[Q] CM 11 for Defy : Google Calendar - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have updated to the 09-01 nightly. I updated to this nightly after using safewipe. I am not able to use my google calendar. I get an error message "Couldn't sign in: there was a problem communicating with google server. Try later"
If this is a bug, its not listed in the known bugs list.
I searched about this error, in some thread it was mentioned that this could happen if the gapps are of wrong version.
So i updated to the latest gapps minimal. Am still not able to sign in to google calendar.
Am i missing something ? could any one help me to resolve this ?
Thanks,

Are you referring to the stock calendar app in CM11? If so, you need to install "7-15_AOSP_Calendar_Sync_4.4.4_signed.zip" found here: "xero-filez.us/files/Android/GApps/BaNkS/Add-Ons/" -- at least that what fixed it for me.

facebook issue

hi guys, i am using a rooted nexus one with CM 5.0.6 rom and latest radio.
the issue i am having is that I cant seem to successfully upload a pic to facebook - it keeps stalling at 40% or 90% and after a while says failed.
This is very annoying considering I am using this N1 as my 'social' phone and my BBerry as email phone.
I have been trying to look for a solution but cant find any - I would appreciate any help you guys can share
Ps. also is there a way to remove Icons from the Menu - such as Amazon MP3
thanks
richie
i got this problem on 5.0.5.3, i just installed fb and worked fine after.
thanks for the reply mate.
how do you mean you installed fb? it comes pre installed riight? ive tried to go into market place and install the 1.4 or so version but it says installation unsuccessful.
do you think its worth going back to 5.0.53 ?
hi again, when i try and install the latest FB app from market it says - unsuccessful cause its unsigned? - not sure why. Any solution to this?

maybe try un-installing the current FB app first then try installing from market. I think if you upgrade the FB app you no longer have the contact sync
thanks Teidullie, I was able to install the FB 1.1.4 on my nexus 1. But that meant changing roms to modacos or stock rom. for some reason it would not install on CM's rom both .53 and .6.
I am not able to upload images to FB though when I am on 3g, over wifi it works fine.
Everytime i try, it stalls on x% and says failed.
Any help?
facebook sync still working ?

glad you found a work around but that sucks that it will only work over wifi. Did you loose the facebook contact sync feature when you upgraded?
hi again - the fb contact sync is still there - which is good. but id much rather be able to upload pics on the go. I am surprised that alot of users arent having this issue.

I have also some problem, but i have setup the upload pictures via email in facebook, and just share via email instead of facebook application.
It gives you a private email address (somethink like [email protected]) fthat will upload anything you send there to your facebook account.
I'm on CM 5.0.6 and uploaded photos to FB yesterday evening without issue. Using the FB app that came built in to the ROM.
thanks for the reply guys.
@jcuadrado how do i setup that facebook email ? or is that allocated to me by my username? ie [email protected]

ICS and ROM Quick Questions

Sorry guys, I unlocked, rooted and flashed the latest EOS nightly #33. All has gone well, but I cant see the Market app, or find a way to link my Google account to get my calendar, mail and apps restored.
Could someone nudge me in the right direction please?!
thanks
EDIT - In case anyone has this problem, the link to the GA package is below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1396251
You'll need to install the GApps package linked in the thread for the ROM. AOSP ROMs generally do not include the Google Apps by default and must be installed separately.
There should be a .zip file you can flash from recovery.
You need to flash gapps as those are google apps and required to be a separate download. Check the eos thread, they link the latest gapps there (v8 I believe)

ok thanks, will look now, and any ideas about the Android Market app?
You could try uninstalling the Market App in the settings and then have it redownload the market. That should work.
It came with the Google Apps package - I have included the link in my first post just in case anyone has the same problem. Thanks for you help all
thanks again

[Q] Force Close of voice search

Hey guys,
got a problem. I've installed CM 10.1 M1, and flashed 201212 Gapps. Everything is working fine, except the voice search. When I click on the mic, for example in Google Now, Voice search and Google now, closes. Got the same problem on AOKP.
Whats the problem!?

Did you update the app within the play store?

Can't update it. Made a video of the problem. It's uploading to youtube...
Here it is:

HELP!
There's some kind of user error going on here. I've experienced zero problems and have never seen this reported in the CM10.1 thread.
Well, it's a "normal" problem when flashing the gapps. Normally the only thing you've to do, is to install the update through the market. However, it's really strange that you don't see the update on the market.
Maybe someone could upload the .apk for you. Unfortunately I'm currently unrooted so i can't do it.
Did you flash the official gapps from goo.im? Here's the link if you need it. http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20121212-signed.zip
AW: [Q] Force Close of voice search
Yes, I've flashed the official gapps from your link, but thanks anyway.
The problem is now solved! The update appeared in the market, and solved the problem.

had the problem of it force closing, then flashed the next cm10.1 nightlies and it opens but still no voice search..
updated in play store and still nothing.. i have since realised that its not only the google now app. but all voice dictation/search apps..
no soundcloud.voicerecorder. voice typing in swiftkey. none of its recognising anything.. but calls work. which is a plus
anybody able to shed some light on what i can do?
its a note 2 n7105lte on cm10.1 nightlies.
thanks..
I don't know if that'll help you, but I just got mine working by updating the app "Google Search" in the Play Store. The "Voice Search" app had been up to date prior to that, but it still wouldn't work.
All fixed after next nightlies

Google Calendars not even showing on syncing options

Hello,
i have just installe CM 11.0 on my i9505. I had the same issue earlier with another ROM and though it was a ROM related problem. The calendar entry in my Google Account Sync options is not there. Even though my Gmail and all the rest works fine, when i open the calendar the first time it asks me to add a calendar by logging in my new or existing account (never asked me before as it should get all this from the first boot process). When i input my credentials to log in it tells me that the server is not reacheable in a flash. I have had this with both my G Accounts. Is it a 4.4 porting issue? Any possible solution?
Thanks to anyone that wants to give it a try to this one..
I've already checked the security options, Privacy Guard is not active.
I've also checked the connected apps in my G Account privacy settings and deleted double entries caused by many ROMs installs and Devices.
Have you found solution to this? I have same problem..

In my case it was simply connected to the kind of rom that i was using. If you try the Jamal ported Stock ROM from the Nexus 5 + xposed framework you should have everything working and as similar as possible to CM!

[Q] Problem with download cm themes on Google play store

Hello I have a problem with downloading a themes Google play store. Every time I want to download and install any cm theme from Google Play Store I get the same Error: unknown error code during application installation "-400". First time I see this error any others application installs with no problem . Does anyone know what it's means or had before that problem or know how to fix it? Thank you for any help and sorry for my bad English. PS I use the last build of Purity+ ROM (cm theme chooser included) with the last Google gapps and hells doctor #2 18 kernel. My phone is Google Nexus 4.
Force close and clear cache and data of the Play Store.
If that doesn't work, remove and re-add your Google account on your device.
Let me know if you got it fixed.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Free mobile app
Thank You for answer but I already did all that steps before because it was mentioned in some other posts with Google play store errors but not mine "-401" and "-400". Unfortunately that didn't help and the problem stay the same. I even try to flash the older versions of Purity+ ROM with old gapps and kernel and that didn't fix nothing. On Purity+ thread people says that they don't have problems with Cm themes on that ROM so I don't know why I can't download them from Google Play Store and use them .
