Calendar widget issue with 2.1 Release Candidate/Leak2/OTA Leak - Droid Eris General

Hi everybody.
I upgraded from Leak1 to Leak2 last night. I really find it to be better. Thanks to everyone for there efforts. I couldn't find this issue anywhere so if I missed it, my humble apologies.
I'm using the smallest of the three HTC calendar widgets.
I'd post a link but I'm too new it seems. hrmpf
The widget seems to update to the next event when it crosses the end time rather than the start time.
Example:
Event 1: 3:00pm - 4:45pm
Event 2: 3:30pm - 6:00pm
The widget will display Event 1 until 4:46pm before moving to Event 2 when it should move to Event 2 at 3:01pm.
Any insight is appreciated.
Thank you
-
Jason

Thanks Biso007 but its not FunnySnake TodayPhone Pro because I have/use that one, unless its a beta!
CALL COUNTER
Hi everybody
the call counter you saw on my screenshots, it is my project under developing now. Soon, I will give more information.
Actually I testes a few different versions to see:
last call generally (in/out/miss),
total call register
only missed
list number or name, and/or time or date
I decide to list the time if the call was today, and the time and date if the call was yesterday or another day than today.
Please email me any suggestions: [email protected]
Thanks for the reply JGUI, your program looks great!
If you're in need of a beta tester feel free to drop me a line. 8)

Dates of Old Events: Problems

Hi,
I bought the Hero (the HTC Hero ) for my wife a couple of months ago and she reported a problem recently.
She has several relatives on her contact list (grandmother etc.), who were born before the year of 1945.
So, when entering a birthday for such a contact the dates which appear in contact details after pressing ok, are displayed incorrectly.
E.g. a birthday falls on 10.01.1929. You enter this date, press ok and see that the date which is displayed is one day earlier, 09.01.1929 (or one day later? I don't remember exactly).
You go to re-enter the date again, thinking that you just mistyped it, - no, it is displayed ok inside the settings (10.01.1929).
This problem is applicable for all dates earlier than 01 January 1945, if I remember correctly.
Anyone?
Thanks in advance.
Guys!
Can anyone at least try to set a birthday for a contact with the date in the said interval (earlier than 01.01.1945)?
I just need to confirm that this is a general OS bug and I am not alone.
Thanks.
I have the same problem. I didnt find any solution for that.

copy/paste from pocketnow..:
Twitter has long announced that they'd switch to the new authentication method called OAuth which would be more secure. The problem with the old method was that applications had to store your user name and password in order to access Twitter so the new OAuth method will overcome this possible security flaw.
But together with this come the problems related to software that is not kept up to date to reflect and implement the new methods which are used as default now by Twitter. Unfortunately, HTC's Twitter client, Peep, is one of those apps that stopped working and imagine my surprise this morning when I wanted to check the tweets while drinking coffee and was presented with the screen attached. Hope HTC will release their updated version of the app as soon as possible since we know they don't want to lose any users in their Peep pool.
And guess what, moving from the HD2 to my Desire (in my desperate and naive attempt to read some news), I was surprised to find out that Peep for Android is facing the same problems, and it became clear to me that HTC has to make a move, quick!
Strange though that I managed to tweet from Peep some two hours ago!... - probably my last tweet from Peep for a while, hope it'll be short.
That's explains everything
This sucks!!!!!!!!!!
this sucks man! I twittered HTC and posted a notice on their Facebook wall, hope that they come with a fix ASAP!!!!!! Unbelievable that they had months notice to fix this problem. We also still waiting on a ROM update which they promised us since April! Its now September and still no official ROM update!
Its kind of ridiculous that HTC didn't change Peep to the OAuth method before rolling out FroYo. Now we have to wait for yet another update to fix our twitter clients.
Anyway, any alternative Twitter apps for Leo/WM6.5 which do still work? Preferably one with some cool extra functions
Yeah, I noticed this too.. Oddly enough it still works for posting new tweets.
I hope they will fix this with a simple/quick CAB update (or exe, like with the camera). Saves the hassle of backing up again.
But thanks to the XDA community, it will probably be cabbed anyways.. <3
Maybe we will need to wait to twitter again until they release windows mobile 7

I know twikini posted a while back (I can't post links but a search of "twikini stops updates" will get you there) that they would not update their app to support OAuth so that on 8/31 is would stop working. Seems as if Peep does not support OAuth either. Not sure us HD2 owners will be getting an update given the state of WM 6.5 and WM7 around the corner.
For WinMO, I use Panoramic MoTweets they updated to support OAuth in version 1.8.4

