I am using the S Planner and have recently upgraded to 4.1.1 Earlier on ICS when I used to enter the Add Event full settings (on the quick add event it never came though) anyway I used to add an event and the default 5 Mins Notification Reminder used to place itself in the Event on my Calendar.. However Since the upgrade I need to manually click on the + sign next to the reminder.. Why is this so? Is there a work around? I am using the local 'My Calendar' calendar in the S Planner.. I have synced it to my email calendar as well but I have almost no calendar entries on my email.. Just a few work related ones..
Is there anyway for it to automatically add a 5 mins before notification reminder on all the events I create in the local My Calendar in the S Planner? It is quite a pain as I seem to be missing calendar entries since I forgot to add the reminder manually..
Please Help me out! Thanks in Advance!
It is so sad to see nobody is bothered with this problem, because this guy's post is unanswered for almost a month. Is nobody using reminders? I just don't understand. Dumbest stupid failure of the new firmware which urges you to seek for calendar replacement app.
Ok enough emotions. I am also suffering from this. Searched here and there all over. Nobody cares. Nobody even seem to notice this perfect calendar upgrade.
Does it make sence to write to Samsung?

Posted this issue even earlier in another thread. Same no reaction. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33900623&postcount=2112
Haha I gave up on the Stock rom and have since moved onto Cyanogen Mod 10.. I don't have NFC, WIFI Direct, Micro SD Card recognition, or any of the motion features from Samsung like Swipe to Capture a screenshot or Direct call from Contact/Message but I have 4.1.2 and a smoother phone and a slightly better battery life.. I am thinking of selling the S3 and buying the Nexus 4! Since the Jellybean upgrade was absolutely rubbish on the S3!
Why on earth this all is so so sad? Why do we need to deal with such shameful faults of the OS of one of the most expensive smartphones in 21st century. The level of this bug or problem reminds me of Windows 3.1 times...
Almost one month later and no solution to this. Such a simple thing to fix but a very annoying bug to deal with. I will be finding a different calendar.
actually I have been ask this question long time ago

use google calendar
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...xLDEsImNvbS5nb29nbGUuYW5kcm9pZC5jYWxlbmRhciJd
I found a different solution to this! But it will only apply if you use your email address as your default calendar and don't use the local "My Calendar".. Go to your Calendar settings in your Web browser and activate the default reminder time to whatever you want.. Also ensure on your phone that your Calendar is set to Sync with your gmail account on which your calendar entries exist.. Automatically the default reminder time gets placed into your newly set calendar entry without you manually having to do so..
I read what I wrote and its probably a bit confusing but ill be glad to help anyone out if they haven't quite understood! Also sorry I couldn't explain better as I am in a bit of a rush now..
I tried this, but it didn't seem to make any difference on my phone. Any time I make an appointment on my phone it still defaults to no reminder.

Are you sure when you add an Event/Task it shows your gmail address? rather than "My Calendar"?
In addition to that.. You could also go into your settings in the S Planner and then the option Calendars and un-select "My Calendar" and all other calendars you are not using except the one synced with gmail..

Hey Guys,
I currently have 2 email account set up in HTC mail on my Hero, One of them, my University one, updates fine and I see all new email. The other, my personal email one, works fine when first added for a day or so, then although the updates complete and show a completion time in the upper left corner, it fails to see new emails that are in the account which my PC mail client can see.
A manual update also has no effect. If I remove and re-add the account again it works fine again for about a day before just stopping again.
I've tried with no security, SSL, TLS as as many different settings as I can thing of but it still appears to stop after about a day.
I'm a bit at a loss as to why it only happens on one account though.
I was wondering if anyone else has see this behaviour at or and perhaps has a solution?
I am experiencing this also! I didn't try to remove and re-add like you did.
But Im definitely not getting any notifications for that account - was thinking I was the only one...
Double post sorry.

