Samsung Moment :: Data Synchronization - Auto-Sync
Dec 2, 2009Originally, when I got my Moment, I had it set up to Auto-Sync my Gmail, Contacts and Calendar. I noticed (especially when managing contacts on my phone) that when I made any changes to a contact, the auto-sync would begin, in turn, freezing up the whole contact app/module. It would freeze for about 30 seconds until the sync was complete.
This would also happen with the Gmail app. So I turned off auto-sync a couple weeks ago, and every time I go into Gmail, I just go to Menu, Refresh. But it's a pain when I get a call saying, "Hey, did you get my email?". So I'm thinking of using IMAP for Gmail now, but I'd rather find out if anyone else is having this issue, or if there's a workaround.
HTC Desire :: Synchronization Deletes Contacts?
Jun 3, 2010If i create a new contact and then I synchronize my contact with my Gmail account (which actually doesn't contains any contact) I supposed to have the new contact also on my Gmail account, but that's not the case. The synchronization DELETES my contact on the phone. What's the problem? Am I doing something wrong?
HTC Desire :: Contacts Synchronization - How It Really Works?
Jul 20, 2010I have 3 accounts in my HTC Desire. Gmail (or should I call this Google?) - the automatically saved emails that GMAIL keeps when you write to a person.
Phone - which are the phone numbers saved in my phone and
Facebook - So when I go to people, I see that there's like 4 categories when I press MENU and VIEW: SIM(0) ; Google(296); Phone(731) and Facebook (460)
Ok, first weird thing is that even if I choose to View only my Phone contacts, on searches and when I write an SMS, the suggestions include their Gmail and Facebook entries too- which is quite confusing because the reason I hid them is I only want to send an SMS (yeah I know theres an option "Only contacts with phone number"). Is this really the case? Next weird thing is that: Since some of my Phone contacts are actually my Gmail and FB contacts as well, I linked them from the phone app (I clicked Link in the Menu and chose their respective contacts). Okay, so in the list, I see the name of my Phone contact and at the same time if I click on their names I see email and FB info as well (the FB profile pic shows! neat!).
However, I found out that when I try to click on Edit it still let me choose which contact I will edit, in this case: Google or Phone - I thought I linked you 2 already, so it follows that if I add an info, like, another number then it (the Phone app) should assign it to the name as a whole, right? Apparently, the Link command in Phone app only makes you "see" one name in the list- but in other processes still treats your contacts separately. Okay good- at least I know now. But When I try to Delete the contact in Phone it also deletes the Google contact but Facebook contact remains. Does it really treat them separately or as one- basically the problem is that users need to know how the Phone app actually does it's process of syncing. Or at least wouldn't it make sense, for the system to ASK you which account you would want to delete the same way it asked which one you wanted to edit (as my experience did above)? Something like "Do you wanna delete: Google, Phone or ALL?" (I know Facebook is a bit complicated so it's ok if Facebook contact editing and deletion is not totally synced for now).

Nov 12, 2009I am looking for a reliable solution to keep my contacts in sync with Thunderbird and my (planned) DROID-mobile. With my old Symbian-phone I am using the Funambol-services and SyncML - which works very well. I tried to import all my contact details to Google-contacts now. But unfortunately Google does not provide own fields for street, zip and city but a single address field only. Is this the same for the DROID/Android2 - or are there fields for zip and city also? Do you have any recommendations how to handle this? I noticed that the development of Funambol client (SyncML) is stalled. So there is no chance to synchronize the DROID by SyncML, correct?

View 4 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Remove An Activity From Navigation Stack (without Finishing)
Aug 10, 2010Let's say you have a TabActivity with activities A1, A2, A3, and A4. When you click on the different tabs, no matter how many times you navigate between them, when you press the back key you leave the entire tab group, instead of navigating to a previous tab. My problem is, I am not using an actual TabActivity.
Does anyone know how to specify to Android that I'd like to mimic that behavior with a group of activities? The classic solution (that I know of) would to simply finish() the activity as you navigate away from it. That clears the stack, so that when you went from A1 and then to A2, and pressed back, you don't go back to A1.
The problem with using finish() is that I don't want the activity removed from memory. These activities load data from the network, so unless the data was cached, it would need to be reloaded on every navigation which would not be a great user experience.
I was looking at the flags which you can specify how to change this behavior: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/fundamentals.html#acttask I tried using these: intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP); intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK); intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP); But no matter what, when I go from A1 to A2 and press back, I always get back to A1.

