I suppose user installed lib should go to /var/lib/install ... but it's up to you really !
I suppose it's my fault : I have compiled gnokii with ical support & I had to compile libical too (I have a pb with gnokii dialing 6230i with 6510 driver)

I suppose then that as I compiled phonelink against this version of gnokii it inherited the lib list at link & so says it needs libical although it needs libgnokii that needs libical ...

Anyway I stripped libical & zipped it so you have it ...
don't forget to create a link with "ln -s libical.so.0.0.0 libical.so.0" with the right path (wherever you put it /usr/lib or else ...)

I suppose I should build a phonelink package with the libs and the links ....
Fred

Thank's

That was it!

I put libical in /var/lib/install/usr/lib and made the softlink.

Now 0.1b works and starts from Extras menu....

It would be cool to read contcts from phone and transfer them to Phonelink or gpe-contacts. Would it be possible?

Glad it worked for you ...
I suppose it's not ready yet for broad diffusion

phonelink doesn't manage any contact
The "clean" way to achieve this would be to import vcard from the phone via libgnokii then use gpe-contact to import them ...
A much better way would be to use mlsync if your phone is compatible AND the 770 can act as a server ...

Fred

OK

Phone is a natural place for contcts as you are using it anyway. So it would be nice to utilize that info in tablet too.

If you have a new version of Phonelink it would be nice to try it.

I managed to move contacs from my Nokia 6630 phone to 770 gpe-contacts application. Here are the steps:

- take the memory card from 770 and install it to 6630
- in 6630:

open Contacts
Options -> Mark/Unmark -> Mark all -> Select
Options -> Copy -> To memory card -> Select
Yes

- After copying is complete move memory card back to 770
- Open gpe-contacts in 770
- Contacts -> Tools -> Import VCard
- Browse to: Memory card -> Others -> Contacts
- there are your contacts!!
- Just select and Open and your contact is moved to gpe-contacts

It's relatively simple procedure, would be better if you could move all contacts to gpe-contacts with one selection, not one by one..

Same principle seems to work with Microsoft Outlook:

- Connect 770 with USB-cable to PC
- Open Outlook
- Open contact you want to move to 770
- File -> Save As...
- Browse to 770 Memory card folder you prefer
- Select Save as Type: vCard Files
- Save
- Safely remove USM Mass Storage Device
- Unplug USB-cable
- select and Open your contact from Memory Card in gpe-contacts applcation

You can also move Outlook Calendar events to gpe-calendar with the same principle. Just use iCaledar Format in Outlook when saving event

I've added a menu for setting an alarm on the phone :
With my Nokia 6230i it works for setting but not for unsetting (libgnokii here)
I "clean" the number passed to the phone (get rid of spaces, parenthesis and replace + by 00)
Anyone willing to try ?

v0.2 worked very well here. Setting the alarm clock is untestet (not implemented for my 6100 modell).

Very good I'm glad it works for you !

Does this package require any additional packages? I cannot get it to come up.