Are you just not getting notifications or do new emails also just not appear in the mail list even with a manual refresh as well?
I've just removed it and re-added it again for one last test, glad I'm not hte only one who appears to have this problem.
Hey Guys
Just joined the android bunch when the wife got me a new Xperia X10 for my b'day/anniversary. Its awesome and i'am loving every bit of it especially the personalization part of it.
However coming from the iPhone I have a few queries and would be great if someone could help me with it. Have searched the forums and haven't really got any useful info of it (mind you i could have terrible searching skill, btw did anyone see my keys??)
I have two mail id's like most people. One is my personal gmail id and the other is my corporate mail id. I have configured them both onto my phone and I'am indeed recieving all mails without a glitch. Unfortunately I don't have an option of sorts to configure my office calendar to sync with the native app. The calendar option does not exist for the second mail option(The option to sync my personal gmail calendar exists and is working fine).
However while using the iphone3g previously I was able to simultaneously use both the calendars (gmail & corporate) and an update on either of the two calendars from my desktop would show on the calendar.
Question1
Is it possible to have a similar system on the android as well. The backend for my corporate mail is provided by gmail and so is the calendar and everything in it. Someone suggested elsewhere that i could share the calendar to my personal mail and i could use it that way. Unfortunately it not enabled for me and the only option for sharing lets my personal account to see if I'm free or engaged at any time. This would be of very limited use to me.
Question 2
Whenever i receive a mail with a calendar invite on the corporate id, the mail appears empty with a small attachment. Using the preview option on the mail app displays text based data that pretty much random stuff overlaid on the meeting name etc(i guess this is the program info or something). Is there anyway if and when i receive an invite i would be able to add them to my calendar or refuse it right-away etc..
These two queries are the biggest of my worries as of now on the otherwise enjoyable experience. I'm terrible sorry for the long post but thought I'd give as much info as possible.
Thanks for your time and help!!
Cheers!!
PS: Some background info, Phone: Xperia X10i, Firmware 2.1-Update1(India), unrooted, baseband 2.1.54. If there is any other app that would help me do the same(Paid or Free), it would be awesome.
Hi there,
I use my phone in a similar way, I have 4 accounts in my gmail app. 3 corporate and 1 personal. If I can remember back to 2.1 (eclair) you can only have 1 gmail account in that app. Then you have to use the mail app for up to 5 more (not sure about moxier mail, I never used it).
Basically what your best doing is rooting the phone to get it up to 2.2 (froyo) that way use have much more control over what sync's from each account. I would recommend tripnraver's froyo. He has a new 1.2.0 coming tonight. You do have to put up with some minor bugs, but the benefits far out weigh the negatives.
A lot also depends on what type of email accounts they are. Either way froyo is way better for your needs.
If you don't wish to dabble with your new present, wait a few months when sony bring out 2.3.4 gingerbread!
I have had a few close shaves, while flashing my phone but approx 10 roms later, I'm pretty sure it's hard to brick it. Worst case restore it back using the sony software.
Hope that helps.

