I seem to have a bug where birthdays that are imported to my Note run from 1am to 1am and are therefore showing for 2 days in my calendar. Im guessing that its because I am a user of daylight saving time mode (UK). On all my other calendars, London is (+0) yet in my calendar apps London is (+1)
Anyone else have this issue?

Hey there. I've a problem with my Facebook synced contacts. The birthdays are all wrong by one day. If I look at one of these contacts then there is the birthday if written in and the facebook birthday which is wrong. Any idea how to solve this?
greetz Floh
upz for you as its happening to me as well ...
used to happen to windows mobile 6 when birthday was all day event and phone registrered birthday to next or previous day (i think it was previous). after several different sync i had 2 or 3 birthdays for each contact. really annoing.
i find that this is also happening in the new OTA 2.2 sense roms.
does anyone has a fix for this?
me too!! its just weird. And only some of the contacts (probably about 20%) are having such problems. The rest are fine.
help?
bringing this issue back for discussion.
I have similar problems with the facebook birthday sync it is one day earlier.
However, when i access the facebook page in the browser, the birthday is correct!
Makes me wonder if it could be due to time zone difference, as in the syncing is not adjusted for time zone differences.
for e.g. i'm in Singapore GMT +8:00. But in facebook, maybe its default is US time which is GMT -4 to -7, yet I cannot find anyway for me to choose my region and timezone in the facebook website, not in account settings or profile or etc...
Are people facing this problem living outside USA?
Mine was wrong by one month!
Anyone hv any idea ? I also facing the same problem. Birthday wrong by one day in calendar ....
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Same problem here. Not all, but many birthdays are off by one day (displayed 1 day earlier).
Yup.. can be embarrassing , my friend at work had " two " birthdays ... was not sure so I broyght her a card on the wrong day ...a month early ...
Same thing here.
Mine too, I ended up putting everyone's birthday's that I cared about in manually.
Would be interested in a proper solution.
You can easily export your birthdays from Facebook to your PC and sync it with your Google Calendar. Later sync the whole thing with your HTC, works like a charm to me.
It has something to do with the time zone. I switched it from Central Time to GMT and the birthdays went from behind one day off to the correct day. Not sure how to fix it.
I'm seeing weird behavior with my Stock calendar over the past couple of days, lots of FC'ing, and disappearing to the point of having to reboot the phone. So today I removed my email accounts and readded them. Now that they have been readded, any appointments that were scheduled before DST show up an hour off, and meetings that were scheduled after the time change are correct. Meaning the re-occurring meetings that I have are all one hour off. I'm syncing with exchange. (Also, using a third party mail app, everything is fine)
Anybody experiencing this?
I have experienced this on my 1st android device (SGH-I896). I know this looks crazy but you might have a duplicate schedule/appointment. Second, I really don't use the stock calendar for it has terrible issues for me like SoD's and FC's so I use third party Calendar apps like Business Calendar or Touchdown Email...
Hoping someone with a Note 2 could do a quick calendar test for me. With the standard Google Calendar all day events with a reminder are based off of 5PM the day prior. So if you have a 15 min reminder for an all day event it will fire at 4:45PM the day before. Does the built-in Samsung/TouchWiz calendar work the same way or does it work like a standard exchange calendar where it is based on 12AM the day of the event and fires at 11:45PM the day before?
Thanks!
Bump. Anyone?
Update my HOX to 4.1.1 two weeks ago. Found out one strange issue related to Exchange Activesync Calendar
If setup an all day event of D day (one PC with Outlook or on HOX), Although the event will show up correctly in the stock Calendar App (at the top column of day view, as 1st attached picture), but if you tap it and enter the detail view, the event will show up as from D day 0:00 to D+1 day 0:00. <--as "Test Exchange in attached picture"
Setup a All day event in Google Calendar will have no this problem. When tap and enter the detail view of event, it will still show as "All Day" (as "Test Google" in attached picture", instead of "D day 0:00 to D+1 day 0:00"
This problem will make Calendar related APPs behave strangely. Like Smooth Calendar will show this "All Day" event whole day, even it was setup to hide the "All day" from SC's view.
Anyone has same issue or a solution?
It's confirmed that it's not happened before upgrade to 4.1.1, my other phone (Desire) with Gingerbread has no this problem when sync to same Exchange server, neither.
Thanks!
262 views and still no reply? Anyone confirmed this problem?
Probably just the way the two companies handle their calendars.
Outlook may be based on time.
Whereas Google may look at them as days, unless a time is stated.

Thanks for the reply. However, before update to 41.1, everything is okay... All day event is represented same for both Exchange and Google...
Since it's broken through the system (different calendar app shows same result), I suspect it's in the underlying Activesync code in 4.1.1, not just the problem of Calendar app.

Same problem here. All day events in Exchange calendar show up from 11:00 pm actual day til 11:00 pm next day. No solution found yet.
With Google calendar everything is okay.

Is there any update on this? I've got exactly the same problem with some all day entries (typically birthdays or anniversaries) appearing as starting at 23:00 on the correct day and running until 23:00 on the following day. Phone was updated to JB a few months ago and I only added the Active sync account on Monday. It is definitely an Android based problem as other devices (iPad, BlackBerry) work fine.
Waiting in antici.................................pation of an update.
I have the same issue with HTC One and Asus Infiniti tab The only thing that seems to help for now is to open every such recurring all-day event in Outlook, open the series properties, change the event hours from 00:00-00:00 to 00:00-23:59 (duration 2879 mins), save it. Wait for the phone to sync, open the event in Outlook once again and change the event hours back from 00:00-23:59 to 00:00-00:00 (duration 1 day). Wait for the phone to sync, everything is OK then. Little tiresome workaround, but at least it works. What is interesting it is definitely Android issue, because all my devices with Android 4.1+ have the same issue. I think it is somehow related to time zone issues. The other trick is to remove problematic event and create it directly from the phone's calendar app.
I have a T-Mobile S4, SGH-M919, kernel 4.4.2, baseband NB4, and rooted.
My Android calendar syncs with Google calendar. It wasn't syncing all events that I verified are on Google calendar by logging in to the Google Calendar web site. Additionally, the events missing on the Android calendar appear on my calendar in Thunderbird running the Lightning and Provider for Google add-ons.
I've noticed that the events that are not displaying are events scheduled for weekend days (i.e., Saturday and Sunday) although all days of the week are displayed on calendar. I have tried looking for a setting pertaining to displaying or allowing events on weekends and have not found a setting.
What I am wanting to do is to have a widget that will display events for the day as well as have active calendar reminders that will display reminders even on weekends.
Thank you very much for any help!
