I've got two questions about the Calendar and Poweramp and hope this is the right place to post.
I sync my Google calendar and office Outlook calendar with my Samsung Galaxy. I usually have the Launcher Pro Paid Calendar widget or Calwidget on one of the homescreens. I've noticed that after tapping some events in these widgets and perhaps deleting one or two*, I'll get a message on my notification bar stating that there are too many calendar deletes. I never really paid much attention to them, until today. I noticed that the first two events for the week have been deleted, though I'm almost 100% sure that I never deleted them. So my question is, can the widgets be 'buggy' such that if I were to accidentally double tap an event, it gets deleted?
*The reason I deleted the events is that I often get duplicates (or even 'triplicates'). Does that happen to others?
Lastly, I tried installing the modded transparent Poweramp widget two weeks ago. My phone had a pop-up message stating that the modded Poweramp could not be installed. So I deleted the .apk file, but I still can't install the original free Poweramp. Any ideas what might have gone wrong? There's a possibility that I might have copied and placed the file in another folder while using Root Explorer, but I can't seem to find it.
Thanks in advance.
I just lost almost all the Feb and March appointments in my office outlook. They still shows on my phone's calendar, though I'm not sure whether they'll disappear later. And my Nov and December appointments in outlook have duplicated or quadruplated themselves.
Looks like I can't trust outlook anymore.

Well, you know what the issue was now.....
I still don't know why Outlook should go bonkers though.

I'm having an issue with the built in facebook support, I can sign in to flickr and twitter, but when I try to sign in to my facebook so I can link with contacts, it says that the service is currently unavailable....something I'm missing? I'm running fresh rom 0.7 with the patches.
I am having the same problem. Are you using the Hero or Eris? I have an Eris and am having this problem.
I'm seeing this post topic on all the boards right now. It must be down.
It must have something to do with the new privacy settings that Facebook just implemented.

i wonder if maybe you need to log in to facebook.com from your phone and accept the privacy policy?
Thats a no go. I just logged in to Facebook with the Android app and I still can't login through the Social network option.
Facebooks no privacy settings reset all of your privacy and app options. We may have to wait for an update for it to work properly, but mine doesn't sign in either, not even Bloo or Fbook.
not sure but....
after many...many....many retries it finally connected, that was weird, I just hope that I never have to go through that again (no more wipes for me unless absolutely neccesary)
Anyway, weird glitch, I could log in with the Facebook for Android app though, so not sure what would have caused that.

I'm pretty sure all that app does is interact with their website as opposed to using the API. Looks like the problems were with the API.
www.facebook.com is down as of right now. I tried from work internet and my phone 3g.
I imagine they are having some problems.
Good thing I found this post, I didn't notice a problem until immediately after installing unofficial MoDaCo 1.2c and I've been flashing recovery images all day trying to fix it.
It is working for me now. I haven't done anything to either my phone or Facebook options sense yesterday. Wonder what it was? Oh well, as long as it is working.
Facebook sync appears broken
To give you a little background, I've had a rooted Hero for quite a while now. I have been running Fresh 1.1 since it was released. I have also had my Facebook linked so I have all of my contacts with pictures and info in my phonebook.
Well after a few other mods on my phone like taskbars, icons, etc. I decided to wipe and go back to a fresh install of Fresh 1.1 again. I linked my Facebook profile again and after a few hours everyone was showing back up in my contacts list with pictures and such.
Last night my phone started acting weird and alot of things were FC'ing, maybe 3 or 4 things, but I didn't look at what specifically. Later last night I realized all my facebook stuff was gone again from my contacts list. I thought that maybe it was because of one of the processes that FC'd so I restarted the phone but as of this morning still a phonebook full of blank heads.
Anyone else had this issue? I've tried logging out and logging back in and everything. Any help would be appreciated, the phonebook looks so ugly without everyones pictures.
It may be a coincidence, but facebook itself has some severe issues right now. Some people are of a mind that the "new" viewing heuristics are themselves broken. You now view based on your history and interactions with/of your friends. My age there is 100 so it they write (email) to me personally.
Facebook Error
I am unable to sign into Facebook from the app it from HTC senses Facebook. I have tried wiping everything and various ROMs but im having the sane problem. any help would be appreciated
Sync Facebook Calendar
I am having a problem getting my facebook calendar to sync. I am running a Damagecontrol 2.1 Rom when I 1st set the phone up I'll see my facebook calendar entries in my calendar and eventually they disappear and the option to disply the facebook calendar also disappears. Does anyone have any insight?
facebook/google birthdays
i have some contacts that i have entered birthdays for in my google address book, however they are also friends of mine on facebook. i noticed within the calendar widgets that it lists the birthdays for these contacts twice once for the google contacts calendar and one for the facebook calendar. Is there a way to fix this so for linked contacts it only lists the birthday on one calendar.

