wow, that was quick. Awesome! Looking forward for testing this. Thank you.
Automatic sync does not work on Huawei-Devices
-
@der_micha2006 Yes, you can access those settings by the path you mentioned too. Autostarts, background apps, permission settings might be the problem. You can also go to the system app “Phone manager” to find relevant settings (don’t know whether this exists in international-version Huawei system).
I still believe such problem is mostly caused by system settings added by the manufacturer.

Hi, I checked everything and found this (german) FAQ: http://www.android-hilfe.de/thema/faq-anleitungen-zum-mate-7-und-andere-huawei-smartphones.776111/#post-9853032
Unfortunatelly it did not solve the problem. Automatic calender sync is still not working.

I have a similar problem on my Oneplus 3 with OxygenOS 4.0.3 (Android 7.0). My settings are to auto sync every hour (I’ve also changed this to 15 min for testing purposes) and immediately after local changes to my Nextcloud server. This does not work, the only way to sync is if I run it manually.
I’ve checked the battery optimization setting and DAVDroid app is set to NO optimization.
Also the permissions look fine:
I’ve cheked the log but there is nothing in it until I do the manual sync:

Is there anything else I could check to get the sync done?

System-wide synchronization: manually
Sync is disabled for the whole device. You’ll have to enable it. Your phone’s manual should contain instructions about how to do this.

Right, this is it - it’s working now, thanks a lot!

@avalx Since DAVdroid 1.4.1, there’s now a notification message for exactly this case.

Cool, I will upgrade soon.
-
Hi,
has anybody an idea how to solve the problem on my device? Still found no hints about this.
-
@der_micha2006 Did you try the latest version of DAVdroid? We’ve introduced a system-wide sync-check in DAVdroid 1.4.1, and if it is not enabled you will see a notification bar at the bottom of the screen and can enable it directly.
It however seems very likely to be a vendor problem. Did you contact Huawei in this matter? I think we cannot help you in this case…
-
Hi, yes, I am using 1.4.1.
No, I did not contact huawei. Do you think they will really take care about this? Usually I would expect that the programming company would do this in case of paid software like davdroid. I am not sure if it makes sense if I would be the man in the middle.
The Problem does not appear only with my Ascend Mate 7, same problem with Huawei RIO-L01 of my wife…
So I think it really makes sense that somebody of the development team could check this and solve the problem hopefully also for other huawei-devices…

I can’t check this without being able to reproduce the problem. And we neither have a Huawei device, nor do I know anyone who has a Huawei device…

@rfc2822 great support for a non-free app…
-
@der_micha2006 Thanks! Did the non-free Huawei support solve your problem?
-
Anyway, can you check whether other auto-sync apps work on your Mate 7? That can narrow down your problem.
-
@der_micha2006 Maybe this could help: https://forums.bitfire.at/topic/1373/security-exception-when-opening-content-provider-for-com-android-contacts-org-dmfs-tasks
Can you look up in Android app settings whether DAVdroid has calendar, address book and tasks permissions?
-
Hi all,
first impression after last update to 1.5.01 is, that it is fixed now.
I will continue testing next days an let you know, if i will face new problems…
Thanks a lot for your support!
