[Announce] Bluetooth PBAP and IrMC / Carkit support is coming to N900... [Archive] - Page 2 - maemo.org

I used the latest problem of PBAP and can't get it working correctly, though the basic function seems to be working fine.

I'm trying it with my German Mercedes W203 which has a Kenwood BT60U (http://www.kenwood.de/products/car/receivers/cdreiver/KDC-BT60U/) installed. The radio is using a real good working Parrot Bluetooth module which has tons of options and even supports Bluetooth audio (A2DP) and a lot of other functions.

Yesterday I tried to get PBAP running and installed the two suggested .deb files, after I restarted phone I connected it via BT to the BT60U. It is showing "Downloading..." now and the section "Phone book" appears. When I select it I see one single phone number and a lot of empty entries with no number/name at all, though I can select them.

The following BT formats are supported: HFP, HSP, SPP, PBAP, OPP, SYNC, A2DP, AVRCP. Maybe something is conflicting with each other?

Anyone has an idea why it is receiving only a single number and shows all other contacts without name / number?

@crogge
It probably receives only a single number because it stops after this first number...

please follow the other suggestions on the wiki page about getting log information about the bluetooth traffic. That information may show you what is going on and might help you to resolve your problem.

Got this working mostly ok with porsche PCM in new 2011 Cayman.

Only thing that is not working correctly is fetching the last received/dialed numbers, the lists are populated but the contents seem quite random and there are numbers there that I'm pretty sure I've never dialed with this phone.

But anyways as the phonebook part itself is working, it's good enough for me, so thanks again for this!

hi

have installed both .deb files via root, but the n900 still doesnt sync contacts with my dension gateway500 i would like to post report but not sure what i need to do to get log files off n900. to confirm it works great with my GF's iphone 3gs.

i noticed in the old thread, member crsnwby has the same set up in his a6, tried to message him to see if he got it working but i dont have required permissions. if someone on here who nows him could message him to let me know if there is a workaround it would appreciated.

thanks for the great work guys

just in case anyone is wondering, this method works with sending contact info to the Blueant Q2 Bluetooth. Now when someone calls my n900 the Bluetooth announces the name :)

Followed the instructions and it worked perfectly for my car bluetooth kit (Opel Insignia Navi 800)!!
For the less experienced (as myself)just take care where you place the .deb files, if you put them in the N900 root folder (using the file manager), be aware that in the x-terminal it is called home/user/MyDocs !!!

I don't see much from the hcidump. There are some PBAP messages and some sort of 'telecom' request but now actual transfer of data.
Maybe you can try getting some obexd logging using the obexd debug mode and syslog logging. See the wiki page for that.

from what I can see your hcidump shows proper PBAP request and replies to your Ford. If the data is correct only you can say...

run
hcidump -t -V -X -r hcidumpfocus

and verify the ascii dump at the end of it as responses to the x-bt/phonebook.
requests.. Then you can tell if the data is correct.

Has anyone tried to get the N900 going with a E46 BMW? (2004-2006 3 series)

I can call people just fine, by manually dialing the number, but the phonebook doesn't transfer.

I've installed the two debs and rebooted the phone, but the phonebook is still empty on the car (turned car off and on, too).

I see there is a new obexd out (0.39). Does anyone have the debian package files that were used to compile the obexd2 debs? Or can the guy that made the debs on the wiki recompile for the latest version?

Hy,

My car is a Ford Focus with CD6000 Radio.

The app works, but I have several problems.

1.) The most contacts will only displayed as phone numbers, not as their contact name.
2.) The names are not in order.

Can anyone help? - Have you the same problem?

Also there is a problem with the outgoing/incoming/missed list.
These lists are transmitted, but there are names in, with whom I have long had no contact. Moreover, these seem to be randomly taken from the phonebook. By the way, the names in outgoing, incoming and missed, are all the same.

cheers

i've got it! special thanks to mirakles!!!

i read out my hcidump file and verify the ascii dump with the hcidump -t -V -X -r command...

now my results:
i find out that all VCards 2.1 requested and transferred correct.
ok, then i looked at the bodywork of all VCards and find out, that only contacts with a specific bodywork display the name on the radio.

the false bodywork:
BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:2.1
UID:593
REV:2010-01-28T19:06:25Z
N:;Max;;;
TEL;VOICE:0123456789
END:VCARD

the right bodywork:
BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:2.1
UID:593
REV:2010-01-28T19:06:25Z
TEL;VOICE:0123456789
N:;Max;;;
END:VCARD

it is obvisouly essential that the Name Part of the vcard is at the end!!

so, i revise all my vcards like the right one and ALL contacts were displayed as there name... i am very happy now :D

one downer lasts:
outgoing/incoming/missed are transmitted, but there are names in, with whom I have long had no contact. Moreover, these seem to be randomly taken from the phonebook. By the way, the names in outgoing, incoming and missed, are all the same.

but this doesn't matter, the principal thing that the radio show names work!!

Here are the latest version of the libopenobex2 and obexd2 packages (also see the wiki page mentioned on post 1 of this thread for further instructions).

This is probably the most upstream version of obexd we can use. Newer versions of upstream obexd need a newer version of the evolution-addressbook server.

I'll try to get the libopenobex2 and obexd2 into the CSSU in the near future.

Has anyone attempted to upgrade N900's Bluez stack to a version that would support the phonebook access AT commands (At+cpbr, at+cpbs) and so on via the HFP profile? My Seat Ibiza's car kit does not support PBAP or IrMC, unfortunately.

as far as i know bluez does not support these at commands. I'm played with the latest bluez and it runs on my n900 but do'nt know if it breaks anything...

I did add some of the at commands, but the cpbr and cpbs are a bit (to) complicated for now.

Hello everyone,

I installed the packages as instructed in the wiki, and it works fine with my JVC stereo, I have added that to the wiki.

But now I can't install packages anymore. The error is:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
mp-fremantle-generic-pr: Depends: obexd (= 0.18-0maemo6+0m5) but 0.18-0maemo5+0m5 is to be installed

I'm not very much into aptitude stuff (I'm more into Gentoo), so: what's wrong here and how can I fix it?

Thanks
Thomas

Hm, i had the problem the other way around. mamoe5 was installed but it wanted meamo6. I think I fixed it by removing the obexd package with dpkg -r obexd (maybe with som force option or so) an then apt-get install obexd again...

I found this http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-bluetooth/msg04638.html

and some other hints by googling "phonebook functions for bluez". Those threads are from 2005, though. I guess you'd need to integrate them to the addressbook and all that for it to work on N900 though...

Yes I have seen these patches in the past. From that I added some other AT commands, but implementing the phonebook commands for the n900 is quite different that from this patch.

Oh, I noticed something. Apparently PC suite support has broken at some point. I can no longer sync with Outlook. Doesn't work either with PCSuite 7.1 or Ovi Suite 3.0.

I'm not sure if this was caused by using your patched .debs. However, I can't verify this as when I try to follow the downgrading instructions, the ones in wiki seem to be for PR 1.2 or something. Anyway, simply using apt-get install --reinstall obexd libopenobex1 and rebooting causes the situation where no obex daemon is running at all. What's the proper uninstallation procedure for PR 1.3?

Zarhan

2011-03-19, 21:05

Ok, I was able to fix the issue - all I had to do was to remove the obexd2.service file from dbus directory.

Anyway, doesn't look like the cause is the PBAP-enabled version - my PC suite is still broken (in a weird fashion where I can e.g. see files but not SMS messages and so on). Time to look elsewhere for the solution.

I have Seat Leon MK2 (I believe 2005+ model). I have also been trying to get this to work for some time with no luck. So I suspect what your saying applies to my model as well and that the bluetooth module used does not support PBAP or IrMC.

Can I ask how you discovered that PBAP support is missing and that AT commands are needed as I would like to run the same tests to verify this with my model.

I did at some point get an hcidump but never got around to uploading it. Is this visible in the hcidump?

Thanks

I have tried to implement "AT+CPBS" and "AT+CPBR" but I am not very familiar with the bluez code structure. I thought I had added a callback to get the phone to reply to an AT+CPBS call with a default list of phonebooks but the phone still returns "ERROR" when the car calls the AT command.

mirakels, what commands have you implemented?

