[Q]HTC NEWS app and widget compatibility question. - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

I want to know if HTC News application and Widget from Desire-based builds is compatible with Desire HD builds. And if yes, how can I install it?
Please post if you really know the answer because I tried everything and can't get it working. Maybe DEVs can help me here
Here's what I did:
Removing HTC Greader app and widget was easy - just deleted them from /system/app.
Got NewsReader.apk, com.htc.NewsReaderWidget.apk and their .odex files from a Desire-based build. Then tried everything to install them but with no success
I put them in /system/app/, tried adb install, tried manual installation with Super Manager, but it shows "Application not installed".
So, can I use old HTC News with Desire HD builds and how can I install it? Any help will be appreciated.

Anyone?

The News App and Widget are a part of Desire HD builds. Did you delete them and now want them back?
Why not just do a Clockwork restore to 'rebuild' your build?

No, they are different in Desire and Desire HD builds.
In Desire it is HTC News and in Desire HD it's called HTC Greader (and is linked with Google reader), no matter the names are the same in applications list.

The DHD News Reader links with Greader also.
Functionally, they are the same.

Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying
I don't like it and I want the old version from Desire.

YouTube update wont install

Im using the miui rom and already tried uninstalling YouTube via titanium backup.. Whats the deal?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Got the same issue running CM6. It says the app is not signed correctly
Delete it from system/app then adb push it. Everyone had the same issue when gmail and car home came to the market.
New YouTube is stunning though. Hint to what Gingerbread will be like?

But why is it? Because of the custom rom? Also, how do i do the adb thing? Could you be more precise?

I'm not entirely sure, but I think its because its originally stored in system/app and after we update, it tries to store on your SD, without properly deleting the system version.
Something like that anyway

Any of you having network problems with the new youtube app?
I keep getting a network error, error 400 I think it is. Its not because I don't have internet, because I have no problem using the browser or market. Any know solution?

Uninstalling in titanium backup reboot than install in market

To use Widgets; apps must be stored in phone memory. Once you update YouTube goto settings>applications>manage applications select YouTube and move to phone.

A Solution
I had the same problem - tried installing and got package incorrectly signed, solved it by uninstalling YouTube with Titanium Backup, restart, and then installing from the market.
If i tried installing straight after the uninstall it failed - meaning restart is a must.
Using OpenDesire 4.0.36.
I have manage to install new ver.
first delete from system/app/youtube.apk than also
in data/app/youtube.apk
restart
& now download new Youtube from market or if you tray to install

When i go to "m.google.pt/youtube/" it says that my device is not compatible with youtube... lol

[Q] Request: HTC Hub

Hi guy,
I want to install htc hub on my android HD2 build. I just want to know if i can find this application somewhere.
Thanks in advance
Only available in the desire HD builds.
Thank for your answer.
I know that. But I'm asking if there is any way to extract it from Desire HD rom for using in other no-desire rom.
PS i used a desire hd base HD2 rom and i liked that new feature because you can remotely control your phone from htcsens.com

I used a the same from SD card, but the version I found to install to the ROM, does not contain HTC Hub and voice search... I really liked the remote features you mentioned and that it can sync my stuff...
Could you tell me which rom should install on my HD2, or where can I find it?
Thank you

[Q] The new Market 2.26 not installing?

Hey! has anyone else been able to install the new Market 2.26? on our htc hd2's.
I can post the apk here if you wanna have a go, it's freeware and is version Market 2.26, we currently have Market 1.80 bulit in, but it doesn't seem to install, I thought maybe unmounting my SD card would help(Angry bird solution), but did not work either
Interesting to hear if other people got it too work
Hope this is the only thread about this, and in the right place, been in Xda long enough to know the consequence...Oh the horror of getting Flamed!!

[Q] Anyone want to make me a custom ROM?

I have tried searhing and I havent found anything like this, so I hope im not in trouble for asking...
Has anyone made or would like to make a custom sense rom with just a few extra apps?
The main reason I am asking is because you cannot access a file manager by downloading from windows to you sd card (you have no option to either download from Andriod Market or using the sync, which doesnt work for me)
Basically I looking for a ROM that is exactly like HTC Sense but has a file manager and a few other apps by default...
Like the ultra bright torch app and the you tube and Iplayer app.
You can alsways use roms that are already out there, but you usually loose the widgets the come with the stock HTC Sense, plus I miss the facebook streams.
Anyways, the main app it need installed is the superuser app and a good (free) file manager, anyone wish to help or comment?
Also, my phone is rooted with the HBoot 001 version, and I have heard roumours that if you upgrade to 2.2.2 then you can no longer root your phone, and since i am getting into hacking and rooting the widfire, I really dont want to loose the functions!
I hope this will start a healthy thread, as most of my threads dont!
Thanks, Keith
you can sideload apps from windows to your phone using sideloader machine for example
- If you are on HBoot 1.01.0001, you already are on Android 2.2.1 (There is no 2.2.2). While official 2.2.1 was not rootable some months back, after the release of AlphaRev / Revolutionary, it is possible.
- Apps can be installed via ADB also. One such guide is here:
http://voxigee.wordpress.com/2010/02/28/using-adb-to-install-applications/
And a Video Tutorial here:

- Also, Stock Froyo ROM with Superuser can be found here: (Get the Rooted Version). After you install this, you can install the File Manager using the guides above.

- Lastly, for such a simplistic ROM Creations, you can use the DSIXDA Kitchen to cook a ROM yourself. Its easy, and you can add and remove exactly what you want.
