9 February 2015: New Tutorial: Set Up Android Calendar and Contacts with DAVdroid Sync to Radicale Server on Linux
The Set Up Android Calendar and Contacts with DAVdroid Sync to Radicale Server on Linux tutorial describes how to set up Android Calendar and Contacts to use DAVdroid to synchronize data with a Radicale CalDAV/CardDAV server running on GNU/Linux. The steps use Free Software, do not use or share your data with external service providers, and work with the stock "non-rooted" Android image.
The final solution enables wireless network synchronization of calendar and contact data between an Android device and a GNU/Linux computer. This is similar to how Palm OS devices could synchronize calendar and contact data over a USB cable with a GNU/Linux computer running J-Pilot.
