I have searched everywhere but can't find anything,
I would love to use the stock calendar app on doc's rom or any other rom for that matter. But i'm not able to find anything that works.
Does anyone know if this is even possible?
I've read that if you use the aosp mail app, the camera fc's.
But nothing about the calendar app.
I would love to know a bit more, I can't imagine it's that difficult.
There is a thread for stock eclair apps and I remember using them once, they seemed to work I recall.
If anyone knows a way I would love to know, I'm getting pretty frustrated with samsungs aproach to the calendar

Any idea how to install aosp calendar?
It's in the market.
You'll have to uninstall the Samsung one first, then reboot.

No. The AOSP calendar is NOT in the Market.
I have the same question: how to get a working AOSP calendar in Froyo???
But in this strange sgs community, everybody seems to love so much the TouchWizz Calendar!
Bllblb. It's ugly, not practical, and you cannot read the events titles directly from the week view.
I succeeded installing the Calendar from a CM6.1 Nexus1 Rom. But not the Calendar sync. So it works, but you cannot choose wich calendar to hide.
So. I'm not responsible for nothing, but you can try what I have done.
Download the rom here http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/files/file/187-update-cm-611-n1-signedzip/
Extract from system/app/calendar.apk
-> Or instead of 1. et 2. you can just download from here http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18608283/Calendar.apk
On your sgs, use Root Explorer (or ADB if you know how). Delete (make backup first) TWcalendar.apk in system/app/ in your device.
Push the calendar.apk from the rom into system/app/ in your device.
Install it.
Reboot.
You're done. As I have said, the app works, but it Force Closes whenever you try to get in menu/more/calendars.
If somebody have an idea to get he whole thing working... It'd be great!

I don't think this is true either, where did you get this info from may I ask?
Thanks Judim but I have also tried that, had the same problem.
I'm using "Touch Calendar Free" at the moment, it's not as good as google's but still beats the living sh** out of samsungs...
Ah well if this thread bumps we'll just have to wait for CM7 to arrive or buy a Nexus S.
The first way is a bit cheaper though
Try also Business Calendar Beta from the Market. It could be a replacement waiting for a CM7.
I see you're also coming from the Hero... Small device but great CM roms
Cheers!
Here is an AOSP calendar app that I'm using on my Vibrant. It does have the fc issue when selecting more calendars, but does not have the dark bar at the top blocking week one of the month. It does have a skewed transparency up there, but its a mere annoyance and won't affect anything. Push to system/app. Oh the icon is ginger-green to match my rom, but thats all that I changed with the apk.
I posted this in the Sprint HTC One forums and got little in reply, let me know whose you guys think
I don't know if this is an issue with 4.3 specifically because I don't recall if this was happening since I installed the update..but my multitasking with this phone has been horrible lately. I mean no matter what app I switch to it begins to reload, even if it's the last one I used or a light application (ex Google Now to Messaging). I already found it frustrating how upon switching apps with this phone it would show you a frozen image for a brief moment before before allowing you to interact with the actual application, but now apps are actually having to reload. I'm using apex pro and it's also redrawing nearly every time I go back to the homescreen, be it from internet, floorboard, messaging etc. Not sure why it's happening but it started like a week ago and my phone has been feeling pretty ****ty because of it. My GS4 w/touchwiz has less multitasking issues than this phone right now, any ideas on what's going on? Stock unrooted 4.3

Isn't there a specific setting that locks the launcher in memory to prevent the redraws? Are you running a custom rom or you're using apex on a stock rom?

There is that setting, but when it's enabled a notification sits in the dropdown that says to remove apex from the permanent memory, you can't swipe it away either. Really stupid, never seen a phone with that notification before, my s2 with 1gb of ram multitasked amazing. Regardless it's all aspects of multitasking not just launcher redraw, if I switch from messages to setting and then back to massages, it'll have to reload regardless of how light of an app it is.
Stock unrooted 4.3. Rebooting gives me a few days without hindrance but eventually the problem resurfaces, I barely have any apps installed and none of them are out of the ordinary.

I'm on stock rooted and I'm getting my Google Voice widget showing at the top of my recent apps screen. What is going on? Anyone seen this before? I've done a couple reboots and it's still there. I can always flash something, but just curious what everyone thought.
Try booting into safe mode. Then open recents, then reboot
Sounds like Google Voice invaded your Google Search somehow.
If you flash a custom ROM, you can hide that widget

I'm pretty sure this is on purpose. One of the focus points of 5.0 was better multitasking and I think that's the to help with it because when you click on a link it takes you out of that page

I flashed liquid smooth and it went back to the Google search widget. I couldn't for the life of me get the Google voice widget out of there. Thanks fellas!
So...took the plunge and got a Nexus 6. Seems like a great phone.
Got it home, grabbed the OTAs, unlocked the bootloader and rooted using CF's root .bat (found in the all in one post).
Now I'm having issues and I can't see where they're coming from.
Started, I think, after I added email accounts to the gmail app. I will be using the phone and it will soft reboot (boot animation, but thankfully I have renamed that awful AT&T boot animation, then lock screen).
Installed the latest TWRP and cleared the cache, following another post's recommendation, but that hasn't helped.
Aside from returning to stock and exchanging the phone (which I very well may do, but I'll go to a busier store to do it) does anyone have any ideas? I'm completely stock, using Nova Prime aside from the recovery and rooting (still encrypted).
Box says this is 2014-12-21 manufacture date, green dot on the box.

