Google Calendar Client 0.20
Walking around in town, trying to remember exact address for the next meeting, wondering if you had free time between 4 and 6pm or need to call someone -- where all the data is at your calendar at Google.com but there is no real no-nonsense way of taking a look with your Nokia phone?
This native Symbian application comes to rescue. It runs on newer phones - tested on Nokia N8 N82 and N97 - providing access to Google calendar. It is a online realtime client. For data connection it is agnostic - can do both WiFi, 3G or anything else that you have available on the phone. This application does not work in offline mode, it does not mirror event data to phone, it does not attempt to sync data with nokias own builtin calendar.
Release notes
New: Allows you to change active day when in calendar view
Improved: Displaying variable content in event view
Improved: Handling of all day events, tasks, other "nonstandard" calendar content
Technical: UI code rewritten to support XML based graphical skins
Technical: if app finds e:\g_log.txt (mass media drive) it will log its progress there. If said file is not present - logging is disabled.
Kown Issues:
does not work on 3rd edition phones and is only usable on touchscreen devices - if you dont have 3rd edition or no touchscreen go with the 0.1 (see below) for now
crashes on event view if logging is enabled and event data contains '%'
Install instructions
Connect your phone with computer, enable PCSuite/OviSuite mode
Click on the file in Win Explorer.
Ovi Suite opens, asking if you want to install, answer Yes
On phone you have the same questio, answer Yes
Start the app if successfully installed
Enter valid google uname-pwd combo and you are set to rock and roll
Current thinking for future improvements are:
WRT widget to show upcoming events
Linking to google maps from event details/description addresses and URLs
Better navigation across days incl search, weekly view, etc
