Hello So what I wanted to discuss was the possibility for a MobileOrg to create new files from its phone and keep them synched.
Currently the list of synched files is a file called "index.org" stored in the synch folder and Emacs and MobileOrg use ite for pulling changes. However everytime Emacs pushes a changes, it overwrites this file. Because for pushing, Emacs use a second list of files, the variable 'org-agenda-files and it will recreate a new index.org based on org-agenda-files content. To conclude, if MobileOrg had added a file to synch in index.org, it will be removed from the list after next Emacs push. So my suggestion is for Emacs to stop using org-agenda-files to generate the list of synched file but use the currently existing index.org. In case index.org does not exist (for eg. at repo initialization), then org-agenda-files can be used to create it. To be honest, after a lot of reflexion, I think more and more about using a external synch mechanism (such as git) instead of using org-mobile.el. A positive point would be to allow non-Emacs people to use MobileOrg with synchronization. So I may not even use my own suggestion but I still think it is worth to mention this "incoherence".
