S Planner not showing up custom calendar - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there. I'm a subscriber of a few sports custom calendars on Google that show up nicely on Google Calendar and on S Planner, except for one! It used to show up properly, but now it doesn't (which means I don't really know when it stopped). I subscribe to the League, Cup, Continental and State championship calendars for my team, and only the National League one doesn't show up on the phone. All the others show up nicely.
The box on S Planner to show that calendar is ticked, just like every other. I have tried unsubscribing from it on Google Calendar and then re-subscribing, changing its colors... but nothing made it show up on the phone.
Anyone has any suggestions?
Thanks!

Calendar and Other Calendar Issues

so now that football season is here i added an nfl and college football schedule to my google calendar online, but it's not synching to my g1. i went on my phone and settings>more>my calendars>add calendar and the only one showing up is weather. i've rebooted, syched, added/dropped pretty much everything and it's not showing up on my phone. anybody run into this?

Another calendar issue

My calendar has started being a real pain in the backside today. I was reading a few topics on the calendar and after checking my battery usage daily I thought my calendar had started using a lot more battery than it used to (used to be around 5-8% on a full charge, recently its been 15-20%).
So I wasn't able to find any fix in the other threads and someone suggested clearing the data from the app manager which I did. The problem now is that my calendar is messed up. I only use it for birthdays linked via facebook and holidays. It is showing the holidays fine but it is no longer showing birthdays. It shows some (3 to be exact) however there used to be waaaaay more as it showed all my facebook contacts birthdays. The 3 people that it is showing seem to just be random and it says they've been linked from facebook.
The good news is that my calendar battery usage is back down to below 5%, but maybe that's because it isnt even working as it should.
Anyone have any suggestions. I really don't want to do a factory reset. It took me about 3-4 hours to sort out my contacts and link them all correctly so doing that again would drive me mad (unless there is some way I can do a backup which includes the contact links?)
Sorry, I can't help you but HTC clearly has issues with Google Calendar. My calendar eats battery and often sits at the "Loading" screen. I see lots of issues on the forum, and few solutions. Time HTC fixed it.
Hi,
Yeah its a known issue. I have the same problem. I e-mailed HTC about is last week and they replied saying that they know about it and should be fixed in an update soon.

Hello!
I tried the clear-data for the calendar and the battery consumption has dropped to normal levels again.
Thing is my Facebook birthdays are not showing up anymore (at least most of them...).
Also, I would like to ask another thing.
Is there a way for the calendar to display birthdays for people that you don't have as friends in facebook but you have their birthdays stored in your phone contact list??
And one final question. If you go to Google calendar online (from a PC) there is an option to have your favorite teams' schedules on your calendar. Is there a way for these schedules to appear on your phone calendar as well?
Thanks!

I have the exact same facebook birthday issue because I did the exact same clear data thing. Battery consumption from the calendar has disappeared thankfully but now the facebook birthdays don't appear.
I eventually gave up and left it. Day by day the facebook birthdays have been appearing strangely. Initially only 2 friends birthdays were appearing after clearing the calendar data, then the next day there were about 4, then the next day a few more and its gradually populating the calendar. There are still some missing but I'm hoping they will appear soon as everyday there seems to be some more added.
It is very strange but give it a few days and see if it starts populating.
Same here. Cleared the calendar data and it has resulted in similar effects (improved battery, weird calendar). I'm surprised that such basic functionality (HTC syncing with Google calendar using a Google OS) has caused such problems.
Oh, any syncing my favourite team (the one and only Glasgow Celtic) would be nice. Any ideas? I have Celtic's fixtures in Google Calendar on a PC but they don't appear in my syncs.

