phone and pc, connect up and OLE! Why it isn't clearer i'll only put down to STUPID HTC approach. Or the fact that its not supposed to work? I'm a happy camper so who cares..

Works sweet. I use doubletwist normally, which i love. Its just the annoying sync read time of doubletwist to process through iTunes after i've made a change thats hard to handle.

running on Windows 7 64 bit

have a great day with froyo!
[Desire General] wolf_man:
Guys. Worked great for me also, BUT, even though they are on the phone, my Music app cannot see them and just shows 8 default demo mp3's? Any ideas?
[Desire General] steve228uk:
If you wanted to sync music/video/photos you could always use DoubleTwist.
[Desire General] wolf_man:
I'm sure I restarted the phone and that didn't work? (maybe not, maybe I'm losing it!)

Anyway, I unmounted the sd card and remounted in settings and it has found all tracks now
[Desire General] AndroHero:
You need the new htc sync for itunes sync. You dnt do it through itunes :)
[Desire General] sshaikh:
Does this also sync playcounts/dates?
[Desire General] jobalz:
did you refresh your sd card aftewards?

by rebooting the phone for example
[Desire General] jobalz:
no, just itunes playlists
[Desire General] wihandw:
http://www.multiupload.com/U0ZVKIZIR6 <---LINK for new htc sync
[Desire General] BSAB:
Hum, can sync my songs fine, but the playlists end up being all jumbled and wrong (i.e., the playlists are not the same as in iTunes).

Has this happened to anyone?
[Desire General] djtosh:
mine will only sync song that are part of a playlist and wont sync songs that are just in library, anyone else experience this problem?
[Desire General] tenble:
Did a try with HTC Sync 3 last night, it transferred my files but into a jumbled up directory and inititally kept skipping when playing. Bizarre, but then again, its only for Wildfire at the moment, so...

anyway the mp3s ended up in \Music\Playlist\f\Music\Music\albumnames... zzz...
[Desire General] djtosh:
So songs have to be in playlists to be transfered?
[Desire General] wahur1:
You cannot sync all the songs which are in library and it gives option to sync only playlists. I never knew it about this and deleted my 2200 songs and I thought it would sync through itunes...I went on adding again with media monkey which took 2.5 hrs to transfer.
[Desire General] djtosh:
made the same mistake guess its back to media monkey then, why do big companies hire lazy software developers?
[Desire General] Psych0Chimp:
I'm happy with it only syncing playlists as my library is massive.

However, it syncs the music to \Music\Playlists\D\Music\Artist\Album\Song

This is a problem as the built in (HTC) Music app cannot find the music, possibly as its buried so far down the file system?

Anyone else with problem or any solution?

Chimp
[Desire General] hgjkg:
I had this problem too, you need to dismount/mount your SD card in the settings. Then the music player will search up the songs. But the iTunes sync is still useless for me, as it jumbles up the playlists. None of the playlists are right, about 30% of the songs make it into the playlists and even some which are not supposed to be there. Yet all the songs get transferred to the phone.
[Desire General] Psych0Chimp:
Just tried a program called "iTunes Sync" and it seems to work very well, although it is a bit slow to transfer...

[Legend General] JMAC323GT:
Hey everyone i was just wondering if it's possible for me to get 3g working on my legend. It is an international legend and I am on rogers canada network. Any help whatsoever would be greatly appreciated.
[Legend General] GroovyBear:
I don't think it will work. The international version uses a different band (900/2100) I believe.
[Legend General] JMAC323GT:
Thanks for the reply... the back of the box says this:

Network - HSPA/WCDMA (900/2100 MHz)

GSM/GPRS/EDGE (850/900/1800/1900 MHz) Which is what i thought rogers was.
[Legend General] jahnile:
Rogers GSM network operates on the frequencies of 850/1900 MHz so your 3g should work. Are you running stock rom or a custom rom? Do you know if your phone is rooted? If it's rooted and or you are running a custom rom then make sure your are running the last radio for your device..
[Legend General] 1point8t:
Rogers uses 850/1900 HSPA bands not 900/2100 HSPA bands.

