Good calendar widget - Verizon HTC One (M8)

I just picked up the M8 on VZW Weds night. I had the S4, but one feature I am missing is what I think was Samsung's calendar app. It was a 4x4 or 4x5 full calendar widget. I liked it because facebook syned up all my friends Bdays to it or other various events. With HTC calendar, it doesnt say anything on the calendar, have to click on the date. Is there anything comparable to Samsungs calendar widget? Just nice to see it actually written on the calendar and not have to click on a date.

I have been using APW for a few years, love the widget, you can change between calendar view and agenda view on the flyk, click on the title bar to open into calendar app. Worth a try.

Check out Event Flow Calendar Widget which is my personal favorite - love the weather forecast included in the widget. It's free with a $.99 in app purchase to fully unlock it. Or you could try Today Calendar. The $2.99 version includes all the widgets that are sold separately.

+1 on APW. There are quite a few themes available too if you want to customize and it comes with several other widgets.

APW is the best.

Calender Widget

If you want an agenda widget that shows you daily appointments on your screen, the number of appointments shown depending on widget size, AGENDA WIDGET is the way to go. TONS of personalization features! Resize it, change font sizes, colors, what it looks like, etc,.......
EXCELLENT widget! :good::good::good:

i posted this in your other thread too:
Pure Grid calendar widget
very customizable, size, tons of themes, and when you click it, it takes you too your google calender ect.. i use it.
its only like $2 in the market, make sure its the grid one, not just the one that says calender.
I was looking for one as well, dug through a few and finally settled on Agenda Widget.
Best one
the best one - for me is - jorte - i tryed many apps - http://androinica.com/2010/04/16/jorte-is-a-promising-android-calendar-replacement-app-reviews/
+1 for Pure Grid Calendar Widget
I am using LauncherPro Plus calendar widget, otherwise Android Agenda Widget is the best for me
I tried a few this past weekend, also looking for a good free one. i ended up settling on CalWdiget. Fairly customizable & seems pretty solid so far.
just my personal preference/opinion..
I suppose I'll vote for Android Agenda Widget, even though this whole thread shouldn't even be here...
Agenda Widget
Big fan of agenda widget, free, fast, simple and customizable.
Calendar Pad.
The weekview is, for me, great. There are also numerous widgets with it, including fullscreen ones, other sized ones and (the one I use) a single button widget (showing date) which will take you to your preferred view (weekview for me).
And it's free

[Q] What is the best calendar widget?

I like the stock widget, but it's too small and I'd really like something different until 3.1 comes out.
I need a Calendar widget that:
looks great on honeycomb
can be resized (or at least be large)
strong customization
Also, I don't mind paying for it. Does anyone have a recommendation?
I use Agenda Widget Plus and I love it! It's scrollable and has lots of customization potential, although it is tedious to customize.

Thanks! Trying now
Android Agenda Widget.. its free too
Pure calendar widget.
+1 for Android Adgenda Widget. Still seems a little small at it's max size, but I love it on my Evo, and certainly a step up from the stock one.
Small? Odd.. I'm using the 2x4 widget on my TF home screen and its plenty big enough
Jorte is a really nice Calender with various widgets.

+1...calendar and tasks combined!!!!!
I like Business Calendar
I switched from Smooth Calendar to Jorte to BUsiness Calendar and now stopped at Colorize Widgets. It shows both a monthly calendar and agenda type calendar. happy with it and its free.

[Q] Like HTC Sense Widgets?

I am looking for Agenda/Calender and Bookmark widgets like the ones on HTC Sense. I have tryed Launcher Pro Plus widgets but I don't want to use LP on my TF. I have also tryed Pure Grid Calendar widget w/Sense skin but it is buggy and isn't scrollable on my TF..The Calender n Bookmark widget on the TF are small and pathetic.
If anyone can recommend a good Agenda/Calender and Bookmark widget that is scrollable and works as smooth as the Sense or LP ones please let me know! Thanks
I'm quite a fan of touch calendar - the paid version has the widgets that you can set to display x number of upcoming/past weeks in a given widget size. It's not scrollable directly from the widget, but you can specify clicking on the widget to either add a new event or see the full calendar. The pinch zoom on the calendar app itself is very nice, and I've found it superior to agenda-type views. You can try the app itself out for free, then decide if you want to pay for it to get the widget.
I don't use a bookmark widget, but live bookmarks is supposed to be pretty good and HTC like (note, it's a live folder, not a widget)

I will give those a try, thank you for your suggestions...Greatly Appreciated!
I don't know of any widgets to do this, but I suggest not buying anything. 3.1 has support for re-sizable widgets, should be pushed out in June.

Looking forward to that update for sure, wish they would also add the option of removing/renaming App shortcut names leaving just the icon on your homepage like LP.

May in fact (just) ... due 31/05 .... in other words sometime in the next 24 hours and 46 minutes

[Q] I'm looking for certain widgets...

Are there any apps in the market that will let you have:
A transparent calander widget.
A photo grid where I can view multiple photos as a widget.
A transparent RSS news feed where I can insert multiple feeds.
I know that if these widgets/apps exists, I will have to pay for them, and I don't mind.
Thanks for the help in advance.

Assuming you want an agenda list rather than a month-view calendar, here are the ones I've tried:
PureCalendar Agenda (non-free): Very full featured - you pick the theme, colors, transparency level, and which calendars you want displayed.
Colorize Widget (free): A series of transparent widgets for things, including calendar. Pretty nice
QuickAgenda (free): Very lightweight and simple agenda widget
I have actually bought all the "Pure ____ widgets", of which Se7enLC recommendes the calendar. I recommended it, it's really worth the 1 dollar it costs.. There's also a "pure news widget", which could be the RSS-widget you want. It reads your RSS-feeds from google reader.
Both pure calendar and pure news widgets are skinnable, i.e. you can have calendar and RSS/news with identical graphical design..
EDIT: and yeah, they can both be skinned to be transparent..

Agenda Widget

Hi,
Just received my s3 today. I really like to have a widget that just show my upcoming calendar events. Just like when you touch the calendar widget... but without the calendar.
Any help how to achieve this would be much appreciated.
This widget exist
Not on my Watch!? There is one which shows events of the current day, but to get the agenda of lets say the next three upcoming events in my calendar I have to touchclick it, so it is the same as with the calendar widget. Or do I miss something?
