I have noticed a strange behavior in the Google calendar app. When ever I add an event from my phone on a calendar that is not the default one, and later view it on the computers browser, I see a "person icon" indicating a guest. And when I enter that event I see the name of the selected calendar as the guest (technically I'm my own guest).

Is that a result of settings which I can correct? (Or is that a bug?)

I'm using Android 2.3.5

    Same for me, I didn't change any of settings in the calendar app.

  • What kind of device, is it rooted, and are you using a custom ROM? Since this is an old issue, have you since updated the device to a newer version (and seen the problem stay/go away)?

  • I'm using a rooted Galaxy S 2, haven't updated or changed anything. The problem is still there just as described (I just tested that again)

I had the same problem. But it disappeared. I am not 100% sure why, but I suspect that either Android 4.0 (CM9) fixed it, or the new separately released official Calendar app on Play Store.

Did you checked that it's your Google profile in the calendar app when you create an event? I mean , when you create an event, next to the color change you need to checked that it's your mail there, your calendar.

I have a bunch of calendar in one account (personal, work, school, etc) and i can separately add event to each of them.. Here is a pictures from my device to show you what i mean: Screenshot_1 Screenshot_2

It's the only thing i can think of, so i hope it's helpful!

  • It is my account, when I do it right from the first time there is no problem. Only when I edit an entry. I didn't really understand what you are saying in this answer... What do you think is the problem? What is the corresponding solution?

  • @Martin never mind, the solution i was think of didn't taken into account that if you do it in the first time it's fine, and it's happening just when you edit an entry. I think it's happen all the time, but just from the smartphone/tablet (ie the application) and from the web is fine. So, sorry man, I can not think of anything that causes this problem..

Most likely because when you're adding to your phone, you're adding to a different account which is synced with your Google account. I know my phone has its own "samsung" calendar which syncs with Google's. Have a look in your calendar's settings to see if you can establish this. Also check you don't have two linked Google accounts.

    This is not the case. I have given my google account + pass in the phone, and it automatically started syncing. And if I choose the right calendar from the start, this doesn't happen.

  • perhaps you are trying to add stuff to a shared calendar? - to see this go to your google calendar online and check the left side for others' calendars
