One other thing i had problems with when trying to download midi's from my laptop to my T300 over IR was that if the data rate of your PC's IR is too high there will be problems during the transfer. I lowered the transfer rate to 96 on my laptop and everything worked fine.

It's probably a hardware problem on your laptop. SE phones fully implements Fast IR protocol and supports all the way up to 4 mbps, even if the data transfer won't go that fast. (This is unlike Nokia where you always have to manually set the IR speed.)

I had problems with downloading midi grom my laptop ti my T300 via IR. Solution was to drop the data rate of the laptops IR port to about 9600 and it worked fine for all downloads, pics, midi etc.

Hi guys,

I've found a way to backup your phone book from your T300:)!

Just go on your T300 to Phone Book > Advanced > Send all. (You'll need a computer connection [cable/IrDa])

There will be a file transferred to your computer (it was on my desktop) named Whole Phonebook.vcf.
Do NOT try to import this backup file with Outlook or something! (believe me, I tried and it only imports the first contact)

If you want to restore the backup (for example after a Master Reset) just rightclick on the backup file (there must be a computer connection [cable/IrDa]) and send it to your T300 as if it was an image or a game or a ringtone.

NOTE: If you restore the backup while the contacts are still on the T300, duplicates will be added.

Enjoy

only the phonebook and the pictures attached to your contacts can be saved in one go
the ringtones you have to save one by one, and AFAIK it's not possible to save the settings (eg before a master reset)

how?
I think only the whole book can be saved, sync (where only the changed/new contacts are transferred) is not possible on this phone, it's not implemented in the firmware

T300 can send event to Pocket PC and Pocket PC can send task to T300 by using IR. I dun think this is new for you all but i never saw anyone say about this. But since i have PPC, event function at T300 will be less important.

The cable will only allow you to send from PC to phone.

For sending from phone to PC you will need Irda.
