[Q] 4.0.3 Exchange calendar display/sync? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Guys, are your Exchange calendars displayed and synced OK in 4.0.3?
Coming from HTC forums where we are having issues with the latest 4.0.3 mail/calendar/provider APKs....seems Samsung devs are also hitting this...
Using the latest HTC's own ICS 4.0.3 email APK it works OK...but all "AOSP-ized" Sense-less ROMs that use AOSP 4.0.3 mail APK are having the issue. When creating an exchange email account, choose to sync also calendar...when opening calendar app (AOSP), there is no Exchange calendar to choose to display or sync.
thx in advance!

Mine works perfectly, running Exchange 2007 (on SBS 2008), and Gummy Nex GSM ROM.

hmm, thanks.
seems to be HTC base related then....

Various versions of gapps ( I presume that is also where you Google Apps come from on your rooted phone ) are having some problems with Calendar Sync, on Samsung devices aswell.
There are various workarounds, extracting the calendarapps (googlecalendar.apk? and calendarprovider.apk) from a different ICS 4.0 gapps package works.
Set right permissions and reboot (works for me on SGSI).
Or try flashing the gapps again or look for a fixer.

I've been on 2 ROMS since my purchase (AOKP/Rootzboat) and neither had issues with Exchange calendar syncs.

I've only had my Galaxy Nexus, replacing an Infuse, for a week now. the phone is rooted and has CWM recovery; otherwise is Verizon stock 4.03 (for now).
I can't get Exchange to sync to the calendar consistently. The gmail calendar works fine, but the exchange works for a day or so, then stops processing any changes (both ways). If I delete it and recreate the account, it works for a day or so, then same thing.
Any ideas? Specific gapps packages from other ICS builds to try?
Thanks.

Mail app

So I like using the stock mail app but it seems that after a day it DELETES any email. Is there a easy way to fix this? Or do I need to switch to another mail app? If so could I please get a few suggestions? Also I'm currently not rooted.
Thanks

Mail -> menu -> more ->settings -> Send & Receive -> download options
Pick # of days or # of emails.
I had an issue with the Mail app where it would constantly get stuck syncing my Exchange email, when nothing changed. It would kill the battery when it got stuck doing that. I would try killing the sync, and it would just start again and again... So I paid $3.99 for Enhanced EMail from the Market. Works great!
Sense Email for Exchange works perfectly
I have also purchased the Enhanced Email for my DINC, but the only time I have to use it is when I'm using a GB rom. It works pretty well, but there are no scrolling widgets available for it. The stock GB email client is missing the 'search' function (I'm not sure how the Google folks neglected this key piece of business-class functionality in the GingerBread Release).
When I am using a FROYO rom on the DINC (Sky Raider 4.0 is the very best in my opinion), the Sense Exchange Mail client should be rock solid and has one of the very best widgets available on the market. The problems you are experiencing might be the rom you are using, because it works flawlessly on the SkyRaider 4.0 Rom with Sense 2.0.

[Q] email.apk from ICS ROM into GB ROM

Hi
Does anyone know if it's possible to insert the ICS email.apk into a Gingerbread ROM like CM7.1?
My findings are that in ICS it's possible to native sync you emails and calendar from an Exchange server with you phone.
In Gingerbread this is only possible with external apps (Touchdown, Moxier, Enhance Email,...)
Would syncing work if you inserted the ICS apk into the GB ROM?
Thanks for you response.
regards
Mr H
Exchange sync
Not sure if i am missing something here but i have been syncing to exchange without issue since Eclair.
All you need to know are the server settings and away you go
Depends on the security settings of your exchange i believe.
Ah i remember, it has to do with certificates and stuff (security eej )
I guess this is not possible, because it's a system app.
Syncing with Exchange on Gingerbread, too. Stock mail app is working fine. But i'm not using CM7.1, maybe their mail app doesn't supprt exchange sync?!

[Q] AOKP no Picasa Sync

I recently installed AOKP JB Build 3 ROM on my GNex and noticed that Play Music and Gallery apps weren't the standard ones, in fact Play Music isn't there at all.
The Gallery app has no option to sync my Picasa pics. Before this AOKP ROM I was on Stock JB and loved this feature. Can someone please tell me how to get the Picasa Sync back to Gallery app?
Thanks in advance.
What gapps did you flash?
I'm using the one mentioned at the bottom of this page- http://aokp.co/index.php/releases/_/jb-build-3-r30
gapps | 20120726
I could be wrong but I don't think the standard gapps going around supports that sync. There is a thread over at Rootz by Formula84 that has a more up-to-date version of gapps that includes what I believe you're looking for.

He has an 8/31 and a 9/28 and there are 2 versions of each. One has picasa sync but overrides the ROM's extra camera features (burst, etc) and the other version has the camera features but no sync. I think so far picsync and cam features are mutually exclusive

There's been a problem with gallery sync, so there are 2 gapps versions around. One has gallery sync, one does not. You have to flash the other one.
We're not sure when this will be worked out but its annoying.

[Q] Question on ROM BeanStalk 4.3.1001 & Facebook

I just installed this on a Galaxy S3 SGH-i747 and it works great! smooth install and all... My questions is about Facebook, my calendar wont sync. As I look in my stock S4, there is a facebook account OTHER than the regular facebook account that says "sync apps with facebook" that the S3 doesn't have under accounts. The regular Facebook account just lets you sync contacts but not calendar or events. Somewhere I read that im missing S Planner from Samsung... Can someone please shed some light on Facebook Calendar sync with this ROM JellyBean 4.3 BeanStalk Build 4.3.1001 - 02 OCT ?
Thanks!
I'm not entirely familiar with the structure Google is using right now but Google doesn't all calendars and syncing contact photos, events or birthdays in from the stock app in Android. Some manufacturer or carrier branded roms have alternatives that let you do all of this.. Since Beanstalk is built from AOSP libraries and not the manufacturer, we know that we're going to have to find a third party app to handle these events from now on.
HTC had libraries built into Sense 5, and even more so in the previous versions that had Friendstream, Samsung does it I'm sure, but I dont use any of their stock bloatware.
Its got to do with app policies and your contacts list though, the Facebook app used to do it all but Google made changes, I can't remember if they introduced them in Ice Cream Sandwich or Jelly Bean. I use a wonderful little app to take care of all of that and keep my pictures synced. HaxSync

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!
