Is anyone having trouble with the Google Calendar (from the Play Store, updated on 11/20) since upgrading to 4.4? Whenever I install the Google Calendar from the Play Store it stops the default Moto X calendar from working and neither the Google Calendar or the Stock Calendar work when it is installed.

the "stock" moto X calendar is the "old" Android calendar. why they don't merge when you install the google calendar is beyond me. i had both operational (at the same time) in 4.2.2 and ended up disabling the android calendar. they functionally identical, but only one is updated in the market.
I been wondering about this also. Hopefully this has been fixed in 4.4. It's amazing how Motorola missed this.

With 4.2.2 I was able to successfully "disable" the AOSP calendar under the App settings (unrooted, stock) and the Play Store Calendar would still function fine. After the Kit Kat update, when I disable AOSP calendar, it breaks the Play Store version. This is really annoying because if I leave them both installed, besides the clumsy look of having 2 calendars in the app drawer, I get 2 separate notifications. I suppose I could try disabling notifications on the AOSP version... but anyone have other suggestions or similar experience?
This is odd, on my Verizon moto x DE I just have one calendar app and always have, both on 4.2.2 and the new 4.4. This must only be a problem for other carriers?

Are you sure you've disabled android calendar and NOT calendar storage? I had the android calendar disabled prior to 4.4 and it remained disabled after the update and my Google calendar works fine.

I have a vzw retail version. If you check the market for Google Calendar, you will find that it is not installed. The Moto X comes with the Android calendar and not the Google calendar which is what is odd to me.

I definitely only disabled the android calendar. I have no idea what's up with it. I also wish they had merged (i.e. deleted) the old calendar when they sent the OTA.

I disabled the Android calendar and installed the Google Calendar app on my stock/unrooted Moto X (VZW). Google Calendar doesn't work and now I can't even find the stock calendar in apps to enable it.
Yep, having the same problem... seems like I can only use the stock calendar app. Pretty annoying.

You can re-enable in under Settings->Apps->Disabled tab (far right)
Yes this is very strange, why would they leave the lesser of 2 still hanging around....especially in Kitkat.
Also, make sure under settings, Google, that calender sync is still check marked.
I've had this problem on multiple builds and it drove me crazy. To fix it go to Settings > Apps > All and select Calendar Storage, then clear data. Either calendar should work without issue after doing this.
Here is how I got it to work. Disable Calender in settings>apps>all. Next go to Calender Storage in settings>apps>all. Force stop Calender Storage and clear data. After that install the Google Calender from the play store if you haven't already. Finally, reboot and it should sync with your Google accounts.

So basically exactly what I said in the post above with some extra steps thrown in for bad measure?

Pretty much, except when I just cleared data it still didn't work properly. That's why I had to go through a few extra steps.

When I did it I already had Google Calendar installed from the Play Store and I hadn't disabled the stock Calendar. I've also done it with the stock Calendar removed and only the Google Calendar from the Play Store installed and it worked.
I don't think that disabling the stock Calendar before clearing Calendar Storage data or rebooting afterwards is necessary - at least it wasn't for me, but I never tried it with only the stock calendar installed (I hate the stock calendar!). You might need to go to your account sync settings and uncheck + recheck the Calendar sync to force a sync, but this should happen on its own regardless.

Had to look for an answer to this, since my S3 with the new KitKat wouldn't work. This did the trick, thanks.

I am using the stock calendar, it is still not syncing with google despite being checked to sync. Google calendar is not listed as being installed on the phone stock, so how would updating gapps help?

If you don't have Google calendar of course it won't sync. How do you not have google calendar on a stock phone?
Go to your calendar. Open settings. Click calendars and make sure the one with your Gmail is checked. Should sync.

