I can't work out why, but stuff added to my google Calendar on my phone, doesn't sync to my online google calendar.
Stuff added online, shows up on my phone's calendar with a red marker when you open the calendar. But stuff added on the phone, doesn't show up online! When you add something using the monthly widget, it shows up with a blue marker, and doesn't seem to upload to google. This is really annoying, and no amount of going in to Data sync settings and forcing synchronisaition seems to fix it. Somewhere, I must have set up something wrong, I assume, but can anyone tell me where..?
OK,
So I 've managed to figure out that there are multiple calendars on the Hero. One must be the google online one, and the other must be the phone one. Both are called "My calendar". I can't find a way of deleting the phone one, or changing its name, or just using the online one as default, but I have gone on to the website and changed the name of the online one to something different. This now means I can identify the differences between them, and put stuff on my online calendar easily from my phone.
But can anyone tell me how I can move appointments between calendars? Or delete the phone only calendar altogether? I have no need for it, if I have an online calendar!!
On mine one is called "my calendar" and the other is my google email login name. Seems like my calendar is local to the phone whereas the "other" is the online calendar which could be shared with others.
Don't know yet how to move between the two or how to delete the local one. Mine always defaults to the online one so I just never change it.

Hello everybody,
I am having the exact same issue on a non-rooted HTC Magic (32A). The problem must have occured because I did not directly sign on my gmail account during the setup wizard, but did that later on.
As a result, a "my calendar" cal was created and was made the phone's default one. Later on, I did sign to gmail and, as a result, obtained access to my google calendars. However, the "my calendar" account remains there and I have not been able to remove it from the list of calendar accounts. To make things worse, selecting to create a new calendar event preselects "my calendar" instead of my own gmail calendar.
Of course I can always return the phone to factory defaults, but that would mean that I'd have to reinstall my applications, do a zillion of tuneups etc etc. Does anyone know of a way to accomplish the same thing? Or a workaround to preselect my own gmail calendar as the default one?
Thanks in advance for any info provided.

EDIT: I am not really sure whether signing directly at the first setup wizard execution avoid the creation of "my calendar" altogether, OR it just creates it but sets the gmail calendar as the default.... Can anyone who has directly provided his/her gmail account during the initial setup wizard, confirm whether:
(a) a local "my calendar" calendar exists (or not) and
(b) which calendar is the default one, when a new calendar event is created

Yes, the local "my calendar" still exists.
When I create a new event, it uses whichever calendar I selected the last time I created an event.
In my case, my google calendar is labelled with my full name, and the HTC one is "my calendar", so it's easy...

I'm on a HTC Magic and no matter which calendar I select during event creation, the next event will again default to "my calendar". Are you on Hero? Other?

I can see the google calendar and I can create events there or view the synced ones. Everything works perfectly there. I just can't make my own Google calendar the default

Calendar still does not sync
In spite of using the option to enter my calendar dates with my google account my Hero still will not upload dates to my google calendar. Google calendar does sync down to my Hero however. Is this something I'm doing wrong or is this a known problem?
works fine for me; the only issue is to ensure you're adding the event to the correct calendar, i.e. the Google one, not an Outlook one, or the local Hero one, with the latter being the default.
after I realised that, it's always worked for me.
yeah still not working. Very odd indeed.
Is it still a problem after installing the new ROM?
For me at least.
HOORAY!
Can confirm the problem - at least for my phone and several other Orange users...
As explained before, for each event you create, the calendar must be set to your google calendar (which you set up on installing the phone for the 1st time, or via settings).
Also, you must ensure that Orange haven't (in their infinite wisdom) set up a under 18 child protection thing on your account, because for some reason this stops the calendar on your Hero uploading data to Google!
I've switched this off and can now add (and delete) data on my Hero which syncs to my Google calendar with ease.
Another solution I have come across.
If you are using HTC ONE-x or similar, this could also be with any phone - your HTC will have it's own calendar + Google has its own as well. I have always used the HTC one, but this time I thought I will give the Google calendar a go. This is when the problems started, as I didnt like the Google Calendar and went back to the HTC, and every event I added on it - even though syncs with the Google calendar on the phone, it does not sync with Gmail online calendar.
So, I then added an event on my phone into the Google Calendar app and it synced. Now I am just coping all the events one by one from HTC calendar to Google. A bit annoying, but at least everything syncs.
Can't even switch the Google Calendar app off, as it deleted all the calendars from both HTC and Google.

