[MOD] Calendar with text in month view (odex/deodex)

[shaftenberg]

Good evening folks,

here is my Calendar text-mod (14.71.8) for having all appointments with text and not as bars in month view. You may apply this mod in every ROM, equal if odexed (stock) or deodexed ROM.
I'll guide you step through step as we got no CWM recovery yet, so you must do it manually.

- download Calendar.apk and move it to your internal SD card with an explorer or via adb:

adb push Calendar.apk /sdcard/

- after that type in the following commands, beware that su wants you to grant root access (SuperSU popup)

adb shell
su
stop
mount -o rw,remount /system/ /system/
cp /sdcard/Calendar.apk /system/app/
rm /system/app/Calendar.odex
mount -o ro,remount /system/ /system/
reboot

Done! Enjoy this mod

Reminder: Although this mod was tested on my device, I'll take no responsibility if you damage your system, so just do it if you know what you do!

If we have CWM, I will provide a flashable .zip then.

Could you update this post for the new build, greatly appreciated. As well would it be possible to just create an Xposed module instead so that this doesn't need to be updated as frequently?

I haven't updated to the new build so I wait for someone who makes a system dump, odex or deodex is equal to me.

Not interested in Xposed, because when you have AppSettings enabled, you don't need this mod, you only need to set the settings for Calendar to a dpi <= 213 (tablet mode).

I've tried using App Settings for the calendar, however changing the dpi to 320x480 does nothing and manually inputting a dpi of 213 just makes everything bigger.

Try 1280x800, dpi 213

Just tried that as well, the text version seems to work however everything is too over-sized as seen below.

Man, you should study the AppSettings guide lower the font size and you are done.

First, thanks for the modified calendar app!

Newbie question: Where can I find this "AppSettings" -- an app, I presume? I tried looking for it on the play store and I can't find it.

THANKS!
