I've been running EUI 21s for the past week or two instead of LineageOS that I had been running for awhile. With EUI I get much better battery life, but the calendar is terrible. Unless I have Google Calendar installed the events don't sync very fast at all (sometimes once a day or less). If I install Google Calendar the events sync near instantly, however, sometimes when events are created many duplicates are added - like 10-20 extra events! Has anyone encountered and/or overcome a similar issue?

Frequently my calendar will sync for hours on end and eat through the battery life,forcing me to turn it off altogether so I don't run out altogether. The data does actually sync fine,ie both calendars are up to date all the time, so far as I can tell. Any ideas? I have searched this forum and google to no avail. I happen to use Cyanogen's rather brilliant (experimental series) ROM, but don't feel this is related as no other Cyanogen users have reported similar issues. Can't remember if I had these problems on stock ROM. Help?
Cheers
Are we talking about the google calendar?
If it is google calendar check on your PC that you don't have background image or attach google docs enabled in your calendar. These features may not be compatible.
Cheers for the reply, interesting idea. It seems to have gone away (for now) after I exported everything to ical files, deleted everything and re-imported (via a PC). Fingers crossed..
Hello.
I've noticed recently that the Calendar application is using a lot of battery on my DHD, if I've not used my phone much since unplugging it, the Calendar claims to have used up to 50% of the battery. On normal usage it uses a similar amount as the display. I am running Leedroid 1.2 (did the same thing in 1.0) and have tried clearing the cache, unchecking the weather feature and removing the facebook calendar (I now have 1 gmail account calendar, 1 subscribed calendar and public holidays listed). I have done several restarts and it is always the same.

Does anyone have any ideas of how to resolve this? My next step would be to do a full wipe and reflash of the ROM but I would rather not get that far...
Thanks.
I have the same issue, had it on the normal OTA and now on leedroid too. I use multiple Google calendars and have Facebook and twitter sync running. It does seem to spend a lot of time synching.
Just looked at accounts and syncing and it does seem to be Google calendar that is constantly syncing.

In many different forums the same issue appears all the time. Many people resolved it by limiting their homescreen widgets that make use of calendar in some way. Sometimes even more than one make the calendar go berserk and chopchop ur power like a hungry chinese - a bowl of rice

I don't have a calendar widget. I do have the Facebook and twitter on my home screens (was about the time I started using these that I noticed it actually.)
Well it is still present after removing the Facebook and Twitter widgets (and after a restart for good measure). Maybe it is Launcher Pro?
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.
When using and syncing the agenda on an Android device (Can't test with other platforms, as I only have Android and Windows) with Google Calender the following bug is being reported by several people:
When you change a recurring event, even though you say 'only change this event' it changes all recurring events or even deletes them (even when I only changed, not deleted, a single event).
This makes the Google Calender useless on Android as you can never change single events of recurring events (for example, today I am going to the gym later than normal and wanna change that by changing and selecting 'only this event' and suddenly all my gym entires are later or even deleted)

I am, like most of you, using a Samsung Galaxy S2 normal firmware KE2
I have just issued a bug report on Google, issue number 17276.
The more people star it the faster it gets fixed.
It turns out to be an bug that has been around for almost a year, but is yet to be resolved. Shows how few people use recurring calender items with sync to Outlook 2010
Seeing the number of respondents in 1 day it is a bug that more people seem to have. https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=17276
Anyone has a workaround?
I have a OnePlus 5 running OxygenOS 5.0.2 (Oreo 8.0.0) and a sometime in the past few days the Calendar stopped syncing. I use a third party app (aCalendar), so I restored the stock calendar app and the problem didn't get fix. So I went to Setting-->Account-->Google and found that there is NO SYNC BUTTON for Calendars. It has disappeared?!?
Now I recently did an OTA, full wipe, and root about a month ago. The calendar was working fine after that. I haven't made any changes to the device within the past week or two to cause this. I've included a screenshot. Calendar isn't among the list of options to sync anymore.
Any thoughts?
