[BitPim-devel] Get Info Feature and LG 6100?

[John O'Shaughnessy]

Is Get Info expected to work across phone types yet?

In case you are collecting info, it crashes on the LG VX-6100 and also
requires a phone reboot before BitPim can successfully communicate with the
phone. Error messages attached.

I think it may have been my fault for picking the name 'getphoneinfo' for the new Phone Info Dialog. I did not realize that these routines already exist in com_lg and com_sanyo and are not fully compatible with the Phone Info Dialog. I'll change the new method name from getphoneinfo to get_phone_info to avoid problems.

It would be equally acceptable to rename or remove getphoneinfo from
com_lg and com_sanyo. I think it is just some legacy test routine in
com_lg and it's in com_sanyo because I plagarized.

It can definitely be removed from com_lg.

Actually it was originally intended for getting phone info just
as Joe is implementing. Ultimately it didn't work however and
wasn't used any more.

I would much rather it is removed in favour of the new routines
rather than have very similarly named functions doing confusing
overlapping things. (We always have CVS if anyone wants to see
old code).

I'll take care of the changes.