uncheck facebook in your calendars to show.
well i would like the birthdays of friends who i dont have on google to show up still, i just don't want duplicates and i dont want to go through all my google contacts and remove their birthdays.
Contacts facebook link
Is there a way to link all contacts with their appropriate facebook account automatically, i remember in 1.5 it would auto predict and suggest linking automatically for all the contacts, there is no option to do all contacts in 2.1...
anyone know of a way to go about doing that instead of painfully going one by one...
Ever since Froyo the one thing I have noticed is that my Friendstream and News widgets sync button in the bottom of the widget does not always work. At times it jumps to the left when clicked and quite often it finishes the job before everything is actually sync'ed. This is especially bad on Friendstream that sometimes requires three or more clicks on manual sync button in order to actually sync the feed.
Deleting accounts and removing widgets, then adding accounts and widgets again did not fix it.
I wasn't able to find threads about this, but if there is one already please let me know.
It has only gotten worse, I've tried removing Facebook accounts and re-sync'ing them. Right now I have to do a LOT of sync now clicks in order to sync my contacts, because it only syncs about 3 to 5 contacts at a time, per click. And live feed is almost not synced at all.
No one else experiencing this? Perhaps it's related to newer version of Facebook app?
Hey developers,
i wonder if it's possible to build an app that can sync googlemail correctly, with all options (labeling, different adresses, etc) and also syncing the google calendar with all options such as multiple calendar support, etc.
Togehther with a livetile that shows new mails and a toast notification for appointments this could be a killer app for WP7 and would make me switch immediately to WP7.
I don't know much about programming, it's just a question about the possibility.
Any Ideas?
Yes, it is possible.
Thanks a lot for your detailed answer...
Is anyone working on this kind of app?
I have the Samsung focus, and gmail works perfectly. I can see all of my folders, all labels. As far as the calender, it only shows the primary.
Not really sure what you're asking for. All of that functionality is baked into the OS. You can sync your gmail and it'll create a new mailbox icon that you can pin to your start screen. And you can sync your google calendar to your calendars which give you notifications of appointments.
Why would you want a separate app?
Example:
Calendar:
I have six different calendars, all in one account.
WP7 shows only the main one.
Under android, all calendars are shown.
E-Mail:
Of course WP7 displays the labels as folders but not as labels.
I do often label an e-mail with two or three labels without moving it to a folder.
It stays in my in-box.
If i do a search under WP7 to look for a special label, then only those mails are found who have been moved to the appropriate folder.
To use all the features of googlemail the syncing of WP7 isn't good enough.
That's why i'd love to have an app for that
I don't know if SuperG calender has everything you want, but it might hold you over...no live tile, no notifications, but it will show all your google calenders

Thanks for the hint.
Tried it.
Does not display any calendar... all it does is displaying error codes.
1,99 EUR wasted.
Only to inform you if anyone wants to try this app out.
Still looking for an app that fits my needs

The calendar problem is the same with Windows Live calendars - I'm not sure what the deal is with that
Gmail shows the labels as folders when using IMAP - it'll be the same in any email program that connects with IMAP. The issue with this is that it will stay in the inbox and appear in all the folders for which it is labelled - if I label something in my inbox with "XDA" and "WP7", it will appear in the inbox folder, as well as the "XDA" and "WP7" folders, but it is the same item.
It wouldn't be so bad if the mobile Gmail site wasn't so useles....

