Calendar events to show on the lock screen? - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

There has to be something i am missing. I cant seem to find anything to help with this. Ive seen a screen shot somewhere that the person had calendar events showing on the lock screen.
I am using Jorte calendar syncing with my google calendar. The default calendar has all the events listed in it too so it seems to sync with googles calendar too.
Is there something i have to set somewhere, or maybe something else i need to use to get things showing up on the lock screen?

You need WidgetLocker. The stock lockscreen will not be able to add widgets to the lockscreen.

Calender notifications in SE Panel 1 and 2?

I like the SE panels but I have one subject I don't like.
The calender notifications in the panel are only re-occurring entries.
Normal entries like only one appointment is not visible in the panel view....
Can't find an option in the menu...
Does anybody know how to change this?
Anybody the same experience?
panel calender
I do have just the same problem. And I cannot figure out why. I am using the the newest Generic_DE ROM.
It did work before - so something must have changed - but I have no idea what....
Anybody an idea`?
Panel Calender not showing all entries
I am not sure, what is wrong with my calender within the panels. Normal calender views work perfect, but the panel calender mostly shows recurring entries - ALSO SOME normal entries. But I have no idea why he is showing some but most are not visible.
I did not find any options for that calender - does anybody have an idea what is going wrong??
Thanks for your time...

Calendar events vanished from grid view and HTC widget

Hello everybody,
I've been a happy Hero convertee since my device arrived two days ago. Well, I had to weather the Facebook-bug but there's plenty of help on the web. However, it seems that I've found somethimg new:
For some reason, my calendar does no longer display events in the grid view while list view keeps working perfectly. Also, the HTC calendar widget (small layout) does show no events in the preview area (although there are events) while the Android calendar widget still does its job. Soft resetting and re-syncing did not help...
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks,
Abed
i got the same problem whith the htc calendar widget yesterday. It dont show the next upcoming event.
My alarms from the calender has also stop working, so somthing must be wrong with the calender, but i cant find anything...
I also have problems, when i use the htc agenda widget and the pure calender widget. But the calender under android widgets, seems to work better. My problems are, that it stops showing events that has been created a long time ago.
Same problem here, post Orange update, no calendar widget updates.

Adding B-Day date on a contact?

hi,
i just wanted do add a bday to one of my contacts and i couldnt on the phone only online in my google account... is there a way to add this in phonebook or not?
and does anyone know a widget that shows my next/future calender items and birthdays on homescreen and im able to set the weeks or days it shows in future?
There is an app called birthday or something like that. I use that since Google doesn't have an entry for birthdays. Only thing is that only syncs with your facebook contacts but I believe you then can edit anyone that isn't also so now it will have their birthday on to your G contact. It also has a reminder widget if you want it.
It's not perfect and the UI isn't the prettiest but it works.
There is a feature in Google Calendar where you can add your Gmail Contact birthdays. I then use Agenda Widget which shows everything on your calendar/s and it comes in different sizes.
You can always do it on your pc as well, via gmail, under contacts.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I do this too. It's a great solution
There is also an entry for this problem in the Android bug/feature request list:

Calendar Appointments not showing in Agenda Widgets

Some of my calendar appointments do NOT show up in any agenda/calendar widget I have tried.
I have two google-based calendars (work and personal). All appointments from both calendars DO show up in the calendar *application*.
However, only appointments in my personal calendar (default gmail account) show up in ANY widget, and NONE AT ALL show up in the default calendar widget.
As far as widgets are concerned, I have tried:
- Default
- Jorte
- Smooth Calendar
- Agenda Widget
Has anyone had a similar issue/any known workarounds/widgets which DO work?
Thanks!
Augusto
I use "Smooth Calendar" and have multiple calendars synced with it. These include calendars I own and ones I am sharing.
All of them show up in the widget no problem.
I recommend using it, as it is the nicest calendar widget I have found. One tap on it will let you enter config, refresh or calendar. Under config you can select which calendars will show up.
Cheers
Have tried it, but it doesn't work (and I would prefer more calendar entry lines).
I forgot to mention that my work calendar is automatically picked up by the calendar system as it is a shared calendar visible from my personal account.
Ill try to remove the "shared" view and add it explicitly in the calendar app.
Thanks - any more suggestions welcome.
Agenda widget
Does somebody now a widget for the Xperia X10 like the agenda widget on the Samsung Galaxy SII? You can scroll in that one.
any chance to sync to google??
use pure grid calendar widget:
choose android auto select for calendar input source
go to applications and sync, google account, then sync calendar
refresh the app with it's refresh button and voila your appointments are there

Calendar widget stopped updating event colors. How do I fix this?

I use Google Calendar, and color my events accordingly.
The colored events used to show on my widget, but now it doesn't; it's just one color.
How do I make this go back to what it was?
I removed all other Google accounts on my tablet (aside from the main one), cleared all data for the calendar and calendar storage, and it still doesn't show up the event colors like it did before.
Started doing this on my phone now... the hell? -_-
