Hi,
I have problems syncing the google calendar with my Nexus S.
I tried different MIUI ROMs but none of them seems to work.
The sync option is not even in the "accounts & sync"-settings.
Is there a fix or is it a general problem with ICS/MIUI?
do you make a clean install when flashing ROMs? Take a look here
the official MIUI ICS ROM still has the calendar sync issue. try Swat MIUI here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1407414. be sure to do full wipe first.

With ICS, there are two functionally different versions of Calendar:
The Google version of the app that is included in the OTAs incorporates proprietary components in the app itself that allow syncing with Google Calendar.
The AOSP version, which MIUI is a derivative of, does not include those proprietary components (to the best of my knowledge). I don't follow MIUI development, but that's probably why it is not working.
As far as I am aware of, if you want to be able to sync with Google Calendar, your only option at this point would be to install the OTA version (CalendarGoogle.apk). There is some distinction as well with CalendarProvider.apk, but it hasn't prevented syncing in my experience.
You may wanna check out Brickmaker MIUI

I just flashed BuglessPete's Stock 2.3.7 in order to get Google Wallet, moving away from ns4g-deck. The one thing I miss so far is not having my FB contacts sync. Is there any hack/app/workaround to get this to work properly?
Friendcaster app should enable sync - I heared.

Thanks - I'd prefer an OS level patch or tweak to a 3rd party app. Maybe I'm paranoid. Anything else out there or this be it?
Possible to port the source like what I assume kushdeck did?
Has anyone been able to get corporate calendar (exchange) syncing properly on any JB 4.2?
If yes which ROM and GAPPS have been used?
Any help to further debug this issue would be highly appreciated.
OLD POST:
I just flashed JEDI SoA (wiped System/Factory/Cache/Dalvik) and everything is working fine.
I successfully configured my Exchange account ... emails and contacts are sync without any problem but nothing appears in the calendar.
I forced a sync of the calender under Settings/Accounts ... no errors ... but still nothing in the Calendar.
I also tried installing Orthus 8 and I'm getting the same problem.
Under Calendar -> Setting -> Account I see a calendar for my Gmail account but nothing under the corporate one

What ROM were you using before?

same issue on Gnex.
I'm having the same issue on my Gnex, already on 2 different 4.2.2 ROMs. Corporate email and contacts are set up properly, but there is no Corporate Calendar in the "calendars to display" of Calendar settings. Under sync all 3 appear, calendar mail and contacts. I tried Slimbean and now on JBSourcery 5.1, both with custom (from the devs side) gapps. Could the gapps package be the fault? When I installed another 4.2.2 ROM, I installed the oficial gapps package for 4.2.2 and calendar sync was present. What apps/services are responsible for the corporate calendar sync ?
BR,
Ivan.

Initially I was using Superlite Superfast (vicom Rutumax 4.1.2) ... I'm still using as my daily drive.
Then I installed Jelly Jedi and I also tried Ortus.
Anyway before flashing the new ROM I always perform a "Wipe system" + "Factory reset" (at least 2x).
Exchange works fine on Superlite Superfast 4.1.2 (email + contact + calendar).
I never managed to get any 4.2.2 to work with Calendar ... Emails and Contacts worked initially and then stopped working after a while.
Let me try one more time ...
Has anyone been able to get corporate calendar (exchange) syncing properly on any JB 4.2?
If yes which ROM and GAPPS have been used?
If no ... is this a well know problem of JB 4.2?
Is this a ROM or GAPPS problem?
Thanks

I tried and didn't work. Email are fine but still nothing in the calendar.
Looking around I noticed that my Calendar apparently is working properly only on the distribution using Stock Exchange (SecExchange.apk) vs Exchange2.apk.
Could this be the reason?
I'm getting my outlook calendar to sync also.

Found a solution that worked for me:good:: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31803329&postcount=10
I have no data plan on my mobile so I changed "push" in settings to manual. Calendar showed up when I changed back to push. I haven't tested yet if I can sync without push though, but now know where the problem is.:laugh::victory:

Thanks snigel, followed the suggestion and worked. During the setup of the exchange account I left the frequency on "push" and the calendar was properly populated. I then changed the setting to manual and the calendar still show the exchange account in the list to sync.

maybe I'm too late... but I also had the same issue... had to set the sync to "Push". This fixed it for me. You can change back later.
I have trie both Revelation and ViperS, but none of them works with Exchange (not possible to add account).
Is there any other roms on Jelly Bean for HTC Sensation XE that can handle Exchange accounts (and Facebook syncronisation)?

Do you need it to be Sense-based? If not, have a look at droidevs HTC Sensation ROMs & Development.
It's a bit of a jungle because of the many virations and many(!) updates, but all of them are supposed to support exchange, and those that don't (in their current version) are already identified in the forum threads.

I already tried CM10 but I live since years with the Sense Theme and when other users uses that why not me Everything looks nice but the exchange-connectivity...
You guys do realize there are alternatives to sense email client? Im using Touchdown since first day, and its 10 times better with more options than email client from HTC.

