When i first set it up it showed 2 events, and now it is only showing one. Any idea how to fix?
Is anyone else experiencing this?
i am having this problem as well. did you resolve it? my calendar widget used to show as many events as would fit in the box but now it;s only showing 1 no matter how large i make it.
i tried downloading a third party calendar widget and it also would only display 1 event so i am thinking it's something i messed up with the phone itself or google calendars.
if you've resolved this please let me know how. thanks!
The widget is still broken for me. Samsung fixed it in the Israeli 3.2 rom but not the US one.
I now use an app from the market called Wizz. It has awesome Widgets including a multi day agenda widget.

I use 3 Google Calendars on my account, personal, work and rota. Since I've had my Nexus One, I notice some of them are not showing on the calendar on my phone, although I see them on the web version.
When I click some of them it shows -
Creator: [email protected] for Work
Most others don't show creator info (probably set before I had a Nexus), just the event time and date... these one's show fine.
Does anyone know what's happening? I rely on them quite a lot, so if things stop working, it's going to make my life more difficult
**EDIT** Okay, literally as I'm typing this and playing with things, they all seem to have come back...
Anyone ever seen this happen?
Also, while I'm here, how do I change the first day of the week to be a Sunday instead of a Monday on the Nexus Calendar?
Thanks for any help...
This is apparaently quite a common issue => search or google calendar sync issue in google and you'll find lots of info on it esp. the Google Calender help forum.
This happened to my nexus and I read somewhere that programs like toggle settings and quick settings seem to cause this (something to do with them taking control over sync settings). So I uninstalled both of them and a couple of hours later I was glad to see the calendar sync was working again!
I did however quite like Toggle settings and wish there was a way I could use it without it messing up the calendar sync function. If anyone has any ideas that would be greatly appreciated.
When I add an appointment to my calendar it adds it to My Calendar as default. Does anyone know how to default it to a google calendar like, other Android phones?

I am also having this problem. I would like to set the default calendar to be my Exchange calendar, so I don't have to remember to switch it every time I create an appointment.
did anyone ever come back with an answer on this? I would love to have a way to set google as my default calendar for syncing purposes...
I need this too, I just simply need the real android calander app back becuase I use the widgit from it to keep me alert of what I have to do when.
This stupid thing has this weird clock calender widget that takes a whole page and tells you nothing
I've looked everywhere I can, but I just can't find where to set a default calendar for new appointments. I can't believe they left such a simple and needed setting out.
I agree, this is very annoying. Hope this gets fixed either by a new ROM or an update.

Download another calendar application such as android agenda widget. They give you options to save.

Thank god I'm not going crazy by myself with this - been looking for three days for a way to do this, thinking "it's an Android phone - surely you can set it to use your Google calendar as default!" But apparently I've been once again bitten by Samsung's crew of retarded engineers...
Yeah, this drives me up the wall, too. It's a shame, because I really love this calendar app.
Hopefully, they fix it. And if they never do, I'll just be sad.
I'm in the same boat here too going crazy over this.
Fyi, I gave instructions on how to do this in the sticky last night. I did it and it's FANTASTIC!
Download cyanogen 5.0.7 stable. I'll try and upload the files tonight if people need help.
I tried using the stock 2.1 app and it has that weird box on the top so I tried to push the touchwiz cal back but I have permission issues. Good thing I did a nandroid backup before I messed with it. I have resigned to just hitting new instead of long pressing in the calendar to add events and changing the default reminder to 15 min. Those 2 things are standard options that should be in any calendar made for android.
This happens on my Evo (Stock ROM Froyo 2.2) and may be happening on yours too. Can somebody verify this bug?
My calendar has a bunch of appointments put in either by our Exchange server or manually added by me. Normally these look fine. However, if I go into the built in calendar application and click the search button (magnifying glass) and then search for an appointment something strange happens. Once the search finds the appointment and I press on the appointment to open the event, the time now shows 12:00 AM. instead of when the appointment really is. Now, the time isn't actually changed because if I navigate/scroll to the actual event and open it from there it's fine.
I never noticed this before and I don't know if it's related to the latest update released by Sprint. Can a few of you try this and report back. I appreciate the help.
i wish I could get my company exchange to interface with the stock mail app What does touchdown do so differently that the stock widget can't?
I was having another issue, totally not the same. Since the update 2 days ago, i have been having an odd issue where facebook events (b days) have vanished off the widget. When i open the app, and remove the widget, then re apply the widget, magically they are back on the list... for about 24 hrs.
It is driving me nuts
Hi there,
Here's an odd bug I've been experiencing for some time now, wondering if anyone else is seeing this. I've experienced it with the last stock Froyo EC02 install as well as the current Gingerbread EF02.
I use and really like the Sammy stock calendar app. In the calendar list it shows 3 calendars, My Calendar, the gmail calendar, and an exchange calendar. I want to set the gmail calendar as the default, but every time I do it it changes the calendar ringtone to "Silent". Then I go to ringtones and reset it to any other ringtone and the default calendar changes back to "My Calendar". WTF!
I've been living with "My Calendar" as the default, that means I have to choose the correct calendar every time I create a new event. Anyone else see this bug? Any suggestions. (Please don't just tell me the app sucks and I should use xxx instead.)
Thanks
I currently have my gmail calender set as the default and have a ringtone. I haven't set up an exchange account yet, but I need to. I'll do that and see if I can reproduce. Using virgin EC02.
Bump.......Nobody has ever seen this bug but me?
That is correct.

