Hello,
I signed up here because I'm frustrated.
I use the calendar from my Google account. With the Honor 8X (and the Mate 20 Lite) I have the problem that the calendar is not being synchronized.
When I create an appointment on the PC, it doesn't appear on the Honor. The other way round. An automatic update does not take place.
If I synchronize the calendar manually in the settings it works. But that can't be the solution. It is a basic function that simply has to work.
By the way, changed or deleted birthdays are not updated at all, not even manually. Here it only helps to delete the calendar memory.
Also the installation of the Google calendar from the Playstore didn't help.
So I cannot and do not want to use the mobile phone. Does anyone have an idea?
(PS: English is not my native language)
Maybe mine Is a stupid question, but do you have Google Calendar Sync installed on your device?
If yes, as I suppose, have you checked if this process is not protected under battery management?

I dont find an app with this name. But i have installed the "Google Calendar" App, so i think it should have everything it needs?
No, it's not enough: you need a sync process, this one Google Calendar Sync https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...calendar-sync-5-2-3-99827563-release-release/
This sync process enable your whatsoever Calendar app to sync with your google account.
P.S.1: Sorry for my English, too
P.S.2: Are you sure you have all Google Apps installed in your device? I'm asking this because is very strange you don't have Google Calendar Sync yet. Each GApps package will include Google Play, Camera, Keyboard, Gmail and much more. Of course, if you have the Google Play Store, along with obligatory Google Play Services, you’ll have access to the entire catalogue. Without these core apps, there's no way out: you can't have your calendar sync'ed.
I have installed everything and it has now also worked with the synchronization of appointments. But when I change or delete birthdays, they are not updated. No matter what I try. I have to delete the calendar memory first, which I think is very inconvenient. I will therefore return the phone and hope that Huawei will fix this bug at some point.
I've been using Google Calendar since I got the Honor 8X and it works perfectly. If I add an appointment on my PC it appears on the phone within a couple of minutes. I have had no problem keeping everything synced.
And what about birthdays? For example you create a new contact with a birthday. And then u delete the contact... the birthday remains forever in the calendar.

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...

And you connected to google services right at the initial setup wizard, without skipping it? There goes the theory then...

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

On the Hero, it's remembered next time. at least it is for me.

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.

Hey,
I have two issues and two questions regarding them......
1) I would like to sync the Tasks app. with Google however I do not see Google in the Sync Task profile only my Samsung account.
2) I'd like to sync the Memo app. with Google. It says that I'm not logged in to Google Docs however when I put both my email and password in the login tab does not light up, if I use a different email address it does.
As an added note I also declined a popup from Google about permissions to see what would happen. The window disappeared and nothing did happen!..... At least thats what I thought till now! Not sure how to undo that and suspect that's the problem!
I have also tried to remove my Google account, this only seems possible if you hard reset-which would have to be a last resort for me. I've also been on to my Gmail and Google docs setting via P.C. and am unable to find any setting there that would be affecting these issues.
Any Ideas on how to fix this?
I also have this problem and can not solve it.
I have google docs installed on my phone, but the e-mail address which is registered does not end with gmail.com but a different domain. I can use google docs without a problem but I can not login inside Memo to sync it with my google account.
Any ideas?
I prefer this app. Works great for me http://www.appbrain.com/app/gtasks/org.dayup.gtask

Is very good (I use it a lot)... But doesn't solve the sync of Memo... Any recommendations?
i use document to go for google doc... they work fantastic!
Since there's still no way to sync memo with google, i just use Simple Notepad. Color note sounds good too, it supports online back up and sync but haven't try it yet ...
Im using Mobisle Notes. Is very good, not perfect... But... the best u could find.
Any solution on this problem? I also would like to sync my task and memo with my google account. But when I hit the "Sync task" only Samsung Account is available for sync. When I hit the "Add Account", I can only add Exchange ActiveSync account".
I read in this forum and elsewhere, many have successfully sync their task with google task. I wonder is it really possible to sync stock task app with google task? Maybe it is the bug of my ROM. I am using stock ROM Gingerbread 2.3.3.
Use Google docs ore dropbox

