      Subject: vx6100 phonebook problems

      I get a IntegrityCheckFailed error when attempting to transfer my =
vx6100 phonebook to my computer. I am using Bitpim 0.9.10-official
      Everthing else works fine. Please help!
      Below is the Bitpim help section resolution for my problem. Is =
there a workaround for this, for I have over 240 entries and would hate =
to think that I have to reenter all of them. The last paragraph mentions =
deleting entries that have duplicate serial numbers and to delete all =
but one of the entries. How do I go about obtaining the list of serial =
numbers?
      =
_________________________________________________________________________=

      I get an IntegrityCheckFailed exception on my LG phone
      LG phones store their phonebook data in a way that makes it easy =
to synchronise and in particular tell if an entry is new or just =
changed. It does this by attaching a unique serial number to an entry. =
If you edit the entry, this number remains the same. If you create a new =
entry then it assigns a new number.=20

      For example if you change an entry name from "Lauren Smith" to =
"Lauren Jones" and a work phone number (such as if they got married and =
a new job) then sync software can tell it is the same person and not a =
new entry. Sync software can also tell when entries have been removed. =
This also helps distinguish people. For example you may know two people =
named Tom Jones and sync software can the difference between there being =
two people or one person whose details get changed.=20

      The numbers are allocated by the phone, starting from one. Erasing =
all your entries does not reset it back to one.=20

      There is some sync software (notably that used in Verizon stores) =
that does not talk to the phone correctly. It transfers entries to the =
phone, but doesn't do so correctly and leaves the phone with entries =
with a higher serial number than the next one the phone will hand out to =
software that does synchronize properly.=20

      Later on, as other software such as BitPim does correctly sync =
with the phone, the phone allocates new serial numbers that overlap =
those of entries already on the phone. You then end up with multiple =
entries with the same serial number.=20

      When reading from the phone, BitPim will detect when entries have =
the same serial number, list which ones they are and refuse to read the =
phonebook into BitPim since the data on your phone is corrupt.=20

      In order to recover you must erase the phonebook on the phone =
using the phone menus to do so. You can do this by doing Settings & =
Tools, System, Security, (your lock code is the last 4 digits of your =
phone number by default), Erase Contacts.=20

      You will want to make sure you have written down or have all your =
contacts information in BitPim or some other program. You can also get =
some data from your phone. When BitPim lists entries with duplicate =
serial numbers, delete all but one of the entries. Repeat this until the =
phoneback can be successfully read and then reenter the entries you =
erased into BitPim. Erase the phonebook on the phone and then sync from =
BitPim.=20

      Thanks for responding,

      Mike b.
