As a long time Palm user, currently using a Palm TX, this is a make or break feature
for me. There is clearly no future in Palm and I have been anxiously awaiting
syncing with Exchange notes and tasks before buying a Droid.

Google doesn't Care. People have been begging for this for some time. Because
these simple features do not exist the Droid phone are really designed for play and
NOT for business

I would also find this feature very useful. Please consider adding it. Integrated
corporate directory lookup would be great as well, the add-on app works but it feels
like a hack.

This is the ONLY feature preventing me from switching over from my blackberry. I love
everything else about the os- my last issue was the cdma version was not good for my
int'l travel to eurpoe but now that the SMS version is out I just need the full support
of exchange including tasks and notes. Otherwise it is truly a single device with
corp., personal messaging, music, navigation etc

Notes are nice, but tasks are HUGE. Notes may not be supported, but tasks are. Let's work with what we've got and get tasks working before we get too worked up about MS leaving stuff out of Exchange.
I used tasks on a daily basis before switching to my Droid. And although I'd never go back, I miss my tasks DEARLY.

Everyone to their own. In my case, Notes are huge and Tasks would be a nice-to-have. I use Notes heavily, but not tasks.
In any case, I think both are required because Mail, Contacts, Calendar, Tasks and Notes have kind of become a standard set

If Android developers add tasks, please remember to consider CATEGORIES.
Nokia forgot about those on their sync and the amount of grief it caused for users was considerable.
Sincerely hope that Notes and Tasks become part of the Android standard feature set.

@20 Yes, you can use Touchdown which I do for that but no notes sync.

Folks you have to stop complaining about Android not supporting notes, MS just NOW with Exchange 2010 has Notes as part of their Exchange Activesync protocol, it's not part of Exchange 2007 and earlier. Even Windows Mobile phones don't support Notes (though Windows Phone 7 probably will). Blackberry only supports notes through their own blackberry enterprise server, if you're not on that, then no notes for you...it's a dead horse for now.
Now, I will add that tasks should be added, that's been around on Exchange for ages. I've found Touchdown a good alternative, not the best UI, but it does support categories and it gets the job done.
My dream is that Pocket Informant comes out with an Android app WITH MS Exchange sync...

@26(dorpond), have you tried touchdown? It has a full-featured task syncing and there's a beta version out there that syncs notes (though only with Exchange 2010 and editing is not supported yet)

I think it's only a matter of time before tasks and notes will be fully supported by Android, but Notes will take longer since it's only available on the just recently released Exchange 2010.

Hi All,
I'm not an adroid developer fan boy, and i sorely miss having over the air notes sync, however as i understand it, it (and tasks) were not implemented in activesync/exchange - even from the pocket pc days. blackberry did a nice job implementing while running their blackberry server on the exchange box. i believe exchange 2010 is supposed to support ota notes, so i presume that will eventually be incorporated. i've been waiting for froyo to hit my incredible, and though i doubt it will offer any sync improvement, my fingers are crossed.
my exhange sync seems to be a HTC add-on, and if Froyo doesn't do what I want i may break down and get touchdown (i'm also lacking html emails from my exchange 2003 server)...i do believe those folks are working on an ota notes sync -- from what i've heard, it is a real bear, so while i sorely miss it, i think we need to recognize what is and is not appropriate for the android folks to do - and potentially send the bashing towards microsoft for not having it in the activesync protocols, and not blame the android developers.

ne...@googlemail.com <ne...@googlemail.com> #34
Tasks and even Notes should work even with Exchange 2003. I'm running an Exchange 2003-account on my N1. In another issue I learned how to do a debug the exchange-sync-process. In the generated logfile I can see that the syncprogram sees my note- and task-folders. So it is _definetly_ possible to sync those items over EAS.
Here are the logfiles parts:

I echo the above sentiments. I am stuck with my BB until Android is able to sync not only my calendar and contacts from my personal PC Outlook, but notes and tasks as well. Notes are vital for my day-to-day. Is it really that hard or are other forces at play here?

Now, back in the Pocket PC days, you could sync notes, but that's only when you synced with a USB cable to the PC via Activesync.

I respectully suggest we use this thread as a sort of petition to ask google to provide over the air sync for android/exchange to include tasks and notes. I think everyone knows it can be done, and I think everyone knows google has the resources to get it done, one way or another. I also suspect millions of users would love to jump to android, but for this gap in exchange sync-ing. So, let's get people to chime in until it's announced by google:
Google, please make it so android sync's OTA with exchange including tasks and notes!

Please Google, get with it. Don't you want to be able to crush IOS4?? Well you cant with Android 2.2. The lack of full support for Exchange is a major issue. Apple has it. Plus Apple is a more secure connection. Now I really dislike Apple so I hate giving them props. This lack of FULL exchange support will prevent business users from switching to Android phones. Microsoft is about to releas WP7 and it will have all the support for Exchange plus a revamped and very user friendly UI. Again, what is the hold up Google?? Get some developers on this issue.

