Nokia E71

From MarcsHomepage

Some bits and pieces about my current phone. A Nokia E71.

Python for Symbian

Well, at least a serious reason to consider the evil company from Finland:

Usefull apps

Issues

Google sync

The HowTo on the Google sync page is not up to date. Mailsync does not work with MailForExchange, Tasks can't be synced and the Google Calendar does not sync the overlay calenders (just the primary one). The Google Calendar app from Google is slightly sucky, so no option either.

Memory card

Had some memory card issues with the phone "forgetting" the card, which led to nice hickups with apps, who had their data or config installed on that card. Can be fixed by powercycling.

Installer issues

Apparently there where broken files from a failed install, which led to strange errors about failed installation on boot. This can be solved by deleting files from a hidden directory in "private/10202dce" (after you mount the phone as a mass storage device).