Don't know what is wrong. Have stock calendar on my S3. Account IS checked under settings. Has never synced with Google calendar to the point where I can go onto computer and open the calendar there and access my appointments. I wasn't sure if this calendar was a Samsung app or Google.
Ok so I uninstalled Google calendar app, (it was just installed from Play-store) and I got a com.google.calendar issue I didn't read it in time.
Now my all of my events are not syncing with my calendar on my phone. I tried re-installing latest google apps, no avail. I reinstalled google calendar from playstore no cigar. If I post a new event on google calander it will show up but none of the previous events I posted. I'm talking 100 or so events, appointments, tasks etc.
It is syncing fine on my tablet so not a google issue, account is set to sync calender, google calendar is selected to show in the app.
I'm lost any help would be appreciated.
Edit: Seems as though when I edit an event it then shows up on my phone. Weird.
did you try clearing your app data/cache?
Go into settings>apps>all and find Google Services Framework. Clear data and reboot. Your calendar should clear itself up in a few minutes.

This worked thanks.
I have the 11/22 driver (update 5) on the Infuse and I cannot get past the authentication screen for calendar.
After I plug in my uid/pw it says "Couldn't sign in". This must be a default message for something because when I test with an invalid credential it simply says bad uid/pw.
Does anyone have a working calendar on 4.4 ?
I had a similar problem. I downloaded the google calendar from the play store though and it seems to be working fine.
fixed by replacement

It seems that the calendar application included in gapps (green grid icon) does not work . I disabled it and downloaded the calendar application from Google:good: play (blue page folding icon) which worked without setup.
Google must have switched the application and we are still flashing with a wrong gapps.:good:
that green icon calendar is the stock android aosp calendar app. its not part of gapps, though you used to be able sync your google account with it. i dont know if you still can because they killed off google sync a while back. its still needed for other things like exchange accounts. google released a dedicated google calendar app like a year or so ago so you should use that anyways.
Thanks

If the AOSP calendar is uninstalled and the blue Google calendar installed will calendar on lock screen function properly? I'm not on 4.4 yet but just curious. Thanks!
Anyone else having issues where the Google Calendar isn't syncing? In my account settings, the option to sync Google Calendar isn't even listed. I've got App Data, Hangouts, People Details, etc, but nothing about the Calendar. I use the Google Calendar app exclusively, never tried the LG one and hated the Samsung one on my previous phone. I am currently rooted.
Already tried:
Removing Google Calendar and reinstalling.
Removing Google account and re-adding.
Rebooted
Shut down and powered back on
Works here. Did you select it as one of the calendars to sync?

It's not an option for me to select. There is no calendar in the Account Settings and in the Calendar app itself, it is not listed. When I click add calendar, it just sits there with a spinning wheel and does nothing.
Works fine for me.
When you go under your Google Account settings uncheck the Google Calendar sync then recheck it...... that helps sometime.
As was already mentioned twice, that option does not exist for me on my phone. There is no option under Google Account settings to even select the calendar as something to sync. It's just not there at all.
I believe I had a similar problem a few years ago and the issue was the calendar was corrupted in the account. I think the solution was to log into gmail via a browser and copy or make a new calendar. Google search the issue and you should be able to get more exact instructions.

I think you can get it back by adding a second "dummy" account and letting it sync. It's recommended to be on data when doing so.

Well, I ended up doing the full factory unroot process (basic rebuild from factory ROM file). Irritating as it is, my Google calendar now syncs. I'm not sure what was causing it not to, but there it is.
I was having problems with the stock calendar app not picking up my reminders from my Google Calendar. Instead, I just installed the regular Google Calendar app however for some reason I am not getting any notifications for reminders. The reminders are definitely in the calendar, and I am notified on my other devices, however it does not seem to work on my Honor 8. Is there a setting I need to tweak to allow this?
Thanks.
Hi,
Do you have any issues with any other apps not showing notifications?
Cheers

Everyting else seems to work fine.
Is there any solution? I have exactly the same problem.
Make sure you allow calendar app full access in settings. I don't use a Google calendar app on this device. But reminders in my Google account and pushed through as well as my regular Calendar app.
This was on Android 6 and now Android 7..
Side note I also have Google Calendar sync up in Google account settings.. Check your setting to see if there similar to my ones..
