Synchronizing DejaOffice with the Android applications
DejaOffice stores data in a separate database than the Android contacts and calendar applications that came with the device. You can synchronize DejaOffice with the Android applications, though. Doing so allows you to utilize features that integrate only with the Android application - caller I.D., for example, or take advantage of the categorization features of DejaOffice.

Enabling the synchronization between DejaOffice and the Android Applications
To turn on the synchronization between DejaOffice and the Android contact or calendar applications, open DejaOffice Settings > Sync Settings > Tap to select 'Sync with Android Contacts (Calendar) App'.
Selecting an Android account
The Android contact and calendar applications allow you to have multiple accounts - some that can synchronize to and from the application. DejaOffice has to pick one of these to read & synchronize to.
This setting is located in DejaOffice Settings > Sync Settings > Under Sync with Android contacts, tap the Account button.
If you do not see all your contacts after enabling sync with native, Android is likely hiding them from display. Click here for more information.
Synchronizing new records from the Android contact and calendar applications to DejaOffice
When you create a new contact or calendar record in the Android contact application, the contact must be assigned to the account selected in DejaOffice.
How you assign a new record to an Android account varies by device. Click here to find information for your specific device.
When to use the Read Android data feature
After you enable the synchronization with the Android applications, the "Read Android Data" icon will appear on the home page of DejaOffice.
If you synchronize directly to a PC application via USB, Wi-Fi or our Hosted Wireless synchronization:
You will not use this icon in your regular synchronizing. In special instances, you may be instructed by support or the knowledge base to use it for troubleshooting.
If you synchronize via Google over the air with the Android applications:
You will need to tap on "Read Android Data" to prompt DejaOffice to read the Android applications. Information added directly to DejaOffice will automatically sync to the applications without any action.
