[Q] Cyanogenmod CM9 Profile help - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
I am using the latest nightly (update everyday-ish) and I'm having a problem with the profiles settings.
I have set up a "work" profile, and because I am at my PC at work, I have set all email notifications (exchange, gmail and hotmail) to off so that I don't receive duplicate notifications (phone and PC).
However they are still showing up on my phone with work selected.
Any ideas? Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks
[apologies if this is the wrong forum, would a MOD please move if that's the case?]

Nobody know? It is a bit random I suppose...!

Have you found a solution for this? I am noticing the same behavior the google talk app. (CM9 stable)

I think it may be because certain apps own sync settings override the phones sync settings: so far found no solution

Turn off built in calendar notification

Hi,
After installed Jorte on my X10 mini I receiving every calendar notification two times. Is it possible turn off notification from built in calendar?
Best wishes
ArekS
I don't get a notification from jorte, don't find the setting :-/
but I got several notifications from the default calender, every time again if the calendar and calendar.bridge app is closed by android duo memory reasons (and if the event is still running).
This ****s me up
anyone else with this software bug?

I get multiple reminders as well, and i don't know how to change it.. extremely annoying!
I don't have a clue how to go about fixing it either.
Did anyone find a fix for this?
I use all day events (like birthdays or anniversary) and that notification will not go away it keeps coming back each time the notification is cleared and I can't figure out the setting that makes it stop (other than deleting the event?)

same problem for me
Same here, had that problem on 1.6 and it hasn't gotten any better using 2.1
Drives me nuts.

Same here, plus the Sony Ericsson Calendar app sucks.
Why can't we have the default Google one? It's much better!
For viewing and adding events you should try TouchCalendar, it provides a great overview. Unfortunately editing and viewing details of events doesn't work on Mini Pros.

DO anyone of you guys know if Jorte update directly from google or from the SE calendar and will there be any problems if you remove the installed calendar.
"Unfortunately editing and viewing details of events doesn't work on Mini Pros."
This problem is solved in the new vision 0.9.11 But I get double notifications is there a way to solve this?

This thread explains how to remove the stock calendar, which would almost definitely solve your double notifications dilemma.. maybe a bit extreme though!

If you remove default calendar Jorte won´t be able to sync with Google.
I've been using my mini pro for a few weeks now and I too have noticed the weird behaviour with the calendar reminders (i am using Jorte too).
What's the correct procedure for dismissing a reminder? I don't really know if i've just been snoozing them.
I pull down the notification bar and tap on the reminder there and it opens the event in the standard calendar app; does this actually dismiss the reminder?

[Q] Contacts saved on phone are deleted

Hello everybody,
first I want to thank you for all the great instructions and FAQs, they really helped a lot.
However, I finally bought myself an Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100 and flashed it yesterday with the Resurrection 1.8.1 ICS ROM (which is really amazing). But I am experiencing an issue for which I couldn't find a solution.
After synchronizing the S2 via MPE with Outlook, and saving the contacts only on the phone they disappear after a while. But not the contacts which are linked to an online account (Facebook etc).
I think this issue was also raised in [Rom](M5)[Pitch Black](tabletUİ)[AOKP-B35][04/05]Resurrection Remix ics v1.8.1[4.0.4] (page 2546):

And i got battery draining.
Thanks a lot ...
Amazing rom. I like Resurrection Remix.
After no help and still problem with loosing contacts I moved to "CriskeloServanTEAM-V8-LP7" and now all is OK.
Please can you fix this bug?

Does anyone now what I could do without having to sync the contacts with Google.
Thank you for your help.
Have you checked to see which contacts are selected to be displayed.

Thanks for the quick reply.
All of the contacts are displayed, because I did not sync it with Google.

I think he meant when you go to the Contacts app, then open menu > more > display options, you can choose various options here. Under the "select contacts to display" heading, if under phone, nothing is checked, then it will not display any local phone contacts. See if they are all un-checked here.
EDIT: Oh, you're on Resurrection Remix, which is an ICS ROM. Could be slightly different for you. But the idea is the same.

Your are right if I uncheck everything no contacts are seen.
But if I want to view the contacts I saved on the phone (phone-only, unsynced contact), I have to show "All contacts", but after some time these contacts disappeared.

I disabled all synchronization except Google calendar, then I also disabled the synchronisation with Contact-sync.
But still the contacts are deleted. The only contacts which are left are either synced with HaxSync or Whatsapp.
Does it mean I cannot leave any contacts which are not synced with something?
It should be possible to leave some contacts on the phone itself?!

