Copying calendar and address book to/from flip phone



I have a TCL Flip 2 phone (model 4058G). I've just switched to this phone, having gone through a few phones to find one I like. And, of course, my calendar and address book are lost each time. I've been able to hook up a USB cable to the phones and access pictures and music files, but apparently the calendar and address book are hidden someplace secret. On the older phones, I was able to configure the USB port as mass storage and just copy files back and forth, but I don't see that option on this phone. However, I found the gmtp utilitiy, which is able to look through the phone and copy picture and music files using MTP. However, I see no filesystem entries for the calendar and address book. Is there a way to access these files, or are they customarily hidden in a restricted area?

I'm running Debian Bookworm (12.11) on an Intel Core i5-4690.

I tried plugging my phone into my wife's Macbook, but got nowhere there either.
