I can only suggest how I would have gone for such a calendar. By the UI it is clear that it has to come as a pop-up or to better say a dialog. Now you have to google the opensource calendars if any or just using the calendar API provided by java you can get the calendar for a month year etc. and move it across previous month by normal java function calls.

Now that you have got the data to populate in your calendar. You have to design a custom layout xml create ~30-40 boxes or a grid with dynamic textviews or a webview with <table>, <tr>, <td> the choice is completely yours.

AFAIK

If you can't find anything opensource then I would suggest you should do these things by the suggested approach.
