[Q] Exchange calendar not syncing - Resurrection Remix ICS v2.4[4.0.4] - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have my i9100 with Resurrection Remix ICS v2.4[4.0.4] installed and tried to set up my work's Exchange account on it.
I specifically configured it so that it synchronizes the Exchange calendar too, but when I go to the phone's calendar, it only shows the ones from my Gmail account, not the Exchange one.
From the calendar application, if I go to Menu - Calendars to display - Calendars to sync, it does NOT show my Exchange account with its calendar.
If I go to Menu - Settings it shows my both accounts (Gmail and Exchange) but when I go to the Exchange one, it shows the message "No calendars" as if the account doesn't have a calendar to show. I'm positive that the Exchange server didn't change because until Friday I had an official ICS 4.0.3 rom and I was able to sync and add events to my Exchange calendar.
Any help on how to fix this or some workaround? I really need my Exchange calendar to be fully functional.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,

Lots of views and no answers? Please help me solve this or at least mention if it won't ever work...
Thanks

I'm experiencing the same issue. Have you managed to find a fix for this yet?

Why not post this in the rr thread? They're going to be able to help more than here

try 3rd part app
u may try
Smooth Calendar from playstore

I tried to ask in rr's thread but nobody replied to my questions...
Regarding 3rd parties, I'd like to try a stock solution if possible, but I'll give it a try anyway.
Thanks!

stocks apps wont work in aokp

I tried with that app and it's just a widget, but it doesn't fix anything. Maybe another third party that completely replaces the built-in calendar? I can't believe that the rom calendar can't sync with exchange just like that. Any reason to justify it? Is this for all AOKP roms?
Thanks.

Same thing. That calendar doesn't make use of its own provider for Exchange. It keeps relaying on rom builtin system. Is there a way to install the provider/connector for Exchange? I noticed that even when it looks similar to stock, the calendar app used in this rom is a mod or something belonging to the hydrogenics author (paradoxxx). Maybe there's a workaround for this?

I think I found the solution to this, cryptically posted on another forum.
But essentially, in Accounts and Sync, where you're only seeing your Google Accounts and not the exchange one, turn sync off and then re-add the exchange account to the list. It won't work if you have sync turned on, it will just tell you that exchange account has already been synced.
Once you've re-added the account you'll be free to turn sync back on and it should work the way it did before you upgraded to ICS.

I've just updated to 4.0.4 original from Samsung, but I didn't like it, so I'll be rolling back to RR ICS and will give it a try... I'll love you if I get this to work this way! lol!
Thanks for your reply. I'll get back to confirm whether or not it worked...

I've had this problem for the past month, and I finally figured it out....no thanks to HTC, AT&T or my Exchange Active Sync provider. They all told me it was their problem, but another provider's issue. I was about to throw them all under the bus.
My problem was that the Exchange ActiveSync calendar stopped syncing, although the email and contacts worked fine. Appointments from my phone would sync to Outlook, but any appointment I put in Outlook would not sync to my phone.
This is my solution:
On my HTC Vivid, android version ICE, 4.0.3, AT&T cellular provider.
I went to: Home, Menu, Settings, Apps, All Apps, Calendar Storage.
Clear Data in Calendar Storage. This should erase the Exchange Calendar from your phone. I did not even have the Exchange Calendar as an option to view when I opened my Calendar.
Now, Remove the Exchange Account, and re-install it. No need to turn the phone off in between. My calendar worked perfectly after that.
If you really want to be thorough, clear the data on the Calendar and Calendar Widget, also.
I could not clear the cache in Calendar Storage, Calendar or Calendar Widget - it was not an available option for me.
I hope this helps!!!

This fixed it for me on my CM10 US Cellular Galaxy S3! Thanks!!!

Its working for me! Thanks!!
Just uncheck sync of Google account (calendar), delete data in app setting/calendar storage (Home, Menu, Settings, Apps, All Apps, Calendar Storage.
Clear Data in Calendar Storage) and than delete Exchange account and setup it again.

