Google have the ability to subscribe to other people calendars and show the colors associated those subscribed calendars.
Example:
My calendar - [email protected] - HOME:
- Red: calendar1
- Blue: calendar2
Work calendar - [email protected] - WORK:
- Yellow: calendar 3
- Green: calendar 4
What I did is subscribe to the "WORK" calendar for my "HOME" calendar, so in my "HOME" calendar it will show appointment from the "WORK" calendar.
I noticed that Samsung S-Calendar apps CAN show the colors I setup in Google Calendar, whether it is the "HOME" calendar or ANY subscribed calendar ("WORK").
However, none of the 3rd party calendar apps I use, CalenGoo, Pocket Informant, etc can do the above. The subscribed calendar will show the same color, whatever it is I choose.
Does anyone know of a 3rd party app that can do what S-Calendar do when it comes to color?

Not sure if it does exactly what you want it to, but I use "Business Calendar" and it colours my subscribed calendars correctly as far as I've noticed. It's all over a great calendar app.

Is that a Calendar widget that shows the upcoming events on the main screen? In which it will auto refresh itself once there is a new event being uploaded to the calendar?
was "Is that" meant to say "Is there"? if the answer is yes, then you're in luck, search Calendar Widget in Dream/Dream Applications
My bad. 'Is there', hahah.. Is the Calendar Widget stable enough?
I like the Pure Calendar widget.
Right click on your home page and select widget. You probably have a calendar widget already on your phone (depending on which ROM you are running)
Is that a calendar widget, or are you just happy to see me? sorry, couldn't help it.
Has anyone got the stock email app to work with Launcher Pro, meaning I can check my emails, and I can have it notify me of an email in the notification bar, but I cannot get it to post the number of unread email in green like it use to do on the envelope. Now I know some of you will say download the unread Gmail app, but when you do that and open the emails it does not open it in the stock app, which is what I want as it shows the full email body and replies like the web base one, I have also put the red Gmail icon in the dock station and set the settings to notify on the dock station and works fine, but I want the stock email to do that either on the home screen or the dock, any suggestions anyone
Under Preferences / Dock Settings there is an option to display Unread Gmail Count
I is checked marked but does not work with the native app

Hello,
I have installed the Agenda Calendar Widget and have appended my Google calendar to the widget. I did some research and one of the suggestions was to login to Gmail and change the colour of my calendar there which I did. However, it does not sync up with the Agenda Calendar.
I use a black background and the colour that my widget uses for my gmail calendar is a dark navy blue which is hard to read. Is there a workaround for this issue or should I direct my query to the developer?
Thanks in advance.
Google: try a different color on google.com; preferably a primary color.
Exchange: remove and recreate the account until the right color shows (!), or use Improved Email (market)

Thanks! That worked. I guess it takes sometime to sync the calendar colour.

If you're looking for a home screen widget I like Android Agenda Widget. I can add Custom(My Calendar), Gmail, US Holidays, or Email Account calendars. Plus it comes with different options for the sizes (2x2, 2x3, 2x4, 3x1, 3x2, 3x3, 3x4, 4x1, 4x2, 4x3, 4x4) and you can customize the look of it. I have my launcher set with 3 screens and the widget set at 4x4 with no top or bottom toolbars on a side screen so I can scroll over and look at the calendar and then scroll back to my home screen. Fills the screen nicely.
I like CalWidget myself.
I like smooth calendar widget, it's real simple/plain.
Hey gents the stock calander is so washed out I cant believe there are no options to change the colors. With that said I have the need to sync with google online and create re-occuring events.
Any Calander App suggestions????????? TY
You cant really change the colours of the calendars. That has to be set in a proper browser. However once that is set, you can change which calendar the event belongs to and that will change the colour. I have 4 different colours on my android calendar
