[solved] Google alternative - Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Since a can't sync my Google calendar data more than one month ago (and I NEED to have access to all my appointments) I ask you:
Is there a free alternative to Google calendar? Something with cloud address and calendar syncing? And easy to set up in android?
Have a nice day

Anyone know of a good Notes app?

I really like keeping notes on my phone but there's no Notes app in the AT&T ROM. I tried pulling the one from RumRaider but it FC's on opening so I'm guessing it's missing dependencies/framework or something. Is there a notes app that will work with Sense 3?
Thanks!
I too have been searching for a good notes app, but haven't found one yet.
I use aknotepad from the market. Unless you're talking about something different.
Evernote is really good, free, and syncs to their server (a must if you flash a lot).

"Only" 5 million + downloads from the Android Market. I use it to sync between my work and home PCs and my Vivid. I figure it's as easy to enter a text note in Evernote as it is in any other stand-alone text editor or notes app.
AK Notepad was a great suggestion. Pretty much exactly what I was looking for. Although I might have to check out Evernote.
I tried several, and Evernote beats em all hands down, IMO.
I'm surprised nobody mentioned Gtasks.
I use Gtasks for the convenience and simplicity of use. You simply download it and it syncs immediately to your google account. You can enter notes from your phone or pc (from your gmail calendar) and even while reading articles or websites on your phone, you can share the webpage or article directly to gtasks, so it sends a link to the app. You can further use it as a task management tool by setting reminders and alarms for each note item.

evernote has similar functions. Plus there is a really good chrome extension so you can clip text or send a page directly to your evernote account.. I use this all the time for recipes and stuff. Also it looks like HTC built a native note app that will sync with evernote now and it works great!
I use gtasks for a long time, I might give evernote a try

I use one called ColorNote. Its a good basic note program. I havent really tried any others.
If your an MS Office user, OneNote is now available for Android. Cloud syncing via LiveDrive works well.

I am running stock AT&T .56 ROM & I have the built-in HTC notes app that syncs with Evernote.
I use colornote. its quite convenient to me.
U can find it on Google Play!
As an MS Outlook user, I like MyPhoneExplorer for syncing contacts, notes, calendars and tasks. The developer is actively engaged, and responds quite quickly to support issues.

[Q] Email setup in CM7.2 SIII V3

I just installed the CM7.2 SIII MOD V3 ROM from Faceliler and found it very light and useful, but the icon for setting up email accounts is not there. Gmail is in there, but I use the mail setup to get my hotmail and yahoo accounts in my phone. This is the first time I face a ROM that is lacking of the mail setup. May it be a bug or am I doing something wrong? I know this may be a very basic function but is one of the primary reasons why I have a unlimited internet plan in my cell phone, so its a primary function for me
Download an alternative E-mail client from play store. Faceliler should have removed it on purpose to add more space.

Yes, I was thinking about that possibility, unfortunately the free email clients in market aren't good enough as the stock one in android :crying:

Facebook Sync

Anyone have a way to sync Facebook contacts in JB 4.3 like the one in Sense? Is there a way to pull that file and install it?

Sorry should have been more clear... To import fb contacts like stock.
My understanding is all these apps can do is add photos to existing contacts.
Or does it pull all fb contacts and show them under people?
I know its just a buck, but I don't feel like paying for something that won't work....
Anyone confirm how haxsync work?
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
Well that was a waste of a buck. Haxsync was worthless. All it did was pull birthdays and events for fb contacts. Didn't do anything to pull contacts and their numbers to integrate with phone book.
Plenty of other free apps that could have done this without paying.

Contacts+ is free and syncs with Facebook and g+. I like it
I went back to Sync.me.
I thought maybe since HaxSync was paid might have Facebook contact number capability...
But I think no 3rd party app is capable of it.
Tried contacts+ its OK but nothing spectacular. Sync.me pulled contact information from people that were in my phone but not my Facebook friends off their public profiles.... So now I even have pictures to their names....Useful for like employees, where you don't necessarily want them as Facebook friends but need their number in your phone book.
