METHOD FOR SYNCHRONIZING A DATABASE BETWEEN A COMMUNICATION TERMINAL AND SERVER

摘要

A method for synchronizing a database between a communication terminal and a server is provided to keep user data stored in the communication terminal before initial database synchronization by separately storing the latest user data to the communication terminal in the initial synchronization and inputting the stored user data to the synchronized database after the initial synchronization. The communication terminal checks whether a received synchronization command is an initial synchronization command by detecting an update ID from a communication terminal database and/or a server database(S22). If the received synchronization command is the initial synchronization command, the previously stored user data is stored to a separate memory, and the communication terminal database and the server database are synchronized(S24). The user data stored in the separate memory is inputted to the database of the communication terminal after the synchronization(S25). The update ID is the last anchor of a SyncML(Synchronized Markup Language) standard.
