    Looking for the old 4x1 Google Calendar Widget

    I second the question. I used to really like the simple calendar widget. It was a good quick way to see reminders of rapidly upcoming events. It's always frustrating when they eliminate something useful when they update a program or system. I know there are other calendar apps out there, but...

    Samsung galaxy s3 battery drain fast!

    It seems I am having the same "authentication error" issue with my gs3, but oddly enough, my problem comes and goes. I will check it from time to time and see "authentication error", and then other times it will be connected. I've twice been actively using the phone when it spontaneously said...
