HTC EVO 4G : Adding Calendars Option Appears Grayed Out / How To Fix
Jun 8, 2010
When I try to add a calendar to my phone (apps>Calendar>Menu>More>Calendars>Add Calendars), the option for "OK" is grayed out. Theres no other option or way to add calendars that I can think of. It pulled my personal gmail account's calendar (which I do not use) but it did not pull my work calendar (which is also on a Google calendar using Google's domain thing).
Does anyone know why the option appears grayed out for me?

Today I plugged my Desire in to the USB socket, to top up the charge, and noticed the little USB icon/logo thing that usually shows up on the top left of the Desire's screen wasn't there. I checked in the phone's settings and it is still set to ask me what to do when I plug it in. I have tried a couple of leads (including the one HTC gave me) as well as both front and back USB ports. My PC is running windows 7 and it plays the chime when I plug my phone in.
It also appears in devices/printers but when I right click the phone and choose browse files it is greyed out! I have tried uninstalling the drivers etc, restarting the PC, I even tried to plug the phone into my netbook (running Ubuntu, which used to recognize the phone) but nothing works! It is not really the end of the world but I would like to sort it. The phone charges when I plug it in the USB socket on the PC. I suddenly thought 'I haven't rebooted the phone' so I did and all works as it should now.

I'm having no luck deleting some pics that I no longer need on my phone. I had previously created a new folder called Stuff using ES File Explorer where I had temporarily stashed these pics. This folder is visible when I go into the Gallery, as are folders named Camera and Messaging. Some of these stashed pics were copied from Camera and some from Messaging...so like a dummy, I have the same pics showing up in three different places.
Anyway, I finally decided today that I wanted to delete those pics. I opened the Stuff folder in the Gallery, menu selected all, then hit delete. The screen flashed momentarily, then all the images reappeared. I tried the same thing again, but no luck. I even deleted the Stuff folder while in ES File Explorer, but it still shows up when I go into the Gallery. When I opened the other folders, Camera and Messaging, when I try to delete the pictures, the Delete option is grayed out.
I have no idea why, but I then went into ES File Explorer /sdcard/dcim/.thumbnails (had to select the option to view hidden files/folders) and wondered if maybe it was just the thumbnail images which still remained. So I deleted those too. Still no luck.
What am I doing wrong. Where do I have to go, or what do I have to do, to delete this stuff permanently?

I have an issues and hopefully somebody can help. Ok I have an Evo and it wont read SD cards. Whne I put in an SD card the option to mount or format the card are grayed out and it shows not available space as if there is no card in there.
So I figure its a bad slot so I take it to a close by repair center and the guy lets me try a card he had in another android phone (hero I think) and it it was recognized by my phone. So I go it must be that my card bad.
I go home and put the card in my laptop and format it and it formats fine. When I put it in the Evo still not recognized. I put the card in my PS3, it's recognized so I format it there too. I put it in the Evo still not recognized.
I can't be the slot in my evo cause I put the guys card in myself, turned it on myself and saw for myself that it recognized the card. Anybody know whats up with this? I have official 2.2 but this was going on BEFORE I updated to froyo. Can anybody help?

I've moved some of my common code into a library project so that multiple projects can access it. I created an empty project, set it to be a library in the properties screen, then imported some classes. Next, I created a new (non library) project and added my new library project to it. Immediately upon rebuild, I get the following error: ERROR: Unknown option '--auto-add-overlay' Android Asset Packaging Tool

I cannot get Microsoft Exchange to work with my email/calendar at work, so I've set up an IMAP account for work email and it syncs fine.
Now I wanted to set up a calendar on my Droid to sync with my work calendar. When I go into the built-in calendar on the Droid, it shows that I'm running 2 calendars, "Holidays" and my Gmail calendar. If I go into "settings" and click on "Add calendar" the option to "OK" is grayed out.
Why is this? Is there a limit of 2 calendars?
Is it indeed possible to sync my work calendar into the Droid using IMAP?

In Android, I want to present the user with a list. When an item on the list is selected some action is performed, and this list item is no longer selectable. It is also 'grayed out' or the like to indicate that it cannot be selected the next time the list is displayed. I have seen the isSelectable() override in Adapter, but I believe this causes the item to be treated as a separator, which causes visual problems. And I have not found a way to 'gray out' an item.

I'm using the default texting app, and every once in a while, I can't type in the text box because it is grayed out. Any one else ever have anything happen like this? I've taken the battery out, and it still does this. My phone is the htc incredible and I'm on 2.2.

I recently received a replacement EVO to replace one that got wet through the Best Buy insurance program thingy. Anyway it is a brand new EVO but it will not connect to 4G. My wife has an EVO as well and sitting side by side hers connects and mine will not. If you go to Wireless and Networks settings the setting titled 4G is grayed out and says turning on underneath but it never changes. You cannot tick the check box.The next setting is titled 4G settings and when you click it ALL the options are grayed out and none of the check boxes ca be ticked.Like I said I know we have 4G coverage as my wife's phone is getting it fine.Also if you go to About Phone in the settings and look at hardware information it lists 4G MAC address as unavailable. Any ideas or similar problems out there? Could I have turned something on or off that is stopping the 4G radio?

I want to add a contact just to my phone and not to my gmail account.Whenever I start to add a contact (phone, 208544.menu, +contact, create new contact,) the next thing it forces me to do is to choose an account to create the new contact under and it lists my 3 gmail accounts.I have no option to just put it on the phone.Any ideas here?We do the same thing on the Incredible but it gives us the gmail account and the phone to choose from but not on the Motorola.

