The first line contains all the default settings from my test device which is an 8700g with the 4.2 OS software. The latter lines are the defaults with only the option shown enabled. The highlighted numbers in the rows show which number controls the setting in that row.

Keep in mind that this may be different from what you see depending upon your device type and OS version, however I suspect they would be similar if not the same for the same OS version.

Next: Calendar, Address Book, and Tasks options database settings.