Thanks for the information. But since the Tasks is already available for TouchWiz, I would rather use the built in Tasks app. I think the only way is to configure the Gmail Account as an Exchange ActiveSync account. There is a sample configuration for that in the Internet.
Sorry, you mean Task or Notes is on TouchWiz?
Also, can you post the "There is a sample configuration" you mention?
I would like to see it.
Thanks!
Hi there
I am on Android since about 2 months, using a HTC Desire S. As I am allergic with Sense, I direclty installed a custom rom, from wich I deleted useless applications to me.
This is when I figured out that deleting Gmail will prevent the calendar to work ("You have no calendars").
So I got connected to my Gmail account from the web (created especially to access the android market), and I noted that my calendar were syncronized, and worst, that all my contacts from the phone were there too.
I am not quite parano, but I'd like to know if there is a way to keep the calendar and contacts only on the phone.
Autosync is disabled on my phone, but it had probably been enabled on the early days, so would disabling the auo sync prevent FOREVER my calendar and contacts to be uploaded to gmail, and manly, is it possible to use the calendar without installing the gmail apk ?
Thank you
Can't tell you about what the sync is doing, because I honestly do not care, so I haven't looked into it, BUT what I can tell you is that the calendar works beautifully eventhough I don't have GMail installed.
Thanks for your information
Well then...
I found somethin' about these apks :
GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk
GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk
But I did not delete them, I can find them on my /system/app/ folder, when I tried to install them it asked me if want to replace it, I said Yes but then I have the report with the green check (as a good thing happened), but next to it it's writtent "Application not installed"...
Well it did nothing I think but this doesn't seem to be my issue, as they are already there.
OK,
What I had to do, is simply go in the "account & sync settings" menu, click on my gmail account (synced off) and then launch a calendar sync...
So this is a force go, if you want to use calendar, you need to sync it at least once.
Quite fair but could be better, even Bada needs a Samsung account to use the store since Bada 2.0...
Hello! I'm a new Android user but I don't want to share my personal data with google. Is it a way to run android calendar instead of Google calendar on a 2.3.7 CyanogenMod Rom?
I've downloaded several other calendar apps (Jorte, Calendroid, FliqAgenda, GeminiCalendar, BusinessCalendar) but none could help me to store my appointments on a local database that I could retrieve with MyPhoneExplorer.
Any clue?
Nobody can help?
Export data from your google acc, and import to my phone explorer.
Sent using Tt.
Thanks for your reply. But I don't understand how this can solve my problem.
It seems there is no android calendar provider on CM ROMs, only Google one. When entering a new appointment I only have the choice between Exchange and Google. My data are already in the PC and managed by MyPhoneExplorer. I've erased all the data from my Google account I don't want to register to Google to be able to use my phone, I don't have to. I refuse their privacy policy.
On LG genuine ROMS we had android Mail and GMail, android Calendar and Google Calendar we could live without a Google account, the same on derivated ROMs like EleganceSwift 5.0 if I remember.
Hm, sorry for misanderstending.

You can try the calendar app from miui rom.,...looking for a solution myself.my tablet is aosp so the options are limited to Google or exchange whereas my phone I could just sync using outlook
Hi guys!
I recently bought the mi pad 4 and so far I'm pretty happy with it. I downloaded the Google play store installer from xiaomi's webpage and so I got the play store up and running.
However the calendar and contacts app by Google don't seem to connect to my Google account. Contacts stays empty (only showing the few contacts that use telegram) and the calendar app shows a placeholder account, look at the attached image.
I would really like to also use those two apps on my tablet and would love if someone could help me.
Thanks in advance¡
Best wishes

i was facing the same problem, here was how i solved it:
Give all permission, or at lease the permission to modify your contact, to Google Account Manager, Google contact sync and the Google contact app.
Allow these app to started by other apps, in the startup settings.
Also I tried to install google contact sync version 9 but it doesn't work, i downgrade to 8 and contact appear in the google sync option.
As for the calendar issue, try login within the calendar app.
Try to install Google Calendar and Phone apps and they will ask for activating the calendar and contact sync. Of course you need to say "yes".
The above method works for me.
didn't get the prompt to grant certain permissions for those apps, but finally I've managed. Alot of permissions had to be granted manually to both contacts and calendar app and google services.
thanks for the help, guys!
work for me

I was able to make Calendar work using this method but I can't fix Contacts using this method. I wonder if I use xiaomi.eu ROM, will it fix contacts and calendar problems?
