Hi guys,
I modded the Stock Google Calendar (v20130821) so that you can see the appointments with text instead of small bars.
Flash the attachment in your recovery and enjoy!
This works on odexed and deodexed stock ROMs, but although I tested it on my own N5, you may want to backup your system first for your convenience.
UPDATE: I don't own the N5 anymore, so I won't maintain this further.
Here is a How-To to mod the calendar yourself: click me.
If I didn't buy digi calendar, I would be all over this. You are a true scholar sir! This will make a lot of people happy.

It is error when I try install my nexus5.
Guess I'm using ART runtime. (No dalvic)
How to solve this problem?
Thanks! I was missing this. Those default color lines were pretty useless.

That's way how the calendar should display items. Thanks!
Is there any way to change the widget brackground from smoke grey to a haze white? Then of course the font for the dates have to be dark.

What's wrong with the upgraded Google calendar? Sure the widget could be nicer. But i's 1.6 Mb vs 16 Mb. :silly:
:highfive:
OP did it! I am a true calendar junkie, without it i would miss all of my stuff, and now a have a freaking usable calendar?!
This is ingeniousm will trow it on my Nexus as soon as im back from university!
This kicks ass!!
A bit off-topic but this caught my eye, what is that app/listings of all the TV shows for your calendar?
FC on stock odex rom.

Yes it is possible.
But I gave my N5 back to Google, so I won't update this mod anymore, sorry
When a new Play Store update arrives, I will mod again then, because I post only mods for devices I can check myself.

Any more input please. When? Why? Always? One time?
Maybe you can try to re-flash, wipe cache and Dalvik and/or delete app-data from the global settings menu.
The mod itself can't produce any FC's - I haven't changed anything in the program code but only some integers in .xml's and one smali file for the graphics.

I'm sorry to say that I can't help, I have no N5 anymore to test the calendar with ART.
But as the signatures of the mod are the same as the original calendar, there shouldn't be an app specific problem.
How do u install this. Do I have to be rooted?
why did you return N5? are you getting another one? This was an excellent calendar MOD
@wyrman: read the OP, thanks
@THE_KINGDOM: I returned the N5, because I wasn't satisfied at all. There were too many glitches which I don't want on my daily driver. Speaker quality, bad viewing angle on my LCD, notification LED did what it wanted but didn't notify me, phone wasn't always ringing, and so on...
Build quality was great, camera was good too, but for me there were too much odds at all.

Coming from HTC Inspire btw.
Size-Build is awesome imo, perfect screen size, nice and lightweight and does not feel cheap imo.
Yea its superamoled but wtf at the yellowish tint....why did they do this?? My Captivate looked better and this is one of the main selling points for me, is there anything we can do to get it back to the other color temperature? Seriously....
Tried the camera a bit, not impressive at all, neither was the inspire so eh whatever.
Everything is FAST! I love it!
Stock Android!!! Woooh! No Blocking of Apps! Woooh!
Wifi seems a bit slow, it started doing a restore off the bat and downloading all my apps from the inspire and even the background! wow! Really cool feature that I had no Idea about, but some apps installed and then I kept getting a bunch of errors saying "insufficient memory" I guess I gotta do them one by one...
Thats pretty much it, Im satisfied but the screen tint is kinda leaving a bad taste in my mouth, the SuperLCD seemed more sharp and brighter then this and the whites were WHITE and the blacks werent too shabby either, dunno wtf is going on as the Screen on my old captivate was great and I loved it, this is eh...
Really hoping I didnt make the wrong choice here, the Xperia arc I had my eyes on and the only thing it didnt have was a FFC and I can live without it, beyond that I like the looks, bigger screen, lighter weight, on the arc better and sony unlocked the bootloader on their new devices so updates will come regardless, way better camera, I just dont know about this whole screen thing....
i just got mine today, so thought i'd chime in too.
build quality: not cheap imo, the ergonomics dept should pat themselves on the back. feels just right
doesn't feel laggy
sensors problem. compass seems a bit off, and the best gps lock i've had is 10m error after about 60s. i stood outside and waited, no lock. resorted to downloading gps status and downloaded the additional gps data. this seems to be the only way it's locked on. compared to a desire, this is hella slow and crappy for gps.
camera quality, i think for a phone it's good enough. for the ffc, so it's vga, but at what resolution does skype mobile use? what's that? it's not working? oh well. i think vga is fine for video calls. anything else is just additional cost.
about to test with music and haven't put a sim in yet to test the phone.
i bought it for development, so i'm now going to start messing about with it, but the phone feels nice and zippy, but disappointed with the sensors (will be testing outside tomorrow) as i'm looking to do a lot of augmented reality dev.

if you're going to test sound, i highly recommend using netarchy's kernel (unsure if it works on a I9020A).. but basically put Voodoo Sound, it'll be highly worth it without question
thanks, but i'm going to keep this stock.
You can change the bad color by using voodoo control app on the market and finding a kernel that supports it.

no, i don't have a tint at all - i have a 9020. and no tint. i manually upgraded to 2.3.2 - too scared to update to 2.3.3 yet. i don't have a sim in it, so the ota wasn't registering.
in terms of sound quality, it blows away my ipod touch 1st gen, but then again most of my older cheaper mp3 players do so that in itself isn't saying much! the dynamic range sounds a lot better on this than what was on the desire too.
but still haven't taken the stickers on the phone off yet. need a case!

