HTC Hero :: Repeat Contacts Very Time A New Phone Sync Comes Out / Way Around This?

Apr 21, 2010

How come every time I download a new version of HTC Sync, the first time I sync the program updates both phone and PC with contacts and calendar items that are already on both? Then I have to go in and delete all the repeats. This is so frustrating! This happens every time. Is there a way around this?

HTC Hero :: Fix For Facebook Sync With Phone Contacts

Jul 2, 2010

After the update to Android 2.1 on my HTC Hero, like many other people, I had problems syncing my phone contacts to my facebook contacts. The process com.htc.bgp constantly force closed, and no linking could be made or is some cases only a part of the facebook contacts were synced. Different fixes has been suggested by users online but none of them worked. But after a lot of trying, a combination of these fixes finally solved the problem for me. Now all my facebook contacts are available to link to my phone contacts. Here's what I did and what you can try:
1. On your computer, go to Facebook Account Application settings. Remove applications Facebook for Android and HTC Sense. Log out of Facebook.

2. On your phone, remove any all Facebook programs or widgets you might have installed.

3. Go to Settings Accounts and delete your Facebook for HTC Sense account. The settings Background data should be checked and Auto-sync unchecked.

4. Go to Settings Applications Manage applications. Enter each of the following applications and click Clear data:
a. Calender
b. Calender Storage
c. com.htc.socialnetwork.accountmanager
d. com.htc.socialnetwork.provider
e. Facebook for HTC Snese
f. Gmail
g. Gmail Storage
h. My Uploads
i. PC Synchronization

5. Restart your phone.

6. Connect to the internet.

7. Start the Photos program

8. At the bottom there should be a facebook icon. Click it and log in to your facebook account.

9. Let all the contacts download.

10. Go to your contacts (People), and now your old Facebook connections should slowly start to appear, and you should be able to link the contacts to your facebook contacts. It might take a while but have patience!

Perhaps one or a few of these steps are not necessary, but at least its what worked for me and hopefully it will help some of you.

HTC Hero :: Way To Sync Google Calendar And Contacts To The Phone

Oct 18, 2009

Is there a way to sync Google calendar and contacts to the phone calendar and contacts?

I deleted all my outlook entries (calendar and contacts) from the phone because it was creating duplicates. Now, I am syncing my Hero with my Lotus Notes calendar at work, as well with my Google calendar. I can see all appointments on my phone. However, I can't see Lotus appointments on my Google account, neither my Google calendar entries on my Lotus Notes.

How can I sync them all? If I import my Google entries into Lotus, it will create duplicates in the Phone and vice-versa.

I don't see any advantages for Google entries to be separated from my other entries. I have one list of contacts and that list should be the same across all programs I use. The same for calendars (actually it is useful to have multiple calendars, as long as no duplicates exists).

That, for me, is the biggest drawback of the HTC Hero. My Moto Q was a lot worse phone than the Hero, but the calendar and contacts sync was much better.

HTC Hero :: Google Contacts Deleted From Phone On Sync

Aug 10, 2010

I'm having a real problem with my phone. My contacts are set up to sync with google which works fine. All my contacts are Google contacts. However, if I create a new contact (setting it as a Google contact), then when it syncs with Google, rather than creating the contact in my GMail account it wipes the contact from my phone.I can't be the only person experiencing this, is there a solution?

How To Repeat Alarm For Between 1 To 60 Days At A Particular Time

Sep 15, 2011

I have to repeat alarm for between 1 day to 60 days. For example, the user can be able to repeat alarm after every 5 days, 10 days or 60 days (maximum).

Option1 ( Implemented Code

alarmmanager.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, System.currentTimeMillis()+ (durationInDays * 24 * 3600 * 1000), (durationInDays * 24 * 3600 * 1000), pIntent);

Note: But it is working fine but it supports maximum 10 days(appx) repeating only after that "(durationInDays * 24 * 3600 * 1000)" it goes into -ve value so, I am unable to set maximum 60 days alarm repeatedly. AlarmManager class only supports a long value for choosing the interval between the execution of the pending intent.