Android :: Free Up Memory By Finishing An Activity After Calling Another?
Feb 25, 2010Hopefully the title wasn't to confusing but what I meant was the following:
Lets say activity A starts activity B by calling:
Intent myIntent = new Intent(Activity_A.this, Activity_B.class);
Activity_A.this.startActivity(myIntent);
Could I save/free up some memory by finishing Activity_A after Activity_B is begun (if thats even possible). Maybe through the following:
Intent myIntent = new Intent(Activity_A.this, Activity_B.class);
Activity_A.this.startActivity(myIntent);
Activity_A.finish();
Or would Acitivty_A call startActivity() and wait for Activity_B to finish before it called finish()?
The idea would then be that when the users end with Activity_B, it would just restart Acitivity_A (and finish itself in a similar fashion)? Would this create too much overhead? Thanks for any answers and I apologize if the formatting of this post isn't correct.
Android :: Make Precise Handling Of Pan And Zoom Finishing?
Aug 25, 2010I am trying to write an application that will dynamically load data to map while user pans or zooms it.
So I need to track when map finished to change its view state (stops panning or zooming) and then load a new portion of data for creating markers. But in fact Google Maps API doesn't have any events to handle this.
There are some methods like creating empty overlay to control onTouch events and so on, but map panning could last long after user finished his touch (cause GMaps use some kind of inertion to make pan smoother).
I've tried to subclass MapView but its draw() method is final thus cannot be overriden.
Any ideas how to make precise handling of pan and zoom finishing?

View 1 Replies View RelatedSony Ericsson Xperia X10 :: Sync To SE-site Does Not Backup All Contacts And Immature Contacts
Sep 20, 2010I have two groups of contacts "MyContacts" and "Utilities". When I set up synching I selected to copy "All contacts".
Unfortunatey, when I look what's on my area on sonyericsson.com/wportal I see only the contacts from the group "MyContacts".
I.e. the site creates a false feeling of security - if I need to restore my phone from this site I will irrecovarebly lose lots of data.
I don't know is SE forgot to test their function or Android-hackers don't understand the features of the contacts.
All area of handling the contacts stinks seriously, and mkes you wander if the Android people ever used a mobile phone :
1. X10 does not accept contacts sent via SMS (VCARD-format), (or via MMS or bluetooth)
2. X10 does not sync with Outlook where most of business people have their contacts, and maintain them when receiving corporate mails etc.
3. The only way to get the contacts is to export from PC to a csv-file and import to gmail, and then sync to the phone. This is not that flexible due the export via csv. I.e. If I create cntacts in the phone they will not reach Outlook.

May 7, 2013I've checked my phone's sync settings, synced several times, logged in and out of Gmail online to see if anything has been updated. No such luck. Icon by phone numbers saved on phone is a cell phone, rather than the letter "G" which typically represents contacts pulled from Gmail online. I've had this issue - I believe - with my previous Samsung. Although I've seen this question brought up before, the answers are typically not device specific or have not been useful and clear to follow.
As a new user, I had difficulty negotiating this site and finding the best place to post this. There is not an LG Optimus L9 Forum so, if there is a location where this post might encourage more visibility.

Is there a way to do that?

Android :: Need A Device That Can Have Synchronization With A PC
Apr 12, 2010Have been following Android news for some time and finally I decide that this platform is the on to love.Now the hardest part is deciding. Right now I am torn between HTC Legend, the upcoming Galaxy S, or Xperia X10.What I need:
1. A device that can have synchronization with a PC and/or internet storage to store contacts
2. Multimedia player. Preferrable able to play MP4, MKV, or AVI files (with Divx and Xvic odecs). Can be native software or third parties.
3. 3.5mm audio out jacks
4. Shipped with handsfree accesories.
5. Can play good games.
6. Can read and edit office documents
7. Agenda software with alerts and such.
8. Loud speaker.
9. Camera must be there. I don't care how crappy, it's just need to be there.
10. Flash that can be used as torchlight. Not a must, but it's not to have (my Siemens S75 has one, and have been very very usable and durable!)
