Has anyone been able to get the samsung keyboard to sync with your Facebook data to improve predictions?
When I try it fails for some unknown reason.
I didn't give Gmail a go because I dont want my information compromised if/when someone hacks Samsungs keyboard database at samsung-keyboard.touchtype-fluency.com.

I need your help! Can someone please try to add a new appointment using s-voice.
My device is not allowing me to schedule new appointments using s-voice? I can edit or delete appointments, create tasks, set alarms, open applications, answer or decline incoming calls or even call & text contacts. I really like s-voice and use it regularly. However, the only command it won't perform is to add new appointments to the calendar. What I've done so far:
Changed and adjusted calendar settings and compared mine to other users/friends were the application does work.
Contacted Samsung who had me perform a soft reset by removing the battery and restarting the phone
Contacted Samsung who had me perform a hard reset and swipe the phone clean and start from scratch
Contacted Sprint who had me do another soft and hard reset.
Contacted Sprint who sent me a brand new replacement device
Contacted Sprint who had me again do a soft and hard reset.
Contacted Sprint who asked me to take the device into a corporate store tomorrow hoping someone there can diagnose the problem
None of these options have worked, and I still cannot add new appointments using s-voice.
Here is screen shot with the message I get when trying to add an appointment. Please help!

Thank you for responding. Do you use Google Now to add appointments? Can you screen shot this for me to see how you're doing so. I use Google Now for voice search of Internet information, but adding, editing, or deleting calendar items I was not aware Google Now had this capability?

Well, after spending up to 45 minutes at the Sprint store today I went away with a device that is still incapable of adding appointments to the calendar using s voice
However, once again Sprint didn't disappoint and agreed to send me now my third device. I should get it in two or three days and hopefully this one is the charm. Thank you to everyone who has responded, and done your best to assist me.
The issue has everyone at Sprint and Samsung puzzled, but other than the minor inconvenience of taking the old device to the post office to ship back, I'll keep pushing until I get a device that works.

With a special thanks to a new friend over at Android Central the problem has been found and corrected.
I had to create a new primary gmail account, and just like that I can now save appointments to the calendar. It appears the gmail account I always used as my primary account must have been corrupted in some way (I'm not sure how). Therefore, no matter how many phones Sprint sent me the result would be the same, because I always would use that Gmail address to set up the phone.
I am now using the new gmail account I created as my primary account, and the other one as the secondary.
Since all my applications, YouTube, and everything else is associated with the old account I now need to go through the really laborious task of redownloading my apps under the new account.
I feel bad about having Sprint send me another phone so I will contact them and cancel the replacement. Now I understand why the issue was unique to me, and followed me no matter which phone I used. Thank you all for your help! A special thanks to my new friend

What I've experienced and read is that S-Voice will save the appointment only to your local "my calendar." Google Now will save to your default Google calendar

Hey guys I've been following a few forums on this. It just doesnt make sense.
Anyways, I don't have a solution but I've discovered something that might help solve this from another angle.
S-planner seems to use the last calendar you created an event for. S-voice follows suit... so I'm able to get it to work with my primary personal gmail calendar and my primary google business apps calendar by temp creating an event in s-planner for one of them.
My problem is that I created an secondary calendar with my personal gmail account and share it with my wife as the family calendar. If I do the same in s-planner then try a new event with s-voice it fails.
I hope that gives you a new angle and maybe you can help me bc id really like the family calendar as the default..
Cheers!

Hi guys,
I'm facing to the problem to syn the contact from Outlook to Galaxy Note II via Kies (the software of Samsung), but it seems that it not workable. Since I'm very new to the Android OS, any of your inputs to fix the problem would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Kelvin
I gave up trying to do this in Kies some time ago. Researched and tried various alternatives and settled on the free app MyPhoneExplorer. One of the best apps I've used in Android, highly recommended. When syncing Outlook contacts it will list all the changes its about to make so you can check / edit them first. Works over USB, wifi or Bluetooth.
If you can use Microsoft exchange that syncs perfectly contacts calander and even sms. I suppose it depends who your email provider is

Thanks guys, since this is my first android os running device and i'm not familiar to. I have uninstalled the Kies on my laptop and then install it again, now it's working properly thought the transfer speedy not too fast like Itunes that I have used before. Finally, I got it done
Another issue occured right after, when I choosed tab "merge the contact with samsung account" or "merge contact with google account", all contacts in the Phone tab has goned. When I went to the Phone and pressed the menu button, then choose the contact to display, press the "Phone", not any contact appeal. But when choose "the samsung or google account" the contacts now there. Is there any way I could move all contacts back to the tab "phone" that it supposed to be the right place?
Thanks for any of your advices
Kelvin

Check out Go Contact Sync, it is on Sourceforge. http://sourceforge.net/projects/gocontactsync/ That lets you sync your contacts between Outlook and the GMail contacts, which sync with your phone.
Thanks mate, I followed your instruction but the contact could not sync into the "Phone" tab. All contacts now in google or samsung account tab. Sigh

You really want your contacts in the google or samsung account tabs. That way when you wipe the data on your phone, as soon as you add the accounts back, the contacts are resync'd back to your phone. Plus using GMail you have access to your contacts there if they are in the google account section when using webmail.
Is there any way to get the chat heads( of Facebook Home) integrated with the SMS app?
New ParanoidAndroid has that feature.

You can change your build.prop to a gs3 or something else supported. Or use the modded messenger apk.
So I send a lot of emails on Craig's List using my Gmail account. For some reason every email address I send an email to get captured by Gmail, and somehow ends up in my contacts list, and gets downloaded on my phone every time I sync after installing a new ROM.
Any Gmail experts know how to prevent this from happening?

I'm def no expert on that but seems like its more likely a setting in your gmail than your phone. Log in with your computer and look through the settings on there.

For some reason my xda forum app keeps getting uninstalled. I have it in a folder on my home screen, and it's still there but when I click it it opens the play store with the option to install.
Possibly related, my yahoo account keeps getting dropped. I don't get any email and when I open yahoo it makes me login again. And there's tons of email.
Another odd bug I've noticed is the first word swipe typing is usually way off and always a much smaller word the word I wad going for? God I hate not having root
Any info is appreciated
No one else has had any of these problems or knows how to fix them? Bump
Some how it got installed to sd instead of device. I moved it to the device. Hopefully that fixes it
