Launcher Pro Question - Calendar - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I installed cm7 which works well with ADW. I was previously used to Launcher Pro on Synergy. I loved the Launcher Pro calendar and I was wondering if there was a similar calendar I could use for ADW. I liked how I could have it take up a whole screen and sync with facebook and my google account. I just would like a similar calendar since I can't use Launcher Pro with cm7.
Any ideas?

Why can't you use Launcher Pro with CM7? Just install it and use Titanium Backup to remove ADW.

I didn't know it was compatible because I did some searching and people said cm7 and LauncherPro don't work well. So I decided to stick with ADW and try something new.
Edit: I see now that it is compatible, but I'm liking ADW a bit more. Never tried it before, but it has some really nice features. So I'm still on my quest to find a calendar that would work similar to the LauncherPro calendar. You know of one?

Best calendar alternative I have found is Business Calendar...

Pure Grid Calendar widget is also pretty nice..$2 on the Market though, not sure if you were looking for free.

I just downloaded it and I can't seem to figure out whether or not it's able to sync up with Google & Facebook. Is it?

I checked it out on the market and there is two of them? A gold and blue version. Which are you talking about, or are they the same thing? Can that app sync with Google & Facebook as well?

As of right now I found a widget called CalWidget, it does sync with Google but not Facebook. I guess this'll do for awhile until I find something better. If anybody can find a widget that does sync with both Google & Facebook, that'd be great.

I use Android Pro Widgets. It is launcher pro's widgets without launcher pro.

[Q] Use sense features with CM6?

Hi there! I just flashed CM6 RC2 and its great! What isnt so great is, that I can no longer use my sense widgets! The clock looked awesome. The contacts app and the dialer were great too!
Is there an option to flash some parts from sense with an update.zip and if so, can I still use ADW launcher which comes with CM6 or isnt this possible?
Im sure CM is Stock Froyo and not sense, which means none of the Sense stuff is installed. You would need to use a Sense rom to use these.
OP try Fancy Widget for the clock. Although you may have to search online as HTC had it removed from the market for copying lol.
Also dialerone with the light theme is close-ish to the sense dialer.
yup, CM is stock Froyo.
The thing is that I want to use CM but with sense.
It would be even better to use CM with the ADW Launcher.
Can you please point me out to a thread where I can read how to cook such a rom?

Read the post above you.
Google Fancy widget and try that.
Try DiallerOne for the dialler.
If you use Launcher Pro then there are sense style Calendar, Bookmarks, Messaging and Contacts widgets with that.
The HTC widgets depend on HTC Sense. No HTC Sense = No HTC widgets.
No.
There is no replacement for HTC friendstream, news, message or mail widget and especially not for the album and direct Facebook sharing.

ty!
Fancy widget is okayish to replace the clock/weather widget.
I also installed and already purchased Launcher pro a feew minutes ago cus it is simply a great app!
The only thing I am missing now are the sense contacts and the sense clock app.
I know that I cant use the widgets with Launcher Pro but is the following thing possible:
-flashing a sense rom
-use Launcher Pro as launcher
-use sense contacts and sense clock? I am not talking about the widgets but about the apps?
Will try this out tomorrow but maybe you can save me the hassle if it isnt even possible

no, even if u have a sense rom, if you use launcher pro or any other launcher, then it disables sense and you cant use any of the sense stuff.

Replacement for Sense/LauncherPro Calendar Widget

I just flashed MIUI and really like it. But I'm upset about my missing calendar widget. Does anyone know of an aesthetically pleasing, full page calendar/agenda widget akin to Sense's? Thanks.
Actually, maybe a better idea. Is there a way to theme launcherpro to look like miui launcher?
I use LauncherPro with MIUI but I hate the look of the LP Widgets. I use Android Agenda Widget for my calendar. There are a bunch of skins for it and you can customize it pretty much any way you want. It's free too which is always a plus.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I use Smooth Calendar agenda widget (it's 1x4) and Jorte Calendar (3x4) monthly view widget. Both are free in the market and sync with my Google calendar. This combination takes up an entire screen and gives me everything I need at a quick glance.

I use Colorize Widget myself
another one here for smooth calendar, i have it show 3 events and you can tell it to use what calendars and what apps to run off of
I appreciate all the replies, I actually downloaded each widget suggested... but none of them quite did it for me :/
I love the aesthetic of colorize, but there is no calendar and it seems like it doesn't sync with google?
I liked the functionality of jorte, but man, thats an ugly widget, even when i switched over to black. (white is hideous)
Smooth calendar is cool, except I really want a full screen widget.
Oh well, it looks like I'm switching back to LauncherPro, that calendar widget is just too awesome to lose.
Yeah either sense or lp it is i guess

