Can we get Side Sync to work on Nexus 7?



Need a good app that I can use to share my screen to other devices and vice versa. I know for Samsung devices there is SideSync.

Anything else out there?

Thanks,

Bluetooth connection of Keyboard sync Android and Windows



I have a bluetooth-keybord for my dual-boot Tablet with Android and Win 8.1
If I connect on Android, I have to enter some digits, to pair the bluetooth-keyboard.

If I shutdown android and start windows, I have to unpair the old Connection with the Keyboard (I've made in prev. Sessions) and repair it.

If I switch back to android, I've to do the same thing. Unpair, and Repair again.

I'm not sure, but I think, if I enter the digits which shown at the screen of pairing Dialoge, the Keyboard will save this as part of it's connection.
And because on Windows I got other Digits to pair the Keyboard, this saved Key is changed.

Isn't here a way (or App), which make me able to preset the Number I need to enter in the Keyboard for pairing it?
In this way, I could use the same pairing-key on win and android and don't need to unpair and repair the Keyboard all the time if I switch the OS

Hope you understand what I mean.

Unable to sync Google contacts with tablet (Android)



Hi all,
I have just taken delivery of my X98 air 3g tablet and have setup the android side with my gmail account details, but there appears to be no way to enable syncing with my gmail contacts. In the account options it doesn't list contacts, and in the contact app I can only add two types of account, corporate or game centre account.
Can anybody please advise me if there is any way to access my gmail contacts on this tablet in android mode (I haven't even thought about syncing the windows 10 side yet :( ).
Many thanks for any advise
Keith

HTC Sync Manager says update needed even though I'm on the lastest version.



I finally unlocked my bootloader and immediately ran into problems. I went to restore my phone to one of sync managers backups but when I connect my phone to my pc, I get a popup within sync manager saying "update needed, This device needs to connect with the latest version of HTC Sync Manager. Please check for update or download". Weird thing is that I'm on the lastest version, version 3.1.54.2. I just can't get sync to work. Can someone please give me a solution?

Phone Stats:
One M8 (At&t) 5.0.2
Unlocked bootloader

How to sync personal dictionary between devices (Google Keyboard)?



I also have installed Google Keyboard app on my tablet and have selected my main Google account as the sync account. The dictionary was initially empty but I have added some words. I also pressed "Sync now" after adding the words.

I have also installed the Google Keyboard app on my phone and just have also selected the same account as on the tablet and have pressed "Sync now". BUT the dictionary hasn't transferred to my phone.

Any ideas on how to make this will work? Thanks! :)



Problem with sync FB contacts to android's address book.



Hi. I am new here.
I have problem with sync contacts from Facebook on my smartfon with Android 4.4.4 (Samsung Galaxy Core Prime LTE). It was working about 1 or 2 weeks ago, now doesn't work. Android doesn't download even 1 contacts from Facebook to his address book.
I logged out from Facebook application, deleted account Facebook from account in address book. Then added Facebook account again, logged in in Facebook application. Switch on sync all contacts and setup contacts to show for google account and Facebook account. Sync was completed and nothing was downloaded.
I don't know how can I fix this up.

PS: Facebook application was reinstalled, doesn't help..
PS2: application such sync.me doesn't download any FB contacts , too.

SERIOUS PROBLEM: Google Contacts Sync generates xxx amount copy of each contact!



Hi all.

My set-up: LG G4, Lollipop 5.1, not rooted.
Google Account, Outlook.com, LinkedIn, Skype etc.

The proplem is that during my night-time, Google Contacts Sync starts syncing my contacts (to somewhere; the are NOT visible in my Google account) generating xxx copies of each contact. I have no exact timeline when this has started to realize, but by using Simpler Contacts 5.0.2 (paid version) I was able to clean that horrible mess (took overall ~5 hours with 55.000+ contacts).

Currently I have disabled all contacts syncing.

So should I:

1) Copy all my contacts to Google (already exported cleaned .vcf to my SD card) and import that to Google account?
2) Do something else, what?

What an earth is causing that!?!?

Much appreciated.

BR,
Timo



Android M Doze and gmail sync.



Right This is probably more an android in geenral thing...
When I'm using my computer I tend to use my N5 as a notification device for emails (ever since google disabled support for gmail notifier).
Anyways, that's worked quite well for some time, my phone happily rings away whenever I get emails or I see the notification LED flashing away to let me know there's something there...until I've installed the OTA for Marshmallow.

Because of Doze and leaving the phone alone for quite a while at a time...it doesn't sync my gmail whenever i get a mail...which is kind of annoying as I do like to get my mail notifications as they come in.

Since monday I've been searching around trying to figure out if there's any way to get gmail to sync during doze but so far I havent had any luck at all...I'm starting to feel like it's impossible to keep gmail syncing during doze due to googles decision it shouldn't :| And I'm very much tempted to revert to 5.1.1.

Any ideas? Thanks

[Q] auto sync ebooks epub/pdf/txt across my NST and other android devices



here's what I want to achieve... download an ebook/epub on my android phone or tablet and have the ebook automatically downloaded to my NST.

Is there such app? It's so much easier to search and download epub on my phone or tablet than the NST which has an horrible touch screen. I want to be able to download an ebook on my phone, read it and continue reading on my NST all automatically..

is there an app for that or a setup to achieve this?
