Android :: Opening Calendar Event From Froyo
Jul 13, 2010
I have written an application (not an usual application but a liveFolder) that get all calendars and for each calendar get all events in next few days. (The application is liveCalendar on market) Selecting un even, the eventInfo activity is displayed given the oppurtunity to the user to change or delete the event.
All work well in android < 2.1 but in 2.2 aftter retrieved an event item the event info are partially displayed correctly. More precisely, the title is well displayed (this mean that title is correcty loaded) but the data of event is always 01/01/1970 I konw the the uri is changed from Ecalir to Froyo and I have used the new URI for Froyo, infact the URI used to load event is content://com.android.calendar/events/32
This is a logcat

I have a question about the Calendar widget (the HTC one). I want to use the smaller of the widgets since I don't want the calendar to take up a full screen.
Is there any way to see more than one appointment without opening up the full calendar? You would think if you have multiple appointments in a day that you'd be able to flip through them from the widget, but you can't from what I can tell.

I am new to Android, Google calendar and the Captivate phone. Have successfully imported my old calendar to Google Calendar which initially synced with the calendar on my captivate. However, when I add a new event to my phone calendar, it does not automatically show up on the Google calendar. the Samsung rep told me I have to edit each new even to mark it as a "Google Calendar". Is there any way to make this the default option on the Captivate phone? I am hoping to have automatic syncronization b/t the phone and the Google calendar without having to force it to do so each time.

Is there a way to be notified when a calendar event is added to a shared calendar? I love using the shared calendar, but I sometimes overlook new events that were added by others.

I kept getting annoyed at having to load the Calendar to have to add an event, so I built a one-tap-add-event app which you can put on the home screen.

Is there an app or plug-in that would change the notification for calendar event reminders to a pop-up instead of in the notification bar? (like Handcent handles notification of new text messages)
Similar to how blackberry's handle calendar events..

After buying my lovely HTC Desire two weeks ago I'm now trying to start using my phone as an organizer/agenda.
Unfortunatly I really have sucky memory (hence I need to use the agenda from my phone) and thus I actually have NO idea what date it is today and everytime I goto the add event dialog I forget to look at the calendar what day it curently is (let alone tomorrow!).
Since the default app only has those anoying slider/slotbars to pick the date for an event... I keep placing events on the wrong date! :@
I've been trying to find a replacement app but the only two I've found so far (Jorte and Gemini) have the same anoying dialog to add an event!
All the other 'apps' I find when looking for android calendar apps are widget-only!!
Anyone knows a way to get a datepicker or something like that into the calendar app or a different app?
Maybe at least display the name of the day when creating a new event?

My app wants to whisk the user to the "create new event" composition window of his Calendar app, initializing begin time, end time, title and description text for the event, but then leaving him able to see these values and optionally alter them before saving (or discarding) the event using the oridinary means available to him from within the Calendar's create new event activity.
HOWEVER...
My code which works dandy on my own dev phone (indeed, on any phone running stock Android Calendar to the bone) fails on the HTC Hero. The issue is that the Hero has been "improved" by use of a non- standard Calendar app and my means of doing this is therefore failing.
I wonder if someone can outline a more generic means I can use to say "tell whatever the user's preferred Calendar app is to create a new event, seeding the effort with these key/value pairs".
Here is my present code:

I use Google Apps, and use several separate calendars. Problem is, if I don't create my event on the right calendar in the first place, I can't figure out how to move it later to the correct calendar.
I can do it in the web interface, just not in the Calendar app.

Wonder if anyone come across a droid calendar with similar event repeat function as those calendars in WinMo phones.
The particular function I am looking for is to customize the event repeat interval in terms of number of weeks or days (eg repeat every 3 weeks or 5 days etc).
Currently I don't see such function in the google calendar so I figure most droid calendars out there also do not have such function.

I am developing an application which requires to add Calendar event. I have written the code for inserting event to the calendar. But whenever i run my application, everytime i get error that "Fail to find provider info for Calendar" and it also throws me NullPointerException error. So, what it means and i found that emulator doesn't provide Calendar application in-built.I think if the Android Emulator doesn't have Calender API, so, naturally, it will not have any database URI in the emulator whereas the Contact has URI --"content://contacts/people". I also found the URI for Calendar as "content://calendar/calendars" but it doesn't work and it means that it gives me error cause of missing Calendar application.Can anybody clarify me, with suggestions regarding Calendar Event?

