Hypermatix CalDAV Clients/Calendar Sync for Android
- Tries to synchronise the internal Android calendar store with a CalDAV server.
- "Free as in beer" in the app store
aCal CalDAV Client for Android
- aCal is a standalone calendar application which only supports calendars hosted on a remote CalDAV server.
- "Free as in software" with the source code available on gitorious under the GPL v3 license.
- The app store version of aCal is sold for a token NZD$2 (or equivalent) to discourage accidental installation by people who don't actually want a CalDAV client, and to help keep the author in beer and pizza.
caldav4j
- the caldav4j-apk is a free replacement for the google calendar which syncs with remote CalDAV servers.
CalDAV-Sync beta and CardDAV-Sync beta(dmfs / Marten Gajda)
- Synchronises the Android calendar with an arbitrary number of CalDAV servers.
- As of version 0.1.4 two-way synchronisation is stable and no longer "experimental".
- Available on the Android Market for ~2.50€ (as of 2011-08-28). CardDAV-Sync also comes in a free trial version.
- According to the author it will be released as open source once version 1.0 is reached
- Over a month of real-world use and not a single issue with it (User:Patrick Nagel)
Troubleshooting
If CalDAV-Sync and CardDAV-Sync don't sync or you cannot set up an account, check the following:
- You'll need at least PHP 5.2, for the DateTime class, since CalDAV-Sync seems to trigger the code paths for repeating events even if there are no repeating events in the calendar. (See also Setup_Failure_Codes/PHP_DateTime_class)
- Verify that Keep-Alives are enabled in your web server configuration (they're disabled by default in the stock Apache config on RedHat/CentOS/Fedora)
- Make sure you didn't change the DAV headers. Go to your DAViCal configuration file and look for a line beginning with
$c->override_dav_header = "..."
If that line exists comment it out or make sure it contains "addressbook" and "calendar-access". CalDAV-Sync and CardDAV-Sync won't sync if a collection is not advertised as calendar or address book by those headers.
FLOSS CalDAV sync adapter by Gérald Garcia
- Synchronise your calendar from a caldav calendar server.
- Fully integrated and transparent in Android account management.
- One way sync only for the moment.