I wish I could do it without a root, I just cant seem to do the damn root, Im stuck on the drivers part....
So today I flashed CM9 Beta 1, and I noticed the screen was different. The colors were fine, but the text was fuzzy and the icons were blurry. I didn't realize that this was because they disabled Samsung's mdnie coloring, which in my opinion, made the text look a lot better. So who hopes for Beta 2 that they re-enable the old colors because it looks awful now! I know this sounds immature, but I've seen so many complaints and I have to agree.
Where is the poll?
Also, please include an option for "indifferent".
My ol' eyes cant tell one from the other...
edit: Ha! Guess I was just to fast, and thanks for the I dont care option!
It looks good too me.. I won't vote yet, I may need to flash back to double check but I am pleased so far..

Got a place I can check that I could tell better than others?
My eyes ain't what they used to be, and I would like to see if I can tell, where it is supposed to be most obvious.
Still, I would rather an option to switch it on/off over stuck with one or the other, if possible.
When it comes to Android, I always tend to go with the "more options" path
God I agree with this. Please change it back. I'm getting more use to it but it does not really look all that better, and has more negatives than positives.

I can live with it. It is certainly not a deal breaker for me, as I can tell the difference from beta0.
It doesn't look any different to me...I guess that means I don't give a crap. More free RAM sounds good to me.
Anyone have some screenies to show us the difference?

I definitely notice its smoother in the settings app and i like that. However i wish the text would still render i bit better and i hope that they re-enable mdnie in beta2, or at least find a way to improve the text while keeping the smoothness in some other areas. Idk. Back to beta0 for me.

The colors on my screen look more natural, but I don't notice any difference in text. I switched the kernel several times. I guess everyone's phone is affected differently.
Maybe it's something more complicated like differently manufactured screens or something (just taking a shot in the dark).
Some areas are better than others. I see it with black text on gray. There is a difference. Small, but you get the colors right you'll see it. Smaller the font the better it gets too.
I vote back or options.
I've been using voodoo color and then I updated to beta 1 and the white color is way off it looks like to me but it could just be not use to using my phone without voodoo

this was most likely removed due to the fact that CM roms use nothing from the OEM. If the is an OEM setting it will never be added to CM roms.

No, this was removed because the devs on "our" end were experimenting with it. They even claimed they were unsure what it did, but that Noobnl said it looked better without it. Read the blog there's more info there. They are also letting people test a temp boot kernel with it re-enabled so they can decide before the next release whether to re-enable it or not. I just with in the meantime that they would release a perm flashable of the alternate kernel isntead of just the temp bootable.

Hi, i think what he meant by 'Gallery Preview' is the Photo Gallery widget. I can use it without any issue in my homescreen. But the one you are saying having an issue is the Gallery app itself which have similar issue like Camera and etc. Try installing other 3rd party gallery apps or just use QuickPic like our friend suggested.
Anyway, stock Gallery should work with the last version ( 2.4 ).

I am attaching a possible HTC M8 screenshot (source: @evleaks), reported here. Let's hear some feedback. What do you like/dislike?
Personally, I like the onscreen navbar vice the capacitive ones on the M7. I do wish HTC would update their lockscreen icons (phone, messaging, etc), they look so outdated. I would like to see HTC provide more icon sets that can be used on the lockscreen.
Update 2/12/14: Numerous screenshots and device pics have been added. If anyone has new pics or info, please post them! Thanks everyone!
I personally prefer the capacitive buttons but I could live with onscreen buttons I guess. I don't really care how bland the UI looks, I'm hoping for some hardware goodness like improved speakers, battery life, camera, quality control, etc etc. If they nail the hardware they could just completely botch the software for all I care, that's what custom roms are for
I prefer on screen keys. You can customize them better, and makes immersive mode so much better too.

It will come with a twin-rear sensor camera. This will give the camera better focus and depth of field and image quality.

Thanks for the pics Santod! Being this close to a possible launch of the M8, I'm becoming more confident that we are indeed seeing photos of the M8 and UI.

I'm not looking to save battery, just eliminate the glare from hideous screens (Call/Dialer/etc.)
Is anyone else having an issue where contacts are showing duplicates just because they are on WhatsApp, viber, allo, etc? I can't seem to find a way to stop it. I've hidden duplicates on the contact app but not been able to on the phone app

I'm not sure if that's specific to Essential... But I've fixed it by making sure a sync just happened... And then wiping data on Contact Storage... And Contacts... Then forcing another sync...
It takes some time for everything to come back... But it fixed it for me...
It still shows wonky in a couple of other apps... But I don't care enough to mess with it

What's that got to do with annoying Bright, ugly Call and phone screens?

Also, why is it such a P.I.T.A to answer the phone by sliding up???
Annoying!

Sliding up in general...
If I don't use the fingerprint scanner... It takes me 3 tries to unlock the screen too

Pretty lame that it's so hard to answer the phone. I mean...IT'S A PHONE!
Also, you can only use the fingerprint scanner if you activate number or pattern security...why not just for other purposes, like answering the phone?

You can with root I think...
On Oreo there a fingerprint api that allows for reading directional swipes and stuff
That's cool. Have to look into it. Waiting for OREO SECOND release. I cannot Beta test on my primary phone!

I too use this as my primary phone...
And truth be told... It's not really a test... It's more a preview...
There are no bug I have found in my day to day use... And on the B2 release... Battery is tame to say the least...
I'm averaging 4.5% per hour... Combined use... On AccuBattery... And it keeps going down...
