I accidentally deleted some entries from the db_notify database (aka notify queue) with remover and now I can't Activesync w/ my USB cradle. Luckily, I can still AS with IR and ethernet. Short of a hard reset, is there anyway to recover from this?

Am no expert in this, but according to my knowledge, db_notify_queue only has entries of the upcoming notification and it can't have anything to do with the AS. Are you sure anything else is not misconfigured?

overall, the db_notify database does have entries for upcoming events, but it also has entries for activesync:

the other option is if someone could send me their db_notify database and could also send me instructions on how to overwrite the one I have, i think that might fix my AS problems.

i was able to use Pocket dbExplorer from Phatware to export a clean "DB_notify_events" from my other PDA and import it to my Toshiba. After I reset it, those events, plus all the upcoming ones from my calendar, were entered into that database.
