I was trying to copy a link from my email to put it into a web page. Has anyone figured out how to copy and paste? And how do I import my google calendar to the tablet?

I am on CM6.1B4 and I have calender and contact syncing working. I did the gapps fix which installs apks for the syncing of the contacts and calender.

go into contacts and add a "corporate email" account. add your gmail account credentials. finish the account setup and make sure there's a box that asks if you want to sync calendar, make sure its checked. wait about 5 min after the dialogue and you should be set.
at least that's what I did to get my calendar and my contacts sync'd.
good luck.

This only syncs your default Google calendar -- and some of my entries are missing. My other Google calendars have never appeared. (I'm on Google Apps.) Contacts do work this way.

Yeah that is what I was doing and I get nothing! I just tried again and it highlights but then I get nothing! stange, very very strange!
Did you do this on a computer or the tablet itself? I am not finding how to enter corp account on the tablet!

Go to Contacts, then Accounts on the menu, then Add Account, then choose Corporate. Enter your gmail credentials, then on the next page enter /[email protected] and m.google.com as your login info (if it's not already entered for you). It'll take a while for the contacts and calendar stuff to sync.
I set this up without using corporate email, and I have multiple google calenders syncing. I'm not on google apps, just regular google account.

What ROM are you using?
I have never seen an option to set up a Gmail account, using Google Contacts under TNTLite. When you first set up the tablet, and it sets up your default Google account, it sets up mail, but never gives the option for contacts/calendar. (This goes for both a Gmail account and a Google Apps account.) If I look at my accounts via the Gmail app, the Sync Management page shows only Mail as a sync option, with no Calendar/Contacts options.
On my Nexus One, when you go to add an account under Contacts, "Google" is an option along with Corporate (and Twitter and Facebook, if you have those installed). But, on the tablet, under TNTLite, there is no option to add a Google account, only Corporate and the others.
I've mentioned this a bunch of times, hoping that someone with more knowledge would take some time to figure out why--is it because TNTLite installs Gmail 2.3 as the default, and not 2.2? What is it about the account setup that only creates a link between a Gmail account and Mail, leaving Contacts and Calendar out in the cold? And how come when adding a new account you have no option to add a new Gmail account, like on vanilla Froyo?

There are apks, that need to be installed to sync calenders and contacts for non coporate I believe, as it was not in my syncing options until I installed these. They are GoogleCalenderSyncAdaptoer.apk, GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk

I am using CM6.1B4 for the ROM, I had the same issue under this rom where I could not add another google account or calenders/contacts. I followed this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842590) and I was able to get it to work where I have multiple gmails accounts, and can sync contact and multiple calenders. At first when following that thread it killed my rom, so I had to clear cache/data, reinstall rom, and then all was fine. I removed the an Email.apk(?) and that got rid of the corporate email account since I don't use one. I beleive you can just install the apk's from that thread to get things to work, the *SyncAdaptoer.apk's. I have gmail 2.3 so I don't think that is the issue. Not sure what apk controls being able to add multiple gmail accounts since I think that always worked for me, although I remember messing with things and not having that ability anymore. Hope this helps.

I've tried multiple times to just install the SyncAdapter.apk files, and always get Application Not Installed. Maybe there's a certain procedure to follow? (install them after wiping data, and before doing the Google Account set up?)
I tinkered with getting calendar to sync with my Google calendar last night. I was successful in getting "Touch Calendar" from the market to sync, but not the Calendar that is included with TNT Lite 2.0.2.
Process: I went to the Contacts App and added a second email account (same as the first). By default, it labeled it as a "Corporate Account". The original one was labeled as "local only" or some such. In the wizard that takes you through creating the account, there are checkboxes for Sync Email and Sync Calendar. They are at the bottom of the page, so make sure you scroll down every page in the wizard or you might miss them. I don't believe Calendar is checked by default.
I don't particularly like the "Touch Calendar" app, but it is functional. If anyone else has a Calendar App that is working - please let me know about it. I don't know what Roebeet has included with TNT Lite 2.0.2., but that one is not working for me. It looks like the TapNTap calendar to me.
Talk2Rider--
The calendar in TNTLite 2.02 is the default TNT Calendar, not the Google Calendar (Roebeet went back to the default TNT Calendar in his TNTLite Supplements). You're seeing your Google calendar stuff in Touch Calendar because that's keying off the Corporate account that you set up, while TNT Calendar doesn't use that.
The Corporate account set up doesn't help those of us who are trying to get multiple calendars to sync in the Google Calendar app. The need exists to be able to add another Google account (like you can in vanilla Froyo), not doing a workaround of a Google account as a Corporate account.