Tried to search if everyone was aware of this problem. Don't see any references, so posting in hopes it would help others.
If you just flashed one of the awesome ICS ROMs out there and getting constant FC with the error "Google Calendar Sync Has Stopped", you may be experiencing what I have. Note: This doesn't seem to affect all ICS ROMs as I didnt have this issue with Seraphim, but I'm on Objection right now and this is exactly what is going on with my Calendar.
I've been troubleshooting, installing/uninstalling system apks, finding workarounds and have had no luck figuring this one out. At first I thought it was just an exchange issue (another problem i wont get into). But after searching the web it looks to be a known issue with "Recurring Event" and the ICS sync engine. Because I had problems with Exchange Sync on my device, I ended up syncing my Exchange Calendar with Google using a third party app (gSyncit), so I have multiple recurring meetings in my Google Calendar.
Here is an excerpt from 'ISTAR' in a google groups thread:
"The problem appears when you have eventfull calendars, with repeating events. It looks like not all of them are able to be processed with Android sync daemon. Here is the threat discussing that issue: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=23175 Depending from your calendar there could be 1 or more events bothering that app. So you have to identify them and recreate it or if you got unlucky: refrain from using such pattern.
The easiest way to identify the wrecker is 1) to install log reading app, e.g. aLogcat from Market, 2) Go Setting->Accounts->Google->UnCheck/Check Calendar wait for the error "google calendar sync has stopped" 3) run to aLogcat, pause and scroll to the red lines, saying something like "error in recurring pattern =MO TU WE, etc." The error text can vary depending from the nature of your problem. 4) Try to identify which one is bad event and remove it from all calendars. 5) Resync and go to step 1 if error appears again. After 2-3 iteration you should vanish all your malicious events.
And I don't think google will fix it fast. The problem is being known since December 11, and still in progress.
Good luck!"
I confirmed this by following his steps and removed all my recurring events one-by-one until Calendar synced successfully without the FC.
Since I haven't been able to get Exchange sync or Google Calendar Sync to work with my work email. I've resorted to using Touchdown as the solution, until this is fixed or until I find a better workaround.
Hopefully someone finds this helpful, or can provide me with a solution.
No issues with calendar sync on that Rom here....recurring events and new events sync fine.
Which version of the Rom are you using
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
im on the newest objection 2. seems that this is only affecting a handful of people (only two others on the dev thread has mentioned it). it could possibly be a way that google calendar saves exchange items in its database and unable to process it on the device. dont know. frustrating. ive also tried taking the seraphim calendar apk and dropping it in with no luck. so im stumped.
this is the only issue from making my device perfect with objection which i think is the cleanest cooked up rom
It definitely could be an exchange issue.
I do not use exchange so have no way of testing
There's an app for it
I had this issue after updating my Galaxy Note to ICS 4.0.3. Calendar sync caused forced close and no data was synced. Bought an app called CalenGoo for less than EUR5 after confirming with the very helpful dev that it is not reliant on the defective ICS sync engine. Got everything up and running in seconds!
Deleting recurring events (weekly meetings with colleagues etc) is simply not something anyone who uses their Google calendar for anything serious is going to do. And again no guarantee that adding the meetings again would not just cause the same problem. Rather buy a phone that works.
Also tried deleting my corporate google account from the phone and re-adding it (my personal account synced just fine). Not intrigued to factory reset the phone and restore all apps and lose their settings etc. while there is no guarantee that it would do any good.
It is ridiculous that Google/Samsung would release this kind of defective crap, and makes you think what else might be wrong with ICS if QA is this bad.
Fixed my issue!
Hi,
Thanks for sharing this information!
I use gSyncIt to sync from Outlook to Google, then Google Calendar Sync to sync from Google to an Asus Transformer TF101. It worked fine until I upgraded from Honeycomb to ICS and my main calendar failed to sync from that point on, with the dreaded "Sorry" message.
I followed the tips in the first post and discovered I had only one problematic recurring calendar entry. It used this Outlook pattern:
Weekly repeat, Mondays to Fridays only, started July 16, finished August 10
When I deleted it the sync worked OK. When I recreated it using this:
Daily repeat, weekdays only, started July 16, finished August 10it still didn't work. Mind you gSyncIt could be representing both of these patterns the same way in Google Calendar.
In the end I recreated the repeating calendar entry as 4 separate week long repeating events and it synced fine to Google and through to ICS.
So if you are running into this bug my suggestion would be to check for any daily recurring events that run longer than a week but exclude some days of the week (especially weekends). I have lots of other daily, weekly and monthly recurring events but this is the only one that had that pattern (and the only one that killed the syncing process).
Thanks,
Matt
OP - thanks for the info, been experiencing this since I've upgraded my Galaxy Note to ICS.
One thing to add upon the info on this thread -- it seems to me that when accessing, via the Google Calendar website, the events that cause the crashes, they seem to show a message "This event has a recurrence rule that cannot be edited in Google Calendar" next to the "Repeat:" checkbox of the event.
This might be easier to detect for you than searching the logs. Of course, you still have to go over all of your reoccurring events to find the offending ones.

thanks for showing a way out.. fishing for those offending entries...
Simple mistake maybe
Hi folks I thought I had this same problem as well but found out there was a simple solution. If the duplicate events have a different colour tab on the lefthand side it means they are coming from different calendar feeds and to stop this happening I just clicked on the drop down menu next to 'Calendar' top left of screen and unchecked everything apart from my Gmail email address & UK Holidays.
After that everything went back to normal ... simple mistake or just me?

There was one offending monthly reminder about my Evernote subscription, deleted the series, sync working now. Happy!
I have only Google Calendar (3 agendas thouhg - personal, professional, birthdays) and after I upgraded my Defy to ICS (Nightly build of 2012.05.29, Kernel CM9) I cannot sync Calendar anymore. Try out different Gapps, always cleaning/wiping cache/dalvik, but nothing seems to solve the problem. Not sure what else I could try. Has anyone find a solution/workaround?
My understanding is that this is a known issue, I'm looking for a workaround or resolution.
Using KitKat, and the standard AOSP email client, I setup my corporate email account in the usual way. Everything works the way it is supposed to except for syncing contacts.
Normally I have fewer than 100 contacts, but with KitKat I end up with over 600. From my research into this issue it is because KitKat is syncing the "suggested contacts" from exchange, not just the contacts listed in my address book. I'm not sure who made the decision to do that, but it doesn't sound like the best idea to me.
I see this problem on my tablet which is running the CM 11.0 nightlies, but I do not see it on my HTC One running AndroidNow, even though Android Now is at 4.4. That is what tells me that the problem is in Exchange Services for the standard AOSP client. I confirmed this by finding this site:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...4-4-with-gmail-style-ui-and-a-slide-out-menu/
I downloaded the appropriate files and installed the apks on my HTC One. When I setup my corporate email there I started seeing the same issue.
Does anyone have any news or recommendations on this issue? By the way, I'm not looking for "install such-and-such email client, it's better" type recommendations. I've tried the majority of them already.
Thanks
It is interesting to me that no one has anything to say on this issue. Perhaps no one saw my post?
At any rate, I found a "solution" which is clumsy but seems to do the trick. The suggestion I found in the google forums was to delete the "Suggested Contacts" folder (I did it in the Exchange web mail app), delete the Corporate account and recreate. I did and I now have the correct number of contacts.
From what I have found this problem is caused by code added to KitKat for syncing sub-folders. It is an issue that Google is aware of, but has marked at a very low priority. I assume that means that a real fix for this will be a long time coming.

