S planner and calendar syncing , feature or bug ?! - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General

Using the s planner app,I have realized its got a bunch of useful and intersting features integrated with the s memo app, like linking handwritten memos and transcribing them into events or tasks.The quick add feature within the s planner is a very good addition too.
However,its still missing some basic stuff and features, which is quite irritating and annoying.
One of those features is the ability to add those quick events into the Google calendar by default !!!
No matter what I do, it adds that event into "my calendar" .. which is for some whatever reason, it cannot be synced with Google calendar !! So its only stored locally.
Even if I uncheck "my calendar" from the settings , it still adds the event to it but it only won't be visible unless u check the box again.
Removing Samsung account didn't help neither.
Is there anyway around this? Or an option to force the app to use Google calendar only?
could be a bug , or thats how samsung intented the way this app be used ?
Such basic features as calendar syncing with Google has been around since ages, im quite disappointed as this is my first samsung device. Samsung, by Not making the app behaving like normal calendar apps , will only make it useless and the whole point of this device (organizer,note,s pen) would be diminished
Edit:all the above applies to Tasks too.
any kind of help is highly appreciated.
Cheers

I already raised this frustrating issue in another thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1361732
I think the only hope is for a developer to have a stab at adding this functionality

I just got my Note today, did the 2.3.6 update, added an event in My Calendar, then it says "cannot sync with Google Calendar"
That is weird, and troublesome, for sure.

It's actually written in the user manual that it DOES NOT SYNC with google calendar. Nice "feature".

meh , why on earth they would do so !

Mine syncs perfectly. I looked in settings under calendar. I have "my calendar" and "my task" unchecked. Then I have a space with my name and a down arrow. I push the down arrow and it open a calendar with my gmail address. That is checked. Syncs perfectly.

I think the default for task/calendar is the local store, but you can choose another calendar. The option is covered by the keyboard but if you scroll down you can find it.

The problem is not that it won't sync with google calendars - it does. The annoying issue is that when you make a new calendar entry it defaults to 'My Calendar' rather than the google one. You are given the option to choose the google calendar but it is such a pain having to do that for every entry when with all other calendars you can choose your default calendar.

If you don't need the 'My Calendar' just tick it off in the settings. Then it defaults to the google calendar. Works this way since sgs 1 I think at least for me. I never have to choose the calendar when entering a new appointment with splanner in my google calender.

Agreed.
Either idiocy or arrogance on Smasung's part.

Do you need both calendars? If not you are talking of a non existing problem if I got you right (see my post above).

Hmm. this DOESN'T work for me. I have My Calender unchecked in the Calendars option, but it STILL defaults to my Calendar. very annoying. In addition, S-Planner is not syncing any of my events to my Exchange server. It pulls them down fine (if created elsewhere), but then doesn't update the server correctly. Grrr.

unticking the "my calendar" doesnt solve those issues , if u try to add an event via the "quick event" tab , or even from the s memo (which is supposed to be a great feature for GNote) , then it will default to "my calendar" even if it is unticked , it will be added ! but hidden!! since that checkbox is made for "display" not "enable/disable calendar" .
that's the way it is for me,so the quick event and s memo/planner events linking and organizers are nothing but useless ! (which is supposed to be a feature for this phone)

I have to admit I don't know what the 'Quick event' tab is. I just use the + button within the s planner (if I use it at all as I prefer other applications to enter my appointments).
Also when I create an appointment via s memo it defaults to my google calendar.
Have you checked your sync settings of the google calendar (there is an extra sync checkbox for the calendar)?
To be more precise there is a checkbox for calender sync as part of your google account reachable via calendar or general account settings.

Very interesting. The + button does default to google calendar if I have My Calendar unticked. But quick entry by tap and hold still defaults to My calendar, which is stupid and annoying.

The settings you refer to are purely "view settings". IE what calendar you see when looking at s planner, nothing at all to do with sync.
The point here is There is NO SETTING to uncheck the calendars you do not wish to select from therefore you need to select one every time you add any event which is a massive PITA...
Mine happens to default at "reminders calendar" which is a twat because I myself use icloud calendar (caldav).
Top and bottom of it is the s planner is shi t e.

