What is up with Jellybean and tasks? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Either I'm going mad or Jellybean is really lacking in some basic features....
Go to the calendar app (now called S Planner) and enter an event, then enter a Task
Now add the Calendar widget...
Event entries show up but Tasks are nowhere to be seen....

There's a widget called S Planner (Mini Today), I think that's what your looking for.

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.

Looking for lock screen app to show my next calendar appointment

FYI - Device is not rooted
Widget locker will let you put a calendar widget on your lock screen.

I think I saw this option in the JB leak. Anyone confirm?

I use widget locked and place the minimalistic text widget for calendar
type R-blood
What are some other alternative locks screens I feel like Widget locker is just getting so lazy, They haven't updated the icons in forever!

I need one that only comes up when needed, not like the WL that stays there even if you don't have any calendar appointments.

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.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
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

pure calendar widget

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 the wizz widgets for the calendar which is really great and its very customizable.

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.

---- Missing Calendar Widgets in ADW Launcher ----

For some reason, the Calendar widgets that come with the application are missing in ADW Launcher. The only one that shows up is the simple Calendar widget that lists the upcoming events. They other 2 missing ones are the tan color full calendar and mini calendar.
Is it that they are only meant for Touchwiz? What can I do to get them in ADW?
Thanks in Advance!

You can try Business Calendar by Appgenix. It has several widget options, although not as nice looking as the TW calendar widget.

you have to try with stock calendar from google..
it's simple and graphically consistent with Android
I use Jorte for my calendar widget and have the Samsung calender shortcut on the desktop next to it.

Tw calendar is based on tw launcher we can't add it on any other launcher. It sucks but thats life. Ps for the future please for the sake of god!!!!! When we get cm10 we can't get any tw features. . Just fyi.. not say your doing this just hate seeing threads and post for the same thing..
But yeah even the weather and clock widget cant be added.. you can find other things to make it look cool. Its just built into the framework

[Q] S Planner?

Does the i317 have S Planner? I've done some searching and it looks like most people have this app, but I don't. I only have Calendar (with the green icon, which is the Samsung version, whereas the Google version is blue). I'm running stock 4.1.2 so I don't know why I have something different. I do have an Exchange Account added, but I can't imagine that would change the name of the app. Any ideas folks?
The whole reason I even started looking into this is I wanted a Tasks widget, which is missing from the version of Calendar I have. I only have widgets for Mini Today and Month.
Thanks guys!

Not sure what you are talking about. I have S planner and it has a green icon. I am running CleanRom 4.0.5 which is Android 4.1.2. S planner is the samsung calendar app with the green icon.
I don't have S Planner. I have Calendar instead. Do you have a Tasks widget? If so I'll switch to Cleanrom asap.

You you mean the s planner widget? That, I believe, is only available with Touchwiz launcher. I just downloaded another ROM to test out on my extra Note and it did have the S planner widget, which is basically the s planner calendar on the screen and they had an s planner widget that listed the day's activities.
There is a modification somewhere here to add the s planner widget but again, I believe you have to use the stock launcher.