In case you may not have noticed, there is a open issue for this now:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=61979
Im having the same problem with you, but removing the "suggested contacts" folder from Outlook didn't work (not that I should have to do that). It was if the contacts were cached to the phone.... even after removing the account. I even tried disabling sync, putting it in airplane mode, and using "Contact Remover" from the Play Store to delete the contacts from my phone (disabling sync and airplane mode to prevent a total deletion of all contacts on next sync). After that, I removed the account from Android, removed all phone pairings from Exchange (through OWA), and cleared the cache of the phone. As soon as I resynced, they all came back.
I'm beyond pissed. I literally have 5,000 contacts, and I can barely open the People applet. This is ridiculous.

I can't argue with your assessment, especially since it is a known issue that is, apparently, not getting any attention from Google. That is disappointing.

I have this same problem, but it seems to be Exchange email address history (start a new email: start typing address and the autocomplete list appears)that is causing the problem for me. If I delete the history the contact is now longer shown in my contact list. The problem is this history list is ever growing and changing. It seems we are forced to live with excess users until Google gets this fixed.

Ahhh, well that would make sense why deleting the "suggested contacts" folder doesn't fix it. I don't want to flush my autocomplete history. It's quite useful.
In the interim, I'm just 'pushing' my contacts from Touchdown using the "Copy to Phone" option, and not adding the corporate email option for now.
Here is a pretty nice work around to this issue.
Go into outlook and create a new category for all of the contacts you want to sync with your device. Once the contacts are part of the new category, go to your device and in the contacts>>accounts to display>>select the corporate account>> and select which list(select the category you created in outlook>> thats it and resync your contacts.

Agreed, a true fix is still needed. The biggest problem with this solution is making sure you put new contacts into the new category when they are being added.
I have the issue that my phone will not sync to the exchange contacts PERIOD.
It downloaded them fine apparently, but any changes made on the device do not get updated on the server.
WTF? How ****ing stupid is google to break activesync!?
I'm not just having problems with contacts... my entire calendar will not sync. I basically get no meeting reminders. I can log into exchange webmail and check my calendar there, but that is ridiculous.
As for the contacts, none of the tips and tricks in this thread have helped. I have completely deleted "suggested contacts" (which is a shame, because it was actually useful), but my phone is still pulling them from somewhere....
The only thing that works for me is installing Touchdown and using it to sync, then push the contacts to the phone. It does pick up the bullshvt ones...

I can't understand why it cannot be fixed. I don't even fully understand the problem, as I've gone through Outlook/Exchange multiple times cleaning out the "suggested contacts" and still had my phone's contact list spammed with every email address that is and ever was.
It took a long, long time... but I used "Contact Remover" from the Play store and just went down the list checking contacts I wanted to delete. It's much faster than going into each contact, hitting menu, then hitting delete. Still, you have to be careful not to delete contacts you want to keep. Many times, they're named exactly the same as the spam ones.
On a side note, I am struggling to understand why there are so many contacts that have been "augmented" by apps such as Facebook and Lync 2013. I never choose to sync those, but it appears to have done so anyway.
same problem here, contacts on phone (nexus 5) are filled with rubbish now
Hello Everyone!
I have a problem with the Email app since Lollipop update .232 Europe CE1. I have many e-mail addresses, like private and company and other. I added 2 of my email addresses with IMAP and now I cannot add more, because if I want to do it, after the last step it says "Account not found. I might have been deleted.". I get this message with IMAP and with Exchange too (@live.com address). Does anyone have a solution for this? Or I'm the only one with this really annoying problem?
Thanks in advance
Well, it seems I'm the only one having this issue
Great! Maybe .264 update will solve this problem ...
Próbáld meg eltávolítani az összes e-mail fiókot és újra add hozzá. Ha ez sem működik akkor próbáld meg a Gmail alkalmazással, azzal hátha fog
Flashed .264, problem exists, so I give up. Waiting for my company phone next year and then I'll use my company emails on it.

