The phone rebooting annoyed the heck out of me on the VX4400
until I figured out how to avoid it.  Basically if you send
command 0x00, then you end up having to reboot.

To be honest, I don't think that makes any difference at
all, other than QCDMG is supported on all phones, not just
LG.

Ok, merging it in now.  One question I have is if you are sure
exactly the same code works on the VX1 as implied by the
comment?

You also moved the code that fills in entry back in the 
main loop.  What was wrong with the extractphonebookentry
function?  (It did have a bug in that there was no return
statement :-) I made it use that function again.  Of particular
note is that it fills in the serials.  These are needed if
you don't want to lose speed and voice dials.

I have dumped all the groups code in the phonebook.  The groups,
ringtones and wallpaper stuff from the phone will need to update
the UI at some point, so a list of relevant choices can be made
to the user.  "relevant" will depend on what is built into the
phone, and what it can be extended with (eg new ringtones, new
groups).
