i checked both websites you mentioned, they are paid products, the and the 2nd one doesn't do what the topic is about.

all it does is export everything to CSV file which is not the intent of this topic

the topic is about keeping everything in Sync on a Daily / Hourly basis

you can't expect people to be exporting CSV file left and right to import it back every day or every hour

Hi all...

Just wondering, did some seearches on the internet, but couldn't find any working syncs between Lotus Notes and Android phone.

I found couple of solutions, but it includes uploading to google calendar and then to Android phone, but can't do this, it is agains't company's policy.

Any help would be appreciated.

hi

I am thinkig of purchasing nexus s, however I have a question.

I use MS outlook for calendar and contacts heavily. Will it be possible to sync nexus s with microsoft outlook's contacts and calendar. This is important for me.

There are some apps above but nexus s is not mentioned.

How will I sync it? Via nexus' original contacts and calendar or will I need special apps. Will I need to install any apps to the PC (other than outlook, which is already installed, of course).

I am just quite new to this site. And new to the android world.. nexus s will be my first. Currently I am using i780 and the thing I like most or only in this phone is I really sync it very easily, by just connecting it to usb. It will be great if I can find similar way in my future nexus s.

I prefer free. But please write your comments of companionlink or other SW, your comments, maybe a brief review. A video, if available, will be great...

Thanks.

HI:

I use Outlook to manage my calendar and contacts and E-Mails.

What I do is:

For calendar download google calendar zync.

for Contact download go contacts zync.

E-Mail configure gmail in Outlook as IMAP. In G-Mail configure you're account to check the e-mail from hotmail and yahoo.

In this way I have all my information in Outlook zync with google. Google has all the information zync in my phone.

Before I use my phone explorer but I had problems with the calendar and the contacts that you create in Outlook was zync in the phone as local contact not gmail contact.

Android Manager is free and good for Outlook sync

Hello,

I have been using the Android manager (AM) on my sidekick 4G and a rooted HTC HD2, both from TMobile USA. Its from MobileAction.com and you need the Android Manager (server) on the PC with your Outlook, and then install the AM Wifi on the phone. You need to have both the PC and phone on the same LAN/Wifi n/w and then use the IP and a code that shows up on the AM Wifi on the phone and enter them on the AM on the PC. Once both are connected the syncing starts and you can choose what to sync and what not. By the way Outlook displays a warning asking you whether to permit or not an access to the Outlook data files. You have to let the access to sync and I normally allow it for 10 minutes as the first sync takes about that time. Only drawback I saw is that I cannot have multiple sync settings for both my devices as the code and IP address are different for both phones. I have to change them each time. Not sure is it can be done any other way. Anyway, just in case anyone wants to try out AM.
[Epic 4G General] plmiller0905:
I setup facebook and my Buddies Now widget. But for some strange reason , not all my buddies facebook status shows up. When I go through contacts, I can see that they are linked to the appropriate facebook contact. But when I click "Activities" nothing is there.

Like I said this only happened to some of my contacts. I'm assuming it's probably because they haven't updated their facebook status in awhile. Whereas, the the contacts that I can see their facebook status, actually updated theirs a few days ago.

Is anyone else having this issue?
[Epic 4G General] Six-Deuce:
Thats probably what it is, like if they haven't had any activity maybe it just hasn't pulled anything for them yet. I had some issue with this, but it was with all my contacts, since I hadn't "pulled" the friends list on this phone, I just used the one imported from the Evo, but after I readded the friends list from Facebook straight from the Epic menu, it updates fine now.
[Epic 4G General] plmiller0905:
Yeah...I'm hoping that's what it is. I'm going to see if I can get one of them to update their status.

I have an Orange Desire

I installed Modaco's R8 rom a while back - running no problem.

Today I had an OTA notification from HTC ( not Orange ) about an update. Size was around 25mb. I downloaded it OK, but when it tries to install I get a triangle with an exclamation mark in it next to an Android figure.

I also get the message:

E: Failed to verify whole-file signature

E: Signature verification failed

So my questions are:

1) Why can't I install it.

2) Is there a way to install it?

3) Am I missing much if I don't install it.

