Have been searching everywhere for this, is it still available?
On T Mobile (UK) G2 Touch.

The beta (0.695) disappeared from my market a week or more ago... I had a backup .apk but that now reports that the beta period has expired and closes straight away.
The full version 1.0 is in my market, but priced at a fairly lofty $9.99..... quite expensive for an app in my eyes! I'm still trying to weight up whether it's worth it.
try toggle setting 2.5.8 it's nice, not like locale but 10$ its TOO much for that kind of program..
maybe can u try to look setting profiles full seems to be nice and still in development! it cost 3$..
ciao
setting profiles works actually better, easier than locale beta used to; also: less battery drain! Thanks to Locale making THEIR price so ridicul, showing that there are good alternatives!
I just switched from the Locale beta to Setting Profiles Full. In my opinion, it blows Locale out of the water.
It doesn't use GPS based location, only cell based. However, it seems way more responsive (no 10 min waits that I've observed). It also has an option to backup current settings. It can change the brightness without turning off the screen (something Locale said it couldn't do because of the OS). Battery consumption seems on par with what I had before, but I'm only on my second day of using it.
The only big thing I think it's missing is prioritizing the rules, so one rule can clobber another rule. Also, it doesn't support any kind of plugins.
I'm totally sold on it. I played with the free Lite version first. It has all the same functionality, but can only have one active rule. Once I saw it did everything I used Locale for, I purchased the full version. All the configuration I did in the Lite version imported to the Full version. I also put it on my wife's phone and restored a backup to it to copy all my settings there (another thing totally impossible with Locale).
For the record, I used Locale to alter brightness (including use of the Dark Screen plugin), alter volume, enable/disable wi-fi, and enable/disable airplane mode. I based this stuff on location, time of day, charging status, and calendar entrys. Settings Profiles does all this stuff just like Locale (but I miss Dark Screen).
So to sum it up, as a former Locale beta user, I think Setting Profiles is BETTER and well worth the $2.95 I spent for it.
Another plus point: my stubbering bluetooth headphone issue was also gone after switching from locale to setting profiles! Jogging is fun again!
I just bought a Legend and only now realized that android calendar will not allow an event to recur every 4 weeks. I really need to be able to do this. Is there a way, without setting up a GoogleCalendar (I really don,t want my appointments in cyberspace)?
Thanks
Just choose one of the "Monthly" (e.g. on every sunday or every 23rd of the month) options under "Repetition" when creating a calendar item.
Month=4 weeks
I don,t think that's the same. Every 22th of the month is not every 4 weeks and neither is every 4th monday for exsample
Ooops... I see...
Not sure the best place to post this question. Here in Sydney, Australia, we just switched over to daylight and added 1 hour. The phone automatically added one hour which is great. However the allarm that i had set did not go off at the correct time. The Alarm was set to go off at 5am, but instead it went off a 6am. I did a test and set the alarm and it did go off at the correct time. Does anyone know why the alarm did not work correctly?
Look at it the bright way.. I live in Aus too, and Fedora set my system clock 1 hour back instead of forward :/
It might be because the alarm set itself using UTC. Most Linux/Unix devices set their system clock as UTC and artificially change it to the correct timezone, because otherwise if you cross the international date line (or change time at any point), weird stuff happens, and you start to see files as created 18 hours in future, etc.
It's possible that alarms during DST were overlooked during development, and Samsung forgot to manually modify the alarms when DST starts. It's an easy problem to overlook, and it wouldn't surprise me if plenty of other devices/mobiles had the same issue
meh.. so you missed 1 alarm. I never expect my workers to show up for work on time during dst switch over

Hello
WP7 Calendar is now available. This application enable to consult your calendar synchronized with your smartphone.
The application is available through this link:
http://windowsphone.com/s?appid=6bbbd974-077f-4217-98e9-1d177b5570d0
There is a trial version to allow you to discover the application, don’t hesitate to download it
The launching price for one week is set to 0.99 then it will pass to 1,49
Good use
Laranzu
Does this works with already existing calendars or you need to add that to the app ?
The app use the calendar associated to the account you set in your phone.
The app recover automatically the appointment set for each account.
And what are the benefits/advantages/unique features over built-in calendar? Why should I buy this one?

Because it displays week numbers, maybe?
I'll give it a try and report back...
Edit: On the Display page (as shown on last thumbnail) maybe you should leave the start and end times free to choose, not everybody does a normal job, you know, just an opinion. And by tapping the tile, day or week (depending on the tile tapped) should be opened instead of the parameters page which IMHO should be last..
Nice app otherwise, the built-in calendar is frustratingly lacking features.
well, the starting point of the project was to offer a week view. It's something that the built in app doesn't not offer
The browsing between the different view is done with flick instead of having to tap on an icone in the application bar. In the build in app to access month view you have an icon for that.
The month view i provide give some usefull information that let you know if you have appointment in the morning, afternoon or all day. The build in app just display text so small that it's useless.
You can swap easily between view by clicking on week number or on the days. Nice when you want to set an appointment in the futur.
For the tile, you have 2 kind of tiles : week or day. The built in app offer only day and for only the next appointment.
With my tile you can have a graphic view of the day or week and/or the next 2 appointment for the current day.
But the best way to discover the app is to give it a try
Its nice application, but only 5 starts in trial mode is very liitle :-( When i set Live Tiles, some options and trial is done :-( Cannot test, 10 starts could be better number...
One definite bug, and two maybes (first one is a bug);
1) When doing AM/PM, it shows Noon as 12AM middle of day - should be 12PM (this is on day and week views)
2) When viewing day, it does not display starting at the start time you select (not sure where it starts, at current time of day you view it?). Week does.
3) My live tile shows nothing when you first pin it. Takes awhile to show anything (I am guessing the 30 minutes).

This one is a critical; if author not implemented prompt tile updates (using push notification), this app is useless (regardless of week view).
1) hmm, my mistake. didn't notice that as i mainly use 24h.
2) when you display current day, time is set to the current time. When it's not current day, it's start à midnight. I have to agree that currently the parameter is not clear. Should be better with the next update
3) The first tile update is not generated from the app. you have to wait max 30mn. it's also something i'll adress in the next version.
Beside the first generation, update are running fine.
Thanks for the feedback, it'll help improve the application.

Thanks. Love the week view. My wife loved it so got it for her's as well.
Following the return of the betas testers and also of the first users, here are the main elements of future V1.1:
View:
- Addition of fixed hour day view (almost finished)
- Addition of a 24hours scrolling week view
Tile: Improvement
- dedicated screen for customization
- Tile preview in the app
- First tile generation made from the app
Number of launch for trail version increased : between 10 and 20 (to be defined)
+ several little things
Delay : Less longer than you wish, faster than you hope
Benefit from the last days to profit from launching price: change of price Monday
PS: don’t hesitate to evaluate the application
One suggestion, please consider making it open on the day view instead of the parameters page.
It's already done
check in the parameters

Sweet! I can choose any page now!
Thanks
This is a nice app. I'll like it more when it can be used to actually edit the calendar. I understand this is a limitation of the OS and not the app though.
A thought:
I don't like when calendars show Sun at the end of the week. It'd be nice to have the option to have it at the beginning of the week.
Hey,
I've an mobile data plan that restarts every 28 days. Therefore the time range of one month in the default data plan overview of Android doesn't fit for me.
Does anybody know if it's possible to change the start date of the default data plan overview with Tasker? My idea is to run a task every four weeks, which sets the new start date to the date of the current day.
I'm not an Android expert but I guess it's possible with this function: https://source.android.com/devices/tech/connect/data-plans
Thanks
