Hey all. This might seem like a silly question, but its really irking me. Recently I installed the update to Smooth Calendar. Upon installing the update, it started listing the times in a 24-hour format instead of the 12-hour format I'd prefer. Naturally, I tried uninstalling the update, but it retained this odd setting. There doesn't seem to be any way to change this in the app's config menu either.
Can anyone help me figure out how to bring the widget back to the 12-hour style time listings? Just for some info: I'm using an Epic 4g with a mostly stock rom.
Thanks!
there should be a setting for "use am/pm"

Thanks. Not sure how I didn't see that before.
Hi everybody, I'm using Smooth Calendar too on an San Francisco @ 2.3.3.
Got an issue:
-> In my google calendar I have an event starting at 19h.
-> After updating my android calendar the event is stored in the calendar at 19h.
-> But, the problem is here, in the smooth calendar widget it apears at 18h.
How can I solve that?
greats
Smooth Calander off by 1 hour
I have the same problem. Has anybody found a solution?

I think the settings have changed recently. There used to a button to change from 24hr to 12hr but it seems to be missing. It has a premium version now, but I can't find anywhere that says what's in the update.
Sent an email to the developer. He has a Facebook page, but the last post was from March
---------- Post added at 09:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:16 AM ----------
I figured it out! It's hiding under the Portrait and Landscape mode settings. The Dev emailed me back after I asked him why it is hiding like that. He said he's going to change it!

Just got my Photon yesterday afternoon. Woot!
Having a couple issues with Handcent and Go SMS (trying them both out).
Handcent: Background images, in both the list and conversations, is very distorted.
Go SMS: Background image is SLIGHTLTY blurring (could just be me though) but main issue is contact pictures won't show, in list or conversation. They show fine in Handcent.
Any of you having similar issues. I haven't tried a reinstall of each. I kinda thought it was just an app thing and the dev's haven't updated them for the photon yet.
Thanks.
are you using facebook for your pictures? If so if im not mistaken facebook does not allow other apps to use the pictures. use syncmypix to sync the facebook pics to your gmail account and that should take care of it.

Thanks for mentioning that app. Exactly what I've been looking for.
I am using Facebook but my contact pics appear fine. They show up in my Contacts app, GMail and Handcent just not in Go SMS.
Handcent: Background images, in both the list and conversations, is very distorted.
Try going to Handcent settings -> Notification settings -> Popup settings -> scroll down to "blur background" and check or uncheck as appropriate.
Seriously?
kimmied, you are an idiot. The problem is BACKGROUND and CONVERSATION list images. How is changing the POPUP settings going to fix the problem?
people astonish me.

As the OP said. I don't know if this is a specific problem to the Motorola Photon, or not. I just got mine a couple weeks ago. But I am having the same problem. For right now, I've just been having to use a theme, and the backgrounds for those are fine. But when I try to set my own picture as the conversation list background, they are blurry and distorted. I've tried several different pictures, all HD. For me it's JUST the conversation list background. The background on the chat is fine. I have been trying to be patient and wait for a Handcent update and one was released a few days ago, but still no fix =[

hey galaxy_s.. what astonishes me is how people pounce on someone else's mistake and try to use it to somehow prove how intelligent they are.. why didn't you offer up a solution? i don't see the point of taking the time to post when you aren't going to add anything to the discussion.. that thanks meter of yours will probably say 0 until you learn to quit acting like a child..
as far as the topic goes, I have learned over time that android handles images very inconsistently.. try using quickpic or something when you crop the picture you are using for the background.. i could be way off with that, but i know that i've had success with wallpapers by using different apps (wallpaper set & save, etc.) for cropping..
for contact pictures, do this (I apologize if this was listed or you already know it):
1. open GoSMS
2. on conversation list page hit menu
3. go to settings
4. click advanced tab
5. click appearance settings
6. click conv. list customization
7. click display contact pictures?
8. click yes
9. back out and save your customization
NOTE: it should start using it automatically but if it doesn't choose it from the user defined settings list found under the 'conv. list customization' link
if i misread what you're saying and you cant see contact pictures but you see the placeholders then the issue might be the native contact not storing contact pictures in the same place that gosms is looking for them at...
okay.. i'm done..
galaxy_s.. tell your mom to call me so she can pick up her clothes..

