Yeah, I was wondering the same thing... Maybe it can't be done because it's a beta, or it doesn't sync with Google but with some HTC service.

Ya...it must not be a completed app. Based on the greyed out Settings>Accounts option and the "Refresh" option it looks like it is intended to eventually sync with a cloud-based service. I truly hope that it will be the Google servers. Their use of the color bars along the left hand side of the tasks makes me hopeful that it will be Google-based....
I use nuevasync as an exchange account with toodledo as a task manager. I've got it syncing without issue. Only certain exchange services will it support at this time.

It is more than just .apk there are system libs in there too. It won't work with 3.0 yet. Just got 3.5 its just as polished as 3.0 and appears faster to the naked eye. There are some wonderful. 2.3.5 roms.

any updates on htc tasks??
google calendar's recent updates integrated googles tasks as an own calendar and the tasks can be attached with due dates and notes which will be shown in the calendar. very very cool feature, but unfortunately this new "tasks" calendar is not shown in our htc devices as a standalone calendar which it should be :-(

Yeah that's a known issue with Google Calendar for quite some time. Tasks have been around for Calendar for well over a year. However it's googles funky way of integration that is the issue, not the Calendar apps. It's because Google Tasks are not true tasks nor true calendar, but a wonky hybrid.
My iphone and vanilla Android had the same issues.
What exactly is your problem with the tasks app?
Sounds more like your problem is Google, not HTC.
works great for me with toodledo through Nuevasync.
my problem is that "accounts" in HTC Tasks is greyed out. I want to sync Google's tasks with HTC Tasks app and want the Google Tasks Calendar to be shown as a standalone calendar on my phone.

Well I can click accounts (using virtuous affinity 1.46) but can only sync with exchange or use local lists.
Even if you could sync with google tasks it's a basic service, I would rather sync with astrid or producteev.
The accounts list is grayed out, because HTC Tasks sync works with Exchange ActiveSync. Add an Exchange account under Settings/Accounts and Sync, and you will be able to sync your tasks.
Hope this helps.

I added my google account as an exchange account and selected only tasks to sync but it never syncs any tasks?

Hey there! i have Desire S with HTC One ported OS. it also reports that it has Sense 4.0.
i've activated the widget and made task lisk on my google account but the problem is that the widget sometimes it shows the task list, sometimes it doesnt.
anyone know why this is happening?!
Is it possible? If so, how? :S
And how about Facebook syncing with the phone app, I mean it can be done in the HTC Sense phone app but not the stock ICS one.. Is it also possible to flash a HTC Sense phone app?
Thanks

Hi, No you can't use any sense program as far as I know without sense running even if you have sense installed. As for facebook, when you install it and run for the first time it will ask you what you want to sync, I personally choose everything but it also will allow only existing contacts. If you need to access that again to change it can be found under settings and accounts. I also you friendcaster and that will sync your fb contacts with your phone as well. Hope this helps.

Seems to pull in the contacts alright, but it doesn't properly merge them with existing contacts.
I used HaxSync to sync my Facebook contacts

I prefer the HTC Contacts app so I installed HtcContacts.apk, ContactsProvider.apk and GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk from ARHD 5. Once all your contacts sync up, you can merge them and the changes do transfer over to the stock ICS contacts app if you still prefer to use that.
Edit: I also installed Facebook for Sense from the ARHD ROM, though I'm not sure it was required to get sync working.
any one can help me and backup the HTC for facebook application and upload it here
i don't have it in my sensation i have only the facebook
thx

I'm sure you mean Facebook for HTC Sense.
That actually is a system application that syncs all Facebook data with your HTC phone.
It's alright if you don't have it. It is still present on your phone, you just can't access it directly.
(For example, if you go to people and check your Facebook contacts, it will have the person's latest updates, photos, etc. That is how Facebook for HTC Sense works.)
i don't have it even in accounts i can't add account for facebook for HTC sens
or widget
Details about your current ROM, please?
Android version 4.0.3
HTC sense 3.6
software number 3.32.415.15
Is it possible for you to go to People and check your Facebook contacts, it will have the person's latest updates, photos, etc.
As for the widget, you have to use Friend Stream
yes i can check the update for contact
but i was checking for the facebook for htc sense and it's missing

It doesn't matter, because Facebook for HTC Sense is only responsible for integrating Facebook contacts into your phone and providing you access to their photos and updates through the People application. So, don't worry, you have it on your phone, it just doesn't show up in Accounts & Sync anymore.

