I have a particular calendar need, looking for input - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Ok so i need to setup appointments, these almost always happen 4 weeks apart. Would be nice to have an app that lets me set the repetition as 4 weeks. Google calendar on my computer does it, but i can't find a calendar on android with this option.
Here's to hoping somebody has seen this and can help me out, thanks

Try Business Calendar

I use that program a lot, it however doesn't suit this need

If you use Google Calendar it will allow you to pick the repeat intervals... it has an option to popup on your phone and/or email. Works great.

Correct me if I'm wrong but that looks like a desktop version, to use the desktop version on my phone is clunky at best, and the mobile version doesn't have that option. So what I'm looking for is an app with those options.
Thanks

Touch calender does what you want and sync to your gmail calender.

Business calendar does do this. When you create your entry at the bottom select weekly. Under that there is a box that you can select every 4 week's plus an end date if needed.

Touch is a nice cal. Thanks for that.
And thanks for showing me how to do this in business cal. Makes sense now but i would've never figured that out

Dialer Applications

Hey Everyone,
Just wondering what everyone is using as there Dialer??
The Stock one is quite sad considering that you have to click like a few times to call someone...
Is there a application out there that displays all your contacts and you just have to press once on the name to dial?? ( Not like MeContacts that only displays so many for speed dialing)
I was looking at Dialer one but can't seem to download it...seems discontinued or something...
Please give your preference and if you can, why you chose it.
Thank you all for your input.
Chad
check out superdial
There is 2 in the market place at the moment,
1 that is a paid version but says it's for chinese users but we can use it still and the 2nd one has bugs in it and isn't being continued?

me too looking for something like this , checked superdial, not so impressive though.
Check out Youlu. A number of Android sites have recommended it. I just installed it, and though it could use more options (such as disabling dial-sounds, and hiding of email-only contacts), it looks nice.
wow this is actually better than atakephone, i kinda regret paying for it now!
I always had hard time searching contacts to dial.
I used modified acontacts on my donuts. But im now using Dialer One.
It have call log, dialer. contacts at once. easy to use. and its Free
Try it

Going to try Youlu and Dialer one out right now and see which one I like better!
Another vote for Superdial. I've been using it for a few months now, can't live without it. It's definitely one of the best dialers out there.
My main concern is having quick and easy access to contacts without having to click through 17 menus to get to them. I simply start spelling the name of the contact and it appears, tap their name and it's calling. Takes a mere 2 seconds before I'm calling the person I want.

[Patch] Dialer Contacts tab fix!

I've finally fixed samsung's screw-up with the contacts tab in the dialer. Heres a patch to flash in cmw that will fix it. Thanks to Confuscius in #charge irc for testing! (as i have no charge)

I don't consider it to be a screw-up. "Contacts" is an icon that takes you to a separate app (Contacts), whereas the other two are tabs within the same app (Dialer). There should be a visual distinction on the Contacts icon (as opposed to tab). But to each his own.

its out of place and throws off the look of the tabs...samsung does that on like half the builds for the various galaxy s phones and everyone always corrects it
so id the vast majority of people prefer it uniform rather than the way it is on the charge
Dang. Just when I was getting used to their screw up and a fix comes along.
Yes - that's my big contribution to this thread.
Thanks for the fix!

Use the thanks button if you think you are wasting space by making a post to thank me! thats what its here for
How do you made???
Qurstion... I installed it but now my phone button (in apps and in my drawer) is grey and doesn't work. I can only get my phone/dial pad up if I go through contacts. How can I fix that?

Not to sound like a douche but why would you install something that's over a year old? Lol
Easiest fix is to dirty flash Tweaked.

Not douche sounding at all. It's a valid question. I was having issues installing tweaked 3.1 but finally got it. The ICS theme and contacts look so much better anyways. Thanks for the reply though.

Ban.
In other news, that dialer looks fantastic. I kinda miss the aosp gingerbread theme. Way too much blue these days.

Got my first app published in the Google Play store, what you think?

Hi guys,
Been working on learning Java and the Android SDK for a while now. Decided to put my learning project online: Saving Made Simple. Check out the screenshots to get a sense of the app:

Please visit the Play Store and download it for free. If you like it, please leaving me a rating. If it crashes (fingers crossed), please send me a bug report. I am an active dev who's hobby it is to improve my apps daily, I look forward to your reviews.
Thanks!
Its a neat idea, but none of those reviews strike me as legit. Especially the one from "Autom8r".

Haha, the one from Autom8r is me, of course, I gotta plug my own app. The rest, are legit.
But regardless, do YOU like it? What could I do better?
If your wondering why you have a single response only, its because your in the wrong thread... Nice app, nonetheless!

I like the idea and the UI a lot with one exception: the 'Edit Savings Plan' screenshot displays both icons ('Accept' and 'Cancel') on a hard-to-read, definitely 'do not click here!' red background.
Also, both icons seem to "weigh" the same, when one of them ('Accept') should be a call to action type (you can create subtle call to action buttons by increasing their contrast)

None of my color codes are showing in month view.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
The new monthly view is simply retarded beyond anything imaginable. I hope the guys get their act together asap and fix this mess.

They're not supposed to. It shows you what day you're on. It will show you what day have appointments. That's all
That doesn't make sense, nor does it follow the desktop version which shows all colors. Why would I not want a quick glance to know exactly what I have going in each day in calendar view nose

It completely follows the desktop version
Top-left. It bolds the days with appointments and not the ones that haven't. It shows no colours.
Now there is another month view that can't fit in the app that shows more than colours and text but the whole appointments. That's not an overview though, like the app
What's a view nose?
A typo I never corrected. At one point my Google calender showed the color. So I'm not sure why 5.0 is acting dumb

Not in this view. You can do a maximum of 5 days using the menu in the top right corner. This monthly overview is just that. An overview of free days vs days with appointments.
Maybe the tablet version is more comprehensive? There are also other apps you can use.

The functionality got broken in the "upgrade" -- the only things we can do are wait for Google to fix it or switch to another calendar app.
My girlfriend's calender shows color fine, but I specifically remember a point where mine didn't, but somehow I fixed it. So maybe there is a easy way to fix this.

Ask for Default Application Each Use

Is there any way whatsoever to make it ask me what default app I want to choose each time. As in, the old Just Once/Alway complete action dialog?
I've tried Complete Action Plus. Doesn't seem to have any effect.

Nope. It's lollipop forced. Maybe marshmallow it changes... Get used to it.

I'd love this too, but unfortunately I don't think there is. Sucks because I have to keep switching between Adobe and Write on PDF for my business. **** is annoying.

I just came across something last night that's a decent workaround for most things.
Better Open With (sorry, no link; new member) prompts you with it's own UI, which is still pretty intuitive. It works by having you set the default application for each intent it supports (which isn't a lot, but it's most) to itself. Then, when you open something, it will bring up it's own dialog box that's pretty similar to the old style.
It doesn't have as much customization as Complete Action Plus did, but it gets you 80% there.

I thought it was lollipop forced as well, but both my Note 4 and my Note 10.1 2014 are running 5.1.1 and give me the choice of running specific apps just once or always, could it be the Note 5?
