[BitPim-devel] Phonebook issue with motorola v3m

[Jim Wilson]

Hi,

Using 0.9.12 on fc6 (Fedora) with a v3m phone, it appears that the phone is always responding
with the string "ERROR" any time a command attempts to access speed dial 1 in the phone book.

Addoing an entry in bitpim that accidently had a 1 in the speed dial column produced an unexpected exception" which I'd be
glad to send along, but this issue is easy enough for the user to avoid.

The bug that is hard to avoid shows up when downloading the phonebook. Since the bitpim is downloading phone entries in chunks
of 10, the phone's "ERROR" response to "AT+MPBR=1,10" means that NONE of the single digit speed dial entries
(2 ~ 9) are downloaded.

As far as I know there's no way to change speeddial 1 off voicemail for this phone, or
to get it to stop being so protective of slot 1, so it'd probably be most helpful to
either have a way to set bitpim to start at 2, or have it try "AT+MBPR=2,10" rather than
jumping a whole block of 10 when an ERROR string is returned.

Below is the important segment of the log in case my description is not sufficient.

Thanks,

Jim

Following is a patch that fixes the getphonebook issue that posted to the list yesterday. The comment on line 293 should explain
the patch with no change in behavior for phones
without this issue.

Can any other users confirm this problem on the V3m. I did not see
it on the V710, on which code the other moto phones are based.
