I am a bit peeved that the TB has been in development for months and that upon release we cannot set up an account on the HTC sense web site. Are we forgotten already. I am aware that this phone is already obsolete as far as the planning stages goes for new devices, but I hope we weren't left out to dry

Htc sense rant

I read something on a Google search (it may have been Gizmodo or Engadget) that said something like Verizon and HTC weren't on the same page and that HTC phones on Verizon may never get htcsense.com capabilities. It was completely speculation, but may end up being true.
Personally, I am a corporate user and can do a lot of the same things the htcsense.com site can do, but I realize that the general population would want to use it. I hope the rumor was false and that the TBolt will one day appear on the site and the site works. I have not seen htcsense.com functioning ever, but if someone has, I would be curious to know if it is really a game changer.
It was available on the Inspire IE: HTC Likes/HTC Hub & it also came with HTC Book Shelf pre loaded with books to read & you could order more at HTC Hub. The Hub had many extras you could DL. It was really quite awesome. I hope to find a way to get it on the TB.
Have you seen this? [MOD][3.20.2011] Working htcsense.com syncing - xda-developers

Dumb question, as I am not normally a Rooter, but how do you flash the Zip file onto a phone?
Place/transfer this zip file on your sd card, Reboot into recovery (via rom manger or bootloader) choose "install from zip from SD card" in recovery and reboot ...

Tried that but it says "Applicaton not installed." There is more than just the APK file, so you would need to know where to put the other files. I hope I can figure this out as I want to try it.
It won't show up in the app drawer... the other files in that zip are for updater scripts to install this APK in recovery
from the OP in that thread: "Go to settings, accounts and sync and choose to add an account. Choose htc sense."
....
Scratch that, Astro won't install it correctly ....
It works if you flash it with recovery, it just did it

It's not there. I rebooted the phone and also tried reinstalling, it still tells me it is not installed.

OK, from the thread of the guy who made the APK:
I did that and it says it installed, rebooted and checked Accounts & Sync and it still isn't there. I am getting frustrated. :icon_evil:
Maybe I will wait until I get home...

How (specifically) do you flash it without root access?
