[Q] syncing calenders - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everybody,
So I recently picked up my first tablet. Since I have the galaxy s3 for AT&T, I decided to get the galaxy tab 2 10.1. Ive had it for a few days and I absolutely love it! Although earlier today I started adding things to the default calender that comes installed on both the tab 2 and my gs3.
My problem is I cant seem to get my events I created on my tab to show up on my gs3. Both devices are using the same gmail account so they should sync just fine right?
I did do some research before posting this, but I didnt find any definite answers.
If someone could maybe shed some light on what the issue may be, that would be awesome!
Thanks in advance!

Check that web sync is enabled on the google account web page.
Also be sure sync is enabled on mobile devices settings as well.
Finally, double check that you are indeed using your Gmail account calendar and NOT the local storage database.

[Q] SGS2 Market Issue!

I sync with 3 gmail accounts on my Galaxy S2 but would only like to use one to access and purchase/download from the android marketplace. The issue is that the market app shows all three under settings>accounts. The first time I open the market I set the account to the one that I want but recently notice that it had automatically switched to another accounts and I had installed a bunch of apps using another account. This morning I it to the desired account and in the evening it had changed again. This is very weird and annoying. Is there a way that I can stop this or disable the marketplace on my other accounts?
BUMP!!! Please help. Someone.
I am also facing the same problem. On top of it, i am getting Connection Timed Out all the time in market. Can someone help please?

I've got the same problem, and so do others: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Android+Market/thread?tid=4dfb99ab11950624&hl=en. I haven't tried it yet, but according to that page, a work-around is to open the market only using the application icon, not from the notification area.
Hey Thanks,
I just went through your link. Guess many ppl r facing the same issue. Hope it gets fixed soon.

E-mails not showing as read using hotmail

Hey all,
I recently upgraded to ICS on my samsung galaxy SII using KIES. Since the update i cannot get the stock e-mail client to show my hotmail e-mails as read on other devices.
For example, when on GB if i read an e-mail on the phone while i was out, and then checked my e-mail on my computer when i got back home. The e-mail would show as read on both devices.
But since ICS the e-mail only shows as read on the phone, is there any way to change the settings so that it works the same as it did on GB?
All other e-mail/calender/contact syncing works correctly as does sending/recieving and deleting e-mails. It is only the read massages that seems to be an issue.
My phone is not rooted and is XEU model running 4.0.3 XLPS.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
I had the same problem using email configured through Samsung sns.
I ended up using the exchange (push) option during setup. Once setup, goto menu / settings / tap your account / scroll down to "in case of conflict......" and change to "....... update to server"
Works for me.

Thank you for your suggestion UpInTheAir, i have tried this on my phone but i am still getting the same results :-( Do you have any other ideas?
I haven't used K9 email from Google Play since Froyo days on the HTC. You could check it out and see if that's working. The only other thing I can come up with is trying another firmware or custom ROM.
Ok, just rechecked myself. Seems to be intermittent!
I had some showing up as thread as well. I increased from 3 days to 1 month sync andlet it reload the app inbox, selected the first unread and refreshed my html email.worked, showing the previous unread message as read. Now I read another unread and or doesn't work. When back to 3 days sync and didn't work.
Bummer, just wonder if this is for just hotmail account or other. Will have to search XDA and Google to see about this bug, surely the question had been asked somewhere before?
Edit : tried a couple of modded email apks but no good.
Tried official Hotmail app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hotmail.Z7
Any changes to inbox seem to work and will show up on the Web inbox within a few minutes. Emptying the trash folder doesn't sync with the server though. Also don't know if it's a battery hog and causes wakelocks etc. yet.

Your problem is soved with root here
OK the answer:
A modded Google ICS email works prefectly.

Might try wanam's hacked LP8 stock email

[Q] ICS Calendar

Hi guys,
I'm currently using the the calendars app of ICS.
My issue is that I would like to sync more than the standard 30 days behind. In the options, there is an option for synching everything, this would not be an issue if it was for calendar, but it seems to apply to my email as well. This is huge. To note, I am synching to my work exchange server.
Is there any current workaround or do I have to live with it? If there is already a soltuion, I apologise as I have searched and cant find it.
I'm rooted on a Galaxian Soup AOSP 4.0.4 ROM on a Galaxy tab 8.9 p7300
THanks in advance for any help

Yahoo Mail on built in email app - Not displaying all folders

Hi all,
I have searched for the answer to this problem all over the net and can't seem to find a solution, so please forgive me if it's glaringly obvious.
I have been trying to configure my yahoo mail (.co.uk) account on the inbuilt email app on the brilliant SGS3 but to no avail. The only folders that show are Inbox, Outbox, Sent and Trash. I have added the account and removed it and tried again prior to rooting and done the same following.
I don't have a Yahoo premium account but have managed to add the account to my work phone (the HTC Sensation running ICS) and I can see all the folders perfectly fine.
Can anyone suggest what I may be doing wrong?
I'm running I9300XXLFB
Thanks in advance
Pete

Got Yahoo configured on stock Email app (yahoo.com, stateside). On my SGS3, f you pull down the folders menu and select "Show all folders," it properly shows all my custom folders.
Already tried that only folders that show when I select 'show all folders' are inbox drafts outbox trash. That's all. When I do the same on the HTC sensation I get all folders.
Makes no sense to me.

you're lucky that you can at least access some folders.
i got my sg3 a few weeks ago and ever since i haven't been able to set-up my yahoo account
i just changed the internet provider, and everything solved. earlier i couldn't access the account at all, but after changing the internet service provider everything is fine
Wow you changed isp to get folders? Seems excessive!
I was just hoping it was a known UK problem or t mobile UK problem.

[Q] Outlook Notes - Galaxy S3

Evening
I'm aware there must be a myriad of similar questions on here but I swear I searched high and low. Honest guv I did
I have a Galaxy S3 and a shedload of Outlook Notes that I would dearly love to have on the phone
I exported them into Google Drive via Outlook Visual Basic
I can sync TO the drive from the phone, but not the other way round
Any suggestions please?
Apologies in advance for the clutter
Not entirely sure what you trying to do here, but try Drop box
Thread moved to proper forum.

I was trying to get S Memo to import my Outlook Notes, and have both DropBox and Google Drive
Transpires this just isn't possible at all, unless anyone knows different!
Used Evernote instead. Still can't synch with S Memo which is annoying, but works just fine
Cool thread bro