The other day I noted that, while I can still access my phone book and dial via my carkit, sound is not transmitted anymore.
I am pretty sure this was introduced by upgrading to power-kernel v47.
Can someone help narrow this problem down and confirm that current obex implementation stopped working with v47?I don't use power-kernel, but obexd is not responsible for sound streaming via bluetooth. This is done purely by bluez.

Hi,

For some reason audio is not transmitted anymore. Phone connects fine with car kit but audio stopped working for some reason.

I could never get phonebook to appear probably because my car kit is not PBAP, but at least I could get audio.

Are there any commands I can use to troubleshoot this? Is this a bluez problem?

Reflektorfalke

2011-10-31, 20:03

cannot be of much help here.
If you run a 'strings obexd' you will see IrMC mentioned.
So it has the code inside. Maybe all you need is to figure out how
obexd is called on the n900 and check if the irmc service is enabled or not
(see the startup options on the maemo obexd wiki page)

Well, if I enter

ps | grep obex

in xTerm, I get this output:

/usr/lib/obex/obexd --nodaemon --opp --ftp --pcsuite --pbap --symlinks --root .obex-root --root-setup /usr/bin/obex-root-setup --capability !/usr/bin/gen-obex-capability.sh

So it seems PBAP is supported while IrMC is not, right?

I can not test IrMC as my carkit (BMW) uses PBAP as far as I understand.

Unfortunately, as I described in the post/thread linked before, contacts are not transferred correctly :-(

Hm, ok I understand how to copy obexd from directory /usr/lib/obex/ on N900 to the very same directory on N9, but how about libopenobex? Where am I supposed to find this file?

Do I only need to replace these files or is there anything else to do? If I want to go back, all I need to do is to do it the other way, right?

It is not that the n9 does not supprot IrMC. It is just that pbap is enabled (--pbap) while irmc is not (there is no --irmc commandline option in your ps output) Adding --irmc should enable IrMC.

As for copying obexd, please first renamen the original obexd so you can easily switch back.
The libopenobexd can be placed in /usr/lib/ Note also the symlinks for libopenobex (see 'ls -l /usr/lib/libopenobex*' )
I guess there is also an libopenobex on the n9 but may be packaged with the obexd package. So please check before copying the n900 one and rename before copying.

You also might try using the libopenobex on the n9 (if it is there) if it is the same major version (e.g. libopenobex.so.2.x)

Regarding libopenobex I checked again, in /usr/lib on N9 I have:

- libopenobex.so.2.0.0

So I assume I also need to copy libopenobex.so.2 and libopenobex.so.2.0.0 from N900 to N9 and create symlinks?
How do I create these symlinks?

In that case you do not need to make a backup of the libopenobex lib. Just copy libopenobex.so.2.0.0 to the n9. Then whilst in /usr/lib:

ln -s libopenobex.so.2.0..0 libopenobex.so.2

Damn, doesn´t work :mad:

This is what I did:
Copied from N900 to N9:
obexd to /usr/lib/obex and
libopenobex.so.2.0.0 to /usr/lib

Then
ln -s libopenobex.so.2.0.0 libopenobex.so.2

Can still pair phone and carkit, but when it tries to transfer contacts it cancels immediately. Nothing transferred at all...

Thanks again anyway mirakels, your efforts are highly appreciated!

I'm sorry you got into trouble with the device.
maybe there is a way to reinstall the obexd package.
It might be that they setup selinux on the device to guard against overwrites. Guess someone must know about that on the meego forums...

No worries, wasn´t your fault, appreciate your support on this!
Did everything on my own risk and can´t even tell what exactly bricked the device. When I tried to investigate this further I noticed that ps | grep obex didn´t give me the usual startup command. So I did a chmod a+x obexd and tried to restart obex manually. But restarting was denied with permission denied (yes I was root). Then I wanted to reboot, but phone just gave me a warning as described before.
Thus, reinstalling obexd package wasn´t possible and I had to reflash.
Reflash worked like a charm, so I am again a happy N9 user...Besides the PBAP-issue of course :D

The aegis security checks the hashes of the binaries, and compare them to authorized ones. It will prevent you from running your non Nokia signed version, even as root (permission denied), and will prevent the system from running it during boot (bricked device).
If you don't need too many privileges for obexd, you can try to package your custom version, and install (dpkg) it in devel mode (which may get aegis to register and trust the binary).
If this needs privileges restricted to Nokia, then you won't be able to change the obexd without using a custom, aegis-free kernel.

See there (http://forum.meego.com/showthread.php?t=4575)for details.

But thanks for the details and clarification anyway!
Unfortunately I have no idea how to package my own version, but at least there is some hope:

Wrong forum, but do anyone know where the startup options for obexd are specified?

Can't find it anywhere, and I can't kill the obexd-process, so I can't start it manually with the right options either...

You can find obex start command in
/usr/share/dbus-1/services/obexd.service

(On N900, but should be the same on N9)

Not sure, but it might be no good idea to edit this file, as it might also brick your device!?

Thanks! I was grepping through /etc without finding anything. I took the plunge, and edited the file. And lo and behold, nothing bad happened - obexd is now starting with the --irmc switch. Haven't had time to test it on the handsfree yet, but I have lots of faith in this :)

I am using N900 since 2 years and have no issues so far. I have 2011 Jetta and using the Bluetooth with no phone book and no issues.

From the link
http://wiki.maemo.org/Bluetooth_PBAP, I have updated my phone for the PBAP as exactly mentioned. I do see the Phone book in my carkit and I can make the calls but the biggest issue is

"The other side can hear me, but I can't hear them and also I can't hear the phone ringing sound too. But when I receive a call, I can hear the ring, but I can't hear from them."

Can you please some one help me if I need to updated anything to my N900 or at least let me know, how can revert back my N900 before this update. I am fine living with no phonebook in the carkit as long as I can get the audio in bothways.

Your help is always appreciated.

Well, it might have been a success, I'm just not sure :) Earlier my handsfree said "Phonebook not supported", now it says "Phonebook empty". But I also tried on my girlfriends Audi A1, which uses PBAP - and the phonebook were emtpy there as well.

I have read about problems with contacts that are synchronized, so I disabled my MfE account, and created a couple of new contacts, but nothing changed.

I've read there will be lots of fixes regarding Bluetooth-compatibility in later releases, so I will just wait impatiently and hope for the best :)

Anyone has more success with PR1.1?

For me it isn't working. What is irritating me is that wen i put in
ps | grep obex
i only get back:
1817 user 8336 S /usr/lib/obex/obexd --nodaemon --opp --ftp --pbap --i
2001 root 2088 S grep obex
so i think that's not the complete command it looks like it is cut after the --i
is that normal or is there something wrong?

"The other side can hear me, but I can't hear them and also I can't hear the phone ringing sound too. But when I receive a call, I can hear the ring, but I can't hear from them." ...

My problem is a bit off this conversation, but anyway... My bluetooth connection with the carkit gives me headaches.

I bought an Iqua PHF-302 carkit. Nothing fancy with a phone book, but it should do the trick. Now I can make one call, and then strange things happen. I don't hear calls coming in, the N900 becomes slow and I may not hear the caller or vice versa.

Solution (not): switch off the carkit, turn off Bluetooth, and turn everything on again. Sounds a bit like Windows...
I did install the Linux kernel for power users 48. Is that it?

Thanks, Rob

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.

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?

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.

Hello all,

after several days of playing with obexd due to PBAP support I hope I reach the beta phase.

What's new:
1) working obexd-0.46
- no openobex dependency
- several PBAP fixes
- backporting maemo's older bluez, dbus, ebook, glib
- unfortunately it doesn't fix the "PBAP working but buggy, after copying contacts to Nokia Speakerphone HF-510 only some of them are visible, incoming calls show wrong name from some other contact."

2) It seems to me that the problem with buggy is in empty values in vcards so I try patch the evolution-data-server (only export to text vcards)

Unfortunatelly I had to borrow my car for this week and now I have only HF with IRMC support (works well without bug).

Do someone want to test these packages (it's not part of cssu yet!)? It will be the best if you face the bug with wrong name and invisible contacts. It's better to have some knowledge about xterm and dpkg (in case you need to downgrade back to older versions).

List of packages:
obexd_0.46-1maemo1+cssu1_armel.deb
evolution-data-server-addressbook_1.4.2.1-20120717-maemo1+cssu1_armel.deb

If you can create format-patch please do it.

BTW I answered your previous question but I include URL and it has to be approved by moderator. Answer is that I include all patches from meamo obexd 0.37 which isn't in mainstream. And for sure usb is included.