Exchange Sync without Motoblur

First install Email2.1.apk.
Open Email.app
Setup exchange account.
Now, install CorpCal.apk.
After this, Defy should sync mail, contacts and calendar.
Does it sync google accounts or just corporate?

Yeah. I did but the localization of "Coperate Calendar" is "Google Calender" if you happen to have german locales selected. I did not find the application on on the first tries. But many thanks it now works.
Maildroid
Why not use Maildroid. I found it to be excellent for corporate sync. Except for the Ads, but that OK.
Worked perfectly for me. Went back to blur just because I didn't like having two calendars, but if I get a ROM without Blur this is what I will use.
thnx a lot German Buddy
As I just found this thread:
For people interested, I posted some more detailed instructions on how to install the files here. The removal of the blured email app is not necessary, of course.
Hello,
first of all thanks for this solution, sounds promising. Nevertheless i have some problems:
I installed both files and could setup my exchange account (windows live) afterwards. It seems that it worked, at least there were no error messages, but my defy doesn't synchronize contacts anyway. A test mail has not been received too.
So what did i wrong?
Another question: Does the provided Calender App work with non-google calenders (windows live) too?
Edit: Ok, Push Mail and Contact Sync works now. Obviously there is no error message when you type in a wrong password.
Anyway: The Calender Sync doesn't work. Is this only for Google Calender?
Touchdown
Without the best app for corporate email, calendar, contacts and tasks. Completetely independant from built in apps, provides security, well laid out and plenty of options for alerting, signiture option and lots more

Calendar NOT Synchronizing

Hi All,
I have registered my Google Apps account on my LG P500.
This is the only account configured on the phone.
I have my contacts and mails synchronizing well with my phone, however my Calendar is just not synchronizing with the Phone.
I have upgraded the Phone to 2.2.2 and have done a factory re-set many number of times, however the Calendar is still not synchronizing with the Phone.
I at times see 2-3 Calendar entries synced with the Phone, but the complete Calendar is not Synchronizing with the Phone.
This same Google Apps account syncs well with my HTC Hero (2.1), including the Calendar.
Can someone please suggest a solution for this issue.
I almost want to throw the phone in the Bin.
PLEASE HELP.
Any chance you have multiple Google calendars and the phone is only syncing the main one?

[Q] Can't access multiple email accounts

I have just got my SII and am trying to connect to both of my Google accounts - my Gmail account is the one I use for trash & Market, my Google Apps account is the one I need for email, contacts & calendar.
It syncs the Gmail account fine, connects to the Google Apps account fine but only shows Calendar & Contacts for sync, the email account is missing. I was using a Nexus One fine with both accounts but the SII just won't see the G_Apps email.
Anyone got any ideas ?
Handset from O2 UK, locked I assume.

O___o
That is a bit of a bummer. I use at least 2 Google Apps accounts... Though I'm pretty sure that this sort of functionality comes from the Google stuff, rather than Samsung...
Did you add them both in the same way?

prolly your are forgetting a checkbox... are you syncing both accounts?
in gmail app, under accounts do you see both accounts?
I have both a GMail account and a Google Apps account - both are syncing fine here, showing sync options for calendar, contacts and mail for both accounts.
So must be something specific to your setup - definitely not a SGS2 or Google limitation
Can't work out why this happened, it is working now so it may have been a setting or anything, I deleted the G_Apps account & added it again & it all worked.
Thanks

Exchange contacts sync

I currently have a stock Telstra ROM and will remain as a stock ROM until Telstra release the firmware so I have a warranty copy
I am having issues with the Exchange contacts and Sync - it is set to sync contacts, email, calendar, etc., and when you initially set up the account, all the contacts sync, but if I delete a contact on my phone, it remains in Outlook and if I create a new one in Outlook, it doesn't appear on my phone. The Calendar and email seem to work just fine.
This is becoming a major problem, as I have to create the contact twice, and if I forget the create it on my phone, I have no information for the client I want to call.
Can anyone offer a solution to this - is there a setting I have missed. Is it a bug?
thanks

Outllok only syncs contacts with basic information like names and phone numbers. Any extra like pictures and notes will not resync beccuase it does not recognize these fields.

