Sounds silly but have you deleted the calender app in app switcher and all
other apps for that matter and restarted your phone? If all else fails delete
from me memory and restart iOS device in my opinion.

For those using BT headsets on their Macs, something that might help in this

ssh is encrypted so the actual data going between two boxes is binary.
In some respects the whole binary/text thing has gone away as very few
data formats can live with just ascii characters, so sftp defaults to
binary. In reality the text mode of FTP was just a cheat to save on how