[REQUEST] replace stock ICS calendar with samsung one

I'm looking for samsung calendar app (which actually is the only Samsung app I really miss) to replace the stock ICS in my rom.
I don't mind if stock calendar will go away.
I'm with XWLP9 deodexed rom
thanks in advance
I'd love that too...
There are just no calendar apps that can display whole month as a widget. There is go launcher calendar and launcher pro calendar, but i want one without the launcher.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...yLDEsIm9yZy5rb3h4LnB1cmVfZ3JpZF9jYWxlbmRhciJd
Try it out
already tried. as almost all calendars / widgets in play store.
still I'll appreciate to have my samsung calendar back on my phone
I believe it only works on touchwiz launcher. I use apex launcher and don't have the option. But on touchwiz its there.
Just wanted to bump this and see if anyone else can help the thread author and myself. Still looking around for a Samsung calendar that will work on an AOSP-based ROM.
Cheers.
i also join the request. anyone that has the Samsung stock calendar app in his rom, please upload it.
I would love the samsung calendar app.

Android Agenda Widget my go-to widget for years now, always getting better, tons of features and you can make it look almost any way you want.
As for facebook support... Never heard of any calendar that has that. And you would not want to "sync" with Google Calendar, just use the database. Anyway, if facebook is a requirement, don't think this one does it.
Pure Calendar is the best...

WOW! so I have got my New Nexus 7 32gb and it updated to 4.2.1 as soon as i powered it up and connected it to my wireless...
I am missing the calendar widget. the only calendar widget i have is for google calendar.
I really want the default calendar that shows me the whole month that i have on my phone, and from what i am reading it was originally part of the nexus 7, just wondering if it was removed or if for some reason i am missing something obvious and dont have it.
I could download any ordinary app from the store but why do that if i should have something already for free.

Google Calendar is basically just like the stock calendar.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/ Business Calendar Free is very good.
So good that I bought it.
On one side screen I set up a 5x5 Month Calendar widget (sized to cover whole window) and on the home screen I use another widget set as Agenda.
I really like that the widgets are re-sizable.
Many options.
Great app.:good:
so i went with android pro widgets for the full screen calendar and to get it synced with facebook i used UberSync which allows me to add facebook friends birthdays to the calendar. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ro.weednet.contactssync
Three words: Executive Assistant Plus ^_^ Epically awesome! (Ok, so that's 5, but I was only counting before the happy face lol)
Pure calendar widget and apw (android pro widgets)
Pure is really nice and super configurable. Plenty of themes too.

Wizz widget. Free and looking great, plus has other goodies, like RSS news, facebook, twitter etc. Free version has limited customization options but it is enough for me (set font/back color/transparency)

Thanks for the heads-up. This app is good enough to pull me from Google's own calendar.
There's a reason this app is rated so highly.
I also had to buy it.

android pro widget + lucid theme and I never looked back
I think you will like this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2338410
My vote is for Jorte
Lots of widget sizes, fully customisable colours, can display your events etc. Use it on phone and tablet

It's a complete calendar app but the widgets are nicely done.

Calender widget

Will the calender widget or any other app from the original stock Evo ROM work on the newer Jelly Bean ROM? I really like it and hope to use it. I want to know if they are compatible since it's just an older app.

You mean from stock? No, no sense based app's or widgets will work on any of the ics/jb roms, only GB sense roms.

Thats what I thought but I wasn't sure. I read that all of the sense apps are designed to run with the Rosie Scroll. I just wanted to make sure. Thank you.
The stuff on the market sucks. Does anyone know of a full page Google calender widget, or one that is compatible with it? I"m having trouble locating one.

I personally use Business Callendar. The widget is better then sense in a lot of ways. (smaller text, more on the screen, and like 15 different color palates). https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=netgenius.bizcal That's the free version. Paid version was the app of the day on amazon market a while back. So I can't comment on the ad's, because I have the paid version. Try the free version first and if you like it....
A couple other favorites of people...
Calengoo https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.calengoo.android I didn't care for the widgets (unless they have been updated), but will also synch google tasks.
Pure Calendar Widget.. EXTREAMLY customizable
- Agenda view https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.koxx.pure_calendar
- Calendar view https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.koxx.pure_grid_calendar
They also have a few other cool widgets.
Also, some of the launchers have pretty cool built in widgets. Go Launcher, Launcher pro plus. Seems like there was another couple also.

Yep, that Business Calendar is the business.... Ha... Did you buy the paid version? What features are unlocked? I just downloaded the free version yesterday, but I haven't had much time to play with it yet. I'm having phone issues. Tell me what you like about it and if I should spend the $4.99 for it.
It was the free app of the day about 9 months ago on the Amazon Appstore, so I have the full version. Best parts of the paid app (besides no ad's) is more widget themes and a dark theme for the actual app instead of the light theme. Has some other things also, like linking certain contacts to events, drag and drop for some things, and making a template for events.
Personally, I just REALLY like the widget. Best calendar widget I've found.
I would highly recommend "Agenda Widget for Android."
Highly costomizable and free. The only draw back is that it isn't like the stock evo calender widget what displays the whole month.
