  Yes, it’s a limitation of Android, which only provides one set of SyncColumns per event or per contact: this only supports one sync adapter per contacts list or per calendar. However at the server side there is no such limitation. Any authorised program can connect to the CardDAV or CalDAV server. So if your server is on your PC and you can find a PC program (or write one) which synchronises between the CardDAV server and your Google contacts list or between the CalDAV server and your Google calendar, you can get those synced up with your Android device. It looks as if Google’s calendar and contacts will now act as CalDAV and CardDAV servers, so an alternative option might be to use those as your server instead of your own PC if you were using that. If you have a PC application that also talks to your server, it should be able to talk to Google’s one as well.

  You could probably combine everything like this: By default, only “password” is checked. Like that you can choose to either have no authentication at all (“password” is unselected), one of the two, or both (“password” as well as “client certificate” are selected). Depending on what is selected, you either show both password and certificate selection at the top (below whatever connection method is chosen), one of the two, or nothing at all (email or username/URL only). Maybe you could hide the entire lower part “Authenticate using” behind some “Advanced mode” button. Remains OAuth. I’m not sure about that, would have to read up on how it works first (what data is needed to connect).

  Hello, The ORGANIZER is managed by Android (which uses the account name when no organizer has been set) and/or the calendar app. DAVdroid only takes the values which it receives from the calendar provider, see the image at https://www.davdroid.com/faq/system-integration/ You could create multiple accounts with various account names (= ORGANIZERS) and then use the calendars accordingly.

  I am not aware of any standard way of doing this (there are programs that do multi-contact export in *.vcf), nor do I know whether this would be a topic for DAVdroid or ICSdroid. Do you know of any way, to share multiple contacts via a (password-protected) URL, that can be synced to android contacts (obviuosly read-only)? Application could be: export of centrally managed customer contact info’s, export of corporate mail directory, …

  Sure. Many cases, complex thing. Still, if a user enters special, undiscoverable URL, which happens to be 404 invalid, DAVdroid shall communicate this to the user and not try the .well-known addresses. I am addressing the raised concerns here, stating in which cases 401 means invalid username/password. E.g. when the .well-known/ addresses are not fetched and thus no 404 comes from them. An additional wrong username/password on 401 is an improvement, but I think in some cases it can mean only this and not lead to a misleading ”Couldn’t find CalDAV/CardDAV service“.

  So the networks don’t support dynamic DNS updates (like RFC 2136)? Because if they do, it should be possible to resolve the laptop host name by normal DNS…

  Please see this poll: https://twitter.com/davdroidapp/status/1006892001126690816 71 % have voted for keeping current behavior (no automatic selection) However, to improve user experience, we have introduced a small message to indicate that collections must be selected to be synchronized: This message is only shown if there are no collections selected when the activity is started.

  I would add a line in the gitlab readme as you don’t use issues there: “For bug reports and feature request use the [Forum]” Same for the https://www.davdroid.com/ page: “The source code is available, and you can download the app on F-Droid.” add “For feature requests and bugs, please use our [Forum]” And add it to the “Links” section: “Contribute in our Forum” or “Discussions” oder sowas… Cheers

  We’re testing Collection Sync support for contacts with the latest DAVdroid development version. While testing, we have encountered some problems when limiting results (which would by very useful especially for DAVdroid) with certain servers/services: https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/9339 fruux (reported over support form on 29 Apr 2018) iCloud: works, but ignores limit (should send 507) (will be updated) So collection syncs seems to be working with all tested services which support it, but we can’t and won’t use limiting results for now.

  Hello, Please see here: https://www.davdroid.com/manual/accounts/#c272 DAVdroid address books accounts: They’re named after the CardDAV address book which they are connected to, plus a hash of the URL, for instance: My addresses (UA). The hash is necessary when there are two address books with the same name. The address book account names will be shown in your contacts app as possible destinations for contacts. and here: https://forums.bitfire.at/topic/1432/what-does-cq-at-the-end-of-my-e-mail-address-stand-for Without the hash (the two letters), it would not be possible to have two address books with the same name (e.g. “Address book”) in two different CardDAV accounts.

  @herz_ag I see. I’m afraid this can’t be done either with standard CardDAV/vCard (contacts must have exactly 0 or 1 BDAY), nor with most Android contact apps, which don’t allow do set more than one birthday per contact. Other event types than anniversary and birthday would be supported by Android, but are not supported by vCard and could only be implemented over DAVdroid-specific X- properties, which would not be supported by other clients. Maybe this will be implemented in the future, but at the moment, there is no priority for that. So for the moment, I recommend to create multiple contacts with one birthday per contact.

  @juham Shouldn’t be necessary. When you don’t send the address-book capabilities on OPTIONS and don’t provide CardDAV properties, that should be enough. However, when you receive REPORT requests you don’t understand, you’ll have to return the appropriate error code.

  You can do an automatic refresh every 15 minutes, or you can do a refresh by hand. After a refresh everything is “up to date” if there is an internet connection. Or do I miss something? I guess in the future push notifications will be possible, like “imap idle”. I have heard it is already possible with Apple’s calendarserver and with Z-push. I don’t know about an official implementation in carddav.

  Hello, For contacts: did you try Copy Contacts? I don’t know whether there are apps for moving calendar entries, but I guess so. You can also export all contacts/events and then import them again into the DAVdroid account (works at least for contacts, but I’m quite sure that there are calendar apps which support import/export). I understand the necessity of this feature, but it shouldn’t be implemented in DAVdroid, but in a third-party app, because it’s not related to DAVdroid (you might want to move events/contacts between other apps’ accounts, too) it’s not part of the CalDAV/CardDAV synchronization, and DAVdroid should be kept as simple as possible.
