Calendar adding myself as guest in google calendar

Hi All. im running a A stock rom on an HTC desire UK standard non branded.
Im having a small but annoying problem when adding a new item to one of my secondary calendars on my desire.
Whenever i create an event in one of my secondary calendars it automatically adds myself as a guest in the google calendar application on my pc.
Ive been reading up on the google help forums and have found this..

It is 2012 and Google still hasn't fixed this issue.

HTC People Widget

Hi guys, im new to the HTC line and i'm having a hard time fixing this widget called "People." The pictures of my contacts is really blurry, it is sync with my facebook. So i thought, must be the facebook, but then when i try uploading pictures that i took, it still look blurry. Anyone knows how to fix this? or is this a defect or problem with my Htc sensation? Thanks guys
When the image is linked to a contact it is saved at a lower resolution. I don't think anyone has gotten around that yet, even with root.
what I did was removed Facebook sync contacts and added synch Facebook for HTC sense.
for contacts w/o Facebook links I created phone contacts, linked them to the Google contact, then selected the phone contact as the default contact, then applied a pic from gallery. this method seems to keep the higher Res pics for me even after Google syncs contacts.
its tedious but so far the only thing that's worked for me.

Same problem here...
I have the HTC Desire-S with all latest software updates (android v2.3.5 and htc sense 3.0) and I'm having the same problem you have, plus:
-The widget people and the contacts from time to time loses the images and linked contacts...
-Corping pictures for the widget and for the picture galery also loses too much quality compared with HTC Desire (non S).
In the old htc desire (non S) this was never an issue and the image quality in widget and in a call was HD.
This problem is very stupid...
Is there any solution?

I experienced the same after updating my sensation to 4.0.
It happened because the account for "facebook for htc sense" got deleted, this one used to function as a bridge between facebook and normal contacts so that whatsapp could get its syncs from there. Whatsapp can somehow not sync directly with the normal facebook app so I guess you have to do without the pictures.
But if someone knows a solution, I'd be glad to hear !

Friend stream widget with ICS on sensation

I recently got the ICS and Sense 3.6 update on my sensation. After update two things happened regarding facebook. First all my contacts which were linked to facebook started showing their previous pictures, i had to delink the contact and then relink to fb contact and only after this they started showing latest facebook profile pictures.
Secondly my friend stream widget no longer updates, even when i tap the update option it just keeps on updating and never updates.
Has anyone else faced similar issues with ICS and facebook on sensation ?
I have similar problem, after ics ota update my contact were linked with fb, wich i dislike, but i managed to get rid of it...
But problem is that now some contacts in messagging (sms) are linked with fb (but not in phonebook contacts aka people)...also searching in messaging searches through fb contacts too...very annoying...
To make things worse, i have for same person contact with one name in people app (nickname given by me) and another name (given by the person on fb) in massaging app :/ arghh
Hope it makes sense (oh the irony)...not to mention that htc sense app got aproved by itself on fb...
Help anyone? How to unlink fb contacts in messaging app only (not in the people app because i did that already)...
Thx

[Q] HELP! How to view attachments in Android Calenders???

Hi,
I've searched google for some days but I havent found anything to solve my problem!
The problem is: I have an exchange mail account at my firm and some colleagues create calender appointments with attachments in Outlook because I'm on the road 3-days a week.
I wanted to look at the attachments but no calender shows them, I tried several calender app on my Galaxy S4 for example: the Stock "S-Planner"App, google Calender App, Kalendi, and so on.
None of the above mentioned apps are able to show me the attachments.
Can you tell me if there is a workaround or if I have to change my settings in some how to view the attachments?
I would be very glad if someone could help me with this.
By the way, I hope I choose the right Forum to ask my question, if not then I'm really sorry and please move the Topic to the correct Forum (if thats even possible)
Thx to all who answers or tries to help.
Nik
