I think they're talking about bugs specifically on the Samsung Galaxy S III.

I'm talking about bugs in stock 4.1.1 which provides you with the 'purest' Google experience which is also in the Nexus 7 I presume.

Another question for you android users. Have you downloaded a good calendar that syncs across your android devices and with your gmail calendar?

I have been happy enough with the default calender but now that I have 2 devices I want them to sync. I turned off the sync and visibility of the internal calendar and only turned on my gmail account calender (on both my devices) but the events wont sync.

Any ideas? Or do u have a better calender in mind? "Business Calender" on google play looks okay

The new messaging widget, put it on one of your home screens and scroll all the way down pretty fast. It crashes the stock launcher for me. There are a few other things. You have to toy around with your phone/tablet to uncover some yourself.

maybe toggle the sync button in accounts, and make sure that syncing the calendar is ticked off under your google accounts under settings. mine seem to sync fine.. i'd probably have to take a look at your set up in person, but i don't see why it's not working. People says business calendar is good, jorte isn't bad, but i'm not sure if it syncs across all.

hmmm i never used that widget but i'll take your word for it. I'd rather not have people just browsing my messages when they ask to see my phone haha.

I'm using the galaxy nexus, what phone are you using?

on another note, been reading reviews for tablet talk and it seems like it would be pretty handy such that you wouldn't have to have both of your gadgets on the table ready to be stolen at thode all the time...

AHh I fixed it! I thought I had covered all my bases with everything syncing. I have it set to sync just the one gmail account on both devices, and under sync and accounts it says that account is synced. I just realized I could click on it and choose to sync mail, contacts and calender. Sync calender s.v.p.!

Awesome, Im happy this will work for me just fine

I don't use it as a widget myself, I was just trying out some of the new obvious features. I'm using the Nexus S. Will stay stock as long as I can then hop over to CM10 once it's stable.
