Hi, I wrote "Calendar Manager" to create new offline calendars on my device (Samsung i9000). Since custom ROMs like AOKP or CM don't ship with the "local/phone/offline" calendar, known from Samsung devices. Its free, no demo, no ads.
For anybody who wants their appointments or tasks safe on their's device, just download the apk, install (remember to allow 3rd party apps in your device settings), and create as many calendars as you wish.
The offline/local calendars integrates into the standard calendar module of Android, so you can use them with any calendar application, like the stock calendar viewer.
You can sync the calendar for example with MyPhoneExplorer to Outlook, Thunderbird/Lightning and other programs. But it will never be copied into the cloud.
Have fun with it. (Attached)

thanks for sharing....friend....:laugh:
Nice! I will try it!
very nice, thanks alot:silly:
BTW, If some rom cooks reads this, maybe you are interested into integrating this lightweight app
Thanks a lot. You are my hero. After whole afternoon of google-searching you just offered simple solution to my problem
Yet a little suggestion - would it be possible to make the same thing for contact DB (like MyAccount app)?

I was already doing some research on the Android contacts database. I have no clue why, but it works completely different than the calendar database and on top the documentation is very - lets say compact. Almost as if someone doesn't want you to create offline data storages...
Neverthelesse - will try to implement it in my (very little) spare time.
Good work
Good work. It seems to work on emulator(Do not have a device running android 4.1 yet) Wish this would work on devices running Froyo (or Gingerbread). This would effectively mean we can use offline calendar without ever using Google sync. Wonder why Google does not launch a calendar application by default. Really appreciate the efforts buddy.
In any case, it would be nice if we could import icalendar files directly into Google Calendar(this is obviously not related to your software). Google contacts allows you to import any VCF file directly into contact but icalendar does not seem to work.

It was written to run on the custom roms like CM or AOKP which are base on Android 4.x, ICS, JB but don't ship with the local calendar. Samsung stock roms have the local "phone calendar" but CM does not, and they don't want to integrate it because they feel it doesn't make sense to not backup all your data to google. Well, I feel it makes sense to have my appointments stored locally only, so when I flashed AOKP I had to come up with a simple solution to lock Google out from my data.
(By the way I noticed, that Google syncs data from their calendar storage even if you switch syncing off. Weird isn't it?)

Really? Even if under settings you disable Sync feature it still syncs to Google Calendar is it?
I am surprised because ultimately I was going to use your app to get the Calendar DB started(if and when I get the latest Android phone running 4 or later) and sync stuff back and forth from the phone using MyPhoneExplorer. I do not want them synced anywhere. If an old Palm or for the matter the dated Windows Mobile can do it, I cannot fathom Google's reason for disallowing this feature.
Does anyone know if something similar is available fro pre ICS ROMs?
FYI, the people from MyPhoneExplorer may include offline calendar creation capabilities in their App in some future version. They intend to make it work on older systems, too.
The app is not working in my Nexus 4.
1 Installed the app
2 Disabled google calendar and calendar storage
3 Tried creating a new calendar in CM, app crashed
Is this happening because nexus doesnt have a inbuilt offline calendar? (as mentioned in the OP)

Hi, thanks for using my app and providing feedback.
I think the reason may be, that you disabled "calendar storage". This is an internal database in android, that holds all appointments from all calendars. So if it is disabled, no app can access any calendar. Google did really choose bad names for their apps and services. Here is my "Little Dictionary Of Confusing Google Identifiers and Explanations what they really mean" - that I wrote when figuring out what is NOT documented in the SDK (maybe intentionally, so that everybody just uses Google Calendar Sync...).
Google Calendar =
1) the google calendar web service
2) the google app that displays any calendar
3) the google calendar concept as a whole
Calendar Storage =
a relational database (guessing sqlite) that holds a table for all calendars and a table for all appointments. All calendars that want to use the Android calendar APIs and show the "system" calendars, must use it
Sync Provider =
a service in Android that syncs things from the phone to the cloud
Google Calendar Sync =
the sync provider service that moves appointments from Calendar Storage to Google Calendar (1) and vice versa
Local Calendar =
just a usual calendar in Calendar Storage. BUT it gets a a flag set, that it stays local. So none of all the Sync Providers has a chance to access that data.
Calendar Manager =
creates entry in calendars table in Calendar Storage with "local" bit set.

