[Bitpim-devel] VX7000 users please test

[Roger Binns]

The VX7000 has a mode where it likes to return -1 as the number of
phonebook entries and similar garbage. It seems to do this once
incomplete phonebook reads happen (eg an exception in BitPim caused
a premature end to iterating entries). I have figured out a way
of being able to deal with -1 if needs be.

However it does seem that the phone is well behaved. Please do
the following:

- Reboot your phone (this makes the state normal)
- Get the phonebook repeatedly and feel free to do anything
in the filesystem view.

The idea is to see if it ever reverts to returning -1 for
the number of phonebook entries. I am hoping it won't.

BTW don't worry about the phone number types being wrong
or the wallpaper and ringtones picking up random names.

I'm not sure what the pattern is, but sometimes i get the -1 and sometimes i
get the following. At the moment, i'm unable to get the -1 to happen. I'll
try to approach this scientifically and see if i can figure out if there's
any rhyme or reason to it.

Also, i haven't been able to "cvs up" today.. i get "[update aborted]: end

Also, i haven't been able to "cvs up" today..

You need to pick up my updates otherwise you won't get very
far.

i get "[update
aborted]: end
of file from server (consult above messages if any)" .. Does this happen
with SourceForge sometimes?

They do that to limit the load on the anonymous servers. You just
have to keep trying until it works.