ok, i'm not normally one to have trouble with issues such as these, but this is my first android phone (htc evo 3d) and when i first got it on launch date, i manually entered all my contacts from my old phone to my new one. well i recently went through the root process and read that if you had your gmail account as the primary google account, that you wouldnt have to worry about your contacts anymore, after a wipe or changing to a new phone.
well after root i let the phone do all the gmail syncing after enabling it, and my contacts are still not there. i am having trouble getting into an option that will let me view or add or edit contacts from google. i go into accounts and sync, click my google account but all it will let me do is enable or disable the syncing of contacts. can someone give me a brief rundown of exactly how this works? and are my contacts all gone?
It works pretty much the way you described it; once you have the contacts in your phone you sync and they all get saved to your default gmail account. Then when/if you decide to wipe, you run sync again and they'll be uploaded to your phone.
This is what I'd do if I were you;
- Open gmail -> contacts and check if they are actually there.
- If your contacts are there, then maybe you don't have them set to shown in your phone display options under contacts.
thanks for the quick reply. when you say to open gmail, do you mean through the accounts and sync settings menu? or the gmail app? when i go through the accounts and sync, i just get the option of turning the syncing for each category (i.e. contacts, weather, news) on or off, i cant actually go into each one to see what they are comprised of. i feel pretty dumb not being able to figure this out, but i had over 100 peoples numbers and information on my contacts before i wiped and rooted my phone, so i'm willing to accept sounding like a noob in hopes of possibly getting them back.
thanks again in advance.
No problem at all No, I meant open it on your computer (http://www.google.com/contacts) and see if there are any in there.
Regarding display options; I don't know which phone you're using, but you get there by opening Contacts -> Display Options on my LG (http://www.shrani.si/f/30/1s/1KBZD0Ot/screenshot-1314442655693.png a screenshot of how it might look like if it's of any help)
When I bought my HTC Thunderbolt I logged into an existing gmail account that I thought I could change down the line. So, I have found that changing my original gmail account is not as easy as I thought. The problem is that when I go to put in a new event into my calender it does not sync correctly because it is syncing with the first gmail account I put on the phone.
So, before I go erasing this or that file, I want to check with some people who have good wisdom. My phone is rooted, I am on a different ROM and Radio, but everything I read says that you need to do a factory reset. So, here are a few questions I have...
Will a factory reset effect the rooting of my phone?
If it does not, should I just back on my apps up and do a factory reset?
Is there anything else I should know before I attempt a factory reset?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

gmail is directly linked to the primary account on your phone. the one you went through the initial setup with(setup market with). and unfortunately you cannot remove that email from gmail.
you can ofcourse add accounts via "accounts & sync", but that's a different story.
christ eh?... tell him/her I said salam.
I don't have any issues with erasing or not erasing the email. In fact, I don't really care if it stays on there or not. When I put a new event into my calendar it is using the email I signed up with. So yes, I could sync multiple accounts, but my laptop, tablet, home computure, work computer are all on one account. I like it this way.
When I look in my "accounts and sync" it says that it is using the proper account, but when I select a event in the calendar it wants to sync with google email I sign up with on my phone. I don't want it to use this account. I want to use the same one my google mail.
I am thinking that if I back up all my apps and data using Titanium Backup, do a factory reset, then add my google email so that my calendar syncs with the proper email I should be set. I can always bring my apps back using Titanium Backup and if all fails the worst that could happen is that I go back to my original setting using Titanium Backup.
Am I wrong in thinking this way?
Ryon
So, the gmail account you started your phone with... 1. Did you purchase apps on the market with it? And 2. Do you still want to use it at all on your phone? If you answered "no" to both these questions, do this:
On your computer, log in to the gmail acct you don't want. Export a back up of all your contacts. Now, log out and log into the gmail acct you 'do' want and import your contacts into it. It will not wipe any existing contacts.
Now. On your phone, delete the Google acct you don't want. Sync the one you do want (calendar, contacts, etc). You will have sync'ed all your contacts, email, and calendar. Make sure its all there.
If you answered "yes" to either question above, also do this... Once you're sure your phone has integrated your new main acct, add the old one back. Uncheck the boxes for synching contacts and calendar plus anything else you don't want to sync.

