[Q] Calendar app that doesn't require internet access

Is there an existing calendar app for X10 that doesn't require internet access to work? I don't like the one which came with the phone because I can't open it without logging in to my gmail account first.

You could try Jorte; it's pretty good. It has a range of themes and useful widgets. You can find it on the Market!

Thanks! It looks good!

Jorte doesn't have a working reminder when not setup to connect to google. :-(
Is there any other calendar out there that has a working reminder and doesn't require connecting to google?

[Q] Timescape alternative???

I Think the idea of timescape is quite fantastic, having everything on one look. I use it for Twitter, Facebook, Gmail, Rss feeds and i love that it actually opens each dedicated app if you click on the feeds BUT I find the appearance of the Program really annoying, you can hardly read 20letters in overview mode... so I wanted to ask whether there is a usable alternative to this. I tried out tweetdeck, but no RSS (and no Gmail) support scared me away... I also couldnt figure out whether there are themes for timescape that could help me.

[Q] Does anyone know hos to subscribe to a .ICS calendar?

Seriously I can't imagine why Google haven't implemented this function.
I have a first gen iPod Touch with a very old version of iOS and it does that very well!
I know you can subscribe to an agenda via Google Agenda but it is updated every 65465465 years (exaggerating a bit )
I know there apps for that but NOT FREE !
So does anyone know a SIMPLE way to subscribe to a calendar directly from the phone and with which I can update the calendar directly FROM THE PHONE and when I WANT, not when Google decides to update the calendar?
We are in version 4, c'mon Google !

Wow - Google has a help document exactly for that.
Hint: Do it from a browser.

Ok but that doesn't really help.
I've searched a lot before I opened this thread and I haven't found any document. (ony people complaining about this...)
I've got a calendar that is like this
h ttp://xyz.xyz/agendas/ical.php?ical=123456789
I just want to import that in Android's calendar and not in Google calendar's website.
Can you explain a little bit more please?
Thanks.

Subscribe to the calendar on calendar.google.com and it will show up on your phone (google calendar syncs with android calendar). You can't do this from your android device.

I said in my first post that I don't want to do this method because it only updates when it wants and no when I want
I don't think there is a real method to do it
Thanks anyway

Looking for best calendar app & widget

Hi all!
I am looking for best calendar app & widget for my purposes. I need app which understand html-description (like stock calendar understand) but I need also:
Ability to create private appointments
widget is showing also appointment description
So far PI is quite close but it didn't understand htlm-description. Touch calendar shows appointment description but I don't find widget for that and it also do not understand html-description. Stock calendar would be fine but it doesn't show appointments in monthly lookout. Business calendar has a great widget but it doesn't understand htlm-description.
Anybody have a good suggests!?

Try this one!

I use Simpel Calendar Widget that suit my needs.
Earlier i used Agdenda Widgets but it had some problems with ICS - but it sholuld be fixed in later versions.

Either you did not understand what I wanted or I am stupid... Because I am not able to find descriptions when monthly widget is open.
I do not want a listed appointments but instead of that I need weekly or monthly widget which is showing appointments descriptions and descriptions can be html-format.
Business Calendar has nice monthly widget but it do not understand html-code and then whole description is nice mess. Am I only one who is needing this?

you might want to checkout business calendar, got it when it was on sale

Sorry in my 1st message: "Business calendar has a great widget but it doesn't understand htlm-description."
Also I asked that from support:
"Hey Pxxx,
I think our calendar will also have some problems with HTML-description. You can try to use the free version for a short test. Normally it is only possible to show HTML-links in the description field of an event.
With best regards - Christoph Wolf from Business Calendar Support"
So I do not understand why it is soooo difficult to make calendar app with great widget and it also understand html. It is not so nice to read html-code-mess in description. Btw. stock calendar understand that but it has stupid monthly widget.
Ok, I can use both but I want only one apk for that...

[Q] good notes app

I'm looking for a good notes app (possibly like Google Keep, looks and functionatlity wise), that has more focus on privacy. The best would be an app that stores the notes in an encrypted form, and offers sync, so you can edit notes on the PC as well.
I've found "SealNote" https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.twistedplane.sealnote which looks interesting, but I don't think it offers sync capabilities. Is there a note app with encryption AND sync option?

Use Color note its perfect.. But there is no encryption only lock....

Yeah, i also use color note

It doesn't seem to be possible to edit notes on the PC though, or is there? Also, can you only sign up using your Facebook or Google account?

When u need to copy text to pc..than u can copy from colo note to any text file in phone then transfer it to pc...
Hope this helps

Not what I'm looking for. If anyone knows a notes app that supports sync and editing on the PC, like you can do on Google Keep, but with privacy, please let me know.
