EDIT:
DEVELOPMENT HAS STOPPED! Microsoft released a Facebook application which far surpasses anything i could have done. Please use that app for all your facebook addictions. It does not have Facebook chat but you can use Palringo for Facebook Chat. I've been using it for about a week now and LOVE IT! Thank you for all your support. It was a good learning experience for me!
Inspired by the other development efforts on here, I started developing my own version a facebook application.
As promised, another beta. This one including a VGA line.
See Second Post for Features and change logs
Directions:
You need .net cf 3.5
Unzip, Start app, Login and enjoy
BOTH FILES INCLUDED IN THE ZIP NEED TO BE IN THE SAME DIRECTORY!!! If you want to make a shortcut, make sure you make a SHORTCUT of the .exe and don't just copy the .exe alone
(Please not that it does take some time to first log in to facebook (some times up to 2 minutes). We are working on this issue and will hopefully reduce this time as much as possible.)
wFacebook is now full screen. To exit you must do the following:
QVGA: There is an exit button on the Home Screen (temporarily placed here)
VGA: There is an exit button on the bottom bar
NEW PICTURES COMING SOON!
Hope you guys enjoy and I will be updating this regularly. Planned features include facebook chat and other goodies. Stay tuned.

Yes there will be. As soon as I can get some graphics, I will release one for QVGA, VGA, and WVGA.

I am admittedly very weak in the graphics department. I want to make this look like what the Windows Mobile Community wants.
I am getting help developing new controls that will provide a more intuitive User Interface. Stay tuned everyone. Big things are happening. There are a decent amount of people behind this project and together we can get something very good out. Maybe start a whole series of wSomething products
i am willing to help with the graphics designing..id like to make sure that this thing works on vga though..the other application doesnt work at all on my touch pro..
just tell me the formats and size (both VGA and QVGA...i can make them in VGA first and then downscale to QVGA so that no quality is lost) of those images and i'll do my best
edit..i tried the qvga version and it does work up to one extend but the layouts are messed up
anyway let me know if you would like some help for the images
iv used a lot of photoshop tutorials recently to learn a lot of things.. here are a few icons i made recently

does this need to be authorised on facebook? if so do you have a link?
i have installed on my diamond to test (i know the graphics will be out) and am currently passing 7 mins for first logon.
that can't be right can it?
ps this looks very promising, keep working on it looking forward to seeing the vga version working

It does not need to be authorized. Please exit and restart the application. I have noticed a bug where if you recieve a call or text when it is connecting, something goes out of wack. Exit and restart and it should connect just fine. It does take a bit to connect but never that long.
I would be willing to help you with graphics just let me know and I'll whip some up for you
Ok just tried this app ( I can't get the other one to work at all on my wizard ) and unfortunatly when I try signing in it gives me a really long error message something bout system.indexoutofrange exception or something like tht

Is this right after you were logged in? Which button did you press? I will be uploading another version shortly that copies the error messages so you guys can attach here.
The most important thing is funtionality so I will be tackling these issues right away so any directions you can provide about what you did to get the error would be extremely helpful (if I can't reproduce it, I can't fix it).
Since facebook can be user customised with various applications and stuff, replicating an error might now always be feasible. Plus handling someone with a few thousand friends (yeah right ) could be troublesome.
Maybe for the first versions you can add a full debug log? Before every major function call you can write to file the arguments you are using (or at least a note of you are going to do). It might be slow(er) from a user perspective, but could make your life and debugging *much* easier.
As with the other Facebook application here, this one logs you out of facebook from other machines/devices when you log in with this app.

Hi ... Thank you for your reply ...
At least now i know, its not just my phone ..
Well, guess the only way is to wait for a bug fixed by HTC..
Come on! HTC!
Hello dear HTC Leo Community
i'm facing a really annoying problem and so far the google results didn0t give me an answer.
Does anybode has the same problem or had the same Problem and know how to fix it?
The Thumbnails in my HTC Album are shown very very very crappy
i still have the original rom installed.
if i click on the pictures the quality in fullscreen is normal but all my thumbs are really ****ed up
would be glad if someone knows whats to do i already searched the registry but ididn't found something which is pointing on this setting
thanks in advance
cheers rob
You must install the official camera patch provided by HTC on their site. It will fix the thumbnail preview as well.
Or update your ROM to the latest one as this includes the hotfixes...
i now installed the hotfix and it didn't work the thumbnails in my htc album are still the same
has anybody eventually the correct link with the file i'm not sure if i picked the right one.
and another question, when i update my rom what happens woth the software like cookie home tab or these things?
thanks and cheers
rob
When flashing a new ROM, stock or otherwise, it'll wipe all programs/apps on the device so either back them up or remember how you set it up in the first place
so i don't want to flash the rom
cuz most of the apps i isntalled on the storage card but all shortcuts will be gone
the rest i yould easily backup
can you please post the link to the correct htc album patch? i didn't found it
would be very nice
thank you and cheers