You will only get EDGE data.
[Legend General] JMAC323GT:
Hmm that's a shame... would you happen to know if it could be used on any other networks with 3g? like wind?
[Legend General] pfak:
WIND uses 1700 AWS frequency, no providers in Canada use those two frequencies (and god knows why NCIX and other stores are selling the European version to Canadians.) You should really read up on these things before buying a phone.
[Legend General] JMAC323GT:
yeah thanks... i was never told it was an international phone.
[Desire General] PeteT:

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ddanat:
hey guys. I recently rooted my phone, many thanks for that by the way, however something that only exists in Germany that's very similar to Facebook called StudiVZ isn't integrated anymore. This isn't like... thaaaaat bad or anything, it would just be nice to have it working again since I'm living in Germany atm.

Is there a way to say "enable" it in SE's Generic Roms (assuming they just don't have it enabled but the code's still there) or can I somehow load the necessary files for that from the Germany-Generic Rom onto my current setup?

Thanks for your help guys. I'm sure I'm not the only one who wants this in Germany and I apologize if I'm repeating something already covered. I couldn't find anything in the search.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Cablekevin:
You need to get the apk files to get it working again, just like the Hyves part for Dutch X10 users, you need to find someone who's willing to pull and upload the files for you! Good luck!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ddanat:
ahh okay thank you very much kevin. I know it's not currently possible to decrypt branded roms, but what about the generic roms for different regions?

either that or can any Germans please hook me up with the necessary files? =) da wär ich jemanden sehr dankbar ;)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
I think this should do the magic. I have attached German Rom Timescape files, because there is no "real" Addon/Plugin for StudiVZ. I think they hardcoded it into Timescape.

Regards

Bin4ry

EDIT: Sorry i found it!

Extract my attached zip. You will find another zip and a apk.

Put the zip in /data/app

Put the apk in /data/app-private
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ddanat:
ok I downloaded the files, copied the old ones to the sdcard, copied the new ones (from the zip file) to the sdcard in another folder, then I dd'd the new ones over into /system/app/ and now the phone doesn't want to start... it's just showing the Sony Ericsson logo at first and now it's not moving forward at all...

Did I miss something? Can still get into Debug mode to copy over the old files for now?

current rom: 024

Thanks very much for any help

*EDIT*

Ok I figured out I can still get into Debug mode to change the files around... however the sdcard isn't mounted. I'm gonna try a few things but I would like to know how I could mount it.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
Hm, i think in packages.xml now TS key is false for the packages. Packages.xml is found in /data/system/packages.xml

And don't forget to chmod 644 the files.

Here are the timescape entrys in the german rom :

<package name="com.sonyericsson.android.contentmanager.service.timescape" codePath="/system/app/TimeScapeProvider.apk" system="true" ts="1277952731000" version="1" userId="10038">
<sigs count="1">
<cert index="5" />
</sigs>

<package name="com.sonyericsson.android.timescape" codePath="/system/app/Timescape.apk" system="true" ts="1277952872000" version="1" userId="10021">
<sigs count="1">
<cert index="5" />
</sigs>
</package>

<package name="com.sonyericsson.android.timescape.pluginmanager.framework.application" codePath="/system/app/TimescapePluginManager.apk" system="true" ts="1277952731000" version="1" userId="10006">
<sigs count="1">
<cert index="5" />
</sigs>
</package>

Maybe you can try to fix it if you change this entrys with the right TS.

My sdcard is mounted like this:

/dev/block//vold/179:1 /sdcard vfat rw,dirsync,nosuid,nodev,noexec,uid=1000,gid=
1015,fmask=0702,dmask=0702,allow_utime=0020,codepage=cp437,iocharset=iso8859-1,s

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ddanat:
okay... so this hasn't gone quite like planned... I did the following to put the old files back in their place but it doesn't seem to have worked just yet.