Thanks all :)

This thing is amazing! Last night I finally let my phone just die and charge fully. This morning I unplugged it and started using it. I actually thought it wasn't reading the battery stats correctly because it was stuck on 100%. So i started using the GPS, Bluetooth etc... Finally after 3:45 up time and 1 hour awake I dropped from 100% to 99%. I am now at 4:15 up time and 1 :15 awake and at 95% and have been listening to a podcast for the past 20 minutes.

SOOOOO much better than the stock battery.

BTW - running Skyraider 3.1 RC3 with Kingx #4 kernel. Set CPU set to 998 max and screen off to 245-384.

[Droid Incredible Accessories] Grizzly420:
I just recieved my battery from Verizon yesterday. Dumb Fedex didnt leave the note on the door so i had to wait an extra three days. Anyway i charged last night bump charged this morning which took 1.5hrs WOW. One phone call and I'm down to 99% already. I will let the battery get down to 5% then recharge and bump charge i will do this two times and see what kinda battery life i get. For the size difference it better be really good. It definetly took away the slim line look. But as much as i use my phone i hate being constantly hooked to a charger.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] mihneagabriel:
After about 2 weeks of letting it die/recharging, it now doesn't even need bump charging if I just leave your phone off to charge the whole time. And mine used to drop really fast the first time but it has stopped doing that now. Goodluck

I received this battery yesterday. I put it in my Incredible and it said there was like %40 of charge. I then turned my phone off and charged it for like an hour or so. I turned the phone on and saw it charged to about 97%. I sat there and watched the battery drain super fast. I mean, 1 minute it would go down like 1-3 %. I was like WTF?? I'm running CM6 and setCPU. Do you all think I need a new kernel? I was going to try a different ROM, but this battery shouldn't be draining this fast should it?

What are the proper step the charging a new battery? Does it really have to be charged for 8-12hrs? If so, I can buy a external charger and let it sit overnight.

Any thoughts?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popepope:
Would appreciate your help on the following issue (amoled display):

- phone doesnt boot up, it is stuck to a screen showing htc in the middle and 4 small triangles in the corners; if I unplug the pc cable it goes to a RUU menu

- no access to recovery or bootloader menus (by holding power + vol down/back)

- installing stock RUUs dont work; there is a 110 error saying that the RUU is not complete (tried 5-6 RUUs, both 2.1 and 2.2). there is a progress bar on the phone's screen that is normally green, but turns red when the radio is being written (as per the install wizard on the pc) and there is another triangle showing up at the end of the progress bar

- fastboot oem boot restarts the phone, but then it gets stuck to the white screen having htc in the middle (like when you start up the phone and after this quietly brilliant shows under htc, for me it doesnt go beyond this initial point)

- fastboot reboot-bootloader restarts the phone into the same 4triangles screen with htc in the middle

- adb doesnt work as it doesnt show my device

- any power + vol down/back combination brings the phone to the 4triangles screen

- if I run the stock RUU after fastboot oem boot (white screen with htc in the middle) there is a menu showing up on top of the white screen showing up the progress (1-bootloader, 2-radio_v2, 3-radio, then system, recovery, user data, etc.); bootloader is updated ok but then it gets stuck when updating radio_v2 and doesnt move further from that point)

- after the RUU install fails, I plug out the pc cable and see the RUU menu; depending on the RUU that I try to flash the hboot version changes up and even goes down after, but the firmware (what the RUU installer "sees" on the phone) and radio (seen on the RUU menu) remains the same: 1.21.405.1 and 4.06xx; the date on the RUU menu also changes depending on the RUU that I try to flash

Any suggestions to get my desire unbricked?

Bit of a background to the problem:

- rooted (unlockr) and was having Paul's r3 rom (2.1)

- updated the radio to 5.10xx

- got into silly restarts when using gps and thought to reflash a new rom and went for Paul's r8

- restarts were there also when using the phone normally

- thought to re-do all the rooting, wiping out everything from the phone, etc; so having r8 as the rom (pre-baked version) I started the rooting process with creating again the goldcard, etc etc

- error message at some point saying partition update fail (following the steps from theunlockr as I did the first time when rooting) and then the phone got to this triangles screen with htc in the middle

- strange though that this screen is different than the one when I first rooted when there was just one big triangle in the middle

Thanks a ton guys!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rolfd:
I've seen a few posts about this screen with the 4 triangles, but never seen the result of any potential fixes, or if it was ever actually fixed.

