[Q][FIXED] Problem syncing all calendars to agenda

Hello everyone,
I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing these problems:
I have my google agenda synced on the SGS, and am using an app called Log2Calendar to dump all calls and textmessages to a dedicaded calendar. This works fine and I can select the calendar in this app. Shows up fine from my desktop.
However, it does not show in my agenda on android. Reason being is that i cannot select it from the different calendars it syncs. There is another one I do not see, got 6 in total, 4 show up.
Been googling, but they are all talking about sportscalendars not being able to sync.
Any ideas? Tried deleting agenda + agenda storage, and a resync. But this did not help.

Pfff, been looking into this for weeks now, hence my thread. But now it works.
Delete agenda storage via settings -> applications -> agenda storage. Quick reboot before it can sync. And it should be fine after a resync. Strange bug though.

Have the sam Problem (with JPC Firmware).
Have tried this way but no success.
Still no tasks that ar created through third party apps ar synced.
This is VERY bad!!!!
Any further Ideas?

Hey there.
Yeah, in my search for an answer to my problem i did find an issue that stated this problem.
In all of android, the calendar "Tasks" is simply not synced. Find the issue in google bugsystem, star it so it'll get a higher priority.
Meanwhile: create a new calendar in gmail (from PC), and use that one with your third party apps. This should sync just fine.

This is, what i have done a few days ago.
I have created an new calender and set Log2calender (i use it to. It is a great App ) to sync with it.
Still the same prob.
All Tasks (Calls, Messages) appear in Device (Jorte, Touchcal; Stock Calendar) but ar not synced with Google
In the Froyo Dev Thread i have read, that Cal Sync with third Party Apps is still Buggy in the current Froyo (JPC) Beta.
Hope Samsung will fix this soon, because i really appreciate Froyo.
Meantime i have flashed JM8 and use this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=723103
Superslim ROM Version.
It is amazing fast (Quadrant 2320) and everything works like a Charm.
Also the Sync with all Third Party Apps.

[Q] contacts glitch

okay so I was posting the other day asking about uninstalling system apps and unrooting, thanks guys I was able to unroot my phone and return it back to verizon and get a new one.
The reason I had to return it was I was having a contacts glitch. I could dial out just fine, but if I went to my contacts and clicked a name, my phone would force close.
so I get my new phone, sync my account, root it, and check the contact list, it works ! sweet so now its time to get to work. under your advice instead of un-installing like I did the last time I went to titanium backup to FREEZE all the bloatware. Im pretty sure I tried my contacts again and it works fine. then I spend the rest of last night installing my launchers, games, tools, got rom toolbox changed my lcd density to 280, change my boot animation, and disable some apps from starting on boot,then went to the applications tab and disabled further autostart functions. I didn't try using my contacts because this was around 2am . but I woke up today and I now have the same problem. I can dial out fine, but if I open the contacts and try to choose one, or if I type in a number and even try to add to contacts , contacts FC's. Oh I should add, when I want to send a text message it is no problem I open the text message home, click the + icon and type a contacts name and I can stat a conversation no problem. anyone have any ideas what could be causing this?
here's the list of apps I froze

I am absolutely perplexed! anyone think they know what could be causing it?
EDIT: Okay so I did some researching and this appears to be a fairly prominent problem with moto Blur going back to the droid X etc...the fix was to go into /system/app and rename BlurContactSync.apk to BlurContactSync.bak ...now everything works perfect. credit goes to
droidforums.net/forum/tech-issues-bug-reports-suggestions/153062-contacts-wont-display-droid-x-w-gingerbread.html

The app that was most likely causing the crashing was the Yahoo Mail Authenticator. Droidforums had a few posts about it. Renaming the sync probably bypasses the authenticator.

Freeze
Are you experiencing the contact force close only when all apps are frozen? I had issues with the Verizon Backup Assistant goofing with my contact list.

I had the same issue until I unfroze Yahoo Mail Authenticator.
I am not sure I want to go renaming files yet until a recovery is available so I will just leave that one item unfroze.

well the good thing about renaming the file is I am able to rename it back just as easy as un freezing . so I actually just renamed my blurcontactssync back to apk from .bak and unfroze yahoo mail authenticator and it is working great thanks for the tip!

In my opinion, stay away from Backup-Assistant. I've had nothing but trouble with it, everything from not backing up correctly, to poor restores that rendered my data useless. There is another program out there I use for this. Super Manager. It works for my application, and I would recommend it if you are still having trouble.

Google Contacts Import / Sync

Hi All
i'm on ZUI 2.1.140
Google Play works normal
i wonder how to import / sync google contact since on account & sync there is no Google Contacts options
Thanks

You just have to install this 3 apks in this order, Google Contacts Sync, Google Contacts and Google Play Store. Don't forget to install Google Play Services if you need it.
Here's what you need. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=93727

Calendar also does not work on my ZUI 2.5, how to fix it?

