For some reason it doesn't copy Birthdays over, i looked into this a few weeks ago as i wanted all the birthdays to be displayed on my calender widget
Any ideas how without inputting them one by one?
I did it with a spread sheet and import. So of far no issue.

Spreadsheet eh? I thought there would would be a much easier way that would could possibly auto update.. Ah well..Thanks for the info!

Would be a very nice idea for an app I think.
Think this works on 2.1. My missus has a htc legend and it works on hers

It would be good to have an option to sync events that you have accepted but I get SO many that I'm not interested in. So hopefully if they add it they will let you filter out the crap!
If anyone's interested, I've tried a few calendar apps... I wanted one with a decent widget and a nice "full app" to go with it. And then I found Jorte and I'm sooooo pleased with it. The customization may be a little too deep for some users, and it's not synced to your Google calendar by default for some reason, but once set up its GREAT! It might even make entering your Facebook events manually a joy! Well probably not.
REALLY nice widgets though. Sorry to wander off topic but I've not seen much mention of it and I think it's worth a cheeky mention.
Jorte - excellent - I'm now officially converted!

Yeah doubletwist is really awesome for itunes sync. For Addressbook you could use Googlemail and sync it with your Addressbook, and for iCal use Google Calendar and sync it with iCal.
Works perfect for me the only strange think is if I want to Notify myself with a Popup on my Phone about an appointment, I have to set the time in iCal min. for 15 minutes before, 10 minutes doesn't work.
Ah yeah and the field for Birthday isn't synced from Googlemail and Addressbook, they have a different way of doing it.
Thanks, thought to avoid Google.

Today I added new Google account to my defy, but when asking what to sync there's no option for calendar (only mail and contacts). Is it a bug or what?
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App
Unfortunatly, only the first account synchronize to Calendar. Others don't.
Really? This is disappointing :-\.
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App
If it's not a privacy issue, you could always share the calendar to the other Google account. If the calendars are visible from your calendar.google.com page, they'll appear on your Defy
Thanks efpob, I followed your suggestion and it's working pretty well.

glad it worked for you. I'm doing it this way as well. You can even add events to the shared calendar.
I asked this in a different thread but it was moving so fast I think people over looked it.
Is there anything from the gb roms that i can do/add that will allow social hub sync my contacts? I loved how it showed all my Facebook friends birthdays in my calendar. i noticed HTC sense would do this too.
It might not be that its social hub that isn't allowing it it could be the calendar. maybe im missing a step. When I sign into my social hub fb account it shows to sync calendars but it doesn't show their birthdays.
Any help would be great. Thanks.

I know that after installing the Facebook app, you get presented with a screen which asks you what you want to sync. Personally I hate it so I always click 'do not sync' but I'm pretty sure it'll let you sync like Sense does?
Facebook app settings has a way to sync FB.
but the only thing the FB app actually sync is the picture and phone number, and maybe email, I don't remember it syncing birthdays.

Maybe social hub in ics is missing something a file or something it had in GB?

Hey guys I have added the Facebook acct (for syncing) but the calendar keeps saying "sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly". Ive tried removing the acct and adding it back but its still happening. Any1 any ideas why this is happening or how to fix?
I'm having the same issue. Looks like the last time it sync'ed was 02/07 how about you? The strange thing is that Gallery sync on the same account is working normally, and contact sync for the facebook app itself is working normally.
I'm putting this down to an issue on facebook's side - as I've also tried removing the account and re-adding.
It would be interesting to see if our devices stopped syncing on the same day.
i am having the same issue as well, gonna give it a day or so and see if it works itself out. i agree that its probably on the FB side of things
Same here.. It's probably the FB protocol or something knowing them post if you figure it out. Wonder if newer roms work or not? Be a quick upgrade then port the new file umm

Just replaced the SNS.apk from /system/app with a newer version from the latest ROM released. Seems to work!
I'll upload the files tomorrow to drop box, odex and none, tomorrow some time..
Edit: Here is a link to the files. Suggest you backup your old ones first and replace. Delete dalvik cache, reboot, add the new account. Might take another reboot to get your apps going. Working in Jorte Calender now

Hi, you can also export your FB calendar via parameters in your FB web page, and paste it in your google calendar (always via web), activate it in your sgs3 calendar app and it's good
See link below for more details: (works for events and birthday)

Yeah I already synced my fb bdays through Google before this happened and bdays is the only event type I have so I unticked the calendar syncing.

Hello,
I'm quite new to this forum and i have couple of questions regarding this rom. First to say, I've been using omega roms for most of the time on my s3 and I was quite happy with it, but this new AOKP rom is totally new experience to me. It's like jumping from a donkey to a horse (if i can put it like that). It's like it's made just for me. I'm rly enjoying it. There are just few minor things that are bugging me right now.
1. Nobelium and Neon options load the same sound for alarm.
2. When i make a new event on calendar, dark green color appears for it in my widget. Is there a way to customize it cause it rly stands out from the rest of my screen.
Thanks in advance, I know that my english isn't that good but I think you'll figure what I wanted to ask from this post
Can you make a fake event and screenshot the calendar please? Also advise if its Gmail / exchange / hotmail etc

Well, I didn't rly get that last part of your answer, and I can't put a link in my reply. So if someone can explain to me how to leave it here I'd be grateful.
You can upload images into posts. Look under where you type.
Your calendar events will be linked to your Gmail account or your work account etc. I need to know which.

Sorry didn't see that before. My calendar is linked to my gmail account. When I go to calendar settings my gmail account is the same dark green color and my contacts are dark blue.
Thanks for taking the time for the screenshot.
I wanted to ensure it was the Calendar account colour rather than anything else it might be.
I personally use this app to change the account colours. You can supposedly change it in google calendar on your computer but that can be a bit awkward, particularly if you change wallpapers often and need to prevent a clash. This app will do aother calendars aswell as google too. I use it to set the colour of my work calendar events too.

Wow thanks that was just the thing I needee
