Hi folks
Might want to sticky this one... many rely on the Google Calendar for business like myself and this Google Calender issue has been well documented all over the internet with no apparent fix, so it might be worth making this visible for people to see. There is a bug with Google Calendar that some of you may already know about. I have tested this fix noted below and it works flawlessly on two different HTC devices.
Issue:
When you sync Google Calendar via any android phone, it will only pull entries within a 30 day date range, anything older than 30 days will NOT be displayed.. The data in your Google web calendar will display calendar dates older than 30 days (mine goes back to 2003). This issue was raised with Google in 2009 and nothing has been done about, there is a fix though!!
Fix:
From home screen hit menu and go to settings
In settings go to Accounts and Sync
Turn off the background update and autosync.
Go back to main settings menu and go to Applications
Go into manage applications
Press menu button again and select Filter and then All.
Find Calendar and select it and delete all data (it will warn you about losing all files just hit OK).
Do the same for Calendar Storage.
Go back to main Settings menu and scroll down to Date and time.
Turn off Automatic and then set date to January 1st 2009 and hit set. (I tried to go all the way back to 2006 on my first try and it just kept rolling the date back to the current one)
Wait a second and make sure date remains set to the date you selected. Then select Date again and select your desired date (should be before first entry on calendar.)
Go back into Settings menu and select Accounts and sync.
Select the Calendar to sync and then go into calendar to ensure its all there.
Once it is you can then safely turn on auto time and date again and let all apps auto update in background.
Thanks to Wade for his help.

thanks, will give it a try. I must admit I never had any problem syncing my calendar since 2001 while using HTC roms. The problem only occurs using non-sense roms for which it would only sync the past 30 days.
Why does it affect non-sense roms only?

Android Calendar bug with Calendar Sync and end-of-month events
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=3672

Thanks - that's odd cause I did not experience the problem on my hero and desire until I started using a non-Sense ROM a few weeks ago - i've had my full calendar since 2001 on both devices until a few weeks ago!
By the way the trick did not work - my exchange server refused to synchronise my calendar when i set a date that did not match the date on the server...

given the lack of interest of others for this thread it sounds like only a minority of users are experiencing the problem - as i wrote earlier, i did not experience it in 3 years of running Android on various devices until I rooted my desire and installed a non-sense froyo rom. My calendar went back to 2001, and I could sync them all with my android devices until recently.
btw I have not seen many threads about the problem on xda either....

Interesting... point.
I only noticed this after I rooted as well. I guess the people that experienced this in the links I provided above must have rooted their phones too. Anyway, this thread is here for those that need to reflect back on previous appointments that aren't visible.

Doesn't work on my I9000
Sync sign appear just for a few sec and then disappears. On Calendar Storage just 40K of data seems to be downloaded instead of several MB (full of events from 2004)...

i tried it but it won't work for me
any other solution?
i really need more than 30 days

The only fix is to install a HTC rom and you'll get all your appointments back... sorry for not being any more helpful. I must admit this is an issue I have experienced with all non-htc roms on all my devices, from the hero to the desire and my Asus eeepad transformer

did not work
Hi,
I have an HTC Sensation XE, but this trick did not work... any other idea?
Where the limitation is coming from ?
- the server side or device side.. if it is device side it could be that somebody would be able to implement something where we could chose the timeframe for sync (like the gSyncIt tool for outlook)
Thanks

Does also happen at devices which are not rooted
I'm tired of posts blaming rooting of devices for every bug in Android. My brand new (December) Galxay Note is not rooted (yet) and it does not sync events from November. However, many missing basic features (e.g. a bitwise backup of the internal flash, like nandroid) in Android make living without rooting very dangerous: On my old, rooted Milestone 1, the system corrupted itself several times, and I could restore with Nandroid. Many (payed) apps after some time destroyed themselves with "updates", and I could roll back with Titanium.

CalenGoo to the rescue
While I love a technological fight as much as the next guy, this syncing issue with Google Calendar and Android phones is a waste of flipping time.
Yes I know that Google's calendar sync works for some people, some of the time.
Yes, I know theirs is built in... and used to work... and should work... and Google is being a butt for not getting it resolved.
But sorry -- it's time to get back to work.
Following the suggestion of a post earlier in this thread, I installed CalenGoo and all this [email protected] is far, far behind me.
Installed, configured and synced perfectly in about 5 minutes.
I don't work for CalenGoo, don't know anyone who does -- don't get nuthin' for mentioning it. But give it a whirl -- and when you see how quickly it works, you'll be triply pi$$ed at Google.
(f-it -- I'm to new to post URLs, so just search Calengoo in the store)

Thank you so much man, this is even happening in top recent roms like [AllianceROM][6.0][26.01]LS8

Worked on my rooted Note 3
Thanks!!! This worked on my rooted Note 3 but can not get it to work on my Note Edge. When syncing NE it gives the red indicator failed to sync.

