Facebook not syncing some contacts on HoFo ROM - myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development

Anyone else getting any? I have a few contacts that refuse to sync up with Facebook to get a) their profile pic, b) their birthday and c) their photos/updates.

This should probably be in the thread for this ROM. This does not require its own post - read the stickies at the top including the posting rules.
Good luck with the problems.

To be honest, I put it in there, it most likely doesn't get answered because it's quickly overwritten by bigger problems that require more attention. That's the downside of having these MASSIVE threads per ROM.
If it really matters, the someone delete this thread and I'll post it in the ROM thread. If not, I'd prefer to keep it here.

the same for me

Sound profile keeps changing in Dutty's WM6.1 5.2.19209

Not sure if this has been disccused but I couldn't find any threads on this. When I have my profile set to ring sometime I noticed that it switched to silent.
The only thing I have running is the HTC home plug in so I don't think I have a conflicting program.
Any ideas?
It's your radio check out the wiki it will explain it to you. My phone was doing the same till I read up on it
It may also be the "Automatic" profile, which switches to silent when your calendar says you're in a meeting.

dont u have automatic profile activated? It switches profiles according to your appointments (if u have an appoint. it mutes your sound). Check it in HTC HOME.

Looks like I was too slow.
Sorry for the 'threadjack', but I didn't want to open another thread....
I'm actually having the opposite problem, with both of Dutty's most recent ROM's 4/9 and 4/16, the Automatic Profile is not working for me....I'm using the stock radio that's cooked in with the ROM. I dug through the registry, and it looks like there are some parameters, but I have no clue what they correspod to and how they should be set.
I think it might have to do with the version of HTC Home as I had no problem in the Hybrid ROM or with TNT's.
Any ideas?
HTC Home issues possibly.

The HTC Home is causing some various problems in the latest Dutty ROM. Try something for me, try disabling the Music tab in your HTC Home and see if that helps. It's been reported to help fix peoples GPS issues.
Please next time refrain from creating a new thread and post it in Dutty's thread.
Thank you.
Mod's can we please close this thread.

I appreciate the desire to try and reduce the number of threads, but I had already posted in there and it just got burried....instead of just closing all the offshoot threads, maybe we could have a few additional threads by topic area, i.e. Dutty Radio Compatibility, Dutty 3rd Party App Integration, Dutty OS Crashes.....something along those lines....I mean lets be realistic the Dutty threads grow to an enormous size that just make them unbearable to really get anything asked without being an ass and reposting your question 10 times.....that's the reason these types of threads get created....so maybe there's some other solutions to look at?

No dice unfortunately....I'm still thinking it's a difference the versioning of the HTC Home as I think the builds are different IIRC.
I've tried hunting down the registry paraemeters and couldn't find anything informative in my searches

yes, by reading Dutty's thread. I understand your concern as these post come up everyday and the fact that the question doesn't get answered right away usually means two things.
1.) already been answered
2.) No solution exist
I would actually prefer the question to be asked 10 times in Dutty thread then creating a whole new thread about a simple problem that has nothing to do with ROM development. This is a software related issue.
Honestly the search button is your best friend. I guarantee this question has been asked before.
If somebody simply posted the solution to every problem when somebody created a new thread do you realize how many new threads would have been created and then the spoon feeding would continue as it does.
I also appreciate your concern for coming up with new ways to solve the problem but creating a new thread about a existing thread is not going to solve them problem its just going to clutter up the already cluttered Kaiser ROM Development thread.

I second that. However, I'm using Dutty's Apr01 Hybrid and having major sound profile issues - sometimes muting itself, but sometimes turning itself up from muting! If anyone has any tips, we're hanging out here (post 1544).

I can definitely understand the desire to reduce threads, just to be clear, my suggestion was to create just a couple additional threads in key topic areas. That way you reduce the main thread by a factor of that number, and make each of the appropriate topic threads easier to search through etc. Those threads could be linked in the first post of Dutty's and it would be straightforward.
I'll keep hunting around and searching though.
Heh, and now that the thread as really been derailed it should probably be closed
Does not warrant a new thread....
Post this in the thread regarding the Rom in question.

"Prettier" forum directory now online

I got bored one day and saw some requests for a "prettier" interface for the forum.... that obviously is a long way off if it ever happens (because this is a forum), but here is something to tie you over
Let me know what you guys think or if you want anything added, i already found a few bugs on my own and fixed them so this is like draft 1.1.
www.xda-developers.we.bs
Basically all it is is all the links in the forum directory laid out in an aero theme.
I just compiled everything in paint.net and used html image mapping for all the links.
Any likes or dislikes? Should i add or remove anything? Do you think its useful?
Its my new homepage!

We are adding a commonly asked questions and answer's section (like how to flash your first rom ect.)
Here is the list we have so far:
A guide to flashing your first Rom
How to install Programs on your ppc.
An articles over the diferences between different spl's and what they do
A list of places where people can download programs (such as freeware sites)
Maybe a list of common hacks?
A list of must have programs
Adding it as a refrence for the Q&A section (since we get those questions over there all the time)
Any suggestions to the list? or anything else you would like to see on the site?
I like the old style. its almost easyer to see if there are any new post etc..

WM6 App for Facebook. should I develop one ?

