I am trying to bring in the default Calendar's view into my app and i found its possible using this
CalendarView calander = new CalendarView(this);
setContentView(calander);
This shows the calendar in month mode. Is it possible to make the CalendarView show the calendar in hourly mode?
I think you will need to write a custom implementation for that?

I've implemented the "calendar view", i.e., lollipop version of Android's Datepicker.
There's a difference between Android API 21 & 22 in the year selection of said datepicker when I click on "2015" to change the year:
using API21
using API22
I'm using a Nexus 5 simulator. I'm only seeing the current (2015) year entry in API22, whereas in API21, I can scroll through from ~1950 to ~2100. Same code and, as far as I can tell, same simulation settings.
I'm wondering if this is just a bug, if anyone else has encountered it, or has any tips for a workaround? I really like the calendar view that Lollipop offers so preferable if I can get this working right. Will update with any new information I find.
Found a quick fix. Programmatically set the min and max dates of the DatePickerDialog object. I did so in the DatePickerFragment static class definition, so every instance of DatePickerDialog gets set:
DatePickerDialog datePickerDialog = new DatePickerDialog(getActivity(), YourActivityHere, year, month, day);
datePickerDialog.getDatePicker().setMinDate(datePickerDialog.getDatePicker().getMinDate());
datePickerDialog.getDatePicker().setMaxDate(datePickerDialog.getDatePicker().getMaxDate());
You can also set this if you defined DatePickerDialog in an XML activity, but I'm not sure if the bug exists there.
I'm looking for a Calendar View in which I will be able to create events at date level and which has ability to show all events (task) in the form of a list. I found Extended Calendar View which allows to create at the hourly level but doesn't have ability to save the events or show the list of events. Can anyone suggest some calendar view?
Here is a Calender library you can dig through. Hope it helps.

I would like to use the brand new Date Picker and Time Picker that is now part of the new official Google Calendar App.
http://googlesystem.blogspot.de/2013/05/new-google-calendar-controls-for-android.html
All I found so far is this source code on grepcode but I can't find the widgets or fragments or activities there.
http://grepcode.com/snapshot/repository.grepcode.com/java/ext/com.google.android/android-apps/4.2.2_r1/
Is that already public or is there something similar out there?
I think the code you are looking for can be found here:
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/opt/datetimepicker/+/master/src/com/android/datetimepicker
There is some pretty directly usable source code snippets in this Android Developer Pages:
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/controls/pickers.html
I used it as-is and all works just fine.
Also, reference these:
DatePickerDialog
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/DatePickerDialog.html
TimePickerDialog
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/TimePickerDialog.html
DialogFragment

i need to display a calendar control in my app.I can not use google calender and other third party calendars.i want to display the selected date on the calender in a textview. i have searched for documents about calender view in net.but did not get anything.can anybody help me to do this?
If you want the full-activity implementation, you can try this post;
http://w2davids.wordpress.com/android-simple-calendar/
To display a calendar not using Google Calendar you could try android-calendar-view
Download Calendar v0.5.0
and follow that howto : How To Use
I made this Calendar Library for Android as part of my side project. Below is the link to the github and it has all the instructions on how to use it. If you still come across any difficulty implementing it let me know. Happy to help.

I'm writing my first app, and I have a question about DatePicker.
My app requires the user to input a date. The most user-friendly way would be to popup a calendar-like widget that displays the current month like a calendar grid - something like this:
I want to use that in place of the DatePicker interface - which has Month, Day, and Year fields, each with an up and down button to increment/decrement.
Is this type of functionality built into any Android widget or view, or would I have to design my own custom component to do this? I figured this would already exist, seeing how much this type of UI is used so frequently in non-mobile apps and web pages.
Thanks!
Now, in 2014, even the native DatePicker (link) contains small Holo looking CalendarView (link) to pick a day in month.
You can choose, if both spinners and CalendarView or just one of them is displayed by setting:
android:calendarViewShown
android:spinnersShown
I'm not sure if it's just API level 16+ or if it was even in Ice Cream Sandwich, but it's there. This is how it looks by default:
Moreover, on API level 21 and higher there is a new Material themed DatePicker that looks like following:
This is default on API 21+ and there are no spinners anymore, but you can switch back to the Holo one by setting
android:datePickerMode="spinner"
in your XML.
Since the API 11 there natively: CalendarView
This View is in HoloEverywhere since API 7.
Is this type of functionality built into any android widget or view, or would I have to design my own custom > component to do this?
There is no component for that in the Android SDK, sorry. The widget you illustrate is too small for a touchscreen. You can implement something larger (see the Calendar app), but you are largely on your own for that.
what i found so far:
http://code.google.com/p/android-calendar-view
http://code.google.com/p/openintents/wiki/CalendarPickerAPI
I have recently written exactly this as a modular app. Here is some sample code, documentation with screenshots, and .apk download.
Found a good implemetation in http://caughtinthemobileweb.wordpress.com/2011/06/20/how-to-implement-calendarview-in-android/
Also Since API level 11 (Android 3.0) there has been the native implementation of the CalendarView http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/CalendarView.html
Try to use this component:
https://github.com/truefedex/android-date-picker
If you want to use it like popup write on your onclick:
if (calendarPopup == null) {
calendarPopup = new PopupWindow(getContext());
CalendarPickerView calendarView = new CalendarPickerView(getContext());
CalendarNumbersView calendar = (CalendarNumbersView) calendarView.findViewById(com.phlox.datepick.R.id.calendar);
calendar.setShowDayNames(false);
calendarView.setListener(onDateSelectionListener);
calendarPopup.setContentView(calendarView);
calendarPopup.setWindowLayoutMode(
MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(llCalendar.getWidth(), MeasureSpec.EXACTLY),
ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
calendarPopup.setHeight(1);
calendarPopup.setWidth(llCalendar.getWidth());
calendarPopup.setOutsideTouchable(true);
}
calendarPopup.showAsDropDown(llCalendar);
you can use this lib for date selection
