How do i sync sms and contacts with htcsense.com ?
I can log in to htcsense.com and make my phone ring and i can lock the phone.
But i want the rest that is shown in this video.

I don't know when they stopped having it look like that, but I think it automatically syncs.
I exchanged my Sensation today & when I signed in the my htcsense account on my phone it started to sync the contacts & texts back to my phone. I really wish there was a way to disable it actually.
You can disable sync, but then you will not be able to track your phone i guess.
I don't understand why i can't see all options.
If I'm going to do a hard reset, then i want to know if my data is in sync with htcsense.com or not...
see that's what sucks. I'd like it to be synced to htcsense, but I don't want my contacts/sms synced. i hope they fix that. right now if I sync it up then it will pull down my contacts & there will be duplicates which I don't want.
After sync with htcsense.com, I did a hard reset of the phone.
The contacts and the messages was not restored to my phone when i again performed a sync with htcsense.com
There was no important sms on my phone and i had all my contacts synchronized with gmail, so no problem losing it.
Apps was not restored when logging on to marked.

I just graduated from a Blackberry to the HTC Incredible. After a few days of use and way too much forum browsing, I still have a few issues that I cannot resolve. Please help if you know of any solutions!
1. PHONE: If I dial one of my local contacts and do not include the area code, the call log labels the call as UNKNOWN. This is somewhat frustrating as every phone that I've ever owned was sophisticated enough to known that I'm dialing a known contact even if the area code is not included.
2. CONTACT SYNC: I synced my Blackberry with Outlook. I had no problem getting all of my contacts into the Incredible, but now I want to sync them with Google Contacts and ditch Outlook. I cannot change the PC Sync label on each contact in my phone though, and I'm not even sure if it has anything to do with it.
3. CALENDAR RECURRENCE: I often need to enter meetings to repeat on multiple days of the week. For instance, I may have a review meeting every Tuesday and Thursday. Is there a calendar app that has the capability of recurrence in this manner? I know this is a popular problem, but I have been unsuccessful in finding a solution. It seems insane to have to enter these types of recurrences through Google Calendar to have them sync with the phone properly.
4. MAIL: If I setup my "native" or default google account in the HTC mail app, it syncs with IMAP to get all of the existing mail. HOWEVER, it will not show any new mail that comes in. I have unchecked the sync with the Gmail App ( I cannot remove the account from the Gmail App), but no matter what I do, I cannot get new mail in HTC Mail. Each time I try removing the account from HTC and setting it up again, the new mail shows up, but nothing new from then on.
5. POPUP NOTIFICATIONS: I love the notifications that I get in the status bar for new mail or text messages. Is there anything that I can use to have these notifications popup in a new window on my screen?
Please help! This is an awesome phone, but it just seems that some of the "basics" are missing.
Why didnt you post this in the HTC Incredible subforums? I doubt you will get an answer in here.
Hi,
I just got my phone 2 days ago and trying to get my gmail contacts to my phone. I have configured my gmail account in my phone by going into settings --> Accounts & Sync and adding an Account. I have chosen only Contacts (not mail or calendar).
Now when I open up Contacts app and go into the Menu to View --> "gmail account" and select the group I want it to display, only a partial list of my contacts are displayed. For example, I have 99 contacts in gmail group, I am able to view only about 15 or so of them on the phone.
I have tried syncing up several times but kinda hit the wall now.
Appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks in advance
Are you only seeing contacts that have phone numbers? Or do all 99 have phone numbers?
Atleast about 70 of them have phone numbers.
The issue got fixed when I did a factory reset and reentered the google account information again. This is not a good thing but did get the job done.
[Q] Exchange Calendar & Contacts on Android always Push updates even if Auto-Sync=OFF
Fist off, my goal is manual SYNC of everything everywhere in Android. I want to save battery.
I have an Exchange account with which I sync email, calendar and contacts. In the email app I set the inbox frequency to check NEVER (i.e. manual updates). That works fine... my email only syncs when I refresh my inbox manually. GREAT!
The problem is my calendar and contacts always receive push/real time updates. I have tried everything I can think of to set up manual updates for my calendar and contacts but I cant do it. Is this possible? The whole reason I am syncing email manually is to save battery, but if calendar and contacts cant be changed then I guess there's no point, right?
The only way I could get it to work was by disabling Background data. but it seems like it should just use the same sync settings as my inbox. Do I need to get over my WM ActiveSync-esque expectations?
Hi,
I've noticed that my contacts are not able to sync with google. This never was a problem till the time I rooted and eventually started flashing ROMs.
I simply try to sync contacts by :
Contacts --> Accounts--> sync contacts , gmail etc--> the sync finishes but no numbers are synced.
The usual gmail account info comes up but without the phone numbers.
Any inputs people?

Yes, I did check the Display Option. Nothing shows up.
Before I wipe my contacts clean and try syncing again, has anyone seen this happen?
I was talking to someone on WhatsApp (WhatsApp uses your phone contacts) when suddenly the name of the person I was talking to changed to someone elses name in my contacts, who I have never spoken to on WhatsApp
Then I realise all of my contacts have other peoples numbers added to them as primary and secondary numbers, it has basically taken numbers from random contacts and added them to random wrong contacts
They are all still 100% correct on contacts.google.com, but totally screwed up on my phone
Any ideas?
Well it's fixed, luckily I exported my Gmail contacts yesterday, because as soon as I deleted my phone contacts, it decided to sync and delete them from gmail too, even though I'd been trying to get gmail to sync them numerous times prior to the deletion and it refused
Imported them back into gmail and it synced to my phone again
PITA
Do clear the contact data
You can clear the contact data from the phone and restore it using your email. check out the TechRounder blog for any doubt.
