Not sure without more information. ActiveSync is definitely  
bidirectional, and is working fine. The symptoms you describe could be  
caused by some misconfiguration possibly related to the default  
calendar / sync preferences in horde. You should also check that when  
you create the new event on your device, you are actually creating it  
under the account that is synced to Horde (this has bitten even me a  
few times on some clients).

What client are you using on the phone? Are there any errors showing  
in the Horde log, or the ActiveSync log?

Not easily or directly from the phone, no. On the phone's client you  
might be able to move existing events from your local phone account to  
the horde account one by one; or if the client allows exporting its  
event database as an iCalendar file, you could then import that into  
Horde's interface...but ActiveSync accounts are always separate  
accounts on the client.

Yeah, nothing I can really suggest here without more information.  I  
assume you have enabled the imap log in imp/config/backend.local.php?
