How can I change my standard calendar app for calendar widgets? - OnePlus 6T Questions & Answers

I have a calendar widget (your calendar widget) on my homescreen. Always, when I click on it, it opens google calendar.
However, I would like it to open my another calendar app I recently use (Jorte).
In the android app settings, I cannot change the standard calendar app. I only found options to change standard apps for mail, browser, launcher, sms and so on, but no calendar.
How can I change it?

as far as I know, this is based on the widget. This widget can only open the Google Calendar. If you want it to open jorte, you have to use another widget.

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

[Q] Seperate icon for each gmail?

I have 2 gmail accounts on my phone setup right now and i hate having to switch between them while in gmail app itself. Is there anyway to have 2 gmail icons on the home screen 1 for each?
Would also like to know this. It is a pain in the ass how the gmail app handles multiple accounts. I would at least want a option to have the app reset to the accounts screen every time I close it.

I use "Gmail Unread Count" widget from the market, working pretty nicely so far. I have 2 gmail accts and put a widget for each on my homescreen, has customizable icon and shows the number of emails unread in each acct and tapping whichever widget opens the acct you have it set to check.

Email unread count widget - A wishlist

So I use gmail, and a corporate email account.
I can't stand 200+ notifcation bar messages a day for my email so i disable the notifications. I use gmail unread count widget and have for over a year. However, it does not do exactly what i want. So, here is my wishlist.
A widget, which looks like an email envelope that sits on my main homescreen, and is 1x1 in size.
Said widget should give me an unread count number for my gmail account and exchange account all in one number on the widget.
When the widget is tapped, it opens the stock samsung combined inbox app, which hosts my gmail and exchange accounts.
As it is now, my unread count widget only shows my gmail unread count, and when tapped, launches the android default gmail app, NOT the samsung combined inbox. So, I have to manually check for exchange emails periodically to see if I have work emails. This basically sucks. I mean it's great for gmail, but for work, i end up being late to respond when I'm out and about.
Does a widget like this exist? If not, is this something I could make in app inventor?
Help?
Launchr pro has that built in as an option. It may only be for gmail, that is all I use and all I can confirm.
Hmm... Problem is, I use adw launcher. Anyway to extract that apk?

It's not an apk by itself, it's a feature of LP. It doesn't work that way.

Calendar does not sync all Gmail Apps Calendars!!!!

The standard calendar app doesnt show all calendars. If I add new calendars though there are shown in the standard Calendar app.
Weird enough some third party apps do allow to select all other gmail app calendars, but they are marked as inactive?
How do i get teh calendar to sync all Gmail Apps Calendars?
Weird, when I go into the calendar settings and click calendars, all of them show up.

With google calender the first time the sync occurs, it happnes with the calenders that are enabled google calendar on the web.
Here is what u can do .
1. Go to google.com/calendar and make all the calendars visible
2. In phone - settings /manage applications delete the data from calendar and calender storage.
3. then settings / accounts and sync - re sync calendar.
Now all the calenders will come in calendar app in phone.
Select the ones that u want.
Thanky you
I tried your method of deleting the data and then re-syncing the accounts. But, now even the main calendar from my google account has disappeared and refuses to show up. Is there something missing here??? Cal widget for example shows all the calendars in its configurations but does not show any of the events from the same.
there is something wrong with the default calendar. I am running stock rom xxki3.
Hi, I had similar issue, i think this is one of known issue on android, I tried "clear data" method, sometimes it may work, sometime it doesnt. I google for solution and I found this temporary workaround would solve the issue, atleast for me..
you may want to try this:-
1. Go to android setting, application (all), clear data on calendar storage (WARNING-this step will wipe all calendar entries which were saved internally on your phone)
2. Go to market, download & install this app called: Business calendar (FREE)
(This app have direct connection to google calendar, which will also download and keep all of your calendars entries (including sub calendars)
3. Open business calendar, login with your gmail account, and it will start sync
(manual: more > sync now) it may take few mins, be patient.
this way, your stock or default calendar will get synced as well automatically...try this out
Thanks for the tip. After selecting the sub-calendars on the app, the default calendar also started recognizing the same. Weird.....
This tips is working.
First time, this doesn't work, I had to erase my google account (by the way to refresh my apps ^^).
But the second time, it worked.

I think this is a bug in Samsung Calendar app. The first time the phone synchronize with google calendar, the phone will download all calendars available for the google account. Each calendar has two flags, sync and visible. The first time, all calendars will be flag unsync and hidden (not visible) except our main calendar. After that we can use the calendar app to choose which calendar will be sync and visible. The problem with Samsung Calendar app, if the calendar is flagged as hidden, then the Calendar apps won't recognize the calendar at all, so we can't change the flag to visible. This does not happen with my other phone. So this is not Android bug. I think this bug exist since Samsung Galaxy S. Someone in Galaxy S use sql editor to edit the calendar database. Meanwhile I use Calengoo. Bussiness Calendar can be used as well

How to change default calendar?

I´ve recently got the GS4 and I not a big fan of Samsung's calendar. I´ve installed Google's Calendar on the GS4 but Samsung's calendar still the default one. I use glass widget calendar on my homescreen so that I can view my events and when I click on it it takes me to my calendar. So right now I´ve managed to configure this app to take me to Google's Calendar, but I'd like this to be the default calendar always.
You could try disabling it in titanium backup or using the stock application manager in settings/more
