Hi,
is it possible to use the android calendar without a google account?
Can we mod it to use it without google? I mean mod source code and compile it new?
Could some one do it?
Can i install a google account on defy without internet?
Mod?
Tool?
Hack??
Big thanks for help!
Bye
I think you can, but I haven't tried having removed the stock Calendar app already. BTW, there are some alternative calendar programs that don't use the built-in database, such as Fliq.
You can always change the codes yourself, but from the way you raised the question I don't think you know how to do (and nor do I), and I doubt if anyone is interested in doing this. Of course, if you're willing to pay a reasonable bounty then it's another question...
Finally, an Internet connection is needed for setting up a Google account.
Maybe if you tell us what you actually want to do, then we can give some more useful suggestions.
Hi, thanks for answer.
I only know jorte, how has got his own database.
All other software usere the google account.
Id like to have a google free sync android, which i must not show every time, if it has synced with google server.
Please, can you tell me which devices have got a own calendar which not use the google calendar?
The google calendar looks realy nice.
Why no one want a google free and without sync calender?
Btw i cant mod the code.
Iam not a coder, only admin.
Can i activate the calendar without a google account?
so that i can use a second software how uses the calendera database?
Big thanks
You can activate a Google account without syncing your Calendar, Contacts and such with Google. They can be disabled in Settings.
If you want to go a bit further, just remove the respective *Sync.apk from /system/app (search for posts on how to remove system apps) provided that you've rooted your device.
This is all?
But is the system app *sync.apk only for google sync?
Or can i even sync with mypohone explorer any more?
Yes.
Yes.
Solution?
Hello,
I had the same problem and i found out that Jorte ( found on android market ) did do the thrick for me. It is pretty standalone. Notice that of you want notifications ( sounds etc ) in Jorte that you need to configure that in the original agenda of defy.
Hope this is your solution, regardings Rick
It IS possible
Hi,
I have CM7 installed, at first without GoogleApps. Then it is not possible to use the native calendar program. But, if flash gapps, bot NOT login or create a new account, the calendar app works fine, though.

Hi, how have you installed CM7 on Defy?
I found out another trick on my SE LWW. After installing CM9.1 with GApps i replaced the Calendar.apk with native SemcCalendar.apf from official Firmware, but FC. After replacing google's Calendar.apk back i was able to use in normally.
Please ask all questions in the Q&A section. Thread moved there.

i have this build since 1 month now, and i love it!
but now i want to change the google-accounts (the new account is from my domain using google apps)
i googled around a little but, but didn't found a solution
is there any way to get into a "first boot"-state, so i can set my new google-account?
another question is: is there any way to merge apps between 2 google-accounts. afaik the apps from the market are bound to the account.
hopefully my english skills were good enough to describe my problem.
greetings
havox
is there anything missing in my description to solve my problem?
or is it impossible with CM7?
How about:
Settings -> Accounts & Sync -> Add Account ?

Hi,
Have you tried :Settings>accounts and sync>google>remove account?
Or apps>setup?
ok - thanks for the answers
but it's not working :/
i tried the "remove account" in account and sync, but there is a message that i have to set back the phone to factory setting. (under point "privacy")
but this doesn't work. i can push the button "delete everything" - but nothing happens ...
@malybru: what do you mean with "apps>setup". i suppose i found it, but what i have to do there? there are listed all apps, right?

