Abstract
A first database is synchronized with a second database, wherein the first database is located in a mobile terminal. To avoid erroneous synchronization results that can occur if a timer associated with the mobile terminal is changed, relative to a timer associated with the second database, an indicator is set to indicate that a full synchronization should be performed whenever it is detected that the timer in the mobile terminal has been set back. Then, when synchronization is to take place, full synchronization of the first database with the second database is performed if the indicator is set. Otherwise, a fast synchronization that uses a change log may be performed. The indicator may be in the form of a change in a database identifier.