Calendar Syncing Warning

I went ahead and moved all my contacts, etc. over to start using as my phone. Here is a word of caution to all. I'm sure it won't be an issue with most users, or people familiar with Android already. I used MyPhoneExplorer to start syncing all my contacts from Outlook, and my Calendars from Thunderbird Lightning. I did it this way specifically to avoid storing these on an outside server. I was not careful enough...in the background over the last 10 hours, it took all my business client contacts and merged them into my gmail account...which sucks but fixable with some time. But along with this it took all my client accounts calendar info and put it online and public viewable...2 years back worth of private client info! I would have never noticed, but I just happened to come accross google dashboard, and thought it would be interesting to see what info google collects from their various programs. Bam...front and center, under calendar was my clients name, address, time of our last meeting..and everything discussed. Took me a while to figure out how delete all this.
Just a warning to double check all settings before using this for any work related storage that you don't want pasted for the world to see.
So, really stumped here. I've tried 4 3rd party calendar applications, all with the same result. Under Settings, Accounts, Google, I for sure have calendars unchecked. I've used 3 or 4 different syncing programs to transfer my Thunderbird calendar to Atrix. Everything works flawlessly...syncing between Thunderbird and device is especially nice using MyPhoneExplorer. I constantly check the settings tick box...and calendar always remain empty = NOT SYNC. Except my calendars always end up uploading to the internet and appearing in my gmail calendar. Ultimately, I need to use this for business...and this is unacceptable. Is there some other setting I'm missing. I realize Google wants to get their hands on your info at every chance...and yes I know there is a trade off to use their services for free. But I'm not seeing a way to even use a 3rd party calendar w/o it getting sucked up by Google. I have no idea what that tick box is for, if it is going to sync no matter what you tell it.
Anyone know of a solution, or workaround? Been at this for weeks now with no luck. Have a nice new phone, and still have to carry around my old Tilt with me everywhere I go. I'm actually using the Tilt more, since I can't seem to get this hardware superior phone to do what my dinosaur does flawlessly.

Calendar App

Hi, probably too soon, but has someone already managed to solve the one calendar problem on Calendar App? Like, i use google calendar with multiple calendars in it (basically, for different colors display on phone), an would be nice to have this feature here... I know, probably wont be fixed till final release, but just wanted to know if someone had an Idead =)
BTW, loved this consumer preview! Really, just put google account somewhere, and everything else started sharing and syncing!!
Havn't had time to install the Consumer Preview yet (and I don't really use Google Calender), but there is a similar problem with WP7.
Now I don't know if the Calender app support multiple calenders correctly (might be an issue on Windows 8's side), but if it does (like WP7), you need to select which calenders to use in Google.
Again, I am not too familiar with this, but this might the same problem so this page might help you:
http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2450384
If it doesn't work after that try manually syncing Google or re-adding your Google account.
hm, good shot, but two problems...
first, I used to have this problem on iphone, and solved like the way you showed. On android, don't have this issue, can't even access this webpage cause it has other ways to solve. So, i used my sister's iphone, and went to m.google.com/sync, and there the only thing that showed was Windows Mail, no calendar options =/
Tryed to resync, no luck, since different from mail app, it can't be done. You cand Add accounts, but not delete...
But, anyway, its a beta, probably things are gonna change in the near future
BTW, when windows phone 8.0 show up, my galaxy sII will have a mini heart attack, haha
thanks anyway

Hi,
Currently per Google's request for bandwith, Calendar App only Sync root calendar.
Developers on both sides are working on this issue to improve accessibility on this.
Thank you for using Windows 8 and your feedback.

i got my google calendar to work in sync with the calendar app for windows 8 if that is what you are asking i could explain? google calendar colors is another story though, can't replicate the color scheme on w8
he meant multiple calendars using the same account, currently the calendar will only show the primary calendar, it has no options to see the other calendars created under the same account, reason is in that quote of mine above

[Q] How to make Google Now control my trips?

I usually use TripIt to manage my flights, hotel, and all the information we like to have in one place when we travel. TripIt can be seen from Google Calendar, in a separate calendar... and that is my problem. Since TripIt events are placed in a separated calendar, and Google Now only reads my main calendar, I cannot make Google Now to learn anything about my trips.
I wouldn't mind to do something by hand in order to have, for example, reminds to do the check-in, etc. How does Google Now works? When will Google Now show me cards about my flights? When I search for them? But how can Google Now known what day I am traveling? (in general the flight number is the same every day).
If somebody knows how to better use Google Now, please give me some tips.

For flights, you enter the carrier and flight number as a google search ( for example, jet blue 1234) and a card will come up with all of the flight info including gate, arrival/departure, and if its on time. Recently, calendar integration has been added to google now to show upcoming events in the recent update. Try to add your Triplit account under the phone accounts and sync the calendar. This may work if you have an email and password for that account.
Here's a card list help section from google: https://support.google.com/nexus/4/answer/2839499?hl=en&ref_topic=2839478
Good Luck.
Now is still very hit and miss, I wouldn't depend into for any crucial information.

Thank you for the tips. The problem is that if I search jet blue 1234, it will show me the informations of the flight of today, not the day I am travelling, which carries the same number.

There is no way to add the tripit account. The calendar is however already seen, because I have the calendar in my Google Calendar, but Google Now will only read the main calendar (which of course is not the one managed by tripit).
