Hi all,
Does anyone know a way to get the stock android calendar on the SGS.
My Hero running Cyanogen has the stock one ofcourse. In this one you see the name of each calendar item, instead of just a colored bar. This is really usefull in "week view" because you can see the working schedule for the whole week in a blink of an eye.
Regards,

I tried out CM6 today, and there are some things I absolutely LOVE about it. It's VERY responsive, more so than any other ROM I've tried. I love the launcher and the transparency to the wallpaper when you're scrolling though your apps. And I love the 3d gallery.
There are some dealbreakers for me though.... I don't like:
1- The camera app, I much prefer the HTC once.
2- The contacts list, I loved he way the stock one synced w/facebook updates and user pictures.
3- The calendar, which again synced with dates from facebook (birthdays, events, etc).
Are there apks that I can download to replace the ones in cm6 with? Or will I have to use a Sense ROM to get those?
No. It won't happen. If you want Sense, go to Sense. Otherwise, just look for alternative apps on the Market.
short answer, no
long answer;
sense widgets only work with the sense launcher. download official facebook app to sync with cyanogenmod or syncmypix. for the calendar, use ebobirthday to grab facebook birth days then sync to gmail and in gmail under calendar on the left at the bottom click "other calendars" then add "browse interesting calendars", then more tab, then subscribe to "Contacts' birthdays and events" as for the camera, someone made progress getting it working on the n1 but have not seen anyone trying to get it working on evo. right now, it is still a bit ugly and some things do not work, but they will soon enough. when cyanogen and the rest of the team are done, you will be able to do way more with their camera than you every could with the stock on. infact you already can with a large assortment of codecs and fine tuning options. hope this helped
You could try LauncherPro Plus. It won't give you a camera app, but it has an ever-increasing assortment of Sense-like widgets.
@DomSim: Thanks for the long answer =] I though from reading another thread that CM6 didn't link the contacts w/facebook, but you're telling me otherwise, so I will give that a try (I'm flashing CM6 again as I post). Honestly, the larger font on the contact list still bothers me, I wish it were smaller =[ And thanks for the info on getting the calendar sync, I don't think I EVER would have figured that out, hahaha!
@Noxious Ninja: Thanks for the suggestion. I will give it a whirl once I'm flashed back on CM6. =]
One more thing I missed: The stock Sense clock/w weather! I love that clock =[ But I actually like the clock from CM6's lock screen better. Is there a widget for that?
Beautiful Widgets

Hey guys
A while ago I was looking for a Calendar with the same layout/functionality as the iOS calendar on iPhone. Meaning while in month view when touching a date it shows the events below the calendar without going to day view.
Now I just found out that the samsung touchwiz calendar does exactly what I was looking for, they basically copied the iOS calendar.
Is there a possibility to run the touchwiz calendar on my Desire with Sense Froyo? Or does anyone know of a calendar on the market which has the same functionality?
thanks
Try Business Calendar:

thanks, but tried it before and doesn't have the function I mean, although it does have the hovering popups showing events, but it's too small/unclear on the desire..
You can check it this out... downside is that it was ported for CM7 roms and prolly for Epic 4G only. Might test it out sometime.

ah thanks that's basically what I was looking for, just for Desire
tried flashing the zips but doesn't work since it double checks if it's the right device, which should be the Epic.
tried copying/installing the apk's from the zip, but fc'ing after "successful" installation..
Sorry if im posting this in the wrong section
I have a gnex on 4.1.2 with the latest calendar update, but i cant figure out how to change the calendar event colors when i create or edit one. It lets me change the calendar i want it on, but not theindividual event color.
Does anybody know how to do this?
The only way i know is to go to the desktop version... but that sort of defeats the point of having the calendar on my phone
Thanks
I don't think it's possible to do so yet, on the mobile app.
Let's hope Google adds this feature in the future.
I am more concerned with the fact that the calendar colors are totally different for the same calendars on mobile and desktop. Haven't you noticed? I really hope they fix that first.
The colors show up the same on my desktop and mobile. My problem is i just cant change the colors from mobile... sucks!!! I hope they change it this should have been there since the begining its such a basic function
Hey guys,
since i have the N4 (4.2 and 4.2.1) my Jorte calendar app works not right.
It shows my appointments from all googlecalendars, But i can't change anything, i can't add an appointment, so i can't do noting.
It says there are no calendars, but it shows all appointments...
Does anybody of you have the same issue? Or maybe have a solution for this problem?
I love jorte, haden't find an app with such an widget (showing the appointments in a 4x1 row with showing the days from a week), so i can't change the app...
Same problem here
I'm experiencing the same problem. I can see my appointments but not add or edit. Jorte still works fine in ICS, so I assume we just need to be patient for an update to 4.2. It's a real drag.
Try agenda widget plus..
My mate is the Dev and he has the N4 so it's all good with 4.2.1 (even on the lock screen i think!)

Jort Update worked for me, so anything is fine now
Personally I've used Jorte, and it just didn't do it for me. Someone mentioned Android Pro Widgets and that worked much better...especially coming from an S3 with S Planner.
I love Jorte. Haven't found anything better but depends on how you use it I suppose. I like full monthly views + tasks all on the same page/widget.
The bug was killing me but now that it is resolved...sweetness.
Ok, I have a question about the Google calendar notifications in the status bar. I promise, I have hunted around on the internet, other forums, and XDA. I think I know the answer, but am double checking for community wisdom.
I love the Nexus. However, one thing I miss from TouchWiz and MotoBlue is when calendar notifications come up as a popup or in the status bar I could use the checkboxes to pick which ones I wanted to dismiss/snooze and which ones I wanted to delete. Is there any way to retrieve this functionality on the Nesus? I've tried several roms with no luck.
Thanks in advance for any possible help.
