Try ACalender+

If its because you like the S Planner widgets, Jorte is another excellent alternative. I've only just moved to CM10 because I found this.

ACalender seems nice, I'll try it.
Thanks !

Using paranoid Rom, with the Google calendar set to 213dpi, you get a superb view of all your accounts, month and weekly time planner, a great widget and you can black it all out with inverted gapps, it's quick and simple for me works better than all the others I've tried.

Tell me if I'm wrong, but the google calendar doesn't display the title of events. And I want this feature.
I've just tried ACalendar (free version), and it is really good. The views are perfect !

Jorte also not bad

Thats why I said set to 213, in month view you get text titles and week you get a small month box etc...if you set dpi larger then you loose this

I can recommend Pocket Informant. It comes with lots of.features and different views. And it's very convenient to use.

Google just release Original Google Calender. Try it.

[REQ] Contact Widget?

Looking for a contacts widget similar to People in Sense UI. Of course, understand we won't get scrollable widget due to lack of Rosie, but just a static 3x3 or greater widget would be awesome.
Found "Artis Contacts Widget" in the market which looks to be a good start but it's not customizable, doesn't support Facebook contact pics and seems to be low res.
Any thoughts, or devs up to the challenge?

Make Google Calendar the Default

Anybody know how to do this, it is extremely annoying to have to remember to select google calendar every time you make an entry.
http://androidforums.com/samsung-ca...-calendar-default-when-adding-new-events.html
Has anyone figured this out yet? I HATE that I can not change this to default to google's calendar instead of "my calendar"
I agree this is really annoying. I've had to go back and change multiple entries because I forgot to make that adjustment when creating an event.
However in the link above someone made the suggestion of downloading Jorte calendar because it has setting to make google the default. Did you guys give that a try?

I tried Jorte, don't really like it to be honest, feels a bit cluttered and unintuitive to me.
Still waiting for a better alternative...

I'm using Jorte right now. I like the widgets that can display my calendar on the home screen. However, the settings are cryptic at best, and the buttons in the app don't have labels and seem to do different things with each press...
However, it is worth it to have my calendar correctly sync with google without me having to re-select the calendar for each new appointment. I make a LOT of appointments on my phone, and when I realized they weren't syncing, I had to change a LOT of appointments.
Has anyone found a better solution to this bug yet?

Bump for this one. Is this something that would need changed at the OS level? I.e., no quick fix via a small app
Devs, we are calling you!!!!!!!

i'm using gemini calendar. it works great and has some other features.
This is fixed in the new 2.2 update; you can completely disable the "my calendar" app and use the stock google calendar and widget.

Contacts widget?

Looking for suggestions on a good contacts widget similar to the one in sense. Everything I've found so far won't display their facebook linked images.
Any suggestions?
From my Evo 4g on Tapatalk
If you get launcher pro plus, it has a facebook widget just like sense.
I was going for a contacts widget more than a facebook widget. Besides I'm wanting to stick to go launcher. I like it.

I use this one called scrollable contactwidget beta (spelled just like that), it's awesome and you can chafe the alpha to zero so it's clear.
To bad I'm not at my 8, I would share a screen shot

I just installed this widget and I like it, but it won't sync the persons contact image, because the contacts get their images from their facebook sync'd image.
From my Evo 4g on Tapatalk
It should work fine if you link the account back to a Gmail contact. I've tried all the other contact widgets and even with this flaw it's better then the other bloated ones. IMO.

[APP] Facebook 1.9 update

just a new update for FACEBOOK 1.9
soooo smooth. go grab ur update!
Just got 2 new shortcuts, a bit of UI changes and the speed got improved a bit.
I'm not to big for the extra icons added but luckily I'm using another app for camera that isn't labeled camera like the one included with the update. Noticed the speed boost too

ICS contact photos sync?
Now when linking FB to contacts, I now get contacts photos syncing correctly on the Galaxy S2 running stock Samsung ICS 4.03. Before the 1.9 update it wouldn't display a picture (though it did work on Gingerbread). That was the only thing bugging me since upgrading to ICS. I've heard that on the stock Galaxy S2 roms Samsung had removed the ability to sync to FB, just like on the Galaxy Nexus. So i'm not sure whether its due to FB finally using the new API's or whether it just works on Samsung ICS firmware. Anyone know?
Liking the speed boost and the new notification settings.
And the $1million dollar question for today is, naturally:
How to get rid of those extra shortcuts, cam&msgr???
To hide the new icons, use a launcher that will let you hide them. LauncherPro has this feature, as does 360 Launcher. Not sure who else.
Now where's my $1 million? Haha.
Facebook 1.9 is okay... there are some UI tweaks around the app, nothing major though. Commenting on an image seemed a little more straightforward, and the comment box looked different.
If you want an ICS-themed Facebook app, look up Fast Facebook. It was just featured on Lifehacker yesterday, but I got it a week or two ago here on XDA. Should be able to find it in this very (sub)forum. I don't care for the UI but it is faster.
Heh, AWD Launcher here.... any other tweak??
TI backup cant see them.
Oh this really annoyed the hell out of me.if I wanted to install Facebook messenger I would have I I wanted to use a camera that links directly to facw book and crashes every time I open it I'd install a separate app.
Facebook needs to split the apps out and let us install the ones we want.
I'm hopefully not the only one but I've just uninstalled the app and bookmarked their mobile site in my browser and installed someone else app.
I'll have to use something else to sync photos
mez, you can use haxsync to sync photos if you are in ICS.
BTW does this version sync your facebook contacts (with their pictures) correctly in ICS?
Thanks. Haxsync has been mentioned before. I think it'll be one of the first few apps that I buy. I don't want to put my credit card on Google checkout just like I haven't on Xbox or iTunes or my wii yet I can still buy paid content of all of them
Android needs gift cards.
I'm using tweetdeck for fb and contact photos seems to sync with my contacts from Gmail anyway. They don't update but its a start.
I can live without the fb app for now.

Google Calendar App vs S Planner

Have you tried the recently launched Google Calendar App?
http://officialandroid.blogspot.com/2012/10/bringing-google-calendar-to-play-store.html
I find it smoother an cleaner than S Planner, so I'm giving it a try. I don't know if will interfere with each other, for instance, with calendar notifications, but, just in case, I froze S Planner using TIB.
Do you like it? Will you keep it?
What is S Planner :silly:
Nice to be able to have core google calendar on a Sammy ROM, yet I really like s planner, something that's lacking on cm roms
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2
S Planner is optimized for s pen. Specially dragging and moving the item. But google calender not allow me the same. it is better alternative in non touchwiz N7000 ROM
i'm with paranoidandroid and using google calendar, best calendar app, even if you have s planner
In S-Planner I can see the labels
I tried Google Calendar. I Didn't like because the month view shows colors but not the labels of the events, like S-Planer do.

Yep, for Google Agenda in ParanoidAndroid Rom, I've set 230 DPI for Size and a layout of 600 px, It's awsome like that Forget Suck Planner
I'm using Business Calendar. I think it's brilliant. Very nice layout, especially on the Note. You can zoom the view, which is very nice. Good widgets too.
I bought the app in the end to get rid of the adds, but I think it was during a promotion so I might only have paid 10cents...

I was using S-planner on my old ICS rom, near the end of it I switched back to Google Calendar. You can use both at the same time they don't interfere with notifications or anything.
S-planner looked more pretty. If the one on JB rom works properly I'll probably switch back.