I have the Google Finance app on my Defy+. In the last few days I noticed that the ticker had stopped updating. Tapping on the widget gets me an incomplete share price page and the title line says "Loading" continuously - it never finishes loading
I tried uninstalling Google Finance and re-installing it from Play. The result of that was that I couldn't add a share to the ticker list at all
Fortunately I had a Ti backup of the app so I restored that, with its data, and I now have the share back in the ticker - but it's still not updating. I've tried adding a different share to the ticker and it just sits there with the sync icon in the notification area, achieving nothing.
It's as if Google Finance can't talk to Google any more. All my other network apps, including eg Google Maps, work fine.
Anyone got any ideas?
I have the same problem, but my prob only started midday today
I also have the same problem. No idea what to do.
---------- Post added at 08:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:29 AM ----------
Its like Finance has been dying a slow death. I haven't been able to get my widget to auto update at all for months on multiple phones. Now this. I really wish there was another compact widget that would simply give me the current dow. Time to move on. Anyone have any suggestions?
The app called "stocks" uses your google finance portfolios and seems to work still (indicating a server-side problem for google). I don't like it as much as Finance, but at least it works. Doesn't come with a widget, though
Thanks but I really need a home screen widget
---------- Post added at 01:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:50 PM ----------
I think it says something that we are the only three people across the world making noise after Finance goes non-functional for about 3 days now.
I thought it was surprising that no one complained when the widget quit auto updating months ago. Here it goes completely dead and hardly a word.
If anyone is interested, I tried most of the widgets and this one is the only one that seemed to work and auto updated in as little as 1 min increments per the settings.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.inox.inostock&hl=en
I have the same problem
For the past few days It didn't update any stock quotes. I deleted data and uninstalled then reinstalled and now it doesn't even update my portfolio from Google Finance server and can't add new stocks or do nothing. It is completely non-functional now.
I'm also having the exact same problem on HTC Evo 3D.
- App wasn't syncing
- Deleted data and lost my portfolio
- Reinstalled and still not working
- Sync icon stays in the left hand corner but it does not update
The portfolio is still available on the full/mobile websites.
Same problem here with my motor RAZR Maxx. Widget stopped updating so I uninstalled and reinstalled. Now I can't get it to sync with my saved stocks.
Hmmm... yesterday I needed to rebuild my Galaxy S2 phone (had tried a different OS and had problems restoring the original). I had deleted google finance 2 days ago.
Today I reinstalled Finance, just to see.... and it's working fine! Got my portfolio reloaded and replicates prices nice & fast!
Soooo either Google Finance just started working again for everyone, or the solution to the problems reported here is some sort of delete..wipe..reinstall cycle
Good luck ladies & gents.

Apparently no reinstall needed. Wonder if by some miracle auto update started working also. We'll see when the market opens.
I sent an email to the support email address in the app and now it's working. Maybe they do read those emails.
Yup, working for me again now. Must have been a Google problem. (I did e-mail them about it twice but didn't hear anything back.)
Now all I have to do is find the RBS stock mnemonic which gives me the real current price of RBS ordinary shares. I know they're not great but 7.45p sure ain't right...
Google's Problem
I second ejstubb's assessment. I initially uninstalled / reinstalled with no resolution. As of last night, it seems to be working fine, so i can only assume it was a problem on Google's end.
Does anyone except me care about the fact that the stock monitor widget has quit auto updating months ago? I guess no one uses it?

I just checked the settings and mine was set to 4 hours. Maybe that is why I thought it wasn't auto updating. I just set it to 30 minutes.

What is your phone and rom?
Hi all, I have searched about this issue and it seems like there isn't a workaround for it. I recently acquired SGS3, and found this Email issue very annoying (specifically Hotmail). I tried K9 and MailDroid, and found that they didn't have as good as a Push feature as the stock SGS3 email app. (I was an avid Blackberry user)
Anyway, I just want to bring this to the attention of other more knowledgeable users on xda. Are there any methods to make Hotmail Email sent from SGS3 (using stock email app) show the Full sender name instead of the Hotmail login name?
Others with the same issues:
fingery said:
Is it possible to set the from name when sending an email using the default email app?
I'm sending via hotmail configured as exchange in the app but the from name always shows as the full name associated with my live login. On all my other ICS devices, in the standard email app its possible to configure what you want to show as your name in the from field.
Is this no longer possible as it looks like they've removed the option from the configuration screen. Any hack to do it?

