Bug Description

How to reproduce (I have Czech version so menus are in Czech - translations are in parantheses, but they may not be absolutely identical to what you would see in English version)

1. Click on the right top menu
2. Select Nová událost (New event)
3. Select Celodenní událost (Whole day avent)
4. Click on Od datefiels (From)
5. Select 2nd April (for example)
6. Name the event
7. Save event by clicking on check icon in top right corner

Result: New event at 1st April was created

Expected result: New event at 2nd April was created

All dates are shifted by one day.

Using Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu edition
Ubuntu Image part 20150312
Ubuntu Utopic Unicorn (development branch) - armhf (20150312-002053)

Could you please provide a screenshot of the event where you see the issue, and perhaps tap on the event itself and edit it, and see if it shows the correct date?

You can take a screenshot by holding vol+ and vol- together on the device.

Had the same problem on my phone.
Is reproducable every time.

The event will be saved on the provious day and also syned with this data.
When you look at the event data is also shows the previous date.
So it seems that this is not a display issue but the event is already saved wrong.

Maybe this is a timezone issue. (i am in UTC+2)

I think it is not related to the bug above, the bug does not say anything about all day events. I get this bug also on bq aquaris for all day events. I am using Slovak localization. Should not it be related to locale settings? Moreover when you edit the record you see the day before also. So you should create event one day later to be created the day you want.

I also observe this bug on my aquaris with UTC+2. The offset of one day is also applied to an whole day event which last for more than one day:
1. Create a all-day event with a start-date 2015-06-12 and an end-date 2015-06-16
2. The created event has a start-date 2015-06-11 and an end-date 2015-06-15.

Please note that this isn't related to bug #1437305 which discribes a visualization bug in the monthly view.

I have a similar issue. I've created an all day event for example on 04.11.15 which should be repeated yearly. But when I look in Nov. 2016 there is no event, but on 04.10.16 there it is. I'm using calendar 0.4.711 with Ubuntu 15.04(r26) on my Aquaris E4.5.
