Weird stuff with 2.1 v3

[pwps]

Aside from my mistaking a green piece of glitter for a newly activated LED in my earpiece, there's some weird stuff going on with my phone after I went from the 2.1 v2 leak to 2.1 v3. I even did a factory reset after the flash.

Most annoying is that now when I create some custom shortcuts using Better Cut, I get the message "The linked program is no longer installed on your phone" when attempting to open them. So far this has happened with both the Camera (photo and video) and People apps. I select the + then--> Shortcut --> Better Cut -->Activity --> Camera, change the icon and then create. Then once I tap on the finished shortcut on my home screen I get that message. It works fine if I add Camera and People apps without going through Better Cut. Very frustrating.

Secondly, there's no Evernote in my Market! I had it on my phone previously with the 2.1 v2 leak but it inadvertently got wiped. Now it's nowhere to be found. WTF?

Anyone know what's going on with either one of those issues?

I did not start using Better Cut until after I installed leak v3. I get the same message when trying to create a shortcut to People. Did not have a problem with the Camera shortcut though...hmmm?

Anyone have a fix?

Thanks to kevhow in this thread, I just figured out a work around. Here's what I did:

Deselected HTC Sense as the default UI and used Home instead. That showed all the previous attempts I had made at creating my Camera and People shortcuts. I deleted all those shortcuts. Then, while still in Home, I created a short cut to People the regular way: Press and hold empty space on home screen-->Shortcuts-->Applications-->People. Done. Then launched Better Cut-->Edit Shortcut-->People-->change icon, name, etc, and selected Create. Changed back to HTC Sense as default and the new icon was there and launched with no issue.

Hope that helps.

I have v3 as well, and found I have evernote in the market.

How do you change the UI to Home?

Yeah..I eventually found it. It was the weirdest thing. I even went to the Evernote homepage and used my barcode scanner to search for the app and it turned up nothing in the market. I tried again after about 30 minutes and it was magically there. Very weird.

How do you change the UI to Home?

Go to Settings-->Manage Applications-->HTC Sense and then scroll down a little where it has the section "Launch by default". Select the Clear defaults. Then select your home button and it will ask you if you want to use Home or Sense. Select Home. Once you're done doing everything you need to do with Home, select the home button again and when it asks you if you want to use Home or Sense, select Sense and check the "Use by default" box.

I did all that, and it still doesn't work for those three programs on my phone, at this point I'm just waiting for Better Cut to update and fix it.

Okay what do you mean by "select your button?"

 

[zutmin]

Never mind, I figured it out. The "home" button. lol

 

[zutmin]

Wow, that worked. NEVER would have figured that out on my own. Thanks brah

Oops...yeah, left out the word "home". Glad it worked for you!

Sorry to hear that. Worked like a charm for me, and sounds like zutmin too.
