I have an HTC Evo 4G and I was wondering if anybody can suggest an alternate program for the program that will enable me to make notes on individual days, i noticed that you can only setup appointments and what not in the stock calender. i'm trying to record information for each day, is there any good apps that will be able to do this? i've tried different types of apps like calwidget and s2 calender but those dont give me the option to add notes to specific days. I would also like to find a program that can do recurring appointments better then the stock calender, i dont believe im able to make a recurring twice a week appointment. =\ thank you very much for any suggestions!

What's your opinion on which tool for multiple google calendars? Goosync? OggSync? Others? Pros/cons?
I want to be able to categorize and sync my multiple google calendars in a way that make sense, keeps things separated, syncs live and has push calendar capabilities, and easy to use on my phone.
Thanks.
Anyone have any input?
For a free solution and a good alternative to Oggsync, take a look at the ActiveGcSync project at milow.net. it's a little slow to sync but the job is done and the author is working on a new version to speed up the sync.

I am long time BlackBerry user and have switched over to an Andriod device, but I am really missing my blackberry tasks and memos. I have searched through and tried many different apps, but cannot seem to find android apps that work like the blackberry ones which I am used to. Specifically, I need to be able to set tasks with alarms/reminders like blackberry has. I just don't know!! Can anybody help? Thanks in advance.
I use VCOrganize to sync my notes and tasks with Exchange..
Hi. thanks for the response. Where can I find VCOrganize? I tried Googling it, but found no links.
Are there any other sugggestions from the group? Thanks
The full name is VCOrganizer. It's in the market. If you don't have market access let me know and I'll track down their website.
I'm also a long time Blackberry guy and until I got my DroidX my primary phone was a BB Curve. I loved the memos app--it wasn't exactly the cutting edge of technology but I sure used it alot. I now use Evernote in much the same way.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
try Jorte

I have never used VCOrganiser, but I use Jorte which will allow you to create and manage tasks and memos with reminders and alarms. It is mainly a calendar, but has other Pim functionality built-in. I love the different widgets for putting your schedules on the home screen.
Hi friends,
today is a very sad day!
I just received a mail that anounced "New Services" on nuevasync.com.
http://blog.nuevasync.com/blog/nuevasync/entry/new_services
http://www.nuevasync.com/nuevasync-personal.html
If you don't switch to the Basic 15$/yr / Premium 30$/yr Service it will stop syncing.
We have 5 days to switch to an alternative Service (web-based or installed Application).
Well i used nuevasync for syncing 9 GoogleCalendars and my Contacts to my TouchHD and everything works great.
Now I'm on a search for an alternative solution to get this job done.
I so far found ActiveGcSync. But I have to say it crashes pretty much, so it's no fun.
Do you have any other proposals?
kind regards
fwt
I'm in the same boat, just recently started using it again and was happy with it.
Not happy they have decided to stop being free (but that happens) and even worse only gave five days notice.
Not sure what to use instead... I'd pay $15 for life, but not each year.
anybody no of any alternatives, because I want to sync my contacts and multiple calendars to my windows mobile phone
The same here, I'm syncing contacts and 4 calendars at the moment. Any alternativies?
any word on alternatives?
I'm hoping this thread holds some hope:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=793683
Until then, I am using gmobilesync, doesn't do contacts but that's fine for me.
I'm currently working on an alternative service. I dont have too much time to work on it, but I have some great ideas. If anyone wants to help me, feel free to join!

I've got lots of ideas too, unfortunately no capability to go anything technical to assist!
Send me a PM and let me know what you need done. I can help with some things, others I can't. I'll let you know what I can do to assist you though.
I tried gmobilesync but it double all my events. I think I will stay with normal sync described: http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138636&topic=14299
but I will need to copy events I need to have in phone to my main calendar :/

I've never experienced doubling up (touch wood), had you already synced up?
As my main calendar is used very little compared to our shared one, I'm not going down the copying route.

yes :/
there were also forecast and holidays copied to my main calendar while using it :/
Thank you for your help. I wrote a small exchange server which can synchronize my google calendar with my phone. It was easier than I thought. I dont know how much work it needs but I think I can publish it in 1-2 weeks. Meanwhile you can write your ideas here. If anyone could lend me a server for this, that would be awesome.

Sorry, no programming capabilities, nor a server I can share.
However, some ideas:
- Ability to pick which calendars sync
- Ability to pick sync schedule (or always connected or only manually)
- Two way syncing (can't get gmobile syncing to go from WM to google), keeping to the correct calendar.
- Ability to pick one way syncing (either way required)
- Ability to pick the default calendar (for me, this is a shared family calendar, not my main google calendar).
- Ability to pick colours for each calendar (or take the same colours as set in google).
I may come up with other ideas, but that seems to be it for now. Personally I am not interested in syncing contacts or email. Contacts I want to keep separate from those I call and those I email, email works better on imap than activesync.
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...
Hey guys,
I'm looking for a stable app that combines a calendar and todo list. I've tried many different things already but none of them really fit my purpose. Wunderlist does not offer any Calendar functionality besides the due date feature, the same goes for Astrid, fetchnotes doesn't even offer that last time I checked. Google calendar is somewhat close, but it doesn't give you the possibility to just drop down a note. Also, I'd like to have notes sorted in lists that I can share with other users. That's probably the most important feature.
These are my criteria, until now Wunderlist has come closest. If anyone knows a good alternative which offers calendar functionality (a monthly and weekly overview plus an agenda for example), please let me know
Thanks a lot in advance

I personally use Any.do and Any.cal, which integrate nicely and can be used with your Google Calendar and Google Tasks account... But as far as I know, they don't offer everything you're asking for out of the box (at least not the shareable lists, certainly not from the app itself, but I suppose you might be able to use the Google Tasks web interface for that, at least).

Sorry for the delay, kinda forgot about these threads.
Well, sharable lists are pretty much my main concern and while using Google Tasks web interface is a good idea I haven't had yet, I hate using two different pieces of software for one purpose, it's to me like using a calendar and a todo app side by side. The distinction between the two (tasks and calendar events) is just too fluent in order to separate them I feel.
If anyone else has a suggestion, please go ahead and leave a reply
Does anyone have any new ideas? Maybe something changed in the meantime which I haven't noticed yet? It's sort of frustrating to always look for a better version of an app you're basically forced to use every day >.<
