Got my Droid Incredible Friday and still learning it, but couldn't find the answers to these 2 questions I have:

- I use calendar reminders a lot, but I can't find a way for it not to make a tone/noise when it pops. I just want it to vibrate the phone, not make noise or it'll drive me nuts as I have lots of reminders popping all day. On my Blackberry if a progam had an automatic noise to it, I could at least turn the default volume for that noise to '0'. Any way to do that here?

And another unrelated question - I took my sd card out of my Blackberry Storm1 and the DInc reads it fine, but when I look at the list of my video files, there are no names, just thumbnails. And most of the movie files thumbnails are like the Paramount logo, so i have no idea which movie it is. How can I see the titles?

Thanks!
 
For Calendar Reminder settings go Calendar>Menu>More>Settings>Reminder settings. Not sure how to fix the Movie problem. You also might want to take a look at Jorte which is a replacement calendar app which is much more functional then the native app. You may have to use Astro or OI File Manager to rename the files after you determine which is which.
 
In the Calendar settings, for ringtones there's no option for 'none'. I do want it to give me an alert and to vibrate, but just not to make noise every time. I see no option to do that. Was there something I missed?
 
You may want to search for or create a "blank ringtone" and choose that. It would have the effect you're looking for.
 
That did cross my mind about a very low volume or silent ringtone. Anything like that in the market?
 
Videos: long press on a thumbnail to pull up the menu. The file name will be at the top of the dialogue box.

Thanks. I did see that already, but it's cumbersome to have to long press every file to see what the heck it is. Just wondering if there's a view (or an app that shows a view) with the file names so you can more quickly find what you're looking for...
 
Not to thread jack, but I have a similar question:

I turned off the LED notification via the main settings. However, the damn thing still blinks when I have a new email. And looking in the email settings, there's not LED option that shows up. Anyone have any thoughts?
