That's basically it. I don't want to keep getting e-mail (at my gmail account) that I have no events on a given day. How do I stop the Photon calender app from doing this?
View 4 RepliesI have a major issue with my corporate exchange calendar. If I accept an invitation to a meeting, the phone makes me the organizer of the meeting. This syncs back to my corporate calendar. This is obviously completely wrong. If I delete the meeting on my phone, or on my computer, it sends out a message to everyone that was on the meeting saying that it was cancelled. If I need to adjust the meeting only on my calendar, it sends out an update to everyone. It has caused a lot of confusion for me and my work colleagues.

Mine seems to hang at night (seemingly about 20min after I plug it in for charging) and stays on yesterdays date and time until somehow it corrects itself the next day. There is no way to "activate it" or make it correct itself. All other clocks and calendars are correct.
View 15 Replies View RelatedI have a Sprint Motorola Photon 4G and I am using it in Brazil with a Claro SIM Card. The phone reboots itself sometimes when I try to make or receive a phone call (2 or 3 times a day). I know this is happening to other Photon owners and I already tried the factory reset twice. My build # is 4.5.1A-1_SUN-198_6. Does anyone know a fix for that?

View 12 Replies View RelatedI have no notifications in the drop-down menu and the green notification LED won't stop flashing when the screen is off. If I do get a real notification and clear it, then light will go away until the next reboot. I've done two factory resets and no change. I took the phone into Sprint this morning after a reset and no apps installed and the tech verified the problem but after a few minutes on the computer, he told me this was a known software problem and he can't do anything about it. I have spent most of today troubleshooting this and searching the internet and have yet to find any other Photon user with the same problem. I've seen some other posts with other phones (android and blackberry), but nothing that looked to be widespread and nothing by Photon users. I did find a way around this by rooting and installing an app that takes control of the LED but I shouldn't have to do this and the app seems to be a battery drain. I've since got rid of the app, unrooted and tried flashing the 1FF-sunfire-user-2.3.4-4.5.1A-1_SUN-154_5-CM-release-keys-signed-Sprint-US.sbf (old software from August) and the problem was still there. I then let the phone take the OTA updates and the problem persists. I didn't have this problem until I did a factory reset on Friday trying to get rid of another problem with rebooting.

My girlfriend has called me for the past three days and she says my phone rings and rings and goes to voicemail. I have Sprint Service. I am not using TeleNav or any other navagation, I am just using the GPS mode and Bluetooth is also running. I dont have any other issues with not receiving incoming calls unless its in the dock.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI noticed that whenever I am making/receiving calls, the screen flashes every few seconds. I wonder why it is doing that. I have never seen this on any other phone before. At first I thought it was related only to the silent call issue that the screen flashes every few seconds but even when I am able to make a regular call it still does this.

View 6 Replies View RelatedAnyone used or using Drive First?I installed it, was using it, but just too much for me, I already use a car dock, motospeak and bluetooth.(Yes, trying to be safe).It just does not intrgrate well with Google Voice.Anyway, it seemed to install an app when I signed up for it, the app is called Smart Device Manager.After cancelling Drive First it continues to lock my screen when the car moves.I figured out which app is is, but the only available option is "uninstall updates" and it keeps wanting to re-update the app after I uninstalled updates. I have uninstalled updates and reinstalled a few times, but it seems that app is dug in there, and won't leave.Because Sprint customer service has NO CLUE (after 4 reps) how the app works, or how to get rid of it?

View 9 Replies View RelatedMy Photon 4 G does not sync calendar, contact, Gmail with my company Gmail account. I believe that it just stopped syncing last week and I believe that it was following a Motorola update, but cannot say for sure. Under Data Delivery, both Background Data and Data enabled are checked green. However, this is interesting because Email and corporate sync is grayed out on that screen. When I go to Account, checking the sync options is not possible, but I can do a manual sync. Please note, at one time, these options to sync Contacts, Gmail and Calendar were available. I've pulled the batter. I really do not want to reset to factory default. Suggestions? (Please note this is a company Gmail account, not just regular Gmail.)

Then try to connect the PPTP VPN over 3G it fails. So, does PPTP VPN work over Sprint 3G?Initial research: I have read on some old posts that VPN over Sprint 3G is not supported from smart phones, only wireless modems. Some of the VPN problems were also caused by earlier versions of the android linux. Is it possible to use VPN over Sprint 3G from a Photon? If not does PPTP VPN work on other Sprint phones?

I have had a Motorola Photon for a few months now and I love it........until now.I plugged my phone in last night before I went to bed and the screen turned on, which told me the phone was charging. I woke up this morning and found that my phone was at 20% battery life and hadn't charged all night. I walked downstairs and tested the phone on another wall charger I have and it did not work either. I then plugged it into my computer and viola, my phone starts charging. On the way to work, I plugged the phone into my car charger and the phone would still not receive a charge but the screen would turn on. I got to work, where I just happen to sell phones, and tested a different Photon battery from a demo phone to see if that was the issue. To no avail, my phone still didn't charge. When I plug my phone in with an A/C charger, the screen turns on but the phone does not accept a chargeWhen I plug the phone into a USB cable connected to my Macbook Pro, the phone charges with no problems.
View 15 Replies View RelatedAny ideas why my phone would stop ringing when calls come in? And yes... it is not on silent. Even when I go to the ring tones and try to change to another, standard ring tone, it won't play the sound. It will make a noise when I turn the volume up and down. I turned it off and back on and it will now ring. Worried that this is going to be a routine problem. I have noticed that I've had some missed calls that I thought were odd because the phone was nearby, but didn't think much of it before. Today I was expecting a call at 1:30 so I had the phone sitting right next to my keyboard at work with the volume on. I looked down and there was my missed call. I then started calling it from my desk phone and it did not ring. When it was in silent mode it vibrated like it should so I turn the phone to always vibrate to make sure I didn't miss the call when it came in again.