Maybe that explains why you should reenable the Calendar Storage and I should integrate a small checke to provide an error message in my app

I just stumbled across CalendarSync which can create a local calendar in Gingerbread (and maybe older versions, too). I don't see any limitations in doing this through the "free" version on the dev's web page, and don't know or care what else it does. I intend to use the local calendar with MyPhoneExplorer.

I am a newB to android and smart phones. I enabled both calendar and calendar storage, and then tried your app to create an offline calendar, it did work perfectly fine. I have selected only the local calendar that i had created with your app to be 'calendar to display' options in the default calendar. Sorry to have bothered you with my lack of experience and knowledge. And thanks for your long and patient reply
Just a short update: I did some more programming and investigation regarding Google's spontaneous synchronizations. I can confirm that you pull the plug by disabling "Google Calendar Synchronization" and "Google Contacts Synchronization" services.
Niiiiiiiiiiiiceeeee

What about an offline contact app as well? You write on your homepage "The problem doesn’t arise when it comes to contacts management, since Android ships with a built-in local contacts account that you can use. On most devices it is simply called “Phone” and co-exists with the Google-account-contacts.".
I've just checked a an AOSP ROM (Slim Bean for the Galaxy S2). There is no option to add a phone account, just one or more google accounts. So, I'm not able to use local contacts.
If you could develop a similar contact storage, this would be awesome!
Thank you.
Hi
Thank you for this! Been bugging me for a solution for like 2 days already.
Thank you!
In any way, can we backup this calendar offline (save to sd card) and then after flashing a new rom restore it from the sd card?
Good work mate!
Thanks
Hi All.
After a few days of hard work and a few times of (i don't remember how many) reflashing stock rom, i have made a complete list of safely disabled (remove or freeze its up to you) bloatware on my Droid Razr m KK lates OTA update. (Obviously this was made possible with the help of HYDROGEN PER OXIDE thanks to HYDROGEN & SERG_GANGUBAS). I have seen some other topics here on XDA about debloating M but i think those lists are incomplete. Also this is the first time i am creating a new thread on any forum so my apologies if something i did wrong. So here goes...

I have not disabled Playstore related apps and services because they are needed obviously. But you can delete them just in case. Plus, by deleting all these apps, i cannot use PIN or PASSWORD lock. Pattern is working fine and i haven't found the culprit yet. Everything else is working fine. I had almost 500mb free RAM after doing this(no apps installed through playstore yet).
Did i miss something? Please mention. Needless to say you can keep the apps that you want to use. Hopefully i helped...
**EDIT**
Don't disable VPN Dialogs if you use a VPN app. The app will not work i.e. it won't connect to the servers.
More Apps added in first post.
One more thing i would like to share with you guys from my experience, just in case someone finds it useful.
If you guys are deleting bloat for more storage space, then its fine. But if storage is not an issue and you're doing it for battery saving only, then i think keeping all the bloat and installing donate version of Greenify and Greenifying everything is far better option than deleting the apps because deleting the bloat causes the phone to lag and sometimes FC's. When i deleted all the bloatware, for sure i was having more free ram but i didn't notice a substantial gain in battery life. Now my phone is back in original state and i have greenified everything and now my battery gives me 1 hour more of SCREEN ON time. I am not sure if it will be the same for everyone. Just my 2 cents...
My personal list for Debloater. Aggressive )
Don't quite remember if it is suitable for 4.1.2, but 4.4.2 RAZR M / Luge for sure.

