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.
