pdaPhoneHome.com Archive - Wireless Sync problem

When trying to synchronize my smartphone (Samsung i600) with my MSOutlook through Verizon Wireless's Wireless Sync, the calendar on the phone was deleted. Apparently, one needs to open the calendar feature at least once before performing a wireless sync.

pdaPhoneHome.com Archive - Wireless Sync problem: "Well, according to a VZW FAQ or User manual (don't remember which) you need to open the calendar app at least once on your treo before installing wireless sync. Did you do that? Apparently opening it, cause some file to be created that is needed by wireless sync. If the file isn't there, wireless sync will fail. Not sure if this is the problem. Hope it helps."
