The option to sync calendars is missing from the list for my 2 Google accounts, following some issues with syncing after which I deleted calendar data and calendar storage data.

I have tried reloading the accounts and all the other options come back - except the Calendar sync!!

Please help..

  • have you tried adding a 3rd google account; preferably using mobile data, not wifi? see if that brings back calendar sync. – geffchang Feb 18 '14 at 17:36
  • Creating a new account hasn't helped. Also if I go into the standard Android calendar (I use aCalendar usually) and try to add an account, there are no Gmail (and I now have 3) accounts listed... – Karillion Feb 18 '14 at 18:10
  • sonofabitch - it worked! How I don;t know, but something has changed and restored the sync. Many thanks – Karillion Feb 18 '14 at 18:18

Try adding a new Google account, preferably via mobile data instead of Wi-Fi. It should restore the calendar sync option.

I am assuming you are on a rooted device.

Use your preferred file explorer to browse to : /system/app

There should be two apk files. One the calendar app (calendar.apk) and the other calendarprovider.apk. The second apk provides proper synchronization between the google account and the actual calendar application which is probably missing or not working.

You should be able to find a replacement apk for your specific device and rom on XDA.
