Touchdown MIGRATED my outlook contacts to the stock Contats app

Just for giggles, I Started my stock contacts app and I see that Touchdown imported, or something imported all of my outlook contacts to it. :confused:

I wonder why that happened?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] it2steve:
****EDIT (sorry, just saw you didn't have gmail :( , my fault)

Does Touchdown only work with Exchange? though? If not, I may look into it.

HOWEVER, when I got my first Android phone this was a necessity for me as well (non-exchange). I found CompanionLink and I think I paid $20 or so but it's worth it. It's sync's my outlook to gmail then down to my phone and visa versa. It's the only thing I've found that seems pretty reliable. of course the phone will sync real time to gmail and then companionlink will sync to your pc either on demand or a set schedule (like I have mine set every hour). Either way, it beats plugging in the phone and manually sync'ing like the good ol days :)

Read the link below and and say take that iphone users....just thought of sharing something silly......or is it????????

http://www.droid-life.com/2011/01/1...android-users-are-as-current-as-iphone-users/
[Vibrant General] timmay2t:
The reason they did the 4.X is because there is minimal changes between them. Mostly jailbreak blocks lol. Whereas 2.1/2.2/2.3 are major changes to speed, battery, and whatnot. So that article is a little off, i'm assuming because they really don't know any better.
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
^ basically what he said.

iOS brings minor updates, as he said to block jailbreaking and big bugs, but every MAJOR update for them is ALWAYS the first number.

like if they have a new major update, it will go from 4.x to 5.x

thats same for Android, but android doesn't block rooting with every update that comes out, and fixes some needed things that people notice.
[Vibrant General] funeralthirst:
while that does make sense, i can't help but remember everyone i know with an iphone 3g saying 4.x made their phone completely useless. so do they take into account the people who reverted their 3g's or updated then dropped the phone for a 3gs or 4? cause conversely, my g1 is running froyo just fine, though it appears 2.3 will never happen on it.
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
Apple, i THINK said iphone 3g and lower wouldn't get a 4.0 update because it was unstable, but after people jailbreaking and trying, it worked perfectly fine.

but you will notice a incredible lag in the iphone 3g if you force and try to install the version that apple wouldn't release, i THINK its 4.0, but i haven't turned my iphone 4 on in months since i got a android lol.
[Vibrant General] funeralthirst:
it was either the 3g or 3gs that got ios4 as a regular update and it made the phone miserably unusable. they tried to rectify it with updates, but i don't know if they fixed it because everyone i know who had one got rid of it for a new phone. and even with the ios 4 update they couldn't 'multitask'.

*edit* it was 3g: http://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2010/07...s-reports-of-problems-with-ios4-on-iphone-3g/
[Vibrant General] west-siiiyyde:
^^ Comments above are so true. I was formerly an iPhone fanboy till the 4.xx mess. I enjoyed having the jailbreak for the customizations and even dual booting it into Android too, and tons of other cool stuff. But once the ceiling caved in for all that, the iPhone lost its magic for me.

Even though everyone seems mad at Samsung-- gotta say its nice that there's teams of organized user/devs creating all sorts of mods. We are better off with 5+ choices of well-supported custom froyo distributions along with teams working on Sense, Gingerbread, Muiu, etc, then we would be with a compulsory non-customizable upgrade path designed to discourage modders.

1. Being able to use the USB port to connect to the P.C. and being able to transfer information.

2. Gingerbread since Elocity is stating that Honeycomb is out for the A7 due to multitouch "This is a downer)

3. Better support from Elocity like a forum to talk about our issues to the support group since no one wants to respond to phone calls

4. This Tablet has great Hardware and the only one who is making a difference is Dexter who Elocity should owe great gratitude since he has spent numerous hours making it a better device.

5. Google to add tablet support to the market place

6. Nvidia to step up to the plate and help Google with getting updates out to the tablet users.

Please post anything else you would like to see with this tablet in the future updates so that Elocity will read it here since they won't respond to any calls.

[A7 General] tjc2k4:
I would like to see them release the kernel source / patches. They're obligated to by the GPL, but they've flat out ignored all my questions about it.

