That is a limitation of the data made available by obex-client via
D-Bus, right? If I remember correctly, PBAP has a unique ID for each
item. It's not stable across sessions and thus not particularly useful
for syncing. Probably not worth exposing.
obex-client does actually expose the ID, but as you say, it's not stable
across different sessions, so there's no much to do with it.
As the LUID is not used for anything, how about simply enumerating
all
available contacts? That would be simpler than looking at the FN
property.
How would that be? I thought the sync engine relied on the backend LUID
to be able to merge changes.
When I tried the new backend with my HTC Desire, I only got as far as
a
"Permission denied" from obex-client. The obex-client debug output seems
to imply that it is the phone which rejects the access:
$ /usr/lib/obexd/obex-client -d -s

Any idea what might be necessary to get access to the phone book?
There's nothing in the phone's UI to enable it (Android 2.2, HTC Sense).
You probably need to connect HFP first, otherwise some phones might
reject the PBAP session. If you're interested, I suggest you try oFono.
Just make sure you have "Enable=Gateway" in /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf
and then you can use ofono/test/enable-modem to connect HFP.
