Evo 4g calendar - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is their a way to make the evos calendar widget full month and put it on an ics rom. Its the best calendar I think.

Not without a lot of porting, since ICS is a completely different rom. Your best bet is to search the Market for a calendar widget. There are literally hundreds upon hundreds of them.

A good replacement is the 4x4 calendar widget in Android Pro Widgets

Looking for calander widget

Is there a calander widget theme like the one on the evo?

No idea what the evo has, but I use Pure Calendar. It's extremely customizable and skinable.

Since moving to adw ex launcher, i really miss the launcher pro calendar widget. So far, the closest I've found is a fairly new widget called Colorize (on market).
Super simple, updating frequently..
Pure and Android agenda Widget are cool too.
Touch calendar is an interesting concept. (Also on market).
Android Agenda Widget

Free Calendar app

Is there a free Calendar app that has a 4x4 widget that syncs with google calendar...
Struggling to find one that works on my nexus

Personally I'm using the default Calender widget. You can resize it to 4x4. It's not as good as Simple Calender Widget but until that is fixed for ICS it's better than nothing.

You learn something every day, I did not know you could re-size widgets.
Ive succesfully done that but it just shows today, can you change the view to a monthly calendar?
Thanks though mate, appreciated
No prob. Glad to to help.
I don't see any way to change the display settings of the Calender widget though. Seems like it's stuck like that.

Have you tried Jorte? I don't know if it's updated for ICS yet, but it's my go-to calendar. You can display the whole month in a 4x3 or 4x4, with your calendar entries actually spelled out, instead of just a dot that you have to zoom in on to see what it is. Pure Calendar Widget also does this, but is widget only, and costs $2.99 in the market.
Android pro widgets is really clean.. Also it includes a nice timeline style widget with both Facebook and twitter!
I recommend the paid version.. Some good themes.
Edit: forgot I was still in galaxy Nexus forums.. Not sure if it is ics compatible.

Sense Friendstream type Widget

I am looking for a Friendstream like widget which works on stock ICS now scrollable widgets are enabled. It needs to be a 4x4 Widget that can aggregate at least both Twitter and Facebook into one stream and has an option to update now on the widget itself.
Sonet is the best I have found so far, before I buy the adfree version I'd just like some other recommendations.
Thanks,
Inq
Launcherpro plus has a similar widget

Aye I bought Launcher Pro Plus a long while back, but I want to use the stock launcher.
The paid version of Colorize widget in the market has a widget called timeline which I believe us the same thing as the friend stream widget on sense.

You can try WIZZ - it`s designed for tablets, but also works on ICS
https://market.android.com/details?...wsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5zbm93YmVlLmNvbG9yaXplLmhkIl0.
Also Android Pro Widgets are great, and the paid version has plenty of Themes.
https://market.android.com/details?...51bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5yZHIud2lkZ2V0cy5jb3JlIl0.
Both offer way more, then only Facebook widgets and allow a unified (sense like) look with their variety of widgets. Nothing to do with Facebook, but works nice together with the other widgets.
Nice complentary stuff also is offered by Glass widgets (nice for Home screen)

Miss friend stream :(

I can't seem to find anything that compares. Colorize widget was the closest I could find, but it doesn't work spd shell 3d. Any alternatives that will work without using a common launcher?

I feel your pain, I had sense withdrawls when I first switched, then they went away but lately they have been coming again. With all the issues I've had with sprint and the lack of support from samsung, I think I'm going back to htc soon.
Anyways, enough of my rant, the closest I have found is the "android pro widgets", and it's free! It comes as a pack with a friendstream style widget, bookmark, calendar and even people widgets.
I really don't get why touchwiz comes with 7 screens and practically no widgets. HTC makes the only phone I have ever been able to create a nice layout using all screens and not have wasted space.
I miss feeds and updates widget that was on the first epic. Don't know why it's gone on the S2. If it's bcuz of social hub they could at least had added a widget for it!

Thx, but unfortunately it doesn't scroll for me and that arrow down is flakey

If you're looking for 3rd party (truly) scrollable widgets for spb shell 3d you won't find any. The reason APW uses a scroll button is the lack of scrollable widget support in your used launcher.
I use APW on my view tablet with and it is awesome. Better than sense for sure. If you really want friendstream, switch to launcherpro plus instead of touchwiz. LPP is smooth as hell and the widgets are awesome.

Full screen calender widget

Can anyone recommend a full screen or 4X6 calendar widget that shows the full month view? Another member submitted this screenshot in a different post but never responded to my pm about it.

I'm using Jorte which has several resizeable widget options for a full screen calendar.
Calender
The best calender widgets that i found and use is Wizz (scroll-able widget)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5zbm93YmVlLmNvbG9yaXplLmhkIl0.
Also think Business Calendar is good

Android Pro Widgets or APW.

Thanks for the input. Pure Calendar looks pretty good but I opted for the free Business Calender. It's exactly what I was looking for!

I use Android Pro Widgets because it also has a Facebook and Twitter widget. So you get everything I need in one download. Plus it has tons of sweet themes to really match my setup.

Take a look on Calengoo!
With this you can make a full screen widget.
I use Pure Calendar Widget...

Transparency is only good so far, wow. I dunno how you'd possibly read anything there, although your screenshot only shows the calendar, not events...
As for me, I use Agenda Widget for Android, which is very customizable and works good. I've used it for the whole time I've used Android, honestly never looked to see if there was anything out there better since. It has a list view (agenda, but you can do almost anything with it) or a grid view (calendar).
The good thing about it is that it supports a bunch of third party calendar apps too, like it can show (and create) events in Touchdown Exchange, etc.
Another vote for Agenda Widget. BTW, you must get paid version to be able to see calendar layout. Like previous poster, I'm not even thinking about trying something else. It's just that good. At least for me.

calender pad pro is worth a look , been using it for some time.
The events show up as slashes in the corners of the dates.

That specific calendar is APW widgets with the Lucid theme. Both are available in the play store, though to use themes you have to buy the pro key. I just set up that combo from the same pic you showed. It resizes well.