First of all thank you very much for the test.

1) great you tested PC Suite
2) Did you see all contacts? I get back my car and I see 4 problems:
- first contact (not alphabetically) wasn't shown as HF use first VCARD as "My identity"
- contact with defined skype has added letter "A" at the end of phone number (e.g. +420123456A)
- wrong parsing of PHOTO;VALUE=uri in HF which leads to joinig two contacts into one
- Maemo SDK had set wrong parameter so even plain recompiling evolution-data-server leads to crashing Calendar (occasional)

I solved all of above. I uploaded correct updated version of evolution-data-server to http (colon) (double slash) merlin1991 (dot) at (slash) ~luf (slash) pbap

The first contact shown within my Audi's hands-free device is all right. The first contact shown in PC Suite is fine, as well. But some persons seems to be without a number in the PC Suite contacts. This are contacts, where the number is in a field like "work number" and "private number". If the number is in a "number only" field, it will be shown. Otherwise: Every number is shown on the N900 itself. And when I syncronize between PC Suite and Outlook, the every number is shown in Outlook.

- contact with defined skype has added letter "A" at the end of phone number (e.g. +420123456A)

I have no skype contacts ...

- wrong parsing of PHOTO;VALUE=uri in HF which leads to joinig two contacts into one

??? I do not understand, what do you mean ...

Hey guys, i know this is a n900 thread, but since there is no real movement for PBAP on the N9, i was wondering how hard it would be to get this to work on the N9. As far as i understood and did research, it already has obexd that starts with the PBAP protocol/plugin, but the names won t get transferred to PBAP enabled devices (headset in my case). So i was wondering what would need to be done in order to get this working (editing bluez and recompiling it with PBAP support?)? thanks

The N9 and PBAP is mysterious. It is not officially integrated. But some persons can use PBAP functionalities, other not. You should try to reset the bluetooth connection. If this will not work, you should try an other headset.

yes, im well aware of it, thats why i asked for help here :) but ehm new headset, i just spent 50e for this nokia one thats really nice and useful, but doesnt do pbap with the n9, thats why i was wondering if anyone got ideas how to make it work, since it clearly supports pbap on a lumi 800 and on all android devices i have O_o

Hey guys, i know this is a n900 thread, but since there is no real movement for PBAP on the N9, i was wondering how hard it would be to get this to work on the N9.

I'm sorry I have no N9. I think you don't use PBAP but IrMC profile. There is only missing '/' in two places. If you read whole previous page we talked about it with hschmitt (and hschmitt sent patch to the obexd team).

For sure PBAP/IrMC aren't related to bluez package. It's in obexd package (as you can see which packages to update on N900).

i did in fact try enabling irmc plugin on the n9 and it started fine, but still not working. But the headset is PBAP and not IRMC compatible (has it in the specs and on the android devices it uses PBAP).
Sadly i dont know that much about linux and specifically bluetooth/obex, so i dont really know where to start patching or editing.
thanks again

If I am right, it should be problematic, to chance something in the N9 like it has been changed for the N900 here. Because the PBAP inside the N9 is not "that open" like in the N900. Otherwise PBAP is a part of the N9, but it does not work with every device.You can debug the behaviour of your N9. In the file "/usr/share/dbus-1/services/obexd.service" add the "--debug" option to the obexd call. Then you can see debug messages in "/var/log/syslog". From these messages you can tell how far the headset gets with querying PBAP.

I wrote in a previous post that IRMC is not possible with N9. Actually, I have to revise my statement. It might be possible.
obexd has a plugin mechanism. At the moment all available pugins are compiled into obexd but it can load plugins dynamic libraries, too.
Therefore obexd tries to load each "lib*.so" file in directory "/usr/lib/obex/plugins/". I renamed the irmc plugin to irmc2 applied the patch to fix it and compiled a libirmc2.so using scratchbox as a obexd plugin.
There are two obstacles.
First, I don't know whether aegis restricts obexd to load via "dlopen" a dynamic library?
Second, I don't know whether I compiled my libirmc2.so correctly?
Since I cannot kill and restart obexd, I cannot test it without a reboot. And if one of the obstacles occurs the device would be bricked. Currently, I have no time to reset my device.
If someone has a spare device to test it, please pn me. I will sent the compiled lib or if someone wants to compile it himself, I can share the sources.

Hi luf,
the patch is now upstream:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=bluetooth/obexd.git;a=commitdiff;h=6a000e6a95e3eaeb868d57ec9 d17a368b87f49a1

Maybe you could integrate them and see, whether it still works.

Sadly, the patches came into obexd right after version 0.47 was published, but for 0.48 IRMC should work.

Thanks for the info, ill try the debug option (sadly havent had any time at all to try it till now, will do it now) and see what i can understand from it. I still strongly believe the headset is using PBAP and not IRMC.

Edit: so this is the syslog with debug on on obexdand with bluetooth debugging (i guess on on, i didnt change it): http://pastebin.com/fUh1CBJR . I believe the key to my issue lies within lines 5 and 6 of the pastebin and possibly line 9? But i have no clue as to how to repair/mod the thing to make this nokia phonebook to work. Does it only want to download phone number from the SIM card, or am i understanding it wrongly?

How did you enable the debug and how is the syslog configured?
(I think you can try --debug='*' instead of only --debug)
I miss more info in the syslog.

It's great that fixes for IrMC are in upstream.

I'm sorry I don't want to use patch for recognizing correct phone books. As you can see I'm using completely different way in obexd for maemo N900 (I added also call history)...Wow that's cool. Maybe I have to reactivate my N900 as primary phone.
...
BTW it seems to me that it's some kind of cleanup of code instead of fixing some issues (or am I wrong?),..Yes it is just cleanup. And the first one is only replacing strings with macros. The one not committed by me is a lot restructuring and I hoped, that you could compile and test it once, so that their is no bug in it (no need to include those in your distributed packages).
...I also want to use only packages from debian testing as it's tested.like IRMC :rolleyes:
Actually, I doubt that IRMC is tested regularly, because it was not working since 2011-02-17!

Wow that's cool. Maybe I have to reactivate my N900 as primary phone.

I did it only in synchronous way and I tested it only with pbap-client from my computer.
Unfortunately no HF I tested using it (no idea if I miss something or just HFs don't use PBAP call history - ich, och, mch, cch).
I tested it with VW Touch Adapted (Burry manufacturer) and Parrot CK3100 (no idea what firmware - brother took it to vacation for 14 days).

Actually, I doubt that IRMC is tested regularly, because it was not working since 2011-02-17!

That's true. Ok. I'll try the last patch. But I'm working on asynchronous rtcom-eventlogger interface right now so I have no clue when I try the patch.

BTW it seems to me like outgoing call.
What about contact list? Does HF support contact list?

I have bad news for you. I may be wrong as I don't take a look into N9 code but I'm looking inside 0.46 code.

From your log:
Jul 31 15:04:07 (2012) obexd[1319]: plugins/pbap.c:parse_aparam() o 0 sa 1 sv xxxxxxxxxx fil 0 for 0 max 2 off 0

search value = 'xxxxxxxxxx' - what is looking for
filter = 0 - no filter - returns all
format = 0 - ???
maxlistcount = 2 - maximum two entires
offset = 0 - get it from the begin of the list

There is no support for search value in tracker phonebook.
So it seems your HF is using feature which isn't supported.

the xxxx in "search value = 'xxxxxxxxxx' - what is looking for" is just the phone number i have replaced with the X's for privacy reasons, yes its an outgoing call ( i doubt it makes any difference if its out or ingoing call).
What do you mean with "contact list" ? This is the headset i have http://accessories.nokia.com/products/nokia-bluetooth-stereo-headset-bh-221/ under specifications they say: HFP 1.5, PBAP 1.0, A2DP 1.2, AVRCP 1.0. Hmm i see this might be an issue if the tracker doesnt support this. I guess i cant change/force the headset/obex/pbap to use something other than "search value" and patching the phonebook tracker to support it would probably be a huge amount of work (i assume)?
about the support of it in the phonebook tracker, you greped it on the sources of the maemo/n900 version on your pc or just straight on the n900 (i assume i should find the sources for the n9 phonebook tracker/obexd and grep it there - if so where woudl i be getting them - a quick google didnt turn up with anything useful?)?
thanks again
Edit: so i checked the version of obexd on my n9 and it says it has 0.42-0maemo18+0m8 , so since this is even older than yours, i assume it wont support that at all... Got any other quick and dirty ideas to fix this nokia-made mess? thanks

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.

