Syncing with Google Calendar

Has anyone been able to successfully sync with Google Calendar? I'd like to try goosync.com but I wasn't sure if it was a reliable service. Over the air syncing is a great feature id like...

I found this today, and it works for me.

Not enough experience to know how it handles conflicts.
I did notice that my google calendar synced up to my wm5 calendar, and my wm5 calendar synced to my groupwise calender (via intellisync mobile suite).
So looks good!

Try this instead..the freeware version suites my needs fine...no third party..just the phone and google calendar..and supports repeating events which some of the others don't...

Has both an installer and a cab.

Any luck using oggsync with WM6
Has anyone had any luck using oggsync with WM6? I am having problems getting it to connect and was wondering if anyone had a fix for this yet? Thanks for reading.

i used goosync or whatever its called a while back and had to uninstall it. i had duplicates of every event in my calender. each time i synced it would just make another copy. not to mention the billions off notification reminders. i had to end up erasing everything and starting from scratch.
that was my personal experirence

Google Calendar Sync
5 March 2008 Google Calendar Sync allows you to sync events between Google Calendar and Microsoft Outlook Calendar.

You can now access your Google Calendar account from your mobile phone! Just visit mobile.google.com/calendar/ with your phone's web browser and once you're logged in, you'll see your list of upcoming events with date and time information in an easy-to-browse format.

[Q] Bug "No Calendar" - Cant add events

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.

Calendar does not sync all Gmail Apps Calendars!!!!

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?
How do i get teh calendar to sync all Gmail Apps Calendars?

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

[Q] Aggrevating calendar issues...

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.

Google calendar Caldav sync?

I run a Linux server with a Caldav server and it worked flawlessly with the stock calendar app from 1.5, but that is now gone.
I have successfully installed Google Calendar on my Ultratablet, but it appears different than the one on my phone.I don't see anywhere in
settings to add another calendar.I accomplished this on the phone with DavDroid + the stock Google Calendar. Any ideas?
