Ummm, you know when you have to tell someone you are about to go put your head in the sand from embarrassment? This is one of those times. I somewhat forgot that I was also using another notification app. I’ll need to talk to them.

I suggest that you unistall and reinstall DAVdroid. Updating from 0.8/9 to 1.6 is quite a bit of difference and it can easily be that something goes wrong. Also DAVdroid does now support multiple address books per account – so (if the server is configured correctly) you can subscribe all your address books at once inside a single account.

Hi,
sorry I probably wasn’t precise enough. I did uninstall the old version and installed newly the new version. The multiple address books per account is one of the reasons why I wanted to switch. What do you refer to “if the server is configured correctly”? In owncloud/nextcloud I simply create my address books. I see the full list of address books in Davdroid, so it basically seems to work. It is just that visibility switch. I tried to produce a log, but I am not able to see anything relevant in it.
The generated config file is:
0_1497421669381_debug.txt -
I did a test on https://demo.nextcloud.com in the assumption that these instances are configured correctly. I added the address book app and created two address books: book1 and book2. I created two contacts, one for each address book. Then I synced using davdroid. It showed the same issue, so I assume it is a general davdroid issue.

Hello,

I can reproduce the error kalle is reporting and it is still there in the latest version of davdroid.
Steps to recreate (german text):
- Goto standard contacts app.
- Select “angezeigte Kontakte” from the three-dot menu.
- Scroll down to “Personalisieren”.
- Select only one or two of your existing contacts adressbooks and press OK.
- Only a few contacts from the selected adressbooks are shown.
- Goto Android Settings - Accounts - DAVDroid Adressbook - and start sync.
- Go back to standard contacts app and open again “angezeigte Kontakte” - “Personalisieren”. The former deactivated adressbooks are reactivated and more than the previous selected contacts are shown in the app.
While using CardDAV-Sync from dmfs this problem does not occur.
Kind regards

If I would have any clue where to search for the cause, I would let you know.

I have sent an .apk for testing over email. Please let me know whether it works for you.

I have made a short test. With the testing build the problem seems to be solved. I will test with two additional devices and provide the results.