I have a lot of rows: starting with "plugins/pbap.c:"

like this :
Jun 19 19:42:53 Nokia-N900 obexd[1558]: plugins/pbap.c:query_result()
and only the drive and plugin load and initi for IrMC.
I suppose is working in PBAP...

I take a look on the patch and it conains memory leak. I mentioned it on obexd IRC (in last chunk the path is allocated but never freed). So I don't want to use.
I also don't understand why comparing still the same parts are more sexy than the way to test it part by part.
I mean:
if (!g_strcmp0(variable, "/telecom/pb"))
else if (!g_strcmp0(variable, "/telecom/ich"))
...

instead of
if (!strncmp(variable, "/telecom/", 9)) {
variable += 9;
if (!g_strcmp0(variable, "pb"))
else if (!g_strcmp0(variable, "ich"))
...
}

New version released. The good news is that CSSU developers agree with including into CSSU so we're working on it.

Changelog:
obexd (0.46-1maemo3+0cssu1)
* Rewrite call history using asynchronous calls (reduce obexd patches)
- this speeds up vcard-listing
* Fix removal of filter after last filter_data
* Fix incorrectly discarded signals
* Fix not printing debug messages when GOBEX_DEBUG is set
* Fix client PBAP setpath using absolute path with known locations
* Add cleanup of '.pcsuite' file on init
* Add call history support to IrMC profile

For async support new packages are needed. Also patched evolution-data-server package is recommended (you can download it from previous release (http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1241328&postcount=359)).

You can find all packages (and more) with sources on merlin's server (http://merlin1991.at/~luf/pbap/).

For next release I plan porting MAP support (for SMS) from meego.

Newer version is available. You can find more info here http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=436

The difference is in using async call history (which add one dbus daemon for rtcom-eventlogger). It's faster and should be better as no ugly patches needed for synchronous backend in obexd.
The rtcom-eventlogger-async will be also used in MAP support for N900.

excellent work! how do i like this x 1000 times? :)

in the meantime, is there a way to temporarily disable the MAP BT profile? the car pops up an error dialog after a few minutes when trying to retrieve SMSes. not really an issue. i can dismiss the dialog manually but i just have to do it everytime.

anyway, keep it up!!!!

Hmmm, it should be called bug :(

You can test if the MAP (non working) is enabled:

# sdptool browse local | grep Message
Service Name: Message Access server

You can disable it in /usr/share/dbus-1/services/obexd.service.
Change the line:
Exec=/usr/lib/obex/obexd --nodaemon --symlinks --root .obex-root --root-setup /usr/bin/obex-root-setup --capability '!/usr/bin/gen-obex-capability.sh'

to

Exec=/usr/lib/obex/obexd --nodaemon --noplugin=mas --symlinks --root .obex-root --root-setup /usr/bin/obex-root-setup --capability '!/usr/bin/gen-obex-capability.sh'

(basicaly add the parameter --noplugin=mas to the obexd)

You have to restart obexd after changing this file (reboot your N900 or kill the obexd and run it under user).

Hope it helps.

Just upgraded to latest CSSU-T, which has pulled in PBAP support. Is it possible to swap the first/last name order? I have an Abarth with Fiat's Blue&Me system which is storing names as Surname, First Name which is quite unnatural when trying to issue voice commands to it.

Congrats, you're faster me to announce it :)

Is it possible to swap the first/last name order? I have an Abarth with Fiat's Blue&Me system which is storing names as Surname, First Name which is quite unnatural when trying to issue voice commands to it.

I'm sorry I understand what you want but I can't get where it's wrong. Can you please try to debug it a little bit? I want to know if Blue&Me is using PullAll or vCard listing. How to debug obexd is few pages back.

Also good for me is if you're able to use pbap-client (python script so it's arch independent) from obexd-client package like:

./pbab-client <BT addr>

to list your contacts and see if it's ok.

I receive from my N900:
BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:2.1
UID:26
PRODID:-//Synthesis AG//NONSGML SyncML Engine V3.4.0.27//EN
REV:2012-03-13T15:18:43Z
N:Surname;FirstName;;;
FN:FirstName Surname
NICKNAME:Nick
TEL;PREF:+123456789
ADR:;;;;;;
END:VCARD

And it's what is in specification (from PBAP_SPEC_V11r00.pdf):
3.1.6.1 Name attribute format
The name attribute of the vCard-listing DTD has the same definition as the name attribute of a vCard - i.e., the N attribute. Therefore, the format to be used is the field structure “LastName;FirstName;MiddleName;Prefix;Suffix”

So I have no clue what should I reverse because it will be againist specification and should broke all other handfree. BTW other phone works well with PBAP phone book and Blue&Me?

Strange. Do you have to change vcards exported when using Petrovich? Because export vcards should be in the same format as PBAP vcards. Please try to debug the PBAP. Maybe the difference is in VCARD version or something like that.

It would be nice if you can compare some vcard from pbap-client and export for Petrovich if it differs or not.

Ran pbab-client (from 0.47 package) on my laptop using latest versions from Arch Linux. Had to use python2 pbab-client, to avoid the system default of running v3, as the print function failed due to the syntax changes made in v3.

The only differences running pbab-client for me compared to your results is that the VCARD version is reporting 3.0 and I have no PRODID field. I haven't been able to try Petrovich with the car yet to make sure that is still working as it was previously. I have found that the v-card used by Petrovich, generated by the export contacts feature of Contacts, is different for v2.1. It seems to omit the FN: field. I'll keep testing.

Funny they have to change pbap-client in 0.47:

#!/usr/bin/python

import sys
import dbus

bus = dbus.SessionBus()

client = dbus.Interface(bus.get_object("org.openobex.client", "/"),
"org.openobex.Client")

print "Creating Session"
session_path = client.CreateSession({"Destination": sys.argv[1], "Target": "PBAP"})
pbap = dbus.Interface(bus.get_object("org.openobex.client", session_path),
"org.openobex.PhonebookAccess")
session = dbus.Interface(bus.get_object("org.openobex.client", session_path),
"org.openobex.Session")

#paths = ["PB", "ICH", "OCH", "MCH", "CCH"]
paths = ["PB"]

for path in paths:
print "\n--- Select Phonebook %s ---\n" % (path)
pbap.Select("int", path)

print "\n--- GetSize ---\n"
ret = pbap.GetSize()
print "Size = %d\n" % (ret)

print "\n--- List vCard ---\n"
ret = pbap.List()
for item in ret:
print "%s : %s" % (item[0], item[1])
pbap.SetFormat("vcard21")
# pbap.SetFilter(["VERSION", "FN", "TEL"]);
ret = pbap.Pull(item[0])
print "%s" % (ret)

print "\n--- PullAll ---\n"
pbap.SetFormat("vcard21")
# pbap.SetFilter(["VERSION", "FN", "TEL"]);
pbap.SetFilter([]);
ret = pbap.PullAll()
print "%s" % (ret)

You can see pbap-client 0.46 enforce vcard 21: pbap.SetFormat("vcard21")

The only differences running pbab-client for me compared to your results is that the VCARD version is reporting 3.0 and I have no PRODID field.

Maybe there is activated filter in newer pbabp-client.

I haven't been able to try Petrovich with the car yet to make sure that is still working as it was previously. I have found that the v-card used by Petrovich, generated by the export contacts feature of Contacts, is different for v2.1. It seems to omit the FN: field. I'll keep testing.

Can you please paste here (masked name and number) some vcard from pbap-client and the export so I can see the difference?
It should be the same contact.

