N900
2011 Scoda Octavia 1.6 tdi with Bolero mp3 system

Before: I couldn`t access my phone book
After the patch: Excellent! I can now see my phone book on the head unit!

Thank you sooo much. one of the most useful updates ever on this forum!!!

somehow it is now broken.....i can see my address book just fine but whenever I make calls I cannot hear the caller on the cars speakers, it used to work just fine....oh well

Have you tried to adjust the volume on the N900 when it is connected via bluetooth, as there are different volume settings for headphones, speakers, bluetooth etc... it may be that you have accidently turned the volume down for the bluetooth mixer.

With release 0.37 phonebook works fine on my Renault scenic xmod, but it doesn't work well for the calls log (history). In received, missed, answered calls i have the first 10 voices of the phone book.
Let me know how i can do to help to understand what's happened...

Works like a charm on Seat Ibiza 6J (and probably some other Seat models)! What I have not testet yet: SIM contacts since I don't have any and the call log.
Thanks a lot!!

I would love to have this also on N9/N950. How much modification it would require?

In my Renault XMOD is working fine for Phone book, how can i understand if is working in PBAP or in IrMC mode?

You have to enable debug mode for obexd and start sysklogd
Then you can find in /var/log/syslog something like:
Jul 12 03:01:34 Nokia-N900 obexd[1676]: src/obex.c:cmd_connect() Selected driver: Phonebook Access server

Be sure to do it only when you know what are you doing. As keeping sysklogd enabled is definately bad idea.

Just out of curiousity: how to enable debug mode for obexd?
(did not find in /etc/obex or /etc/bluetooth)

And I have syslog on all the time, what do you think is problematic?

#dpkg -L obexd
...
/usr/share/dbus-1/services/obexd.service

#cat /usr/share/dbus-1/services/obexd.service
[D-BUS Service]
Name=org.openobex
Exec=/usr/lib/obex/obexd --nodaemon --debug='*' --symlinks --root .obex-root --root-setup /usr/bin/obex-root-setup --capability '!/usr/bin/gen-obex-capability.sh'

Ops, I'm debugging it right now You have little bit different output as I'm experimenting with obex 0.45. But the main idea is to add --debug='*'. Maybe "*" is too but I didn't invest my time to learn what should be there instead of "*".

BTW "/usr/lib/obex/obexd --help" should also give you some overview.

IMHO syslog slowers N900 and also peridical write isn't very good for the device. But if you know what are you doing (properly set syslog.conf, ...) It's ok. Anyway default syslog config *.* to /var/log/syslog isn't good option.