Agree.
I don't understand why only the main calendar is synced.
Does no one in Redmont use more than one calendar (friends, work, private, other companies)?
Unfortunately i need at least four of my calendars for my business.
Let's hope, a dev has a heart and solves our problem

All i can see in this app are error codes:
> network error getting calendar...<
All six of my calendars are getting the same error.
Made sure a million times that email and password were correct.
Tried with wlan and 3G... no worky.
Would like to get in contact with the developer but in the app description there's no contact data.
Anyone know this dev?
I have 4.0.3 installed on my Nexus S (GT-9020), and have been loving it - best OS I have used on any phone. So sleek and well designed, it's a real shame most users will never see it's full glory once Samsung, HTC et al will put their own skin over it.
Anyway, yesterday (29th Feb) all my calendar appointments disappeared from my phone and now it is only showing new ones added since yesterday.
None of my settings have changed, I still have my work exchange account and my gmail account syncing and the mail from both are fine. All the calendars are still selected to be shown. When I go online I can still see my appointments in Google Calendar so I know they haven't been deleted and in Outlook my exchange appointments are also still there.
I don't know what has happened. At first I thought it was just the widget but the full app doesn't show them either.
Has anyone seen this? Does anyone know how to sort it?
Cheers.

Try turning sync off for calendar , restart, then turn it back on?
Have you tried clearing data from the calendar app? Go into Settings | Apps | All | look for calendar and clear data.
Are you using a custom ROM? Is this for all appointments (google and exchange)?
I had this problem once for the exchange appointments. I resolved it by removing the exchange account, and adding it back again with all settings left at default.
Maybe a problem with the leap year? But then others should also having problems.
I would also remove the calendar, reboot, delete data and re-add the calendar.
Thanks Oogway13.
I tried turning off and on sync with no joy, but deleting the app data under the app "Calendar Storage" did the trick. Everything went (as expected) then opened the calendar app (can't remember if I selected refresh or not) and all my appointments slowly came back. Weird.
I didn't need to reboot or remove-add the calendar app (which I think you can only disable, not remove, on ICS anyway) so that's good.
Just running stock Nexus S ICS ROM (downloaded from this forum) and use stock calendar app for both google calendar and exchange calendar. All had gone missing though!
Glad it's back.
Excellent!! good to know it's working now
I was having tons of problems with Google Calendar entries seeming self-deleting. It only occurred for events that I had also invited my wife to, like our weekly volleyball games. It turns out that since I share my wife's calendar to my Google account so I can view both of our upcoming appointments, the Huawei Calendar app (which can't be uninstalled, or disabled) was seeing the "duplicate" entries and trying to delete one. It always ended up deleting the entry from my calendar, which is where to invite originated, so it would end up cancelling the event for everyone. I would go into my calendar trash on the web and restore the event, only to have it self-destruct again 5-10 minutes later!
The solution:
System Settings->Apps
Find the Huawei Calendar app (the first one if you also have the stock Google Calendar app installed) and click it
Select Permissions and revoke the calendar permission (I revoked them all, since I don't want the damn app anyway!)
This will render the Huawei Calendar app useless, so you'll have to install the stock Google one, but at least it's stopped the self-destructing calendar entries that were driving me insane!
This bug hits me pretty bad. Thank you for posting!
THANK YOU SO MUCH for posting this. I could not for the life of me figure out why only certain events (ones I also invited my wife to) were getting deleted and/or "cancelled" automatically. I had tried not syncing my Google account's calendar at all and that fixed it, but was also a pain in the ass to go to the mobile site all the time. Never would have thought to deny permissions to the EMUI calendar. Seems to have worked so far.
Thanks so much for this. I had it happen where it deleted an invite to more than a dozen colleagues.
Thanks, I thought I was going crazy. This will help me out until I can replace this phone. This software is just a joke.
Hi, I had same problem with Honor 7, but now have Honor 9 with EMUI 5.1 is this fixed in this version or still need to revoke the calendar permission ?
Thank you so much for sharing this. It is really helpful.