I do have some contacts with contact images - which do sync the first time you set up the account. However, I created a test contact on the phone - nothing extra and it doesn't sync and I also then created a contact in Outlook with no extras, and it doesn't sync either. This must be a bug, but it is one I have to find a solution for fast, as it effects my business.
thanks

I take it that Contacts were included in the setup of adding the Exchange email account.
Can you view the email account via a web browser? If you can, then you can find out if the problem is with the phone or the Outlook on the computer.

Yes it was.
There is no problem with the web outlook, outlook our the exchange server, it is the phone.

I know that it is tedious, but what happens when you remove the account from your phone. Switch it off and on, then add the account again?

It does the initial sync of all contacts, but then no more sync of changes.

Go into Contacts, select Option button, Mor-> Settings -> Save new contacts to. You get the option to save to the Phone, Google (your gmail account) and Microsoft Exchange (your work exchange email account). Select the Exchange option.
When you go into Contacts, select Option buttonthen select Sync contacts. Alternatively you could just go to the email app and do a refresh, then the (Exchange email) contacts should sync.

Already have tried that - it is set to save to Exchange and doing the sync there or in "account and sync" doesn't change anything. I even contacted Samsung and all they suggested was buying Touchdown from the app store - great product Samsung has if they can't even support their own software.
DT
Same issue here. Works fine for a few days then bam! stops syncing. the only way to get it updated is to blow out the contacts on the phone and re-do the initial sync. Which sucks if you have added contacts on the phone.
Evidently this is not an isolated issue. Based on reports from others in other forums, many of which are from IT professionals, this is a recurring issue with no discernible rhyme or reason.
I have a hotmail account. I put on my phone as an exchange account.
I added a contact via the browswer on my PC. Synced my phone and the contact appeared. Deleted it on the phone, synced the account. Checked on the PC and the contact had gone.
I repeated this with a few contacts. some started on the phone and some on the PC. I also took some contacts and modified their details. and synced. There were later modified again with different details on the PC. Every test showed that there was not a problem.
I am using the stock KF3 ROM and the test was run in the standard e-mail app. I have Enhanced Email (just so that I can sync more than 1 month).

Nope - Samsung said that there is limited support for Activesync and to use touchdown (at $20 from the market). I am using the trial of it at the moment, and even though it does sync the contacts within the touchdown app, it doesn't sync between the app and the stock contacts, which your phone uses for dialing, text, etc.
It is a major bug, and one they don't seem to want anything to do with.
DT
I once again contacted Samsung Support indicating that the contacts sync is a bug and what solutions are likely on the horizon. This is the response...
Thank you for contacting Samsung Customer Care.
Android is an open source operating system owned by Google. If this is
not functioning, it is configuration of the exchange itself that will be
creating issues.

Calendar syncing issue on Galaxy S3

I'm just starting off with Android, and I can't figure out how to get my Google Calendar synced with the S3. Here is a screenshot of when I hit Calendars in "S Calendar": http://i.imgur.com/p3CcV.png
When I create a new event, I can choose which calendar it should be in: http://i.imgur.com/7V5lS.png
I created a Test event and tried choosing either of the other calendars, saving and syncing, but no matter what I cannot see the event on any other machine with my Google account. In Accounts and Sync, my Google account options are all checked to sync. This damned thing will not sync, though
(Contacts syncs fine, thankfully). Would appreciate any help!

My advice is to login from your notebook or desktop computer first and access Google Calendars directly as you can setup your main calendar much easier there. Once setup (calendar name, color, sharing options, etc), you can easily go under S Calendar and choose to sync the name of the calendar you just created online.
Afterwards, you'll be able to add/delete events from both your device or on your computer. Hope this helps!
Thanks, the problem is a little different now as I finally got the damned thing to sync with my Google account. Now, every time I create a new Event I keep getting the default calendar to be Samsung Calendar: https://www.dropbox.com/s/iq8bco0pnp7s2ni/Screenshot_2012-06-28-21-23-52.png
Yet in the S Planner Settings > Calendars I have this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hdj6hpp3tjvo66y/Image-1530870737.png As you can see, I only have my Gmail account checked, I have the My Calendars/Tasks and Samsung account all unchecked.
I even went into Accounts and Sync and unchecked every option for my Samsung account there, so the only account syncing right now on my phone is my Google account. Still the new Events in S Planner default to the Samsung Calendar!?! Greatly appreciate any way to solve this
Have you tried clearing data in calendar and calendar storage in settings yet? Then resync calendar stuff after that.

