[Q] Exchange 2003 -> Android 2.3.5 Calendar sync problems - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
After having posted earlier about the sync problems here, I would like to find out what is causing the problem.
I have done a lot of flashing lately and am pretty sure it must be either the Calendar/Agenda or the Sync program in Android 2.3.5 that's causing the problems (not sync-ing edited items made on the Exchange/Outlook client side).
Other clients, when installed on the phone, like TouchDown for Exchange, synchronizing everything fine.
My first question would be:
Has the Activesync program on the phone been updated from Android 2.3.4 to 2.3.5?
For, if not, it must be the Calendar/Agenda app that needs to be at the origin of the problems.
Can anyone confirm this?
The other question would be:
Depending on the answer on the first question, could either the sync or the Calendar/Agenda from 2.3.4 be ported to 2.3.5?
I'll gladly be willing to test. I have tried myself to replace the apps, but I don't seem to be able to find the appropriate files.
Anyone any help?
Regards,

Solved by updating to CM7 Android 2.3.7
Hi there,
Problem has been solved for me by updating to VictoryMod 2.1 (based on CM7) which is running Android 2.3.7.
Regards,

I have the same problem with google calendar sync. I have had it since I changed to 2.3.5 JVT and it's still here after changing to 2.3.5 JVU on Galaxy S. Is there a way to fix this without changing the entire rom?

I have also the same problem with GSII but I can't upload another rom, it's a company phone.
Is there anyway to have it working on GSII?
Thx, David

Exchange sync has always been iffy for me. I eliminated the problem using Google Calendar on the phone and using G-Syncit with Outlook to keep my desktop sync'd with Google. It isn't as elegant as using Exchange exclusively, but it has been flawless.
I guess it will work until I can get over the fear of migrating the Exchange Server to Google Mail.

[Q] Google sync problem with contacts

Hello,
i'm facing a problem with my wildfire by syncing the contacts from my phone to the google contacts. i already found different threads regarding that case, but there was no solution yet.
Found out following thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=557075 but unfortunately it doesn't help me.
I'm using the mobile phone since about two month and really guess that it never worked properly. The syncronisation from google to the phone is working fine, but in the reverse way it didn't.
what i've done untill now:
-deleted already all contacts from googlemail and phone simultaneously, after that i imported all conatcts (which i backed up previously) to google again. Afterwards i synced them back to the phone without any problems
-each contact i created new, only on my phone will not be synced to google
-if i'm deleting any contact from google they would be automatically deleted on the phone
-i guess this seems to be a problem with the software, because other cellphone models of htc are having the same problem
i'm still using:
android 2.1 update 1
build number: 1.25.110.1 CL229476
kernel version: 2.6.29-6fb59e13
thank you in advance.
Is there nobody who can help me with that? Am I the only one who's facing that problem???
ive got like between one and 25questions to ask first.... there is one other option... just wipe the thing and let the google do its job. if your on froyo great. just ON COMPUTER fix up your contacts and whatever and save the account ON COMPUTER then wipe that phone. yes youll have to invest a wee bit of time restoring but that comes with the territory. google will restore what it restores.
any sync data u have now....is known to googles pushy servers. they push data rather than pull. which is awesome.
if u really need more help just PM

[Q]TouchDown not syncing

Sorry I posted this question on the development forum first....
Has anyone noticed that on rooted 1.1.0 touchdown is not syncing anymore? I'm sure it was working on my auto-nooted 1.0.1 but then I restored several times and now on the newly installed rooted 1.1.0 I can no longer sync my google contacts. I then tried it on nookie froyo and can not get it to work either. Can anyone with touchdown verify that?
Thanks!
I can't seem to get touchdown working after using autonooter and then applying the 1.1 update. It was working for me in 1.0.1
Sent from my nook color XDA App
one problem I noticed on our exchange environment was every time I did a manual sync it created a new device partnership on the exchange server. At the time I was running 1.0.1 rooted though. I haven't tried 1.1 yet. If you have access to your exchange infrastructure you may want to check out how many device profiles you have associated with your account. Exchange I think has a set limit of 10 partnerships per user.
On a similar note touchdown doesn't seem to want to sync on froyo either. however I think it's having trouble getting past the 2010 device policies. Strange that it works on my hero.
I had problems setting up. Their support was phenomenal. So I would contact directly. Solution was their new beta release (not on market). Now works great for me on 1.1... TX didn't like wifi reset. Also contacts can be an issue if TX is reformatting on sync (then sync can take an hour and get stuck in a loop)
anyone find resolution to this problem?
I am having the same issue. Touchdown works fine on my Evo but nook color cant even initialize activesync now. This used to work on 1.0.1 but would create new partnerships every sync.

