I’m using ICSx⁵ 1.9-standard and DAVx⁵ 3.3.8-ose (thanks), both from F-Droid. In DAVx⁵ I am subscribed to 1 caldav (Personal) and no webcal. In ICSx⁵ I am subscribed to 3 webcal - these are all public holidays and only change about once a year.

So in ICSx⁵ I’ve set the sync interval to manual, this in confirmed by a message shown on the bottom “Automatic sync disabled”. The problem is whenever a network connection is available ICSx⁵ still tries to sync even when it’s not supposed to.

@allesaufhorst yes, I was affected myself on my production device about a year ago, however when I excluded it from battery saving of Samsung the problem started to disappear, and now I can’t reproduce it anymore…

I think adb logs would maybe help a little bit. Personally I think this is a bug in Android, but maybe we can workaround it by putting a hard-coded “wait” time before every sync is processed - however that would be very dirty…

@colona Ah I see. Yes as usual I forgot to push the tag.

@dafelix Thanks for the feedback.

Hi, thank you for making this app available which allows me to see my Outlook work calendar on Android without obtrusive apps.

I am currently exporting my Outlook calendar to Nextcloud, which in turn exposes it as a read-only WebCal calendar, which I can import into my Android apps via ICSX. Quite a chain, but it’s the only way I have been able to make it work.

The only problem is that none of the event reminders seem to carry over. I am not sure which step of the chain is responsible for that, but if that were a limitation of the protocol or any of the other systems involved, is it possible to set up at least a default reminder for all the events?

Of course, if someone has a better advice on how to access Outlook calendars on Android, I’d be glad to know about it.

Thank you.

@rf1701 Hi,

This is a duplicate of https://forums.bitfire.at/post/12711. Please follow up there. Unfortunately, I don’t know why Android starts synchronization when Internet is not available yet.

@rfc2822 I sent it via DM

@verwaiser said in Update 1.9 no sync:

@rfc2822
Of course I tried to Update manually too.

And did it succeed? I need as much information as possible, because I can’t reproduce the problem here. I’m using ICSx5 myself and there are no problems.

Before your update it worked normally, and my Samsung s8+ is no exotic brand.
And I told you, that my collegue has the same issue with another phone.

The link I posted is not about exotic brands, but about Samsung, Huawei, Lenovo, Meizu, Nubia, One Plus, Oppo, Vivo, Xiaomi, Viko and others.

Then I looked to App rights, there I saw, that the authorisation “memory” isnt enabled (I never was asked for this). After enabling the sync succeeded.

Are you using local feeds?

As said above, I need information about your case, otherwise it’s just wild guessing around which will not bring any results.

Consider mine the second request please.
Having tasks synced as well is of major importance.
I currently export them as calendar entries but despite being much less useful, it’s plain ugly.

@rfc2822 Thank you, this helps a lot, it is a subscription of a shared calendar of an openXchange suite. Seems this error has always been there, but ICSX5 has begun to fail just with the pre-former release. I will contact the server software provider…

Hmm. OK, seems that any other app modifies this flag … Indeed I have multiple calendar apps installed (DigiCal, Samsung Calendar, Google Calendar). How could I check whether one of these modifies the flag?

Hello,

This calendar https://accueil.iut-info.univ-lille.fr/calendrier/iutinfo.ics return the error “Couldn’t parse iCalendar”.

I’ve tried to validate it with https://icalendar.org/validator.html and i get no errors. And I can open the file directly with the calendar of my Samsung phone.

I don’t know how much can I try to debug. Can you help me with that ?

I found an article describing the phenomenon, and it seems to be a known issue with workaround: https://www.solvemix.com/index.php/en/year-2019/huawei-p20-pro-calendar-colors-change-regularly-solution.html

I’ll try the solution from there, which is to remove the Calendar permission from the Huawei Calendar app.

@rfc2822 Thank you for following up. The best way I could find to try to convey the feedback was to use their chat feature on their web page which unfortunately means I have no record of the conversation.
The representative tried to inform me about all the things I already knew, like how they supported so many calendars, how I am the only person to raise the issue etc., but after repeating myself a few times said they would provide the information to the developers.
I asked if I would get advised when/if the developers looked/fixed it but was told probably not.
So for now I can view the calendar in all I use except on my Android phone. That’s OK as not a vital thing, just frustrating.
If needed, this item can be closed. Thanks again.

Thanks, I’ll have a look soon.