I have some 80MB left on the phones memory, I have downloaded a lot of apps, tried them and deleted most of them (but far from all). There are still a lot of apps I would like to DL and try out, but before doing that I would like to move as much as possible to the SD card, it says I have 3.67 GB available, so plenty of room. However When I go to Applications--> Manage Applications the ption to move them to the SD card is grayed out and the option is not available to me. What do I need to do to turn it on?

I just noticed this today but cant figure out how it works. Right above the caps lock button and below the A is XT9 grayed out. Why is that there? I thought it might be a shortcut to that keyboard but cant figure it out.

I attended a seminar and simply turned the volume all the way down (i.e. Menu, Sound & Display, then Ringer Volume). But when I got out of the seminar, and went back to Ringer Volume, it's now grayed out as is Phone ringtone, Phone Vibrate, Notification Sound and all the others below until you get to Emergency Tone and below, where those are back to being bright white. i.e. now when I touch the grayed out Ringer Volume, it does nothing and I'm stuck with vibrate only.

I have updated to 2.2 (Froyo) on my Droid X. Every application has a "move to sd card" but that option is always grayed out. I have force closed some apps, but this still does not allow me to move to sd card. Can any app like Flash Player be moved to sd card and function correctly? What do I need to do to move apps to my 32GB sd card?

I have a ZTE Warp (Boost Mobile) and while the date and time are correct on the phone, I noticed that when I go to Date & Time in settings, everything is gray. I can't bring up anything other than the option to use 24-hour setting. Is this normal or is it because I have a pay-as-you go phone?

I've powered off and pulled the battery. I've also deleted any Samsung drivers on my computer. If this problem requires a "hard reset" I'll wait till 2.1 because that (most likely) wipes all data which is what a hard reset will do anyway, yes? I'm caught in some weird USB connect boot loop. I've got debugging off, I plug USB from computer to phone, I get "USB connected" in notification bar. Ok everything seems cool, right? I use pull down menu to connect, get the "select mount" screen, I press mount then I get "turn off USB card" and then "preparing USB card".
Both in quick succession in the notification bar and then I'm back to"USB connected" again over and over and over again. I'm using Windows 7 64 bit and if I open up Control Panel>Hardware and Sound>Devices and printers, I can see that the computer sees something and is calling it SAMSUNG_Android and if I right click that icon to browse files, it comes up as Removable Disk (I) and it's grayed out and I can't get in. If I take the SD card out of the phone and plug it into the computer via microSD adapter, it reads it just fine.

This has happened to me three times since getting my phone a little over a month ago. The four signal bars at the top go gray and an 'X' appears over the top of them. After this happens, all of my applications force close. The first time this happened, I took my phone to Verizon and they said they have never seen or heard of this happening so they just swapped out my phone for a brand new one. This worked for a day, until the same thing happened. Instead of waiting in line at Verizon for 3 hours again, I called customer service. The lady said it could be from an app. So I just decided to do a hard reset on my phone. It has worked for about 2 weeks and now its at it again.

I have a problem on going back (clicking the Back button) from sub-activity to main activity: from my main activity I launch a new one (with passing some extras). code...
In the started activity I am getting data from extras and showing, etc. So everything works very well until I click Back button to return back to main activity. Then main activity appears but directly after - grays-out. I can't do anything there anymore... This "grayed-out" style looks something like there should be a dialog displayed, but there is no dialog shown, just the whole activity is pushed down/disabled instead...
One another interesting thing I noticed - that activity is still alive in background, because if I click "Search" button the Quick Search Box appears on top of my activity and if I click Back button then (to cancel it) - it disappears and my activity then becomes fully functional again (gray-out effect simply disappears...)
Tried watching logcat, but it shows nothing useful, no exceptions thrown, just this text always comes up:
W/KeyCharacterMap( 564): No keyboard for id 0
W/KeyCharacterMap( 564): Using default keymap: /system/usr/keychars/qwerty.kcm.bin
What could cause this problem?

I recently added an exchange account which I then removed. Now my only lock screen security option is "password". I'd like to use pattern lock again.
I don't have any device administrators nor any exchange accounts anymore.
Is there any way to restore the settings to what they once were?

My wife and I both use Google Calendar. I only get mine. I've found four other threads on this topic, but for other phones and the solutions (only 2 had solutions) were not for this phone: different menu options, etc. When I go to the Settings/Calendars, only my personal ones show. Well, not even all of my personal ones. And my wife's doesn't show either.

I added my school's football and basketball schedules (FIU) as well as my actual favorite college team football schedule (FSU) to my google calendar. They show up fine on google calendar but they wont show up on my evo. Is there a limit on how many calendars the evo or android as a whole can display?
As it stands I have 7. US hollidays, UK Hollidays, Special events, FIU football schedule, FIU basketball schedule, FSU football Schedule and the default google calendar. How can I get them all to show up on my evo? When you use google calendar it allows you to "browse interesting calendars", some of which are sports schedules. I add the teams I want and they show up on my google fine but not my evo.

So I have a google account, jlhopwo@gmail.com. I never use it because it gets spammed mercilessly. I have a business account, jonathan@jonathanchef.com through google apps. This account is a google account! Google apps runs my jonathanchef website, I use google to access my email, contacts, calendar- these look exactly like the email, contacts, and calendar that are in my non-business @gmail.com account. The calendar that I can see on my Evo is the jlhopwo@gmail.com. I can get my @jonathanchef.com emails, but I can't seem to be able to pull up the @jonathanchef.com calendar.