Just an idea, but it was maybe a bad radio flash if you are saying it started playing up after that? Unfortunately a bad radio flash is fairly terminal so I hope that's not your problem.

Good luck with this one and if you get it fixed then post the result here if you don't mind!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popepope:
Will definitely post the solution when found; so far though nobody has any thoughts around what might be the reason behind this problem and how to get around it. I dropped a few PMs to the people that had this problem in the past and contacted Paul at Modaco, but so far no replies...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamG:
You can fix this with an RUU, I've had the same issue when I unplugged too early after flashing, but you are asking for help in the wrong section.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popepope:
thought that the dev's section is where the best knowledge exists...

about the RUU process, I am trying to flash stock RUU.exe files, but there is a problem when the radio is being written and then I get a 110 error from the RUU install wizard saying that the RUU is incomplete.

for you the RUU install worked smoothly?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teppic74:
If you get a write error during an RUU flash (i.e. while the flashing is taking place, not before) it probably means there's a hardware fault.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popepope:
Could be hardware, but I find it hard to believe as the phone is new and it is network locked, hence I didnt even use it for real, apart from some wifi and gps activities. Besides, the phone worked very well when I first rooted with Paul's r3 and the whole mess with restarts when using gps started after I upgraded the radio to 5.10xx having a 2.1 OS.

I feel that the problem started when I tried to root the phone being on Paul's r8 2.2 OS (tried to root with a 2.1 system and then it got messed up in the process).

I am not saying that it is not hardware as it is a possibility, but still think that it might be a messy software aspect, as if the radio is messed up from a hardware perspective, then at least the system should boot up and then wifi, gps, gsm and the things that are controlled by the radio shouldnt work...but somehow the OS should start-up.

Basically I dont get a write error, it's just that the error comes up when the radio is being written, hence I think that there is something wrong with the radio set-up that I have now on the phone...

Maybe somebody knows how to flash the system from scratch using only fastboot in cmd (having the right zip or img files properly signed), or maybe just the radio to start with.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosraptor:
but to get adb you need to download and install android sdk. look here http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html system dependands download.

install it here are instructions on how to use if you aren't familiar with.

for anything else just use google.

i'm pretty sure that your device is fixable and you can fix it without any service center. cheers and post what ever happens.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popepope:
I know how to use adb commands...pretty new to android and everything, but lately I roamed a lot through various things about it and learned a lot.

The problem is that adb doesnt list my phone when I run adb devices, it shows only when I run fastboot devices, I am sure you know what I mean...hence I cannot push any files to the phone, etc., at least not using adb in cmd.

That's actually the problem, that I cannot get adb to work, I only have fastboot commands. At least the way I see it now the question is how can I work with the phone to fix it just by having fastboot access in cmd.

I searched quite a lot various forums, etc, but I never came across a solution that will get things going just by having fastboot in cmd (without adb working). Maybe somebody here will come up with some magic trick...

thanks anyways, keeping the hope alive! :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosraptor:
sorry idf i don't underdstand, but if you have fastboot working in your device and sdcard also then you should be able to push files to device via fastboot making as clean installs as possible.so if your device is picked up by command line type fastboot to see command list. i'am a bit comfused. pretty sure you should fix it through fastboot though.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popepope:
right, I can run 2 things with fastboot in cmd: (name of the files just an example)

1. fastboot update update.zip

here I get that the archive doesnt contain android-info.txt or android-product.txt

2. fastboot flash update.img

here i get signature verify fail

for example, fastboot erase radio says FAILED, remote: not allowed

there are some fastboot commands related to the kernel and some others, but dont know how to make use of them for my problem.

sd card is accesible for sure and it is a goldcard.

I saw some linux/ubuntu methods to simulate adb usage in cmd, but I dont think it will work...will try to find an ubuntu image and mount it under windows, but dont have time now...

anyways, thanks to everybody for the suggestions and interest, maybe we'll crack it some day