Ciao,
I'm a recent fan of facebook, didn't like the idea of it at first but now I ended up having lot's of contacts.
I took a look around searching for a WM6 app to use it (no web browser thanks) but I couldn't find (maybe it's my fault) any, on the other hand I heard that the iPhone has a very nice client (don't own one so I can't really tell how good it is).
After a quick search I found a good compact framework C# library HERE.
the question:
is there already a good WM6 ap for facebook ?
if not..would you guys be interessed in one (no point developping it just for myself)?
It would obvioussly be free for all of you, but I would be in need of every possible suggestion on features and look'n'feel
please post your comments....ciao
Marco

Tracker Software as OEM in every ROM

Hi all,
I'm not that far to create my own rom at the moment.
But i see some very nice tools to track your mobile when stolen.
If every ROM builder will implement a Tracker like:
http://remotetracker.sourceforge.net/index.html
in his rom as OEM than everyone can protect their phone even when it have been hard reset.
I thnk Remote Tracker is the best, it also support to be cooked in ROMS..
Someone else who share my idea?

First of all after 39 posts, you should be now be aware of the rules against starting redundant posts on redundant subjects. This thread is on this same page. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=362645
Secondly in this age of the super ram, lite , naked, strip it down ,fad. I doubt that people would want their resources taken up by yet another app that they never use or maybe, possibly, hopefully not, will only use once.
For me, I always have my phone secured in a holster. I only take it out to use, never place it down and never leave it anywhere. I would not want something " cooked " into a rom, that I will never use.
Plus if I can track my " stolen " phone, what keeps people from tracking me ?
A password ? A promise that my information will be kept private at all times,?

If you read some info.. When sim is changed only a txt msg will send to a trusted person you give up in the tool that sim is changed with GPS location.
And you can sent txt msg to the phone to remove contacts etc etc..

Thats not true........... Your device IMEI is part of the protocol the phone service probes and has records of, regardless of the ROM you install. Let us say your phone is stolen, then all you have to do is contact the phone company and request tag location on the IMEI. The phone company then, if you can prove that the phone was yours, will tell you what phone number is now using the device and will assist you locate the phone. The phone companies keep the paired IMEI and the SIM records to prevent theft and to establish warranty start time. Just keep your IMEI number handy if you need it later in case of loss or theft.
So in essence, all those phone locator's' software are nothing but scams.
I think this thread is redundant as Denco has established and needs to be closed.
I agree with the original poster. Every cooked ROM should include this.
And yes, it is password protected so nobody can track you unless you want them to. Not only is it password protected, but you also need the phone number of anyone you want to track. So unless someone has your phone number AND password, you don't need to worry about being tracked.
As far as a phone company helping locate your phone- good luck with that. I can just imagine an AT&T rep responding to that request in a timely fashion, lol.
If my phone ever gets stolen, I will know within 1 minute exactly where it is. And if I was using that app instead of the Sprite Terminator I am currently using, I could FTP all of the contents of my storage card so I don't lose anything, then remotely wipe and lock the device.
That other thread is talking about Sprite Terminator, not the Remote Tracker app this thread is discussing. I will mention Remote Tracker in that other thread and see if anyone bites...

It is not a duplicate. That other thread is discussing Sprite Terminator, not Remote Tracker. That is a totally different app. It's a commercial app that has to be purchased. This Remote Tracker app is a freeware app that even the creator supports and encourages cooking into ROMs.
We don't close IE threads as being duplicates of Opera threads, do we?

i never said it was a duplicate but the mentioned thread is about similar software at which point regardless neither that thread or this one should have been posted in this forum, go post in kaiser general, kaiser software or some other forum and keep threads not dealing with rom development out of here. if it's a question about if it can be added as a package, go post question in the thread for the kitchen one is using. way to many people starting non kaiser rom development related threads here in our rom development forum, WAY TO MANY look at all the threads that litter our forum.

The app in that other thread is nothing like this app. It has 1 or 2 of the same features and that's it. This app does a whole lot more than the other app.
Incidentally, I contacted Sprite about possibly turning the Sprite Terminator app into an OEM package for cooked ROMs and the freaked out about how they don't support cooked ROMs, and they're a Microsoft partner, and blah blah blah. This app we're talking about here already has an OEM package created by the app's developer. So it is totally different.
The reason he posted it in this forum is because he is asking that all future cooked ROMs contain this app. That is the whole point of this thread- getting this app cooked into all future cooked ROMs. And in that light, this is the perfect place for this thread.
Rather than looking for threads littering a forum, lets take a look at posts littering a good thread...
Incidentally- that other thread that is about doing this same thing with Sprite Terminator, a few mods even posted in that thread and there was not a peep about it not belonging in this forum. They did, however, say the OEM package had to be taken down for piracy concerns. That is not an issue with Remote tracker because the app developer created an OEM package himself and posted it here on XDA, with a tool to create the registry entries needed, and detailed instructions on how to cook it into a ROM.

HTC HD2 DFT UltraFruit WLAN not working nor marketplace

Installation went smoothly but WLAN keep asking to re-enter password. It is the correct one, tried different networks. Also marketplace nor people menus work? When pressing them it just goes back to home menu?
Thanks in advance.
Why are you posting here? Isn't there a thread (presumably on the HD2 section of the forum) for this ROM?

no idea, though it was wp7 related.
I assure you, most WP7 devices can use WLAN and the Marketplace. ROM-specific issues should be raised in ROM-specific threads, not by creating a new thread in the Q&A forum for the entire OS.
There's a section of the HD2 forum that is devoted to WP7 on the HD2. If you want to post a WP7-on-HD2 issue somewhere, that's a better place. There's nothing wrong with asking whether a specific problem you're having with an HD2 ROM is a ROM bug or a universal one, but for something like this the answer to that should be obvious.