Is there any other option to set repeat alarm for the no of days ?

Option 2 ( Implemented Code:

Date futureDate = new Date(new Date().getTime() + (86400000 * durationInDays));
Date dateInterval = new Date(86400000 * durationInDays);
am.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, futureDate.getTime(), dateInterval.getTime(), pendingIntent);

Note: We set repeating alarm maximum every 24 days but when i give (durationInDays = 25; // in Days) then it takes -ve values.

Can I set repeating alarm with Calender?

HTC Hero :: Google Sync Deleted Contacts Created On The Phone

Nov 22, 2010

I've lived with this problem long enough and searched for solutions to no avail, I hope someone here can help.

1. I create a new contact on my phone and select my googlemail.com when asked "create contact under account"?
2. I save the newly added contact details
3. I then synchronise the phone
4. The newly created account gets deleted from the phone.

For clarification I'm not saving it to the SIM nor to the phone memory, just to my googlemail account.I've read elsewhere that there might be a problem since google added gmail.com accounts in the UK. I now have 2 google accounts (gmail and googlemail) but in practice both seem identical, if I try to sign in to my googlemail account I end up in my gmail account so I doubt if this is the issue. I've tried deleting my googlemail account from my phone with the intention of replacing it with my new gmail account but I get the message that other applications rely on this account and that the only way to remove the account is to do a factory reset. If I create contacts in my gmail account off-line and synchronise my phone then these contacts appear on my phone as expected. It seems strange that this application should delete a newly added contact on the phone but that is exactly what happens. I know I'm not the only one whose experienced this but I've never seen a conclusive resolution, anyone here know how to solve this?

Motorola Droid X :: Automatically Sync Facebook Contacts With Phone Contacts?

Sep 7, 2010

Just wondering if there is an app or a procedure to get your facebook contacts to automatically sync with your phones contacts as well as your google contacts. For instance if you add someone as a friend on facebook and they have their email and phone number filled out in their profile, that information would automatically be added to your phone. Is there a way to do that?

HTC Hero :: HTC Hero Google Contacts Sync Broken

Jan 11, 2010

Can any one help with the following problem. I'd really appreciate it. This phone, as promising as it is, keeps giving me head-aches.On my HTC Hero all my contacts (they are all "Google" contacts) are duplicate. I deleted all contacts from GMail (they were NOT duplicate on GMail), have seen my HTC resyncing my contacts various times since (while in the Settings->Data Sync->Google Menu), but all 2000+ contacts remain in my phone.Obviously, I'm just trying to delete duplicates (why they suddenly appeared I do not know), but at the moment my phone seem not to sync at all.Can any one tell me how to delete ALL Contacts from my phone and then resync (after I reimport my GMail contacts)? Is there no other way to select each of my almost 3000 contacts manually to delete?

HTC Hero : How To NOT Sync All Contacts?

Nov 3, 2009

At Google's help forum here, it states the following: All Contacts vs My Contacts on iPhone - Google Mobile Help 3) Google only syncs My Contacts because those are the contacts you've manually added to your contact list. If you look at your All Contacts, you'll see that some of those email addresses haven't been added to My Contacts.

HTC Hero :: How To Sync Contacts?

Oct 1, 2009

I'm not that impressed with the HTC Sync (it's slow and there's no bluetooth). I've read a little bit about sync'ing with Google, but I'm not clear on a couple of things:
1) Will it require an app for the Hero to sync them 'live'.
2) What is 'cloud' - the stuff I've read keeps mentioning it.
3) I've found Google Calendar Sync, but how would I sync my contacts? The only thing I've found that will sync all of outlook is a Google Sync Premiere programme that is costly and aimed at businesses.

Samsung Captivate :: Sync Phone Book All The Time?

