Calender Widget - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Anybody know of a good calendar widget that's something like the stock Calender widget? I'm looking for one that just doesn't show the calender but one that shows upcoming events. Pure calender widget sucks.

I like smooth calendar, which I believe was free. Doesn't take up too much space on the screen and is easily customizable.

Are there any calenders that will import Google calender's event colors? So annoying seeing all my events the same color, gets confusing.

Calengoo. That is one reason that I went with it, as I too got annoyed at trying to make sure the colors stayed consistent.

I like Agenda Widget.

I use CalWidget, does what I need it to do. Just displays whats coming up, you can also use custom colors and such.

Fancy Widget and Beautiful Widgets don't work.

They only display canvas background on my phone and don't show the whole skin. It looks exactly like when your phone is mounted and only gray/black cavas background is showing. I tried a factory reset and didn't work. Don't know what is going on.
Every skin I have tried using Beautiful Widgets has worked.
beautiful widgets works fine for me,along with the animation pack
Good here. You mean the clock is missing too?
Or just the weather?
Because if its the weather you just have to set your location.

Anyone knows the name of the folders for fancy widget or beautiful widgets where they located in SD card? I can't find neither of them. I only see texts and borders. Other widgets work just fine. I even have Optimus 2X Weather widget.
Beautiful Widgets + Animation pack working perfectly here, all skins fine
I know they work fine for others. But do you guys know where those apps installed to? Like what folders?
Kind of like this. lol
@ nraudigy2, how did you get that blue text notification? Are you using a third part text app?

My beautiful widgets works fine except backgrounds don't work on any skin for me.

Only default Weather skin works. Rest of them weather skins and clock skins don't work. I can run other apps and widgets just fine, except these two widgets. Maybe Amazon messed up the Fancy Widget Pro, because I got it from there for free. I've done factory reset so many times also.

[Q] Widget to tweet

I'm looking for a widget to allow me to post to twitter. All of the twitter apps that I've tried have widgets that show timelines. I just basically want a box to type in and post. Any suggestions?
Plume..

I've actually been using Plume, but somehow I missed the 2x1 widget, which has the status post button. Thanks!

Android Pro Widget is the best social network widget on the market. It's better then Plume. You can use apw for twitter, facebook and more. It also have different themes that you will like. Try it out.

Bah you name stealer! Jk
Haha cant help but derail since ive never seen you around. But im about to try the app you suggested. Even though 12 posts in 3.5+ years isnt impressive. Maybe you speak from experience.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
I tried out all of the suggestions and decided to stick with Plume. Even though it doesn't show you the tweet entry box until you click on the widget's icon, it works out to be the same number of clicks (or I guess I should say "taps") as when you want to type in the text area of widgets that do show you the entry box. So, I like Plume's the best and, of the ones that I tried, I liked Android Pro Widget the least.
Lol. That been my nickname sense I was lil. I thought I was the only Kwes. I like your work so I'm not mad we have the same name.

Twicca is barebones, and customizable. Runs really smooth. Allows you to only install the add-ons you actually use.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
I use http://goo.gl/d4gHQ
i've tried a few, but to me, tweetcaster is by far the best and easiest to use. Tons of features.
Tweetdark is pretty nice. Simple nice UI and works well.
I use the official app. It's cleaner than everything else. Plume is pretty good also, but I had an issue where the text box wasn't visible when my keyboard and predictive words popped up. The official app appropriately shifts everything up, so nothing disappears.
I use Plume but I like inline previews pics and Twitlonger
tweetdeck is better for me, it just keep it simple and has twitlonger and more
Can't figure out for the life of me how to view replies to a tweet in Twicca, does it not have this function? You can see what I mean by going to Twitter.com on a desktop PC and clicking any tweet, a nested area opens up showing replies.
Tweetcaster is my favorite because I can customize it.

I've used all the above and keep reverting back to calengoo our business calendar. Calengoo is loaded with options whereas business calendar is more basic. Both are great choices

I know y i couldn't get that calender widget. I was running Nova Launcher, which doesn't have that widget. Its only in the Touchwiz launcher. So, i cant use it while running Nova. Unless someone know how to make it work. So now i have a choice. Keep nova or switch to touchwiz.

Good calendar app instead of Google Calendar?

I am so used to the calendar app from my Samsung SII (E4GT) that I never really used google calendar on my phone and on my N5 it just stinks. On my tablet google calendar is fine and so are the widgets but on the phone not so much. Worst thing is not having a nice month view that lists items instead of just showing colors.
So what is a good alternative? I only use google calendar so I am not syncing with other email services and I have a shared google calendar with the wife so need to keep that in one place.
Thanks
I use Neat Calendar widget with the stock calendar, works well for me.

On a side note, isn't any.cal supposed to be out? I have any.do and have seen them advertise any.cal for a while now but never saw it actually be released on Android.
Thanks again.

Any.cal is in beta right now. I like it a lot but always end up going back to stock. I didn't like it until I found the text mod in this same forum.

Hmm, text mod? Do you mean there is a mod for the stock google calendar app that enables text on month view?
Interesting if true...
Edit: Found the thread, thanks! I had no idea this mod was done.

Thanks, after you mentioned text calendar mod I did a search and found the thread in this form, so will be checking that out. I am unlocked and rooted but still on stock recovery though, so need to install the alternate way if I do.

Where did you get Any.cal. The play store links seems down, i hadn't luck with their community either.
I signed up for their beta a while ago on the any.do website. You can try there and see if they still have it going.

At the very bottom is a let me know when it arrives. That is what I did and I got the invite later. Much later though.
Hi, friends!
I am using amazing Pimlical Advanced Calendar/PIM (I can not post the link to this app due to the rules of XDA forum) . I have use for years DateBk5 from same developer on my Palm.
Also I use Next Launcher 3D with its calendar widget.
My question is: how can I force calendar widget open Pimlical Advanced Calendar/PIM instead pf stock calendar?
The"Clear defaults" in stock calendar is greyed and I can set Pimlical Advanced Calendar/PIM as my default calendar application.
Any hint, please.
