Hi everybody,
is there a patch or similar to choose each time how is the delay to remind me again a specific reminder/appointment etc? In windows mobile was a menu like "remind me again in 5 /10 /15/30 min or 1/2 hours or 1/2 days". But in Android apparenlty I couldn't find such option. Can you help me pls? I use the Google calendar, so I don't want to installa different calendar on my Hero, I just need a pacth (or add-on ) to add this funtion.
Thanks for your help.
Byee
Not sure what you mean here? In the Calendar app supplied with the Hero, you can set your reminder timing against events.

Thats true but that reminder does not repeat itself. I suppose the question is how to make a reminder repeat after a specified time.
On a slightly different note:
=====================
Whenever I add an event in the calendars app on the phone (into my Google calendar), the event lists itself 3 times after syncing with Google. Why is that so? How can I fix this? Please help
Yes, this is the question, sorry for my english...

You could try Astrid task manager, which is free in the market.
It allows you to set reminders by day/hour, has a nice UI, and I think the most recent version integrates with the calendar so you get the task added there as well.

Hey Fellows,
SendReceiveAll is just a small program that i created for my own use. In default Windows Mobile client, if you have multiple email accounts and they are set to manual download, like it is with me, While checking mail you need to go to each account and click send and receive. This is a bit tedious.
SO this program, which is a small, no-gui, .net cf app does so. It calls send and receive for all outlook email accounts. This way you can tap it once and then wait for your emails to finish loading at their own pace.
Its a very simple start and i haven't done anything profound with it. Its just an idea that clicked me.
Suggestions and Ideas are welcome from all of you
Thanks!
UPDATE : Here is the link to cab file for this utility. I haven't tested it so cant say about how reliable it is. Thanks to post&telecommunications to make and post it
SendRecieveAll v.1 Cab File
PS: It seems that this doesn't works if you have multiple IMAP accounts. The problem I think happens because IMAP accounts cannot be updated in "Background, Asynchronously". So If thats the case with you, I am sorry, I don't have any solutions right now. I will see if anything can be done about it
Thanks. Works like a charm
Glad to know that you found it useful
Yeah, I've found it a bit tricky to check all my accounts.
For further development, is it possible that you can implement a progressbar that shows, when an account is ready and maybe a dialog that shows how many emails are downloaded per account?
Yeah, I was also having these things in my mind right at the time of developing this version and i am working on these. Actually the method i use to call the sync facility of messaging application is not synchronous , ie. my app doesnt get to know when did the messaging app finished. It gets control back immediately. So i'll have to find a better way to do that. Thanks for the suggestion
Manilla sync data
Thanks for the progy! It would be nice to have this integrate with the Manila "Sync Data" button under settings, Currently this only works for syncing Activesync, but the description does say "and Internet data"
Is any software for Send only?
Is any application for Pocket Outlook, when I want only Send (not Send and Receive)?
Nice application - some suggestions
Great little application! I’ve been wanting something like this for ages – I didn’t want to set my mail accounts to send and receive every 10 or 30 minutes, I wanted them to sync when I picked up the phone and pressed a button – now I can do it without going to my gmail, yahoo, hotmail and Exchange Server pages separately!
As others have pointed out – having something that said mail account 1 of 4 synchronising would be good for progress – at the moment I don’t know whether I’ve got no emails or it hasn’t worked correctly.
If you are going to end up adding options to this, then auto disconnecting the data connection when all mail boxes are synchronised would save me another button press!
Making it work directly from send/receive in Manila is a great suggestion from ‘anothersmith’ – in the mean time I can’t get it to assign to the programs tab in Manila or via Hbutton – it doesn’t pick it up…..?
Good work.
Splelling errror!!
The reason I'm struggling to get the Hbutton to assign via the registry is that the .exe file is spelt incorrectly!
You've got it as SendRecieveAll.exe
Hbutton thread that shows registy values if anyone wants it for now http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=306794&page=2
Usefull application...thanks lot..
By the way ...i got problem coz im use diferent network (3g ,home and wifi)..i should sett the smtp manually before clickthis
great effort
Hi Friends,
Sorry for delay in response i was out of town Thanks for all the great responses. So i guess these are the changes i should try to implement :
1. Visual Notification of the progress and optional data disconnection at the end.
2. Integration with Manilla Sync.
3. Option to send only.
@brandall: If you add a sound to "New Email" notification in Start>Settings>Sounds and Notifications applet, you will recieve a standard notification from the messaging app about the newly recieved emails automatically. I get it on my phone.
@all: Since i only have a HTC Gene at my disposal, i cannot experiment with TouchFlo 3D features. I guess you people are talking about the sync button on tf3d, right? So can anybody tell me the integration procedure for touchflo 3d, i mean the registry keys and all.
I have 3 IMAP accounts, but it only sends/receive the last one
By the way, your app is a great idea!
I have exactly the same. 6 IMAP and it sends / receives only the last one.
Idea is great. Please correct the problem.
Oh, i didn't test it on imap, and i just returned from a long tour. I will look into it asap.
I think that the solution is to make the application aware of the synchronization status on outlook, which apparently can't send and receive from different IMAP accounts at the same time..
But it's only a personal hypothesis since I don't have the foggiest idea of how to program.
it will be greate to make gui with send/recive all... sen all ... recive alll
Hi Great app
one question, can run background? or hiden whith screen off?
i use another app to trigger the send/recieve mail by sms.
thanks
Hey Krazy - any update on this?

