Hi everyone,
I'm the owner of a new Pro and just stumbled upon these Forums. Sorry in advance for these newbie questions. I tried to search around and found a few partial solutions. But I wonder if you could give me some advice that's better than the work-arounds I've tried.
The Calendar is the most important function, besides calling, that I need for this phone. It's been a huge disappointment. My Treo, and to a certain extent, my LGEnv3 have a better calendar.
My questions are:
1. The calendar notification happens just once, and the ring is very faint. I maxxed my volume. I also paid for the Nudnik app; this app helps, but it seems to crash often. Does anyone have any better suggestions?
2. There's a minor irritation when I enter the time for a new event. Say I want to put the start time of 3:30 pm. I know I have the option of hitting the +/- keys, but I'd rather type "3:30" rather than hit the +/- all the way. But, to actually type the time, I have to first hit the backspace key to delete the existing time, then hit the alt key twice (the default is character, not numeric!) to get to the numbers. That's a lot of extra keystrokes. I know it's a minor thing, but I can enter the same info in my Treo in about a third of the time. I downloaded the Calendar Pad app, but it just appears to be a cosmetic shell to the stock app. Does anyone have any advice... even if there's a way to reset the default to numeric?
Thanks!