Please try also debug the obexd so we know how the Blue&Me is using PBAP (PullAll or VCard listing).
You need installed, configured and started syslog + http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1237032&postcount=340 + restart obexd (the easiest way is to reboot the phone)

I have to use the 0.47 version to get it to work with the installed obexd. 0.47 changes the D-Bus namespace to use org.bluez.obex, messes with the API and sets VCARD 3.0 in pbab-client. I've run with 0.47 returning 2.1 and 3.0.

pbab-client 2.1
BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:2.1
N:Last;First;;;
FN:First Last
TEL;CELL:XXXXXXXXXXX
END:VCARD

Exported 2.1
BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:2.1
UID:13
REV:2010-02-09T15:51:30z
TEL;CELL:XXXXXXXXXXX
N:Last;First;;;
END:VCARD

pbab-client 3.0
BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:3.0
N:Last;First;;;
FN:First Last
TEL;TYPE=CELL:XXXXXXXXXXX
END:VCARD

Exported 3.0
BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:3.0
UID:13
REV:2010-02-09T15:51:30z
TEL;TYPE=CELL:XXXXXXXXXXX
FN:First Last
N:Last;First;;;
END:VCARD

Content wise, as stated earlier, the only change is the addition of FN using pbab with VCARD 2.1. The order of the returned items in the VCARD (FN, N, TEL etc.) seems to be vary for each contact but as far as I can see always returns the same for that contact.

Will have to wait till at least tomorrow afternoon to test with car as I'm off to sleep before long.

For syslog, is it as simple as:
root
apt-get install sysklogd
start sysklogd

Then examine /var/log/syslog?

You wrote right steps. I only don't remember the default syslog settings. Please take a look into /etc/syslog.conf before you start sysklogd.

You can start sysklogd few seconds before Blue&Me pairing/connecting so the log file will be smaller.

You should see obexd lines in /var/log/syslog. These lines I'm interested in. And of course I'm curious if Petrovich way leads to different behaviour in voice dialing.

I see no reason what prevents you from upgrade to 0.46.
And you downgraded to older version (maemo5+) so then it offers to you upgrade to maemo6+0m5. Nothing strange.

obexd_0.46-1maemo3+0cssu1_armel.deb is newer version but I didn't touch FTP over bluetooth so I think it doesn't help you.

Can you test the same on Win 7 32-bit? Can you somehow enable debug mode on Win side? Can you turn on debug mode for obexd on N900 (decribed on previous pages)?

I don't understand: "Yes. Earlier before reflash, could also transfer files with obexed (0.46-1maemo2+cssu1).". Does it mean that you were able to transfer files using obexd 0.46? But after some reflash you're able to upload files using obexd 0.18 but not with obexd 0.46? Please be more verbose in description.

Heres the syslog for pairing with blue&me system. I've had a look through car menus to see if there is any kind of display settings to reverse the names.

I then deleted all data and paired again, cancelling the initial transfer and tried to send data via petrovich but it just confused the system. you go through menu into a mode where you can send the contacts, keeping a tally of how many were received on the display. however, after completing, going to phonebook option just locks up the system for a few seconds, with the display just showing the menu title. eventually it just lets you carry on navigating the menu. i then used a new menu option which seems to pull in contacts over pbap again and i'm back to square one.

Maybe you'll need also disable irmc plugin (add to the noplugin list) as it's another profile which provides contacts.

BTW it's using phonebook (not vcard listing). It seems you're the best bug hunter. I see there is missing dependency so even the car kit asked for call history the N900 didn't reply due to missing package rtcom-eventlogger-async.

should rtcom-eventlogger-async have been pulled in automatically (incorrect dependancy list in control file)? not sure what to check but librtcom-eventlogger0 and librtcom-eventlogger1 are installed along with corresponding librtcom-eventlogger-ui files and librtcom-eventlogger1-async. surely they should depend if they provide access.

edit: apparently librtcom-eventlogger1-async does't list it as dependancy.

might have to dig out the n95 and try pairing that just to check out results.

it may also be worth noting for other users that there are at least 2 different manufacturers for blue+me that i know of. first shipped with early 500s, punto etc which needed a seperate adaptor to work with iphone. it only had 32mb RAM iirc and sturggled cards over a few gig and when combined with ecodrive (not that you use that on an abarth ;p ). frequently hear of people having to disconnect battery to reset it after it screwed up, myself included after it took out steering wheel controls.

the second i know of is made by a different manufacturer and replaces more parts of the MS Auto 4 (yuck) system with there own. it doubles the RAM and seems to be far more stable. doesn't need iphone adaptor and features aux in as well. due to continued faults i now have one of these, minus the aux plug. Firmware is incompatible between the two.

You can see it only in obexd debug output and I don't know what you mean with IrMC level.

If you miss call history in CSSU-T let's install rtcom-eventlogger-async:

If you want to know what is supported you have to take a look into the obexd source code (plugins/irmc.c).

I have a new syslog with obexd.
I was able to, you had to restart the N900 and just try to connect to the bluetooth and make an attempt to send a file on the N900.

I see boot there correct obexd initialization and that's all. I don't know if you even have paired the computer with N900.
Let's try to remove pairing from computer and also from N900 (Settings -> Bluetooth -> Device(s)). For sure you can also:
1) kill obexd
2) stop bluetoothd
3) remove content of /var/lib/bluetooth
4) enable bluetooth debug (in /etc/event.d/bluetoothd change "exec /usr/sbin/bluetoothd -n" to "exec /usr/sbin/bluetoothd -n -d"
5) shutdown the phone
6) start the phone
7) pair phone with the computer
8) try the file transfer

it looks the same as my problem (yesterday on the IRC), re-pairing is not enough, he needs to "delete" the device from the PC and add it again

IrMC level implemented in obexd is IEL: 2 (from source code).

I'm just sorry for not checking myself; i'm not a lazy guy. But while being abroad on yet another business trip in a hotel room in Georgia, i just received news today that one of my longest-duration (13yrs since i met him at a former employer) friend was yesterday killed in a damn motorcycle accident, without being guilty, by a f*cking not-attention-paying 78yrs old who just blew him off the road.
Exactly 14 days before his 54th birthday. The information was just coming in by different sources during last hours: so my mind is all elsewhere now. And so i can't even visit his wife that is in the hospital; and their daugther just lost her father.

Both were like my surrogate family for me, for years.

It did not help.

It might help, I did that recently, but adds a next device in the registry with the next number #, and I do not want.
Among other things because I've done lately recovery.

Then find a way to tell you PC bluetooth stack to forget what's cached and re-discover the available services and whatnot. I start to believe that the problem is with the SW you are using on your PC and not with obexd. As I had exactly the same behavior here (win XP) - FTP service is listed, but nothing appears when you try to browse it. And obexd generates no log.

It is possible that SW is underdeveloped, the other does not work. I installed the latest WIDCOMM Bluetooth - Azurewave BlueTooth driver v. V6.5.1.2500 and somehow recently surprised http://support.asus.com.tw/download/download.aspx?model=Bluetooth&f_name=Bluetooth_Azurewave_Vista_Win7_625500.zip&f_type=27&os=30

Why with obexd_0.18 no problem? Well, before updating to CSSU-S v. 4.1 also work with obexd_0.46.

It's too hard to say for me as I'm unable to reproduce (lack of Win 7) and it's very hard to get reasonable debug output from you.
You still go back here instead of IRC.

Are you able to flush all BT info for your N900 from the computer?

I need for more troubleshooting:
bluetoothd debug + obexd debug + (at the best also hcidump):
1) CSSU-S 3.0 + obexd_0.18 (just --debug)
2) CSSU-S 3.0 + obexd_0.46 (--debug='*')
3) CSSU-S 4.1 + obexd_0.46 (--debug='*')

I do not know just how to do it?

I installed the latest version of obexd ( on previous 0.46-1maemo2+cssu1)
obexd_0.46-1maemo3+0cssu1_armel.deb
rtcom-eventlogger-async_0.1_armel.deb
librtcom-eventlogger1-async_0.1_armel.deb
Nothing helped.
Here is a new syslog.

New version released. I included the new obexd into CSSU-T (as you noticed). But it's release cycle is too slow and I want to test it more frequently - it's also easier for bug hunting.

Changelog:
obexd (0.46-1maemo4+0cssu1)
* Initial MAP support (no notifications, no push methods)
* Disable Syncevolution SYNCML plugin as it conflicts with Nokia one and break bluetooth synchronization
* Add phone type none into internal vcard handling
* Regression: Fixes: NB#149737 - Not possible to browse external memory card through file manager in pc suite

obexd (0.46-1maemo3+0cssu2) - this version is included in CSSU-T
* Backport client bluetooth connection
* Disable MAP as the support isn't working yet

For call history and MAP support you need rtcom-eventlogger-async packages. I finally fixed the missing dependency for it.
Patched evolution-data-server package is recommended (you can download it from previous release (http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1241328&postcount=359)).

