[Q] Is HTCSense.com going to be down forever? - HTC Inspire 4G

Seems the damn site is down more than it's up, which is frustrating because I've come to enjoy the features like it's storage of my text messages, so they just pop back up after I restore a ROM.
Last night I flashed CoreDroid, and then when I tried to relogin to HTCSense, it wouldn't accept my user name, so I went to HTCsense.com and it's down for maintenance.
It's now been down for more than 24 hours. I know they label it "Beta" but it's not rocket science so I'm not sure what the issue is.
Anyone?

It's the same for me to. But when try to log in it says that it can't locate my region. I then checked the website that's when it noticed it was down. I was wondering for how long as well?

Still down. Frustrating since I was relying on them for the track phone and wipe function. I still love their devices, though.

thinks I was only able to get on it once in the past month

Inspire BACK TO STOCK BUT STILL HAS.....

Unknown Sources LOL LOL LOL.
Just wanted to know if i just got lucky, or if this happends to everyone....I actually am pleased because i missed the applanet feature. I was going to push a program when i noticed i still had it.....
If it is not a fluke, then please spread the word around that if anyone wants to go back to true stock (unrooted), you can still keep the UNKNOWN SOURCES.
You couldn't pay me enough to go back to, and stay stock.
And applanet is warez.

you didnt happen to go back to the stock rom that now includes side loading through a new update did you?
If you went back to stock but kept your data partition intact, then the setting will stick. Did you wipe data?
yes i did a full data and cache wipe.
Guys don't get me wrong, i would LOVE to stay rooted..............for many reasons....but i just have had the worse luck in the world with my GPS not working on any platform i have tired (i.e. CM7, TPC, and anotherone i forgot the name)....
I don't blame you for never wanting to go stock.....it sucks....but hey, at least my GPS works and now i can at least use applanet
BTW, the best one i liked actually was GINGERBREAD BEAST!!!!!!
Unfortunately the GPS wasn't working as it should.

GPS works on GingerBeast just fine. It's weird tho... If you open navigation...it will continue to say "waiting for location" ...Disregard this...go ahead and load the address..Connects within seconds.
My problem has to do with the GPS going on and off, on and off.....
GPS Status would show like 7 sattelites but still wouldn't "LOCK"...which is totally weird....
With my STOCK ROM, it connects within 4 seconds....
I have my "GOLDEN PARACHUTE" in being able to go back to STOCK so if anyone has any other ROM they want me to try which will be either "CLOSE" to stock or will work find with the GPS, then let me know and i will re-root again.
Actually AT&T updated the inspire today to allow for side loading.

You do realize by using applanet you are stealing money from the devs that put hard work and effort into making apps. I just want to make sure that you know pirating apps is not a good thing.
I learned from that i Used to use applanet but one day a nice little bill of $1000 came and i asked and called 100 times and it ended up some thing with applanet charging my carrier and anyway the stupid **** is always down

The sideloading setting got backed up to your Google account from when you had your rooted ROM. When you went back to stock and signed back into Google, all your settings got restored.. including sideloading

No, read the first post on this page. AT&T updated the Inspire to allow sideloading. I have it too and I've never rooted my device.

I'd sure like to know how they pulled this off. It is a bit disturbing to think they could make a change of this type in the system without us knowing that it even happened.
Just shows you what kind of pull Amazon has. They likely turned it on so that you can use the Amazon App store.
Interesting thing is that I have a device going back for exchange and 1 of the questions they asked me is "Have you downloaded any software/apps to your phone?" I said "Sure, what is the point of having a smart phone without apps" They then asked "Where did you download the apps from?" and I responded "The Android Market powered by Google of course. Why is there anywhere else to get apps I thought that was the only place." He then said, "It is, I was just checking" Of course that was a week ago, so things seem to have changed.

T-Mobile Preping for GB Update!?

So, after checking system updates for awhile and seeing I am at the current version, I just tried again and got
"Connection Failed."
Maybe T-Mobile took down the server for checking software updates to prep for the new version?
I thought it may have been my signal, but I am fully able to browse the web at 4G speeds...
***crosses fingers!!***
Edit: another idea I had was, maybe the shut down the server for update checks due to a TON of people loading the servers with checking for updates due to the GB update rumor? LOL

Sorry I accidentally hit post. Anyway after I was done un-rooting I was disappointed to find the sideloading box gone. I decided to see what would happen if I tried to install amazon anyway and for some reason it let me. Even though I don't have the check box. Cool but perplexing. Any theories?

What would ruin your warranty? A non-visible "unknown sources" that ATT actually allows now anyway?
Or s-Off @ hboot?
Or superuser?
Or a non-stock ROM?

Yeah I thought about that...if I happened to get a sales rep that yells out, "You're rooted!"...but I needed that SIM card and really didn't want the hassle of popping the Hack Kit and going back to stock just for a SIM card...it was kind of fun .

No doubt. That would've been a major PITA.
My phone looks so stock that I doubt they'd notice. Still, I'd be a bit jumpy while in the ATT store waiting for the SIM. But you managed it, so....
Luckily I got my SIM replacement needs taken care of when I was still stock/unrooted. I doubt I'll ever need another one....

Strange Text messages

This is tough to explain...
At random points a friend of mine tells me that I am sending stange text messages that look like this:
"ME:<Subject: > - What game?"
According to what I see in my text history, It is being sent from my phone. Now out of the 20 or so people I have active text sessions with, she is the only one.
I've been through various ROM's and have had this problem follow. Logic tells me its her phone based on the facts but I can't prove it. I've done a Google search and that returned nothing. Searched around the XDA site and didn't turn up anything.
Has anyone experienced anything the same or similar?

Now excuse me if I am not following you, but
First you say : 1
And then you say : 2
How does something you can see in your phones text log become her phones problem?
It is your phone and it is prolly an app you install since it follows you, or a friend in your midst as they follow you too.

Yea I know, But I've been running with only stock apps for the past 24 hours and it happened again last night. I'm puzzled. Out of all the people I text it just goes to her phone.

If its showing as sent from your phone in your phone, then logic would dictate that your phone is the source of this issue. When switching roms, did u do a full wipe before reflashing? Are u sure u are not restoring any apps or configurations whether if its synced with Google or titanium backup? Perhaps u have apps stored on your sdcard? Just a few things to think about.

Stolen Nexus S

In July 2011, my Nexus S was stolen. I went to the police but they said they probably couldn't recover the device. So I just kinda let it go.
Well, a few weeks ago I found out the the phone was still connected to my Market account. This provides a bit of a security concern because I've got my credit card on my market account too, but they haven't bought anything. Just for fun, I decided to download and install Plan B to the phone, and within a few hours, I got four emails of the phone's location within 15 meters. Well, I didn't have time to bring that to the police, and that was eleven days ago. So I have a few questions:
1. I want to be able to get a more recent location because I'm afraid the police will say the location is too many days old. I know you can text "locate" or whatever to the phone but it's not my number anymore. (I know this because on my market account it says it's an AT&T phone whereas I'm on T-Mobile.)
2. Is there any way at all to remote remove the app and re install it?
3. Is there another app similar to Plan B that I can do the same thing?
4. Is there anything else I can do?

That really sucks. I know Lookout had an option on their site to collect the location through the internet, no phone number required. Don’t know if it's 100% sure, but it's worth a shot. Really hope you get your phone back. Good luck!

You should be able to login to your Google voice account and see which number it now forwards to. Assuming you had it on the phone and they did set it up. If not you can just text to your Google voice number and it should go through.
