I have been suffering this ever since I got my Incredible, and I hope someone has an answer.
I use HTCSync to sync my Incredible with Outlook. All of my birthday/recurring events are verified to be "Reminder: NONE"
However, I cannot get the phone to STOP chiming and flashing etc. on these either. This morning, as an example, was a birthday of someone who is not on facebook (so there is no secondary event that I am missing). Still the flashing and chiming.
I do NOT want to silence every possible reminder, I just want the Incredible to honor the "REMINDER: NONE".
Any thoughts?

I am in desperate need of a solution...please help.
The company I work for uses Microsoft Exchange Server for our Email Service and before I rooted my Droid Incredible I was able to use the Exchange Activesync service on my phone to sync with my work's email without a problem.
Now that I rooted my phone I receive an error telling me I am unable to connect to the exchange server. I have already attempted to use "K-9 Email Client" and "Lockpicker" to see if I could connect. No luck... I believe the issue is with a missing certificate but I am not sure. I have already contacted my IT Department at my work which ended up being useless cause they are unaware of how to locate the certificate for our email service.
Anyways if anyone could shed some light on this please do...Thank you!
Also Facebook does not sync contacts, the live feed works fine.
I don't really mind this cause I'm using "FB Sync" to get my friends pictures but I do miss having all of Facebook contacts shown in my Contacts List.
Phone: HTC Incredible
Rom: ClockworkMod 2.5.0.1
Kernel: 2.6.29-Hydra-ocuv-ov-n-v07
unroot with the ruu (that should be somewhere close in the dev section)
and re root with unrevoked3. i have to say, ive tried all the roms except pmf yasr and red and blue, and ive never had all these wierd errors everyone had. my theory is that all the incredibles are made differently. some are more resistant to modding and rooting and others arent. but anyway, just ruu and apply unrevoked3. and be sure to backup contacts and data before ruu

not sure about the email thing, but for your contacts try ensuring that Facebook contacts are selected to show up by going to your contacts list and hitting Menu > View and make sure you have Facebook checked.

Ya I did that and although the option to show Facebook Contacts is available...the list is empty and says I have zero friends. Which is wrong I have over 300 Friends. So the issue has to be with the ROM.
Thread moved to General.
Guys I give up!!!
I've tried two ROMs the one provided by Unrevoked3 by default and JagerRomSense both had the same problem - No Exchange Service and No Facebook Account Sync. I've decided to go back to the Original setup and just wait till the Official Froyo OTA comes out for Verizon. Cause I can't stand having issues with my phone. If you have any comments let me know what you think...Thanks!

This is not a ROM, this is your new recovery which you probably flashed via the unrevoked tool. The unrevoked tool does not provide a ROM, all it does is root your phone and flash Clockwork mod recovery.
I have a feeling this was the start of your problems. You need to understand the differences between these types of things BEFORE you go and start modding your phone.
The company I work for is pretty picky about which phones can connect on their network and I managed to get the incredible up and running. As a hint, we recently purchased a smartphone company. Anyway when the purchase went through and they started letting execs carry the new phones, there were some ActiveSync changes that allowed exchange to work on just about anything that supported the required security policies.
Long story short, I’ve had a few times where i needed to delete the account and reactivate it because of sync problems. In order to do so, it seems like I have to turn lock picker off, setup the account, and then re-enable lock picker if I want that functionality. If you have this program installed, try disabling it, deleting your exchange account, re-adding your account, and then seeing what happens.
If by some strange chance you happen to work for the same company I hinted at above, shoot me a PM here and I’ll get you some instructions I found and essentially translated from the company we just acquired to the Incredible.
I have a phone by said company coming my way; they are expecting most of us to carry it at work. I wonder how hard it will be to switch back and forth…
Hi everybody,
I use my Desire a lot at work and everything was working well until i got this wired problem.
I got a lot of Meeting requests, but when I open one of them I see only a header (from who, subject and when it was sent) in black background.
But "body" is empty! I am missing when the other side want to have this meeting!!!
My colleagues who have Desire doesn't have that problem only me.
What should I do?
Thankful for any guidance!
Anyone?
Still got the problem...
I have the same problem and asked on the forums but never got any reply.
I contacted HTC support and after 15 days or so of troubleshooting (a few wipes too) I got the response that the requested functionality is not implemented in the Desire.
All of my colleagues that have the Desire have the same problem so it's pretty strange that some of your colleagues can see when the meeting takes place...
a (very bad) workaround is to select "propose new time" and look at the meeting time. The settings you see when you get the "propose new time" window are actual meeting times. Still, this is not nearly as good as it was on Windows mobile (it even warned about conflicting times, etc.).
not much of a help...
Whats worse I hade same functionality in the begining, but can't say when exactly it stopped working.

