syncing sony erricson phone with linux

2009-09-17 Thread Micha Feigin
Is it possible in a stable way to sync a sony erricson phone (k800i) with linux 
(calendar and contacts)?

I tried to google but all I  found was seriously outdated, the main current
reference seems to be opensync which I tried at the time but it failed
miserably and it doesn't seem like the version number went anywhere.

Regrettably what I'm doing now is to use my phone explorer in windows and
transfer information via google calendar but it's a horrible solution.

I'm currently using iceowl for calendar and I haven't found a descent contacts
manager, but I'm open to suggestions on both (preferably not gnome/kde and if
it's  a mail program it has to support my own mail directory which AFAIK
neither mozilla, evolution nor kmail do, I'm currently using claws for mail
which is great but doesn't have descent contacts support)

thanks

Hi, I'm not sure if I can help you. I have k750i and dell notebook (d520)
with infrared port. So far I was able to sync only over USB cable with
multisync. Many people suggested to get bluetooth, because of better
support, which I refused.

There are a lot of infos you can find on tuxmobile. May be you can subscribe
to this group. Another interesting mailing list is the syncml (opensync)
one.

Have a look here

Not sure if this is an option for you, but I use wengophone on an
irregular basis for that.
