Yes, the Samsung SCH-A310 does just that: its Diagnostic Mode (DM) is broken.

For get/set calendar entries: No.  For phonebook entries: no with a limitation (at least with the Verizon one): you won't be able to get/set uploaded-ringer ID assignments.  In other words, if you upload a ringtone to your phone and assign it to one or more phonebook entries, BITPM won't be able to maitain that information (it works fine with builtin ringtones).  Who knows, the Telus ones may not have that limiation.  Furthermore, you won't be able to upload/download ringers or wallpapers to/from your phone using BITPIM w/o entering DM.
