G'day fellow Android users,
I've been struggling with this problem for quite a while now and thought I'd give these boards a chance I am posting this on behalf of a customer of mine. This is my first post, please be gentle.
The problem:
A microsoft exchange user is having diffculties synchronizing calendar events using Exchange ActiveSync to synchronize with MS Exchange 2007. He is using an HTC Desire S and has recently upgraded to Android 2.3.5. Creating new calendar events in both the phone and in Outlook 2007 works fine. Deleting these same events is also no problem at all; with the phone set to pushmail the events immediately disappear when deleted in Outlook and vice versa.
Now here is the actual issue, when we change the details of an event in MS Outlook, for instance the title or the appointment time, it does not get synchronized on the phone. Changes in events made on the phone do get synced properly. It works one way only. Salient detail; the phone 'sees' the change, because the very second I alter an event in MS Outlook, I see the android synchronization icon appear for a split second. This makes it look like it has updated the event, but the details remain unchanged.
What I have tried: messing around with pretty much all settings - Frequency/download old e-mails/synchronize previous events/size limit/etc. Nothing seems to have effect. Obviously I have tried to manually sync, both by just setting the agenda as the only item to sync and using refresh within the agenda application. I've also deleted the entire account and recreated that. Ofcourse at that point the changes in the MS Outlook agenda are seen because it needs to resync the entire thing anew.
I am hoping for some advice, would be great to resolve this thing without having to go back to Android 2.3.4 (seeing as how the problem seemed to have started occuring ever since the update, it worked fine a couple of weeks ago).
Cheers in advance for any input!
Wouter
