Hi all,
I can't find an answer to this anywhere.
Before I had a LG EVE with openetna rom and when I synced my contacts with gmail, it synced only the "My contacts" part.
Now with my i9000 it syncs "All contacts" which is "My contacts" + All the contacts I ever answered to, which polluates my phonebook ...
Any way to avoid that ??
Thanks a lot !

as far as i know, eclair (2.1) syncs everything from your account. but froyo (2.2) allows you to show/sync selective groups from your Gcontacts.
Great !
Thanks for your answer, I'll have to wait a little, or flash it with a JPK firmware to test..
But I'm quite sure that the openetna I had was based on 2.1
Is this specifically a Galaxy S issue? because I'm trying to do the same thing where I only want to sync contacts in my contact list, not everyone I've corresponded with in the past over gmail.
The reason I ask is because my buddy's got a HTC Desire and he says he doesn't have that problem and it syncs fine.

I have recently upgraded to the I897UCJI6-OCD-REV02-Low-designgears Froyo ROM on my AT&T Samsung Captivate and absolutely love it but...
I'm having an issue with the Corporate Calendar Events (i.e. Exchange) that did not occur on Eclair. Specifically, I cannot Edit events that I receive from others. I know that it is no longer possible to select Edit from the Event Details menu in Froyo but when I hold down on the Event in the Calendar View; it get the "Unable to Edit this Event" message.
The problem is that many of my Corporate Calendar Events don't have alarms set on them by default so my Captivate does not notify me when the Event is occurring so I end up being late or missing some of my appointments.
Can anyone help me determine how to add an alarm to a Corporate Calendar Event on the Samsung Captivate running the I897UCJI6-OCD-REV02-Low-designgears Froyo ROM.
Thanks in Advance!
Hi everyone,
I'm runnig xxjpy on my galaxy s. The trouble is I can't edit exchange event anymore if it has been created with outlook. If i create an event with the device, the option to edit the event is there but not if it's created from outlook. I think it was working in the previous firmwares. Anyone has a clue?
Thanks

My experience is that this feature has been lost coming from Eclair 2.1 to Froyo. The only workaround i have found is to use another calendar like Touchdown, loosing integration with the built-in calendar in the progress
Hi guys,
Moving from WM to android is creating me more problems than expected
Apologies if I make a few noob questions.
I got a Galaxy tab, and everything works fine expect the email apk which is not able to show the folders of my corporate email account. I've seen that this problem affect other people/devices, but couldn't find a working solution.
Funny enough, I got my old Blackstone running XDAndroid working fine with the same exchange account and showing all my email folders and sub folders.
I've seen the $20 touchdown, but I'd prefer a native solution, so my questions are:
- Understand that after rooting I'll be able to replace the Samsung mail apk. What would be the procedure?
- I would like try the email apk from the XDAndroid. do you see any limitation for this apk to work on the tab.
- is it possible to get the HTC mail apk (sense) working in the Tab? does someone have a working apk?
- Any other solution to show the exchange email folders into our Tab?
Thanks in advance
Funny, i had same idea with HTC Mail.apk but found nothing on web.
So anybody want to port HTC Mail to Galaxy Tab?
~ from Tab using XDA App. ~
HTC's email.apk needs sense, and would be nearly impossible to port it without using a sense rom as a base.
Exchange(2007 SP2) and subfolders works great though on my tab.
Also i've noticed that there are some differences between my stock rom and overcome, so you could try that.

hi YoMark,
Can you pls let me know which Email version are you running? (just go to aplication/manage applications/all/Email.
Mine is version 2.2 and it is not showing the exchange folders/subfolders (exchange 2007)
I also have the email 2.2 apk and while mails and folders load fine, it takes ages (1 min at least) on startup and any switch and email apk is prone to force close (especially when switching between mails or switching to another app)
I reported this months ago, but no solution has been found yet... Only thing I hate about the tab, as I have 0 productivity with Emails

