[Q] Replace the SE calendar with the stock Android one? - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The calendar that comes with my Arc S is just horrible. The UI sucks. I'd rather use the stock Android calendar instead. Anyone know where I can get an apk that will work? I have root access...

I use CalenGoo as a aftermarket calendar, I don't think it's worth the money, but it works pretty nice.

Just search at the market.
There's a bunch of calender app on the market.

iphone type otification system for android?

hi, is there any notification software for android which provides notification in phone, sms or mail softwares like it shows 1-2 numbers on top right of the phone, sms applications icon?
That is based on your launcher. If you are using touchwiz, launcher pro, or go SMS launcher you can enable this feature. It will not work for Gmail because of something Google changed.

I think people just hate touchwiz JUST to hate touchwiz. Honestly, there is nothing wrong with the TW calendar app. I actually prefer to use the TW calender widget
i was hoping stock calender would let me "tap" at, say, 9:30 and set that as my starting time for an event so that I didnt have to tap at 9, edit the starting time to 9:30, edit the ending time to 4:30, and THEN save. Its just a couple less clicks, but its about the efficiency of the matter. Also, the default brown-ish color scheme is horrid.

I actually LIKE TouchWiz, believe it or not (more than Vanilla since owning an S3), but I don't like the calendar. The Widgets are pretty cool, I'll admit, but the app itself feels cluttered and sluggish.

A good SMS app that uses the holo design???

Does anyone know a good SMS app that uses the holo design language? I've been using SMS Pro be am getting to the point that I dislike using apps that don't use the new (can it still be called "new") holo language. In some ways it shouldn't even matter because the Nexus devices can be flexible with their menu button. But I still dislike developers that make Android look old and dated
So I'm at the point where I've gone back to stock messenger but want (for example) a dark theme.
Does anyone have any ideas of a holo themed SMS app. (Holo themes for Go SMS Pro and Handcent don't count as the menu button is still in the wrong place.)
Here's a holo-themed stock messenger:

That's the one I use. Love it!

[REQ] Samsung Calendar app

Hey gang, After loading different roms I noticed that most of them don't have calendar apps and then I'm forced to install one from the market. I love the GS3 stock calendar app and wish to have this on my rooted GS3. I'm running MIUI rom and I miss the stock GS3 widget. Is there a way to port this as an app so I can use it on any rom?
Its a touch wiz app
If you want it you need a tw ROM

I know, I was just hoping that somebody can port it. I chose MIUI because just about every rom out there is JB and I love it but I want something different on occasion. thats why I pick MIUI for a break from those JB ui's. I go back to stock once in a while because I miss those sharp looking widgets and smooth looking ui
I'm sure you would feel differently if you tried Business Calendar. It's very good. I like it mainly because of the awesome widget control, which other calendar apps are lacking.
Business calendar can also update to google calendar as well and the new version can be configured to look just like the stock calendar.

[Q] Blink feed Htc Alternative App

Hey devs and android users! I'm new at this so I apologize if I've posted a New thread for nothing or it's in the wrong category
I have a htc one v and a galaxy tab 2 7" (GT-P113) and would like to know if there is any android app that can mimic the way sense 5 homescreen and lockscreen works on the new htc one, and just to be more specific I mean like the way you can see newsfeeds without widgets.
Does anyone know if there is such a thing?
Not at the moment
try Flipboard

The closest you'll get is flipboard or currents on JB, using daydreams, while you're charging. The rest of the android world hasn't caught up. Technically, YOU'RE probably the leading knowledge right now on this subject.
Do you mean to say I have the leading knowledge on the subject?
u can try taptu or pulse news from play store
But do they have widgets?

You can try the feedly widget. I use it on my device to quickly run through headlines from my home screen. It can be resized and still looks good. If you're looking for social feeds, look online to see how to generate a RSS of your fb/twitter feed and add them to feedly.
I have used pulse and flipboard, both do pretty good job.

So... I started making such an app, after i heard my phone won't get the update to Sense 5. (HTC ONE S)
The app itself is going to be a launcher, similair to Sense 5 with Blinkfeed. But i'm not going to add news feeds and rss, Only social networks will be included.
More details coming up

so.ho launcher already does this
Sent from my One V using xda app-developers app
So.ho launcher hasn't been updated since December of 2013 so it is outdated. Also the benefit of having a launcher do what he is wanting as opposed to a widget is that it will look better. Exactly like what blinkfeed does. It is possible as HTC made sense 6 a launcher, so it is possible. And people don't ONLY want RSS feeds. I personally loved chameleon launcher but that was abandoned/sold.

I accidently froze/disabled HTC blinkfeed and now my phone will not load a Launcher. Can I flash the htc blinkfeed apk in recovery to fix this? I have a HTC Desire 816 running kitkat 4.4.2 and sense 6.0 (Stock)
Thanks