Has anyone found an answer to this?
It was an issue with SGS2 and SGS1 before it. It's a Samsung stock email issue. Surely there are loads of people out there with Samsung phones and Hotmail accounts?

ok i finally managed to fix it in a very primative way, when you are going to your account settings you can see the "your name" option n it disappears right away, what you need to do is to change any option in the menu n exit, then get in the settings again n this time the "your name" option will last a second or two, enough time to hit it to be able to change it

This worked perfectly. I've had my Galaxy Note for just under a year and have had to resort to the official Hotmail app on the market which is very buggy. I was seriously annoyed when my name wouldn't appear from the stock email app, it otherwise worked very well.
As you said, when you enter the settings menu the Your name option appears for a second before disappearing. The only way to get it to return is to change any menu option, close the menu and then return to the menu. You have to be quick but you can select the option before it disappears and edit your name in the dialogue box that appears.
Good find!
It took a few attempts but here's a screenshot taken during that tiny one second window.
Isn't there another way to get the Your Name option updated? Unfortunately I must be really to slow as I'm never able catch that option for the fraction of second I see it...

Don't understand how this issue is still unresolved.. Extremely annoying!
Hi all,
I can't seem to click it, I do notice soemthing changes in the menu structure but there is no way that I can click on it...
Is there any other way of getting to this setting?
It is really annoying that it can't be changed!

alright os i got it running on my phone ,,, here are my thoughts....i might need to watch a video on how to change things around but i dont like how you cant customize it for when you hitting ur picture and only getting messenger , apps and recent activity .... it shoud have a option for phone ... you have to go into apps to use phone ....it doesnt seem very customizable .i also dont like hitting my home button to open apps honestly id rather it go tt the newst post made by a friend.um also when i went to close tasks in task manager and closed open apps it restarts fb home .... thats kinda annoying . just getting use to this but not sure if i even like it ? does anyone else have any thoughts about it ?

also i have noticed popping out a chat head or when recieveing a message i am not getting chat head?
Yea no chat heads here either
BaKeD
im sure it will be fixed soon .. someone will figure it out
Well the chat heads works in the regular messenger app! From the store.. maybe that can help make the chat heads work on this one.
Oh and fb home isnt working for me(the moded one) and suddenly it brings me some xperia integration stuff? Waa? Haha
yeah well after installing the apks that were in the link given no chat heads here ...........everything else seems to be working fine but no chat heads .. even when i go into messenger and try to pop out a chat head its a no go ... its not working ...

shayne! so the modded on didnt work and i tried the buil.prop one
insta-soft bricking once casually rebooted.. lolz
darn and i had to bring the note back to life, full wipe included.
.. and guys, actually FB home is just a launcher with lockscreen launcher stuff(as in, like nova, apex) except with NO customization other than turning off the messenger heads or logging in, or out or such fb based options.
And with the most gingerbread app drawer there is..
Basically you will only love this app, if you're an avid facebooker.. so for me only the messenger app will do, its got the chat heads anyway! bit choppy animations but it isnt anything a future update won't fix~
if you won't miss widgets and swapping things etc, if you wont miss ANDROID itself at all, then use fb home
It's worth trying it really but not my cup of tea.. i only use fb for the messaging and a couple likes etc, my entire life doesnt revolve on being on facebook
This is to make your android a facebook phone.

Hi,
I'm really not sure where to turn for help with an issue that I'm having after updating my GSIII to Android 4.3. After updating I immediately noticed an issue where I'm receiving notifications (in the pull-down menu) regarding 5 files that have "finished downloading".
The files listed are pictures that I sent myself ages ago and most likely downloaded from Gmail. These files are no longer saved on my phone nor have I interacted with them in months. This is sort of a phantom notification. Every time I clear these notifications, they repopulate and continue to do so over and over and over.
Tapping one of the notifications prompts a "target file does not exist" error message, which makes sense given that the "item" the notification is referring to doesn't actually exist. I've tried uninstalling a Gmail Attachment Downloader app that I had installed, thinking that was the culprit. No dice. I've reset the phone multiple times which also didn't fix it.
If anyone can offer any suggestions that DO NOT INCLUDE A FACTORY RESET, I would greatly appreciate it.
TIA
problem solved.

Never mind. Found the solution here on another forum:
go to downloads app and clear all of the downloads in internet and other.
