Exchange contact sync by contact group or category - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi there,
I have an exchange account which I am synching to my Nexus, including calendar, tasks, emails and contacts. For calendar, tasks and email I am using touchdown which works just perfect. My problem is the contacts sync.
I am still using the stock exchange client to sync my contacts, however I would love to sync only a specific group of contacts. Of course I can just sync all and the not display the groups I don't want, but they are still there and are annoying in som cases. I am not using touchdown for this, because touchdown doesn't sync birthdays to the contacts app.
I tried moxier and roadsync. Both don't seem to solve my problem. I would be greatful if anyone had a suggestion for another app, a setting or whatever to solve my problem.
Thanks

hmm... almost a hundread views, but no reply. So I guess I am asking for something that doesn't exist.

Can I synch Desire with Hotmail?

Helle guys!
I'm most likely going to buy Desire tomorrow. My HD2 changed the Lockcode automaticly today. And I'm so tired of the SMS bug and all that other things so I'm going to trash it.
My question is, can I synch Desire with my hotmail? I have everything over there, Calendar, Contacts, Mails, etc.
I love the way this function is intregrated in Leo.
Thanks for reading guys...
Yes, you can sync the desire with hotmail. I think server is pop3.live.com and smtp is smtp.live.com. I have set it up and works fine. I don't know if this is an EU only thing or USA as well..
Not too sure about anything more than the email. I have google calendar and contacts, which works best for obvious reasons..
Good luck

Hey!
Thank you dude!
I'm going to buy it then.
You can't really sync with Hotmail. The only thing you can do is receiving your emails trough pop3. You cannot sync your calendar or your contacts as there is no native hotmail or windows live app/integration for android.
What you could do is import your hotmail account into gmail and then sync your desire with gmail and you'll get your contacts and calendars and of course your e-mails. You can even send your e-mails from you gmail account with a different e-mail adress. After the import you can set your gmail account to query the pop3 hotmail server every 15 minutes to get your mails.
Did this for my girlfriend, so she can get all her mails from hotmail including contacts and calendar.

[Q] calendar sync'ing

I have a problem where the exchange based calendars on my DHD aren't reflecting any of the changes I make to existing meetings such as a date or time.
What am I missing?
Thanks!
Let me elaborate. Create a meeting in Outlook or on the DHD, fine it appears in both environments. But make any changes in outlook and they're not reflected on the DHD...
If you create an appointment in Outlook, it appears in the DHD.
But not a modification.
I'm afraid it's on the server side you have to investigate.
The modif are "pushed" with Exchange. So no problem on your DHD.
Ask server admin.
Im not seeing the same problem on the Galaxy S ii i received today...
what kinda exchange server is it? are you using gmail. Maybe try switching to google calender. Google uses imap, what works like a charm on android. Just log in with your google account and mail contacts and calender is synced without any hussle

[Q] Cyanogenmod not showing/syncing exchange calendar

I'm using CyanogenMod 7.1.0-RC1-buzz. i use an Exchange email/account for my work and gmail for personal. I can see fine the Gmail side of things but the Exchange calendar doesn't show up in the settings so I can't see any events from that account. Also in the Account & sync settings it does not display my exchange account under Manage accounts.

Maybe I can help.
From your PC or normal internet you need to log into your Google account and link your exchange Calender etc etc to your Google account and then from your phone you will be able to choose which accounts to sync/show. I can't give great detail as it was a long time ago I had to do this but for Facebook Calender sync so can't recall exactly what the process is. Hope it helps though? Regards Slymobi.
"sent from me2u"
Thanks for the tip, but that method I'll have to export my Exchange cal and then import it into Gmail - that way I won't be able to edit my events with have to redo the export from exchange etc etc.
Cheers anyway

Google Now and calendar sync

Hi,
My stock email/calendar client wasnt syncing with my Exchange email after upgrading to JB. So, I have switched to Touchdown email client, where my emails and calendar are synced properly.
Now, how to get Google Now use this synced calendar for the appointment notification cards?
Right now, I don't get any appointment alerts from Google Now.
Is there any way to sync the Touchdown calendar into the Stock calendar?
Really appreciate any help here.
Thanks

NitroDesk has been fairly adamant about NOT providing access to the calendar database, and making it separate and proprietary.
I use tasker and the developer said the NitroDesk's NDA was so overreaching that he couldn't legally do anything to access the calendar.
Maybe Nitrodesk will change, but I doubt it. The requests to get access to Touchdown's Calendar database have fallen on deaf ears for
several years now.

Gmail Exchange / Microsoft Exchange Activesync

What a great device, but I really miss the Microsoft Exchange Activesync account type.
I tried to setup via the new Google Exchance account type, and I can see my exchange mail just fine i Gmail. But I dont care for reading my professional life emails in gmail, so it would have been great if OnePlus had included an email app.
Anyway, I can see my calendar items in Google Calender just fine, both my gmail and exchange calendar item. So far so good.
Contacts however is a different matter. Gmail and Exhance contacts are cluttered all together in the dial (contracts), is there a way to exclude my gmail contacts so I only see Exchange contacts?. I can't seem to find any way to do that on the oneplus 3.
Also, not all my exchange contacts are there, so although sync is greenlighted the sync is not complete. Anybody else experience and fix that?
You could use this for exchange sync. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.office.outlook
Sendt fra min OnePlus 3
Try the app "Mail Wise" or "Nine"...my favorite is Nine!

Will try both..probably end up with Nine also since it has be best rep.
Well, 3rd time I set up exchange it looks like I now have working email, calendar and all my contacts.
Now I just need to find a good stand alone email app for my exchange email and then disable notifications of such emails from the gmail app.
Hmm, .they sure didn't make it easy.
I started usibg to one plus 3 recently. Phone is very good but badly miss the smoofh integration of microsoft exchange and contacts in my old Samsung phone in active syn mode. . Wish one plus 3 brings its own email app like what we see in i phone or samsung.
I personally use an outlook and Gmail address. I use Nine for my email app and just forward my Gmail to my outlook address. Could always create a secondary outlook adress as well just to handle the Gmail address.