That's very weird. I can save a new contact that is "phone only" and it displays just fine, and is never synched to my Google account. (though, I really don't understand why people don't like synching to Google. It's like automatically backing up your Contacts online. What's not to like?)
Can you post some screenshots maybe of your display settings with all the settings expanded?
Just save all contacts to SIM memory, not in Phone memory.

I was talking about display settings from your contacts app, like I was suggesting in post 4.
For me, (I'm on GB still) I open contacts, menu, more, display options, and expand out phone. I have everything checked here.
I don't know what it looks like on ICS, as I'm not on ICS... but if I can see screenshots of a similar screen, I may be able to help you. You may not have that set of contacts set to display.
EDIT: I got a hold of a work colleague's i9100 who has ICS installed on it, and found the menu steps...
Ok, so on ICS, it's a bit different. From the Contacts app, hit menu, contacts to display, customize, then expand out phone. Are all the checkboxes here checked?

If I check all of them I have ca 150contacts, but after I have synced it with MPE I usually have over 500.
After some time (or a sync with an account I guess) the contacts decline only to the contacts which are synced with an account.
Currently, I have one possible solutions in mind which is however not satisfying for me:
1. Syncing all contacts with Google.

If I click on "Contacts to display" the options of the first Screenshot show up. So there is no "Phone" option
I just created a new contact which is then included in the googlemail account and then shown as "phone" and other shown as "connections".
Hope that is what you ment.

It's not what I meant... it's really strange; on my co-worker's phone, on the screen of your first screenshot, he has Phone and SIM displayed, in addition to his Google account... but you do not have either. (So krasavchik's suggestion above wouldn't work either...)
What ROM are you running? Is it a custom ROM, or are you on a Samsung stock firmware?

Hmm... so it sounds like it is an issue specifically with this ROM. You may want to inquire in the ROM thread to see if anyone else using this ROM is able to get "Phone" or "SIM" contacts to show up in the contacts app.

[Solved] Contacts Syncing Problem (i.e. No contacts visible) ASUS PadFone 2

Hello all,
I've searched the forum, but posts either have not been answered or the solutions are not helping.
The issue here is that when I turn on the device, go to contacts and they are all there. After some time, may be 5-10 mins, someone calls me or texts or I go to contacts myself, there are no names stored, except for the device owner (me).
What I have tried to do:
- restart the device to see contacts (yes, that helps, but I don't want to restart my device everytime I want to make a call or receive a text message)
- from settings>applications>all tab>contacts => close application and clear cache buttons (not sure how they are in English), go to contacts app choose account which do I want to sync from, in my case its Google only, press sync contacts and voila, they are there. However, for only a few minutes again. If you repeat syncing without closing program and clearing cache, then it will not help.
- filter - doesn't help. Either Google option has many suboptions but no contacts or Google option is there but no sublists (i.e. all contacts, family, friends etc.)
- all my contacts ARE in Google account, which I can see via google.com/contacts - so this isn't the problem.
- device sometimes doesn't want to sync. it does not say it has not been synced, but I can see that the "Last time" it was synced was when it really synced contacts that I could see them, but not just now.
I do not want to use any "aftermarket" apps to view contacts, as I want my device to be as stock as possible.
The first day I bought PadFone 2 it advised me to upgrade to 4.1.1 Android, which I did, so I don't know whether it did work before.
Hope someone can help.
Sincerely,
Problem solved:
Uninstall your whatsapp messenger and the problem should be resolved on your padfone 2.
The problem is the conflict of address books of your native contacts app and of whatsapp contacts. They seem to be stored in the same directory.

There are also something else that causes problem. It happens to me again and I'm not sure what it is. Maybe Friendcaster or BuddyBuzz.

Not sure, as i do not have accounts assigned to these apps. Try removing your account info from buddybuz, then friendcaster. I dont think its buddybuzs problem, as it is a native app.

Uninstalled Whatsapp..still not working
Hey guys, I have uninstalled my Whatsapp, but it seems like the problem is still not solved. Have you guys had any luck with getting your contacts to work after uninstalling Whtasapp?
Perhaps its because I downloaded Kakao talk? it sucks anyways, because I am in a distance relationship (different countries) and we need to be able to keep contact either through Whatsapp or similar apps... if this will be a problem, then we will have a problem.
are you guys sure that this doesnt have anything to do with android it self?
Same for me here!!

