Is there a way to use dual window for gmail and calendar? - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Verizon LG G4 unrooted. Pulling up dual window it has a limited set of apps. Gmail is there but no calendar. Is there a way to pull up both at once? I want to pull up client emails and enter appointments into the calendar with both apps showing.

There's a app called: App Cloner link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.applisto.appcloner
and it lets you to edit app... You can clone these apps within enabling some features especially the Multi-window support on display options..

Do you use Gmail app from Google? You have to add your e-mail account to Motoblur. Also disable original Gmail sync or you'll get notifications twice I think.
[edit] That's if you use a ROM with Motoblur, I don't know if there's e-mail support in deblur ROMs.
Hi
I thought I had added it, my google account appears in the accounts as " other account" below the motorblur account with all the twitter, facebook etc.
Have I got it in the right place?
( you can tell this is my first smartphone )
Do you have Accounts or other apps from Motoblur like Social Networking? Stock Motorola software is different for various regions and might come with or without social features called as Motoblur. If you don't have it then Messages widget works with regular text messages only, I think.
No I don't have accounts for any of those social networks like twitter etc.
So I suppose I am stuck? And won't be able to have the e-mail displayed within the widget?
Thank you very much for your replies and help though.
I've figured it out and now get email in the messages widget. I hadn't realized there are TWO seperate accounts one for G-mail and one for E-mail. It's quite confusing for a smartphone virgin, but what a cool toy

[Q] How to remove default app links on a rooted phone..??

Hello Frnds,
Recently I rooted my phone as I wanted to remove my stock SMS app due to missing functions as described in my previous post and also to remove the stock contact app as there is no provision to add birthday. After rooting, I removed these two apps and some of unwanted apps provided by SE. I installed new phonebook app and Handcent SMS app and I was happy unless I needed to add a new contact to my phonebook. When I click on add new contact , it showed me an error message saying application not found to handle this. When I again reinstalled the removed Contacts app back and click on add new contact from my new phonebook app, it opened the add new contact page of the Contacts app i.e. without Birthday entry. I was so annoyed to see that I landed up on the same path from where I had started.. Can anyone tell me how can I chagne the default link so that I can use the Add Contact funtion of new app Phonebook and not of the Contacts app.
Most of such replacement apps, especially messaging ones, need to work along with the corresponding default one. As far as I know, only GO SMS can work individually, but again, it's not recommended to uninstall such vital system apps because they are deeply integrated in stock ROM.

Thanks for ur reply.. But as u must know that there is not provision to add birthdate in the stock contacts app and even if I add some other app from market which has provision to add birthday and click on add new contact, it again opens the same stock contacts app's add contact page...

That last part is the third-party app's issue.
See, there are three elements in a Contacts app: the dialer, the contact list and the contact viewer.
Some apps include only the first two, thus when you open a contact, stock app (and more specifically InfiniteView) appears.
As for birthdays, if you sync your contacts with Facebook inside Xperia, you'll get them.
Or you could add a note to each contact with their birthday.

Q how to use a different calendar when tapping on notifications

Hi,
I have installed me another calendar app (aCalendar). When i get notifications in the topbar my phone uses the build in calendar. How can i avoid this and use aCalender?
Thanks

You mean you're getting both default calendar and aCalendar notifications at the same time?
Go into the default Calendar app and select the account it's synced too and uncheck the sync box. Then it'll stop notifying you because it won't be synced to new events.
You need to clear defaults for the gmail app. then you can select which app to do the action you want next time you click it.

Doesnt work here.
Is my calender app perhaps the problem? It uses the build in calendar so it might not handle the notifications...
Am i correct? Dont i have to use another app? Which one do you use?
Thanks in advance
@martonikaj no i just get the googlecalendar notification. Sorry overread your question in first place...
Bye
Hi
It doesnt work till today. I tried several calendars now (jorte, quick and lately business calendar) The problem remains The Same: when i pull down Thema notification bar where The event notification pops up and select the event The phone jumps in the Google calendar.
Is this an ICS problem?
What am i doing wrong?
Please help.
Thx
Ateshga
Whichever app is providing the notification will open when you click. You need to set up notification with your desired app and disable notification in the unwanted app - of course, having said that, I'm not sure those options are available, so it may just be easier to freeze the undesired app instead...
Hi i now found my failure: i got what i paid for. Free apps mostly dont support notifications.
I now bought an app (business calendar) and all is fine now.
Seems i have to learn a bit more about the android world.
Thx for the help i got ...
A.
I started using Business Calendar. I removed notifications for the default calendar, but I forgot to remove sync. The notification bar would never clear, now I think I know why. Thanks martonikaj.

[Q] How to set default view in Email app

I have two accounts in the stock email app and I want the combined view to be the default but it keeps coming back to the main email account. How do you set it to default to combined view instead?
You need to use the email widget. There is a 1x1 icon and when you select it it will ask which accounts you want to use.
I see, it was a shortcut to create the icon for it. Thanks!
