Hello everybody,
i've a strange problem with Google Calendar, the MIUI Rom (developer 1.8 and stable 2.3.5) and my HTC Desire HD.
I specify that i've already searched on the forum for similar issues and i've already posted on a couple of italian forum, but i've found nothig...because i'm a noob but not a nasty noob
The problem is this:
Google Calendar badly syncronize the week-end (only the sunday) of one of my calendars.
It moves forward of a week or two the events that are on a sunday.
So, i find sundays without events, sundays with 2 events and all the sunday's events moved forward...
I have 3 caledars.
This one is the one with my job turns and it's the only that has problems.
I created it using some features of Google Calendar, just like "repeat every 7 weeks" and so on...
I started experiencing this problem when i switched to MIUI Rom (developer).
When i was using the stock HTC Rom everything worked well.
I've just made a full wipe and flashed the MIUI rom Stable, but the problem is still there. Even if i haven't restored calendar data with backup tool.
I've tried to delete "Calendar Archive", "Google Calendar" and "Google Calendar Sync" data and cache, but when it syncronize again the problem remains.
That's kinda weird and disappointing....
It seems a problem of the calendar itself...
I hope you can help me!
Thank you!
A little update, if someone's in interested or willing to help.
I've done a full wipe and i've changed ROM, switching from MIUI to CyanogenMod 7.
I've reinstalled all the apps from scratch, from the market, not from Titanium Backup or similar.
Anywaym i still have the Google Calendar issue.
I suppose it's related to the calendar itself but i don't know what could cause it.
I'm going to change the weekends in the calendar, avoiding to create them with "repeat every X days" and trying to do a singular event for every day.
Any suggestion?
Someone else has experienced that?
Thank you!

I would try a non CM based rom. As MIUI is built off the same code so any issues MIUI has will most likely be on CM roms as well.
Thanks!
You're right, i didn't think about it...
It's a shame because i really love CM and i like MIUI too...
I think it will try to recreate from scratch my calendar, without any "repeat", first of all.
If it's gonna work...good for me
I don't wanna leave CM just for a calendar issue...
I'll let you now the results of my tests!
Bye.
As i imagined, if i cancel all the events on the sundays and i re-create them without using any "repeat any X days" it works well and the bug is gone.
It's kinda strange and silly but i'll take it as it is.
I hope this will help someone else with similar problems.
Best regards.

Hey guys,
I've tried a few of the Eris-based ROMs, and they are all pretty damn decent, my kudos to the devs.
But one common problem I am having is that when I try to set up the initial sync between Astrid and Remember The Milk, I get a "Page cannot be displayed" error. It's as though Astrid has no access to the web in order to establish that link with RTM.
Does anyone have a solution to this, or any other suggestions I can try? I've come to rely heavily on Astrid and it kills me to change back to another ROM.
Thanks in advance.
Edit: To be clear, I have no problems or connectivity issues with Email / Browser / Maps on both Mobile and Wifi data.
There is an issue with the leaked ROM and HTTP requests from within apps. For instanc, while Gmail can get my emails, when I click the show pictures button nothign comes up. Urbanspoon has the same problem as you described above. I think it is a common problem on all the ROM's based on the Eris leak
Thanks for the response...
Bummer.
That would be the same reason why babbler and bloo cant gain access to facebook then to be granted permissions, bugger.
I think I've had the same trouble with NavLauncher's automatic brut.all maps downloader.... I've got perfect signal and mobile internet, everything else is working, but the maps.apk just won't download.
Yes, I have the same problems, but it seems that some people don't have them.
I have seen reports that Facebook sync works and have found very few other people mentioning these problems on ROM specific threads.
No solution yet
I can confirm that problem with astrid and any other apps that make http requests
its so sad, astrid is _so_ useful :/

I wouldn't call it sad. Sad is losing a loved one, or popping a testicle. I think its unfortunate, but sad is not an emotion I feel towards a week or two without the use of a task list application.
Got the same issue with a few apps (pagesjaunes, wapedia)... I'm hoping somone will find a fix! I don't want to give up my rom and go back to 1.5...
Edit : Does everybody gets this error? Is it in all eris leak based roms? (I run Defiance). I wiped everything but did not format my sdcard when I flashed the 2.1 rom, coming from MCR 3.1...

I was kidding still - its not really fortunate that it doesnt work
for tasks you can try gtasks in the market, its free and syncs with your Google task list and if you use pure calendar it will also display on the due dates.

I don't think it's everybody...
There are just too few comments in this thread for it to be a generic problem.
Nah, i think it is @nprussell has even spoken about it several times in his VillianROM thread.
Doh! It looks like this is even happening in the Legend leak! (BeHero 1.3.1)
I asked the question in the BeHero thread at HTCPedia and indeed it seems that the issue is not resolved :/
I'll have to stick with MCR for now...
This issue is not specific to 2.1: I've had this with my completely stock 1.5 original ROM back from Hero release here in .nl (august 2009).
It's the primary reason I went to RememberTheMilk, but now that I've done so I'm convinced that RTM is better for me than Astrid anyway. But that's another discussion
As to resolving the original problem: I have no clue how. Sorry...
It would be nice if the devs could at least acknowledge that this is indeed a bug with their cooked ROMs in their "not working" lists.
It may not be a big deal to some, but it's a deal-breaker to many.

Yeah that would be nice..
I'm trying out the latest Legend alpha from benocharm, fingers crossed it's fixed
Will update this post shortly
Hullomail
i have exactly the same problem using hullomail. its annoying me alot. but also, i just love 2.1 so god dam much, it makes up for it. it does need recognising as a bug though.

