On my old palm pre if I did not respond to a calendar alert it would repeat every 5 minutes until I cleared it. On this phone if I'm busy and I forget to check my alert It does not notify me again.

Not sure about the stock calendar app, but I would highly recommend Business Calendar from the Marketplace for a couple bucks. It replaces the native calendar functionality, adds, much more customization, and syncs to google or any other calendar that the stock calendar can sync to.
...And perhaps most importantly, yes, not only do you get recurring alerts for meetings, but you can also configure how many it will send, (up to 50), how much time between each reminder, what sound to use, and even configure a delay between alarms when you 'snooze' that can be e.g., 5 minutes if you hit snooze quickly, or 20 minutes if you long-press snooze.
(See screen shot from one of the config pages below)

I use Calendar Snooze. Not only does it give you repeating alarms based off the stock calendar but as it's name says, it allows you to snooze the appointment for the times you get caught off guard but need a remind again say 5 minutes before the event. Another nice option is it will read out loud your appointment and location.
Very customizable and works seamlessly with the stock calendar.

Originally I installed something which disabled the skin that covers the incoming texts and more importantly the calender reminders.
When it was back to the basic windows pop-ups I was able to dismiss a calender appointment for 5 mins, 15 mins, 30 mins, 1 hour, 1 day, which I have to use all the time since my daily schedule is so dynamic.
Currently I have the TF3D unchecked in the today settings screen, but still get the TF3D popup overlay (?) and can only dismiss my appointments which will not remind me again at all. This is screwing me up big time, please help.
TIA,
Dan
Fix finally found with different keywords and google.
Thanks for the fix!!

So i am using the go widgets calander, was previously using jorte on my mytouch4g. i am used to being able to setup a default notification time for any appointment i put in my calanader (ex: 15 minutes.) However i noticed i didnt get any notification today for 3 things. upon further review you only get notifications if you go and set them manually for each event when added. i searched all around the phone for a spot to adjust this so i can go back to normal of just throwing a quick start time for my appointments and go. no luck. anyone else having this issue? anyone got any advice?

I've been wondering why Samsung didn't put this option in also. I miss notifications sometimes and then I realize I never set a reminder to go off. That's the one thing I miss about htc's calendar. Just have to program myself to remember to add the reminder.
Hi,
It's weird that no one still hasn't posted this.
After upgrading to stock 4.04 ROM, it is impossible to dismiss an all-day event from the Lock Screen. Snooze works fine.
You draw the 'Dismiss' button towards the lock ring, you see some animation then, as though the reminder is going to be dismissed, and then you see that the reminder just won't go from the lock screen. It keeps reappearing no matter how many times you "dismiss" it.
So far, I only experienced this with event reminders from People Calendar (birthdays and anniversaries), but I'm pretty sure it can be reproduced on all types of all-day events.
Also, two notable things:
1. After you unlock the display and dismiss the event right from within the calendar app, you see the notification bubble at the bottoms of the screen saying "The event may be deleted". WTH?
2. No matter if reminder settings for People Calendar are set to "none", when you create or even change an existing contact, then the reminder for the corresponding event will be set to "12 hours".
Anyone?
PS: On 4.03 stock ROM, everything was perfect.
PPS: I even factory reset the phone and this didn't help either.
Guys! Shame on you
Even Football confirmed that the issue does exist.
Pity there is no reaction or feedback from the community.

It's a feature, not a fault.
It's always been the case that 'all day' events in the calendar will display on the lock screen 'all' day.
Personally, I find it handy, and make use of the fact it stays there on the lock screen all day.

I'm afraid you are mistaken.
The reminder "pops up" on the lock screen 12 hours before the actual event starts.
Also, it wasn't the case on the 4.0.3. stock. Everything just worked as expected.

Anyone sent email to HTC?

i have the same problem
OK, this is a bit minor, but it is really bugging me. I use Business Calendar Pro for my calendar. I turn on notification with Business Calendar, and then turn them off in the Android calendar. That way I won't get two notifications. This has worked with the past three HTC phones.
The problem is that no matter what I do, I can't get the built in calendar to stop posting reminders. Every time a reminder goes off, I get two notifications. I've gone into the default calendar app and made sure the notifications are off, but when I get a reminder, it appears that the setting gets turned back on. This is not one of the apps that can be disabled either.
I've also gone in and deselected all calendars from the app, so that it should not in theory contain any appointments anyway.
I'm not rooted, but I'm hoping someone else has had this and found an answer.
Has anyone been able how to figure out how to do this yet?
I can't figure it out for the life of me.
The "Dinner with Layla in 30 mins" home screen notification
Someone posted how and when it appears.
It only appears if you have a calendar event WITH a reminder. It has to be in the Google Calendar app natively, if you have calendars synced to it from other services, those don't work. And the reminder has to have a notification. I think it said if you have a 30 minute reminder it will show up 30 minutes before that, so an hour before the actual appointment.

I just tested this again, small correction to my original post.
It shows up exactly on your appointment reminder.
So appointment at 10am with reminder 30 minutes before, home screen will show it at 9:30am.

This works for me as described, however how to remove it.. I have pressed it and it opens the calendar, where I am given the option to delete it, I need to keep things on the calendar for the IRS but somehow swipe or have a "done" option on my Pixel 2. Searching the internet brought me to this feed, maybe someone knows?
