Ok so I was playing with some roms and after some time I saw that my calendar widget won't show Fb appointments.
I went to the fb in xperia an saw that there is no calendar sync or contact sync only album sync.
I tried everything. I even flashed to the stock ics and nothing. Now my calendar app is empty. Help please o wizards of XDA!!!
Thanks in advance!!!
The calendar sync used to eat data. Was a pain in all the wrong places. LOL!
Do what I did. Go to fb and export all your birthdays to Google calendar. (Do a quick Google search if you're not sure how to).
Else you can use something like HaxSync to sync fb related stuff (contacts, birthdays, events). I use it to sync my contacts.

Use jorte. Looks kinda like sense callendar.. then sync your Facebook callander with Google acct. Yes u must use computer. Then sync jorte with Google callendar.. that's what I did at least

There is a Facebook plug-in called fdCal. Install that to your profile. It will give you a url string that can be loaded into your Google calendar, and Google will pull your Facebookcalendar from this url. It also will stay updated. Since its in your Google calendar now all you have to do is sync your calendarto your Android phone. I apologize that my directions are a little vague but I did this quite some time ago. With the info gave you and some google searching you should be able to find a tutorial somewhere. Just remember fdCal is the key.
I used EboBirthday to sync my Facebook birthdays with my Google Calendar on my phone. It also syncs the birthdays with your contacts.
Hi, I have been trying to add facebook account through Settings> Accounts > Add Account. But I have not been able to do so. Kindly help me. Thanks.

You can't remove it as well.

Even i facing the same problem..
I was reading something about this.... Facebook will discontinue syncronizing capabilities...
i think you have to have blur and an active blur account to add facebook to your accounts. not sure though...

I found a small workaround to sync Facebook with contacts.
Maybe not enough but works for me, Google Contact Sync. Synchronizes Facebook with Gmail adress-book.
You can find PC-App by search Facebook for "Google Contact Sync"
Hi Folks,
Coming frmo a HTC desire - all contacts were stored in Google.. they used to show facebook pictures in contacts list on the desire - and birthdays etc were synched to the phones calendar - is this possible with the Arc?
Cheers,
Mick
Yes, the 2.3.3 update from SE brought facebook integration to the 2011 Xperia line-up. Contact pictures are available and fb birthdays show up in the calendar. Cheers!
how do i get them to work though?
opps never mind.. its working now.. maybe i hadnt sync'd properly or something..
Hello,
I havent found a way to do that...
I have facebook app installed, abut it only syncs contacts.
I cannot find a way to sync my facebook calendar with S Planner.
Can someone help?
Try Haxsync, should work for calendar. Dont know if facebook syncs hi-res pictures nowadays, if not, use haxsync for that too!

Thanks, but i am trying to intergrade s planner with facebook not contacts, as advertized on several Samsung Note 2 videos.
Go to settings--->under accounts, click Facebook. It will then show the Facebook account that ur phone is synced to. Click on the username and u should see 3 options with boxes next to it. Ensure that the box sync calendar is checked.
Then click sync now. It should work...
Loving the note 2!
Yea, it worked like a charm

i would like to know how to use the "s planner widget" on note 2 , basically i want to add a ' to do ' event and strike it off once completed , but im not able to find the 'to do' option all i can do is create an event ,but cannot create to-do/task or check/uncheck
Which rom are you using ?

Facebook events sync with Google calendar
what you can also do is sync Facebook calendar with Google calendar. Then it'll be easy to choose which calendar to show/hide from S-Planner settings
Just search for "add facebook calendar to google calendar"
SOLVED
I don't know if this has been solved yet but it might be the same as with Galaxy S4. Go to add accounts and there should be another Facebook "account" you should add. It's called something like "Sync apps with Facebook". After you login you will find the two missing options: Sync Calendar and Sync Gallery.

