Hello,

in case anyone is interested, here is a short report what I found out:

+ I tested mobileorg on my Android phone without encryption and with 
synchronization via Ubuntu one. Seems to work. However: I do not want to 
store unencrypted org-files on a remote server.

+ I am able to enscrypt files through emacs but I am not able to decrypt 
these files on my smartphones.

+ I was confused reading something like "Be sure you are using MobileOrg 
1.5+ and Org-mode 7.02+" and "Next, open MobileOrg and enter your 
encryption password in the Settings tab. Perform a sync, and you are 
done." [1] It turned out, that this is only meant for the iPhone version.

+ It seems to be possible to set up decryption via APG on an Android 
phone but I have not found out how. See e.g. [2] I found other hints on 
the web, which state, that all files to be used by mobileorg and 
enscryption should have a file ending like "pgp". Some people say you 
have to decrypt files manually. I stopped experimenting though, it 
obviously seems quite complecated.

+ Nevertheless it's very tempting to have all my org-notes and schedules 
on my phone. I will wait until I can manage to make sure that encryption 
is being used.

Thanks
Martin
