Hi all,
I am running the experimental debs from
http://www.in.fh-merseburg.de/~jahn the version is 0.18+svn20060613-1.2
on dapper.
I was having a series of issues with my new nokia 6280 (fw 3.81) where
by it would dump everything, but as soon as the phone started to receive
data it would "reboot" itself. In the end I decided I didn't have
enough time to continue to play with it and left it, with the plan of
trying again soon.
Today I decided to grab my old SE v600i (aka k600i/k608i) as I have bt
dongle (phone doesn't support obex syncml over usb. The first time I
tried
syncml-obex-client -b AA:11:BB:22:CC:33 7 --sync vcard Contacts
The handset froze with an error about the sync failing, and had to have
the battery taken out of it.
I thought oh maybe it wants wbxml, so I gave it a good dose of wbxml
syncml-obex-client -b AA:11:BB:22:CC:33 7 --sync vcard Contacts --wbxml
The result? I bricked my gf's phone :( Same as above but now it
whitescreens on start up, goes black and then just sits there.
I am posting it here to warn people with Sony Ericsson v600i/k600i/k608i
to be aware of what the possible outcomes of using opensync with their
phone is. I am well aware of clause 11 of the GPL or 15 of the LGPL
(which ever applies here) but I never thought I could brick a phone by
using syncml over bt.
I am off to the service center tomorrow to see what can be done. I will
let people know after I get the handset back. Maybe it is just a
strange coincidence.
Cheers
Dave