Hi,
It may just be on my ROM,but I've got an app called "setup".
I suppose it's the one that runs when you first run a ROM ,and you can install your google details and wi-fi etc.
I realize this thread is nearly 1 year old, but I'd like to add something here that I know works.
I had to merge my two gmail accounts and by chance, I found that this approach worked.
Go to settings and apps for Google Play, clear the cache, force stop and uninstall updates. Go back into Google Play. You'll have to click on Accept on their T&C, then click on Menu to see accounts... select the account the app is in that you want to move to the other account. Uninstall it. Menu, Select 2nd account you want to move app to, then install.
If you don't want to lose the cached data, well, guess you're out of luck. The above was the only way I was able to move over my apps from one gmail to another gmail account.
Hi!
first of all i´m new here, but used the "search"... couldn´t find anything.
I´m running teamhacksung´s ICS on i9000.
is there a way i can sync my contacts with facebook? i mean no 3rd party app. i found a script in the nexus s forum, but couldn´t really use that.
regards
Malte
got the same problem and the i found that it is a problem in ics and the best way is a 3rd party app
I'm also searching for an "native" way, but only way i know it's using FriendCaster or HaxSync
Searching on the net some days ago, I found a working method,described here in xda forums (though I don't remember which one). Basically a dev recompiled the GoogleSyncFramework.apk (or wether it's named) to sync with facebook
Have you tried the app that lets you sync with Facebook Some google magic will certainly help you
"HIT THANKS IF I HELPED YOU"
Yeah currently i'm using friendcaster.
I don't like to have different apps for differen't functions, so i'm still looking Form a way Tor geht it into ICS
Regards
Too bad that google just did not implemented it in ICS.. Also too bad that facebook wasn't going to allow adjustments of the contacts via android contacts apk..
at least i thought that this was the problem...
Hi, probably too soon, but has someone already managed to solve the one calendar problem on Calendar App? Like, i use google calendar with multiple calendars in it (basically, for different colors display on phone), an would be nice to have this feature here... I know, probably wont be fixed till final release, but just wanted to know if someone had an Idead =)
BTW, loved this consumer preview! Really, just put google account somewhere, and everything else started sharing and syncing!!
Havn't had time to install the Consumer Preview yet (and I don't really use Google Calender), but there is a similar problem with WP7.
Now I don't know if the Calender app support multiple calenders correctly (might be an issue on Windows 8's side), but if it does (like WP7), you need to select which calenders to use in Google.
Again, I am not too familiar with this, but this might the same problem so this page might help you:
http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2450384
If it doesn't work after that try manually syncing Google or re-adding your Google account.
hm, good shot, but two problems...
first, I used to have this problem on iphone, and solved like the way you showed. On android, don't have this issue, can't even access this webpage cause it has other ways to solve. So, i used my sister's iphone, and went to m.google.com/sync, and there the only thing that showed was Windows Mail, no calendar options =/
Tryed to resync, no luck, since different from mail app, it can't be done. You cand Add accounts, but not delete...
But, anyway, its a beta, probably things are gonna change in the near future
BTW, when windows phone 8.0 show up, my galaxy sII will have a mini heart attack, haha
thanks anyway

Hi,
Currently per Google's request for bandwith, Calendar App only Sync root calendar.
Developers on both sides are working on this issue to improve accessibility on this.
Thank you for using Windows 8 and your feedback.

i got my google calendar to work in sync with the calendar app for windows 8 if that is what you are asking i could explain? google calendar colors is another story though, can't replicate the color scheme on w8
he meant multiple calendars using the same account, currently the calendar will only show the primary calendar, it has no options to see the other calendars created under the same account, reason is in that quote of mine above
Hello,
It took me a while to understand that the Contact app in the Chinese Stock ROM is somehow customized.
Since Google Play Store and Gmail apps are not installed here then I managed to get them and pushed them to system/app. Fine, can access GMail and the app store using my gmail account.
However, although I've set in <Acoount> my Google account to sync People details, there is no freakin way to sync them in the Contacts app. No "Merge with Google" item to select, only Samsung. So frustrating!!
Does anybody know how to sync the contacts? I'm not talking about importing.
Otherwise do you think I should try to get from a fellow SGS4 owner the official (and not restricted) Contacts apk (btw is this SecContacts.apk?)
thanks a lot for your help

Nobody? :crying:

I have the same issue. Just bought a samsung in China and I'm unable to sync google contacts.
I've downloaded the GoogleContactsSuncAdapter.apk and will install onto my phone tonight. Hopefully this will work. Will let you know how it goes.
Well, how did that go lavive? Cause I'm having the same problem

I didn't a way until now
Maybe we'd better look for a contact apk from a Samsung's international Stock ROM, and replace the one from the Chinese Stock ROM.
I needed to change the Google account in my NSTG but couldn't find an obvious way to do it from the existing apps or tools in my rooted device. Removing accounts.db from /data and rebooting seemed to do the trick - I was then able to add a new Google account by using the Market app. Mail, calendar, etc. sync, Google Talk works and installed apps can be updated via Market. I don't know what effect this has on the B&N account and on-line library as I don't use their services but at least the stock reader app and library continue to work OK.
You might have been able to do it through the Gmail app's settings.
Thanks. At least in the Gmail app that I have there's only an option to add an account. Maybe it would allow me to delete the old account after adding a new account but I'm not going to test that now that everything is working perfectly. If someone could confirm that - whether one Google account can be deleted if there are multiple accounts present - I'd appreciate it.
