Google Calendar 2.1 sync with Exchange - XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps

Hello all,
I want to use my Google Calendar for exchange. In android 2.2 it is possible to add a exchange account. I thought 2.1 would give this functionality... so after upgraden to 2.1 (Nordic) Im a bit disapointed. I dont want to use 3th party apps for my calendar.
Is it possible to update/upgrade the Android 2.1 calendar to the Android 2.2 version?
Kind regards

There is another post with this question which probably have moved down without much answer. We could not find any good solution as we speak. SE has removed them for their good. In other post, he has attached mail.apk and calendar.apk for 2.1 but no way to run them. If you are a developer take a look and see what you can take out of it.
Cheers,

accepting appointments via email. How do I?

So I had this working at one point, but had to do a rom flash and seem to have lost the functionality.
I used to be able to accept a google calendar appointment that came in via email and it was added to my WM6.1 appointments.
I was using Ricky's 6.1 v17 rom but upgraded to the latest (v24 I think) while troubleshooting another issue. I'd prefer not to downgrade if possible (thereby having to set everything up again).
Can anyone help me undestand the regular way to accept the invite via email (invite.ics attachment) so that it populates my local calendar?
Like I said, it was working once before....so I know it's possible. I just don't know what the configuration requirment/dependency is.
Thanks
seriously? am I the only one intersted in this? Not even a nibble?

[APP PORT REQUEST] HTC Mail Client (Desire)

Is it possible to install the HTC Mail client (from HTC Desire) on the Nexus 1? I've grown used to the 2.1 interface and not interested in running Sense UI. However, I would like to have the HTC Mail client since it comes with full Exchange support (mail, contacts, calendar). I know it is not as easy as pushing the APK - I already tried that and got the Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_MISSING_SHARED_LIBRARY]. Any ideas on whether running this app (with libraries) on the Nexus 1 is possible?
N1 already does exchange mail and contacts. just install motocal and motogal for exchange calendar and global address list.

Mail client in N1 does not seem to fully support mail2web exchange, and the client is VERY limited. I had to purchase Touchdown.
Yeah, the HTC Mail client depends on HTC's frameworks, which means you have to run a full HTC ROM to get it. you can, however, push the default 2.1 Launcher2.apk into a Desire ROM, for that stock feel with HTC goodies. (well, you should be able to. I haven't tried it, but see no reason why it wouldn't work). And if you want to go even farther, you could probably push Browser.apk, Calendar.apk, maybe even Settings.apk... and a bunch of others to make it look and feel stock, but keep some HTC goodies. And I'm sure there's a morph out there that will change the statusbar back to light color.
You dont need to push anything the launcher is there... Go to settings programs and disable dfaults for htc sense and bam u have default launcher.

I am running CorGAL and MotoCAL right now. The 2 features I am missing is the ability to look up corporate addresses from within the native email application, and have a automatic signature applied. We have 5,000 employees and although I don't email each of them routinely - I just don't want to have to look them up individually each time - nor do I want to download their email to my address book. I know Touchdown can do all of this, but I think their implementation is horrible. HTC Mail client is a nice piece of work and that is what I would like to use.
try k9mail
Very cool app with search and folders the 2.510 is awsome but i recomend to fully understand the folders class thing
Very stable and cool with attachements (my first concern )
i tried to pull the motogal.apk from the droidx froyo rom and push it in, but i dont see it in list of programs, do we need to port it to froyo? or am i doing something incorrectly? i use android commander to do this?

[Q] Android in Corporate Environment

I was able to get a Droid Incredible out of my place of work to use for business. I am an IT guy and am looking for some specific things.
1st Exchange support. I have flashed my incredible to cm6 to get rid of sense because I like vanilla android better. This however brings the problem of losing my GAL support through the Sense email/people apps. Is there any app out there that will get this back? I have found Touchdown, and its ok, but I really dislike the fact that I have to input a pin after 5 minutes of not being in e-mail, and it doesnt really integrate itself into android. I was able to find hacked mail apks for both stock android and the email sense app. But with the stock mail app I still lose out on the GAL. And the sense email app is... ugly. Also is it possible to setup a shared mailbox like I can do in outlook? I have an iPhone 4 as my personal phone and its just much better as far as exchange support goes. Any suggestions here would be great.
Second is setting up VPN to work with cisco ipsec protocol. I cant seem to find out how to set this up, though I have read it requires rooting, which I have done.
Thanks for your input.

froyo native calendar on gingerbread

Hello Everyone,
In froyo's native calendar apk was an option I lack on gingerbread. Location was "linkable" to maps. In gingerbread you can add/pin location to appointment but isn't that functional for me. I would like to be able to open an appointment and click on location that will take to maps. Long story short - I would like to have foryo's native calendar on gingerbread. I'm aware of other great calendars available on market but I really like stock one.
Could anybody help me with instaling froyo's calendar on gingerbread?

Does Samsung Ever Upgrade Stock Apps?

Hi all, I'm a very recent switcher from iPhone (just got the SR 5 days ago after owning the original iPhone and then the 3gs for the past 4 years) and had a question about the stock apps.
I really like the stock Samsung e-mail app over the Gmail app for managing my gmail accounts but one thing that is a glaring omission is the inability to archive e-mails. I know you can do this through the Gmail app but to me the Samsung app is just slicker plus it has unified inbox which was great on the iPhone.
In the original iPhone mail app you used to not be able to archive Gmail email for the longest time until a fairly recent update (i think it was the same update that gave us unified inbox- not sure though). Along the same lines, is it possible that Samsung will ever update the stock e-mail app to support archiving? If so, how do you update stock apps? Does it only come with a new OS update like ICS?
I guess I could be persuaded into looking at 3rd party apps but I think I really prefer to stay with stock because I know it has been specifically designed with this phone's hardware in mind and is probably the most optimized with regards to memory management, battery, etc. Thanks!
gmail for android supports archiving already.
You might be able to archive with activesync/imap if you move the email out of the inbox folder but that's more of a hack then anything else.
To answer your original question I would not expect many changes to the stock apps excluding those that are in the market (maps, gmail, etc) until we get ics.
