Perhaps
<string name="pref_language_default_value" translatable="false">device</string>
should be translatable?

<string name="pref_sync_fblink" translatable="false">pref_sync_fblink</string>
<string name="pref_sync_fblink_title">Add link to Facebook</string>
<string name="pref_sync_fblink_summary">Add a link to Facebook to event descriptions.</string>
<string name="pref_sync_fblink_summary">Add a link to event description on Facebook.</string>

Not quite sure about this. Where is the comment made, and what is it about?

It's in the "Configure Sync Preferences" menu. When the option is checked, it will append a link to the event on facebook.com to the event description, so your change is incorrect. I realize the original string is a little awkward, I don't know how to express it better.

Thanks for the improvements!

Regarding the pref_language_default_value, it's intentionally untranslatable, it's an internal string for configuration that does not appear in the UI.

These are the actual calendar names as displayed in the phone calendar, which I'm not sure if I want to change at this point (although I'm grateful that you came up with shorter names :-) ).

There's a plan for one of the next releases to allow users to customize the calendar names, so I think that will be a good point to rename the calendars, but for now let's keep the originals please.

<string name="nav_configure_calendars">Configure Calendars</string>
<string name="nav_configure_sync">Configure Sync</string>
<string name="nav_sync_logs">Sync Logs</string>
<string name="nav_sync_logs" comment="(Verb) Synchronize the logs">Sync Logs</string>

This is actually exactly the wrong meaning – it's the noun. Clicking on this navigation bar entry shows those logs.

<string name="pref_reminder_0minutes_entry">Right away</string>
<string name="pref_reminder_0minutes_value" translatable="false">0</string>
<string name="pref_reminder_5minutes_entry">5 minutes</string>
<string name="pref_reminder_5minutes_entry">Five minutes</string>

I'd argue that using words instead of numbers here makes the menu more cluttered and more difficult to read. It's not prose, but just a settings menu 😉
