The repeat function in the G1 calendar app and on the desktop Google calendar new appointment settings only offers repeat options of daily, every saturday, etc. I need to set a custom repeat schedule like you were able to do in the PIE calendar. I have tried to find another calendar app without success, does anyone know of one or if there's a way to make the Google calendar do this? Thanks in advance...
When my HTC Hero(GSM) was ky primary phone, I remember that I could have birthdays show up in the calendar, so I do not have to go to the Facebook application to see them. It was default on the hero but I can't figure out how to get it to work.
Also, I found myself envious of the new Blackberry Torch because through blackberry messenger, it adds your Facebook events to your calendar automatically. Does anyone know of a way to add this as well?

Two ways to do this that i have found.
One is to go to facebook on a the computer. Export the calendar, and then Import it into your google account. bleh
What i found today i think will do what you need.
Ebobirthday
can be found in the market. This will log into your face book account to sync with Birthdays. Then you can have it sync with the calendar inside the phone.
Hope that helps you somewhat.
This is sort of what I'm looking for, I still feel like there is a way to do this without having to resync that calendar information. Already in the phone if you pull up a contact, it does give the contact's birthday information, but for some reason it does not include that information in the calendar like it did on the Hero.
That app is a good temporary solution until I figure out how to get it to work just the way I want it. Thank you!
Edit: Playing around with it, I found a section in the menu that lets you add Calendars. In order for my Hero to have been able to sync birthdays to the calendar, there had to have been a Facebook calendar in that list, and there isn't one now. So I think to solve my problem it is just a matter of figuring out how to add Facebook to the HTC Calendar.
Hi I just received my galaxy, so possible a NOOB problem.
The problem is that I have a google calendar, and on my phone it sees both the appointments I have done on the phone and the google appointments - so this is fine.
If I make a appointment via a computer at the net on the google calendar, then it will show up on the phone calendar - this is fine.
BUT if I make an appointment on the phone - it will not show up on the google calendar on the net.
It seems like the phone uses "My Calendar" which is not synced with the google calendar - so have I missed a setting somewhere?
Thanks
When you did the calender mark did you choose google calender and not the phone calender?? take a close look so u have choose that before apply the appointment/mark in the cal. when you set the day/clock under that you can choose what calender to use....I missed that too...
Ok thanks - found the setting.
Is it possible to change the behaviour, so that when you make an appointment on the phone it is by default using the google calendar and not the phone calendar?
I dont think you can set it as default..not sure. With some app maybe? I just have my Galaxy for 4 days so everything is new
Thanks, compared to me you are very experienced (had mine for 1 day)
I would also be interested in a way to change the default.
Additionally I'd like to have the automatically created birthday events appear in one of my Google calendars, not in the phone calendar. Has anybody an idea on how to do that?
It says "with Google" on the phone, if I'm selling my soul to Google, at least I'd like to do it completely and thoroughly.
I'm syncing with my Yahoo Calendars, my 2 Gmail account Calendars
also contact from those 3 accounts too, and IM from MSN, google, yahoo, tweeter, facebook
this phone is Amazing! at keeping everything in sync
just make sure on the account page your accounts are all with the Green sync circle
Does anyone know of an app that will allow multiple widget instances or a widget view that isnt every calendar I sync with. I am looking for something that will allow me to view my personal calendar on one screen and other calendars I subscribe to in another. Month view is perferred if possible. Thanks in advance for any info.
Android Agenda Widget might be worth looking into. I don't have multiple calendars so I can't test it out but under the settings there is an option that says"Widget calendars independence - Have separate calendars for each widget"
Not sure if month view is possible.
Definitely going to second Android Agenda Widget. Takes a bit of time to setup, but you can customize it quite a bit and get it to look just the way you want. I currently have three of the widgets setup because I use several calendars and it works great. I'm also not sure about the monthly view, I know you can set how far ahead it "looks" and do a few other things to that extent, though I'm not sure if that's exactly what you're looking for. Either way, definitely give it a shot, it's a great app!
Pure Calendar also allows you to select which calendars it displays
I use Android Agenda Widget, but I can't get any of my calendars besides (my email) and U.S. Holidays to show up. When I go to Google Calendar (the site, not the app), I have a Birthdays/Anniversaries calendar, in addition to a few sports calendar. How do I get those to show up as well?
Thx 4 all the input but the list view of all events is not quite what I was looking 4... visual week or month... something like what u might find n a paper planner is closer 2 the overall goal... did try it and I must say Android Agenda Widget was the best of its kind I saw... and 2 linkraceist

