Hi,
I have learnt that calendar crashes can be solved by clearing the calendar app's cache.
New problems:
I have loaded 5 different calendars from my Gmail. How come all of them are represented by pink colour? I'd like different colours for each calendar, as in Gmail and as the old calendar app allowed. Can't find any menu for this setting.
The phone no longer displays all entries from the Gmail calendars. All my calendar is there, as some upcoming entries are shown. I can't figure out why other upcoming entries are left out.
I hope someone can help.
I have the same issue. (About pink color)
My post (posted in the kxROM thread hoping kx knew something).

I'm not entirely sure if it's the SE layer ontop of the stock apps, but obviously *searching* like everyone says isn't the case - I've tried and nothing has come up working.
I having the same problem also.
But it works when I clear data on calendar.
You may wanna try this, but I stop auto sync first in case anything happened.
Go to Settings>Applications>Manage Application>, press Menu button, select Filter, select All.
After all applications shown, select Calendar and clear data, then Calendar Storage and clear data.
After clearing both data, then launch Calendar. I done these and the calendar can be launched. Then I turn on auto snyc again.
Same calendar problem, unable to fix it until now
I have the same problem.
After upgrading to .435 firmware, all my calendars (5 of them) turn up pink.
I have a smooth calendar widget that shows the correct colors. But somehow the calendar app itself does not read those colors.
I've tried to erase the data from both calendar and calendar storage.
Doesn't work.
I use my phone for business. This app is a must have!
Anybody please?
I've tried the clear data procedure as well, and no luck.
(Turned off auto-sync, forced-closed both, cleared data, rebooted).
I've also tried to replace it with a stock version, I just googled Android 2.1 stock calendar.apk. I know I'm most definitely missing something here, so someone that knows what they're doing fix my mistake. (if its possible)
I tried replacing the CalendarProvider.apk and added Calendar.apk (I also tested renaming Calendar.apk to SemcCalendarLargeui.apk to replace default).
So still looking for a fix to this disaster of a calendar application.
Edit: @Jaydee-S - so if the widget shows the right color, maybe we can isolate the problem to SemcCalendarLargeui.apk, which is just putting Pink for all the calendars and no options to change them. - Devs help us out please
I just downloaded Business Calendar Beta from the market.
Works perfectly and is a good alternative to the SE calendar.
But the questions remain: Why doesn't the SE calendar work and why doesn't everybody experience the same?
Actually that app you posted blows the stock one out of the water in my opinion. Good find.
Now i can delete SemcCalendarLargeui.apk no need to even see it.
omg, I deleted SemcCalendarLargeui.apk by mistake....can someone please upload the apk for me.
Has a solution been found to display the correct calendar colors in the stock calendar app, instead of the default pink that came with upgrading to .435?
Sorry dude, I have the same problem and have searched everywhere, without any luck.
My solution is business calendar app on the 435 rom.
Right now I'm using Trip's MIUI rom: try it out, it is blazing fast and works very well. Use it as my daily rom now. Last but not least: here the calendar works

I updated to build 435 yesterday. Since then, the default calendar app crashes. Have tried rebooting.
I sync my calendar with outlook through google. There are some semi-advanced entries there, ie meetings with replies. However, problem persists when I disable that calendar from my outlook.
Calendar data is accessible for my agenda widget. Data shown on the widget is even updated when I add data to my google calendar.
Any clues on how to solve this?
Reinstall everything what is named Calendar
Cheers
I reinstalled CalendarProvider.apk and SemcCalendarLargeui.apk. Still doesn't work.
Immediately after installing SemcCalendarLargeui.apk, I clicked "open". This caused the same error.
Any further suggestions? Please?
Go to Applications, Manage applications. Select calendar, and clear cache. Worked for me.
Thanks!
I had to uninstall the apps proposed from the previous poster, then opening the applications menu to allow for display of all apps (not only 3rd party). Then I was able to clear the cache.

I am also facing the same problem, however I do not see the calendar application under Applications>Manage Applications !
Could you please elaborate further how you fixed your problem...for me the phone is pretty useless without a calendar !
You have to filter shown applications

