[android] ActiveSync alternative for Calendar

[Cache]

Hi all

 

Wonder if someone could help me out, but not sure where to post it really.

 

I want to synchronise a calendar from a users Office 365 Mailbox to their Android phone, but I only want their calendar and nothing else.

 

For some reason, I can do the initial sync for the calendar with ActiveSync but then a day or two later it stops synchronising between the phone and Office 365. If I delete the connection and recreate it, then it will work again for a day or two and then stop.

 

OWA for Android isn't a viable option because that will also pull down the email which for other reasons we do not want to happen.

 

Anyone any ideas as to how to help solve it or provide another option for synchronising the calendar? I'm not really bothered if it means using another app of some description as long as it is only the calendar.

 

Thanks

I just added the mailbox to my s5 email app and set the calendar as the only feature to sync and have had no issues with it at all.

I would add it as a normal email account and just stop the sync for everything but email don't see any reason why that will stop working.

I only want the calendar, not email and that's what I've done but ActiveSync stops syncing the calendar after a day.

This is what's confusing me now - I've added a different mailbox onto the device and that calendar syncs. I've added the users mailbox to my work mobile and that has been syncing ok for the past 2 days too.

 

Doing my head in now.
