ICS Calendar Widget Date Bug

[paul4os]

I'm running the .587 software release.

Today is 10th September. I added a new calendar event for 25th September to my Google calendar (all OK). I have the calendar widget on my homescreen and it shows "No upcoming calendar events" (as it should as there are no events in the immediate future). If I tap on "No upcoming calendar events" it will show me my next event (the one on 25th September) -- all good so far.

However, when I look at the details shown for this event it shows both the "From" and "To" times as "01:00, Thu, 1 Jan 1970"!!! (if I go through the Calendar app and not the widget the dates display properly as 25th September). This is extremely annoying, and it can also corrupt your calendar dates by replacing them with this 1970 date if you then go on to tap the "edit event" button.

Please fix this bug!!!!

Have you also tried with other calendar widgets to see if the same problem occurs? It's wise to try so your able to sort out what might be causing the issue.

Try it out and let me know!

Hi Petter,

I just tried some other calendar widgets such as Simple Calendar Widget etc. from Google Play and can't reproduce it with those as they don't seem to have a similar functionality.

It is a very wierd problem as it only occurs sporadically - you must tap precisely on the "No upcoming calendar events" text and even sometimes when you tap there nothing happens at all.