I thought I'd create a thread with a list of LG, Verizon, and misc apps and services that can be safely frozen without any side effects. As more people post with their own apps that were safe to freeze, I will update the OP.
A majority of these can be frozen without root by going to Settings > Application Manager > All > Select the app and click "Disable". However many have disable grayed out and require root and an app such as Titanium Backup to freeze.
Note: Please don't blindly freeze all of these applications, as some you may wish to use, while others have no use for them. This is purely a list of applications and services that can be frozen without FC and other system errors.

Keep in mind this is based on a collaboration of users, some may want to use these services while others don't need them, so please be caution when freezing applications and services. I would highly recommend freezing first and do not uninstall unless you are positive it is not needed. I already uninstalled many pre-loaded games and apps that I can't remember were included, once a few people post hopefully those titles will come back and I will add them to this list.

Idk what Verizon did this time around, but don't delete the Amazon apps (until I can find com processes). I had to re-kdz flash the Rom and re-root because I kept getting "com.Amazon.mp3" and other errors.

After I removed these, my phone failed to boot, so luckily I kept the rooted 11a image on my phone and flashed it in Download mode. I tried to boot up, but was welcomed to a black screen. Couldn't do anything about it, so I did factory reset. It booted, but I lost everything on my phone. I've been really hesitant about removing any LG* apps. I probably won't til we get recovery and I can make a backup to flash in twrp. That download mode prompt is so sketchy.
EDIT: I updated the list above. I have fully removed all Verizon apps(LGVZW ones don't count for now). They are prefixed with a "*" above and are not required to operate the phone at all. LG designed its interwoven overlay for Android without that crap in mind, so I expected it to work out, and history has shown it true for previous devices. Btw, full removal is not the same as freezing. Frozen apps can still start up. Just check a task manager, and you'll notice a few that won't die. All the ones I listed have been deleted and moved to a sdcard folder called .crap, ~850MB. Those gapps I removed aren't required to use a google account and play store. A lot can be added back through play store correctly as /data apps. The other ones prefixed with "Google" I just don't care for.
Also want to mention that the apps in /system/vendor/overlay should not be removed or frozen.

I removed all of the Amazon apps, (app store, mp3, etc.) and had no issues. I forgot to list that as I uninstalled all the Amazon crap.
@shbang I'll update my list to include yours shortly.
Well, I don't see those 3 apps said shouldn't be removed/frozen. I almost panicked before remembering I successfully rebooted several times yesterday. I'm looking in Titanium Backup to see what's frozen, BTW.

I think there is one called advance calling .
I just can't wait for a debloated rom, with all this crap removed .
I'm not super picky about getting everybit of performance, but I just don't know why verizon loves shooting themselves in the foot.
Updated the list with ~10 more apps that are safe to freeze.
It seems like freezing one or more of the 17 apps below causes delays with push retrieval of exchange email (or at least in apps like Mail Wise and Nine where you can disable server settings). I noticed notifications from test emails going from nearly immediate to absent unless I woke the phone or in some cases opened the mail apps. I am tired of testing this at least for now, (it seems to require a reboot between freeze/thaw to cause a change) so narrowing it down further will have to wait.

I have mostly everything in the OP frozen or removed, and I have Exchange setup using the Gmail app and I have no issues. Thanks for the heads up though, if you find out what it is let me know and I'll make a note.

My /system is looking pretty gutted and clean. There are at about 10 apps I still want to try and remove, depending on if they do anything or not. I'm keeping about 20 I know I could remove but prefer to use them like LGCamera(I'll never delete this), Exchange, Calendar, etc. and the few gapps that are required to use google play. I use Nova and Hacker's Keyboard and ti89 app, so I removed the default home and IME(keyboard stuff) and calculator. All of the System Update and FOTA/OTA crap is gone. Everything else is blocked by AFWall, so there's no chance this phone is getting updated or is capable of updating. I'm pretty happy with the work I've done. Phone is still fully capable and very fast and battery efficient with the modifications I've done. The efficiency of my Lollipop 5.1 is approaching Jellybean 4.2/4.3 levels. Besides apps, I've also disabled a lot of services/deamons that run in the background and make your phone feel like garbage. I think I'll eventually share this stuff in an optimization thread.

