[Q] Calendar only syncing one way - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
My phone Samsung Galaxy S2 with Andorid version Gingerbread 2.3.5
Until few days ago calendar sync was working without problem. But now stopped sync to google servers.
For example:
If I add appointment to my Google calendar online (browser on PC), it shows up on my android calendar - no problem. But when I add appointment on the android calendar (using the factory calendar as well as "Bussines Calendar") the appointments don't show up on my Google calendar online, but instead it's get deleted in my android calendar.
I've tried:
Restart the phone.
Syncing several times, turn sync on and off many times.
Clearing the data of Calendar store and Calendar applications.
This also happens on device Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 (gingerbread)
Checked that I adding appointments to gmail calendar and not on local calendar
Can anybody with gingerbread try this?
I've have the feeling that Google changed something on their Calendar services online....
Thanks.

[Q] Shared Calendars Vanish

Hello everyone,
I just reflashed my phone with KB1 over the weekend, and really like the ROM. However, I am still having an issue I was having before (on JK6) which I am hoping someone can help me solve.
I use a Google Apps account for my personal email and calendar, and my company uses Google Apps for our corporate email and calendar. I have my calendars shared between both accounts.
When I reflashed my phone and setup my personal Google account on my phone, both calendars were showing up just fine on my TouchWiz calendar, and the LauncherPro calendar widget.
Now, a few days later the TouchWiz calendar doesn't show my work (shared) calendar in the list if calendars, and none of my appointments either. Same with the TouchWiz widget.
Any ideas what could be going on here?

TW Calendar help

Ok i've got a S2, and i've decided to use the google calendar sync service.
So i've put my appointments in the Calendar online, and though ok here goes.

[Q] Google calendar not syncing with device

I have a strange problem where the events in my Google Calendar are not syncing with the stock calendar application.
There are one or two of the latest events that I have added, and these show up in both locations, but all previous events are nowhere to be seen.
When I click on a day in the calendar app I get two messages:
Google calendar cannot sync with Samsung Kies. Use My calendar to sync with Kies - irrelevant, I do not use Kies.
Local calendar cannot sync with Google calendar. You need a google account - at which I go to the account and sync it. Nothing happens.
I can create an event in my Google calendar and it pops straight through as it should do, but none of the previous events and I keep getting these sync errors.
Please help, as it's giving me a headache.
Thanks.

Hmm ... that is not easy to solve.
I also had a similar issue with my Google calendar synch.
After installing a leaked version of Google Talk with Video chat (I think it was the one from paulobrien => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075494&highlight=modaco+talk), my Google account was deleted and I had to create it again.
Since then, I have no problem to synch my Google calendar entries.
Everything is fine now.
So, you may try to delete your Google account on your phone and re-install it again afterwards.
Good luck !

Problem Sync SPlanner and Google Calendar

I am getting frustrarted with SPlanner unable to synchronize properly with Google Calendar. Task don't get synchronized, events and birthdays are also not synchronized properly. Maybe I am doing it wrongly somehow.
Anyway this is my problem. I add a birthday to a contact list and Google Calendar shows the updated birthday on my Google "Contacts Birthday's and Events" Calendar. However, for some weird reason, my SPlanner doesn't shows the updated event. So when I sync SPlanner, the Google "Contacts Birthday's and Events" will get deleted also. I think when I sync SPlanner, there aren't anything there so the Google Calendar gets deleted.
And talking about Task, it just doesn't sync at all. Task created on Gmail will not sync with SPlanner and vice versa.
Is this a bug with the Jelly Bean ROM or its just poor Samsung integration with Google?. Do I need to use the the original AOSP Calendar or must I also use the AOSP Contact.apk to make it all work properly? I want to keep this phone as original as possible so I hope no third party software other than Google or Samsung.

Hello I came to this forum to search for the answer to the same question.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 with android 2.3.3 and I cannot add any new event to the google calendar. The event simply gets deleted after 1-2 minutes after I input it into the phone.
I have tried searching for answers on google, but the proposed solutions did not work. I tried: clearing Calendar app cached data; also tried creating a new calendar - the new calendar is there, but new events disappear from it 1-2 minutes after being created.
I am worried that google messed up something on their side - but I have no idea where to even report it.
Yes, I saw that Google updated their Google Calendar after I visited Google Calendar page (few days ago): https://www.google.com/calendar
So there must be some bug, becuase I also check their troubleshooter and still no solution to my problem:
