I have a strange problem with syncing my google calendar on my G1. I have 3 calendars (main calendar, weather and holidays). 2 of them are syncing fine but my main calendar starts to sync but never stops. Besides this is draining my battery, the events from my main calendar don't appear in my calendar app.
This is what I tried:
delete data of calendar and calendar storage in application manager
check if my main calendar is checked in my calendars in the calendar app
auto sync
sync manually
deleted and readded calendar in calendar app
wipe
I have seen some threads, where people reported that contacts don'T sync or even calendar doesn't but no solutions. Any help?
anyway...
I flashed back to cyanogens 3.9.2 and all goes smooth. I only wonder, why all the others with 3.9.5 don't have this issue. But I will post that in the other thread.
Mods, if you want to close this thread... you can go ahead.
Thanks.
Just updated to biffmod 2.0.1 - Leaving on a jet plane. Everything works great and I had a clean install. I was situating my phone apps etc and I remember I needed to add an appointment to the calendar.
I went to add a calendar event, I get a message:
"/!\ No calendars - You have no calendars."
When i go to the Calendar App> Menu> More> Calendars, i see that i indeed have no calendars.
Is there a fix for this? Cause I kinda need this functioning.
Are you logged into Google?
Is sync is enabled?
If not have you forced calendars to sync lately?
Is there a calendar at https://www.google.com/calendar for you?
Answers
1)Are you logged into Google?
I don't have a data plan but I have done so through wifi.
2)Is sync is enabled?
I manually enable it when I'm at a hotspot on campus.
3)If not have you forced calendars to sync lately?
How do i force calendars to sync?
4)Is there a calendar at google dot com / calendar for you?
There is a calendar associated with the e-mail address I'm using, yes.
Fix
The only way I was able to fix this was to redo the clean install of BiffMod 2.0.1
If anyone is searching for a solution to this problem, I suggest you back your stuff up, wipe it, install your mod of choice from scratch, and re-customized your phone back to the way it was.
I had no option under Accounts & Sync to even sync a calendar.
I've looked all over google and forums and there really is no fix for the problem that anyone has come up with including ADB Pushes. Factory reset that sucker and start from scratch.
[REMOVED OP question: How can I get google calendar (calendar) to work/sync on mn4.5.6?]
Calendar app appears to handle 3 calendars: My Calendar, Google Calendar, and US Holiday Calendar. It sync's well with the Google Calendar (online). Recently, I added a couple of appointments using the Calendar App on my NC. Later, I noticed they were not on my Google calendar. So I checked on my NC and discovered the multiple calendars. When adding an event (appointment), I get the option to select the calendar. But when I go to edit the event, that option is missing. Is this programmed this way or am I missing something other than new events (appointments)?
The standard calendar app doesnt show all calendars. If I add new calendars though there are shown in the standard Calendar app.
Weird enough some third party apps do allow to select all other gmail app calendars, but they are marked as inactive?

Weird, when I go into the calendar settings and click calendars, all of them show up.

With google calender the first time the sync occurs, it happnes with the calenders that are enabled google calendar on the web.
Here is what u can do .
1. Go to google.com/calendar and make all the calendars visible
2. In phone - settings /manage applications delete the data from calendar and calender storage.
3. then settings / accounts and sync - re sync calendar.
Now all the calenders will come in calendar app in phone.
Select the ones that u want.
Thanky you
I tried your method of deleting the data and then re-syncing the accounts. But, now even the main calendar from my google account has disappeared and refuses to show up. Is there something missing here??? Cal widget for example shows all the calendars in its configurations but does not show any of the events from the same.
there is something wrong with the default calendar. I am running stock rom xxki3.
Hi, I had similar issue, i think this is one of known issue on android, I tried "clear data" method, sometimes it may work, sometime it doesnt. I google for solution and I found this temporary workaround would solve the issue, atleast for me..
you may want to try this:-
1. Go to android setting, application (all), clear data on calendar storage (WARNING-this step will wipe all calendar entries which were saved internally on your phone)
2. Go to market, download & install this app called: Business calendar (FREE)
(This app have direct connection to google calendar, which will also download and keep all of your calendars entries (including sub calendars)
3. Open business calendar, login with your gmail account, and it will start sync
(manual: more > sync now) it may take few mins, be patient.
this way, your stock or default calendar will get synced as well automatically...try this out
Thanks for the tip. After selecting the sub-calendars on the app, the default calendar also started recognizing the same. Weird.....
This tips is working.
First time, this doesn't work, I had to erase my google account (by the way to refresh my apps ^^).
But the second time, it worked.

I think this is a bug in Samsung Calendar app. The first time the phone synchronize with google calendar, the phone will download all calendars available for the google account. Each calendar has two flags, sync and visible. The first time, all calendars will be flag unsync and hidden (not visible) except our main calendar. After that we can use the calendar app to choose which calendar will be sync and visible. The problem with Samsung Calendar app, if the calendar is flagged as hidden, then the Calendar apps won't recognize the calendar at all, so we can't change the flag to visible. This does not happen with my other phone. So this is not Android bug. I think this bug exist since Samsung Galaxy S. Someone in Galaxy S use sql editor to edit the calendar database. Meanwhile I use Calengoo. Bussiness Calendar can be used as well
Hi all since ICS came out been having problems syncing my entire Google calendar to my Galaxy S2. The phone would only sync the past month and forget the rest and I have been looking all over the internet for a solution but found nothing, some solution also required installing third party apps, but I found a solution that does not require third party apps.
What you need to do; First check what you are using to sync your Google account
Now if you are using Google it will only sync the past month.
Setting>Account and Sync>Add Account>Google
If you are syncing your calender through Google you will only get 1 month in the past.
Now for those that want there entire calendar on there phone like me (past/future events) this is what I did.
>turn off wifi
>disable Google sync
>clear calendar (settings>applications>all) clear calendar and calendar storage
> now turn your wifi on and make sure google sync is disabled.
> now add your G-mail through Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync
>Fill in the details you [email protected]/password next
>NOW about half way down in the settings list, there is a option to sync calendar
(Period to sync calendar) (select all Calendar) (at the bottom choose what you would like to be synced)
>Select all calendar
>name your account and hit done
> Go to Accounts and sync and manually push sync wait about 2-3 minutes depends on the amount of events in your calendar to download to the phone and you are done.
Please leave a comment if you tried this and it worked.
Good luck
