Hi,
does anyone receive birthday reminders via smart notice? I've got birthdays in my google calendar but there are no reminders. "Birthdays" is ticked in smart notice settings.
What do I have to do to get notified?
Regards,
Rudi

I think birthday's have to be set in your contacts.
Ok, I should have mentioned it, that birthdays are in my calendar AND in my contacts...
After the latest LG update (10h-EUR) I receive birthday reminders.
I use Facebook Calendar Sync and every night at 12 it lists upcoming birthdays and I think rknuette it's right, they need to be in the calendar.

Hi, I cant see my contacts' birthdays in HTC calendar, although I have it ticked in calendars to display... anyone has a clue why?
I noticed that too and here is my workaround. The nice thing is that you now also have the birthdays on your Google Calendar on your PC.
For your Google contacts you can add a seperate calender from Google Calendar:
1. Go to https://www.google.com/calendar/renderOnline?tab=mc
2. -> Settings -> Calendars -> Browse interesting calendars -> More
3. Activate "Contacts birthdays"
For your Facebook friends, you can:
1. Use the Facebook iCal service from fbCal and add the calender to your Google calendar.
Link: www.fbcal.com (I had to use the alternative URL to make it work : www.menuo.ch)
OK, I already figured out the Facebook birthdays through FBcal. But I still have a problem with the birthdays I entered into my contacts in the phone, those I cant sync with either Google or the calendar in the phone.
I've had the Desire for 3 days and spent a lot of this time managing contacts. But it was all fun
Is this phone amazing or what? I just cant put it down...

Just Sync your phone with outlook. Outlook will create reminders for every birthday of your contacts. Then outlook callendar will sync with your phone! Voila!
Damn, I dont use Outlook I hate it. But if it's the only way so be it.
Shouldn't the phone do it automatically? I hope future updates will fix this.

Go to google calendar on your pc,
Choose to view other peoples calenders (like Chinese holidays etc)
Within the option is a add on calender that will sinc your contacts birthdays into the calender.

I'm having a problem with syncing birthdays from my Google Calendar.
The first time I did it I did it exactly the way you said. I synchronized my contacts with Google Contacts including birthdays using EboBirthday Contact Sync and it worked perfectly. I ticked Contacts' birthdays and there they were all in my Google Calendar and in my phone calendar.
The problem now is I've added some more birthdays, I can actually see them in both my Google Contacts and my Google Calendar but they don't sync with my phone calendar. Is there any workaround for that?
WP7 Calendar v Birthdays and Holidays
I’ve noticed that (unlike WM6.5) anniversaries and birthdays from “People” do not populate to the calendar in WP7 (Samsung Focus). This seems to somewhat defeat the purpose of entering said events in the people profile. Is this normal?
Also, these events, as well as Holidays, do appear on my Hotmail calendar, but unlike appointments which I enter manually, do not sync to the calendar on my device.
When I view the monthly calendar on my device, days on which I have appointments appear as a small line, so tiny I can barely see it. This is in contrast to the nice triangle in the corner on previous models. Is this normal?
Thanks in advance.
I hope i can help you. I have a google account with all my contacts and calender entries. I added my google account to my mozart, activate contacts, calender and e-mail under settings.
After syncing i have all my contacts, calender entries and my mails on my mozart.
Sorry for my english.
I hope this is usefull for you.
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.
Does anyone know how to enable the option to see birthdays in the calendar? It worked when i first got the phone, but not sure what i did since to make them disaper.
Edit, went into Google calendar settings and enabled birthday calendar. Done deal.
G'day Team,
Has anyone found a way to get the Always on Display to show the next event from your Outlook Calendar?
I understand it will show the next event from the Google Calendar in Android 9 and have this working correctly however I want to display my Outlook calendar.
I've tried adding my outlook calendar to the Google calendar from within the app (which works in terms of showing the appointments within the app) but the Always on Display will only display events created within the Google Calendar directly.
I love this feature (as an ex-Windows Phone user) but use Office 365\Outlook not Google Calendar.
Any suggestions on how to get around this??
Many Thanks!
I am looking for the same, but I guess AOD is designed to show only Google Calendar events. On a side note, how did you manage to add outlook calendar within Google Calendar app?

you need to share your outlook calendar with either the google calendar or samsung calendar, you can go in google calendar, settings, manage calendar, add ouutlook calenar (put in your username/passoword) if its your personal email calendar, it will show up, if its your corporate calendar, your company would have disabled sharing of calendar for security reasons, and it will give error. check if you can share your corporate calendar to your gmail id. usually its blocked.
was able to successfully show the corporate calendar on AOD, go to the outlook app on your android, and select sync calendars, enable the toggle. it will sync the outlook calendar with the samsung calendar and it will show up on your AOD, just tried it on my s22 plus it works. after hrs of tinkering around.

Considering the Pixel 2XL isn't a Samsung device and doesn't have Samsung apps on board, he'd have to share the calendar with Google Calendar.
Not to mention that we both replied to a post that was dead and buried four years ago.