Oct 28, 2010

For some reason, while I'm at home, on wifi, everytime I wake my phone up (not sure if it's doing it while it sleeps or not, but battery has gotten worse, so probably) the 3g comes on for about 15 seconds. I see the grey sync arrows come on in the top left. When I pull down the window shade, it pops up a little notification saying something like "phone book contacts are up to date..." or something like that. But it always activates 3g even when I'm on wifi. I even disabled background data and auto-sync and it still did it after I woke it up. Didn't receive my gmail while those were disabled but still tried to sync my phone book with something. Sometimes I can watch it sync the phone book 5 or 6 times in a couple of minute time frame and sometimes I can watch for 10 minutes and it won't sync once...

HTC Hero :: Sync Outlook Contacts

Mar 6, 2010

I'm using HTC Sync to sync my Outlook contacts to my Hero... The contacts sync as expected but everytime I perform the sync the time on my Hero is set 30mins forward which would correspond with the time in the eastern states of Australia. I've checked the timezones on my PC & Hero and they are set correctly. I've scoured the net for fixes but haven't found a fix for this annoying issue. I did discover that in a previous version of HTC Sync you could set the timezone within HTC Sync during the installation if it detected a mismatch, but I wasn't presented with the option to set it to get it's time from the PC...

HTC Hero :: Sync Gmail Contacts?

Sep 15, 2009

I noticed that the Family / Friends / Colleagues groups on Google (the default, unchangeable groups there) aren't synced with my Hero. As a work-around I've created 2 new groups, "My Family" and "My Friends", but this is messy (I end up with both "Family" AND "My Family" on gmail, but just "My Family" on my Hero). Is there any way to sync those basic 3 groups?

HTC Hero :: Failed To Sync Contacts With PC

May 5, 2010

I need some guidence please. I've been on a mission to sync my contacts to my PC and have failed. I understand the GMail Sync is there for me also, well i see i have apparently established an account when i first got the phone. The settings show it does sync with Google (show's last sync time stamp etc) but how do i view my account if i don't remember sign-in/password? I think i would need to start a new one (GMail Account) and this time save the log-in data.Two questions:

1. Can i retrieve from my phone the original Gmail info that is currently there?

2. If i need to create a new account; how to change it in the phone

In my search for contact back-ups i stumbled upon the Microsoft My Phone, has anyone had any experience with this?

Sprint HTC Hero :: Facebook Sync With Contacts Gone

Oct 24, 2009

anyone experience this within the last hour or so?I noticed that i had to sign back into my account on "Social Networking" in settings, but nothing is syncing back up. they are all still sync'd (if you go into a contact on the computer, there is a "note" in the "notes" section showing the link), but nothing is showing up. I'm guessing eventually it will download everything again and I just need to give it time, and I'm also sure it's a Facebook issue thing, since they just updated and tweaked their UI, but i was curious if anyone else noticed this.

HTC Hero :: HTC Sync Deleting Outlook Contacts

Jan 20, 2010

I got HTC Sync set-up to sync up my outlook calendar and contacts. ran it through, and other than truncating address fields to 25 chars, it all worked fine. But then I ran it again, to cehck it was all ok giong forwards (ie expecting no updates), and it:Deleted 32 of my 200 contacts (seemingly at random) from Outlook - left them on the phone. If I manually replace them oon Outlook then duplicates are created on the phone on next sync. Altered 3 recurring appointments (birthdays, 3 out of about 40 in my calendar) in Outlook so that instead of running from midnight to midnight (ie all day events) they run from 23:00 to 23:00, and hence show up over two days. Claimed to have updated a handful more contacts, though I can't see what may have changed. how to avoid? Number 2 is particularly odd. I'm guessing it's something to do with daylight saving, but why only 3 of 40? I've checked the settings against other non-affected appointments, and can see no difference!

I want to play with some 2.1 roms so I need to get these synced to gmail so I dont loose them again. i can not get it to sync. I get :I have tried setting auto sync and still have an issue.
