Sprint Mobile Sync

[nesta17]

On the Sprint website I see in the features list of the Touch Pro that Sprint Mobile Sync is listed.

Has anyone been able to get this up and running on a Touch Pro? I don't have the option when I sign into my Sprint account.

I would love to get this feature up and running.

It syncs your contacts on your phone to the Sprint server. Keeps them safe and sound for you. If you lose your phone when you activate your new phone it automatically downloads your stored online contacts onto your new phone.

Mobile Sync is the ability to backup some of your PIM information to the sprint website. It's also used to create group names and lists for DC calling. I don't think, however, it's compatible with Windows Mobile phones. I double checked this by going to sprint.com/downloads and seeing if the mogul or the touch have this option. It could be a mistake or it might be that they're about to release a windows mobile client, which would be nice, but kind of pointless seeing that there are several other ota methods to backup data and are free.

If you're a student you can check whether your university has an agreement with Microsoft for an exchangelabs account

Here's a tutorial that explains how to do it with mail2web and 2 phones
