this is more a complaint than a discussion. Why is it NOT possible to have birthdays in the contact list? why I am writing this thread - I just don't understand why they do NOT integrate this, even my old Nokia E52 managed that...I am synchronising my Mini Pro with my MacBook Pro (with SyncMate, i don't want to use Google) so I have all birthday in the calender (because I have them in the Mac calender) and now I installed Ebobirthday on the phone so the problem is kind of " bypassed". But I think it's weird that there is no birthday field in the addressbook!
Birthdays on my calendar events is not showing up to my calendar, birthdays from Facebook. Sync is properly set up. Perform the hard reset fro the phone.
Xperia X10 Mini Pro with Android 2.1-update1.I'm sorry if these questions have been asked a thousand times before, but I simply couldn't find a search box for these forums... the one on the top just searches everything. I also tried google, but none of the results seem to match.1: After I used the sync app, some of my contacts show double phone numbers. If I edit the profile, there's an extra header called "SyncML," and there seems to be no way to "delete" this header (besides, it would take a lot of time going through all the contacts, deleting it for each contact). I've tried turning off showing the sync contacts out in the list, but since the information is merged, that just doesn't do anything.
The first was notifications and I have been given to understand that the folks at Nokia are working on it.the second issue is the calendar. In the settings I have asked it to show Facebook and google calendar events. However, the calendar refuses to sync and show events. It's squeaky clean how do I get the calendar to show Facebook events and birthdays?
I don't use facebook. I do not wish to sync with my gmail (nor do I use my google account for calenders and events anyway).Even my old T650 had that simple feature of adding a birthday date to a contact and integrate it into the phone's calender events.So will Sony ever release an update that allows to add an event to contact? Samsung phones can do it...
I´m facing a strange problem my calendar events since January 1st aren´t displayed.I tried to reset the device (hard reset) but when I recovered the backup I faced the same problem.Is there anyway to delete just the Calendar data? I am asking it, because I would like to try a full resync (through Mail for Exchange) to try to solve the problem...
1- Anyone faced this problem because of the new year?
2- Anyone knows how to delete just the Calendar data?
I´ll try to backup everything (without calendar), do a new hard reset and then recover the backup without Calendar Items.I updated all the Firmware available.
for the past 5 years I've been using W810i. I've contacts with birthdays of my frnds. when i trnsfr that contacts to my ray thru Bluetooth. i got the contacts but the birthday can't sync with the ray calendar.
I'm having a little trouble with my Calendar on my phone. I'm using the stock in calendar, sync with Google calendar (which in turn has import from my hotmail). On my old G502 phone, which I loved for its simplicity according to its price tag, there I could press a snooze, or OK button when the calendar started reminding me about an event.
Here the phone keeps reminding me all the time, its like there is no Ok button, only a snooze? If the event started at 1, and the event last until 2, but I had the alarm set to 0.30, then it would start at 0.30 and continue until 2. I have to manually enter go to the event, hit edit, and turn of the alarm inside there. Is there no simpler way of doing this?
I just switched from the default Samsung calendar app to the Google Calendar app. Events from my primary Google calendar, "Personal", appear on the Google Calendar app on my S5, but the calendar itself doesn't appear as an option when creating new events or in the Settings page. As a result, I can see all of my events that I enter via my PC browser (correctly under the label "Personal"), but I cannot add new events from my phone to that specific calendar. My other, less frequently used Gmail calendars (Birthdays, work, a few shared calendars) appear.
I am using Xperia Mini Pro nd had updated my phn till version 4.0.2.A.0.58 via phone only but this time the new version 4.0.2.A.0.62 can not be updated directly via phone its says to use PC COMPANION, while using PC COMPANION and selcting the update process its prompting to stop WINIT process to start downloading the update.
My SI No. is listed in the site and I got the update notification also. But when I try to update using PC Companion, am getting the below error message.
