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.

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!

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.
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!

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.
Hi All,
Currently, I'm using MIUI as my ROM, but seriously miss some of the great features of HTC sense.
Below is the list of features that i think should be included in MIUI ROM's.
1) Sense Contacts app and Dial-er -- I think that is the best dial-er till date as you can link all the contacts and the best part is Facebook sync.
2) Beats/SRS/Dolby Audio
3) Pre Installed Google apps like, Gmail, Maps, Search and busybox.
Which feature would be YOUR favorite to see recreated to the MIUI ROM?

Samsung Messaging has a crappy theme but it's superior to the stock Messaging app.

Superior in what way?
Thanks a lot!
The standard samsung app is better than stock but graphically deviates too much from holo.
I immediately downloaded the application that you have shown me, but unfortunately doesn't work ... After having opened app it crashes.
In particular, he shows me the list of all messages (distinguishing read from unread) but when I try to go into a conversation stops everything.
I use GoLauncherEx on Samsung official 4.0.3 rom. When the application crashes, even golauncher crashes! For a few seconds the screen is all black (it show me only tray bar)!
I know that GoLauncherEx isn't optimized for ics but is the only launcher that lets me create folders in the program list (I have much application and I need it!).
Actually ICS isn't very stable on my device and I'm almost regretting gingerbread!
I can do anything about it?
Thanks again for your support,
I hope one day I'd help forum people.

That is very strange. Which firmware did you install? I installed XEO (polish version) and didn't get a single crash or problem what so ever. I had a few problems in rooting it, though (needed to wipe it first and re-flash the orginial ICS firmware before rooting to get the root rights recognized). But once that got fixed, everything was and still is perfect.
Or maybe it is because of the go launcher ex? I was using TW the entire afternoon (13.03) without crashes. At night I installed Apex launcher as system launcher and no crashes either (one day running), very low battery consumption and awesome looks. You can add the ICS Theme Pack from kovdev to get the ICS icons.
Hello element!
I've installed the XEO firmware, then polish, just like you.
I have not done the wipe but updated via OTA.
I had already installed GoLauncher. When I've upgraded I've selected Golauncher instead of Tw.
Currently I have encountered frequent application crashes and one total block of the system. The battery, to be honest, I can not tell if it lasts more than gingerbread why I used the phone a lot for various customizations.
I do not know if the problem is that I did not do a wipe.
If he continues to give me problems I do a backup. After I install the rom again.
Tonight I remove the battery and after power on. Tomorrow, we'll update on my test.
PS The biggest problem is GoSmsPro. it sends multiple messages at one time. If I send you a message, you will receive two. I do not know how to solve.
PS2 The root I did with Odin and had no problems ...
Thanks for the help,
Hello!
As I promised you I a write updates.
I solved the problem of low stability: I made a deepclean and then installed applications without syncing (I installed all the applications manually).
Now I have one problem, the phone crashes when I try to change the background. If you have any idea: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23727272#post23727272
For the rest new rom does not seem bad ...
Thanks for your help,

Hey, check it out: One so called Tim Hutt put the stock calendar, messaging, and launcher app in the market and they all work just fine for me. The apps are called "Android 4 ICS Messaging SMS", "Android 4 ICS Calendar", and "Android 4 ICS Launcher".
The only bug I have (and it's not a big one) is that the screen doesn't light up when you receive a text message... Perhaps this is because I disabled/removed the official Samsung messaging services though... If you leave the default services enabled, then the screen lights up like normal but you have to select a setting in the ICS messaging app to disable the message receiver because then both the Samsung app and the ICS app will both write the text message to the database and you'll have duplicate incoming messages. Just go to settings and scroll to the very bottom to see what I mean... Enable that option if you don't remove the Samsung services/apps.

Hello,
I flashed the rom last night. It is amazing! But there is some problems for me...
1. Problem:
I am now trying to sync my facebook contacts with my google contacts... But there is no facebook contacts syncing... No facebook id in the people's contact menus...
I used htc sense roms before and i could've sync the facebook contacts.
And there is no contact sync menu in facebook App's submenus?
So do you know what the problem that i have?
2. Problem:
I can easily use the "phone pad keyboard types with t9" but i can't find a second keyboard type other than the miui keyboard in the miui's settings menu...?
Is there a way to change the miui's orijinal keyboard type to phone pad type ?

For facebook you will need to download the facebook app or any other app that syncs your contacts. A reboot may be needed. If you want to sync your facebook contacts with whatsapp along with your phone contacts, let me know I'll upload an app for that.
Or you could manually input your facebook contacts
I didn't understand your second question/problem.
Edit: heck, the app I mentioned.... you can find it if you scroll down a bit.

First of all,
Thank-you for your fast response...
1. & 2. Photos,
As you can see from the screen shots,
I have all ready install Facebook App. And it's showned at Acounts menu. But in the contacts menu, there is only Google and Exchange Acount showing..
So, the people in my contact list have not sync with my Facebook or Twitter Acount.

I installed an. Htc keyboard App. From the forum as you can see, i have just wanted to change orginal miui keyboard to phone pad type..
I think miui must have 2. Optional keyboard as standard..

That looks like miui ics. I haven't flashed that in a while. If I remember correctly there might have been problems with the contacts. Read the thread, yes, the 100+ pages or you can use the search function.
Before doing that you can try clicking on the sync off and then on to see if it resyncs and reboot if it doesn't show. If you already tried this then you can skip it.
With the keyboard, sorry I still don't know what you want to do. Coffee still hasn't kicked in.
Click on qwerty keyboard to see if that is what you want. But then again that should have been the default so you ahould have seen it.
If it is that you only want a dial pad, only numbers to show, that will show up in a few places, how to select that only, no idea.
Sorry if this is confusing, I just got up and coffee hasn't done its magic yet.
Edit: I think I see what you mean.
You want to use two different keyboards at the same time?
Or is it that you want to use only the t9/dial pad all the time?
The most I know is that you can change the theme for the keyboard, however, Im not sure if that is working in ics yet.

i just want to use the dial pad keyboard style for all time... and i have used it with my old htc sense rom for along time...i installed an htc keyboard .apk from the forum as you see.. but miui doesnot have the dial pad keyboard style, it has only qwerty keyboard... am i correct?
i really liked miui, but the keyboard and the contacts sync issue is really important for me...
For facebook problem use (facebook sync application) is the best for now
and for the keyboard i don't get your problem but you maybe would to try perfect keyboard application

Try HaxSync it works a lot better than the facebook app with syncing facebook contacts to your phone plus it also downloads a better photo from facebook than the fb app does.
