[ubuntu-uk] Configuring Wammu
Trying to configure Wammu for my Nokia X3-02 and it's asking me for the NAME of the device (USB port) the phone is attached to. How and where do I find this name? Cheers Gordon -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Hello Gordon, I think your best bet is to try lsusb | grep nokia You will get a result which resembles the string below, but will say Nokia x3-02 or something similar. I presume the software is either after the ID or the Device Number.

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Configuring Wammu
You can use -i for case insensitivity in grep. But that's the wrong thing to do here. Wammu wants the serial port, not the USB address. This will be something like /dev/ttyS0 or maybe /dev/ttyACM0. You might be able to find the correct address by looking at the last few lines output by dmesg, or by trial-and-error. Neil. P.S. Sorry for the brevity, this is typed on my phone.

Cheers Gordon Thanks for the replies people - it appears from the Wammu phone database that Wammu only supports connection to my phone (Nokia X3) via blue tooth - which my laptop doesn't have! *@%$£!

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Configuring Wammu
I managed to get wammu to talk to my N95 (not 8gb model) by the USB cable. It is a while ago now but I think I had to make sure the phone was in the right mode first - the mode where it tries to talk to the Nokia Suite (our whatever it's called now).

(Getting an android phone when the contract comes up for renewal, but that's not for another 9 months) I see, wasn't aware it needed the serial, On the other note, you can get a bluetooth dongle for next to nothing and I've yet to come across one that doesn't work with Ubuntu. Something like this (1) will probably serve the purpose admirably. For £1.22 delivered you can't really go wrong, even if it doesn't work!! 1: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BLUETOOTH-USB-2-0-EDR-DONGLE-MINI-TINY-WIRELESS-ADAPTER-/180608320618?pt=UK_Computing_Networking_SMhash=item2a0d18446a Kris -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
