Hi
I have 2 Google Apps accounts (one personal and one work)
From what I can tell, you can only sign in with one account into Android and to access the other Mail i will have to use IMAP. Fair enough, i can live with that. But i'm not sure i can live without both cals or google talk on both (or any other aspects which I have yet to check on, such as lattitude, although I cant actually find latitude on my maps app.)
Is there a way of
* syncing more than 1 calendar?
* logging into more than one account in google talk (IM app or others) as when you access the IM prog it brings up a page which looks like it should list all of the accounts you want to access... which, if you cant access more than 1, is a little pointless from what i can make out.
I dont suppose cupcake makes any of this possible does it?
cheers
Hi,
I know that the calendars can be done.
I have several google and apps accounts.
The account you use as the primary needs
to be given FULL access to the other calendar.
Go to the secondary account and do the sharing
and access stuff. I had to dig around a little for
the right procedure in the google help forums. Once
your primary user can edit events on the web for the
secondary calendar then all should be well. Remember
to color code them. I am currently working with three
calendars. They all will show up as one and color coded.
You can't open separate instances for each calendar.
When you add an event on your phone you get a dropdown
to choose which calendar to add it to.
K9 Mail (free app on the Market) is an excellent client that supports multiple IMAP/POP3 accounts.
For calendar sync, it's a little more trickier. You need to share your 2nd calendar with your main one by doing the following:
Sign into Google with your 2nd account.
Go to Calendar, and click on Settings link (top right corner)
On the Calendar Settings page go to "Calendars" tab.
Click the "Share this calendar" link.
Under the "Share with specific people" section, enter the e-mail address of your primary account, select "Make changes AND manage sharing" permission setting, click the "Add Person button, and finally click the "Save" button.
Log out of Google.
Sign into Google with your primary account and go to Calendars.
Go to Settings and verify that the calendar from your 2nd account is now listed under "My Calendars" section.
On your G1 open the Calendar app
Press the Menu button, select "More" and then "My calendars" option.
Press the Menu button again and select "Add calendars" option. This should sync up and present you a list with your 2nd account's calendar.
Select it, save and exit the Calendar app.
Repeat steps 1 through 12 for adding more calendars from your other accounts.
You're done.
I still haven't found a way to sync contacts from multiple gmail accounts. Maybe there's an app for that?
har har har everything works except this hmm. How bout adding all your work contacts to your regular account and make it into a group named "work". That way they don't mix or you can pull up fast.

That work-around is a one-way sync though. Time to put in a feature request at Android Google Code group.
Would anyone know how to keep sent messages in "sent" folder?
Using Gmail IMAP my messages get sent but can't find them on my phone after send.
On line all show in my Gmail account.
go to the options of the messaging, "message" tab and check the second one "keep copies of sent items in sent folder"
Got it selected but no messages stay in any "sent" folder
In Outlook it works like this, don't know if its the same with IMAP, but worth a shot
Menu > Tools > Manage Folders
Then select the foders you want to sync

+1 Was just going to say this when I saw your reply.
Thats how I set mine on gmail & IMAP.
Just note you cant choose 'manage folders' while it is connecting / downloading / sending mail so wait for it to finish first
I have an eris. Maybe I am missing something but it is syncing over 800 contacts and I have no way of telling it to ONLY sync a specific group. Did this option disappear or is this a bug?
thanks
found the location..
Go into People
- Menu
- View
Uncheck "Show auto Gmail contacts"
hit done and that will no only show your contacts you made

This works but doesn't allow you to only sync contacts that are in the "Phone_Contacts" group, for instance. In 1.5 you could select which groups from your google contacts to sync to the phone, but now I think that option is gone.
So, I logged in with my GMail account upon loading the phone for the first time. Well I wanted to use the nifty Sense email widget and it asked me to log in again so I did. Well I am getting dual notifications of emails now and I cannot figure out how to remove the second entry of my GMail. I input my company email info and it went under Settings > Account. When I look there, a Google account is listed and when i try to remove it is says you must reset the phone to remove this account. How can I unload the second instance of GMail from the Mail app and leave the original account alone?
Also, is there a way to switch the App Drawer button with the Phone button?
Thanks
to get gmail out of the Mail app, open the mail app, then menu -> account list and pick your gmail account, then menu -> settings -> delete account.
Can't help on the second front tho, good luck!
if you dont want the 2x notifications, you dont need to delete the Gmail account from the stock app (witch is automatic if you are signed into google)just turn off all the notifications in the stock google mail app.