hotfix does not correct old thumbnails.
after hotfix, all new thumbnails will look perfect.
Hotfix is out 3 months now, why did you not applyed it till now?
Hi!
Does this also fix the crappy quality of the pictures in picture contacts?
The faces have a very poor quality (pixellation, not defined) although the source pictures have an excellent quality and are big.
Thanks!
because i've got the phone only 2 weeks
but thanks for the information then i clearly will aplly the patch again
thanks for the information =)
cheerio
ps: can i change the setting that i can switch the musicsongs with the vol up and down buttons?
all the time when i want to switch song i have to get the phone out my cover then unlock and then go to the music tab
and another issue
is it possible to configure the device, so it wont stop the song playing when you disconnect the jack?
hello community
i now applied the patch
and the pictures seems to be a little bit better, but still not shown absolute correct in the thumnails
before it was really poor in quality means you could saw some pixels and no clean transition
now i can remark some stripe pixels its really weird but i will keep an eye on it
thanks anyway

Your old thumbnails will remain like that, new ones wont. I learnt that yesterday!
hi,
first i'm really impressed of the quality of WP7. It's smooth, well designed...
on my LG, there are settings i can change before shooting something or recording with the camera.
for exemple, i have to set the camera to HD (720p)
but when i leave the application, then come back, all the settings were back to default...
is it a bug?
am i the only one having this bug or this phone?

I don't think so. There are couple reports about this issue from various sources. It looks like a bug in OS rather than in particular device model. Unfortunately the only thing you can do about it, is just waiting for a hot fix from Microsoft.

Happens with my HD7 too. It would appear to be a bug.
There have been a few small small bugs like this noticed across all devices in the week since WP7 launched; I wonder if MS will release a quick update pack in the next few weeks to address these? It could be a handy test update for future bigger updates (ie Jan 2011).
i hope too...
but i think microsoft will stick to january 2011

yes hopefully MS solves these issues. I wrote in to LG that the photo software did not retain its setting once we left the app. I was only told the reset was a software requirements. Not much else was said or explained.
So do hope the MS update would address this.
It is frustrating when ever you have to keep changing the settings. Would be nice if more features were made available.
Hi all
wondering if anyone here is using the htcsense.com website for either the ported deisre hd or desire z?
I've signed up and seems to work ok generally except it won't pick up my location? it says i'm in the middle of the ocean near south africa except i'm pretty sure i'm not there! ;-)
running mdeejay desire z 1.3 (need to update my sig - sorry)
Cheers
I was using htcsense.com and it worked great, but in the meantime a camera is more important and so i switched back to normal desire rom
GeneralWest2010, did you manage to get the location working? i still can't get it to pick up the phones location? am i doing something wrong? is there something that i need to do?
It worked on my mdeejay desire z v1.0, but have some problems with it on mdeejay desire z 1.3.
Did you enable the phone finder option in Settings -> Location ?
I cant even seem to log on! I signed up on my phone but it says it cant log in =/
Anyway, my brother has the Desire HD and I can tell you that the sense site is still pretty buggy, the location doesnt work all the time on his phone, nor does some of the other features!

same here too
location is not working for me too on mdj 4.1 hd build. ringing phone works (most time)! has anyone a workaround for this?
Hi Guys
what I ended up doing was having to restart with a clean build and login again with the email account that i wanted to use as default ( i have more than one ) then it re-synced and everything is working now including location finder. although when i changed builds it has duplicated all my contacts.
seems like they have a ways to go to make the system more solid.
cheers
nither location detection nor (ring phone ) works , iam using desire hd 4.3 mdeejay :S
HTC Problem
Hi all,
I just wanted to let you know that many people (myself included) are experiencing the very same issues with original, unmodified Desire HD's. I called HTC about this only a couple of days ago and they openly admitted that there were problems. In fact, to quote them word for word:
"you can't register a new account because it's not working properly. If you give me your email address we can let you know when the problems are fixed".
The person I spoke to claimed to have no idea what the problem was or when it might be fixed, but he had no hesitation about admitting that there were problems at their end.
Regards,
Craig.
Hello there, one question why are you asking about phones apart from the HD2? Your question was:
[Q] HTCSense.com on HD2
So do you not think this would have been in a better section? On the threads relating to the two phones in question.

Sorry I'm not sure what you are trying to say? I am only talking about 1 phone - the HTC HD2 / Leo.
oh I forgot to mention that it seemed to work better for me when i use the international code for my country. ie in australia i set my phone number up as +61xxxxxxxxx.
Not sure if it makes any difference but i tried both and this way seemed to work ;-)
hello.i have hd2 with mdj revolution HD and i have signed up for htcsense.com in greece.My problem is that nothing is working on htcsense.com.what can i do????