It worked, PARTLY. All my Google calendar entries from the beginning (2009) are now synced with my phones. However, when I do a search for particular entries it cannot only find entries beginning November, 2017 not anything earlier.

Rooted and debloated but cannot add new contacts

Hey guys. As the title says I cannot add new contacts from texts I've received since debloating. Not sure which process is causing this issue. I'm wondering if anyone else has this issue.
Will see about posting the frozen processes later.
*edit* I can't add contacts period. When I select new contact the page is blank..

What programs did you uninstall/freeze? AT&T Contact manager by any chance?

I can't post links yet so this will have to wait until I get to a PC. I haven't touched any contact app or process.

U said in the title that you have debloated, and we're assume by debloat you mean you either froze or uninstall something using TiBu. Now the question is, did you freeze/uninstall AT&T Contact Manager?

Quick n simple

I didn't realize until after I read this thread that I also disabled that function. Good advice Namuna. I think I may have it fixed. Hope OP gets it solved.
edit: Since we're on the topic of contacts and such... What exactly is the "AT&T address book"? Why can't I import my contacts from my SIM card without choosing AT&T address book or google services? Does this mean AT&T would then have all of my contacts?

I'm thinking this is their new service to keep your contacts for u in the case of emergency, just like wat sprint n verizon r doing since they do not have a sim card to save contacts to. Instead of having to save your contacts to a gmail account, which many "common" users might not have any idea dat it syncs with the phone, at&t provides the service of migrating the contacts to a new phone just by placing the sim in a new phone n activating it. This is what I assume though, might be totally incorrect. lol.
edit: Btw, I think if you freeze/delete AT&T address book, u also will not be able to add new contacts to the phone.

Yeah I followed some guy's list of things he froze/disabled and one of them was the WMsync... something rather. That is the AT&T Address Book and it didn't show up in the options to import from SIM. I've since enabled it and it's there again and I'm also able to add contacts.
I just thought it was weird that I can't save the contacts directly to the phone. Is the AT&T Address Book just like a cloud sync?

I guess you can say so about AT&T address book.
What do you mean save directly to the phone though? Won't you want it to sync to your Gmail acc directly so in case anything ever happens to the phone, you won't lose your contacts?
Here are the options available on where to save your contacts:

Just click on the Down arrow next to Contact type and choose where you want it to go to.

Well I don't know how I feel about my contacts information being on a cloud server. What I've done for awhile is use Windows Contacts on my computer. It's pretty nifty and works great with an Android device since you can drag and drop.

Problem solved. ATT Address Book was frozen. Catch is I went through and defrosted each app individually but didn't restart the phone. Defrosted ATT Address Book and restarted and good to go. Thanks aquariuz23!

I understand how u feel about cloud servers at one point, I felt very insecure about having my information somewhere where other people with power can easily access them on a whim. But then I thought to myself, if someone really wants the info, with enough power they can get it as long as we are connected to the "network" aka the internet. We have to be totally void of connectivity to the internet to avoid having our info in other people's hands.
Reminds me of something I saw when I watched Battlestar Galactica; how Galactica had to be completely and utterly network-less in order to avoid any possibility of being hacked and accessed by the Cylons (Cybernatic Lifeform Node). The moment they networked their infrastructures, they immediately got hacked, and had to rely on firewalls to defend themselves lol. Just a side story it was a great series too

I get the error Application not Installed when I try to install the apk?
Any Idea?

You need copy these files in /system/apps

Another question about the cloud servers. Would you guys recommend the AT&T Address Book or the Google account thing? And why did you choose it?
I'm trying to download my contacts into the car Bluetooth, but it wont recognize any contacts. I'm guessing that's due to them not being saved to the phone.
I'm wondering if its something to do with rooting and debloating. I could swear it was working before that, but I can't figure out what I would have disabled to cause the problem.

[Signatures] ☎ Create your own mobile devices timeline (phones history) - super easy

[Signatures] ☎ Create your own mobile devices timeline (phones history) - super easy
Hi,
A new free web service has been just released - Mowned.com.
You can create your own mobile devices showcase (timeline).
As users creates timelines (eg: add phones and year when they got them), some interesting data will appear (such as: appreciations, devices owned by years, etc - for example check this page).
.. but let's go back to the forum signature. You can create easily signature image that can be used in forums, etc. For an example of a generated signature check mine.
Steps:
Login with Facebook - just click that button, confirm the dialog from Facebook then your account is automatically created
Add your phones - the process is intuitive, you will see once you finish step 1
After you added all your phones click "Activate image signature" from bottom of your dashboard
Copy desired BBcode code generated with the signature image
That's all. You can have your signature in minutes.. in the case you remember all the data .
You may observe that some years in the signature are in gray color instead black. Black means that device is still owned, gray = device gone.
PS: phone years is not mandatory but nice to have (for statistics, as written above)
The service can be acccesed via:
mowned.com - users mobile devices timelines
Available signature formats

Re
thanks i will try it out

Would be great if you didn't need to use Facebook for it to work.

