It's strange, but I want to sync only calendar and contacts with my work account (Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account).
In my old HTC Wildfire, under Settings-Account, I was able to choose what items I want to sync: calendar, contacts and/or email.
But with my new SGSII I can only choose calendar, contacts and task.
I can't tick or untick the email mark, it isn't.
It works well, syncing my email, but I don't know how to deactivate email sync and go on with calendar and contacts sync.
Does anybody know how to do this, is the diference the android version ? (if the cause is the version, what about ICS ?
Thanks a lot.
Anybody ?

I have an Exchange account setup on my phone (running Project-V).
Is there some way to prevent it from syncing email? I only want the calendar to sync, but I can't find an option to disable email syncing.
I just got my View and set it up similiar to my Evo Shift with three email accounts..two exchange and one gmail. On the Shift I was able to select which Google components to sync (mail, contacts, calendar). Since I have almost 1000 contacts in one Exchange account I want that to be the only one I sync. I only use Google as a backup for contacts and don't use the calandra. I only need to sync mail. It appears that the View doesn't give me a option to select or unselect which Google components I want to sync and automatically sync'd the Google Contacts and mail and calendar. What did I miss? Anyone else notice this?
Root and delete the google contact sync adaptor apk (I think that's the name...it's been a while since I deleted it). You can also delete the google calendar sync adaptor apk and that will remove the sync options.

The instructions above give you the server settings to just set gmail up as an IMAP server in an email client. I am not sure how exactly it works on the view, but you should be able to set up these server settings manually in the mail client.

Hi all! I'm considering getting the Galaxy S III. It will be my first Android phone. I'm coming from an HTC HD2 (non-Android ROM's). I have some questions regarding how well the S III works with a Microsoft Exchange Server.
Contacts
1. Assuming I have no contacts on the phone, when I input my Exchange credentials and sync, will this populate the Contacts on the S III?
2. If I have multiple Exchange accounts, can I choose to sync contacts on one account but not the other?
Mail
3. If I have multiple Exchange accounts and a Gmail account, are all of these in one Inbox or do you have to go to different screens/apps to access the different accounts?
4. Does syncing of mail work instantaneously, i.e. if I read/delete an e-mail on my PC, will it immediately reflect on the phone?
5. Do you get "push" e-mail?
Calendar
6. Can the phone handle multiple exchange calendars and a gmail calendar?
Tasks
7. Are tasks and syncing of tasks supported?
Thanks,
Bump. Anyone?

1. Your contacts sync as long as you check the option off.
2. I only have one exchange account so I dont know the answer on this.
3. I have my gmail account set up using the gmail app so I don't know this.
4. Immediately as long as you have pushed enabled.
5. Yes, as long as you enable it.
6. It can handle my one exchange calendar and gmail calendar so I believe so.
7. Yes.
so i screwed up and got a windows 8 machine (sony tap20) anyhow its past end of life for google sync but i need to sync outlook calendar with my google calendar, prefer ota like it used to be
help!
Set up a new Mail account using the Windows 8 mail client and select Other, not Gmail. Use m.google.com for the server. After it connects and syncs, go into (charm bar) Settings for that account. You should see the options checked to sync mail, contacts, and calendar. One restriction is it will only sync you main calendar, it will not sync multiple calendars.
