Is there any way to use the stock calender with this phone. Samsung changed the calender to make it look better but crippled it's functionality. Having no alert option and having no way to change which calender is default is annoying. I've used a couple of roms that simply removed the samsung calender, but the calender replacements like jorte don't sync with google cal. Am I simply missing something?

Try smooth calender, free in the market.

Does this allow you to change the alert function on the calender from discreet to alert? I'm assuming it syncs with Google calender because it's a widget.

Hmm... I'm not sure about the alert. Never needed one, personally, and yes, it syncs with g calender.

While true, it's worth noting that it doesn't work.
How doesn't it work? It doesn't sync with google or do an alert? I have a job where I'm constantly running around and need to be reminded of things. With the subtle alert, you have to remember to look for the alert, which defeats the purpose. I really appreciate all the input I've received so far? Any other solutions?
I am on bubby's rom and the calendar works great...I don't know what people mean by it not working. I agree with OP, as it irritates me having to change those settings for every event. I do use Calendar Pad from market for my widget and all is good here.

Works perfect on mine.

Jorte syncs perfectly. Just choose the google calendar as the default for adding.

The developer of the ROM states as a known bug: "Stock Google calendar force closes"
So this may be an issue with some but not all. Personally, I got constant FCs with the stock calendar supplied with that ROM.
Check out this page for the vibrant. It works the same for the fascinate and its incredibly easy to accomplish.

Thanks for all the input. I know that there are several widgets that will syc wigh gcal, but I would like one that also does the full screen pop up alerts when you have a calender event. The stock calender does that, but I don't think any other calender does.

What about using Tasker and setting a profile to perform a popup alert on a calendar event?

What is Tasker? Is that an app?

Yes. You can find it in the market. It's a paid app but you can download a trial from the developers site. Just do a google.

I'll give it a look. Thanks.
I tried tasker, but I'm realizing that I just hate the samsung calender. They took out took much functionality. It defaults to a calender that doesn't sync with google, you can't auto launch maps or other apps from it. It's just too crippled and I use it a lot for business. I tried bubbles rom, but when I restore data I have no calender at all. Strange.
I think launcher pro has the best widget calender.

I tried bubbly's rom and it doesn't work. I also tried to install the calender myself, but I didn't have better luck than bubbly. It seems that there is something that just keeps it from working. I will look deeper into tasker and see if I can figure something out. I'm curious to find out if anyone has successfully managed to replace the stock calender with aosp and been able to successfully change it to alerts from taskbar notifications. When the time for the alert to happen goes off, the calender force closes.
Does anyone know if you can get the task widget on the galaxy note to link up with my google tasks. ?

In the manual it says splanner cannot be backed up to google. That's a shame as I quite liked it.

The S-Planner CAN be backed up to google, if you sync your google calendar in the S-Planner.

Yes I agree but irritatingly when you then enter diary events it uses the my diary (splanner) as default and you have to manually select the google account for each entry or did you find a way around this?
Any idea how to link google tasks to s-planner? Because no matter what I do, when I try to add a new task with it, it doesn't find my google tasks only this Samsung task....
Thank you for your help everyone!
Has anyone else got Googles own calendar missing in the ICS upgrade?

its become a widget called S-Planner...

hrmmff... And the email app ??
i can't seem to add an exchange account anywhere... ?
1. Settings>Accounts and Sync to add exchange account. If this is not in settings, something is seriously wrong.
2. The Samsung's Email app is still there--it shouldn't be missing. Samsung's calendar app is called S-Planner. If you want the stock ICS calendar, look for "Android 4 ICS Calendar" in play store.

Hello!
How to make s-Planner widget available on other Launchers? The widget actually looks nice... ive got the calendar working but want the samsung widget... its avail using touchwiz but not nova launcher.
I totally love my Note 3 and I have rooted and romed it but my biggest problem is that I need a decent calendar in monthly widget form. The best one I have found so far unfortunately is the Samsung S-Planner. Samsung castrated it when it comes to features from the Note 2 version of it but it is still the best out there.I have tried aCalendar+, Business calendar, Jorte, and Google calendar but keep going back to S-Planner.
I have been trying to find a widget that gives me a monthly calendar with all my appointments that I can link to S-planner so I can finally switch to a different launcher and say goodbye to Touchwiz forever. Of course the best would be a way to get the S-Planner widget on a different launcher but I don't think that is possible.
I have installed Zooper Widget and UCCW but I am not able to find a monthly calendar that fits my requirements
Any help and pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks:laugh:

Touch calendar. Come with adjustable widget and functions very similar to splanner. Sync with Google and all the appointments sync. I've used it when going to asop and such and been very happy.

I'm currently using another launcher and I was wondering what application has a montly view widget similar to the one offered by S-Planner (since touch with widget's don't work on 3rd party launchers).
Thanks in advance!
