Steps to reproduce:
- Have OpenTasks installed before DavDroid as per installation instructions
- Connect to an existing CalDav account.
- On account creation, DavDroid asks which Task Lists should be synchronised.
- Opening OpenTasks correctly show the Lists.
- Now create a List on your CalDav server.
- Going to DavDroid and hitting refresh doesn’t add the new list, nor is there an interface to add the list.
Suggestions:
- Allow a “Automatically add new Lists from the CalDav account” when creating accounts and check for new Lists automatically on sync.
Thanks for a great app!!!

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.

Suggestion: warn if sync has been failing for a long time

Hi,

I have been using DAVdroid for a long time (thanks for developing this very useful tool!), but I recently noticed that synchronization with my server had stopped working for over 2 months without any warning. The underlying issue was entirely my fault (the caldav server software was no longer up), but I was surprised that I didn’t have any warning from DAVdroid about the fact that sync had been broken for so long. You can notice this in the setting (which gives the date of the last successful sync), but you have to look for it to make sure.

I think it would be nice if DAVdroid notified the user if sync has been unable to complete since a long time (say, 1 week, but ideally a configurable delay).

What do you think?

Best,

Hi,

Same as https://forums.bitfire.at/topic/2136/lists-syncing-contents-not? Can you provide logs? Without verbose information, we’re not able to say “why”.
