[Q] Exchange Sync - Contacts & Calendar topic

I am running the GPE 5.0.1 ROM by @Danvdh and I'm having a problem syncing to my new work email account. I haven't had exchange on this phone before so I don't know if its a problem, or just not possible. In my searches it looks like I might need a few different apps, but that's why I here asking.

I have installed "Bluemail" and added my MS Exchange account info. Email syncs fine, but I'm trying to get my contacts (google) to sync with my work email, along with my calendar. The rom doesn't have a calendar installed by default so I installed "Business Calendar", but I'm not married to it at all, and am more than willing to switch to get it to sync. I also tried "Nine" email app but it doesn't seem to be syncing contacts TO Exchange, (maybe just from it?) And I don't know where its trying to sync the calendar to, but it doesn't appear to be working either. I hope this is all possible because on my old work phone (iPhone) everything would sync up easily and I really don't want to go to an iPhone.

New contacts won't sync names topic

I have had the phone for a while now but suddenly new contacts I create one the phone won't save the contact name. All other details like phone, email and phonetic name will save fine. When that happens the name is stored as "nullnull". I'm not sure if it's related as I didn't notice it right away but I updated to 23.0.1.A.5.77 a while back.

I use Fruux for contact sync and am using their sync app. In Fruux I can see the contact fine showing "no name" and adding a name there saves fine, then syncing the change to the phone works fine and now I can see the name in the phone.

Things I have done:
-Deleted fruux sync account on phone and in fruux
-Deleted fruux app
-Wiped phone cache using the volume up and power button trick. I did get the three vibrates but not sure that did anything as the phone booted right in quick and I didn't see it rebuilding app data.
-Installed the Fruux app
-Made a new sync account in fruux and added that to the phone, brought in all contacts fine.
-Made another new fresh contact, again the name didn't save.

[Q] FB Calendar Sync doesn't work. topic

Hello All,

Does any one of you successfully sync the FB birthdays to your calendar thru Xperia with facebook? I already did all the possible fix but no one works even after doing a clean install of the latest firmware. I was able to sync the fb birthdays on my calendar using the 3rd party app Facebook Calendar Sync but now it won't work on latest firmware. Anyone who is also having the same issue or I'm the only one?

[Q] Sync Chrome bookmarks on G3 stock browser? topic

Hi, I'm going mad.......... Does anybody know how to sync the Chrome bookmarks (PC) on the G3's stock browser?
On my Galaxy S3 could do it (it had the same stock browser), but with the LG G3 I can't find how to do it.
I like the stock browser much more than Chrome on the mobile phone.
I hope someone could help.
Thank you.

Failed calendar sync with Exchange ActiveSync and Office 365 topic

I recently switched to Office 365 email for work. After a week or so (haven't tracked it exactly yet), my Z1c stops updating events in either direction - will not add events from the server, nor push new events from the phone up to the server. I have tried setting the phone to use both 'Push' update and periodic sync.

Sync on the phone shows that the sync is running - 'last sync' is updated regularly. In my account in Office 365, it also has a panel that shows last sync time, which is updating. So, both the device and server think there is syncing going on. If I delete the account on my phone and re-create, it continues to sync normally again for about a week.

I do not have this issue with my tablet, an LG G Pad 8.3 LTE.

[Q] App Data sync option topic

Anyone has figured out what is this "App Data" in the sync option?

How does it work?

And does it work?

I found it has no effect on re-installation of my app on other device, or anything.