XperienceD, "Login with Twitter" may be implemented soon. It's that ok for you, since Twitter share less information than Facebook?
Thanks

Not really, no. I don't use anything that requires a login from either, especially when it's something I'm only ever going to use the once. Good luck with it though.

^^^ Exactly what he said ^^^ I have no FaceBook account. I have no twitter account. I only have a G+ account because I need a Google account for my Android phone to function fully.
I look forward to the day when FB suddenly goes out of business and all these other companies are screwed - why they can't simply create their own log-in - or even better not require one - I don't understand.

Love the idea but why do you need a login in the first place?
I would remove the need (maybe give the option to) to get more people using it.. what's to stop someone else making a site that does the same but with no login?

Yeap, but in future you get new devices so you need to update current phones list (timeline). If the phone's aren't linked to an user account you cannot edit..

I guess sites uses Login/Connect via Twitter, Google, Yahoo, Facebook because:
1) users that are using those platforms don't have to complete registrations forms.. just a few clicks and voila, you have access to the site. I personally prefer to login with Twitter and if I like a site and have this option I would sign in using this alternative
2) sites programmers don't have to stress with users creating process, eg: captcha, e-mail validation,etc.. Plus they got extra information, especially from Facebook, such as interests, etc (mowned.com doesn't store such information)

Login it's needed because:
- phones are linked to an account
- edit phones list in future (eg: add new device, correct device year from - to, etc)
- user-based phone list helps improve the statistics per phone, for example see this link: http://mowned.com/devices/samsung-galaxy-nexus-i9250
- rate phones (for the sake of statistics again)
So.. what's the purpose you may ask? Well, this way we may see most appreciated phones by owners, phones owned by years, most owned phones.. It's true that you need some amount of data to a have a proper view..
I will implement in the next days a solution for login with e-mail and password (so an valid e-mail and password is needed for registration).
Edit:
Has anyone tried this?

Hello,
Now there's the option to sign up with an e-mail.

Seems to work, but I didn't get the timeline signature picture at the end.
Maybe it's because of my username with the underscore => "IT_ler" ?!
Or do I have to wait after creating my timeline before the jpg will be made and provided?
This should be the link for my timeline signature picture:
[url=http://mowned.com/it_ler][img]http://mowned.com/sig/it_ler.jpg[/img][/url]
EDIT:
Now it's fixed and working fine !

It_ler, yeap it was the underscore, the route didn't know about it (only about "-") so an 404 error was triggered. Now it's fixed.
Thank you for the report!

Cool! just don't like the red ad
Thanks a lot anyway!

XxStatiX thanks, now the logo part is tweaked a bit. Indeed it was too bulky and took too much space. + now it can show up to 11 phones instead 10. Do you think it's ok now?
(if you see no changes you have to refresh the page to force a new fresh request - instead it will show from your browser cache)

nitubhaskar thank you!
Now the image stretches horizontally (its width) automatically. Eg: if you owned only 3 phones no need to make it 500px long..
Thanks for giving me this idea. So your signature image is 324 x 80 instead 500 x 80.
That's what I could do at the moment. The signatures aren't customizable per user (at least ATM).

Yay its Fixed! Exactly what i wanted,Adding phones now! Wait

Hi,
Now minimal information about most popular mobile phones (from mowned users input) is shown in main page of the site.
I'm thinking to add in near future an option for those who want only to generate signature images without creating an account. This data will not be merged with user phones database, so it will not help/affect the main statistics.

[Q] I don't want to update my phone!

My unrooted HTC Desire 816 has just received a rather prominent message sayind "System Update Available. Tap to download the system update." I would like to know what sort of system update it is--is it Lollipop (I read somewhere that this phone wouldn't get Lollipop, and to be honest I was relieved)? Is it an HTC update? How do I know whether I want it? I've heard so many unsatisfactory reports about Lollipop that I have no wish to have it. I've also read some complaints on Play Store about some kind of HTC update. Is there a way to find out what the update is, and, more important, is there a way to refuse it? I just wish I knew more about it and whether I wanted it or not. Right now, there's a big banner across my phone's home screen that gets in the way of my accessing some things not just on the home screen but in play store and other places as well. I've included a link to a screenshot of the top part of my phone's home screen, showing the update announcement that I can't get rid of:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I'm pretty much a newbie with this phone, and I don't want to root it, nor do I want some possibly problematic update to screw it up. It's currently on KitKat 4.4.2, and I'm quite content with that for now. Does anyone know more about what this update is and how I can get rid of the announcement? Thanks in advance for your help.

Um, if you tap the notification it tells you exactly what the update includes.