Thanks for the list, I'll update the OP shortly.
I soft-bricked my phone attempting to remove some of the more serious Verizon system apps. Flashed a recovery kdz and re-rooted to find the true cause. In a slow process of removing 3-5 apps per reboot, I didn't even make it to the Verizon apps. Turns out removing all three Setup apps (LGSetupWizard 4.50.0, Setup Wizard 2.0, Setup Wizard 4.50.0) was enough to soft-brick it again. I am probably going to wait for a recovery before messing around and soft-bricking again.
EDIT:
Here's my list that took 4 re-flashes to get to. All of these apps were fully removed by Titanium Backup.

I've been freezing them. I'm not that tight on space and it is good to have them still there in case of.... Something. When a debloated Rom gets out, then I don't mind.
From my LG-G4, Rooted running Stock 5.1
Went through and froze the ones I wanted to... But one of those (I think) made my phone lose the ability to display battery percentage... Anybody know which one?

I am not aware of one that would do that, but if you unfreeze them one by and one and find one that did it, let me know and I'll update the OP!

I ran into a "security error" upon rebooting after having removed "the usual suspect". Had to go back to stock. Any idea what i shouldn't have uninstalled?
I've been disabling a bunch of apps on my H815T, and a few of them caused issues:
• Disabling "LG System Server" caused Swiftkey and a number of other keyboards to have a huge amount of delay from input (Google Keyboard and the LG keyboard seemed fine).
• Uninstalling Hangouts with Titanium Backup seemed to cause random crashes, but disabling it is fine.
• Disabling one of the "Phone" apps caused it to say "SIM card not detected", but disabling the "Call" app seems fine (you can disable it if you use a different dialer app).
• Disabling Contacts Storage prevents contacts in other apps from working

Xt9dictionary remove then keyboard don't work
I compiled a list of stuff i removed here. So far my phone has been working fine.
I'm sure there is other things i can remove.

On earlier phones, removing Hangouts caused 3rd party SMS messaging apps not to work right, so can anyone confirm that G4 does not require it?
Ye can confirm. H815 EU GER
Removing stock keyboard, launcher and setup wizard is not recommended since after a factory reset its hardly possible to set up the phone because all data/apps are gone.
I froze pretty much everything on this list using titanium backup on a rooted h811 but some programs are still running like My Places Engine even after reboot according to OS monitor. Am I doing something wrong?

I usually just flash kdz if I need to wipe.
I' m glad to say that this debloatlist make the coffee. I removed most of LG & google apps on MM and I notice the phone running smoother and is better reactive.
However I'm actually disapointed of MM than LP. The LG stock rom (I use V20b) drain to much battery in standby than LP which is ironic cause MM has to be more efficient with the doze mode.
Doze mode seems not to work at this point.
If forthcoming LG rom are not more optimised, I'm going to really ask for his replacement by cyanogen rom. I prefer a pure android experience like my last phone, my nexus 4. But I would like to keep the LG camera app.

thx for your list (http://justynsmith.info/slim-debloat-lg-g4-improve-camera).
I have tried it yesterday on my lg g4 with MM (6.0.0 -> Genisys 3.7 Rom).
After debloating all works as it should, except that on every boot the lockscreen wallpaper was reset to the default one.
Any hints which removed apps causes this issue?
thx

I have now used the debloater application and retried it after a twrp restore.
Attached is the blocked list (based on yours) which now works without the described issue.
!! ATTENTION !! You must have an alternativ keyboard and launcher installed or uncheck LGIME and SmartHome!!!!!