Just had this email back from week calendar Dev: -
"Hi Peter, I have good new for you! We have a team working on a special Android version"
Cant wait!

Agenda & Agenda widget + birthdays
lol , this s planner thingy is either buggy or its got some kind weird , ridiculous and unproductive features !!!
i just stumbled upon another issue there , when i synced facebook contacts using friendcaster app , their birthdays were showing on the calendar (imagine the mess !) so i wanted to disable them.
since there is an option is s planner settings to untick the box for "show contacts birthdays" then its supposed to work right ? well it did somehow , the birthdays r no longer there on calendar monthly view , but on the agenda , they r still there !!! even on the agenda widget (which im using)
so to wrap this up ,, contacts birthdays will show up (and clutter) yr agenda and the agenda widget , no matter what u do (even if u untick birthdays display in the settings)..
please correct me if i am wrong but i dont think this is the way its suppose to work (at least it wasnt like that on my HTC Desire HD) .
Cheers.

If you are in the 1 day, 3 days or week view, you can click on the timeline and 'Quick event' tab opens up which defaults to 'My Calendar' even though it is disabled. There is however button 'Edit event details' on the Quick Event window where calendar of choice is preselected. Thank God!!

Question about the calendar

Hi guys!
I just bought my SG and I have it setup with my exchange server at work.
I noticed when first used the calendar I had to setup a google account to use it? Why i gods name would I want a google calendar when I have exchange?
I also noticed when I create a new appointment on the phone I always have to choose which calendar I want to use.
The "my calendar" is always by default. Is there a way to change default calendar to my corporate calendar?
Or even better, delete or disable my calendar and google calendar and only use my corporate account?
Thanx in advance
I've got the same problem, however I am using Google Calendar with 2 calendars. "My Calendar" is always the default, there doesn't seem to be a way to delete it.
Anyone have any ideas?
bump, bump.....
Anyone any idea about how to change the default calendar ?
The "My Calendar" is the phones calendar, so u will not be able to delete it and I cant see a way how to change the default calendar. Cause when u make an appointment in the phone, firstly it needs to put it to the phones calendar and then sync with other calendars.
Just set a sync with exchange calendar and it will send the appointments from My calendar to your exchange calendar.

Hi Mikulec, nice to see you here in the galaxy fora
Thanks for the explanation. But... I use google calendar and I want all my local appointments sync with my google account. Unfortunately when I enter a appointment in the local "my calendar" it doesn't sync with google. I have save the appointment explicitely to the "google calendar". (which is a hassle)

Nice to see u here too.
Looks like u are right. The sync only works when u make appointment in google calendar via web, it then sync with google calendar on your mobile, but its not happing the other way (from mobile to web).
So u have to save the appointment to google calendar and not to my calendar. Which is as u said hassle but it is kind of obvious. Because when u make an appointment in mobile and save it to my calendar and then it will sync with google calendar, u will have double appointments, u will have to disable the showing of my calendar in the settings.
So that means we will have to live with this "functionality".

But, do you save each calendar entry made on your sammy to your google sync then?
i sync my outlook to google calendar, this way i have both of my devices in sync
Android + PC + Windows Mobile
I've no secrets to keep, so i don't mind having my stuff on the clouds.
but anyone being paranoid about having stuff on the google servers, can always use their own home/office server for that kind of stuff.

from the calendar program, click the menu button, then select settings, then Calendars. from here you should be able to select and deselect calendars.
try this. does this make whichever calendar is remaining the default one for new entries?

Sadly not, I only have my google calendar selected, the my calendar is unchecked, yet when I create a new entry the my calendar is still the default calendar, annoying to say the least.
Calendar sync
I've been able to get the exchange sync working except for one thing - the calendar appointments are a half hour early? The time zone/time is correct on the phone, and the appointment times appear OK on an iPhone. Any ideas? Other than that it was a dream to get the exchange account set up (gotta love staff that buy unsupported corporate phones then want support)!