Oops... It is important to know, 4g phones are not linked to your Verizon service the same way 3g/non-sim card phones are. In fact, if you were to reset your phone and not sign into a Google acct at all, you would still have service after set up is complete. This is because your service is now linked to the sim card on your phone. Granted, you won't have contacts, but you could make a call or browse the internet...

I seem to have deleted my Google calender (or some part of it) from my android (specs below). I can’t seem to be able to restore it.
I had problems syncing a new calender and was trying to clear all cache etc in order to get it to sync. I went into Settings --> applications --> All --> ‘Calendar’ (I’ve always had two of those, so I took the one with data in it, the other always stands on 0.0B).
I cleared the data, force stopped it and then I pushed Disable. The button went from disable to enable and I restarted my phone thinking I could enable it after restart. After reboot the calendar had disappeared. Meaning: no icon in the ‘applications’ screen, when I go into the settings menu I only have one post named ‘calendar’ (the empty one). Calendar Storage still has content though and when I use widgets they seem to be able to access and sync to my main Google calender. When I use ‘month’ view I can see the different events I have in my calendar but I can’t edit anything from my phone. As soon as I try to actually access it I get the message ‘Unfortunately, TwLauncher has stopped’.
How do I restore, or enable the Calender again? I find it really disturbing that I don’t have a calender icon in ‘application’ anymore and that it seems to have completely disappeared.
I’ve tried clearing data, experimenting with the sync option and rebooting several times. I just can’t seem to get any results though. And I can't find it on play so I can't re-install it. Any insight on this?

First check via Google mail/calendar if u see ur appointments...
If u don't see it there, they wasn't saved it Google account and so just local, which u delete (no restore)
If u see them there, just delete and reactivate ur Google account on ur phone.
CHEERS ;-)

Might have worked had it been a sync problem only (my calendar is intact on the web). This however is a problem of the built-in calendar app disappearing. I removed the account and installed it again but the calendar did not appear.
I'm starting to think that factory reset is the only viable option.

Hmm but that's a bit much for just probs like this...
Hmm u checked the options in application > all > calendar and delete data again?
Then also checked if calendar sync is active (I think so but just an idea)
So last option before factory reset would be wiping the dalvik cache
If at all now luck... U can do it.
But would be really strange.

Lost Calendar Events
Sorry for reviving an old thread, but I have a similar issue/problem
I was syncing and unsyncing with my samsung to google calendars, then the next day I checked, I realized all my events disappeared.
I did not erase anything yet all my events were gone.
I did notice that something was occurring during the period that I lost my data.
I saw that my default Samsung browser on my smart phone went on a refresh loop on google home page. This was an issue on googles end and was resolved eventually.
This was one of google's problems. There would be an issue with google recognizing me logging on the google home page and gmail. This lasted for a week. I wonder if that caused my data to disappear?
There are a few links below describing what happened. I'm wondering if this is an issue with Google, samsung+google, or syncing in general.
if I can recover my lost events that would be great!
It seems like a lot of them has to do with smartphones syncing, which is what I did. Even if there isn’t a solution or a recovery for this, it would be great to at least get an understanding as to why this happened (so i can avoid it in the future). I am currently storing everything local to my phone and havne’t experienced any loss of information. It’s quite disconcerting that if I did use google calendars, at any moment, all my events can go missing.