Yes, this still continues to haunt my Padfone2! I´ve uninstalled WhatsApp Messenger and Everything worked nicely for about 10 minutes an then the error showd up again, this time with "FC" of Contacts.
I also have some other applications that tries to put in data in my Contacts and its:
- LinkedIn
- FB
- Skype
And I Think all of them ask "you" to sync with your Contacts - it might be some of those as well? I´ll have a go and uninstall them and then see what happends.
// Zeb
What I finally did was that I did a factory reset on the Padfone 2 and then started with installing WhatsApp first together with FB, Linkedin and Twitter (did not let FB, Linkedn and Twitter sync with my Contacts).
Then I connected to my Exchange 2010 at work and then finally everything was working smooth again.

How do you prevent you phone from syncing with FB ?
Same problem here and I don't use WhatsApp, FaceBook, Linkedin, Twitter or any other similar apps for that matter. I also have problem with contacts gets duplicated and the alphabetic order does not work at all.
I have now inactivated Google contacts and only store my contacts on the device and they seems to stay put now but the sorting and duplicating problem remains.
Something has to be done about this since this make the phone not very much of a phone...

Under "Accounts" in settings, there you can find your account for "Facebook". Click it and then untick the sychronize with Contacts.

Same problem, my solution
My Padfone 2 is now more than a half year old.
It keeps doing this "contact deleting thing" once a month!My Padfone 2 is now more than a half year old.
It keeps doing this "contact deleting thing" once a month!
My solution though is that go to contacts. Show contacts, uncheck FB, Twitter, Exchange mails. Everything except my Google Contacts.
I have all my Contact there.
After that I restart my phone,I do a complete Google Sync. Waiting for 5 minuts. And then all my contacts are back to normal.
But this is a very annoying habit the Padfone 2 has!
I really hope this will be fixed in a firmware update from ASUS.
This is my present firmware and Android version :
Android 4.1.1
Basebandversion M3.13.31-A68_101034
Touch Firmwareversion 1115991-30303033
sync google accounts
It's been a while since I've been through this, but unfortunately I have a similar problem. My problem is "Google account" in accounts and sync. But I can only select google photos when I click on the sync mark. No selection box for contacts. How can I fix that?
The device has clone s3 and ics 4.0.4 on it. The gapps packages available for this release also do not work. It does not synchronize people in any case. I cleaned the data from the applications, I deleted Accounts.db and reinstalled it.
Finally, I found the following lines for Accounts.xml and added it, but still there is no positive situation. What else can I do? Thank you.
Syncable = "true"> <authority id = "3" account = ".." type = "com.google" authority = "com.android.contacts"
<PeriodicSync period = "86400" />

[Q] Google+ not uploading geotags?

Hey guys. I'm running the latest build of SuperNexus on my I777. Recently I've noticed that Google+ no longer uploads my photo geotags, although the data is there (I can see it in the Gallery app). I checked all my privacy settings and + is set to include the data, but for some reason it doesn't.
Has anyone else had this problem and is there a solution?
Thanks!

Don't know if you checked this, but Google also came up with another clever way of confusing people. Apart from Google+ itself there is a "Google Settings" (Green Button) tab in the apps. It includes settings that override all the other settings such as ads, location, and google+.

[Q] Gmail synchronization working only one way?

Hello.
Since this morning I started to experience a strange issue. It seems like my gmail is synced only one way.
I have Nexus 5 running Cyanogenmod 11 M3, Android 4.4.2.
If there is a new email sent to my gmail account, I get proper notification and I see the mail. I then go and delete that email (or mark it as read). My inbox does not have this email anymore. I refresh the mail, make sure everything is synced. Now if I open web gui of gmail on my computer, I still see that email there unread. If I go back to phone gmail, I don't see that email in my Inbox (or sometimes I do), but I can see it in priority mail box or under "all mail". It seems that whatever change I do on phone client is not properly synced back to server.
The same issue manifests also on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus, running CM 10.2. It does not happen on my very old HTC Desire Z, running CM4.
I have not changed anything, it started to happen this morning. Any change done through computer web client is synced correctly. I have no idea what is going on. Does Gmail service have some issue? Anyone else experiencing it?
Thanks.
I think the first thing to clarify is whether or not you're using the native GMail app or have set up GMail through and alternative e-mail app (i.e.: Enhanced E-mail).