I am an experienced developer, but an Android newbie. I have a Droid Eris (Android 1.5), and the awkwardness of adding events to a calendar is driving me nuts. I already made a feature request, but wonder whether (a) newer versions of Android already have something like this OR (b) if I could get some implementation advice on the following idea. In particular, I wonder if there is a hook available for me to receive the necessary trigger when the user selects a time from the Calendar Day View, as described below, along with the necessary parameters (day and time that the user requested).
Alternatively, perhaps the Calendar source code is available, and I should modify that.
When adding an event (in Android 1.5) from the Day View, we currently get the full event-add dialog, say for Thursday at 4pm. An additional simple interface would make it much easier to add events to calendars, as described below.
Assume that the event is being added to the default calendar (e.g., your Google Calendar).
The first line in the screen contains 5 buttons for times in 30-minute increments around the initial time. E.g., in the 4pm example the buttons read: 3:30, 3:45, 4:00 (highlighted), 4:15 and 4:30.
The second line shows an event-duration. There are only four choices (0, 30min, 60min, all day).
Below that is the event description.
Below that is a popup menu for reminders (same as on the current event add-screen).
Below that are the opportunities to Save&Cancel.
Note that event location and event description are omitted.
If there's room above, there could be a button to take you to the full- blown event entry dialog.

I am using the Android calendar. How can I remove a calendar event using code? Is it possible?
For clarification, I would like to mention that I don't want a sync process or want to remove events using gdata api. I only want to remove a local calendar event.

In my app, I want a functionality to create calendar event. I open "new calendar event" activity like this:

It works perfectly on stock Android. On HTC Sense, I have only one issue - end time is not set correctly, it's always one hour after begin time.

Is someone from Google able to advise when the Android SDK is likely to include a public API for reading/writing event data to the user's calendar? Searching the forums I see that this is a much desired feature by many developers but I haven't seen any indication as to when (or even if) this need will be addressed.

I have a facebook event in my device's calendar that is displaying the correct time on the main calendar, but showing the incorrect event time in two different calendar widgets I've tried, as well as the event list in the Facebook app.
To make matters more complicated, the facebook app is displaying a different incorrect time than the widgets.
I've removed the facebook event from my calendar, reinstalled the widgets, done a battery pull, resynced, and the problem persists.
I think the host changed the time of the event after I first synced it to my phone, but I'm not sure.

I noticed that when I'm in Event Details and press Menu, it'll only give me:
Add reminder
Delete Event
Share vCalendar
Agenda
But no "Edit Event". In order to edit an event I have to long press while in the Agenda or Day View listing. Anyone else noticed this? I swore on 2.1 "Edit Event" was an option.

I'm going to ask a shot version of my question first because, as I was typing out my thorough explanation below, I realized that I had seen a setting that I believe fixes my problem but I cannot remember where it is or how to get to it. In short, the problem I am having is that Non-recurring events (one time appointment) that are in the Google Calendar online are not showing in the Moment calendar app. There was a Settings Page not sure if it was in the main OS menu or the Calendar menu that gave you the option of choosing to show events "before" a certain date and to show events "After" a certain date. You repeatedly tap the two "before" or "after" options and the dates would move further back in time and further forward in time respectively creating a date range.
Non-recurring events, obviously, continue to show for years prior or in the future but Non-recurring one-time events outside of a "range" of a time period do not show. Does Anyone know what the setting I am referring to and how to get back to it?? If not, perhaps my more thorough explanation of my problem and what I am trying to accomplish below might help me find the display before this date/after this date setting that I cannot find again! (longer explanation/description follows below): We have a Moment and an EVO and we are both new to Android but it appears I am only having the problem with our Moment. Though we are new to Android and the gmail sync, I am very comfortable with the sync process and working with Google Calendar online or on the phone and the settings for forcing a sync, choosing which calendars to display, etc. I did some troubleshooting of the problem and this is what I have figure out here goes:
It appears that the calendar on the Moment is only showing recurring events birthdays, anniversaries anything where the event is set to recur some time in the future. The non-recurring events a random party, a random doctor's appointment does NOT show on the Moment Calendar app! I prefaced my issue with being comfortable and familiar with the Google calendar operation because I am certain that the events are in the Google Calendar online. If I change the one-time event to a yearly recurring event and force the phone to sync then WHAM BAM the now recurring event shows in the Moment calendar app. Remove the recurrence and go back to the one-time doctor appointment, sync, and disappears again! The other odd thing is that "old" Non-recurring events that have already passed do seem to continue to show on the Moment calendar app for about a month. In other words, stuff back to about a month from today (today 7/20) DOES SHOW even if non-recurring but anything older than a month does not show.
Now I can Understand why if you had a doctor's appointment on May 20, 2010, that that even should NOT appear on either your Google Calendar online OR your Moment calendar app for May 20, **2011** because that doesn't make sense. However, it DOES make sense and is important to be able to go back to May 2010 and ask,"what day was that appointment with so-and-so company?" and you scroll back in your calendar to see the name of the company or "In February, 2010, did our son or daughter see the doctor? and you scroll back a few months to see that your son and not your daughter went. The Google Calendar online does NOT automatically purge older events, they are all visible online back yearsand years. Why is the Moment "purging"/not displaying non-recurring events on the phone that are in a range of about 1 month old to about to happen in a month?