Was posted on an other thread
Butt I don't like the way motweets's works and his layout so this could be an option for people who want to try
As much as I love the HD2, I can't stand HTC's "support", more like lack of, lmao! They seem to make a phone & drop it like an ex girlfriend with a scat fetish, then move on to the next one!
Thank god for xda & you talented individuals or this phone would be near useless by now.
I love the Peep feature, it's my preffered way of tweeting & reading tweets. On Desire I love tweetcaster & tweetdeck, two awesome apps, which naturally means they won't be available for Windows......grrrrr!
I'm sure if enough people complain to HTC regarding it, they will address it. Expecially since T-Mobile is still selling the HD2.
I do admit it's discouraging though that it's not already fixed, considering the time given to address it
I dont use Peep but do use both MoTweets and PockeTwit,
only MoTweets is working now.
love u guys
i was wondering why peep wasn't workin i know if i got a problem to always come to xda thanks
Those of you on WinMo who already have Kinoma Play for its media features can use its Twitter app as well. If you don't have Kinoma yet, you're missing out. It's well worth the purchase.
I'm hoping Peep gets fixed as well, but at least I've got a stand-by.
Any clever coders out there working on an unofficial patch?
Wow good thing I read this post cause I almost resorted to a hard reset!
Official reply from HTC
I got this official reply from HTC today:
Hi, We are currently investigating an issue with our Peep client that has stopped working and hope to have a solution soon. Please monitor the support pages for updates, or if you prefer we can record your details and contact you again once a solution is available, You can use the official twitter app for the time being. This is unaffected, HTC are currently working on the authorisation required for peep to work on our handsets, an update should be available soon. Thank you for contacting HTC Europe Best Regards Luke HTC Europe.
Seems like it's going to take them a while to resolve this. We're already waiting since April on a new ROM update so I doubt if an official update will be deployed since Windows 7 will be debuting in December.
In the mean time, download moTweets, it works excellent!!!!!!! Does anybody know how to replace the twitter tab in Sense with moTweets? That would be excellent, but I don't know how.
If anyone knows, please post how to.
THANKS!
I recieved the email below of Twitter. as far I see they will deliver updates to change the Oauth login
Over the coming weeks, we will be making two important updates that will impact how you interact with Twitter applications. We are sending this notice to all Twitter users to make sure you are aware of these changes.
What are applications?
There are over 250,000 applications built using the Twitter API. To use most applications, you first authorize the application to access your Twitter account, after which you can use it to read and post Tweets, discover new users and more. Applications come in many varieties, including desktop applications like TweetDeck, Seesmic, or EchoFon, websites such as TweetMeme, fflick, or Topsy, or mobile applications such as Twitter for iPhone, Twitter for Blackberry, or Foursquare.
Update 1: New authorization rules for applications
Starting August 31, all applications will be required to use “OAuth” to access your Twitter account.
What's OAuth?
- OAuth is a technology that enables applications to access Twitter on your behalf with your approval without asking you directly for your password.
- Desktop and mobile applications may still ask for your password once, but after that request, they are required to use OAuth in order to access your timeline or allow you to tweet.
What does this mean for me?
- Applications are no longer allowed to store your password.
- If you change your password, the applications will continue to work.
- Some applications you have been using may require you to reauthorize them or may stop functioning at the time of this change.
All applications you have authorized will be listed at http://twitter.com/settings/connections.
- You can revoke access to any application at any time from the list.
Update 2: t.co URL wrapping
In the coming weeks, we will be expanding the roll-out of our link wrapping service t.co, which wraps links in Tweets with a new, simplified link. Wrapped links are displayed in a way that is easier to read, with the actual domain and part of the URL showing, so that you know what you are clicking on. When you click on a wrapped link, your request will pass through the Twitter service to check if the destination site is known to contain malware, and we then will forward you on to the destination URL. All of that should happen in an instant.
You will start seeing these links on certain accounts that have opted-in to the service; we expect to roll this out to all users by the end of the year. When this happens, all links shared on Twitter.com or third-party apps will be wrapped with a t.co URL.
What does this mean for me?
- A really long link such as http://www.amazon.com/Delivering-Happiness-Profits-Passion-Purpose/dp/0446563048 might be wrapped as http://t.co/DRo0trj for display on SMS, but it could be displayed to web or application users as amazon.com/Delivering- or as the whole URL or page title.
- You will start seeing links in a way that removes the obscurity of shortened links and lets you know where each link will take you.
- When you click on these links from Twitter.com or a Twitter application, Twitter will log that click. We hope to use this data to provide better and more relevant content to you over time.
Thanks for reading this important update. Come and check what's new at http://twitter.com.
Thanks,
The Twitter Team