These are system apk's so just drop them into the /system/app folder and reboot. But I didn't do that, I installed the whole package from that link I posted, and had problems at first where it hosed everything for me, but after clear data/cache, reinstall rom on top (doesn't wipe out these apks) everything was working.

Tried it (putting just the *SyncAdapter.apk files in /system/app, and rebooting), then deleted my existing Google Apps account, rebooted, but I still don't get the option to sync calendar/contacts as a Google account, and no ability in Contacts to add a Google Account.
I'm guessing if I install the entire TNT Keyboard/Gapps update.zip, then wipe data and then reinstall TNTLite 2.0, it might work. Just trying to decide whether I want to go through all of that.

Ya, I'm not familiar enough of the system apks to know if there was something else that needed to be done to get this to work. I know TnT light doesn't have the Gapp versions of the contact and calender....does it have the gmail.apk already? Best might be to install it all instead of trying to figure out what is going on. You can always use CWM to backup the system and if it doesn't work restore it back.
I don't want to be changing my system and want it stable, but I suspect I will be doing a lot of installing diff roms and wiping for a while till the roms get more stable and feature rich.

TNTLite 2.0 has the Gmail, Google Contacts, and Google Calendar apks. It's only the 2.02 supplemental that replaces contacts and calendar apps with the original TNT installed apps.
I made a half-hearted stab at installing the GApps stuff, then "reinstalling" TNTLite 2.0, but didn't wipe my user data. No change on the calendar/contacts stuff, and this resulted in messed up versions of Maps, Street View, and YouTube, which I was able to salvage through Titanium Backup uninstalls and then reinstalling from the Market. But I imagine getting the Gapps stuff truly working may require a full wipe, probably back to Vanilla TNT, and then installing Gapps first followed by TNTLite. I'm just not in the mood quite yet to go that far.
So, if anyone out there can figure out a way to get full Google account sync access working in TNTLite without having to start over, you'll get a gold star!
I don't see my gmail accounts in the messaging app. When i try to add them through the messaging app I get a message that the account already exists. I've tried deleting them and reinstall them through the messaging app but the gmail account still isn't there.
Anyone have any ideas?
Havn't ever used the mesaging app, but sorta seems like extra steps if you could just use the Gmail app itself?
Yeah, I would agree. The Gmail app was made to be used for just Gmail.
I know it seems counter intuitive to use two different apps, if you have several mail accounts like I do, but I actually like having my Gmail on it's own.
Hopefully i am not interpreting the OP incorrectly.
But for me to see my gmail account in the messaging app, I had to add it as an "Email" type account and not a "Google" account.
Menu > Accounts > Add Account > Email > Enter Gmail email address and leave automatically configure account checked. Follow the on screen prompts to complete setup.

It is kinda redundant, but it does work for the messaging app and Universal inbox.
kirkgbr - thanks for the info, that worked.
JRW 28 and jimbridgman - while I don't dislike the gmail app, I like having an universal inbox where I can see all my accounts (gmail and non-gmail) in one place.
Hi everyone!
I just successfully rooted my HTC Sensation 4G and installed cynogenmod (HyperSensation-CM7.1-v1.2).
Everything seems fine so far, but I'm confused about the default included 'email' app. Is this the google-made gmail program or something different? I expected once I set up my 'account' upon initial startup, clicking on this e-mail app would 'just work' and pull up my emails, but instead it started asking me for email account details.
Should I download 'gmail' from the market? Is that what I really want?
Also, I'd like the swype-like functionality back on this keyboard, but don't know the best way to get that back. Any help would be appreciated, as I can't post to the cynogenmod thread yet.
Thanks!
Most roms have 2 Email Apps, one is Gmail, the other is Email.
If you use Gmail for your email address (i.e. xxxx.gmail.com), then you should use the Gmail app which some Roms include and can easily be downloaded from Android Market.
If you use a pop email account, like yahoo or hotmail, then for those you don't use the Gmail app, but can use the other Email app. You can also download other Email apps from the Market, like K9 or Enhanced Email, for this purpose too.
Excellent, actually once I started 'restoring' from my google account, it downloaded gmail for me automatically and that's working like I expected. Thanks for the help.
Any idea on the swype keypad functionality?