It's also not just about tasks and notes. The actual e-mail application is quite terrible. It works - just, but that's about it. It crashes, can be terribly slow, doesn't allow proper (full detail) querying of the GAL, can't "select all" in the folders (so can't delete the items in the deleted items folder), takes FOREVER to sync. a folder that isn't the inbox, doesn't support App2SD, etc., etc. It's obvious to anyone using the e-mail app. that it's a very basic utility. It also hogs HUGE amounts of memory (somehow - what IS it doing??). Let's get it to use the SD card as storage and put itself on the SD card. The Blackberry may be a basic and relatively inflexible device, but it does get one thing right! Exchange. Replicate the fundamentals for the Android platform and it's a winner.

What about making some kind of web service exchange tie in? If blackberry can do that, why couldn't google? It may not be prefect but we would accept installing additional software with exchange to get notes sync.
There is actually a feature of ActiveSync that supports this:
"Service provider support for other types of data is written by OEM or third-party developers. Although this requires some programming effort, it also assures that any application or data type can be supported. This and the following sections explain the steps required to create custom service providers."
You can create an ActiveSync service provider COMponent to support other data types for syncing.

Wow, I was about to purchase my first Android device (Tmo G2) next week until I saw this thread when researching how Exchange works on android. This is a huge deal breaker for me.

I learned about the app thanks to:http://www.syncdroid.net/
I hope this helps others who are suffering without their Notes and Tasks - this has made my Android significantly more productive!

I'm absolutely stunned that tasks are not available on my brand new desire hd. I've been using blackberries with exchange for years and I thought that tasks are so fundamentally important that I never checked if Android supported them. I would never have bought an Android device if I had known this. Everything I need to do is an Outlook task.
de...@gmail.com <de...@gmail.com> #97
Unreal, no task synch? I just switched to the HTC Aria from the Samsung BlackJack series of phones because I'm LOVING Android. Now I find out that Task synch isn't supported. I can't believe it's a technology blocker, ActiveSync does it by default. I have to wonder if this isn't a move by Google to block MS technologies until they can get their own task tracking software working well enough to compete? That's the only logical conclusion I can find... Come on guys, Android will win the mobile phone OS competition hands down, but not if you don't support the industry standard enterprise mail/task/calendaring system.

Come on Google, seriously... This issue is OVER a YEAR OLD, and it is still "unassigned"? As a network administrator I know that Exchange Activesync allows for tasks to sync, so why can't my DroidX get them? I really don't want to have to go back to Blackberry but my work day can be extremely task driven; I'm sure I am not alone on this.

android not supporting tasks is not good.

I just went to an exchange service and was really surprised to see tasks would not sync. All of this time I thought I was doing something wrong until I read this thread. Android is such a great platform and syncing tasks is such a basic function. There must be something more to the story.
li...@gmail.com <li...@gmail.com> #116
Syncing tasks is a must for any business user.
It looks that Google is following the Apple way, omitting Task & Notes sync to create a market around this issue. I will not agree to install 3rd party applications, most of my work is in forint of my desktop and this should (and can) be built in.
I don't mind if the price of the phone will "soar" in 20$ as long as I don't need to install more and more "helpers" on my PC and mobile.
Notes is not supported in EAS, However sync against Outlook or iMail should do the job.
My next phone is going to be Nokia only because of this issue.

Company of 25 moving to exchange server and currently have blackberry. looking to buy a lot of android phones to access our exchange server. worried that no task support could push us away from google. not sure if i can rely on touchdown to make this happen...also an added cost which is a negative. common google get it done...simple...add tasks to next update...everyone needs a tasks list anyways

Notes & Task synchronization is a big deal. Between this issue, contact linking, copy and paste and bluetooth bugs that auto call the last number when it initiates - this phone OS is too immature. I have had it for 3 weeks and consider it a huge waste of time trying to figure out how to make it work. After reading all the "bug complaints" with no response from Google, I am returning the phone and going back to my blackberry.
sy...@gmail.com <sy...@gmail.com> #147
Starred. My company has implemented an Exchange server. Most employees have smart phones. Company bought phones are Blackberries. I don't see us offering Androids until Exchange sync is fully featured. Definitely lost business here.

Google wants everyone on GMAIL, so there is no priority for them on this. Doubt it will happen natively. Decisions like this are the reason that even though I am a huge android fan (with a GSII and a Transformer Prime), I will probably end up going back to Windows Phone once they have a few versions under their belt.,With a Windows 8 Tablet to boot. Google just doesn't seem interested in supporting Exchange or any other enterprise features for that matter.

This is disappointing. 3+ years of comments from users and still nothing from google? I'm new to Android (Samsung Galaxy Note) and other than the lack of support for Exchange Task Sync I love it.
I am the first user out of 200+ employees that currently uses the Note, the rest are using Blackberries on a cororate BES. Our IT department asked me to do a one off trial and give my feedback as to the viability of switching everyone to Android. If I were to recommend it only to have no exchange task sync my Co-workers would lynch me.
I absolutely love the Note and it's "business-centric" ability and appeal but with this option we will remain on blackberries.
I'm hoping that the pending ICS update for the Note addresses this glaring hole that as far as I can tell is it's only weakness.

Description
have noticed a feature that is not supported. I use the Notes & Tasks in
Outlook a lot and now they are are not accessible to me on the Droid. If the
Palm can do it, why can't the Droid? I have checked and Exchange Server
ActiveSync does support notes and tasks.
Your attention to this will be appreciated.
