Google Calendar, no location picture on P20 Pro but on P10+ ?! - Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi, All
I'm using P20 Pro CLT-L04, 8.1.0.122 (C792). Just found out that Google Calendar event's location picture won't show up under Schedule display mode, once added an event with a specific location, it shows the location picture for just a couple of seconds, then its gone. Anyone has the same issue? It works perfectly fine on my P10+ phone with Android 8.0, using the same Google login account.

Could anyone help for checking this to see if you have the same issue? Thanks.

All is working fine here. Try to delete cache and data.

Thank u so much. What I found the odd is that as long as I turned the Sync Calendar option off, the location picture stays, once turned that option on, the pictures were gone right away.
Not sure if it's because I used the same Google account on 2 different versions of android phones, one 8.1, another 8.0 which location pics works without issue.

Agenda widget taking a long time to load

Hey guys,
I was wondering, if anyone else has experienced this.
I use the HTC Calendar Agenda widget on one of my home screens, and sometimes it seems to never load entires. The calendar also does this at this the same time. The loading icon appears, but not entries ever appear. Anyone else got this problem?
Thanks
Lots of views, so I assume that no one else has had this problem? Any ideas for a solution.
I have had this problem aswell. I noticed a few times that it done it when the sync icon was displayed.
Will monitor this to see if it only happens when the handset is syncing.
Just seen my handset starting to sync again so i opened the Calendar and it has stopped at the Loading... screen again. So looks like it is waiting for the sync to finish before showing the agenda.
Is this the same with your handset?
Ok sync now finished. As soon as it finished the agenda displayed instantly.
I will need to check if it only happens when the phone is syncing or not. Thanks for the info though.
Hey guys, I will see if I can replicate and fix this problem. I can think of a few reasons it might happen so hopefully I can squeeze a fix into the next release.

I am confused. The next release of what exactly?
I am simply using the HTC Agenda widget, so I don't see how you can fix it?
Lol, sorry, I thought you meant Android Agenda Widget
I think it is still a bug in AAW so I will try and fix it anyways
I'm still getting problems with this if anyone can help?
i had this problem too, i deleted the calenda data and let it redownload events from gmail and now its is fine
Cool. Thanks mate. Is there a fast way of deleting all the data? Still fairly new to Android

I think the way to do it would be to goto your Account & Sync options and remove and re-add your google account.
Unless there is another way

actually the way i did it was go into settings, applications, find the calendar and select clear data
then just wait till it syncs to gmail and downloads all your events again

Just to update, i done this and all seems to be working fine for now.
My Facebook birthdays and events disappeared also and wouldn't come back, so i cleared my Facebook for HTC Sense data also and went through the setup wizard for Facebook again. After sync they all appeared again fine.
So far calendar is running smooth. Fingers crossed it continues.

P10 Calendar problems

I like feature to get my phone in silent mode when in the meeting, which is automated in P10! But...
...I have a version of VTR-L09C432B113 and I'm facing a problem with calendar app. After few days of use, I believe my calendar DB get corrupted somehow as it works fine until then. I did clear cache and deleted account corporate calendar associated to it which did fix the problem (Google calendar events worked fine!). However, I face similar problem just after two days later (Now both google and corporate calendars are not visible anymore), plus app gets crashing. I also have a google calendar sync activated to the google account and I have read that other Huawei phones have had a different kind of problems with it. I also tried to install google calendar after 2nd-time problem occurred as a tryout and it seems that google app get crashing as well => which leads my assumption that problem is in the object where calendar events are stored or so.
Questions:
1) Could I just delete this calendar object (common for both apps?) which has meeting/event info in w/out re-creating account every 2 days&Clearing data? If yes, where it´s located and how could I do it?
2) is this known issue in Huawei P10 or other new models?
3) Do you know if "automatic silence"- feature in phone work with google calendar?
Thanks for info!

Duplicated contact

I've noticed strange issue with contacts.
All of them are duplicated if I'll access them from "Phone" app.
What's strange, is while accessing them from "Contacts" app all looks good.
Also contacts on Gmail account are fine.
Can anyone check this please?

I was facing same problem but after updating phone app problem gone and my auto sync is off also
Same problem here, both with Android 8 and 8.1, until the last version of the Phone app. All the contacts with WhatsApp, Telegram, etc information are duplicated. I don't know if it's a problem of the app and so the resolution must be from Google or of Android.
I think it's a Google problem, because in Google Messages and Google Contacts and in other apps that access contacts all is fine.
I think the problem is with the stock Android
It's a bug in the Nokia dialer. Google contacts app is fine.

The dialer is from Google We have the Google Phone app, like Nexus and Pixel. Just to specify.
However, I also believe that the problem is with the dialer.
My dialer updated a couple of weeks ago and the issue was resolved.
I have up to date dialer and contact app but problem still exists.

You are right, it's the official Google dialer. Oneplus had the same issues, so did the essential phone and the Mi A1. For as far as I can see they fixed it with a software update.
Hi people, i still have this issue unfortunately, duplicated contact... I have now the last update, i did the reset phone twice, but still the same issue... Anyone can help ?

Same for me, worked fine on mate 20 pro and p20 pro
Anyone else experiencing this? Or have s fix to it?
I now get a different message: "this account is using a custom passphrase. This is not supported at the moment" (translated from german, will not be 100% correct)
Anyone have a fix for this yet? Very annoying.
Same here. Google Smart lock for passwords is not working. Also Huawei smart passwords isn't working too. It was terrible to remember all the usernames and passwords for all the app.

Google contacts and Google Photos problems

As you see in the title, I have 2 problems. I am using Redmi K20 Pro 8/128Gb variant with CN Rom. I have tried unlocking the bootloader but 800h have to pass ?. Here are the problems:
1. Google contacts won't sync. No matter what I tried I cannot get them to start syncing. I have installed Contacts Sync Adapter 8.1 and 9.0, gave them all permissions, also installed Google Contacts app gave it also all permissions, and I was not able to get my contacts. In the settings, under Google Sync, contacts are not shown, just people details. If anyone had this issue, can help me resolve it, I will appreciate.
2. Google photos won't backup. I am getting same message since I have bought the phone: Getting ready to backup, and the number of photos is rising as I take photos. The app also has all permissions, the WiFi is good, the folders that I want to backup are selected, Google account has 14gb free but I am using unlimited photo storage. Tried reinstalling, clearing cache and/or data of the app, nothing starts the backup. Please guys, help ?.
Thanks in advance

No Idea about google photos sync but for contacts, make sure you have installed https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-contacts-sync/
give it all permissions, set it to autostart and disable battery saver. Then reboot the phone and you should see it able to sync in google.

I don't care about the NFC but I have to wait to unlock the bootloader, or is it possible to do without unlocking it?

You would have to wait sadly
I did face the same issue (Mi 9T) with Google Photos not syncing while connected to WiFi and I solved it in a silly way (I hate MIUI). I just enabled "cellular data back up" in Google Photos settings.
MIUI has removed the option to set WiFi saved networks as metered/unmetered, so the phone will treat WiFi-Hotspot and LTE modems as data not as WiFi.
