HTC Sync and 2.1 Custom Rom - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I am using HTC Sync to get my calendar and contacts imported from Lotus Notes, so I am kind of dependent on it.
Now I plan to install a 2.1 custom rom and wonder, if HTC Sync will still work afterwards.
Any comments?

Yes it will still work.

Depends on the ROM. It certainly won't work with any vanilla ROM's, it's best asking specifically on the ROM you want to flash

sync
the sync software from htc is a bit buggy. on windows vista it works alright but for windows 7 the latest version caused problem with me and I had to put the drivers of vista HTC hero in the hero directory manually to have the phone recognized. There is a thread regarding this whole issue.

I've found something called myphoneexplorer which allows me to sync both outlook contacts and calender.
u have to install both a client on phone and main app on computer
you can find it here just google myphoneexplorer, fj software
I have an htc hero gsm

didn't work
it didn't work with me on Coredroid ROM 6.8

Hi, you can't do this, as HTC Sync is only for HTC Sense ROMs.
But you can sync contacts and calendar etc. to Google or an Exchange server.
For contacts, there is also http://android-sync.com, although it seems to add contacts to the google account, not to local phone addressbook. Works fine with Outlook 2007.

[Q] htc hero with 2.2 villainrom sync problem

I can't sync my newly upgraded htc hero to 2.2 villainrom.
Software used HTC Sync 3.0.5422
Does not detect the phone.
Detects as My HTC (driver version 2.0.x)
Fix?
I need to sync my contacts with Microsoft Outlook.
Thank you.
It isn't sense. You can't use Sync with it. There are many topics about this same issue. Learn to search...
The reason I posted is due to difficulty in finding this issue to be honest. I searched, but did not find much.
Now that I am aware that it is sense issue... There is no 2.2 sense? I tried FROYO_2.2_v1.8_Android_Stock + Sens 1.8 - still no luck with htc sync...
Any thoughts?
There is no HTC Sense on froyo for the hero.
Why not use Google or Exchange ActiveSync to do your syncing?

[Q] "HTC Sync" is useful to you? Any problem?

I knew there's a sync tool on HTC(HTC Sync), but really didn't need to use it daily. Are those stability issue or really useless tool that people get rid of it? Any suggestion?
No reply though! It seems no one admires this tool til now, I'm just curious why HTC and Google android can't build up the entire platform like iTunes. Or Google just doesn't wanna follow up what Apple done?
Personally I think it is useless and pointless. Removed as soon as I can
When I had my Evo, HTC Sync kept messing up my contacts birthdays and couldn't handle any variations in recurring appointments. I bought gSync and it is working flawlessly.
The latest version of HTC Sync is working well and without any problem. I am using it to sync my contacts and calendar with my PC. easy ans fast..
Has anyone noticed HTC Sync misses the last part of the information stored in a contact when it is bigger than a certain number of characters?
I know how to handle this in Active Sync, but not in HTC Sync.
Any idea?
Tanks.
I am still using the old version of HTC sync as when I update it can't recognize my mobile.

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.

[Q] HTC Sync manager after Jellybean update

Hi folks. I am just getting back to work after being out for the holidays. I updated to Jellybean and have been trying to sync to my Outlook calendar. HTC sync no longer appears to work so I removed that and added HTC Sync Manager. Well, this program will recognize the phone now, and will sync some calendar appointments, but misses about 70% of them. I have removed and re-installed HTC sync manager many times, but this still doesn't work. I'm on an XP computer from work. Previously the older HTC Sync worked flawlessly to sync all appointments. Any ideas?
Remove the previous HTC sync and plug in ur phone it should open an auto start with HTC sync and install it

I had this problem, sorted it by downloading HTC Sync Manager from the HTC site version 1.1.77.0, when it was installed the phone synced no problems, this is after having checked that the ealier 1.0.6... version of the software thought that it was the most up to date version. I was relieved once I found thatthe phone would sync again.

the version that you need can be found here... http://www.htc.com/www/software/htc-sync-manager/download/
Thanks, gang. I tried various methods of latest versions, older versions, the whole nine yards; it still wouldn't sync all appointments 100%. I went ahead and just move all my appointments to activesync and just do it that way. I had to make a few changes to how my work mail comes in now, but at least i can see my appointments again.
Sync Manager Issues with latest Jelly Bean update
Hi,
I´ve downloaded the latest sync manager using the link given or doing it directly from the HTC web page.
These are the problems I´m facing with my HTC One X:
1. Cannot use sync manager. When I try to sync my music with my phone the sync manager crashes when it reached around 3%.
2. I cannot access the information I have on my phones hard drive. I saved some document using it as a USB a couple of months ago and cannot access them because my phone is not recognised as a USB.
I´m using a MacBook Pro and not sure If the issues could be related to that.
I´ve been trying to fix this for a couple of week but cant and don´t know what to do. I´ve tried to contact HTC and they are not of any help.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.
