I'm hoping someone here can help me out. I am having some sync issues with Google Calendar and the native Epic 4g calendar app. I have searched yahoo, google, and the forums here and no one is having an issue exactly like mine and I've tried the fixes recomended for ones that are somewhat similar to my issue. I am on a rooted system. I am running EI22 that has been rooted and deodexed with the modifications listed in the following link.

In google calendar on the pc all of my calendars are selected to be shown and synced. Everything is showing up fine on the computer version. My issue on the phone is that one of the calendars is not even being recognized by the calendar app. The calendars that did show up synced fine and everything showed up. I went in to manage apps and cleared the data from the calendar app and re synced the data. After that the same calendars showed up in the sync list and all of them were selected but one of the calendars didn't show its items on the calendar. I hate to bother you all with this issue but I just flat out couldn't figure it out myself. Thanks in advance for all of your help.

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.
Hi.
I have a HTC Hero running stock 2.1, My work has recently moved to Google Apps and while I can have multiple GMail accounts on there, I can't seem to have both my work and personal calendar on there at the same time.
I can make a new calendar and it will sync it, but it won't sync the primary work calendar.
This is apparently solved in Froyo, but the Hero won't be getting it. Does anyone know if there is a custom ROM that'll make this happen?
Thanks
Running stock 2.1 here and I have all my google calenders showing.
Open calendars, menu, settings, calendars and check the ones you want to be showed on you phone.
The only thing I can think about is that all my calendars are owner by one google account.
But may be you can share a calendar between your pvt account and you work account and this could do the trick.

My HTC calendar widget has stopped working it just shows the "Loading" text and even if you go into the calendar app no events are present. Going to Sync/Accounts and selecting my Google account shows the circular arrow next to "Sync Calendar" - not sure if this means it is trying to sync, but it is there all the time and the arrow is not animated. I don't think this is to do with the Calendar app specifically, since if I use the Google widget nothing shows up there either.
Occasionally, it will work after I reset the phone, but otherwise it is mostly stuck in this state. Any tips on how to diagnose the problem or how to get it working again?
I have the same issue. I found out that when I am also using the Exchange ActiveSync calendar account sync - the calendar's functionality malfunctions more often.
I too have yet to fully understand the root cause for this isseue.
One thing, though, when calendar is stuck in syncing, it consumed a lot of cpu and it blocks other apps from working properly.
I would really appreciate more comments regarding this issue.
Thanks!
Does anything sync and do you ahve the sync service running?
It sometimes works, sometimes not. When it does, UK Holidays, Facebook and my standard Google Calendar syncs, but other calendars on GC do not. They show up on the calendars list fine, but they are not displayed. Actually now looking at it, it seems it may just be loading a cache of previous information, since there's events on the calendar that I've sinced deleted. The sync service I'm pretty sure is running, called Sync and Accounts under OSmonitor? That one's running. Everything else on my phone (Friend Stream, mail, weather) syncs fine, it's just this damned calendar.
I hadn't noticed the Exchange ActiveSync calendar prior to this - it was set to sync even though I don't have anything on it. I have since disabled it and it seems to have improved slightly, but the calendar still shows up calendars list. I've emailed HTC about this, hopefully they'll have some idea of how to fix it.
Ok quick update - HTC emailed me telling me to clear the cache. Having done so (and disabling ActiveSync which I wasn't using anyways) my calendar seems to be working. Anybody with this problem might want to try this and see if it works.
Same as you, I had lot of sync problems with Exchange. It was completely unreliable, until I discovered Laurie's blog !
http://laur.ie/blog/2010/09/exchange-2010-sp1-sync-with-android-froyo/
I installed the Google stock 2.2 email apk (as described in the blog) and after few minutes my calendar was fully synchronized and I receive emails in push. That's great
I am not sure that would solve your issue but it is worth trying it.
(make sure to delete the HTC exchange account).
Hope this helps.
I have my Google Calendar set to sync.. and I have my Calendar online show friends bdays and they all show up just fine on the website. But it doesn't seem like they sync to the phone. Any ideas why?

I had problem with google calendar updating. In the calendar I would hit refresh with no effect. If you go to the main menu, settings, sync, and hit the gmail sync, I think it syncs correctly then. Since I manually sync all my apps for battery reasons I just put the "sync all" widget on my homescreen and press it when I want everything to update. Hope that makes some kind of sense and helps.

I've tried to do a manual sync as well. The 'Us Holidays' calendar shows up on my phone. But not the Birthdays. I put the birthdays in my Gmail contacts.. They sync to the calendar online without a problem. For some reason they just don't go to my phone
I had this problem with a friend's shared calendar and was able to fix it.
Verify under Google Calendar you are actively viewing that calendar
Under Accounts and disable the calendar sync for your google account
Under Applications, clear data for "Calendar Storage" note this is different from "Calendar"
Re-enable the calendar sync to resync
That should work. If not, try reversing the order. I did it myself, and a friend of mine fixed his phone after i gave him similar directions.

Worked perfect. Can't believe I didn't think of that before. Thanks.
Actually. It worked for some people but not all. So weird.
Yesterday my gf said she wasn't getting all of her Google calendars synced on her phone. She has her gmail calendar and a couple from work that are shared. So I cleared the calendar memory, now none of the gmail calendars will sync, but the exchange calendars does. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
I've run into this problem as well. Here's what I've come up with:
First, have her log into her main Gmail account and go to the calendar. She'll have to select (on the left, you know like 'checking' them almost) whichever calendars she wants to sync with.
Once she does that, you'll need to clear out all settings on your phone. As in, wipe data from the calendars. Once that's done, go into the Calendar settings and re-sync. You'll then see the calendars re-appear when you choose which ones you want to show up on your phone's calendar.
Hope that made sense, this has worked for me.
You rock! Thanks my friend! Gave you a litle "Thank you".

No problem. I had literally just done that process no more than 20 minutes before you had posed that question. Glad it worked for ya.
I have no trouble getting it to sync with calendars I manually add in iCal format. The problem I have are the optional ones that Google provides. Specifically the NFL football schedule ones. My phone doesn't seem to want to pick that calendar up at all.
When they're listed on the main calendar page, are they colored like your accounts you can sync to?

Yep. I tried searching for the problem and apparently it has nothing to do with the phone in particular, but the format Google puts their sports calendars in. Lame move by Google. Also saw that an alternative option is to use Yahoo's sports team calendar. Just tried it out and works like a charm.
I have the same issue with all sports calendars...apparently its not just the epic or android..but a problem on the iphone too

I just flashed the Revolution HD 3.6.1 from 3.6.0 and now my stock calendar widget and calendar app only allow me to sync the "pc sync" calendar option. Neither of my Gmail calendars even show up in the list of calendars to display. I've done everything from clearing the data in the settings menu, I've checked my calendars online. Any idea what I can do to sync these?