I don't know the developer either but yes it works. It synchronizes tasks both ways and basically it reads task categories from your mobile and transfer all your task from a category to newly created sub-category in your gmail task window. So if you have for a example a taks called "change oil" with category "Car", the app will create a category "Car" in your gmail -calendar task window and there you will find all your tasks with category car. Unfortunately you can only view one category at a time in your calendar, so if you want to view all tasks from category for example "business" you will have to switch it from category "car" to category "business"in g- calendar. And that is kind of issue for me because whenever i switch from one category in gmail calendar to other,(change of categories has to be confirmed with left mouse button or enter) gmail-calendar adds "space" to the name of a first task on the list and unfortunately it's synchronized like that...with that annoying space to my mobile, unless i edit it manually which is kind of pain in the ass. Try it for yourself and see how it works for you.
cheers
Thank you!!

Your welcome.
Let me know if you also have this problem in your calendar:
"And that is kind of issue for me because whenever i switch from one category in gmail calendar to other,(change of categories has to be confirmed with left mouse button or enter) gmail-calendar adds "space" to the name of a first task on the list and unfortunately it's synchronized like that...with that annoying space to my mobile"
Maybe i'm doing something wrong.
Also it synchronizes all the past(completed?) tasks from your device so it might take a while.
Hi
Hi guys, just wanted to mention that I'm the author of this app, so if you have any questions or problems don't hesitate to contact me
I'll be monitoring this thread, and can also be contacted on nilsnett at gmail dot com.
Trying it
I am trying the program
I am not experiencing fo now the space in front of the tasks, maybe because I am trying a recent version?
It's not clear to me if and how I can have automatic syncing. Do I do it manually?

The space in front is related to an issue with the way Google Calendar are handling creation of task groups, not the GogTasks app, as arturo points out.
I recommend you guys work with the task list from a different web interface - like for instance the one at http://mail.google.com/tasks/ig or the iGoogle tasks plugin.
With regards to automatic syncing, it does not support that as of yet. I'm planning that option for a future release thought
Unable to Synchronise personal task account
FANTASTIC application.
Unfortunately although it installs correctly and shows all my local
tasks - it refuses to synchronise.
I get the following error:
Communication Error: GTL Cookie Not Set.
With a whole lot of error code afterwards.
I have tried installing to storage card and locally.
I have tried re-booting the device.
I am running a UK HTC HD2 with:
WinMo 6.5
ROM 1.66 WWE
Manila 2.5.1921
C0okies Home Tab 1.8.5
Thank you for your help in advance - I am a heavy user of Google Tasks
and it would be GREAT to be able to synchronise on my phone.
Communication Error: GTL Cookie Not Set
Unfortunately, Got the same problem as above..
I'm working on the problem... I have a suspicion it is related to the fact that Google redirects you to a local server as a part of the authentication process (from www.google.com to i.e. www.google.co.uk) and that that server produces sligthly different output or cookies than the one I'm testing against. I'll see if I can force google to go to a specific server.
Just to be sure.. If one of you please could test GogTasks v1.1 that would be great. I just want to rule out it's not an error I introduced in v2.0 or 2.1. You can get the version from www.gogtasks.com
Works on Samsung sch-i910 on Verizon USA.
Sync on startup and on demand works well. Auto sync would be the best, but it would be useful if, when you close it, it would notify you that a task has been edited without being synced.
Nicely done, I've been hoping for something like this. Hope Google doesn't break it.
I think I am using v. 1.1 and it syncs, even if sometimes it refuses to.
How can I check the Gogtasks version I have (I don't remember which one I installed...)?