Restore a recent backup, that way the period of events lost will be minimal; only events entered/altered after the time of the backup, obviously (and you can then sync to Google if you like to bring that back up to date).
So far as recovering your lost events goes, I doubt Google will restore an individuals calendar events. Tho you might as well ask them, they might surprise you. That way you then simply restore them to your phone.
Failing that, unless you've got a copy of the db file containing the calendar events still on the phone, can't see how you'd get them back unfortunately.
As to why, I'd be asking Google. I've been keeping my phone/Google calendar synced a couple of times a day over the year and a bit I've had my SGS2 & never had a problem from their end (a couple very early doors caused by me when I had to reset my phone & I hadn't synced to Google before doing the reset).
Thanks Mistah. Unfortunately I didnt make any backups with TiBu or a nandroid at that time.
I've asked google and you are correct, they dont do event restores.
Yes definitely my main concern is why it happened at all? So it never happened to you?....hmmm..
im wondering if it was something on Google's part or something I did.
Before I realized my calendar disappeared, I unsynched and erased the profile on my device so it only had the local calendar, then i synced again.
I wonder if my erasing that profile on my samsung caused the calendar to delete. Or maybe it didn't register or save?
I can't 100% recall if I saved the events on google's calendar or my local. but if I stored on my local, shouldnt the data still be there even after my sync and unsync or google calendar?

Yep. If you remove the Google a/c from your phone completely, it deletes the events attached to that Google a/c in the calendar app. When you add it back, you'll have an empty calendar until you sync it from Google.
So essentially, what's seemed to have happened is you've done that with the a/c on your phone, for whatever reason your events @ Google's end have been nuked, so when you've re-added the a/c back on your phone & gone to sync it, there's been nothing there to sync back to the phone.
If you untick 'show [email protected]' in the calendar app settings (as opposed to removing the a/c outright), exit the app & restart the app you end up with an empty calendar, because it must have a Google a/c linked. If you retick 'show [email protected]' your events show again because simply unticking it doesn't delete anything.
Removing the a/c outright from the phone must purge the DB file(s) (?? I presume) on the phone.
That's the most logical explanation I can come up with given what happened/the order it happened in with your phone.

I just tried it again. I removed the account from my phone. then resynced it. All the info from the calendar is still there.
Currently i store everything locally and only view local calendar (as you've said, untick google calendar).
Also not sure if this matters, I'm not using google calendars, I'm using samsung's stock calendar planner.
I cant see how removing the account from ur handheld would erase all events from your calendar. Isn't removing the account just deciding not to sync with it?

google is blaming on samsung's app causing the erase when syncing.

but other contacts that i don't use have stayed synced with no problems
i have actually saves the same contact under different names many times and still have them not sync.
i have checked all of my sync settings and have them syncing correctly
i have the following sync systems setup
verizon backup assistant
exchange (through work)
facebook

This point here kind of confuses me. Have you checked/enabled "internet" syncing for this account? i assume you know where you could selectively turn off and on syncing different items for an account. how did you conclude that internet does not sync for one account?
Syncing is been the basics of smartphones and i don't expect this to be a bug somewhere.
If you have got the time, i would suggest a system reset.
Just for clarification, are you saving numbers and it is not syncing back to your Google account? I had this problem when I first got this phone since I am used to AOSP Roms. I noticed that I did not change my "Contact Type" to my Google account when saving new contacts. The default saves to your phone if you do not select another account. I am not sure if this is the issue you are experiencing. Good luck.

Yes that's right in the area where you can selectively choose what to sync the only thing that's ever an error is the internet for one account that says" sync is experiencing troubles please try again later "
I'll try a reset tonight and see what happens ....

When you say your contact type do you mean yours or the contact tyour saving?
I'll have to dig through the settings a bit more.

Yes that's right in the area where you can selectively choose what to sync the only thing that's ever an error is the internet for one account that says" sync is experiencing troubles please try again later "
I'll try a reset tonight and see what happens ....

When you create a new contact it has a box that says "Contact Type". If you do not change it to Google, it will default to be saved on your phone only. That is all I can think of if you are saving a contact and it is not syncing. Unless it is a syncing problem throughout your phone.

In address book you can also chose to only display Google contacts or any combination of all your sources.
