Contacts and calendar sync

Hi guys,
need some help.
i'm on Enomther Rogers ROM v1.8.2 and i'm syncing all my contacts and calendar with my exchange account from work. enomther didn't remove HTC Sync from his ROM and i'm trying to use it to sync my contacts with my laptop @home. The phone is connected, syncing is starting but everything ends quickly with 0 contacts and 0 calendar entries synced.
How can i do this without syncing my contacts to gmail and then back in the computer? don't wanna use gmail for contacts and calendar.
thanks

bump.
anyone?

[Q] Exchange calendar sync

Hi,
I'm using modaco FR15 default rom
I can add a exchange account, In my calendar I have my gmail account events, but not my exchange account events.
When I go to sync menu, I click on sync calendar, seems to work but no events show up on phone.
Which app should I replace for have it to work?
Thanks

no1 using exchange calendar ?

My exchange syncing works perfectly (apart from phone turning itself off! ). Sorry - were you sure to tick them, in the Exchange Account Sync settings (go into LG Email, into settings, choose the account, and then in "Sync item" make sure calendar is checked.
Edit: Sorry, I read too quickly that you're on FR15 - so you may not have LG Email app.

I have the same problems. I´ve decided to use TouchDown Exchange app. And it works fine. But one problem, it is not free :-(
But you can download trial version for 30 days.

One dummy question: where can i find type of my ROM?

Found the solution :
If you disabled the automatic synchronization (and then you want to synchronize only when you click on it (= doing it manually)) it won't work.
You have to let automatic synchronization and it works. I got my exchange + gmail calendars in the same time.

Good to know - thanks for letting us know. I guess you can always set the automatic sync period to 12 hours, if you want to protect your battery.

Well if I want to sync my Exchange Calender (Exchange Server 2003 Ent.) then the LG Mail Client (which syncs the Exchange mail) crashes on opening a mail).. Calender items do not get synchronized too. The little round sync arrows turn round but stop and then no sync??
Someone got a solution for that (except for buying an app??).

Hi guys
I‘m new here. I just want to ask how to exchange facebook. I mean to have all birthdays from my facebook contacts in my phone calender.
I know that is possible. But how.
Facebook is sinchronized.

[Q] exchange sync only contacts & calendar?

Hi All,
I am trying to set up the Exchange sync but I only want to sync contacts and calendar without email.
Is this possible?
Thanks for sharing your wisdom!

Kinda. Only solution i believe is to set ur sync to never push emails jsut always manually pull. Only suggestion i can think of.

SYNCING APPLICATIONS- what's the purpose???

Hey
I know it may be dumb to ask but is their a need to sync Facebook or social media apps with your phone? I'm Abit confused of the benefits? I have Google contacts synced to phone which i think will sync my new contacts so I'm fine with that but everything else is it really useful or is it better to have them auto sync turned off for battery life...
Cheers

I dont turn on my sync still i get the update in facebook, google mail, apps, and yahoo mail. I dont know what is the purpose of sync?
Its better to turn it off for added battery life.

That's what I'm thinking but I'm scarred to turn off Google as I want my phone contacts always backed up. That's the only one I have synced at the moment.

yep when checking settings in email and accounts I think there are options there. At least for Exchange mail. Gmail its already push, dont think you can change it.
Always just check every setting within app as wel, Facebook has push for direct messages I think.
synch is old school, poll server, updates found download, repeat proces every few minutes
push, not entirely like blackberry but close, servers sees email and sends it to phone to download. Hence push.

Basically I sync all my contacts and photos with my google account so it will never be deleted unless I do
Syncing is to exchange the things between two accounts EG. Contacts & Google and if you lose the things on one account you can recover from the other account you synced by enabling the sync option again or you can delete on other also by syncing again
Its up to you

Hey
Thanx everyone for the advice. I think having Google contacts is a must just incase I add new contacts etc and I've synced my dropbox But apps like Facebook and whatsapp and twitter are so not needed so I've taken them all off. I can't understand why anyone would want to sync twitter or whatsapp lol just ludacris.

how many times?
Havent tried myself but something is here
iCal can sync with Google Calendar, and Outlook 2011 can sync with iCal.
So: Google Calendar --> iCal --> Outlook 2011 for Mac
1) Set up you Google Calendar in iCal.
To do this, open iCal, go to Preferences, select the Accounts tab, click the '+' (plus) sign to add an account. In the Add account dialogue, select Gmail from the drop down menu. Enter your Gmail (or Google apps) email address and password and click Create. Proceed to Outlook 2011.
2) Configure iCal sync in Outlook 2011.
Go to Outlook Preferences and choose Sync Services in the bottom of the window. Tick the Calendar check box. In the accounts window it will say 'On my computer'. This is correct, as iCal does the sync'ing to your computer.
Wait a few minutes (or perhaps close/open Outlook) to see your calendar entries appear. You can always double check that they appear in iCal first

I use MyPhoneExplorer for that purpose - a very reliable way to sync with Outlook (and create backups for contacts, sms, etc).

Installed Kies Air on my Mac. Can't find any option to sync with Outlook. Could you please let me know the procedure?
I don't remember the password to my google account. Can't try MyPhoneExplorer.

I bet you haven't tried Google.

I wonder why the search function in PlayStore does not find this app. Using google, I found it under Google Play. However, it states that it is not compatible with my Galaxy Note! Anybody knows what is going on?

play store on the phone will not show u apps that are not compatible with the phone u using it on

assuming you have PC at work: google calendar sync, beware - you need admin rights to install it, then it sits quietly in system tray and sync at given intervals
