Tasks not showing up on mobile calendar

(closed account) says:
What is the correct process to view tasks within the Calendar app on a Sprint HTC Hero (Android). I had it working though all the entries I was adding stopped appearing. They did, however, still show up in in the RTM. I am lost...I think this is what determines if I continue using RTM. It is an amazing app though I really want to see everything.

If you haven't done so already, would it be possible to submit an Android issue report via our support system?

Your report should provide all the info that we need to investigate further, but we'll be in touch via email if we require any more details.

Thanks!

Alright....so here is what I discovered. My RTM app on Android does EVERYTHING it is supposed to with the exception of taking out the trash (be nice if it could do that).

What I am encountering now is the Google Calendar stopped syncing any new tasks that I created.

I create a task in RTM online, copy the iCalendar(events) link and paste it in Google Calendar. Everything shows up with the exception of what I recently started creating. From what I can tell it has already finished indexing to.

OK....So it appears just after posting my previous message that the first test I did actually indexed (took a awfully long time) and is now in my calendar.

The second test has yet to show up in Google calendar. This one is taking even longer.

So as it stands the problem is tasks not showing up in Google calendar which is why they do not show up in Android.

Aside from this the RTM app on my android is amazing. Everything is working so I think I am just going to start having my tasks emailed to me rather than rely on the Google Calendar to sync with my android calendar.

I will submit an issue report though. I am not sure it is really RTM's problem though.

I just realized all TASKS do end up going into Google Calendar and then down to my device but the length of time his several hours. I did a test and the first one appeared within 10 minutes while the next one took 2.5 hours. The 3rd one has yet to show up and I am pushing 4 hours. Is it supposed to take this long? How can someone be task oriented when their tasks take so long to appear? I suppose this is not an RTM issue but a Google issue. I just wanted to pass the information on to you.

Here is an email that came from Google Enterprise Support. I am a premiere customer with the Google Apps for Domains........


Hi Ernest,

Well I have been able to recreate the error with my test domain. Some events are instantly added to GCal, others take approximately fifteen minutes, while another one has yet to appear! I'm going to consult our Calendar technician as this may either be a known issue, or a 3rd party (iCal or RTM) issue.

I'll keep plugging away at this until I've got a satisfactory answer. Thanks for the patience until I do.

Kind regards,

Brian

This is something that is generally on Google's end. (See this past topic.)

Keep us posted on what you find from Google.

Yeah, This really makes me want to reevaluate my position with using Google entirely. I am not sure of an alternate at this point. Very upset.
