I like the simplicity and the ease at which it easily integrated itself with my G Cal. It would give me custom reminder times, I could set it up for Sunday, Tuesday appointments for example. Of course i had it modified with home brew and tweaks thanks to WebOS install and Jay Canuck's killer softwareI don't think so. But its possible if rooted you may be able to put the stock calendar on there. I recommend Launcher Pro Plus ($3) and using his fantastic widgets (only available on the Plus version). That calendar widget makes the Samsung calendar so easy to use with a toggle calendar vs. agenda view and a quick button to add events. The only lame thing is Samsung's insistence to default to the phone calendar rather than Google - but that's easily changed when you're making your event.
I'm curious what you loved about the pre calendar so much. The complete lack of Agenda view killed me and the lack of readable text size in many of the views and lack of ability to link contacts to events on device was terrible. Agendus on the previous palm generation was great- but Palms' insistence on not allowing developer access to the core Pre databases killed it for me.
I left for that very reason. Now I have loads of calendar widget options- different ways to view my calendars and tasks. And TOUCHDOWN for Microsoft Exchange server? AMAZING. It's like Outlook for your phone. There is a beta to have it sync with your local outlook if you're into that thing by the way- google it or email the developer. The Demo is free and lasts 30 days. Shame that app doesn't work with cloud accounts like Google, or I'd use it for all my PIM data needs.
It's very possible - I've run ROMs that have the AOSP (vanilla Android) calendar in place of the Samsung one. I believe the calendar is located in "/system/app", so it's just a matter of pushing the AOSP calendar via adb or perhaps deleting the Samsung one with something like Root Explorer and putting the vanilla calendar in there.
Top Right Hand Corner in Root Explorer you will see where it says Read Only button, click on that to toggle it to write mode.Was anyone able to figure out how to remove the stock .apk? I am trying in Root Explorer but it won't let me delete the system Calendar app bc it's "read only".
Stang, I believe in an earlier post you claimed to be using Root Explorer. Use Root Explorer again, make sure your set in Write mode instead of Read Only and copy and paste the TouchWiz30Calendar.apk to /system/app/Ok, so I deleted it because of a whole roundabout story. Anyway, I have an APK for a Touchwiz Calendar but I can't install it through Astro for some reason. Any ideaS?

Astro does not provide access to copy and paste to root level directories/files.
What version of Froyo and what version of CWM are you running?Where do I find the TouchWiz30Calendar.apk?
What version of Froyo and what version of CWM are you running?
Edit, I'm going to take a wild guess and say EC05 and CWM 3.0.0.6. Otherwise this will still work on EB13 too..

Droid Charge... Wrong section friend... This is the Epic 4g..2.2.1 on the Droid Charge, I don't think we have CWM yet. But I should still be able to install it...
