Weird. This could be a gnokii problem, because the error message is given=20
to KnokiiSync from libgnokii. I will see if I can backup my phone and=20
erase it's memory.

Wild guess:
The name "A" is not in a valid format. The previous name you had on the=20
phone in position 001 propably wasn't in a proper format either and you=20
propably double-clicked the entry and changed it to your likings.=20

So, KnokiiSync checks if there is a name "override" for entry 001 in the=20
configuration file, and found the previous one. It normally should=20
"understand" that the entry has changed, but I don't know why it didn't.

If I'm correct, open .knokiisyncrc. You should see a section:

[Entry_001_XXXXXXXXXXXX]

where XXXXXXXXXXXXXX is your phone's IMEI.
If there is an option "InPhone=3D", what is it?

This is expected behaviour. It simply says that entry 1 is empty. In=20
0.3.x, there will be an option to "hide" all these problematic entries=20
(those whose "position" is "***").

I know this too, I had problems getting the group type of entries. I will=20
speak about this with Pawel Kot, and see if we come up with anything.

Please post this in the gnokii mailing list, it's a problem of libgnokii.

No problem, like I said, it happens to me all the time :-)