Some people have reported that they were told that an nVidia contract prevents releasing it, but that can't be true. Maybe some specific nVidia drivers need to be kept closed but not the Linux Kernel.
[A7 General] rdjack21:
Other than what has already been asked for I would like to see either the specs for the dock connection or some type of powered speakers that you could just drop our device into. I really think our device would make a really nice multimedia station.
[A7 General] RojasTKD:
I do think we will see a dock down the line. I believe it will share the same dock that will eventually be available for their new A7.x line (assuming that comes to fruition).

As for speakers... I personally doubt you'll see something from eLocity. Maybe a jack built into the dock. You could always just plug you computer speakers into the A7's audio jack.
[A7 General] johng75:
OHH i like that... maybe some kind of app that turns the screen into a radio/mp3/alarm clock function that would also charge it... that could be leading to something...

Mouse

Unless I'm doing something wrong, I cannot get a mouse cursor to show up when I use a mouse. Because the tablet has hdmi capability I would love to see a mouse cursor to show up on the screen to use it to navigate via bluetooth on the big tv :)

XBOX 360 PC Controller

There is a mod under the "Android Development" section that expands on Dexter's 1.1 mod. It allows for an XBOX 360 controller to be used. It works great on emulators. I am also able to move through icons, open programs, and open the search tab with the controller. If you had a wireless USB reciever for PC to use a 360 controller, then you could conceivably hook it up to the TV via HDMI and controll it from afar with a wireless 360 controller. Hope that helps!
[A7 General] masterfred:
We should focus on getting honeycomb working on the tablet ... I'm sure we can bypass that multitouch thing.
[A7 General] rspray:
I agree, besides the Google Maps tilt function and Fruit Ninja, I didn't see anything in their demo today that screemed "hardware must have multi-touch"
[A7 General] 5[Strogino]:
No kernel source -> no roms -> no other things
[A7 General] masterfred:
We should then ask eLocity to give us what we need ... will help their sells and then try to port Honeycomb ...
[A7 General] 5[Strogino]:
Unfortunately, their tech-support didn't answer any questions. I read some topics - a lot of people did not receive anything from them.
[A7 General] masterfred:
It's pretty simple ... Dexter for exemple should ask with Mods permission, the right to access sources or eLocity shall remove XDA from their web site in the support page (http://www.elocitynow.com/support.shtml).

It's pretty stupid they rely on a community without providing the proper tools.

We should also ask for a buy back program so we can upgrade those 3-4 months tablet in a useless form for the new A7 that will run Honeycomb ...

The tablet was still a 300-350$ investment that led to ... nothing ...
[A7 General] sdialect31:
I 100% agree, this has been like a $300 beta device, no matter how nice it is to have a Tegra powered tablet, if it can't run without major modding we've been hosed. I've managed to get regular Android Market(not new one) running on top of the 2nd official ROM by using Root Explorer to copy a ton of files to the /system/app folder...still not excited though.

Stream TV needs to setup an exchange program for the customers who purchased these headache tablets that forced us to become part-time programmers and get us at the least into the low-end new A7.x tablet. Maybe for difference in retail and with free shipping of new tablet and return shipping of old unreliable tablet(unless they're as tired of it as general public).
[A7 General] sdialect31:
I just shared my point of view in a somewhat calmer manner to Stream TV support, not sure they'll see it or not but it's out there. I recommend all express their concerns and wishes on their site not just here.
[A7 General] dburckh:
I sent them a support e-mail about running Asphalt 5. I got a response. I'm not sure how much stock to put in it, but at least it is a response.

Is it possible that we may get some better service? I'm hoping so!
[A7 General] sdialect31:
This is the "canned" or auto responder everyone is getting now, I'm waiting for them to hand out some "live" solutions. It wouldn't kill 'em to update the "free apps for your A7" page either.
[A7 General] RojasTKD:
Yeah, I sent then my fourth e-mail last night and finally got something back. Even though it was with auto-response. Funny things is I got the same auto response four times in roughly an hour time span.
[A7 General] I<3Android:
Weird, I emailed them looking into reciving a promo a7 before i bought mine. They emailed me back in less then a few hours and chatted up a bit.

Hey All,

Is there and Android native app that syncs your exchange calendar with your google calendar...

Like Moxier, Touchdown, etc. are all fine, but they have their own calendars - I just want one calendar with everything (in this case, my google calendar)...

