    It is possible, but Meizu would have to do that.
    And since you are the only person I ever heard talking about this, I would say you should try to live with the current calendar.

    I asked the same before.
    Calendar starting on monday

    I didn't find anything useful, so my calendar is still starting on Sunday.
    Please let me know if you have a solution.

    I hate calendars starting on Sunday

    Good Luck

    I haven't even noticed that the calendar starts on Sunday, but I want my calendar to start on Monday, too. Seriously, no serious calendar starts on Sunday, that's just wrong...

    Officially, our week starts at Sunday...
    But indeed, there aren't many calendars that start on Sunday

    M8 calendar is very, very rudimental. No time periods, no option to repeat fortnightly. No week overview. List view is sorted oldest appointment first (wtf?) and cannot be changed. No cleanup for elapsed appointments. I could go on endlessly - it's a bit disappointing for the year 2010.
    Let's hope for Android to come to M8...

    I also don't like when you set the reminder to alert 1 day before the event, there's no way to tell from the notification that if it's for today or tomorrow...

    It isn´t wrong. A week has 7 days and sunday is the first one. So it´s just another point of view to start with sunday instead of monday.

    The calendar is buggy.
    Say: I have an appointment at 13.00.
    If i set the timezone from +8 to +1, my appointment sets itself to 6.00(wtf?). I really don't get that.
    And sometimes some appointment randomly bleeps on my phone, it was supposed to bleep two or three days later, i don't get that.
    I want Android

    I have troubles with alertes on the calendar too. It ring even if I don't set-up an alerte. Not great with a birthday, which ring on midnight.

    A Calendar is one of the most important basic programs of a smart phone. Too bad that Meizu still has not developed it to a barely usable version.
    The real bad thing is that I didnt find any other professional calendar to use.

    Too bad Meizu choose for wince.
    Guess they underestimated all the programming a bit...
    Android would have been the best option, too bad it wasn't so popular at that time...
    Calendar is really buggy, alarm also.
    Proof from my own experience:
    I set the alarm at 18.00.
    At 18.00 the alarm bleeps, i did not have much time to do something, so i rescheduled it at 19.00.(same alarm)
    At 19.00, nothing, not even a single bleep, nothing.
    Another bug i guess...

    I just don't trust the alarms anymore...