Thank you ! Worked like a charm.
However I noticed one problem .. I use three seperate calendars in google calendars color coded red, blue & yellow. After the update to the calendar application all three show as red . Previously all 3 calendars showed up with their respective separate colors
Did any one else notice or face this ?
I have one calender (maybe more, but this is the one i noticed) that doesn't show the items in the calender on the note.... It shows on my other phone that I have.
I did a hard reset but it didn't help.
Any ideas how to troubleshoot this?
Dumb question - is the calendar selected to sync?
Yep, in fact I made it the only selected cal. But nothing shows up. Other cals will sync wifi select them.
It's weird i "fixed" this issue by overwriting the cals apk in system/apps using root explorer. Reboot and now it works.
I think there's a bug in the stock rom.
I experienced a similiar issue when I first got my phone. Even though I set up a new gmail account from the phone, the calendar didn't show up as an option to sync until after I did a full reset and re-input my calendar info. Definitely something odd going on with that app.
I thought I should post my findings, in case anyone has the same problems down the line.
I tried a new ROM for my SGS4G: T959V. Everything seemed to be working pretty well, there were a few things I didn't like about it.
Eventually I noticed that I couldn't add to the calendar. As soon as I clicked Save it would be gone and not save to my gmail account. This was even the case when I added to "My Calendar" instead of my gmail calendar.
Everything was checked as far as Settings/Accounts/Sync Calendar but I eventually noticed that even things that I added from a computer weren't properly updating.
Even after re-ROMing the problem wasn't fixed. I tried basically every ROM before I figured out the solution:
There are two apps in the Manage Applications section: Calendar and Calendar Storage. I cleared the data of both of them, waited a minute or two. Voila, the calendar app works perfectly.
I couldn't find anything regarding this problem, so hopefully someone might find this useful if they have my problem.
Be careful if you use the local calendar and not the gmail calendar. Also, why do you use the local calendar and not the gmail calendar?
Keep tinkering
Hello,
I have an unbranded German S II. Since updating to Android 4.0.3 (through Samsung Kies), the standard calendar widget doesn't work like it used to anymore.
I synchronize with my Google account where I have multiple different calendars for different purposes (work, freetime, projects, etc.). On my phone I can go into the calendar app's configuration and tick the boxes of those calendars I want to have synchronized and shown. It used to work like that and I could make it so that only my work appointments would be shown on the calendar widget on my homescreen.
Now, after updating to ICS, the calendar widget will show all calendars at all times, rendering it less useful. No amount of fiddling with the properties has corrected this. After asking in two other forums, this is my last hope.
I really hope somebody here knows the problem and might be able to help. Or is this really just me? Thanks in advance!
I don't have a direct answer to your question, but if the stock calendar widget isn't behaving how you'd like it to, there's a Play Store brimming with alternatives. I'm sure at least one will function in the way you're hoping.
Yeah, I know. I don't need any fancy, skinnable, customizable calendar apps that fill the android market. I'd rather have the stock widget that just does what I want it to. Seeing as this worked fine before the update, I hoped there was something I could do. Alas, seems as if that is not the case. Thanks though
Hello, i have exactly the same problem. Did you find any solution ?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
It's good to hear someone finally acknowledging the problem. I was starting to question my sanity as it seems that out of millions of owners of the SII only I have the problem. Finally someone else speaks up, thank you for that
Sadly, I have not found a solution since. I completely changed the way I organize my events in google calendar. It's not as well organized as it was before but it gets the job done. Still, I would prefer if the calendar worked like it did before...
If you don't want to redo your whole google calendar organization, I guess you could indeed try a third party calendar. The play store is full of calendar apps; I was overwhelmed, because I just want a simple and clean calendar, like the stock one.

When you select the widget, you should be prompted to select which calaendar to display. If it doesn't, check out this alternative widget. You can still use your default calendar, but use this widget instead of the stock:
Simple Calendar Widget
When I'm trying to create a calendar appointment using S Voice, it creates the appointment, but when it asks to save, it fails
Here is a screen shot
View attachment 1432065
Any ideas ... Have tried it a few times, after reboot etc, but still nothing
I'm not sure but this might be linked to which calendars are enabled, s voice might be linked to only the Samsung calender?
Signed in with the Samsung account and selected Samsung calendar as default, but it still ailed
Ok, was just trying a few things out, and force stopped the s planner app and then clear cache. It now saves the appointment, which is good news, however, it seems to save it in the local my calendar and not the gmail calendar that I am using. I only have the gmail calendar selected in settings, calendars ... Any ideas how to default it to gmail?

Was this a permanent fix?
Nope, it did not fix it permanently, it still does the same thing until I clear the cache and then it saves .... Really not sure what is wrong with it

Did you ever get this to work? I have the same issue. Sprint even replaced my device, but the problem remains. I have exhausted as much as I know to do, but I can't get it to work?
There's a thread on Android Central for a user with a Galaxy Note 2 having the same problem. Weird part is, I have a Note 2 and can Save using S-Voice.

Nope, never managed to fix it permanently, only getting it work after a clear cache