Yeah, I know there are desktop apps, but these are useless if you're on the road for weeks and only carrying your beloved Android phone...

Thanks!
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] k1sr:
Thought I'd answer my own question since no one else could... That way, if anyone else wants an answer to the same question, here it is...

Yes - 2.2 gives you exchange calendar sync, so all your appointments appear on the one android calendar. Nice - no need for Moxier, Touchdown or anything, and I only have to look at one calendar to find out my schedule, not 3...

Phone: Tmobile Hd2

Base Rom: Energy dec 30 I think

radio: 2.12

magldr: latest

clockwork mod: latest

NAND rom: MDJ cyanogen mod 7 ver. 2.5 gingerbread

Hi, I've tried basically everything. Tried everything I could find for variations for apn settings,

turning on and off data, turning on and off airplane mode, turning on 2g only, hard reset, reflashing the zip rom (works fine when I go back to last rom) and my data worked for a minute when I reflashed the zip rom. It no longer works. I scoured xda and could find nothing!

Anybody have this problem/know a fix for it? Greatly appreciate the help, I like the rom a lot, so I don't want to have to go back to the old one!

*****

Every now and then it seems it will let me load google, and then it won't let me load any other pages. It displays that 3g is up,

but as I said, its not working.

Could it be my radio?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jose makalolot:
How can you have energy as base rom and you are using magldr?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Wanderer_Zero:
No idea; when I boot it shows the Energy logo, so I'm assuming its my base rom.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
The very first splash screen you see is not touched by Magldr installation, so it remains as it was. As for your WM ROM, it's gone. Completely.

Anyway, check your APN settings against the settings found on this page...

http://www.unlocks.co.uk/gprs_settings.php

Maybe there is a discrepancy?

As for letting you load Google every now and then, I think that's probably a cached version of the page. Whenever I've had data problems, I've always ignored my home page and tried a different page to see if I do actually have a data connection. I usually just click one of the links at the top of Google (Images/News etc..)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Wanderer_Zero:
Tried the APN, can't get it to work, period. Tried the apn, tried turning on and off data, on and off for airplane mode, resetting, and im not sure what else. Do I need to clear my cache and data and reflash? can anything else possibly be the problem? could it be that I forgot to flash DAF before clockwork mod?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
I doubt that CWM has anything to do with this. It really does sound like the APN settings in the ROM you installed are just wrong. Did you actually check against the ones on the page I linked you?

Other than that, I can only suggest trying a different ROM. Clearing data out before flashing is irrelevant, as flashing will itself clear everything like that.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Wanderer_Zero:
I manually re-entered all the apn data MULTIPLE times. And tried several variations; and for that link you sent me, Operator: - T-Mobile (Internet)

GPRS APN: - internet2.voicestream.com

Username: - {blank}

Password: - {blank}

DNS: - 216.155.175.105, 216.155.175.106

thats what it tells me for tmobile data, and I cannot find anywhere in apn settings that say's dns, which makes it all the more confusing.

I tried the settings that another person posted that worked fine on the last rom I was on; wifi ironically works (it didn't on my last rom) and now my data doesnt work.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
If you've tried the exact same settings on 2 different ROMs and it works on one but not the other, then I'm afraid the only answer is that there's a problem with the ROM. You could search the thread where you got the ROM from, and ask in there if it's not already answered. The only other alternative is to give up with that ROM and try a different one.

Sorry mate, but that's all I can suggest.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] madbi:
Had same issue

Hi, I had the same issue when I updated, using CWM, from MDJ's v. 2.3 to v. 2.5

I spent almost a day to understand that probably during the flash something went wrong and at the end I decided to flash the non-CWM rom, and magically all my connections started to work again.

( I did some debugging of the problem because I couldn't even get root (before the update everything was fine) and I had to manually fix permission and at the end I discovered that busybox was broken ( continuous seg faults) )
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
Just so it's clear, this issue can't be related to CWM. CWM is something that you can boot into, instead of Android, but it does absolutely nothing - doesn't even run - when you boot into Android. The only thing I can think that may be relevant is that I know a ROM has to be made "ready" for CWM. Maybe something in that process is causing a problem. You guys really should make the ROM devs aware of this, if you haven't already, in order to stop the problem.