Wooohooo!!!
We are back in business
I can confirm Astrid - RTM sync is working once again in the latest Legend ROM leak.
So far this leak is available from http://htcpedia.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2275
But note the ROM is a little laggy/slow, but everything seems to working ok, from the last 20 mins i have been using it
im really sad.
i absolutely love this rom and appreciate you releasing such a high level, fully functional rom, virus.
i cant get the stock sense (3.0) email to stop force closing on beta1.3. it will open, but i cannot see any of my emails whatsoever. i HAVE seen them [once] while being on this rom however. I have also tried to just use the email widget to view emails. the emails will populate on the widget but when i choose a line item to open, it will force close before the email comes up.
i rely heavily on email and calendar functions since i work in a corporate job and cant go without these features even for a moment.
i didnt see that anyone else was having this issue. i had to purchase enhanced email from the market but it abandons the htc sense calendar feature totally. can someone send me a life boat? thanks everyone for helping people daily like myself because you genuinely care.
If there is no fix, can anyone recommend a ROM with everything tested and working until Virus can fix the issue? Is it just a ME problem?
i will have to flash over a new rom tonight unfortunately
does anyone have any recommendations? im not partial to a sense rom. need something full functional and battery life and fast performance is important to me. can anyone recommend one?

Cm7 /sbc kernel...... awesomesauce~
but ATM.... synergy 3.0
a couple of things
First off, this is posted in the wrong section. Being as though it's a question, it should be posted in Q&A.
Second, regarding your e-mail issue - I've been using V's Kingdom ROM since the beginning, and I have absolutely no problem with E-mail. I am also a corporate business user, and my E-mail, Calendar, etc functions work flawlessly. I can even print those items, using the "Print" menu function. Sounds like you got a bad download or flash, or didn't wipe thoroughly prior to flashing.

+1 - I have Zero issues with my email, calendar, etc as well. I would do a full wipe and reflash the rom.

Best roms for EVO 4G are GingerAleV4 & MikG-v2.00, 100% functionals, I recommend you to try them.
Is there any way to install the stock android calendar rather then the samsung calendar? The samsung calendar does not handle overnight events that span multiple days well, which I have many. Thanks for the help.

If it's anything like the vibrant, dropping the stock calendar might not work. The main framework caused glitches in the actual stock calendar app itself. There are many 3rd party apps that might work for you.
I have the same/similar issue. Overnight events (my gf's night shifts) show up as "all day" events and not as blocks like in the regular Google Calendar.
I've downloaded and tried Jorte, but it had the same problem (and no matter what setting I use, my eyes strain to read it).
I've done a few google searches, and on this thread, but couldn't find any resolution, besides rooting.
Any suggestions?
I was able to drop in the AOSP calendar from the CM7 repo into /system/app and remove TWCalendar.apk. There was a display glitch, a number 0 obscured the top left corner but it did not effect functionality.
FWIW, I was also using the AOSP email app.
Thanks for the response,
Maybe I'd be considered slow to most other people, but I'm only a month into my first smart phone and still not quite ready to play "Operation" with its innards...
I did, however, download the Business Calendar (Free), my third calendar app attempt, and whaddya know, it shows my calendar the way it should, including overnight activities(!).
I don't know what it does that the stock app can't, and I certainly don't like its look and that I can't change it (prefer the stock look, actually), but it works for now, until I figure something else out...
Hello everyone,
Just a few days ago I decided to start looking into rooting and flashing my Gio with a newer software. Only to discover that there's an amazing community out there, still putting in time into improving everyone's experience even with old-ish low-end phones that the manufacturers have already kicked to the curb. Really amazing stuff!
Anyway, I grabbed a recent Cyanogenmod 10.1 RC from Jenkins and flashed it to my phone. It runs incredibly smooth and I'm very happy with the result.
The only thing that irks me is the contact manager app included, I think it's called 'People'. It keeps on forcing me to sync everything with my Gmail account. Now I know this is just how Android was designed to work and that in the case of my Gio, Samsung created their own dialer and contacts. Is there maybe an App or a possible future Cyanogenmod update that will allow me to simply store the contacts on my phone without linking it to anything else, like in the old Samsung contacts list I had on my Gio when it was stock?
Cheers in advance!
I'd like to sync it to Google because I like to flash ROMs so if I wiped my data, just login back to GAccount and ur contact will back
But if u don't like it, just disable auto sync from settings

So i am installing custom Roms quite some time on my xperia, needed to switch from GB to ICS and installed HyperGamer 1.3, nice and smooth rom forme except one thing: i can't get the calendar app syncing with my gmail acc. seems like some sync-apk or something is missing, though the calendar app itself is working, but i can't add new entry etc.
does anybody have a solution? or should i just switch to another rom?

I removed the syncing apk for calendar and then I never made a sperate installer so people could install apps that they need... I will make it as soon as I can
That would be nice, thank you.
I'm using the calendar via Browser atm, but ... kind of uncomfortable
Syncing in Hyper-Gamer 1.4
hey, just an update
since i had still Problems with the new HyperGamer 1.4 and the CalenderSync with my google account, i dug into that..
Seems that the CalendarProvider.apk is missing or removed in the System Folder.. i installed it manually, then the Google Calendar apk. now its working for me.
If there possibly were any more glitches before that you may have fixed them as well with the new rom
thx again for the awesome rom!