You can find all packages (and more) with sources on merlin's server (http://merlin1991.at/~luf/obexd/).

I have to investigate if and how I can add notifications and push methods into the MAP. So I don't know if it'll be included in next release.

...have added wiki info about importance of 'rtcom-eventlogger-async' for accessing call history.

don_falcone

2012-10-10, 06:51

Last evening, i just managed to install missing rtcom-eventlogger-async.

Headunit: Alpine CDA-137BTi w/ BT firmware 1.14
Packages: just the latest ones available (as listed on the post above and on merlin's server)

Former situation: ok
Phonebook access: working (PB update possible too), entries with multiple numbers are marked as that
Call history: not working ("No Memory" is displayed on headunit for Dialed, Received, Missed Calls)

Ok, tried accessing call history this morning. N900 was rebooted at least twice, still no call history. Went on deleting device entry in headunit and re-paired my mobile.

Current situation: interesting ;)
Phonebook access: not working ("PB update" is still displayed as it was like before after being freshly paired, but now just "No Memory" is shown during access of PB)
Call history: partly working ("No Memory" is still displayed for "Dialed Calls", whereas entries are now listed for both "Missed Calls" and "Received Calls" - but unit displays them with "NO Name", probably because of empty PB on unit)

This smells like i have to dig deeply into it and generate some logs...

Btw: with patched 'evolution-data-server' package, is this patch also in the CSSU-T version? I compared revision numbers, and they seem to be the same.

Weird.
1) The question is if the PBAP worked with previous version or the carkit just remember some state from past (does it update PB?).
2) I can't imagine why Dialed calls doesn't work while the others does. The only idea is count of entries.
3) NO Name shouldn't rely on empty PB as different VCARDs. I send in name just fullname which should be correct based on specification. But maybe carkit doesn't follow it and expect another form.

This smells like i have to dig deeply into it and generate some logs...

I don't have good news for you as it seems so :(

You have two possibilities: you can dig a debug logs (wiki - trouble shooting) or follow instructions below (or do the both):
1) remove rtcom-eventlogger-async package and re-pair
2) while steps 1 and 2 doesn't help please try downgrade to the previous version and re-pair (you should get debug log if you want)

Btw: with patched 'evolution-data-server' package, is this patch also in the CSSU-T version? I compared revision numbers, and they seem to be the same.

It's part of CSSU-T since version 5.

i can confirm initial MAP functionality works. Due to lack of push and notifications, new sms events are not seen and new smses are not captured at the other end. On initial pairing, new smes are seen at the other end.

Keep up the good work.

There is critical bug for IrMC phonebook support in obexd since version 0.46-1maemo3 (including).

I try to fix it but I have no IrMC carkit to test now :( So please don_falcone let's try it. It's not a new release however it has new version number). Here is the link for the obexd package:

Ok, with that newer obex i see one slight improvement, namely that all three (dialed,received, missed calls) instead of two histories are populated - but still with number and "NO NAME" only. Anyway, previously "Dialed Calls" was completely empty.

I did two sessions today, one with IrMC and the other with PBAP (noplugins=irmc,syncevolution). Links to cleaned-up syslogs send per PM. Sequence was roughly: Voice Call (not supported), Dialed Calles, Received Calls, Missed Calls, Phone Book.

Two remarks to make:
(IrMC session)
As soon as i selected "Dialed calls" the unit triggered a PB update. This took way longer than usual, but at the end of sync the unit still pop'd up "No Memory" and the PB was empty.

(PBAP session)
No sync is triggered when accessing PB or call lists. They show the entries was received before during IrMC sync. Also, therefore PB is empty too ("No Memory"). May be simply that IrMC sync is needed.

Nice, but I do nothing with call history. And I saw that everything seems well in hcidump. I'm affraid that "NO NAME" is the problem with different form of NAME. But it follows the specification. We will see when phonebook will be fixed.

Sequence was roughly: Voice Call (not supported), Dialed Calles, Received Calls, Missed Calls, Phone Book.

What do you mean with Voice call? I don't think it's obexd related.

(IrMC session)
As soon as i selected "Dialed calls" the unit triggered a PB update. This took way longer than usual, but at the end of sync the unit still pop'd up "No Memory" and the PB was empty.

I see the delay in IrMC when carkit is trying to get some information due to another bug. The patch has written by some imbecile ... aaah it was me :)
I fixed it and uploaded new version to the same location as yesterday:
http://merlin1991.at/~luf/obexd/obexd_0.46-1maemo5%2b0cssu1_armel.deb

I know it has the same filename but fixed obexd and also changelog. Please give it a try and report back the result. Thanks.

(PBAP session)

You're right. Your device doesn't support PB over PBAP or I don't know why it doesn't use PBAP for obtaining PB.

Good news: PB as well as call history are populated now! (i took the opportunity during my lunch break out of curiosity) Tutto bene ;) Also, when using PBAP, PB and history are accessible, but of course not synced. I will update the Wiki accordingly. It's nice that with your effort we iron'd it out.

(Now i have to find out why just _one_ particular contact won't get synced.)

Just out of curiosity: what did you change in package then?

As for Voice Call, headunit supports Voice call feature, but i don't know what dependencies have to be fulfilled on mobile device side.

EDIT:

What means "Nokia-N900 obexd[2000]: get_next_header(): Resource temporarily unavailable (11)"? It occurs several times in both test cases.

Also, i see plugins/pbap.c and plugins/irmc.c used both when i have enabled IrMC, whileas only plugins/pbap.c is used when IrMC is disabled. :confused:

Thank you very much for you help with testing and providing me the output.
I don't understand what isn't synced. Can you explain it with more details?
Can you also confirm/decline if the "NO NAME" problem persist?

(Now i have to find out why just _one_ particular contact won't get synced.)

Let's try to use pbap-client from your computer/laptop or hcidump with ascii output to see what is transferred from N900 to carkit. Maybe there is some parsing problem and two following contacts are merged by carkit (I saw this with my carkit but I see no problem with vcards). Contacts aren't sorted alphabeticaly when retrieving from N900 ...

Just out of curiosity: what did you change in package then?

One imbecile (me) is using some restructuralization patches for irmc.c and I made 2 mistakes:
1) detect /telecom/luid/ instead of /telecom/pb/luid/
2) forgot to return session struct when open is successful (everytime returns NULL).
You can see it better in CSSU obexd git repository. I'll push it in few minutes.

As for Voice Call, headunit supports Voice call feature, but i don't know what dependencies have to be fulfilled on mobile device side.

This isn't supported neither by bluez nor by obexd. I have this on my TODO but don't hold your breath. The TODO is still growing.
For example higher positions are new bluez version with DUN and PAN support (missing some PAN part now), obexd MAP support with push and notifications ...

What means "Nokia-N900 obexd[2000]: get_next_header(): Resource temporarily unavailable (11)"? It occurs several times in both test cases.

This is ok. It's due to asynchronous calls. It tries read before the async callback fill some data.

Also, i see plugins/pbap.c and plugins/irmc.c used both when i have enabled IrMC, whileas only plugins/pbap.c is used when IrMC is disabled. :confused:

Sure. It has two reasons :)
1) call history is accessed only through PBAP with your carkit
2) IrMC calls routines form PBAP as it returns the same ;) What I want to say is that IrMC is implemented as only some wrapper for PBAP in obexd + some info following IrMC specification

Hey, you helped me more than the other way around, so...

I don't understand what isn't synced. Can you explain it with more details?

I meant that PB is not sync'd when using PBAP. Didn't you concluded this too from the PBAP log? I have to test this again (clean device, unpair, re-pair).

Can you also confirm/decline if the "NO NAME" problem persist?

Indeed the problem doesn't exist anymore; reason was that PB was empty. (the one contact that i'm unable to sync is still displayed as NO NAME)

Let's try to use pbap-client from your computer/laptop or hcidump with ascii output to see what is transferred from N900 to carkit. Maybe there is some parsing problem and two following contacts are merged by carkit (I saw this with my carkit but I see no problem with vcards). Contacts aren't sorted alphabeticaly when retrieving from N900 ...

Ok, what would be the best way to setup the test? For laptop, i have only one BT1.1 dongle in the office, otherwise i have to get my V3.0 from home. I use LAST NAME sort order in both N900 and carkit. Maybe i should check the contacts just before and after that particular one...

Also, in hcidump, should i use option -a or -X?

