[Q] Smoothsync for iCoud account keeps deleting - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

I downloaded a great app called Smoothsync for Icloud that allowed my droid calender to sync with my icloud.com calender. However, since using it on my Note 3 my icloud account for Smoothsync keeps disapearing . I have to keep going into Accounts and adding this account all the time. Any ideas on what it could be please? thanks.

Same here.
Go back to the play store and look at that devs other apps.
You'll see a 'JB fix' app for a bunch of apple progs. Select the calendar one and install.
It will fix this problem.
Great app BTW. Works beautifully.

Today I tried looking for the JB Fix , I saw an app / patch called JB Workaround by Marten Gajda, is this patch I need? If so, I installed it but unsure what to do next?
Thanks,

Contacts/SNS (not SMS) replacement

Hello guys!
I am actually one of the few that enjoys Samsung's SNS thingy - I open up a contact and see their Facebook status and whatnot.
I also change ROMs often, and I end up reinstalling or restoring all the SNS components, which forces me to re-join contacts, manually delete duplicate birthdays and whatnot.
Is there a replacement you know of? I mean, an independent contacts app which syncs to Google and Facebook (and possibly Twitter, LinkedIn) and does the contact management externally? That way, whenever I install a new ROM, I will just restore this app and have my contacts as they should.
Any help would be appreciated!

I tried googling it but didn't find any. Can you post the market link?
I am trying to replace the stock contact app altogether - it may sync with Google, but I want it to be rom-independent. Like Dolphin to browsers and GoSMS to messages.
Have a look at this:

It doesn't help, and I even bought it...
No solutions, eh?...
contacts by contapps ltd (search contapps) in the market.
SmartR contacts beta by Xobni in the market.

Tried them both. They both don't help as they just display the existing contacts - so I am still required to use Samsung's SNS to sync the Facebook data. My point is to stop using SNS but remain with the same functionality.
I'm giving up
Probably forfeit the need to use the SNS features.

How do I get Google Now to show

Holding the menu key down does bring up the Google search, but going through the settings I don't see anything for Google Now. I don't have Google +. Is this needed? I added a valid gmail accound as well to my phone.
Figured it out. I needed to make the gmail account the primary account. I tried to delete the thread but perhaps it will be helpful to someone else.
I see it in the notification pulldown, but not in the top bar. Wonder if there's a setting for that.

In the google (now) app, there's a Privacy and accounts option in the settings when you hit menu. Click on that and click google account to choose which one to use. It'd be nice if we could use a non gmail account with Google Now. My university (utexas) partners with gmail, so it technically is gmail but without some of the perks like google now.

Thanks for the info, I just checked I don't even have the Google now app icon anywhere, I might have chosen not to use it when I first setup the phone, ... what can I do to get it back?

It's the Google app. The one that searches.
OK I found it just open Google search, setting, there is option to turn it on,...played with it for two minutes, I found it no use to me, turn it back off...

I you use chrome and search for a landmark, after you find it, say a specific McDonald's, next time you open google now it will present you with navigation to that McDonalds.
Google now is amazing. I arrived at BWI on Sunday and when I turned my phone on, it had directions to the hotel up, restaurants listed near the hotel, and the local weather. It does sometjing similar at home too. Probably one of the nicest upgrades thats functional.

Slide notes share with evernote ?

I love the idea of the Qslide notes but wondered if there was any way to share it and save on evernote?
Sent from my LG-E980 using Tapatalk 2
I would like to know too. Samsung S-Memo lets you sync with Evernote. Hopefully Qslide notes has this as well!
I just checked right now and it gives the option to Sync with Google Docs, but not Evernote.

Thanks. That's probably okay - at least there will be a backup of sorts. Does it have a setting to sync automatically?

I don't think so. It just gives a Backup option, then when you select the Google Docs option it says : Upload to or Download From. So I don't think it Syncs.
*my Google account needs an Auth Key, and doesn't play well with signing in, so I can't confirm if there's an actual sync option afterwards.

Okay thanks. I hope to pick one up this evening so maybe I'll play with it some too and see if I can figure something out.

pekr according to the wife she has not set any accounts up on her Tab 4 which is probably right because she keeps asking me what to do.How do I check which google account her tab is using.Thanks Longlegs
Just check the gmail in her tab 4. If its contain yours then it is on the same account.
Or look at play store account. Or just look at account in settings

HTC 10 No longer scapes Facebook for contacts

Title says it all really, I had to install the social media.apk just to get facebook in blinkfeed
This seems like a huge step backwards I assume I'm missing something
Any info on this would be much appreciated
Probably part of the debloat. I use Sync.ME for the same features though.
I don't know if it did for the M8 or M9 either did it?

Do you know which apk controlled that? Just checked both devices and neither has Facebook contacts so it may be something I removed on the custom ROM.
I thought Facebook themselves killed that functionality a long time ago.
Hasn't worked on Samsung devices for a while. I'm wondering if it isn't a FB thing.
Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk
What the 10 doesn't have and I find a little odd is no Blinkfeed integration!
So it comes with Facebook and Messenger stubs but no Blinkfeed plugin.
It doesn't come with Twitter, but does come with a Twitter blinkfeed extension
It doesn't come with Google+, but does does come with a Google+ blinkfeed extension
;p

I'm not sure. All I know is that I could add my Facebook account and it'd match names and photos

I think at some point that was a Facebook feature that they killed off sadly.
Sync.me is a great tool for doing it tho!
My T-Mobile M8 did Facebook contact sync. I eventually reflashed to AT&T and lost that functionality. Later reflashed to the unlocked version and it was missing from that version by that time as well.
Just tried sync.me, wow it fixes what I've been missing for so long. How could I not have tried this app. I've tried so many others with no luck this works great thanks everyone

Yes but as far as I know sync.me only links facebook contact picture to contacts and no other information and it doesn't link the contact to their facebook page
Yes Facebook killed that feature. What worked for me on my M8, was to google facebook apk version 27(I may have the apk in dropbox). That version had the sync contact setting. Once you did this your contacts will be back and then you can update back to the latest fb apk.

This is the method for syncing fb contacts if you dont wish to install other apps. facebook removed the contact sync from the app a while ago and an old app is needed to sync them them updating the app is possible.

Nothing to do with HTC, it was Facebook who discontinued the feature unfortunately. Use Sync.ME.

Not compatible with device.

I tried installing the older Facebook app and keep getting an "app not installed" error. Could it be because of the Facebook app already loaded on the device...even though it's not the full app?
