vx9400 change default calendar settings

I just upgraded from the e815 to the vx9400, and I'm very much enjoying this phone.

I use the calendar a LOT. (Indeed, I use my phone as a calendar/alarm clock much more than as a phone) One of the small annoyances that I can't seem to change is the default calendar settings. The default is to ring 15min before the event, and to use ringer 2.

I want my phone to use a different ringer and ring at a different time, (to go off 30min before an event, and use the "low beeps once" ringer, for instance), but this means having to change it for every entry I put in the phone. It's just a big hassle, and I'm trying to streamline my calendar entry.

Using BitPim or a similar program to transfer the data wouldn't be all that useful either, since I'm always inputting the info on the go.

I tried searching but didn't find any relevant posts. I'm honestly not sure how to express what I'm searching for to a search engine.

Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

The phone, or at least that part of its VZW software, is unfortunately just not robust enough to allow for something like that or much of any other calendar or the like manipulation really.

I'm sorry, but I didn't really understand your post...

The calendar on the phone and the software that is installed on the phone in general just really doesn't allow for a lot of customizations beyond the limited functionalities that are already included, so it's doubtful you'll be able to do what you described.

Oh. That sucks.

I'm not terribly surprised, though...