Plug your device to your computer, copy the following file from the device to your PC: \program files\gogtasks\MobileEntities.dll. Right-click on the copy of the file and check Properties>Details>Product version. The two first numbers indicate major/minor version.

I am re-posting this from another user on a different forum. He/She wrote exactly what I wanted to say so why change it?
The major shortfall of Android ICS is the inability to handle standard Internet Calendar Sharing (ICS) meeting requests (calendar invitations) sent via email.
Every other platform in the world seems able to handle a meeting invitation sent from a calendar application, whether that is from Microsoft Outlook (worldwide standard in the business world), an iCal file from an Apple device. The web-based version of gmail correctly handles calendar invites and prompts one to respond with a "Yes/No/Maybe" reply.
The native Android gmail app shows either just a blank email or sometimes the text details of a meeting invite. There is no ability to respond to the meeting request. Instead, Android places the item on the Calendar and expects the user to respond to it there. The problem with this approach is the one needs to know where to look on the calendar.
A Google search shows that this has been a known issue for years, yet Google does nothing about it.
Short of ditching the native gmail app for a functional third-party app, how can one enable gmail to handle meeting requests the way every other email application does?

What I want to know is how a black and white screen BlackBerry from the stone ages can read and reply to meeting requests yet my dual-core, multitasking juggernaut of a phone can't preform this simple function. How on earth can Android/Google turn off business users like this??? I am aware that some 3rd party apps on Android do provide this function but they all require you to connect to an exchange server! W T F Google??????

What email app?
dunno what's wrong with my ics but its working fine here, im getting invitation popups and i can respond yes/no/maybe. it seems though that the mail itself is rawtext if you open it, but the invitation will be triggered when the time is proper.

Not sure what caused your issues. I've had invites and responded from the following without problems:
1. Lotus Domino
2. MS Exchange
My systems:
1. Plain Gmail and Gmail calendar (for personal stuffs).
2. Google Apps Gmail and Google Apps Calendar (for business stuffs).
Hope that helps.
I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. Are you saying that in the Android phone's gmail app you get meeting request emails and have the YES/NO/MAYBE buttons available? If YES are you using and ms exchange server? If NO, did the person send the request from a gmail email address?
Invitation Plugin
Check if Invitation Plugin application can solve your issue. It opens ics invites in default calendar where you can accept/decline event.
You can get this app on Google Play:
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cleansoft.invitationplugin
For it to work you need to enable 'Automatically add invitations to my calendar' setting in Google Calendar
support.google.com/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=83117
It requires Android 4.0+ (Ice Cream Sandwich)
Hope that helps.

Does any one know of a free notes and reminders app for Android? Preferably one that is very simple and doesn't do much more than take notes that you write or paste in it, and send notifications to remind you of stuff at a set time. Kind of like what you have on iOS. Having the ability to sync with your Google Account/ Gmail would be a plus. I have been waiting for this to come natively to Android for some time.
If I can't find something like this. I would like to embark on a personal project to create and publish an app or apps that do notes and reminders easily. I would appreciate any help I can get on the way. Thanks.

Just use the calendar, its simple and syncs with whatever you want it to. Theres a notepad app in the market as well for notes.
evernote
I had not tried evernote in a while. I just tried it and the UI is much improved now, so I guess I'll be using it. Thanks! I would like if it did reminders though. I like seeing all my to-dos together separate from my calendar.

Not sure about Evernote, but Catch Notes supports reminders.
I'm looking for a technique or an app that allows me to display a specific Google calendar in an application with one touch and without the use of a web browser or widget.
Ideally, I would simply tap a shortcut on a homescreen that would open an android calendar app, displaying only the specified Google calendar.
The real world use case is that my office is in a building with a shared conference room that has it's own resource calendar. Sometimes, there will be a spark of inspiration and our team will want to get together in the conference room to discuss. Currently, I have to either run to my desk and view the calendar or go through a lot of trouble on my phone to drill down to the day, then hour and select a particular calendar to create an event to reserve the conference room. It would be so much more efficient if I could click one button to see if the conference room is already taken and click once more to create a reservation event if it's available.
I've used AppXplore to expose the intents of the built in Calendar app for use with Tasker. com.android.calendar.selectcalendars.SelectVisibleCalendarsActivity looks promising but I'm not sure of the Extra activity information that would be necessary to only display my desired calendar. I was thinking that I might create a Tasker task that removes all the other calendars from view, open the calendar app, and wait for a particular event to re-activate the other calendars. But again, I'm not sure about the Extras that would be necessary.
Perhaps there's an app that can create shortcuts on the desktop for each calendar. Or perhaps someone knows how to achieve this with Tasker or a shell command. I would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
