Phone Book and Text Message Manager problem |
zajo Joined: Nov 30, 2002 Posts: 2 PM |
First of all let me say that I already found tons of useful information in this forum. But couldn't find an answer to this problem: the PBTM connects with my T68i and it says the synchronization is just fine, however it shows an empty phone book (my phone has lots of contacts). When I tried to add a contact, nothing happened. Any ideas?
(Note, my infrared connection is fine, I can download stuff to the phone and PBTM correctly recognizes the phone and does not complain about the connection...)
Thanks,
Zajo |

Have you ever got it to work yet? I'm having the same problem here. I don't have any luck on getting help in this forum. Any idea? |

if the list on PBTM is still empty after a "successful" sync, check the file (open in notepad) named \Program Files\Ericsson\Communications Suite\Phonebook & Text Message Manager\Data\ecsmca.xml
you will see an entry that looks like:
- <PHONE name="Arnold's T68" modelid="1130201-BVT68" id="350324713418309" smsno="+639180000101">
<STORE id="350324713418309" />
<STORE id="350324713418309001" />
<STORE id="350324713418309003" />
<STORE id="350324713418309002" />
<STORE id="515030401376541" />
</PHONE>
</PHONES>
Your phone should be listed there. Is it?
For every contact, you will see an entry like:
- <ADDRESSENTRY status="2" X-ECSMCA-LUID="143ED201A2BC4318A2B6E22E9153A88D" X-IRMC-LUID="">
<VCARD>BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:2.1 N:M;Rene TEL;HOME:+61397640450 END:VCARD</VCARD>
<NOTES />
</ADDRESSENTRY>
Do you see any?

I encountered this problem with PBTM version 2.0.157, use 2.0.183 and all these weird problems will be gone! As for me, it works. |

check out the very first post on the this forum's sticky thread by arnoldc: http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=3497&forum=17&start=120. it lists official and popular third-party software that works with your phone. |

@arnoldc..The answers are Yes and No. I have the first entry which contains the phone name and etc. alright, but the second part which contains the contact information looks different. I remember I sent you my xml file before. Could it be that I copied the phone list from my old SIM card which used with Nokia 8210 before??? Thanks.

I have the same problem of names not appearing in Phone Book although they are all there in the .xml file. I'd like to try version .183 of the software but I can't find it anywhere on the Sony Ericsson site - all I get is 160. Any ideas where to find it? |

I had this same problem with PB&TMM a while ago (Win95 related?). The solution is in the ECSMCA.XML file. I noticed I had double entries for all my contacts in the <CLIENT><STORES><STORE name="STRME"... section: Once as <ADDRESSENTRY> with <INDEX>, <NAME> etc. and once as <ADDRESSENTRY> with <VCARD>. I deleted the <ADDRESSENTRY>s that had the <INDEX> format, left the <VCARD> ones. That fixed it. Be sure to make a "Pre-hack" copy of the ECSMCA.XML file before editing.
I hope this solution works for all those with the same problem too...

I'm getting the same problem also after I got my new T68i (I was using my T68mi before).
My address entries only showed , there are no entries with on them.
My software version is 2.0.157, what is the latest version and where can I download it???
I'm trying to fix the entry problem by erasing them all and re-sync everything.

Yeah, does anybody know the latest PBTM version number and where you can download it from?
Can you only get PBTM from R4APackage2.exe download? Only it's 17MB+ and I don't need all the other crap thats in that package.
Can PBTM be download as a separate app?
If so where from? |
