Not me though, my main calendar is also Outlook in my notebook. I sync no more than a month schedule into my mobile.

Why do you have to backup every month? Entries will be lost??? Your main calendar is in your PC/notebook right?

Well no, I use my phone to key in my appts as I make them most of the time while on the phone with my clients. And my phone is the most handy to have around, ever since I ditched my trusty ol' Palm Tungsten smile.gif So without the calendar info on my phone, I'm pretty much screwed. I merely sync contacts and calendar to Outlook as a safety net, in case I lose my phone (stolen once). This is also the reason that once I was back on Symbian at that time, I didn't dare switch to other OSes for fear of data migration problems/inconsistencies. Sms is also an integral part of my working life. Price quotes, client requirements etc.

Thanks for the input smile.gif  Anyway I already managed to do it via some workaround. You'll be surprised that many ppl actually keep all their data, some as far back as the late 90s! I needed this info from back in 2006 as it relates to my work. Supposed to have more entries dating back to Y2k, but those got lost while syncing on WinMo lol. The only regret now is not being able to transfer my sms messages from my N97 Mini, had to resort to exporting it as a CSV file and saving as an Excel worksheet.

Back to the calendar thing. I've never had any problems in the past, syncing between WinMo or Symbian to Outlook, there was always an option to sync from a prescribed period in years before and after. Just a bit strange that Android only allows from one month ago. It's like trying to say you must back up at least once a month, or some of your older entries will be lost. sad.gif

rclxms.gif Yeah... congrats for the achievement.

I'm also using this kind of approach. My office calendar, contacts etc. is in outlook (What to do exchange connection) and sync to my office phone. My personal calendar, contacts etc. is at Google and sync with my Desire.

Just to add on. With the way HTC Sync is set up, if I don't sync my calendar every month there will be voids in my phone calendar, wouldn't it?

guys, is it possible to downgrade the radio? I am on AuraxTSense 7.8.1 with radio 32.48.00.32U_5.11.05.14. Find that battery drain quite fast. Plan to downgrade back to 32.44. Is it that I just have to reflash the 32.44 radio?

Download MIUI ROM and the English pack from HERE

1) Flash the ROM first with full wipe as this is ur first MIUI flash
2) Reboot to MIUI which will be in chinese
3) Flash again the English pack

If you are coming from Sense or Vanilla ROMs, i guarantee MIUI will be a "refreshing" encounter!

The idea is - a mobile is a temporary device for you to store new appointments, tasks or contacts as you meet customers.
When you're back in office, it is vital to sync it back into your PC. Not only as a backup but you will be using the PC in office most of the time, right?
Without a sync, how are you going to email (using ur PC) to a new contact or refer to an updated shedule from the PC itself?

It is dangerous to store everything in a mobile or use it as the main device for storing important items without frequent syncing to a PC.
That's why you are complaining about lost calendars entries.

Sorry, I do not sync with FB as I sync with Google contacts. I think I did come across people saying cant sync with FB in XDA.
Syncing with FB has been a bug with some other ROMs too (I read in XDA not from my experience)

Yes, it comes with A2SD+ but somehow mine needs to be reactivated when I flash MIUI.
I think you are familiar with ADB commands right? You need to use the a2sd command to reactivate it.

The same guide (re-activate a2sd+) is in the xda forum which I posted above...dunno which specific page though.

So far no known bugs. I havent actually thorougly tested the rom.
But hey...FM is really working!!! something i missed in OD

You need file manager app and look into sdcard under "downloads" folder. Don't confuse with "download" folder.
