Please Help !!. Desperately need to Sync G1 with PC

Dear All,
I am sorry if i have posted in a wrong forum.
But currently i need to Sync my G1 with PC.
I am currently using Jac Hero ROM.
Need Help
Please suggest

A little more information so we actually know what you're talking about would be nice. What do you mean "Sync"? Are you having problems signing in to google?

I need to Sync my Contacts, Calendar and Notes on outlook to G1.

Then you need the "HTC Sync" program for your PC and phone, but it was removed from the ROM. Send a PM to "Justanothercrowd" and "ccryrowski" asking them how to push back HTC Sync apk's. Or ask in the thread.

I dunno if google has a service to sync that info with your gmail account but if it does you can do so on your pc and any changes you make in gmail will sync with your g1 ota.

I use TooDo and ToodleDo with ToodleDo Outlook Sync for tasks
There are many, many calendar sync options, including one by Google
Google has a contact sysncing app that will sync your contacts with Outlook
It's a Google phone, so most of the solutions sync to your Google account in the cloud both from/to Outlook, and from/too your phone.
My suggestion? Google it. Pick one and try it.

Lookup "touchdown" in the market. It is made to sync your outlook with your phone. If I remember right the HTC app only does email but Touchdown does the whole package.

[Q] Very Honest Advice Neede

Hi, I have the chance to buy an unlocked/unbranded Galaxy S, but I need your advice about the following:
a. Exchange Mail/Calendar/Contact sync, this is a deal braker for me, the only experience that I have with android was the Milestone, with the Milestone using the mail program or TouchDown was imposible to make my exchange account work, mail worked sometimes, calendar and contact never.
My company use Exchange 2010 with enforced security, I have no problems using it on my symbian devices (E71 and now N97 mini), of course WinMo phones also work without problem the same as iPhone (my wife work with me and her iPhone works), I have no partners with android phones to check with them. Asking anything to my IT is not an option, my company is large (+250K employees) and they won´t make exceptions.
b. Can I use hotmail via IMAP or only POP? (please, don´t suggest to use Gmail, I also use Gmail but need access to Hotmail)
c. My country is not android market "friendly", any experience using Market Enabler to access the market and buying on it?
Many many thanks for your answers. Regards.

I can only answer to C:
Use MarketAccess:
http://amip.tools-for.net/wiki/android/marketaccess
And Eris Market Fix (found in Android Market, to see the protected apps).
I have been using these on 2.1 and now 2.2 and they are working perfectly.
So glad that I have been able to buy apps!

I can only reply to b:
imap works with the stock client but you're better off with K9 from the market (it's free) as it supports imap push and works well.

For b. you can use gmail (a. I'm not sure but you can try it)
Let me explain:
On gmail Settings > Accounts and Import
In Send mail as:
Click on Send mail from another adress (follow the steps)
Then under:
Check mail using POP3:
Click on Add POP3 email account (follow the steps)
Now you will be able to recieve and send message from and to your hotmail account.
If you don't want to do it this way look on community.seven.com for their mail app

NB! Your company Exchange administrators could (and should) in any time to exclude any phone OS to synchronize according to the company policy for security or another reason.
Question a:
- this should not be possible in the Eclair native eMail application (version 2.1 of Android). This might be possible in paid applications, if they have full MAPI compatibility.
- this should be better possible in the Froyo (version 2.2 of Android). Don't know if it works out of box, but...:
Exchange support
Improved security with the addition of numeric pin or alpha-numeric password options to unlock device. Exchange administrators can enforce password policy across devices.
Remote wipe: Exchange administrators can remotely reset the device to factory defaults to secure data in case device is lost or stolen.
Exchange Calendars are now supported in the Calendar application.
Auto-discovery: you just need to know your user-name and password to easily set up and sync an Exchange account (available for Exchange 2007 and higher).
Global Address Lists look-up is now available in the Email application, enabling users to auto-complete recipient names from the directory.
Exchange information from http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.2-highlights.html.

there is also TouchDown 2.0 (paid) for Android that is vastly improved over TouchDown 1.0
back to hotmail account, it works great with the Samsung push Email & IM program, i have all my hotmail accounts real & fake ones all running simultaneously.
but as metioined above if you'd like more funtionality then you might be better off with K9 (free) mail app.

the samsung modified email app push works for you? I only checked with the stock firmware i had (JF3) and didn't have push for imap
btw: i'm personally not a lot in favor of importing stuff to gmail. that's embrace and extend at it's best: they read all data for their statistics. So ok it's a google os with a lot of such stuff but i'd rather separate some things when possible. (note:k9 is giving full satisfaction, just wondering about stock)

yes i'm using the Samsung Push Email as my main email app for all my email accounts, including google
4 accounts from hotmail
3 accounts from yahoo
12+ accounts from gmail
i hardly use my PC for email now since i got the phone, it's amazing!