I feel pretty retarded, I noticed that right after I posted this. I looked a couple times and for some reason didnt see it, thanks.
I hardly use my phone as a phone so i want to set priority to the Apps I guess, stupid phone button on a phone, who woulda thought...
I had the same thing but I just went to settings in the HTC Mail app and turned off notifications then swapped the mail app on the home screen with the gmail app since I like the gmail one better. That way I just get the gmail notifications which I like better and I can still use the HTC Mail widget, although I'm still undecided on whether I'll keep the widget or not.
Ok i searched thru the search and havent found my answer. I set up gmail calander and inside it set up some events to follow, like Us Holidays and sport teams calanders. It set up nicely on my laptop, but when i sync on my phone, they show up in the list of connected calanders but are now in the actual calander. Am i doing something wrong?, like looking at the samsung calander and not the Gmail calander. I am on Froyo Dk28 rooted aswell. HELP!!

I didn't fully catch your question, but If I understand correctly:
have you tried going to the regular calendar?: open app drawer, select Calendar. Then Menu, Settings, Calendars
Here you can check or uncheck the calendars you want to show; the list should include all of your calendars, including "other" calendars you added through GCal. After you do that, hit the back button, go to Calendar Sync and make sure the calendar is checked to sync (if you want that). I'm pretty sure most of the other 3rd party calendar apps either use the same method or pull from these settings.
If it's not showing up in the list, uncheck the Calendar Sync from your google account. Then goto Settings->Applications and clear application data for "Calendar Storage" (not "Calendar"). Then recheck the calendar Sync to resync, that should work.
that didnt work, anyone else got any ideas?? Please very annoying not having the holidays on the phone

that fix helped me with my calendar sync issue after upgrading to froyo eb13, thanks!
Had same issue. Clearing Calenar and Sync storage fixed it right up for me. Didn't even need to uncheck the calendars.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
same issue here... clearing the cache actually made me lose some of the calendars I had synced and now can't get them back...
Haven't been able to get a calender my wife has shared with me since upgrading at all.
Before I upgraded, I forgot to save the phone calendar since it doesn't sync to google. I used MyBackup Root before I upgraded to save the all calendars. So, I restored the calendar in MyBackup Root and it took all my events from all the calendars it backed up and smushed them into the main calendar. I didn't catch it before it synced to google and it made a mess. I exported the calendar to try to fix it and deleted the calendar to find that the export is corrupted...DOH!!!
Anyone else have a way to solve this issue with MyBackup and putting all calendars into one?

OMG THANK YOU! Lost a bunch of appointments when I went to DK28, and this fixed it!
You know i dont think i read things correctly the 1st time, either that or i should have tried it a 2nd time because by GEORGE IT WORKED. AWESOME!!
Had all my calendars except 1 before i tried the 'fix'... then did the fix...and lost all my calendars...
i dunno what i did but i got one of them back... 1! .... but still not all of them.. later im going to try to replace the calendar apk file

Took me a minute to find the setting, on my Epic 2.2.1 its Settings > Applications > Manage > All > Calendar Storage
WOW. Clearing the cache. I sort of felt it was the cache that was corrupt, but did not know the 'ALL' tab on Apps existed!!
THANKS A TON!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was missing some events/appointments in EB13 calendar. Unchecking sync, then clearing data in "calendar storage" then rechecking sync did the trick! Thank you!!