I mounted the sdcard to the PC using this method:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=531310

after that I copied the folder with the original files for my phone onto my laptop. I then proceeded to do the following:

in this case the Backed-up files were copied to /home/doug/Downloads/GermanTimescape/Timescape/ and as you can see each was placed on the folder /timescape I created with 777 permissions to get the files on the phone at least.

I then did the following:

and despite that I'm still not getting the phone to boot. I'm gonna double check permissions, etc, but until then any ideas?

thanks,

Doug

*EDIT*

ok so somehow that didn't work. some of the timestamps are from an hour or so ago so I doubt that's right. I'm doing something wrong... arghhhhh

btw I can't seem to get the sdcard mounted here still... whenever I try to mount it, it complains about my syntax. my linux knowledge is failing me (= me failing^^)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ddanat:
This was a double-post originally but now that I got it back working I'm just gonna use this post anyway...

wow I completely fell asleep. after re-analyzing my scripts I notice now how many mistakes I made.... just fixed filenames and the phone booted right up without me even having to reboot it! now I'm going to go at it a little slower and check out those files Binary.

thanks again

*EDIT #2*

well I copied the files from Binary, edited the packages.xml accordingly and it didn't work. the VZ-Networks haven't shown up.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ddanat:
OK I know this will be a third post but it was originally not supposed to be like that... I do somewhat need a *bumb* now due to new information. I now believe that timescape is dependant on a lib under /system/lib/

my reasoning is that you have libs for facebook and twitter (both of which are enabled in Timescape in generic roms) however for twitter I know for sure I have no applications installed for it to work.

The dependency could very well lie on more files (probably settings files for Timescape regarding plugins) but if someone could please get me the proper .so file from the lib folder (or just the entire lib folder would be fine if size makes no difference) so I can try and get that working.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
I can upload tomorrpw. But havw you already copied the two files in my zip? From what i'm knowing only from brainstroming there are some entrys from timescape in default. Prop located in system dir. Take a look there too.

But normally the addons which are located in /data/app and /data/app-private should work.....

Regards

Bin4ry
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ddanat:
hey can you still upload those files and and others you might think play a role?

Gruß,

Doug

*EDIT*

Sorry... Yes, I tried all of them.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ddanat:
a-ha! Correction! I hadn't seen the second file (I didn't notice that you had edited your post). I did what you said and now it works. =D Thank you!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
Good :)

I forgot you almost sorry :)

but if it runs now there is no need for the libs anymore ;)

Use the volume rocker to zoom in and out. You have up to 4x digital zoom with the Vibrant's camera.

Hi, i've installed the new ota update of froyo on my desire, but after the update the phone just keeps rebooting, i've tryed removing the sim and sd card and can get into the os now but the phone cant detect the sd card nor the sim card. i cant startup the wifi and the phone still reboots after a while. what to do?
[Desire General] rackspace:
Unfortunately I am stuck with very slow GPRS (not even EDGE).

Many people have shared the update on zipped files.

I wanted to know, if I download the update in zip file and transfer it to my mobile, how can i manually install the update myself?

I have found the steps to update the froyo:

1. Download the Android 2.2 firmware for the Desire – here is the link to download

2. Rename the file update.zip and copy it to your microSD card via USB. [Note: make sure the file is named update.zip and not update.zip.zip.]

3. Power down your Desire

4. Hold down the “Volume Down” button as you power the phone back on.

5. A screen should appear showing your phone’s system searching for various files. Scroll down to “recovery” and press the “Power” button.

6. When you see the triangle with an exclamation point symbol, press the “Power” and “Volume Up” buttons at the same time.

7. From the menu that appears, select “Apply sdcard:update.zip.”

8. When the screen displays “Install from sdcard complete” select “reboot system now” and wait for the phone to power back up.