One imbecile (me) is using some restructuralization patches for irmc.c and I made 2 mistakes:
1) detect /telecom/luid/ instead of /telecom/pb/luid/
2) forgot to return session struct when open is successful (everytime returns NULL).
You can see it better in CSSU obexd git repository. I'll push it in few minutes.

Dumb question: are your patches somehow also merged to upstream bluez?

This isn't supported neither by bluez nor by obexd. I have this on my TODO but don't hold your breath. The TODO is still growing.
For example higher positions are new bluez version with DUN and PAN support (missing some PAN part now), obexd MAP support with push and notifications ...

The MAP part will be interesting. Another test case for me ;) For Voice call i wouldn't even be sure how (if) the kit could decide between multiple numbers per contact... right now those contacts are marked with '*' in front, and on selection from PB i can choose which number to dial.

This is ok. It's due to asynchronous calls. It tries read before the async callback fill some data.

Ok.

Sure. It has two reasons :)
1) call history is accessed only through PBAP with your carkit

Right.

Ok, what would be the best way to setup the test? For laptop, i have only one BT1.1 dongle in the office, otherwise i have to get my V3.0 from home.

I know only way under linux. You need to install obexd client part (I'm using RHEL 6 + myself compiled rpm package 0.46) :) + the python script from N900 dpkg obexd-test package.
So maybe the hcidump should be easier for you.

Also, in hcidump, should i use option -a or -X?

Let's record the hcidump log first (as you already did with non working PB). Then you can try it more times with different arguments:

hcidump -r <hcidump file> -at | less

Remember you need to start recording before connecting.
And you're looking for /telecom/pb.vcf and the VCARD:BEGIN etc bellow the /telecom/pb.vcf

I use LAST NAME sort order in both N900 and carkit. Maybe i should check the contacts just before and after that particular one...

You don't understand me. I don't know how to describe it better. You'll see there is no order in vcards transfer from N900 to carkit (in pbap-client or hcidump output).
You can't check it againist PB which is sorted in N900 application and also in carkit. The transfer order is simple different.

Dumb question: are your patches somehow also merged to upstream bluez?

No this two as the problem isn't in obexd upstream git. I adopted one of their patches and made two mistakes in it.
The problem is that the obexd upstream is a little bit away and some changes are N900 specific and N900 is old so there is nearly nothing what should be upstremed. Even meego is using different backends ...

What do you mean by info?

Some IrMC specific info. Let's look into the source code plugins/irmc.c (irmc_open_devinfo, irmc_open_info, irmc_open_cc, irmc_open_luid). It's all about what the device is supporting and how many contacts it contains etc.

(PS.: if you live not too far from .CZ+.DE border, and need a unit for local tests, i could possibly arrange. Distance my hometown -> Prague is ~150km, to border is ~40-50km)

Thanks for the offer. I'm far away from CZ+DE border. I'm near CZ+SK border. Maybe I can test it when I disable PBAP plugin. I have to give it a try.

In the meantime, anything specific that one should especially test using bluez 4.99-2? At least i can say InternetRadioWidget+A2DP work nicely together, and handover of active calls from phone to carkit and vice versa too.

No idea what specific. Everything you can imagine if you have time ;)
BTW I uploaded new bluez-4.99 (same name version) with backported NAP - network support. You can see something about that here: http://mg.pov.lt/maemo-ssu-irclog/%23maemo-ssu.2012-11-11.log.html#t2012-11-11T17:42:06

Same name? dpkg complained about downgrading, so i looked closer and the newer build is 4.99-2maemo2+0ccsu1 vs. the older 4.99-2maemo1+0cssu1 (older as in being from 2012-10-19)

I would like to check AVRCP protocol support - i see it being announced in L2CAP communication dump, but having no clue right now how to do a set up. Maybe a media player has to be running first, will see... I don't think i could use it along with InternetRadioWidget, which is my secondary use case (along with primary==handsfree).

Not yet. *knocks on wood* But i found it humorous that it bothered you so long... maybe because i never observed it. And i checked the change on .conf file regarding using variables for device name.

(combined IrMC/PBAP/bluez 4.99-2 posting)

Ok, i don't get it. (...but what i get now is what you meant by "there s no order"). After diggin' through both IrMC and PBAP hci logs, my conclusions/results:

1) The contact that is missing from PB isn't transmitted for telecom/pb.vcf.

2) But for each:

telecom/ich.vcf
telecom/och.vcf
telecom/mch.vcf

this missing contact was transmitted!

3) I also have a contact that is only shown by number in the carkit's PB, but the name is clearly stored on the N900. EDIT: I'm not to sure, but it seems i can't find this number or name in the logs for now.

4) For telecom/mch.vcf, entries seem to be (at least sometimes) doubled, with and without country calling code, so i have entries starting with both (example) 0176 and +49176...

but for different X-IRMC-CALL-DATETIME entries (most of them 25-30s apart). Havent' observed this for ich.vcf and och.vcf, where all numbers are transmitted like they have been stored by me in the PB - complete with country calling code.

5) I also get this:
L2CAP(d): cid 0x0043 len 6 [psm 23]
AVCT: Response : pt 0x00 transaction 1 pid 0x110e
AV/C: Rejected: address 0x48 opcode 0x00
Subunit: Panel
Opcode: Vendor Dependent
Company ID: 0x001958
AVRCP: GetCapabilities: pt Single len 0x0001
PDU malformed

6) file transfer w/ Win7 Ultimate x64 (latest Broadcomm Suite, 6.5.x) isn't working, in both directions - have to dig deeper into this. IIRC it was already mentioned by another user in this thread.

EDIT: for AT+CIND=?, should in the future the N900's response include "message", when MAP support is enabled? Right now it's just
("battchg),(0-5)),("signal",(0-5)),("service",(0,1)),("call",(0,1)),("callsetup",(0-3)),("callheld",(0-2)),("roam",(0,1))

PS: Totally cool that i didn't update my aptosid x64 VM for months - update orgy before actually starting. And additionally the VirtualBox DKMS guest module isn't building anymore. So no shares right now.

I'm sorry for so late response but I'm overloaded in work some as at home ... You know the winter is coming :D

1) The contact that is missing from PB isn't transmitted for telecom/pb.vcf.

Strange. How strong are you in coding + compiling or in debugging? The easiest way without debugging is to add some more debug logs into the code to see where is the contact dropped. I'm unable to reproduce.

Or are you able to find any difference in this one contact?

2) But for each:

telecom/ich.vcf
telecom/och.vcf
telecom/mch.vcf

this missing contact was transmitted!

Sure. It's normal. PB information is stored and read from evolution-data-server but call history is stored and read from rtcom-eventlogger. So the data are harvested from two different storages which has no conection between them. PB just e-d-s, call history just rtcom-eventlogger.

4) For telecom/mch.vcf, entries seem to be (at least sometimes) doubled, with and without country calling code, so i have entries starting with both (example) 0176 and +49176...

Hmmm, interesting. I think I need to know the wole record. You can get it using sqlite tools or test tools from rtcom-eventlogger-async :) Oh I didn't create package for it so I attach gzipped armel binaries :)

test-get-event-by-id [<id>]
if id is ommited 1 is used (id of the event - not the contact)
- returns int columns: id,service-id,event-type-id,storage-time,start-time,end-time,flags,outgoing
- returns string columns: service,event-type,local-uid,local-name,group-uid,remote-ebook-uid,remote-uid,remote-name,channel

test-get-event-list [<query> [<offset> [<limit>]]]
if query is ommited it returns all entries from rtcom-eventlogger
if offset is ommited it returns entries from first occurence
if limit is ommited it returns all entries from the offset position
- returns int columns: id,service-id,event-type-id,start-time,outgoing
- returns string columns: service,event-type,remote-ebook-uid,remote-uid,remote-name

test-get-event-list-count [<query> [<offset> [<limit>]]]
same as test-get-event-list just returns only count of matched entries

Some queries from obexd (for an inspiration):
ich.vcf:
service-id;1;0;local-uid;"ring/tel/ring";0;event-type-id;1;0;outgoing;0;0

och.vcf:
service-id;1;0;local-uid;\"ring/tel/ring\";0;event-type-id;1;0;outgoing;1;0

mch.vcf:
service-id;1;0;local-uid;\"ring/tel/ring\";0;event-type-id;2;0

cch,vcf:
service-id;1;0;local-uid;\"ring/tel/ring\";0

The query is created from triples: <column-name>;<value>;<compare operation>

All this I get from rtcom-eventlogger sources.
- column-names: src/db.c - EventField fields[] - mapping between DB columns and column-name and also the value type (INT, STR, BOOLEAN)
- compare operation:rtcom-eventlogger/eventlogger-types.h - enum RTComElOp - 0 - equal, 1 - not equal; 2 - greater; 3 - greater or equal; 4 - less; 5 - less or equal; 6 - string is in the list of strings; 7 - string ends with

5) I also get this:
L2CAP(d): cid 0x0043 len 6 [psm 23]
AVCT: Response : pt 0x00 transaction 1 pid 0x110e
AV/C: Rejected: address 0x48 opcode 0x00
Subunit: Panel
Opcode: Vendor Dependent
Company ID: 0x001958
AVRCP: GetCapabilities: pt Single len 0x0001
PDU malformed

I don't know the BT protocol and even bluez so good. I also have no idea when it appears in dump. What I associate is that I see some patches for Vendor dependent codecs in upstream bluez. But you have to be me more descriptive (+maybe some debug log) so I can understand and take a look on it).

