Hey guys so I got the sensation and honestly I am loving this device. I have been on WiFi all day but haven't had a problem yet. I guess it is all about how u hold the phone.
Well I do have a slight problem which I need your help in. I can't seem to find the Facebook widget for HTC sense. I downloaded normal fb from market I can use that widget but don't see the sense widget. I see the Twitter for sense but not fb. Let me know what I can do.
Thanks in advance.

I believe it's bundled into the "FriendStream" widget now.
yes indeed..the friendstream is indeed bundled with facebook/twiiter etc
I see. Well it threw me of because in my accounts it is showing Facebook htc n sync's my info but no widget by it self. Oh well.
Thanks guys.

you can always download the android native app and use that widget.. but we already know about the seni and 3rd party widgets,, grrr
Add friendstream widget to your home screen. Then press and hold it and move to "edit" area of the dock. From there you can choose which networks are synced in that particular widget. I have 2 friendstream widgets, 1 for twitter and 1 for facebook.... did not like them all mashed up in one widget.
Hello,
In the directory, when I go to my contacts "Facebook", I have my contacts.
But when I go in my contacts "Facebook for HTC Sense", I have nothing.
As I had sync problems and I deleted my data, is the explanation?
My facebook account is set.
If I run a sync, I have an answer for Facebook for HTC Sense is not currently available
Have you the same thing?

I bet in the top right corner of the app it says "top news" and not "most recent" right?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
nope....most recent shown in corner. Uninstall and reinstall app seems to fix but same issures 5 mins later. Logoff and login again fix, but next time still all mess of stuff....damn it HTC or FB?
My htc news widget won't update. Any one has a similar problem? Any idea how to solve this?

In Accounts & Sync is News set to sync? (Sorry if that's too obvious, but it's the best place to start.)
Thank you but ya it's set to sync.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
try clicking the little refresh button on the bottom of the widget, that always works for me...if that doesnt work, remove the widget, add it again, re-add the news sources, and it *should* be fine after that
Solution of this problem
No folks, it is a well known bug for this widget. So the solution is simple. Install GOOGLE READER and sign in with your account and refresh. After that the news widget will work for you and update your RSS feed forever.

This HTC News app would be so much better if it had a way to mark all stories as read. Thumbing through all my stories takes forever...
Why would you use HTC News if you already have Google Reader installed?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
for me, the news app stopped syncing after the ROM update.I factory reset, and all is ok now.

Hi guys. Been using this app on my Sensation since day one but recently the app refuses to display contact pics in the SMS list. If i revert the contact to use a google pic rather than a fb pic then it works?? I think this has happened since HTC changed Facebook for Sense app. Any ideas?
Hi,
Looks like it is fixed for me now, sense 3.5
Method 1
Sign in to FriendStream widget with facebook, it will ask you to sync, choose sync with all contacts.
Will take some time to refresh all, after you get clear contact pictures.
If you cant sign in to FriendStream widget separately from facebook app, heres Method 2 that confirmed to work: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20392011&postcount=22 - thanks to the_scotsman
Hope this help and will work for some one else!
You sense 3.5 Rom? If so been looking for one and haven't had any luck. So I've reverted back to sense 3
P.s this should be in Q & A

What I've done:
Just sign in to FriendStream, and sync all contacts. (and press somewhere to force sync in settings or on some contact there is an option to update)
All photos in contacts now clear for me NOT blurred or stretched !!
Hope this help and will work for some one else!

What, I don't get what you are trying to say....it would be nice if you could elaborate?
Old news but congrats.. Basically he's saying that on order to get clearer contact photos you need to sync your phone with the friendstream app. The regular Facebook app syncs the photos with really low quality.

I think you need to go into Accounts & Sync in the phone settings and add specifically 'Facebook for HTC Sense,' then it should work.

Ok I signed into facebook of a fresh Rom install using friend stream widget ..
Still no facebook for HTC sense in accounts and sync and still blurry contact pictured... What am I doing wrong?
I click on friend stream widget, it comes up with accounts to sign into, I choose Facebook, Facebook for android comes up, then I sign in and it sais authorize Facebook for HTC sense but that pops up and disappears without me authorizing anything...is the same happening for you or can you authorize it?

this just isnt working for me, could you please tell me what youve done step by step...theres no reason why it works for you and not for me i must be doing something wrong but i have no idea what
That would be the first sense 3.5 rom with explicit facebook for htc sense ... normally that fb for sense is integrated in fb app on 3.5

Same here...
"Facebook for Sense" on Sense 3.5 ROMs is integrated with Facebook, which is why you'll only see Facebook in the sync menu. Maybe an early Sense 3.5 ROM had Facebook for Sense added, but its not needed.
All my contact images are sharp when I sync using the Facebook app. I don't use Friendstream at all.

Well your a lucky Scotsman then, mine are blurry as hell, I can't use sense 3.5 roms because when someone calls me it makes me want to throw up.
To add on my post, surely there must be a way to unseperate them?

Now I see that this thread is about useless...too bad.
Have you tryed to remove stock facebook app? NOT friendstream!
And signin in to friendstream after?
After signing in to it, sense will ask yo to sync facebook with contacts, you choose sync all. And this will update contact pictures, atleast it did this for me an other peaple here
Let us know ho you go there!

I tried this. Uninstalled Facebook app. But when I click on Facebook account in Friend Stream settings, nothign happens. There's no icon next to it either, so I think it needs facebook installed for it to work?
EDIT: Yep, I installed Facebook app again, and now I can sign into FB using Friend Stream.
Hi all,
I'm running Insertcoin 2.7 on my m7.
I can't figure out how to view cloud storage photos through the htc gallery app. Is this a limitation of the rom? I can even find a settings option in the gallery app, or any gallery related to online photos.
I'm looking to view photos from 'google photos' and my accounts are linked and syncing.
Thanks in advance
