Delete My Documents\bitpim\wallpaper

This error occurs because XP helpfully dumps some extra files
in the directory without me asking (specifically thumbs.db).
Bitpim then falls over trying to read it.

Fixed in 0.5

This is because whatever you told bitpim is a com port isn't a
com port. Change it in Edit -> Settings. You need to restart
bitpim for it to pick up the new setting.

On Windows 98/ME:

Control Panel -> System -> Device Manager

Scroll down to Ports (COM and LPT)

Look for one labelled USB to Serial Port

On Windows 2000/XP:

Control Panel -> System -> Hardware -> Device Manager

Scroll down to Ports (COM & LPT)

Look for one labelled Prolific USB-to-Serial Comm Port



I use the Radio Shack cable which uses the prolific drivers. Other vendors
cables will have different names, but they should be similar.

Restart bitpim after selecting com4.

If you still get access denied then Windows doesn't want you to use that
port. You may need to be administrator or power user or something.
It may also have been grabbed by another program such as Palm sychronizer.

Does anyone know any ringer sites?

Hi,

I'm interested in trying to port Bit-PIM to the VX10. Has anybody started this effort? Where do I begin?

My background:

- 25+ years hardware, firmware, and software development
- C, assembler, BASIC programmer; also FORTRAN and PL/1 (years ago!)
- performing musician well versed in MIDI data formats
- design engineer/consultant by day

Regards,

-BW

You are the first :-) Do you want to do your work on
Windows or Linux?

bitpim is written in Python which is a simple object oriented
programming language.

Choose view on this:

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/bitpim/bitpim/com_lgvx4400.py

Look through the whole file and decide if you would understand
enough to make minor tweaks. There are several tutorials at
http://www.python.org/doc/Newbies.html

That will come in VERY handy when I move onto enhancing the
ringtone stuff. I am going to need to convert files to
type 0 format, figure out how long they are, and chop
the file to start and end at certain points.