6) file transfer w/ Win7 Ultimate x64 (latest Broadcomm Suite, 6.5.x) isn't working, in both directions - have to dig deeper into this. IIRC it was already mentioned by another user in this thread.

I didn't get useable debug logs and resp. hcidumps from the user who reported this. So feel free to provide such reports ...

for AT+CIND=?, should in the future the N900's response include "message", when MAP support is enabled?

It's not so easy. AT commands are recognized and handled by bluez (bluetoothd) while PBAP, IrMC, MAP, FTP, ... profiles are handled byt obexd. That's also the reason why N900 still doesn't return the adressbook using AT commands.

I don't understand your comment. PBAP is working for N900 with upgraded obexd package (even included in CSSU-testing).
Can you be more concrete what's wrong? Please report obexd version at least and steps which leads you to failure.

Very strange list of packages. What documentation did you follow?

2) you don't list obexd package (which is the main)
3) rtcom-eventlogger-async is needed only for call history and MAP support in newest obexd for N900

Using FileBox' "Share" functionality.

OK then, tried again with the use of SUU testing, first of all started with a clean install, re-flashed my phone via Lap Top running Win 7 Ultimate X32 bit.

Next updated the software via Nokia suite as the image I have on my lap top is a year or so old

Added SSU Testing, I am still not able to get remote SIM, yes I can see the phone numbers on my Car display (A Range Rover Sport) however I am still unable to view my SIM Contacts, only phone numbers, which is no use to man not beast.

So unfortunately my N900 is a play thing, pity as I do like the phone.

Good you have latest obexd running so your N900 is supporting PBAP and IrMC profiles. No remote SIM profile or rSAP is supported.

I also don't know what do you mean with remote SIM. Does it mean you don't see contact names in car? Are you sure your car is supporting PBAP or IrMC?

If you want to try something more, please try to debug the obexd if the car is downloading the phonebook using PBAP or IrMC. It's described on wiki page: http://wiki.maemo.org/Bluetooth_PBAP#Get_debug_messages (the Permanent way is easier).

Please send me the syslog output from the test (feel free to use private message).

EDIT: as far as I know the N900 doesn't support very well (if even) contacts on SIM card. For sure PBAP and IrMC support only contacts stored in phone.

Yes, I have a backup of my phone numbers on my lap top, so installed them onto my N900 via Nokia PC suite.
I have just done the same install using the same back up onto an old N96, and it works perfectly, all contact names are visible on the car display.

So you should have contacts in phone not in SIM card.

N900 doesn't work with car and N96 works. Strange.

No problem. If you want to go deeper into this problem please provide me obexd debug output from syslog. Maybe we can find something interesting.

Newsflash: file transfer won't work too when using other Windows than Win 7 x64. I did test using my old Acer BT 1.1 dongle on a WinXP SP3 workstation - same (non-)results... transfers failed in both directions. (discovery & pairing works, as observed under Win 7)

Bad news for you. I tried dongle MSI PC2PC Bluetooth (BT 2.0) on Win Vista with BlueSoleil stack and it works well (also audio).

So i'd suggest someone else help out with (more detailed) logs running under (any) Windows.

It seems that the problem is in BT 1.1 or different windows bluetooth stack.

I'll try to find some BT 1.1 dongle to test it ... but I don't think I can find one here.

Maybe its better to split the thread into obexd PBAP/IrMC issues and bluetoothd FTP /OPP issues.

It'll be nice but I'm lazy in this paper works. I have also several creation of wiki pages in my todo list :(

EDIT (for don_falcone):
- can you unpair (N900 with win) on both sides, start debugging and log also pairing?
- are you able to test it with stock bluez?
- are you able to test the functionality of win+BT againist bluez-4.99 (or higher version) on some laptop/workstation?
- can you send me more info (as much as possible) about BT on win side? at least what bluez stack

EDIT2:
I have this BT dongle: http://www.msi.com/product/net/BToes-2-0--3X-Faster-.html - driver with Soleil BT stack is on another tab.

EDIT3: It works also on Win XP (BlueSoleil stack). Now I'm figthing with another stack ...

EDIT4: It works win xp -> N900 ok with Microsoft BT stack. However I had the same problem with N900 -> win xp. I see the same error in syslog which means that win BT side doesn't support COM port over BT (RFCOMM). When I configure "Incoming COM port" for BT on win xp side I'm able to send file also from N900 -> win xp

I'll try also the BT stack you're using (WIDCOMM - under Win XP)

EDIT5: N900 -> win xp with WIDCOMM is working for me. However I don't find a way to try OPP win xp -> N900. obexFTP win xp -> N900 using "send to" function has the problem that it tries put it into root directory for obexFTP where it's forbidden (in stock too)

However merlin1991 has the same problem as you so maybe he can provide me access to some test case.

2012-12-18, 22:20

I will try, but not today. My main Win7 machine has Anycom USB-500 (BT 2.1+EDR) dongle along with Broadcom chipset and BTW/WIDCOMM stack. XP machine has Acer BT500 (BT 1.1) dongle with CSR chipset and MS software stack.

So maybe it's BlueSoleil vs WIDCOMM/MS stack... I'll test with my second, spare Anycom dongle (under XP) and see if i a) can get BlueSoleil, and b) it running with that dongle.

Contacts were on the phone, not the SIM card.
The contacts were imported on both the N96 and the N900 from a Nokia suite back up that I keep on my laptop……I would imagine too many for a SIM card anyway.
Should also point out that I used the same method of installing contacts onto an E7 that I use to have until the USB port went T*ts up. However my car also use to display contact names from the E7perfectly.
As said previously, I have just re-flashed my phone with a new image Version 20.2020.36.2.203.1 so all historic data has gone from the phone.
Give me a few more days and I will look into having another go via the SUU testing download.

Happy new year to one and all.
As promised, I had another go with my N900 to see if the remote SIM would work.
I re-flashed the phone, downloaded the CSSU testing and updated etc imported the contacts via blue-tooth from an old N96 onto the N900.yes the built in car display shows the phone numbers, however still no Names.
I will now re-flash the phone (getting good at this bit) once again back to standard, and wait and see if any more updates come along.

@luf:

Whoops... just noticed that you'd updated your post. I usually watch only for new posts to a thread; my bad then.

EDIT4: It works win xp -> N900 ok with Microsoft BT stack. However I had the same problem with N900 -> win xp. I see the same error in syslog which means that win BT side doesn't support COM port over BT (RFCOMM). When I configure "Incoming COM port" for BT on win xp side I'm able to send file also from N900 -> win xp

I'll try also the BT stack you're using (WIDCOMM - under Win XP)

Hell no, not that incoming / outgoing COM port thingy again. I fought with that when i had my N73, using Symbian OPM. Will test...

EDIT5: N900 -> win xp with WIDCOMM is working for me. However I don't find a way to try OPP win xp -> N900. obexFTP win xp -> N900 using "send to" function has the problem that it tries put it into root directory for obexFTP where it's forbidden (in stock too)

However merlin1991 has the same problem as you so maybe he can provide me access to some test case.

Regarding the root directory: Using Widcomm 6.5 i have the ability to browse for the actual directory where the file(s) to be send should be stored. But folder discovery isn't working too. I've made screenshots a while ago; will attach them when back home.
