Hi everyone!
I want to remove all google calendars from my phone. I'm using an other CalDAV service. That's why I find them distracting and want to get rid of them.
I did de-select syncing the calendar in my Google account on my phone (Xperia Z2) so the calendar won't get synced any more. I also read that people cleared the calendar storage. I tried to clear that as well as both calendar apps (Android/Google and Sony). This will actually remove the Google calendars for a few moments, however, they are coming back :crying:
Is there a way to get rid of the calendars entirely?
My device is not rooted and I have no intentions to change that just to get rid of the Google calendars...
Thanks in advance!

I noticed recently that my phone wasn't reminding me of my calendar reminders. When I went to check the settings i see that my primary google calendar is missing. I tried to add the calendar back by going into setting and calendar but I have no option to make it visable. I tried re-signing in but i get a message saying there is already an account for my gmail.
I know a full factory reset will fix this but before I do any suggestions?
Thanks
Mark
Bump: I've been trying to fix my missing calendar issue for the day and now luck.
Check yours... Has your calendar account disappeared?
How do you get it back?
Did you clear data by any chance? I was just trying to correct my calendar account on my Scroll Excel, as it somehow associated its self with the wrong email address, and when I cleared the data from both the calendar app and the calendar storage through manage apps, I managed to get rid of the wrong email address.
Now I just need to find out how to put the right email in!
hmm, i also once noticed i didnt had the calender for my google birthdays, but i couldnt find a fix (didnt look for long though because i was going to flash a rom anyways) so i did factory reset and flashed new rom and now it works fine.
try to remove your google account (correct one), then clear the data of your calendar and then add him again?
I have a strange problem where the events in my Google Calendar are not syncing with the stock calendar application.
There are one or two of the latest events that I have added, and these show up in both locations, but all previous events are nowhere to be seen.
When I click on a day in the calendar app I get two messages:
Google calendar cannot sync with Samsung Kies. Use My calendar to sync with Kies - irrelevant, I do not use Kies.
Local calendar cannot sync with Google calendar. You need a google account - at which I go to the account and sync it. Nothing happens.
I can create an event in my Google calendar and it pops straight through as it should do, but none of the previous events and I keep getting these sync errors.
Please help, as it's giving me a headache.
Thanks.

Hmm ... that is not easy to solve.
I also had a similar issue with my Google calendar synch.
After installing a leaked version of Google Talk with Video chat (I think it was the one from paulobrien => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075494&highlight=modaco+talk), my Google account was deleted and I had to create it again.
Since then, I have no problem to synch my Google calendar entries.
Everything is fine now.
So, you may try to delete your Google account on your phone and re-install it again afterwards.
Good luck !
Im trying to sync my contacts and calendar from the phone to gmail so its available out there in case I need to pull it down to reset/new phone etc. I finally figured out how to get my freaking contacts out there. But the calendar is still not showing up on my gmail account calendar online. I only have the one calendar on the phone, everything is checked and it acts like it syncs, no errors, but calendar is blank online gmail. What could be the issue?
I just read that one person stated you can NOT sync from the phone calendar to gmail, only the other way around...this cant be true.

Its not true. You can sync between your gmail calendars fine between phone and gmail. But the samsung also adds a new calendar in the Calendars app called "Samsung Calendar" and this does not show up in gmail. At least from my experience.
Same issue here. Except I think I'm trying to do the opposite. I'm trying to get what's in my gmail calendar to show up on the phone's calendar and I can't figure out how. When I open up the calendar app, I have "My Calendar" and below that I have my gmail calendar. If I put a checkmark on the gmail calendar, all my events show up, but if I remove the checkmark and only show "My Calendar", obviously none of my events show up.
Is there any way I can move the events in the gmail calendar into "My Calendar"?
Actually you just said the same thing, so it does appear you cant sync the phone default calendar with gmail, at least not sync from phone to online, only the other way. Why the hell would there be more than one on there? Sorry coming from an iphone pretty much you had the calendar app right there on the home screen and the S3 is the same, but sorry this one doesnt play well with google?? Ok so is there an easy way to sync the phone calendar with the phone gmail calendar, then sync it online?
Dont get me wrong, I will not miss the iphone at all, just seems some simple tasks should well, be simple. Thanks guys
has any one else noticed that since you installed the new stand along google calendar app from the Play store that your "birthdays" calendar no longer shows properly on your phone?
I have a few calendars installed to show in my calendar (holidays, birthdays) and they still show properly on the web version on my computer, however, for some reason, it is just the birthday calendar that no longer is visible on my phone in the google calendar app. My Canadian holidays still show though.
I already tried to unsubscribe and re subscribe but no luck.
Any suggestions
I just noticed that calendar sync does not exist with my google account, even thou in the calendar app I have my google account listed.
If I install google calendar then the sync option shows up but I dont want two calendar apps taking ressources and eating away battery.
I dont have root and have no plans to root the phone anytime soon.
Has anyone found this problem and found a solution?