[Q] Mail app is not working on android 2.1 htc hero

Hi guys,
The mail application is down ( do you know the video for sysadmin: the website is down )
I have htc hero running on villain 13.0 rom, very nice rom btw .
But I am not here to review this rom... i have problem with my mail application. I've setup my mail to my company's account few months ago, and suddenly it stops working... i tried to delete the account and add it again, but i am always getting this message:
"Failed to create the account. Please try again later"
Does some of you experience same problem? I ask my IT department for my problem, they are not aware of, they only told me that they upgrade the exchange server to 2010 version.
I've tried to setup my account, using Elelinux latest gingerbread rom, and it works like a charm!
So my conclusion is that, exchange 2011 is somehow incomaptible with android 2.1
My question is, do you maybe know some workaround, how to use mail app on android 2.1, which should be synced with exchange server 2010?
The GB roms are ok, but personally I think 2.1 sense roms are much better for our heros ...
Thanks
Kind regards,

[Q] Fix Android MS Exchange setup wizard to allow Lotus Traveler connection

We are running Lotus Notes at work (I will accept all the pity that anyone cares to give me). We have version 8.x and have Lotus Traveler servers up and running. The Lotus Traveler software on android leaves a few things to be desired.
Traveler server can speak standard ActiveSync. The problem is that the Gingerbread and Froyo versions of the Exchange setup on android broke the ability to put in a custom URL for the "exchange/traveler" server.
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=14486
Is anyone aware of any way around this? I would like to remove the traveler software and just use the built in email app with my lotus email. There are some apps that you can run on the android that will use ActiveSync to work with a traveler server but I really wanted to use the built in email app if possible.
Maybe someone who developed a custom Email.apk that allowed for a manual server URL?
Thank you.
Working EMail.apk
Hi,
I had the same problem. I patched the current EMail.apk from Gingerbread, now it works for all my Traveller Accounts. This version is the Galaxy Tab version, but should also work on smaller devices.
Have fun,
Bender.

Thank you. How does one install this? Do I need to remove the old Email.apk or can I install this one over the top? (phone is rooted but does not have custom rom or kernel)
Problem with BodyPreference
Hi,
I have one more problem with the current app.
I get only Mime Encoded EMails and they are not displayed correctly.
I have to first work this out, then you can use the app.
When you have a roote phone, all you have to do is go to /system/app
delete Email.apk and Email.odex (if you have one), then copy the new Email.apk to this plays. Open Email.apk, the app is installed and then reboot your device.
Bender.
Awesome. Thank you for working on this.
Any luck making this work?
I have a Lotus Notes Traveler account and i'm trying to make use of the built-in email in ICS. All my calendar entries and mail headings are syncing just fine but there's no visible body to be read in any email.
Anyone with a solution?
Nobody?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Hi,
I am on stock ICS Galaxy Note and want to use my lotus notes using native email client but I am not able to sync because my company uses port number in server name like :
mail.mydomain.com:15001/servlet/traveler
if i put :15001 the mail client Next button gets disabled any fix for this?
Same here.... This custom port is killing me... You could try setting a port forwarding from another computer, setting ot as you server.
Not sure it will work, but it might.
Also if anyone here has the latest LotusTraveler.apk (v. 8.5.3.2) could you please post?

Mega Urgent Outlook sync problem

I was wondering if anyone out there has suffered and resolved the following issue.
I have a Sensation which is running ICS version 4.0.3 and software number 3.32.401.5 the ROM I’m currently using is found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1529941 the deodexed version.
I use this phone for work and up until 2 weeks ago everything was working without issues but for some unknown reason all of a sudden, HTC Sync has stopped working. I’m now unable to Sync my work calendar to my phone and since the office are often updating my diary via a CRM package I need these changes to be reflected on my phone. I know it’s not the HTC Sync program, as I have the sync software installed on 3 machines. My home laptop, my work laptop and my work desktop and the phone no longer syncs to any of them. I’ve installed and reinstalled (and before anyone asks antivirus was turned off ), still no joy.
Does anyone one know what might have gone wrong or does anyone know of a different app or program I can use to update the calendar? I did try Google calendar sync but that just didn’t sync, no matter what sync interval I used.
I must add I’m only trying to get my outlook appointments to show up on my phone I don’t need a 2 way sync solution.
Thanks in advance for any help and advice given.
