Hi

 

I set up MobileOrg and it now shows the appointments from my emacs diary and
my orgmode agenda. But nothing shows in my local android calendar, although
I configured MobileOrg to sync with the android calendar. Is this
functionality known to work, at all, and are there any special preconditions
?   I tried with two different smartphones - a Sony Xperia Pro with Android
4.0.4, and a Mobistel Cygnus with Android 4.4.2

 

Many thanks

Regards - Chris

It syncs with my calendar on cyanogenmod latest nightly snapshot on a
Nexus 4.  I've had no issues in this regard in a very long time.

I think what I am using is roughly equivalent to android 5.1?  Not
entirely sure however but definitely well past 4.x versions.  Whether
this is relevant or not is unclear!

It has also worked for me for a long time in several tablets/phones. Right
now it is working on two tablets (BQ edison 3 and Nexus 7) with stock
android 4.4 and a phone with stock android 5. It has worked in the past
with Android 4.1.

Contrary to many mentions on the mailinglist, this feature never
worked at my side as well:

Nexus 5 with CyanogenMod 12.1-20150808-NIGHTLY-hammerhead (Android
5.1.1)

Current situation: in MobileOrg settings, I want to choose a
calendar which gets populated by MobileOrg. In the list of available
calendars I can choose whatever calendar I want but afterwards,
MobileOrg shows "Org" (the default one) as the selected calendar.

Maybe it has something to do with my disabled sync settings: I don't
sync to the Google cloud.

I gave up and use MobileOrg mainly for capturing and (seldom)
browsing my Org files for information.

Hummm... I am just looking at the config in my phone (with Android 5). I
have checked "Synchronize with calendar". The calendar name is set to
"org-calendar" (I think that is the default, since I do not recall ever
having changed/set it). Under "Advanced" I set "Assimilate calendar
entries" (this I find very useful for the odd case when i enter things in
the android calendar directly).  I have NOT checked "Delete on
assimilation".

I do not understand why the following is leading to trouble, so I think I
am seriously misunderstanding something.

I do not recall ever having to do anything especial here.

> In the list of available calendars

You mean the list that is available when you try to set the options under
"Calendar name"?

I see there six entries (one for my gmail user, one for "PC Sync" that I
have no idea what it is, then "org-calendar", a fourth called "Cumpleaños"
[birthdays] and then "Holidays in Spain" and a sixth one which seems to be
the same but in Spanish).

If I understand correctly, this is used by MobileOrg to place its entries
in a calendar that the Android calendar will use. When the entries are
displayed in your Android calendar, you'll see these as coming from "Org"
(or mobile-org).


Why would you not want to set it to "Org"?

>

Aha, I think this is probably needed. I think I only get entries updated if
I enable syncing of the calendar (but you can decide what you sync with
google --- no need to sync everything, from email to contacts to ....).

Check.

Mine is "Org". But in my calendar app, there is no "Org" calendar,
just three others.

Same here.

Yes.

I do have three entries, non of them named "Org".

Whenever I choose an existing calendar within MobileOrg preferences,
it stays at the non-existing "Org" calendar. I guess this is the
reason why there is no data sync to my calendar.

Exactly.

> Why would you not want to set it to "Org"?

I don't have an existing "Org" calendar and I could not figure out
how to create it in my calendar app and MobileOrg obviously doesn't
create it on its own.

OK, then MobileOrg -> Calendar feature is of no use to me since I
avoid the Google cloud.

That's really weird since this feature is especially useful to
people not having Google Cloud sync activated.

OK, at least I got a confirmation that MobileOrg needs this cloud
sync stuff. How unfortunate.

I am not 100% sure if syncing the calendar with google is _required_. I'll
try playing with it ASAP and report back.

Okay. A little bit confused now:

When I checked MobileOrg a couple of minutes ago, I did see some
(not all!) Org-mode events for the first time. Only scheduled
things, no events with time-slots. I did not check any further.

I recognized, that MobileOrg settings is showing me the previously
selected existing calendar.

In calendar, I noticed that sync was activated. Grrrrr. I hate it,
when something silently leaks my private data to the public cloud!

After I disabled the sync-checkboxes for my three calendars, the
Org-mode events were gone again.

Quite disappointing, the whole story.

I use an app (from the Play Store) called Offline Calendar. It makes Google
calendars that do not sync. I have mobile org write to a calendar it
creates and never sync calendars on my phone or tablet. It works on my
nexus 7 and my Moto G. It also worked on the Nexus 4 and an ancient 2.x
Android Samsung phone.

Best,

Yes, I just want to chip in here and say that synchronizing with the
google cloud is not necessary at all for mobileorg calendar integration
to work. I use the same application (in fact from F-droid) to create
local non-cloud calendars and mobileorg uses it nicely.

Karl, I am sorry I can provide no additional help here and that the whole
thing is frustrating. I've been using mobile-org for several years without
much tweaking and, yes, enabling (not happily) the syncing of calendar with
Google's cloud. That said, sometimes (for reasons I don't understand)
things do not work fully (the calendar is not updated completely, events
are missing, events get duplicated, etc). So this is not always 100%
reliable.

As for Android's calendar syncing with Google's cloud, and after reading
Brian van den Broek's and Bingo UV's comments about Offline Calendar, I
think I'll be trying that so I can get rid of the cloud.


Best,

R.

Thanks Ramon and Eric

Are you using custom agenda views ?   Someone wrote on the web that this is required - is he right ?

It has also worked for me for a long time in several tablets/phones. Right now it is working on two tablets (BQ edison 3 and Nexus 7) with stock android 4.4 and a phone with stock android 5. It has worked in the past with Android 4.1.

Not that I am aware of. Where would I have done that (so I can check)?

I am using some custom views but not sure if this is necessary for
calendar synchronisation.  It should be easy enough to test.  Create a
simple custom view, e.g.:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (setq org-agenda-custom-commands
        '(("l" "Location agenda view" agenda ""
           ((org-agenda-files '("~/s/notes/diary.org"))
            (org-agenda-ndays 1)
            (org-agenda-overriding-columns-format "%TIMESTAMP %60ITEM %20LOCATION")
            (org-agenda-view-columns-initially t)))))
#+end_src

and then push to and pull from mobileorg as required.