Thanks very much, FoxyDrew, for your quick response. The problem is that the banner says tap to download, so if I tap it, chances are that it will download, or perhaps even download and install. Then I'll be stuck with it.
I'm wondering whether I can deal with this the same way I did months ago on my Nexus 7 tablet. I knew from all the complaints on the Nexus 7 forum that I did NOT want to install Lollipop. Someone else suggested that if I long press the notification and then select app info, I'd be taken to the play services app info screen, where I could uncheck the enable notifications box. That worked fine on the tablet, but I have no idea whether the same thing would happen if I tried that on the phone (the guy who gave the instructions was talking about his Nexus 7 tablet). Obviously, I could try, but I'm really afraid of prompting the update to download.
So, is it possible to tap on the notification to find out what it is without the tap also triggering the download? And if I find it's Lollipop, can I prevent it from downloading? I know lots of people are eager to get it, but I also know that lots of people who were eager are now wishing they'd stayed with KitKat.

No, a Nexus has stock Lollipop, which is drastically different from it on your phone, which HTC has heavily modded to give the experience that it believes its users want.
And taping the notification won't download it, or install it, it will just tell you what the update is.

Thanks, FoxyDrew, for your follow-up response. I think for now I'll just try to ignore the notification, especially now that the ugly black banner has disappeared and is no longer blocking my access to parts of the screen. I really don't think there's anything in the update that I need or want, at least nothing right now. If I begin to find that lots of people with unrooted HTC Desire 816s have upgraded with no problems, I might give it a try. But I'm really quite content staying with KitKat 4.4.2.

Don't worry htc won't bring any problems to it's devices. If there is any problems in Android Lollipop I'm sure htc team has already taken care of it ! And you better always keep your phone updated. It might include some important updates such as performance improvements, bug fixes and security updates. It's ok if you tap the banner it only shows the updates, after that you give it the permission to download and install or not...

Thanks, Arash94, for responding and for seconding FoxyDrew's statement about tapping on the notification to find out what it is. I'll probably now do so. However, I'm afraid I don't share your confidence in HTC's ability to correct the huge raft of problems people have been reporting about Lollipop. Heck, when 5.0 was such a disaster, I felt confident that Google would quickly come out with a fix that took care of the problems. But the problems persisted through 5.01 and 5.02, and apparently even 5.1 still causes some problems. I doubt that HTC has more technical expertise than Google.

Hi everyone.
All of you know the Facebook Instagram official application is not good at all for windows 10 especially on mobile phones. Now I'm working on a new project named as Winsta. An open source software that you can find it's source code here on GitHub
At current branch we were able to make this features for app :
Login (Two Factor login supported | Challenge require supported)
Login with Facebook
Logout
Like / Dislike

and more...
for making our progress faster we need some help from other developers to make this application ready for release faster. If you can help us to make development faster please join us on GitHub and In our Telegram Insider Group.
What you have to know and tools you need before joining us in development:
Good knowledge of MVVM and UWP C#
Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 and Universal Windows Platform SDK build 16299 (1709) and 17134 (1803)
Some screenshots of the current app attached below

Well done! Looking forward to this!
So far I like it! Will it also have functional notifications?

It has notifications right now but only for activities (not for directs, lives and etc.)

Great idea looking forward to this. Do you guys plan on making other apps like facebook, twitter or are you gonna stick with this one and see how it goes?

We will not stick to one thing.
We have a roadmap and our next step is working on our new version of DENNA (our old to-do app) but we will keep developing WinstaApp and our GMaps Client app "WinGo Maps".
About Facebook and Twitter, I think no. We are mostly working on projects that didn't come to W10M or Doesn't have an updated client. But maybe later we work on them too

This is great work!

will there be a alpha appx release??

Camera Error
I installed this app today in my Lumia 1020. Than I started camera through it, the camera started to show green image after a while, I was not able to see with the camera. Its the same thing, Even with the default camera app. Than I restarted my phone, And everything was fine, than after about 5 hours my main camera stoped to display anything. The screen turns black when I open the main camera through any app, though the front camera is working fine. I gave many restart and soft reset to phone but still my problem is not solved, do anyone have a solution for my problem..

that's hardware issue. maybe camera connector is disconnected from the board or maybe your camera lens having issue.
you should go to some care center.

When
When app will be available for download in Microsoft store ?

Now, after re-installing this app, I realized that there's something wrong with this app.
As soon as I opened the camera section in this app, the screen turned out green as it happened previously, effects were same in the default camera as well, until I restarted the device.
Are you trying an uncommon approach to display camera outputs in this app? which could possibly forcing the hardware to do lot of work.

I don't have a Telegram app. Where can I download this app?

Winsta application now available from the link below

Please made free client, because instagram is free app on android and I'OS

@hubert123454
If you want free app, use official instagram.
