If you have been downright annoyed with address links in the calendar not being clickable (to take you to maps), outside the US at least, then you will be pleased to know Google have pushed out a calendar update
Comes with a nice blue icon too.
but nothing changes
Seems to work in the US. I am not sure what the calendar update does. I downloaded it from Play, but all it does is link to the GApps calendar.
It changes the icon

I synced my google calendar successfully weeks ago. Now i added some public calendars (e.g. world cup) for google calendar. It shows me all the calendars i am using on the pc.
but when i sync it with my desire, it doesn't refresh correctly the list of the calendar i am using right now (e.g. i can't see the world cup calendar).
what can i do..?
is there a way to wipe the old entries on my mobile to do a new and full sync..?
thx for the help!
no idea..? ;(
If you look at the Calendar section in the "Flaws & Annoyances" thread at the top of the listings (it's a sticky), you'll see it's a known issue with some Google calendars.
I posted a workaround here.

thank u for ur reply.
i add the calendar in ur link and got a new calendar in google. it opens the google calendar in the browser (not the phone calendar).
but it is still the same, it doesnt show it in my calendar on my desire. it still doesnt sync the calendar list..
hmm...
I had the same - Clearing all caches and data relating to Calendars and calendar storage etc sorted it for me. Takes a while to come back though.

thanks, that worked
I was able to download and install the froyo update.zip earlier this evening and have since been unable to get any calendar apps to see my calendar appointments. I've tried the Android Agenda widget, the Launcher Pro Plus Calendar widget and the built in Calendar app. They all claim to be monitoring all of my calendars (google, facebook and "my" calendar.
What can I be doing wrong?
Forgot to mention, I am using the new two factor authentication for google services, in case it matters.
DISREGARD: I went to menu/settings/applications and cleared data for my calendars and it appears to have fixed things.
Does anybody know how to get the Friendstream widget to work. I installed a 4x5 Rosie mod and I love having the extra real estate. Unfortunately, doing this has caused my Pure Messenger widget to not work correctly. I used it for my facebook feeds. I have tried using the Friendstream widget but it never updates. I deleted my facebook account and reconnected to from the Friendstream config. It says at the bottom that is was updated at so and so time but there is nothing displayed.

Go to accounts and sync. You can refresh the widget but it only ever really updates on the time frame specified (i have mine set to an hour so it actually updates 12 minutes after every hour...6:12, 7:12, etc). I'm pretty sure you can set it for smaller intervals though.
It's a known issue and one the app has has well (you have to manually update in the app for the widget to update).
Hi

Do you use Gmail app from Google? You have to add your e-mail account to Motoblur. Also disable original Gmail sync or you'll get notifications twice I think.
[edit] That's if you use a ROM with Motoblur, I don't know if there's e-mail support in deblur ROMs.
Hi
I thought I had added it, my google account appears in the accounts as " other account" below the motorblur account with all the twitter, facebook etc.
Have I got it in the right place?
( you can tell this is my first smartphone )
Do you have Accounts or other apps from Motoblur like Social Networking? Stock Motorola software is different for various regions and might come with or without social features called as Motoblur. If you don't have it then Messages widget works with regular text messages only, I think.
No I don't have accounts for any of those social networks like twitter etc.
So I suppose I am stuck? And won't be able to have the e-mail displayed within the widget?
Thank you very much for your replies and help though.
I've figured it out and now get email in the messages widget. I hadn't realized there are TWO seperate accounts one for G-mail and one for E-mail. It's quite confusing for a smartphone virgin, but what a cool toy
I have two Google accounts on my phone right now. One is my primary gmail account that I use for everything, and the other is for school emails and everything related to academic work.
What I did this semester is I put my schedule in my school gmail account, instead of in my regular account like I had been. I'd like to know if there is a way to pick different accounts and display the two accounts on two separate widgets. I'd prefer to use the stock android widget as that has never given me issues although I realize I can always download a Calendar app and have this problem solved. However it would be nice to not have to download anything and keep the way my home screens look uniform. It would also be nice because the stock calendar widget has a native lock screen widget that looks and works really well.
Basically, is there a setting in the stock calendar widget to select just one gmail account per widget? Or should I just download a calendar widget from the Play Store and do things that way?