I started having this problem but only after the e-mail app update that sony did recently. exactly the same "Account not found. It might have been deleted." error as you. I've seen similar reports on rom threads too, can't remember where exactly so you're not alone.
Anyway the good news is that i've always managed to get my 4 accounts working (2 gmail / 1 pop / 1 exchange) after trying to add them a bunch of times they finally stick (sometimes 10 tries sometimes more like 50 lol ... i'm really persistant xD )

Hello,
got the same issue. Just deleted my Exchange Account cause I've had some syncing issues. Now I'm getting this message, when I try to create the account on my phone again.
My other email accoutns are working perfect.
Haven't found anything about this issue on the www.
I'm on Customized DE 23.4.A.1.264
You got any idea right now how to solve it?
Greets,

I have no idea about this weird issue. Everything was flawless on 5.0.2, but since then the Email app is just a crap ... I'm on .264 too, but problem still exists. Maybe on Marshmallow ...
Hello,
Yesterday I found a solution for me.
First I made a Backup of my current configuration.
After that I deactivated every app that has to do with mail service.
Like exchange, email, kalender, etc. Also cleared all the data. Then I deactivated the auto sync service.
Now I restarted the mobile. Now activate all the apps again except exchange 5.*
After that I added my mail exchange account with success. Now just activate exchange 5 and auto sync. Get back the other mail accounts with the backup made before.
Right now everything is working for me.
Full wipe wasn't an option for me cause my mobile is encrypted.

I also got this "account not found. it might have been deleted" error.
story:
I rooted following this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...ck-d6502-03-23-4-0-546-completeguide-t3171219
Did not try the Email app while briefly on 23.4.a.0.546. I am now on 23.4.a.1.200.
I came from 5.1.1, 23.4.a.1.232, D6503 where I backed up several app installs (apk). I happened to also backup the Email-app.
my solution:
I started the Email apk to see what version it was compared to the one I was running.
The same (8.1). I installed it over the existing install anyway to see what would happen.
I had one mail account added at this point.
NOW I could add another mail account!
BUT! When trying to add a second one, the error was back. So I installed the app again and I was able to add another mail account.
This was repeatable. I did this three times.
Thought: It MIGHT work to just reinstall the app you are already running if you get the apk. In my case the versions appeared to be the same.
I did not try to uninstall the Email app completely and then try to add accounts from "scratch".
Strange error with a strange "solution"; or work-around.
Edit: I did not try to add accounts until after I had removed a ton of Sony and Google crapware (my main reason for rooting).
So I dont know if the error is related to app removal.

I came from 5.1.1, 23.4.a.1.232, D6503 where I backed up several app installs (apk). I happened to also backup the Email-app.
my solution:
I started the Email apk to see what version it was compared to the one I was running.
The same (8.1). I installed it over the existing install anyway to see what would happen.
I had one mail account added at this point.
NOW I could add another mail account!
BUT! When trying to add a second one, the error was back. So I installed the app again and I was able to add another mail account.
This was repeatable. I did this three times.
Thought: It MIGHT work to just reinstall the app you are already running if you get the apk. In my case the versions appeared to be the same.
I did not try to uninstall the Email app completely and then try to add accounts from "scratch".
Strange error with a strange "solution"; or work-around.
Edit: I did not try to add accounts until after I had removed a ton of Sony and Google crapware (my main reason for rooting).
So I dont know if the error is related to app removal.

Hello,
My phone isn't rooted and so I'm not able to uninstall pre-installed apps.
I hope this bug will be fixed on the next update...
SOLVED: Pause the Auto-Sync in Settings>Accounts
Good day to all! I stumbled across the solution (at least for me on my Z3c) by speed reading through all the previous replies and noting what seemed to pop out. Basically with auto-sync still activated the email app can't sync, delete, add, etc (decide) what it should do first. So, within Settings>Accounts tap the top right 3 dots and disable (uncheck) the auto-sync feature. Return to the email app (or I suppose calendar or any app causing a similar issue) and add the account. Once all accounts are added to the app, return to Settings>Accounts to re-enable auto-sync and all works (Finally!). Cheers!

Had the same problem on my Z1 and it worked!!!
Thanks
Problem still not solved October 2016
I have the same problem with Xperia Z1 compact, Lollipop 5.1.1. I have two accounts but can not add the third, same message. Tried re-setting, clearing cache, didn't help. Autosync was already unchecked.
Seems to be a Sony problem, haven't seen anything on www about other vendors.
Any solutions other than rooting the phone or third party apps?
Thanks!
PS Sony has marked their threads as "solved" while it definetely is not. Little white lies.