Looks like the sync adapter does take care of the syncing for the calendar, works for me after the sync status has completed. But you could always choose to install Google calendar from the playstore. Then open Zui calendar > settings > then change the default calendar to Google calendar.

I managed to sync the contacts, my only problem is, profile pics are not synced. I had one Rom installed from Franco, the Sync Adapter was preinstalled in this rom, sync was with Pics.
Now on zui 2.5, no chance to get the pics.

hello,
my problem is, since i´ve installed nougat on my z2 pro, my google contacts doesnt sync anymore. with marshmallow was it ok.
i have already install google contacts apk and googel contacts sync apk again and again, clear the contacts apk cache, clear dalvik cache, nothing works for me
has anyone the same problem on android nougat?

Mine stopped working after a couple weeks but I got it going again. Definitely a hassle, though.
A little background: After a lot of playing with Mokee 7.1.2 (CONSTANT hard freezes with blue LED making me miss my alarm the next morning), RR, AICP, etc. I decided to just try and make ZUI work for me between Magisk for root and Nova Launcher. I had brought up a clean install from QFIL flash of ZUI 2.5.335, flashed TWRP 3.1.0 (LR.Team version) to recovery, flashed 2.5.415 update zip, installed Google Play Store, Play Services, Contacts, and Contacts Storage from apkmirror.com and set about making it mine and disabling Chinese system apps and so on. Spent some time screwing with Safe Center (which thinks AdAway is a virus, but oh well), it was pretty livable. Only hard freezes if I use bluetooth with my car too long, which IS pretty annoying. But I've never had it freeze overnight and make me late for work, and hey, the camera Just Works, and U-Health is pretty cool.
Anyway, after about 3 weeks it was working pretty well for me, I miss some of the CAF/AOSP kind of things, but at least they're deploying security updates even if it's still Nougat 7.0 based. But then I noticed a week ago contacts stopped syncing. I could switch sync off & back on for Contacts but it wouldn't update. I tried wiping data for all the Google things and even deleting and re-adding Google accounts, but that just resulted in no more switch to tell it to sync Contacts. Dammit.
I DID get it working again today: I removed all the Google accounts from Settings, then uninstalled Google Play Store (com.android.vending), Google Contacts (com.google.android.contacts), and Google Contact Storage (com.google.android.syncadapters.contacts - I used Titanium Backup to uninstall the package since I bought that long ago), and deleted the updated Google Play Services apk from /data/apps (com.google.android.gms - use whatever file explorer with root access you like, I'm a fan of Mixplorer from XDA Labs but I'm sure ES File Explorer will work great). Rebooted. Gmail app doesn't know what to do with itself now.
I then reinstalled with Contacts 2.0.8, Contacts Storage 7.0 (API 24 target, woo; maybe this will work better than the newer 7.1+/API 25 target one that I tried before), Play Store 7.9.30, and Play Services 11.0.55 (240 version - Android 5.0+, ARM/ARM64 v8 abi, nodpi) from apkmirror.com and specifically made sure to give them all full permissions access instead of leaving it at the more paranoid "prompt" settings. I then was able to re-add my Google accounts and get Play store and Gmail and all the other Google apps to see them again with a little effort (basically had to re-do all the Google apps; Play Books, Play Music, Drive, Gmail, Calendar, etc.).
But contact sync seems to be working again, both for new contacts created through a computer web browser and created on the phone. I'm a little worried it's only temporary, I guess we'll see. But deleting Google accounts, full deleting 4 packages, and reinstalling with full permission access seemed to work.

How did you manage to sync contacts? And does anyone else have "ok google" greyed out?

I am on zui 2.5.435 st installed via QFIL, BL unocked, rooted Super SU. The sync initially worked but after a few days stopped working as well.
New setup works again. But if I click on "Refresh" in google calendar the Syncing does not stop. Do you have the same issue? There is something broken.
Why can't we just use openGAPPS?

What ever I try. The Sync will not work. I reinstalled the google accound many times. Deleted all google apps. Started with Contact app but whatever i try. It always says: This account already exists on your device. Somehow after installing Google Contacts Sync it downloaded 47 of the 1250 contacts to the phone. Its not visible in Google contacts. those contacts are the contacts I recently added in the last year. Online I see all my contacts. Why cant I find all other contacts on my phone? I even changed data restrictions. Set it on "no restriction" and cleared cash and all after deleting google account end tried all possible varieties of this.. Still no success in the Contact app.. Weird thing is that when I ask Google app verbally to call some of my contactst it works. So all the contacts are clearly still in my google acount and even linked to my voice command for dialing. Only the contact apps dont show them.. What is wrong here? Spend all night trying everythng. Nothing seems to work..

GMail notifications - there aren't any!

I think I've tried everything on YouTube or via Google search.
Can anybody give me any tips to get Gmail notifications on my P40 Pro+ please?
Has anybody got it to work?
(As an aside, Messenger, WhatApp and text all work just fine.)