Did you get the google calendar working from mobile to web ? If so, what's the resolution ?
I've been banging my head against the exchange-SGS for about 72hrs now.
Coming from an WM sony X1 I was gutted to find no 'perfect' exchange on SGS. I now have my exchange a/c, 1x pop3 a/c and a hotmail a/c just about sorted now. I've found that the stock SGS calendar can be a bit iffy on calendar appointments so I removed the account, then re-installed it but with out the calendar being sync'd. I've un sync'd the calendar from the 'must have' google a/c. I'm now running touchdown just to bring in the calendar from my exchange a/c. K9 mail looks after my other pop3 & hotmail a/c.
Although nice and big the SGS calendar is i've found pure calendar widgets best for my home page at present. Its a shame that I've had to cough up dosh just to do what a WM phone does best.

Gmail Calender after sync entry lost

Hy,
i have a Galaxy S since last Thursday and now i noticed that when i put a new entry into the calender from the Google Calender Website, after a while the entry disappears on the Phone and on the Website from Google. But not directly after the sync. Because i can see it on the Device after the input on the Site. Just a few hours later it´s gone
Tried it 4 times today and always after some hours the new entrys where gone.
When i put anything in "My Calender" on the Phone it doesn´t disappear.
Any one else with this strange behavior?
No i try to deactivate "My Calender" and use just the Google Calender to see what will happen.
Edit:
Well now it noticed that the Location in my Phone was not set correctly and the new entrys in the Google Calender of the Website differed + 1 hour from the entry in the phone. I´ve set it now to the right location and will see if this maybe was the problem. But shouldn´t it no matter?
I have some recurring events in google calendar (when im supposed to be at work)
On vacations and such i delete some of these events. On the website it works as its supposed to. on my SGS it seems to ignore those i deleted. They keep appearing on every sync on my phone. The website is not affected, only calendar on the phone.
I want my Nexus One back. Everything just worked on that one, no stupid bugs.
After i corrected the location setting in the Phone yesterday and deactivated the "my calender" it seems to work as well. Didn´t delet my entries anymore.
Now i´ve activated "my calender" again to see if this caused the problem or the wrong location setting.

Maybe your entries are in "my calender". The Galaxy S has 2 calenders. One only for the phone, that can be synced with outlook for example. The other ons is the Google Calender that syncs with the Google Server.
The Problem now is that every entry you type in the calender on the phone gets by default into "my calender" IF you do not change the setting of the entry to you Google Calender and will not show up in the Website. Hope it gets an update to set the default calender.
Maybe it helped you.

Installing the stock android calendar solves the issue. Appointments made in the stock calendar are saved by default in the google calendar.

Now that i´ve activated "my calender" the entry from 30 minutes back is gone again, but the ones from yesterday are still there. So i have to deactivate this one.
I have seen that i have a programm (Google Calender Sync) on my pc that syncs the calender from google with my outlook. Could this cause the problem? i try everything now to get a solution for this.

"My Calendar" won't sync with gmail calendar

Is there a way to get "My Calendar" to sync with my cloud gmail calendar? Selecting my gmail calendar every time I make an entry is a pain and I'd prefer to delete the default "My Calendar" all together. Has anyone found a solution? In googling this it seems a lot of people are having this problem.
Second this. Any way to change default calendar. I found this out the hardway that the default wasn't my gmail calendar. You have to switch it on the phone.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I don't know if you're rooted, but if u are, just download the nexus one calendar and it eliminate "my calendar" leaving only your gmail calendars. It can be found in the sticky thread in the general section.

The best no-root solution I know of is the web based google calendar for touch-based devices Just go to calendar.google.com from your vibrant, make a bookmark and place the shortcut to the bookmark on your desktop.
As for quickly adding events, I use Calendar Quick Add, which allows easy text-based entry and allows you to choose the default calendar (spam blocker, remove the spaces):

Not only that, but it supports HTML5 localstorage, so the calendar continues to work if you have no data connection and syncs your changes when one becomes available (the page must be open and displayed for the sync to happen).
When you create a new event, you have to manually select google calendar every single time instead of the default "my calendar". The default one is only local and it doesn't sync with google or outlook.
I hope Samsung will fix this.

This is true of the default calendar app that comes with the phone, but this is NOT true of the web-based calendar (that also supports offline sync) nor is it true of the "calendar quick add" app available in the market. Those two combined are a nice workaround (for me at least).
Work Around
This solution can be used for both root AND non-root devices:
Use a 3rd party cal (i prefer Jorte). Within the application, you can set the default as whichever calendar you prefer (either master gmail calendar or sub-calendar). Hope this helps!