Mine seems to sync ok, but I have the Google account at as default for calendar. Might be that entries for Samsung account do not get synced with Google(?).
Edit: New Answer
Maybe I didn't have Google Calender installed. I don't remember it syncing both ways on my Note and remember a message stating so when first launching it.
Thanks for bringing this up.
Good concise explanation. It's confusing and is one reason I don't use the s-planner app at all. What I need is to add an event on one device and have it appear on all of them, and they're not all Note devices.
kable said:
Yep, It says that when you first open it.
It imports from Google calender but does not export any information which sucks because otherwise it is such a nice program.

Just checked on mine to be 100% sure, and it is working.
On my Note 8 i entered an appointment using Google account, even added picture snote, and it synced momentarily (except for the note).
Maybe try installing native Google calendar from the Market, and check if your sync works?

It is working fine for me too. I also have an exchange account from work and sync all the calendars fine and I can create appointments from the Note 8 and see it 1 minute after on my GNexus calendar.

Mine works. Under settings in the S Planner make sure you have the calendar for your gmail account checked, not your samsung. What does not sync are tasks.

Mine still doesn't work. Initial calendar got populated but any new updates don't work either from s Planner to Google calendar or visaversa

This would mean that sync had access to network and partly works.
Really strange. Maybe try deleting the Google account and clearing Google Calendar Sync data (settings/apps/all) + restart and then set it again?

Go to settings -> accounts and click Google. See if sync is disabled.
Have an update:
Initially I did not have Google calendar installed on Note; only S Planner. In Google sync calendar was checked. In S Planner mycalendar was the @gmail.com calendar. But this was rsulting in updates not flowing between teh S Planner and calendar on Google
Then I wrote this post..
Yesterday night I also installed Google calendar app on Note, and voilla... S Planner and Google Calendar (both app and actual web Google calendar) are now in sync.
So, my conclusion is that for S Planner and Google Calendar you need; last 2 sound obvious....
1. Both S Planner and Google Calendar apps installed on Note;
2. Google calendar sync turned on
3. Google calendar chosen as the calendar on S Planner
Can you check Google calender from the web and see if Google has your appointments saved there as well?
I always seemed to loose my appointments if I wiped my phone.
Thanks.

Yes, they are in Google Web calendar.
I've been using Googel calendar app (on android, iOS and Windows) for a long time an that was not an issue.
issue was adding things from S Planner were not saving to Google, and now they do

Hi,
I had same problem with my Galaxy SIII. When I installed the Calendar app from google, S Planner started to sync via it.
I also saw that under options->accounts->Google: Calendar did not want to sync without the google app installed.
Good luck! :good:

Had the same problem on my Galaxy Note 10.1, and nothing worked including installing the Google Callendar.
At some point I've noticed that the first field on the event creation page on the S-Planner is the callendar (In other words: you choose which callendar to create the event on).
For obvious reasons, the default one is device callendar which doesn't sync to anything. But once you change it once, it stays that way .
Hope it helps .
Calendar
I live and die by my Google Calendar.
Here's your problem (I think):
You have to go through the SPlanner, Google Calendar or the app of your choice and 1st enable and disable under each account which calendars you want to keep synced. I disable everything except my Google Calendar. 2nd In the configuration somewhere you should find an option for setting the default calendar.
Only the Google calendars will sync to Google Calendars - I know it seems obvious, but this is why I disable all the others.

the solution to this is whats stated above.
Tested everything with my s3 and the only thing worked is installing (or in my case re-installing the google calendar app on my s3)
thank you for this fix. I installed google calendar app on all my devices and no more sync problems between s-planner and Digical Calendar app. I just hide the google calendar icon
Just so you know... I have more than one Google account. One is dedicated to google play store only. I noticed that in Splanner the default may point to the first account. Which may be setup with everything disabled. Since I have both Samsung and Google accounts for calenders, I set all calenders as my option. Now all accounts sync. So be careful about which calender you set your Splanner to, as it may give you problems as well.

Problem is that in S-Planner you can dismiss and it remains on the calendar.
In G Calendar you need to delete.
Also with G Calendar enabled you need to do this twice.
I don't understant on my Note 8 I don't need G Calendar it just syncs.
In Note 3 it doesn't work without G calendar a real PITA.
