First, have you tried using one of the existing Sony Ericsson
configurations before running the script?
Let me quote
http://syncevolution.org/development/sync-phone:
syncevo-phone-config should be the last resort after checking
the Wiki and trying out configs for related devices.
In this case,
http://syncevolution.org/wiki/sony-ericcson-k750i might be
a good starting point.
Instructions for adding it are in the "GTK sync-UI" section of the
"sync-phone" page.
After updating the phone's firmware I used syncevo-phone-config
but
it's painfully slow:
The first 54 configs need roughly 2 seconds each for testing; the
phone says "synchronizing" for a blink, then beeps (like "no
success")
and does the next test.
With test 55/1188 it seems to actually work. The following message is
printed on the display: "Synchronizing, sending contacts" and
afterwards the phone beeps like "success".
But from that point on, on the phone nothing happens. The script seems
to freeze, but goes on awefully slowly: It takes about 5 minutes to
test each configuration, i.e. to print the line "Start 56/1188 test"
and so on.
I have no idea why it becomes so slow after that.
5000 minutes are 3.5 days - can anyone think of a workaround, or
will
I have to leave my phone next to my laptop for half a week....? :-(
Where should the successfully (?) tested configuration go?
You can run "syncevo-phone-config" with the --source=addressbook
parameter to have it focus on just contacts. With that parameter and
--create it would give you a working config once it finds something for
contacts.
Then you can continue experimenting with calendar, if you want.