Google calander driving me nuts

I know at least one other person has experienced this as I found this
When I add an appointment in the calendar, I always get this message:
"New event
Local calendar does not sync with Google calendar.
If you want to sync with Google, please add Google account"
Then a checkbox for "Go to account and sync"
and another: "Never show again"
Now, I have a Google account so not sure what I need to add.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I also know what the problem seems to be. It appears I have a local "My calendar" and a Googlemail one. I know this as I have a drop down option in each new appointment from which I can choose. I cannot however find a way to make the Googlemail one the default or delete the "My calendar" one.
This means if I forget to choose I do not sync with my Googlemail account nor my home PC. Anyone got any ideas ?
Screeny attached. (Personal info edited out)

That is the settings page. You can effectively select which calendar/s you want to display but you cannot disable them they are still running but the appointment in that calendar are not shown when you open the calendar app. and even if the "My calendar" is de-selected when you try to create a new appointment it still defaults to "my Calendar". It cannot be removed or disabled and you cannot make "Googlemail" the default.
Use a rom with all that samsung rubbish removed! Simples!
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
I'm not a fan of the default calendar input etc, so I use Calengoo and in that I can select which calendar it defaults to and displays, but it costs a few dollars. Maybe try something like Jorte. I just preferred the way they worked over the stock calendar.
I had this problem but with some ROM update it went away. What ROM version are you using?
Mine always and with any ron defaults to Google.
Once selected it stays default
You can try to erase all settings and set it up again
It doesn't do that on my version (2.3.4 JVP), the default calendar I select in the settings is the one it uses.
Maybe try clearing the data for the calendar by going to
settings->Applications->Manage Applications->tab All
And selecting Calendar storage and doing a clear data.
Maybe that will clear the problem (but you will have to reconfigure
your calendar, but if everything is synced to google it should be ok)

Again thanks. I have done that as well. It only started after the 2.3.3 update (official) I can't understand why there is a "My Calendar" as well as the Googlemail one, just do not see the point.
Just to clarify how it works for me, I have all of the calendars enabled in the settings (including the phone only "My Calendar". That just indicates that they should be displayed on the calendar.
When I add a new event (tap to create) one of the entry fields is the calendar I want to create the event in. Once I set that (and actually create an event, if you cancel it doesn't stick) it automatically defaults to that calendar for subsequent events that I create.
That is how to set the default calendar being used.

Calendar synching only one way

Hi,
Since I've upgraded to Gingerbread my calendar seems to be synching only one way:
- When I create an event online on google's calendar using my laptop they do show up on the cellphone.
- When I create an event on the cellphone it doesn't show up on google's calendar on my laptop.
Any thoughts?
Have you checked the settings in Calendar->Settings->Manage Calendars?

+1. Also make sure sync for the entire phone is enabled. It was disabled once when I rebooted my phone, no idea why. I just added an event from my phone and it showed up on the computer instantly. Are you adding events to your calendar or a shared calendar?
It's strange. When I go to Calendar->Settings->Manage Calendars I get
- Phone Calendar
not synced, visible . There is an eye icon that is on but the sync icon is off. It allows me to set the visibility to on or off but not the sync.
- Gmail calendar
synced, visible . There is an eye icon that is on and the sync icon is on too. It allows me to select the if the sync and visibility should be on or off.
I had this syncing problem as was described in this thread. The solution turned out to be to click that button and make the "Phone Calendar" NOT visible and NOT synced. Then the only calendar left was my real google calendar and now all the events I create on my phone are instantly synced correctly up and down to my google calendar web page on my desktop pc.
Hope this helps you out.

Then the only calendar left was my real google calendar and now all the events I create on my phone are instantly synced correctly up and down to my google calendar web page on my desktop pc.
Hope this helps you out.

was there any other possible solution or method anyone can think of in this situation, ive moved from stock GB to Miui Alpha 3 to a more stock ICS themed ROM to Miui Alpha 4 and somewhere in that last jump i lost calendar sync. Noone else seems to have this issue on the Miui thread and there is no option to select a 'phone' calendar or a 'google' calendar in Miui, its just the 'google' one. Thanks in advance