[GUIDE] Xperia Facebook Calendar Event Timezone Fix

*FOR ROOTED PHONES ONLY*
Hi,
maybe some of you have experienced problems with incorrect time displayed in your synced calendar.(7hours for me)- Facebook Inside Xperia
I managed to decompile the code of FBCalendarSync.apk and fixed it.
If somebody is interested here is fix for central Europe (Berlin/Paris/Prague/Budapest/Bratislava)
Just replace FBCalendarSync.apk file in your /system/app folder
If you find it useful hit the thanks button. I can also change the fix for other timezone if somebody is interrested.
I have same problem too and my solution is now via 3rd party app...but your solution is more clean and better....
Your app is from ICS or GB ?

That's why I had to do it, I didn't like the 3rd party app in my phone when I have this nice stock one.
This app is from ICS but I'm pretty sure this fix will work for GB too.
Here is how I did it. If you have some problems let me know.
I try it and works fine. All my FB events have correct time. Great
I have question about Daylight saving time.... when DST ended, time will be wrong 1 hour or not ?
[NON ENGLISH]
Po slovensky to zkoušet psát nebudu, ale česky snad nebude problém Jde mi o to, jestli při přechodu na zimní čas to bude funkční, nebo ne... Obecně je to občas docela pakárna, dobře zesynchronizovat nejen události s Google kalendářem například.

Well, that is good question. But since I did it yesterday, I don't know yet if that would change something. We have to wait for Daylight saving time to end and see what happens
I'm in Eastern Standard Time (GMT -5:00). Would I change the value to "const/4 v4, -0x4" then? Thanks.
EDIT:
One more thing. Does this also fix birthdays appearing a day early? That has annoyed me greatly for a while and I keep wishing people a day early. (Although it could have been worse and I could get notices a day late.)
Thanks again!

Well, it seems your timezone GMT-5 corresponds to to one in the app by default. If it is not correct try to adjust the constant to meet your needs.
For me it fixed all the events including birthdays.
You can give it a try, but make sure you back up the original app first.

I ended up deciding on another course of action: Export my Facebook Birthdays and Upcoming Events calendars and import them into my Google Calendar directly.
This ends up being more beneficial for a few reasons.
1. All events have the correct times and dates.
2. I can see all my calendar events in 1 place as opposed to having some in GC and some in FB.
3. I can access my GC from anywhere without the need of a special app.
4. I wasn't really using the Gallery Sync and the regular FB app has Contact Sync. So I can pretty much stop using Facebook Inside Xperia altogether, which is one less app consuming bandwidth and battery.
The only problem is that any events that are not Public (so Friends or Invite Only), do not show up by default in GC. They have Private tags on them. So I'm running my calendar through another server that converts all of the Private tags into Public and then feed that URL to GC. It's not ideal, but it works pretty well.
Eventually I may attempt to fix the Facebook Inside Xperia app and I do appreciate the hard work that you put in to figure this out. Until then, I think that my current solution will do the trick.
Thanks again!
So what are the settings for EST?
Does this fix the bug wherein the calendar birthdays are empty?
Sent from my ST15i using xda app-developers app
I don't use this solution anymore because I have CyanogenMod now. Sticking to google calendar as MechaBouncer explained and adding facebook events there seems to be good. Never experienced timezone problems. You can also add friend's birthdays separately
Google Calendar and FB Private Events

Yes, I also use Google calendar synced with my Facebook, but somehow Xperia Facebook integration seems to catch private events that Google Calendar does not ;/
Seems that Sony couldn't care less as ICS is full of bugs from them and no update so far!
Tried, but only the event times were fixed not the birthdays

I've tried this solution.... and it partially worked (thanks for the partial fix).
The event times are now not 7 hours ahead, but the birthdays still appear a day early. Is there anyway to fix that also?

[Q] APP Recommendation for Planning???

Hey there...
Im a supervisor and every three months (no more, no less) I need to check the status of some wires on different locations, and attach a picture of it.
Do you know about an app that notifies me every 3 months wich location I need to check on next, and it would be nice that my partners can see the info as well in their phones... and attach pictures to it.
Thanks in advance

I think Google Agenda will do the job.
You just add an event every 3 month.
You have these options when creating the event:
Add location
Add guests
Add attachment
The only requirement is to have a Google account , you and your partners
