Back again. I had everything working using SyncML on the Droid and then Canonical did an update.... Broke everything. Ubuntu 14.04LTS on the server side. SyncEvolution 1.4.1, updated from this page https://syncevolution.org/documentation/installation Incidentally, this procedure does not work for Ubuntu. What DOES work is to put the deb http://downloads.syncevolution.org/apt stable main in /etc/apt/sources.list And then fire off the Snynaptics package manager. Do an update and the new version will appear. It automatically de-installs the old version. I used this page https://syncevolution.org/wiki/synchronizing-evolution-http-howto For my initial, first setup. My version of the configure command is syncevolution --configure --template SyncEvolution_Client \ --sync-property remoteDeviceId=f87b7a5a6b3c-A000002278B6A4_pro \ --sync-property username=fredandjake \ --sync-property password=xxxxxxxx \ --source-property addressbook/uri=contacts \ --source-property calendar/uri=events \ --source-property todo/uri=tasks \ --source-property memo/uri=notes \ default When I ran that command, it outputted the following: [INFO] addressbook: looking for databases... [INFO] addressbook: okay [INFO] calendar: looking for databases... [INFO] calendar: okay [INFO] memo: looking for databases... [INFO] memo: okay [INFO] todo: looking for databases... [INFO] todo: okay After the above config, the connection would time out after several minutes. Using a packet sniffer, I saw SyncML send the userid and the MD5 password hash but no response from the server. Prowling through the actual config files and found that in ~/.config/syncevolution/default/peers/default/config.ini --config had set the password to -. - tells syncevolution to stop and prompt for a password, something it obviously can't do since it's running as a daemon. I put the correct password in the "password = " field and the address and calendar synced properly. Tasks and notes remain broken, even after several days of troubleshooting. With the todo list, SyncML syncs with SOMETHING, just not Evolution. On the initial run I got a successful sync but 0 contents. There are about 30 in Evolution. I made a dummy entry on the Droid and that was transmitted to the server and SyncML now shows 1 task. I haven't been able to find out where the syncevolution is putting this data. Notes is simply dead. I've tried every name I can think of but get the "not found" error message. Here's the console output on an unsuccessful notes run [DEBUG 2014-07-14 14:33:48,404] twisted: Log opened.

I've been working with Beat Forster at Synthesis (best tech support I've ever gotten!). We're both stumped. Patrick, he said that you might be able to help with this. Todo list I can kinda live without but I gotta have Memos. I have a ton of both personal and work-related stuff in there. Any help will be most gratefully appreciated.
