It was really difficult to find the bug, but I've found it...

In order to test and debug just this piece of code I've created another app only with that part of the code that creates the event and it works surprisingly!

So, the same code running on different apps has different effects(one creates the events and the repetitions correctly and the previous/main not). I've already the main/previous app working correctly creating the events with repetition. But then suddenly it started not creating the events!! It appeared also the message "you have  many calendar deletions" once. 

Could my app with package x have been prohibited by the calendar of creating new events?

This is the piece of code that I'm using:

        Calendar beginTime = Calendar.getInstance();

        #increment one day to the actual time (just for precaution)

        beginTime.add(Calendar.HOUR, 1);

        beginTime.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR, 1);

        startMillis = beginTime.getTimeInMillis();

        ContentResolver cr = getContentResolver();

        ContentValues values = new ContentValues();

        values.put(Events.DTSTART, startMillis);

        values.put(Events.TITLE, "eventitle bla bla bla");

        values.put(Events.DESCRIPTION, "description bla bla bla");

        values.put(Events.CALENDAR_ID, calID);

        values.put(Events.RRULE, "FREQ=DAILY;WKST=MO");

        values.put(Events.DURATION, "P3600S");

        values.put(Events.EVENT_TIMEZONE, "Europe/Lisbon");

        Uri uri = cr.insert(Events.CONTENT_URI, values);

Any idea why this is not working?

I've been trying to create an event in the calendar that repeats every day. I'm not using the intent mechanism, I'm creating the event inserting the event directly in the contentprovider.

I'm specifying everything that is necessary: 

- rrule => FREQ=DAILY

- event_timezone => DefaultTimezone

- calendar_id

- dtstart

- duration.

However the event's instances are not created. I've already checked the sql event record that is inserted in the db(pulled the sqlite db file from a device with root) and seems that is everything ok(I've compared the record that I'm inserting with others inserted by the google calendar app and they are similar).

But if I create an event with daily recurrence using the google calendar, it creates the instances correctly, however if I create an event inside my app with daily recurrence the instances are not being created. What's can be the possible cause of this problem?
