Goto Settings -> Accounts & sync
Select the Google account
un-tick Sync contacts and Sync Calendar
That works after you setup the account but there does not seem to be a way to disable the initial sync of calendar and contacts and once I disable syncing of those items it does not get rid of any that it has downloaded.
Any other thoughts on how to disable syncing of google calendar and contacts from the start?

reset yoyr phone to factory specs. then restart your phone. when the htc setup wizard starts skip over everything. once the home screen loads go to settings, sync. now uncheck calander and contacts. now click on add google account, enter in your google information. calander syncing and contact syncing now should not occur (make sure they are still unchecked though)
Hi,
In my Desire S,
------------------Ignore this part - solved
under Manage Accounts, there is google and a few others.
I want to remove some of those others like News, Weather and Stocks.
How to do that ?
-----------------
need an answer for the part below.
Secondly there are some processes which i can see running on process monitor but do not show on the app drawer. they are probably related to some telco apps which i do not need and would like to uninstall.
Would this require rooting ? Any other way to uninstall those unnecessary apps ?
thanks
thanks

I can't figure out how to keep my google mail and calendar from syncing on my gtab. I went to accounts and sync, but I can't seem to do anything from there. I don't want anything from my mail, or calendar etc to sync. Any advice? Thanks!
Normally, once you're in accounts and sync, you select your google account, then you'll get options to selects which things you want to sync (i.e. Calendar, gmail, contacts etc.)
Are you saying that you can't select the google account once you're in accounts and sync?
I can select my google account and see everything, but there Are no boxes to uncheck It just tells me the last time everything has synced.....
Oops nm I got it figured out lol

Having trouble with this. How do I disable it?
Hi,
I know you can sync your google calander to the HTC calander, however even tho i have the google account signed in and set up (I also know it works cause my contacts sync) i cant get the calander to, and when i go into accounts & sync, manual tell it to sync, it comes up syncing but nothing appears in my calander??
I also herd that in the drop down menu in calander you have pc sync, calander and then you should have option for google calander but i dont.
Have i done something wrong or need to tell the phone to do something??
Cheers
Can anyone help?
Download business calendar from market then uninstall it. It should work.
Or factory reset.
Those 2 methods work for me. Hope can help u.
Send from my awesome HTC Sensation + XDA Premium app.
Might be a dumb question - but have you activated Google calendar to be shown??
Check in the settings of Calendar which ones are shown and which ones not...
- mwie -
Yeah i have checked and its not an option in the drop down list. I only have pc sync
But when i go to sync and force it to sync still nothing.
i dont want to factory reset, thats too much hassel, i try the bussiness download.
Downloading the bussiness one actually worked, i now got the option to tick untick the google one in HTC. Im just not sure if i like the business one better than the HTC one now.
Thanks anyways im going to run both and see which one i like.
I cannot find business calendar on the market place?
Any ideas?

How come when I set facebook to sync only data for contacts I have it does under contacts. But if you tap the phone icon in contacts it brings up all of the facebook contacts. I have even tried unselecting sync data in the settings and in the pull down menu. It is starting to piss me off. The only way to get rid of it is to remove account from settings, then the ones I wanted to sync are.gone with the rest of my 300 facebook contacts I did not want on my phone. Now they are still there under "contacts'
Help

I believe if you disable the full sync in facebook, and uninstall it-it should bring your sync'ed data off of it. Otherwise you could manually delete it within the system. I'd think its not that big of a deal though. Just my opinion.
Cant you just go into Contacts, click the phonebook button and deselect your Facebook account from the list. This would make it so it only shows your phones contacts in the contact list, but everything will still be synced with your facebook account.
You can go into sync under settings and click facbook and uncheck contacts I believe. This will remove facebook contacts from your contacts list. You can also filter the contacts list itself and tell it to only show contacts with phone numbers.
I love the s-calendar widget, but I prefer the google calendar app.
In addition, this tablet has two additional calendars (a local one + a samsung one) that I cannot remove: I can hode them (that is, I make visible only google calendars) but I still get the option when creating a new event.
Anyone found a way to remove the two above calendars?
Anyone has suggestions, tips, tricks when using both samsung and google calendar applications? (for example, to avoid double notification, inconsistencies, etc)
thanks
I think if you disable sync calender in accounts the calender wont sync and hence no double notifications, I am not to sure about it you can try and disable the sync of the calender you do want you to notify

yes I have disabled the sync of the samsung calendar, but when I create an event I still have the opportunity to choose it from the list of the available calendars...
also, I have noticed that when creating an event with s-calendar there is no remonder: you have to add it, while with google calendar there's always a default reminder
In S Planner in settings below settings you will all you accounts have you gone into different accounts and uncheck all the sync settings

either I have a different s-planner or I am still missing something...
I have disabled sync for all non-google calendars and this solved half of my problem: now in s-planner I only see the google calendars (3 in total)
ut when I create a new event in s-planner, in the list of available calendars, I still see 5 calendars: the 3 google calendars, the local one (calendario personale, in the picture) and the samsung one (samsung calendar in the pic).

Look at this
The more you check the more events will be visible

I did that, but samsung calendar and local calendar still shoe up in the list of available calendars when creating an event...
The above option will help you in telling Splanner with which accounts to sync the accounts
This option will allow you to select from which accounts the calender events should be displayed
As far displaying the number of accounts my list is even more then yours I have around 5 same samsung accounts
I am trying to sync Google calendars on my tf700 with my calendars on my Nexus 4. I have made sure calendar sync is checked under account settings On both devices, but still no luck. Has anyone else experienced this problem?
Which rom are you using on both?
I have had extensive problems with calendar sync with my SGS2 -- I know it's not the same device, but it is finicky. Check under the attached Google account if there are sync errors -- if there are, remove the attached Google account altogether, re-add it and sync the calendar anew. I know it's a pain the proverbial butt, but after days of fooling around on my SGS2 I got it working. (Luckily I had the 700 for my day-to-day calendar needs.)
That's a little vague....
Do you get any errors? Or does it simply not do anything? Or do you get a semi-sync?
what calendar app are you using? you should use the one from play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.calendar&feature=search_result not the preloaded one
also go to settings of the app (not system settings), tap your account and check if sync is enabled
