This beta is now on the market if anyone is interested: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.everybodyallthetime.android.quickagenda.trial
Still looking for feedback on this if anyone else time to test it
Just updated the market version to 0.9.2 which allows multi row widgets.

0.9.3-Beta now on market, various fixes to update logic and import/export ics files.
Multi row widgets now allow you to choose the top row and show upcoming for the others (settings->widget->event mode->chosen top, others upcoming).
Choose a row by opening the Quick Agenda, tap and hold then press "choose event"
I was looking for something to replace Smooth Calendar widget and after I tested few other, I tested Quick Agenda.
It was a litle pain to understand how to configure it, but after I managed to set it, I have to say that it is the agenda widget I was looking for!
It is working very good in my system (look at my sig ).
Feedback left on Android Market (John - Apl 17)...
Thanks for the feedback and I'm glad you like it!
Any suggestions on what I can do to make the setup easier to understand? (e.g. what did you have trouble with?)
Hard to make suggestions as I'm starting to get used to the settings...
Meanwhile, I think I found a little bug: I had four appointments for tomorrow and using the left side panel (Quick Agenda) I changed the day to April 20.
The display was refreshed ok after a minute.
After that, using again the Quick Agenda menu, I changed the dates again to April 23, but the displaying appointments were not refreshed (they were on April 20).
So, Quick Agenda had the 4 appointments showing on April 23 but the main widget menu was showing them on April 20 (when I clicked on each one to edit, the date was on April 20).
After I opened the settings menu for widget and for Quick Agenda and closed it, the display was corrected to April 23.
Something else I want to ask for, if it is possible to select a span for the days ahead which is going to be displayed in widget (e.g. only the following 3 days, etc.)
Thanks in advance
So you would like the widget to refresh when one of the events on it changes? Should be possible!
Span of days is pretty easy as well.

Maybe would be a good idea to have a service running in the background to make possible to change immediately the widget contents when an event changes or in an addition/deletion of an event (in Smooth Calendar there was the selection of auto update (for the widget) which started the background service)

Yep, an ugly content observer doing something its not supposed to the background is the way I will be doing it
Should get to it later this afternoon or tomorrow, I will try to make it steal as few resources as possible!

Done, this new setting is available in market (along with the "event look ahead"/span of days feature and other enhancements). It is sort of hidden in customize widget->update settings->Refresh on change (at the bottom).
Let me know how it goes!

I'm going to test it and tell you how it goes
Early first impressions
After installing new beta, I have to remove old widget and set all over a new one
The worse: I was almost done with my settings and I was in Quick Agenda's setting page. I pressed the bottom selection ('Widget setting') and I had Force Close
Every time I press the above selection it gives Force Close (the message it gives is:
"The application QuickAgenda (process com.everybodyallthetime.android.quickagendatrial) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
Oh no! Sorry about your settings, I will be adding a restore feature soon to load settings from other widgets (I should probably add tis function first next time).
I think I have fixed the widget settings button (uploaded a new version to the market just before). Does it fix fit?
EDIT: PM'ed you my email address, maybe we can recover the prefs
Ok I got your pm.
I'm going to send you an email in a few minutes...
This app is getting close to release time, check it out while it is free!
Recent changes:
Save/Load widget settings
rejigged the settings some more
changed the default view to be upcoming and chosen
Layout upgrades
I realized yesterday, that I think this app has an identity crisis.
Its not quite a popup agenda app
Its not quite an agenda widget app
Its not quite a count down widget app
Its not quite an ical handler app
It has all these functions though they are all muddle together.
The 2nd and 3rd are easy, remove the "single row" option from the current widget and make another widget called "countdown". But this could also be a separate application.
The first one is hard. I could release Quick Agenda as just the agenda popup and allow other applications (such as a new countdown widget app or new agenda widget app) to interface with it or I could leave it built in to this weird Frankenstein app I have already created.
The last one should be in all my apps
Any opinions?
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
Ok, this probably needs to be moved to G2x Q&A. Sorry about that.
Hey all. A bit frustrated with twitter clients because I have two twitter accounts and I was looking for one app to optimize both. I love the Plume scrollable widget, but it doesn't separate tweets well for multiple accounts (i.e. - each in its own widget).
For some reason, the scrollable widget in Tweetcaster has worked only a couple of times - that is, I've placed it on my home screen, physically scrolled it and saw it work. That was... Awhile ago. I desperately want the scroll widget to work because there's no sense in using more than one app if one does what I need. Now when I select one of the three options, I don't get a scrollable widget at all. I've tried it under multiple conditions, and I've either been using the stock, Hellfire Phoenix ROM, with no custom launcher, Launcher Pro, and most preferably GO Launcher. Scrollable widgets option is on and operational because Plume's widget works without fail.
Does anyone know what's going on here?
Is there anyway (without rooting) to change the native calendar app on this device from S Planner to Google Calendar? I can add the damn widget to my home screen but it is a very disappointing misdirection to S-Planner when you click on it.
Your post intrigues me. I can find neither a Google Calendar app, nor a Google Calendar widget. Please share your source.

The native calendar widget appears, in facade at the very least to look like the Google calendar widget.

you can try Android 4.1 Jellybean Calendar from the market... its widget (and the app) is stock android as far as i can tell and will take you to the stock calendar app on touching.
the reason i swapped s planner with this app is because of the way s planner widget shows full day events. i liked full day events to take up only a thin bar instead of the s planner way of showing full details... this app does that for you too.
As of recently there is now an Official Google calendar app.
By default, at least on my note, the widgets are all from S-planner in anycase so definitely it would open S-planner.
What you could do is install Google calendar set it as default in settings and disable S-planner altogether in the app settings. Although i dont see a widget for calendar on my tab
Hello everyone. After updating my Note 3 I realize that the AccuWeather function of the Stock Calendar stopped working. It would give you the 7 day forecast on you stock calender when seen by month view.
However after spending a day I found a fix to this problem.
Here are the steps:
1. Place the phone in airplane mode.
2. Open your weather app. Go onto it's settings. Delete the accuweather profile(s) that are set to your area. You know, The one you use to tell you the weather in your area.
3. Go into settings for the stock calender and uncheck accuweather. It should be there. If you don't have that option then you have a different issue.
4. Go to your phone settings, General Tab, Application Manager side swipe to the ALL. Scroll down until you find the CALENDER (There might be more the one. You want the one that has the highest memory used). Then clear data. I checked and it did not remove any of my appointments on the calendar.
5. Disable airplane mode.
6. Setup your weather profile for the weather app.
7. Open calender app go into settings and enable accuweather.
The 7-day forecast for the stock calender will show up on the calendar and the widget for the calender. There is the actual calendar. And the widget for the calendar if your have one on your home screen. Assuming you have the LOCATION and other applicable services enabled.
If for any reason that doesn't work go to your phone settings, General tab, storage. Then delete cache data. Then disable, then enable accuweather from the stock calender app.
Enjoy