I'm having the same issue after I created a new gmail account. It syncs fine with my BlackBerry. When I added my new gmail account on my S2 it wouldn't sync my calendar or contacts. I thought there was an issue with my S2. It won't sync to my S3 as well. Is there something in gmail that I have to do? The calendar dates are still syncing on my old gmail account.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks, I did that, even rebooted the phone, but Samsung Calendar is still default. I think I'm going to use Jorte and forget about S Planner, despite how great it looks :/
I fixed my gmail calendar sync issues. No need to respond in case someone figures it out later on.
I got Calendar Calendar Events synced just fine, but apparently it won't sync Google Tasks. It wants you to use the Samsung-specific task system I guess. That sucks.
As soon as I root my phone I will delete the calendar app. I use the "Jorte" calendar app (available in Play store) which syncs everything and has the most robust options of any calendar app that I've seen so far (wince the last time I went app hunting last November, could be new apps by now). Jorte allows you to view Google Calendar Events and Google Tasks at the same time in multiple, customizeable different types of views (monthly, various versions of weekly views, daily, etc). Jorte is SUPER customizeable. I have found no other app that comes close in terms of functionality.
Another app call "LLama - Location Profiles" lets you automatically customize just about any aspect of your phone depending on your location and time of day. It will change your profiles automatically when you enter or leave a location at certain times. You can even tell it to remind you about something based on location and time. For example, you can have Llama remind you to "Clean Mom's car" when you arrive at Mom's house, or to "Ask my boss that question before I leave work!" if you are at your work location and it is almost time to leave.
That's a shame Samsung won't let you sync Google Tasks.
It's even more of a shame that Android's native Calendar app doesn't support Google Tasks. Come on now Google!

Thanks, yeah I have gone through oodles of calendar and task apps over the last few days, tried damn near everything worth trying, and I've settled with an excellent combo for me: Astrid + Jorte + Agenda Widget. It does everything I need. Thanks for the Lama app heads-up, will check it out!

same here
What's the "desktop g-calendar?"
Though I've been using Jorte all this time quite happily, after resetting a few days back I solidified that not entering your Samsung account information on first boot of the phone solves the S Planner syncing/calendar choice issue pretty much. You must set your Google account up first, then a Samsung account if you'd like. S Planner will then see the Google account as "default" and use it.
desktop as in when i access from my desktop pc. or laptop.

S3 Calendar Syncing issue
I just added a Google Calendar from the play store. Synced instantly!
unprofessional
Dear Google-Android- and Samsung-S3-developers!!
Here is a list of some very annoying facts:
- I have a Sasmung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 with the latest Android-Version 4.1.2.
- if I set up a new Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account on my S3 and sync it with my corperate Exchange 2010 Server I have duplicated entries in my S-Planner Calendar right from the very first sync.
- especially birthday entries (untimed entries with yearly repeat) are duplicated.
- I can reproduce this bug no matter how often I delete the calendar memory, remove and re-instal the Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account, reset my phone etc.
- if I google this bug I get thousands of hits where users are reporting the very same bug with their Android phones (like in this thread).
- some of these duplicate entry bug reports go back for more than 1 year but so far no solution.
- syncing of contacts, emails and calendar entries with MS Exchange is considerd to be a basic function of a smart phone. That's why this functions is part of the pre-installed OS.
- the pre installed Exchange clients on all other devices (Apple iPhone, Nokia Symbian or Windows phones etc.) do NOT have this bug. Thus this is an Android bug and not MS Exchange.
SO WOULD YOU PLEASE FINALLY FIX THIS ANNOYING BUG IMMEDIATELY!!!!!!!!!!
