UberCalendar: Enhanced calendar patch

[michel_ng]

I just made a hard reboot of my veer and now these months are no more grayed out ... very strange

[michel_ng]

Another question: I just put a holiday event, which was happen some days ago (11.01.2013) and its already shown for the next year in my calendar but not for the current. Is this normal?

No that's not normal. You may want to delete it and recreate it.

Maybe its possible to dye grey events with a little code hack? Would be great because they would be much better visible in the month view. I would prefer the same green color like in the day view

It has been requested before. It is not possible. The grey parts mean there are events in the morning, afternoon and evening. So if you have multiple events in the morning from different calendars, which color do you use? You can select a single calendar to display in the view, then the the squares will be colored -- only 1 calendar is displayed.

Most UC users use the icons to attach category type meaning to the events. Those will display. So if you use colored squares for your icons, you can achieve what you want. Take a look at the first post to see about the icons.

edit moved file to this post:

test patch for undefined calendar entries to try to help WeeGee. Please do not test this unless you have undefined calendar entries that you can not delete. Using this may cause you to lose calendar events.

After using the menu item, grep the logs for calendar. The patch should list out any eventId's and subjects that it tries to delete.

edit: updated to ver 1-39

Thank you for this patch..it seems to work. I could delete most of the undefined events using it, but Lumberjack didn't work (it just showed me an empty log, no matter what I wanted to see, with filter or everything, Retrive or Following...).
Then I found a bunch of undefined events which were missing on my Google calendar (a different one than the cleared undefined events came from) and I stopped cleaning, but set the calender from undefined to the correct calendar, which seemed to work (they appeared online). But now I have found some events that don't sync, no matter what I try, even after reboot and a day waiting..
During sync I get this error repeatedly:

Did you turn off all the google calendars in the accounts app and remove all the undefined events from the calendar app? You have to do it completely, to make sure the database is clean. Once you don't find anymore undefined events, restart the device, then go into the accounts app and turn the calendars back on.

[WeeGee]

No, not yet. I still have unsynced events sitting on my palm, which I must move to the Palm profile account first, so that they are not lost. There are hundreds of such events, and some years to go through, comparing them with the Google online calendar.. and every change on the Pre needs some seconds to enter the event, change the calendar account, wait some seconds for the Pre to refresh the calendar (which is awfully slow)

I think your database is in bad condition. The events you are trying to save are not on the google website? If they are there you can just delete them, they will return when you turn on the calendar again --- if they are inside the window you have set in tweaks for the first sync.

Good luck.

I have an issue with entered events, they are not setting of the notification alarm, any suggestions as to why this may be would be welcome, thanks.

Welcome to the forums,

Q: Do you mean you create an event on the phone/TP, and there is no alarm set by default?
A: Try setting your default alarm setting in the calendar preferences on the phone. There is one for all day events and one for other timed events.

Q: Do you mean you create an event on google's web calendar and there is no alarm set on your phone/TP?
A: You need to set your default preferences in google's web calendar settings with your browser. You want to make sure the alarm for the calendar is "pop up" and that it is at the top of the list of default alarms for that calendar.

Q: Do you mean the alarms are marked in the events and they are not going off?
A: Check that you have "alarms follows groups" turned off Also if you have per calendar alarms on that you have the alarms turned on for that calendar.

Q: Other scenario?
A: Can you give me a little more detail? What type of device is this and what version of webOS? And describe step by step how you get the error to occur.

If you don't know about those preferences, check the preference guide link in my signature.
Thanks,

[frantid]

updated all versions to fix deleting undefined calendar events. Also submitted updates to preware.

If you have undefined events open it in the edit scene, use the menu item to delete undefined events. It will list the subjects of the deleted events in the log.

The highlighted files are not in their original form. This is a touchpad running 3.0.5 correct? Did you have any other calendar patches installed?