You CAN use exchange with JB Roms.
This is how you do it:
Iceberger said:
With a help of an older JB rom (an ICS rom wont work), in this case ViperS v3.0.0 and Titanium Backup I came with this workaround.
1. Install ViperS v3.0.0 (JB) and add your Exchange and Hotmail accounts. in v3.0.0 it works!
2. In Titanium backup choose Accounts and Mail 5.5.2311133269.528614.493299 (E-MAIL ACCOUNT SETTINGS) to backup
3. Install ViperS v3.1.1, Restore Accounts and Mail 5.5.2311133269.528614.493299 (E-MAIL ACCOUNT SETTINGS)
4. Reboot
5. In accounts & sync enable synchronization for Exchange and Hotmail (and POP accounts, if you have them)

You restored facebook app along with data? Dont do that never if u did. Just add account and let it sync it self, never restore any Sense apps, or apps like Facebook or Twitter which have Sense integration.
I didnt restore facebook. I just installed it. It seems like its a sense issue. It works with CM10.1
Any ideas?

This is a workaround, not a fix.
You should be able to change password, but I am not aure.
For multiple accounts, just add 3 or more accounts in 3.0.0, and delete them after restore in 3.1.1. Then if you'll ever need to get them back, restore again using titanium, and you are good to go.
This is only until the devs fix the issue.
And if this is inconvenient, just use another mail client for the time being.

Happy to help.

ViperS will most likely fix it in the next issue. You can use some other mail client for exchange if you want for the time being.
Did some searching about this beforehand but couldn't come up with a solid answer. Really hoping someone can help me out.
I very recently changed my friend's MT4GS from the latest stock ROM to CM 10.1. The ROM works fine for the most part. The issue is that she seems to be missing the vast majority of her contacts which is extremely upsetting to her as I'm sure you can understand. The few that were retained were the only ones she had synced to her Google account. The really odd thing is that she has had this phone replaced on four different occasions (same model) and her contacts would always sync effortlessly going from one to the next (all of them being on the stock ROM until now).
I've tried enabling sync in the People app through Gmail, Facebook, and even adding her Hotmail account to the AOSP email app and syncing that as well. The latter did add plenty of contacts but not the ones she was used to seeing, just email contacts exclusive to that account, no phone numbers as such.
So basically there are a few questions that arise from all of this:
1: Is there a simple way to get the contacts back while still on AOSP?
2: If we were to revert back to the stock ROM would the contacts come back as they have in the past?
3: Why would the contacts sync on the stock ROM but not AOSP?
Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.
She was probably syncing contacts with T-Mobile and not Google, go back to at least a stock based ROM, sync contacts, then transfer them to gmail, then you can flash any ROM you want as they will be tied to gmail

Thanks for the info and the tip. I'll give a shot and report back.
Its the most annoying thing for me with AOSP ROMs
The contacts she has "lost" are on her SIM card only right? Yet for some reason all AOSP and CM and AOKP
ROMs can't read those contacts...just the ones on the Google account
So best way is, return to stock as said above...i am sure all contacts are now available again, then sync them all to Google by just copying to Google account and flash back to your AOSP ROM and you are done
Was shocked the first time I rooted my desire z and missing some contacts too...but with time I got it why they where missing xD (still don't know why AOSP can't read SIM card contacts though)

If you login to my-tmobile (assuming she was backing up to t-mo) go to mobile life-> contacts, then you can do an export of all the contacts that are there to something like VCF and then import to the phone. If they're out there, they're certainly not lost!
Success! Thanks everyone for the information and advice. You were all very helpful.
What I ended up doing was reverting back to a stock ROM, had T-Mobile automatically restore the contacts and exported them. Then simply imported them once back on AOSP. No biggy. :]
Thanks again! You can consider this thread solved!
I got MIX 2s from HK with MIUI Global Stable 9.5.4.0 installed. Few troubles so far, pretty annoying tho. Phone came with ugly MI dialer/contact viewer and I cannot make it sync contacts on the phone with Office365 Outlook contacts. It seems to work from Outlook to the phone, but not the other way around. I tried Gmail, Outlook, Edison and few others. I tried Google contacts app, same story. Installed Google contacts sync app… still the same.
I used to have all previous phones do sync out of the box and it’s very strange that this phone cannot do that.
How it works on Chinese MIUI? Anyone has the same problem? I will flash Chinese ROM over, because it’s not going to work for me, I have over 1200 contacts and I have to manage them daily. I also phone sync contacts with Facebook photos.

It seems to be. I tried all MIMIX2s ROMs i could find... Chinese dev/stable, Global 18, Global 5, eu.xiaomi. All pretty much the same: small icons, tiny fonts, very bad notification, unstable brightness control. Not surprise as it all based on MIUI. This is my first Xiaomi device and i would say, i just hate MIUI, period.
Android P Beta ROM was awesome and all contact sync worked fine, it's way faster than MIUI original, but heavier battery drain. Problem is it keeps shutting the phone off here and there and it needs to be powered up. Will try it again with the different launcher next week. in addition to all bugs listed already, i found that latest Instagram app will crash on sign in, older version of app is fine

Yes, I had this problem with syncing google contacts on the China Rom. You need to go into the permissions and allow access to modify contacts for anything to do with Office365. Can post screenshots if that helps.

Sorry im now on global ROM which has a slighly different permission system.
On China rom - in Settings -> All Apps find Outlook or anthing related like Office 365 etc.
Click on each app and click on permissions - then find contact sync or similar and turn on the setting.

Quick update.... Fixed. I just got MIUI V9.5.19.0 and sync works fine both ways. I guess it was something Xiaomi new about