Many thanks to all, one thing that Android doesn´t lack is user´s support. Since the N8 is delayed again I ordered the Galaxy S to give it a try.

I can respond in general that if you going to use Galaxy frequently with GPS, WIFI, Email then carry your charger or USB plug.
I found that even with light usage the battery needs to be charged everyday which I find it that I cant use it as my main phone as I travel a lot and I need more than 2 day with light usage of phone.

Simple sync with Google, but how?

This is my first Android phone and I'd like to sync my S-Planner calendar with my gmail account but I can't get it to work.
On the Note I go S-Planner>settings>calendars and check "My calendar" and the email account. Then >Calendar sync>Sync all.
My Agenda items should appear in the calendar on gmail right? But they don't. Can anyone help please?

There are other threads on this - you should've searched the forums first (as per the rules)
In an attempt to help, just from recollection, My Calendar IS the local phone calendar and can only be synced via Kies. If you want to sync with google then you need to use your google account calendar instead. In S-Planner settings untick My Calendar and tick the calendar for your google account. All appointments should now be added to your google account and sync with google's servers. Obviously you'll have to add your entries again Or work out how to move them.

Thank you. Yes, of course I checked other posts, but I couldn't find anyone who couldn't sych at all and who was able to identify a reason that I hadn't already explored, hence the question. As a teacher I know the joy of sharing knowledge, so thank you for your help.

[Q] email client

Hi, I'm about to buy this phone, but I want to hear some opinions about email client, exchange support, exchange notes/task sync and exchange contacts search.
I found that default AOSP exchange integration is kind of "basic", on the other hand Samsung (Note JB) email client it's pretty good.
Can I have some advise regarding this?
Thanks!

The built in Exchange integration is a little basic for a high end business phone...
1. There is no Task or Note sync
2. Can't find setting for "sync on open" in Mail and Calendar
3. Exchange contact search works fine
4. Wil display html with Exchange 2003

Anyway, loves the phone

[Q] Problem synchronizing contacts with birthdays in Z1

My Sony Xperia Z1 running Android 4.4.4 has a major problem synchronizing contacts with birthdays. When editing a contact which has a birthday set, synchronizing will fail.
It will only work if the contact was created on the device or the birthday itself has been changed on the device.
Scenario 1:
1) Create contact with birthday, e.g. in Outlook.
2) Sync it to the Exchange server.
3) Sync Sony Xperia Z1 with the Exchange server -> Contact will appear.
4) Try to edit contact on Sony Xperia Z1 and sync with Exchange server again.
--> Contact synchronization fails.
5) Edit contact on Sony Xperia Z1 and set birthday to another date. Then set original date again.
6) Sync Sony Xperia Z1 with Exchange server.
--> Contact synchronization successful.
Scenario 2:
1) Create contact with birthday on Sony Xperia Z1 .
2) Sync it to the Exchange server.
4) Try to edit contact on Sony Xperia Z1 and sync with Exchange server again.
--> Contact synchronization successful.
Scenario 3:
1) Create contact with birthday on Sony Xperia Z1 .
2) Sync it to the Exchange server.
3) Clear contact storage on Sony Xperia Z1 or remove Exchange account and add it again.
4) Re-sync with Exchange server.
5) Try to edit contact on Sony Xperia Z1 and sync with Exchange server again.
--> Contact synchronization fails.
6) Edit contact on Sony Xperia Z1 and set birthday to another date. Then set original date again.
7) Sync Sony Xperia Z1 with Exchange server.
--> Contact synchronization successful.
I've seen in an online fórum, which is an android issue, puts this:
I was able to resolve this issue in the Android source Exchange app by modifying EAS.java the SimpleDateFormat static method at the bottom of the class
Although google linked to Exchange Date Format in their comment they did not implement it fully. They only used 1 significant digit for milliseconds while the linked site shows three in the example. To their (google dev) credit, the documentation states these digits are optional. When I changed it to use three significant digits for milliseconds it now synchs correctly when creating a new contact with birthday on android device.
change to:
DATE_FORMAT = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS'Z'", Locale.US);
thanks

What are the steps to edit the file and to get the change to the device?
Thanks for a short description.