My Calendar syncs fine, everything is synced from Google to my phone. The problem is I can not add a new event on my phone. When I open my calendar and click "New Event" the screen flashes black for a second then goes back to the calendar. I can not add a new event on my phone. Right now I have my calendar bookmarked on my browser so I can add an event that way, but that is just a temporary solution.

One of my co-workers with the HTC Incredible asked me a question that stumped me. I'm supposed to be the Android person in the office also!
She was trying to email a couple of her calendar events to her husband. In a calendar event, if you hit menu, then share vCalendar, you get the options of Bluetooth, Mail, or Message. The problem is that the Mail option is only the Mail app and not the Gmail app. Other than going into the event and adding the email address under Guests, is she (and anyone else that would want to do this) SOL?
I mentioned just sharing the entire calendar via google calendar cloud service, but he doesn't have a smartphone and that's not how she wants to share it.

I'm curious if anyone else has this problem. When an event pops up for the google calendar, it goes into the notifications and shows on my desktop widget. If I click the widget, or go into the calendar, it shows that event. The only option here is to delete, not to dismiss and I can't get to the monthly view unless I delete (even exiting and clicking on the Calendar icon just comes back to this screen).
Obviously I don't want to delete every entry in my calendar when their time is reached. The only way to dismiss the events and get back to my calendar is to go to the notifications bar in the phone and clear the notifications, or dismiss the events there. Anyone else having this problem?

I am syncing my Facebook calendar with the one on my Galaxy S. There is an event that I was invited to 29jul-28Aug that won't go away from my calendar though! I have declined it and also marked in the calendar that declined events should be hidden. Yet it is still there and the only way I can hide it is to leave out Facebook events all together.

Anyone heard anything about when this issue with Android and the calendar will be fixed?
I did some searches and this issue has been brought up as long ago as Feb 2009 on google's help page with a response from a google employee that the issue is known and being looked into.
Here's the issue: Whether you key an all day event into your google calendar via the web or onto your phone, the issue is the same. When you pull up the calendar via the monthly grid, you'll see the triangles on the days with events. If you click on a day that has an all day event (I'm not sure if this only affects 1 day events or multiple days) you'll drill down into the daily view and see the event at the top of the screen. So far, so good. The problem arises when you select the event. Under event details, the date of the event will be the day before it's actually entered into your calendar (i.e. a event for Fri 10/23 will show as Thu 10/22). If you hit menu and edit, the event edit screen now shows the correct date! The calendar widget will also show the event a day early.
For me, it doesn't matter if it's my calendar, my wife's shared calendar, google's pre-made calendars like moon phases or holidays, or whether the event was keyed into the phone or via the web interface. how many all day events I and my wife have keyed on our separate google calendars and while I want to see my current and upcoming events on my home screen with the calendar widget, this is just really irritating.

When creating an event on Google Calendar (on the web), the option to add a repeating "range" is available. For example, you can setup an event that repeats weekly. But you can also say that the event should stop at a certain date, therefore creating a range.
I created a repeating an event from Google Calendar on my Droid, however, and the range was not an option, so I had to go to the web version later and set that from there. Did I miss someting or is that option actually not available on the Android version of Google Calendar?