I am in the same boat, it's not showing any folders (Exch 2003). Anyone found a fix for this?
Hi,
I came from HTC desire, previously when I used with my office exchange, it managed to sync emails, calendar and contacts perfectly. However, when I changed to SGN, the following situation happen.
- Modify or cancel event from Outlook, phone doesn't get sync (even I sync manually few times), it is still displaying old info.
- Modify contact in Outlook, for example mobile number or name. Phone doesn't get sync and still display the old info.
- Modify contact in phone, for example company, Outlook doesn't get the updated info.
All above are done with process where sync is "triggered" successfully.
Did any of you encounter this problem? Any resolution?
I can't help you, but I'm having problems with email in my exchange account. I have everything set up the same as my last several Android devices, but I can't reliably receive new emails. Sometimes they'll be delayed by a day or so. It's almost like the email client is not using cellular data to update and only using wifi when the device is on. Anyone else have this problem?

Sounds like account & frequency settings than an issue. Have you verified them? Are you on mobile data all the time?
I'm finding that on occasion it stops syncing mail.. the moment you reboot OR go in and manually ask it to refresh it starts doing it normally again no problems...
I am also having the same problem .. However manually refreshing - sometimes still does not work. It is indeed - very annoying .. I believe the problem is in the Email.apk ..
still no solution found, apart from using different E-mail clients off the market, which work with various success ..
I've been through the settings many times but still have the problem. It just decides to stop syncing sometimes.

Any alternate email client you suggest? I start to miss HTC mail client.
Although a bit weird, but after flashing this rom (Cassie's XtraLiteRom KKA ThunderBolted! V2.2) it seem to work fine so far. Still observing and hope it does really work.
I am also using the same ROM - there was no improvement for me. I believe the problem is in the E-mail client. The one we have is version 3.0.0.1. Before on another Android phone I used 2.3.5. I tried to replace the new one with the old one - and then it works. The problem is however that the old one is not scaling up to fit the large Gnote screen. It is a lower resolution.
I tried many other e-mail clients - K-9, Kaiten (both of them could not connect to my exchange server (2010)), Moxier - for some reason crashed my contacts and then I tried TouchDown - which is kind-a good and in terms of connectivity - all worked fine - but there were some integration points that were not fit for my taste.
What I ended up doing was a bit weird - but so far works nicely. I downloaded Google Calendar Sync - which takes your Outlook calendar and syncs it with your Google Calendar. Then I downloaded GO Contact Sync Mod - and that does the same for the Outlook and Gmail contacts. So I have both of them running on my PC and they automatically sync Calendar and Contacts. This way - my phone get them through the Google account and .. a bonus is that I have a backup
To check e-mails - I use the IMAP functionality of K-9 as my exchange server doubles up as IMAP too. For the time being - that's OK for me - and I will be hoping that Google will fix up this E-mail client in the Ice Cream Sandwich .. let's hope it is not I SCREAM sandwich
Alternatively - one can use the old E-mail client - 2.3.5 .. for Contacts and Calendar only and use K-9 for the mail .. It is really a matter of preference
I noticed that this may work. Instead of using push notification, use interval sync. This seems to solve it?
It's really weird and I still can't figure out the root cause.
That's a good clue - it appears to fix it!
Iam using SGN with 500+ emails everyday! absolutely no problem at all. I have been user of XE, XL, Sensation etc I personally think this issue arises when data connectivity of the concern operator is down (GPRS / EDGE) however, on WIFI no issues at all

Nope it's not the connectivity issue, it's the bug on push notification. Apparently this seems to be a bug in samsung, I didn't have issue in HTC previously.
After changing the push to interval pulling, it works perfectly fine now.
It might be related to 2.3.6 I recall having the issue on 2.3.5 and I'm pretty sure I saw it on my p1000 after I modded it.
My note is still stock.

I'm having problems with contact syncing between SGN and Exchange 2010. Create on phone or on Exchange - no way - no sync.
I'm on stock rom xxla6
Any ideas?