Hey there!
Install BlueMail client works great with Gmail and other email accounts.

Or outlook

Tried BlueMail & Outlook but no notifications on my Pro+
Any special settings or just normal install?

A million thanks to all who replied or tried to help!
It worked, I have GMail, I have notifications, my P40Pro+ is complete with GMS, all the Google Apps I need, and everything is working!
I can't believe after all I've tried and the Huwaei Email App was all I needed
I hope it solves the notifications issue for everyone else too.

Mind sharing how you got everything to work?

No problem, it's nice to be able to help somebody else for a change!
First up, I tried to use the phone as intended, but Outlook was useless for GMail & Google Calendar, plus there was a banking APP I needed for work that didn't play nice.
So I started with a couple of different YouTube videos, but the one that worked best was by RedSkull - https://youtu.be/uOjfSWPTWsI
I'm not super technical, and it took me three goes but I got there and everything worked, except GMail with no notifications and no incoming mail unless I opened the APP.
After that, it was lots of different attempts based on comments from other people (like use BlueMail App - but it didn't work for me) and then somebody said the Huawei App was great and worked for them - hey presto - all good to go.
I have to say it's an amazing phone and well worth the work to get it to this stage.

Thx for the info worked on 1st try. Now i'm gonna test the email stuff.

1st time = you know what you're doing and more techie than me :fingers-crossed:

Hi, just don´t know if I understand it well, but I´m using the Huawei mail native app, with my gmail account, and everithing works fine, even notifications. I still don´t felt the need to install google services.

Yes the Huawei Mail App works fine with GMail - it just took me a while to find that out!
If you can work without Google Services then brilliant - I couldn't, I had a couple of work issues and ended up needing it, but either way it's an amazing phone. I love it, and the camera.... untouchable

Question CN version in US: minor problems

Google Play was installed out of the box. i downloaded all apps through there.
-google contacts not syncing.
-i get no push notifications like from the Ring app, youtube or ESPN. i did tap on allow when i first opened the apps.
-is there any way to get google news to appear when i swipe left on home screen?
google photos, maps, play store, stadia all seem right.
maybe there’s a solution. i read through older threads and didn’t find one.
any help appreciated.

I noticed that the preinstalled play store sometimes does not work properly. I had to reset device completely. Play services are part of the rom and available right after reset, I just had to download and install the play store itself.
Google Play Store 25.5.27-21 [0] [PR] 375135971 (nodpi)
43.43 MB (45,537,921 bytes)
As for notifications, you might wanna disable or delete the power save app from vivo and enable staying connected all time.

If you factory reset your phone, the first app to download from the vivo appstore is Gboard, which will prompt you to download Google play. I logged in to my google account afterwards and have no issues syncing to all my contacts, calendars etc
For notifications not appearing, a lot of users experience problems with the vivo provided power management app (com.vivo.pem) cause it interferes with how your apps sends notifications or frequency of push notifications to save power. You may use adb to disable it or uninstall. Hope this workaround addresses your push notification issue

i fixed the contacts and calendar (also had no calendar entries) sync issues. i went to APKMirror.com through chrome and downloaded the latest Google Play Store. I had version 24... on my phone and the latest was 26... I installed it through chrome and it installed over the existing app. I uninstalled calendar and contacts and re-installed them. calendar worked immediately on opening. but contacts didn’t. i went back to APKMirror.com and downloaded and installed Google Contacts Sync. I now have my contacts.
to get the push notifications working I went to Settings -> Applications and Permissions -> Permission management -> Permission - Background pop-ups and none of my installed apps were toggled on. since enabling them, I have received a couple of notifications with the phone in my pocket. maybe the vivo power management app is still causing problems because im not getting most notifications.
can someone point me to learn about "adb". I've seen that in a few places here and i don’t know what it is. im a long long time android user since google's first t-mobile phone but ive never had a need to tweak.
thanks for the help so far. just need to get my notifications and im pretty much all set.

so my only goal today was to install adb on my mac and "learn" how to use it and hopefully disable com.vivo.pem
installed on mac, enabled developer mode on x60, have access to device...
using: adb shell pm disable com.vivo.pem I got an error message
using: adb shell pm disable-user com.vivo.pem i got a successful prompt
when charging my phone and having the apps opened in the background (ESPN, Ring, Fast Mail) I do get push notifications. also get them while using the phone with the apps open in background. but with phone sleeping and in my pocket i get nothing. any ideas?

my issues are basically resolved. hopefully this will help others. I read in another thread to enable "mobile data always on" in the developer settings. as long as i have the apps open in the background, i now get push notifications when the phone is sleeping and in my pocket.

Which carrier are you using in the states? And do you have volte or vowifi?

im using it with tmobile. i don’t know how to check for volte or vowifi. i don’t actually use for phone calls. maybe make 1 or 2 calls a year. lol