All of the Facebook versions I've used have had the options to sync my friends into my contacts and I've used many, I switch roms very often and so download Facebook regularly.

Guys, I'm having a hard time finding an App that syncs Facebook profile pictures in HD to my phone contacts.
Haven't found a real alternative for HaxSync yet. HaxSync works for syncing the pictures in best quality, but only as long as the phone contac is named like the Facebook contact. PicSync seems to do it the right way by letting you chose a sync by Facebook ID (means it doesn't care about changing names), but it's no HD.
Any REAL alternatives, please?

WTF? We live in the 21st century and even HTCs social hub can sync by Facebook ID and everybody is telling me that HaxSync is the ONLY way for now?
Excuse me?!
HaxSync can and does sync friends manually, even though it's a bit less than user-friendly at the moment. The next update will make it much easier
Try this
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ro.weednet.contactssync&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsInJvLndlZWRuZXQuY29udGFjdHNzeW5jIl0.
It connects by FB id... atleast that wat it claims
I've just tried contact picture sync and it seems working.
It's free and you can sync them manually in HD.
Is this what you are looking for?

Does it also sync all contact pictures by time schedule? HaxSync would be perfect if it would sync by ID and not by the stupid names.. you know how often girls change their ****ty names on Facebook - and boom, HaxSync doesn't recognize the person any longer and the conract picture catches dust. Awesome.

Nono I'm not the developer I was just looking for something similar and found that app. But you are looking for something more "complex" if I understand correctly.

Just something HaxSync-like which keeps neatly in the background and syncs by ID on Jelly Bean. Can't be THAT hard, right?

Huge problem I have with this App: It does not really only sync the contacts in my phone list. I don't even want a facebook link in my contacts and I do NOT want to let Facebook import any phone contacts into the friggin' interwebz. I JUST want the goddamn picture in HD, synced by ID!

I have trie both Revelation and ViperS, but none of them works with Exchange (not possible to add account).
Is there any other roms on Jelly Bean for HTC Sensation XE that can handle Exchange accounts (and Facebook syncronisation)?

Do you need it to be Sense-based? If not, have a look at droidevs HTC Sensation ROMs & Development.
It's a bit of a jungle because of the many virations and many(!) updates, but all of them are supposed to support exchange, and those that don't (in their current version) are already identified in the forum threads.

You CAN use exchange with JB Roms.
This is how you do it:
Iceberger said:
With a help of an older JB rom (an ICS rom wont work), in this case ViperS v3.0.0 and Titanium Backup I came with this workaround.
1. Install ViperS v3.0.0 (JB) and add your Exchange and Hotmail accounts. in v3.0.0 it works!
2. In Titanium backup choose Accounts and Mail 5.5.2311133269.528614.493299 (E-MAIL ACCOUNT SETTINGS) to backup
3. Install ViperS v3.1.1, Restore Accounts and Mail 5.5.2311133269.528614.493299 (E-MAIL ACCOUNT SETTINGS)
4. Reboot
5. In accounts & sync enable synchronization for Exchange and Hotmail (and POP accounts, if you have them)

You restored facebook app along with data? Dont do that never if u did. Just add account and let it sync it self, never restore any Sense apps, or apps like Facebook or Twitter which have Sense integration.
I didnt restore facebook. I just installed it. It seems like its a sense issue. It works with CM10.1

This is a workaround, not a fix.
You should be able to change password, but I am not aure.
For multiple accounts, just add 3 or more accounts in 3.0.0, and delete them after restore in 3.1.1. Then if you'll ever need to get them back, restore again using titanium, and you are good to go.
This is only until the devs fix the issue.
And if this is inconvenient, just use another mail client for the time being.

ViperS will most likely fix it in the next issue. You can use some other mail client for exchange if you want for the time being.
