Have you tried command 0x06?  DataPilot sent it a LOT to the
4400, but it didn't seem necessary to me.

No need to apologise.  It isn't my phone being rebooted :-)

I thought I hadn't spotted someone saying the same code 
worked on the VX1.  I would like a large number of phones
to work, and it got my hopes up :-)

My intention is to move the getphonebook code in com_lg rather than
have seperate versions in each phone specific code.  When you see
how long the code is for saving a phonebook, you will understand
why :-)  

Originally the extract code was a huge list of manipulating bytes
which is significantly shorter due to the new description stuff.

The serials are relevant when writing.  They cause an existing 
entry to be overwritten rather than a new one to be created.
On the 4400, the voice dials and speeddials index to a serial
number so if you create an identical entry but with a different
serial, you lose those dials.

Are you sure the serial returned from the next entry command
is actually needed?  The 4400 also had that field, but it
isn't used anywhere.

(We could also solve this by moving the extract function
call to after the next entry response is received).