Tap that round settings button bottom, center of the widget/tap "calendars"/ and select "choose calendar"... that screen should fix u up

Bub go into the settings of the S Planner:
First check your calendars under the "Calendars" tab it will be the first one in the settings. See if you have your Google calendar checked there, If not then check it. It will show your Google account there but you need to tap it to open the two options first one will be your email (again ) and the second one should be US Holidays.
If the above written things are already there, and you are still not able to sync the calender, then go to the second to the last option in the s planner settings and choose Calendar sync options....you will land into the, accounts and sync settings....there see if a check mark is present on the sync calender option. If not then check it there.
Hope it resolves your issue,
Click thanks if it helped
Hey Samuel,
Thanks for your reply. The solution provided by you didn't fixed my problem. My question was specifically for the synchronization of the Google Calendar's Task list (and not the Events) with the S-Planner's Task list. The Google Calendar's Events are synchronizing with the S-Planner's Calendar Events freely but NOT with the case of TASKS.
Same problem
Hello everyone!
I have the same problem in my Galaxy Note S Planner app with the Task Sync... the events are syncronized but the tasks won't....
any solution?
Thanks, regards!!
you can't sync task with the s-planner.
why? ask samsung

Correct - tasks are not Calendar, they are Tasks which is a different animal.
This for some is a genuine misunderstanding of the difference between Tasks and Calendar and for others is more a bit of wishful thinking on the part of the wring app.
Yep, that's why a lot of folk use Jorte - the task sync actually works and is there nicely displayed with your calendar.
And it has transparent widgets.

You Can!
I have an Office 365 account which I am syncing via activesync. This syncs ALL my tasks into the S-Planner task list ( There is an option when creating a task for the task to be a built in task or an outlook 365 task)

I don't use Office or 365 so can't sync using that.
I use Ubuntu/Linux in my workstation.
The S Planner Task Widget is cool. It spans the whole Screen so you can use it effectively. But I need to be able to access the Tasks from my PC too preferebly in Google Tasks with Google's features of notifications etc. which doesn't seem possible.

This does not solve your problem directly, but try MyPhoneExplorer, which syncs your contacts, messages and tasks, so they are backed up.

As a previous post suggested use Jorte - provided you never need to use search on events or quick add it works very wel, it syncs both events and tasks perfectly. And the customisation options are endless...
If you're determined to use S Planner, then find something else to sync tasks...
It appears that Samsung left out the support to sync Tasks for Google accounts, you can with Exchange accounts like Hotmail but not Google.
An excellent alternative I've found is an App called Tasks by Team Tasks, it looks good, clean interface, works with multiple lists and the widget can be resized to fill the space you want.

How about using Titaniumbackup on a regular basis? You can re-endorse your calendar settings in 5 seconds! It worked for me even when switching from ICS to JB and using the ICS backup files!

I know this doesn't help you right now, and it sure is not the desirable and most comfortable way , but in the worst case, you will always have your calendar running. And it's actually not so hard to backup only your calendar settings on a regular basis .. maybe I should start doing that,too =)
I have an s3, not a Note, but have been searching for a solution to this as well. It has been bugging me that if I use s voice to make a task it does it in the samsung calendar that won't sync to my google tasks. I certainly haven't found a way around it.
But for a while now I've been using calengoo as my default calendar and it does manage my tasks for me. And has some nice widgets, including a scrollable agenda widget with plenty of settings, and can include my urgent or dated tasks in that list. I have it syncing between my galaxy tab (original 7") and my s3 and it seems to do the job. It would be nice if stock apps could do it too, but it seems we're out of luck.

Why not use Gmail for everything? perhaps easier.
I stopped using all crappy softwares phones come with.
Gmail > Outlook is very stable.
You can sync it with EVO Collaborator for Outlook add-in if you like. And get a stable two way sync for Tasks,Calendar and Contacts!
You know that this thread is 2 years old
No. What they mean is Samsung Tasks and Google Tasks do not sync. Since calendar syncs with no problem, there is indeed something wrong when samsung tasks does not sync with google's since they are all integrated into S Planner as one unit.
