Help Calendarstorage failure keeps force closing i cannot use my fone

Hi,

When I turned on my phone this morning I noticed it was vibrating more than usual (normally a pulse or 2 when it wakes up completely). I checked only to find that I had an error message "The application Calendar Storage (process com.android.providers.calendar) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." with the only option "Force close". First try was to force close it, the screen blinked and 10 seconds later I had the same error. Next step was a restart (turn off the phone and turn it back on), same error even before the media scanning was completed. My last attempt before resorting to the internet was to pop the battery and try again, same result.

My searches have turned up the fact that this error happens often enough, and has a really simple fix, go clear the calendar cache. Unfortunately that's not possible. I have a widget running that shows a clock with my schedule for the day, thus this calls the calendar as soon as it starts up. I tried to remove it, but the error appears so fast I don't even get a chance to select the widget, never mind drag it to trash.

So, any suggestions what I might be able to do?
 
If you can't get the phone to turn on properly and get to the clear the cache, unfortunately your next step is to do a Factory restore by doing the three button recovery mode.