Recently i update sony xperia mini to android 4.0 battery backup is worst i charged battery full a night at morning it shows 81% battery i a have turned of wifi,gps,data brightness 25% which app can give better battery backup
a few days ago I bought my SE X10 mini pro.I now have a problem with my battery. A few hours ago, my battery level was around 35% A few hours later, it remained at 35% indication.Since this couldn't be correct, i restarted the phone. Now, my battery indication was 100%. False again.I turned the phone off. It wouldn't restart.I tried the 'flash device method' by holding back button and putting in computer USB. No help.I tried SEUS. After that, phone switched back on, with false battery indication back to 100%, which is impossible.I noticed that during all this 'fun stuff', my battery refuses to charge. The LED indicator remains green without flashing, the settings screen doesnt say 'charging'. I know that the phone won't charge below 95% battery.So, the phone thinks the battery is 100%, therefore won't charge, and I'm pretty screwed, especially since I fear that once my battery drops dead, the phone won't be able to charge ever since it will think its 100% full...
I've been having problems with my phone recently, it doesn't recieve some text messages or show my missed calls. A friend suggested that it may just need updating, which made sense because I'd been getting update notifications, just hadn't got round to hooking my ohone up to my laptop. So I did just that and installed the 'companion' but when I try to update, it's asking me to insert a memory card. I've never taken it out! Not once. So i've turned the phone off and on again, as you do.
I just updated my Xperia Mini Pro, but after the update, a) new text messages appear at the bottom of the list of texts (so annoying!) and b) the newest text message does not appear on the list when I reply to it.Is this a bug? I really don't think it's a feature.
I have looked online everywhere for a replacement battery and am unable to find one! Can you please direct me in the correct direction, and the battery required is as on the url supplied [URL] 3.7V 950 mAh Li-Polymer battery Measuring 40 x 35 x 5.5 mm and weighing in at a scant 18 grams?way of China or EU as it has already been four weeks that my battery crashed and would only work if plugged in continuously and now just does not work full stop!
Just wanted to share my experience. I did the update on November 8. I didn't bother to do the backup. The only real important is the contacts and Google have them already. I used the Update Service tool and it worked like a charm. After restarting the phone I had to go through the setup wizard, which by the way is much improved. I now realized that I had lost all my downloaded applications. I downloaded them again from market. Most of them had all the old data, nice. Some games lost all history, no big deal really. My contacts, mail and calendar was downloaded from Google.
I realy like the fact that it is possible to send contacts by SMS. The images from facebook also works very well.
The one thing that I am still not used to is the unlooking. The habbit of pressing the menu button twice is had to kick. I think the new way with the slider is somewhat safer.Now I am waiting 2.2 with tethering. I hope this will be available for X10 mini some time in the future.
So i have birthday enabled on iCal, i have my iPhone set to sync all calendars, but yet, some, not all, of my birthday's will not show up on my iPhone. It doesn't seem to follow any patter, just some do not sync. Any thoughts on this?
I saw a few sync issues with third party softwares doing a search, but could not find my issue.I don't sync my mobile with any third-party software such as Microsoft Exchange or anything.
But I entered birthdays an anniversaries in the contacts.For instance, I create a new contact, his name's Bob.
"Add detail" ; birthday, say 09/07/1990.
On my oooold Nokia 3200, tomorrow, I would have a reminder in the calendar (it would even say Bob's 20, but I saw in my search that this was no longer available)
On my E71, nothing. If I entered a birthdate in the contact, maybe it means I suck at remembering the dates.If I used a downloaded App on the Ovi store, I would understand, maybe DLed apps don't have access to the contact data. But here I use the Nokia Calendar, and the Nokia contacts.Is it just me? Did I forgot to set something? Am I asking to much? (Come on, a 3200 could...)
So I woke up and found that my M8 annoyingly has my FB friends birthdays in the Sense 6 calendar. How do I get rid of them? I can't find any settings in the calendar or Facebook apps.
I've posted this problem earlier. My Birthdays in my Contacts, do not carry over to Google Calendar. I don't have access to a laptop to go on the Web, to use the web version of Google calendar. All advice has mentioned Gmail. I don't use Gmail for email. It's not loaded as an app, but I used to use it. Is that the reason why contact birthdays don't show on Google Calendar? I have added birthdays as a recurring event, but it annoys me that it doesn't work.
