the one thing i have not done, i am doing now is, i am currently trying to sync all the data to another phone that is cleanly flashed.

also, i am restoring the communications and calendar from one of my backups on the device i use in hopes that after that, it will replace the db file and then allow me to replace all the data on the device.


i will report back if either it is the device, proven by syncing data to another one, or if there is something wrong on my pc.