Hi
I have just checked my calendar and I can not see any issues. All details are present and correct as I would expect them to be. Could it have anything to with software version, etc?
Kind regards
Scott
Remove calendars, sync phone, add calendars again? I used to have similar problems, content missing in calendar...

Maybe I misunderstood the problem. My issue is that when the meeting request is in my Inbox I can't see the meeting date/time. Once the meeting is in the calendar everything's fine.
Mofolino, is this the issue you're having?
I'm having same problem with my Wildfire.
As I could understand after performing a thorough search on the internet (many forums, support sites and etc.) - the root cause of the problem is Froyo. This is not device specific issue.
In 2.1 version of the Android everything were fine.
Let's hope they will fix this issue in 2.3
Greets - I cannot figure out how to get my Incredible to STOP blaring alerts at midnight and beyond simply because a friend has a birthday. I have tried changing all the reminders to "NONE" in Outlook, but that information does not synch. Of course, I do not want to disable all alerts. I just wish I could figure out how to get those alerts to stop.
As a temporary measure, I have the phone set to go silent from 9PM until 7AM; at least that way I don't get woken up. But that's not the point.
Anyone know how I can get these 'all day' birthday alerts to stop reminding me, but still let the other alerts (like a doctor's appointment) come through?
Thanks!
Do you have your contacts sync with Facebook or something? Could that be what's syncing it to your calendar causing it?

Yes but ...
Absolutely ... but that is how they got there ... now that they are there, how do I stop them from issuing related reminders?!?!?!
Thanks!
Hello,
I've had my Evo for about a year now....still not rooted, I know, sorry. I recently rooted my G-tablet, so it will probably come soon.
I'm hopeing someone here can help me (or point me to the correct place to ask) with the sync on my phone.
The other day, the phone started freaking out upon trying to sync with my exchange based email. Gmail syncing works fine, the exchange email works fine on my PC through outlook, and on my Tablet.
When the phone trys to sync it says it needs to download some rediculous amount of emails.....this number goes up every day, as I continually get new emails. It starts to download the emails, but gets stuck at 48, always seems to be 48.
The phone chugs on this until i tell it to stop syncing. I feel naked without my mobile email.
Any thoughts? I haven't changed any settings. I haven't tried to remove and re-setup the email. Maybe that would be an easy fix.
Thanks for any help, I hope to get lots of use from this forum and maybe become a contributor if I actually learn anything, haha.
We, as you haven't done, I would uninstall it, then re-try it, as it could be an easy fix.
Yea a fresh start couldn't hurt so I would give that a shot first. Also, if you have any other questions feel free to ask! You're in the right place! I remember being new here and I was clueless as hell.
My only complaint about the One VX so far is with the calendar. The notices are unreliable and the snooze is non-functional. Although I usually get notices, sometimes they do not work. When I do get a notice and try to use the snooze function, I never get another notice. It's the same as dismissing the notice. I have tried snoozing from the lock screen and while the device was not locked.
Is anyone else having this issue? Does anyone know if a solution? HTC support has been much help. After my first support email, they responded with some suggestions but they did not solve the problem. I responded to their questions for more information on the problem but now they seem to be ignoring me. So much for customer relations.
My phone is stock and has not been rooted. I am using the HTC Sync Manager to sync my calendar with Outlook 2010. One of the suggestions from HTC was to create a calendar entry on the phone and not use the sync. This did not correct the snooze issue.
Thanks.
Only thing I can think is to use the Google calendar instead. IIRC there's a way to have it sync with outlook. I knew it's not Tue answer you're probably looking for, but I have to say I use google calendar for just about everything and don't have problems. There's also a great app called maluuba that I've been using for reminders (it's like Siri, so much easier to just say "remind me to take out the trash tomorrow at 8am, or whatever) but that seems to save to google cal too, though it has its own snooze/dismiss function.

Thanks for the response. A friend of mine had already suggested the Google calendar approach but I would really sync with my Outlook calendar at work. Now if maluuba will sync with Outlook that would work for me. I will look into that.
HTC has acknowleged that they are aware of this issue which will require an update to correct. No ETA on the update.