I have seen this as well. I just figured it was just me and never posted about it. This bug does cause me some issues. I like to use Calendar Snooze to manager my reminders. I believe this bug is what causes some of my reminders to never chime.

I have the same problem. I don't have any solution - I'm not even rooted and I'm not skilled in that sense. But I wanted you to know you're not alone or crazy. Very annoying bug.
What I've done in the past is simply log into the google calendar on my computer and delete 'my calendar'. I did it because I was annoyed by many of my entries not syncing because they were saved under the wrong calendar. But, maybe deleting 'my calendar' will help your situation as well.

Seems like a great idea, but "My calendar" doesn't show up anywhere except on my phone. I'd love to delete it from the phone but I don't know how.
I use cozi and prefer it. You might give it a try. Its in the market and syncs multiple phones together so your family can share a camera. Handy for parents.

Not what I'm looking for.
I have the same issue
I reset phone to stock. Was working fine with the CalendarAlarmHelper before the reset. Also works when using frozen or any of the like firmwares...this is the first time I've had this issue...Im testing different things right now. Adding events to my cal, fixing the sound. I'll let you know how I make out.
After Trying different programs
I tried testing what the issue was. Reinstalling gmail app, adding new calendars, different notifications, chrome imbedded calendar app function changes, nothing worked. Honestly if I could get into the program of the calendar app and edit it, im sure i could find a fix for the bug in the program. But I ended up purchasing Nudnik Calendar Notifications, this one worked for my Epic 4G it was $2.50 but well worth the hassle. Custom notifications, works for all calendar events.
Wow, a thread rises from the dead. I liked the stock calendar, but this bug made me give up on it and start using Business Calendar instead. I just missed one too many appointments because the alert kept shutting off.
My stock calendar sometimes shows the wrong date. For instance, today is Monday, Aug. 15, and my calendar widget is showing Saturday, Aug. 13.
Some days the calendar is in sync, some days it is not. But this is the first time it has been off by two days!
Anybody else experiencing this? If it was showing the wrong date every day I would think that I have the settings wrong. But, as a said, some days it is correct.
Anybody know how to fix this?
More info...
What firmware are you running? Some firmwares have possibility to take date from network in the date and time settings, others not etc.
Is it the tab showing the wrong date as well or just the widget, or calendar and widget? Does the lockscreen show correct when the other thing(s) are wrong?

I don't have my tab with me right now so I don't know the firmware. But I've had it only for about three weeks.
The tab shows the correct date and time, and when I open the calendar, it shows the correct date. The lockscreen shows the correct date and time. Only the widget shows the wrong date.

Same issue here. My exchange calendar and email widget's both have this issue of not updating properly. Once the app is open the widget's seem to update immediately after and then go back to not updating. Have not found a fix.
Mine's the exact same way. Calendar widget is very inaccurate. I'm on my 2nd Tab and it's not any better. The calendar itself updates almost instantly like it should, as well as Gmail. I think the widget doesn't have/get instant updates from the calendar itself, the widget directly talks to Google's servers for its updates, and/or the widget has a long update interval... like 2-3 hours or something like that. I think that explains why the calendar widget can get 1-2 days behind if you don't have your Tab and the Wifi on most of the time. I've noticed that if I use it heavily or leave the Wifi on all the time, the widget doesn't lag behind the calendar as bad as if I only use the Tab a couple of quick times a day.
Yet something I hope gets fixed in HC 3.2 or ICS.