Take a nandroid backup in TWRP then do a "factory reset" (just a standard one, not one that does all the partitions) and run it with no apps or extra settings set. See if it still does it.
Wish it wouldn't auto-download those AT&T apps, but I will give that a try. Updating the Play Store apps now. I skipped the backup, mostly because I haven't done enough on the phone to need it (set up Nova Prime and my email, then had the issues and I went to bed).
have you tried raising voltages across the board? by 10-20mV..

I have not done anything with the kernel at all.
Apps that I had installed when issues started (or rather when I noticed them):
Facebook
Facebook Messenger (I'm not sure, but this one may have been the last one installed before the issues started; I don't remember a reboot prior to installing this)
Nova Launcher / Nova Prime
Widget Locker (wanted a separate lockscreen wallpaper, but there may be a better way to do this)
Weather Underground (the last in a series of weather apps)
Tesla Unread Plugin (which I wish worked with things like Handcent or Textra, though it may...I haven't tested)
Root Explorer
That's it.
I saw some people pointing to the stock SMS and or Hangouts apps and disabled both, but to no avail.
So far after the factory reset, everything seems ok. I'm not sure if one of the above mentioned apps is the cause of the issues, though.

The FB app is very buggy , its best to FaceBook within a browser rather then using the app.

That's unfortunate...
Side note, after performing the factory reset within TWRP it seems to be working ok now. Haven't had a reboot (also haven't used it much).
Going to reinstall Nova and see if my good luck continues.
I can live without the Facebook app if I need to (you'd think they'd get their act together, but I'm pretty sure that Facebook on my computer causes a massive memory leak too).
As a note, though, none of the reboots happened within Facebook. They mostly happened within Gmail, actually, though some happened in the Nova Settings too.
I have all those apps you have and never have random reboots.

Well, everything seems ok right now with just Nova. Going to wait a bit before I download other apps, though. Textra or some other type of app where I can customize notification sounds is a must (I prefer to have a different sound when my wife texts me vs random text messages). Not sure on email client, though. I've used K-9 in the past, but the new Gmail may be the one I go with for now.
So far I have reinstalled everything except for Widget Locker and the 2 Facebook apps. So far so good.
I noticed when browsing lockscreen apps that Widget Locker hasn't been updated in almost 2 years...that's unfortunate.
Tried another lock screen app that was nice, and would have worked, but it stretched the wallpaper I wanted to use (picture of one of my kids) to the point where it was pixelated...that alone made me uninstall it, even though it had everything else I wanted...

Have you tried acdisplay?

No, it was Hi Locker that I used.
AcDisplay is on my list to try, though. It keeps coming up on the lists of the top lockscreen apps.
Edit: There doesn't seem to be a way to use a separate image for the lockscreen...Black background or homescreen wallpaper is all I could find. If it's there, I'd love to know where.
ive already disabled battery authorization and autoclosing for any app but also after nougat update this phone keep closing apps that should stay in background and never close with other phones, what can i do to disable auto closing of apps? theres any way or with this phones its impossible?
also the manufacturer smart features like answer when you put the phone close to ear or silent ringtone when you put te phone upsidedown are auto close and you need to restart the phone or disable re enable them from settings
My P9 does that too. I'd be happy if it'd let me select apps to leave alone, like Orbot, I2P, Servers Ultimate, Limbo x86 emulator etc.
Apart from that, it's a great phone (bought it after my Galaxy S5 Amoled screen crapped out when cold, worked fine warmed up again! Looks like Huawei are going to be offering LCD screens on most of their phones.
Just found it after first attempt at posting reply, it's in: Phone Manager then Protected Apps, you can select them individually, or all together.
On an unrelated point, I read that that the backup utility even backs up app data, also their phone clone app migrates apps to a Huawei phone, even app data if the old one was a Huawei too. Have you tried any of that, does it work?
Mine too, how come nobody else noticed that. Would like to have a fix for that. 3Gb RAM should be more then enough, cmon..
The most annoying is that it closes music apps as soon as you shut the display but if you promptly switch it back on and put music playing and shut again it will stay.
Really weird. And It doesn't help if you put the app to stay in settings and put a lock on an app in running app drawer, it closes it anyways.
I don't have such problem in mine, everything works fine
I had the same problem and I have found out that custom launcher is causing app reload. I was using nova launcher and tried few others, and now I am back to Huawei stock launcher and it's good.
I had the problem that it is not closing the apps but whenever i come back to some app it starts's reloading the content from start.
