Calendars and thoughts for developers and users. - Android General

Would like to share some thoughts and examples of what I think all of these type program should do.
Rocket dialer is the only dialer that let's you make an appointment directly from a contact.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",

}
It also includes the number, email and address in the event.
Next you need a calendar that supports"hyperlinks."
Snooze calendar works, it has email, dialer, and location for navigation. But it works only as an alarm, no widgets, no agendas ect. (calendars should all have a snooze function).
Touch calendar is the only one I have found that has hyper links that let's you open your email,dialer and Navigation right from the calendar event.
This saves so many clicks I don't understand why all programs don't do this.
The only program I found that let's you change the calendar the event is in, is Pocket Informant.
Pocket informant was a very popular windows mobile pim.
Theses all seem like basic functions to me.
Please ask your developers to include these functions in all of their PIM programs.
Does it have anything to do with patents by apple such as the HTC ruling?
Keep up the good work.

Google Calendar treats me like a guest? Invites me to each new event and so on...

Hello everybody,
since the last time the Google Calendar apps treats me as an guest.
All events I add using the app are indeed sync'd correctly, but contain other settings as the ones I create using the online version on my desktop.
This is how the event looks on my desktop (I assume those symbols to stand fo "guest" and "anticipation" or something like this):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If I enter the edit-view of this event I've got additional options for invites and so on.
If I edit the event on my mobile I can set the following:
("Datenschutz" translates to "privacy" )
I think they have an impact on the settings, described above...but I'd have to set them for each new event.
What can I do? There is no menu to define the standard-velues
Thank you

no one`?
Got the same problem in G Calendar app, hope to find out some solution... this is annoying

Why isn't in google play mentioned the required Android version? At least in german.
Erforderliche Android-Version:
oder höher
Wanted to install, but my Tab is not the newest. Took me some time to figure that out.
I have the same issue in the online version of the Play Store in Denmark as well. But if you look at the name of the threads in this forum you can often see the required Android version.

Nevertheless, it uses Skype login for identification. Not a password, only login. Contacts are supposed to be synchronized from the phonebook (keep in mind, that Skype should be previously synchronized with you phonebook, too).
After these two actions you can make calls and write messages, and the program performs translation according to the language settings.
It is possible to track the conversation using on-screen verbatim report.
The hardest thing with video – somehow it doesn’t work without special device. If you need video – buy the device. If not – use the program and don’t mind. Very simple
I am looking forward to hear your opinions
