GCALSYNC: synchronize your phone with Google Calendar Bookmark this page on deli.cio.us

Carry your Google Calendar in your pocket! GCalSync is an open source application that lets you do a two-way synchronization between Google Calendar and your phone's built-in calendar. Download events to your phone, or add an event on your phone and upload it to Google Calendar.

To install, visit http://wap.gcalsync.com with your phone's browser

 You can also download the files here if you prefer to install via USB, Bluetooth or infrared (see your phone's manual for how to do this).

gcalsync.jad gcalsync.jar signed version - for most phones
gcalsync.jad gcalsync.jar unsigned version - try this if your phone will not let you install the signed version
gcalsync.jad gcalsync.cod for Blackberry


Features

  • Download events from Google Calendar to your phone's calendar
  • Upload events created on the phone
  • If an event has been changed in Google Calendar since last sync it will be updated on the phone
  • Specify time period you want to sync as number of past days (default: 1) and number of future days (default 30)

GCalSync is still in its early stages, so expect some rough edges. Known limitations:

  • If an event has been changed on the phone, the changes will not be uploaded to Google Calendar
  • Reminders not supported
  • Recurring events are treated as multiple events

Supported phones

In theory, GCalSync should run on these phones:

Nokia
3152, 3155, 3155i, 5140i, 6060, 6101, 6102, 6152, 6155, 6155i, 6230i, 6235, 6235i, 6265, 6265i, 6270, 6280, 6611, 6630, 6680, 6681, 6682DP2, 6822, 7260, 7700, 8800, 8801, 9300, 9500, E70, N70, N90, N91, any Series 40 Development Platform 3 and later, any Series 60 Second Edition and later, any Series 80, any Series 90

Motorola
E770, E1070, L6, PEBL U6, RAZR V3 (CLDC 1.1), SLVR L7, V3x, V360

Sony Ericsson
K600, K608, K750, V600, W550, W600, W800, Z520, any JavaPlatform5 or newer

BlackBerry
Any, with software version 4.0 or newer

Other
Any that supports MIDP 2.0 and JSR 75: PDA Optional Packages for the J2ME Platform

If you get the message "Sorry, your phone is not supported" you are, unfortunately, out of luck. This means your phone does not support JSR 75: PDA Optional Packages for J2ME which GCalSync needs to access the phone calendar.

  • I've got a certificate error on my N95 with signed and unsigned... I am really disappointed with NOKIA certificate system !

    Anyway, could you update your SIS with a working one ?

  • Same problem on my SE G900. It says that the certificate used to sign the application was invalid at the time of signing.
