added note about photos in contacts

Line 
1 Notes:
2 ------
3 - Syncronisation of notes doesn't work with newer Sony Ericsson cell phones.
4   If your phone is crashing or if you receive an error like "Request failed"
5   please try "--filter-objtype note". (( FIXME: --filter-objtype was removed ))
6
7 - Some cellphones like the SE K750i or K800i are not able to synchronize photos.
8
9 - It seems that some phones (e.g. SE K750i) accept EXDATE attributes,
10   but cannot delete them. You have to delete the whole event and create a new
11   one without EXDATE attributes.

16 bluetooth example configuration:
17 --------------------------------
18 <config>
19   <connectmedium>bluetooth</connectmedium>
20   <btunit>$MAC</btunit>
21   <btchannel>$CHANNEL</btchannel>
22 </config>
23
24
25 This is an example for a connection via bluetooth. Replace $MAC with the mac address of your
26 phone. You get it with "hcitool scan" (your phone must be visible).

29 user@laptop:~> hcitool scan
30 Scanning ...
31         00:16:20:33:33:33    K750i <--- $MAC

34 Now we need to find out the channel of the IrMC Server. Try "sdptool browse $MAC".
35 We hopefully get a output like this:

38 <snip>
39 Service Name: OBEX IrMC Sync Server
40 Service RecHandle: 0x10008
41 Service Class ID List:
42   "IrMC Sync" (0x1104)
43 Protocol Descriptor List:
44   "L2CAP" (0x0100)
45   "RFCOMM" (0x0003)
46     Channel: 8      <--- $CHANNEL
47   "OBEX" (0x0008)
48 Profile Descriptor List:
49   "IrMC Sync" (0x1104)
50     Version: 0x0100
51 </snip>
52
53
54 Replace $CHANNEL with "8" and your config should now look like this:
55
56 <config>
57   <donttellsync>false</donttellsync>
58   <connectmedium>bluetooth</connectmedium>
59   <btunit>00:16:20:33:33:33</btunit>
60   <btchannel>8</btchannel>
61 </config>

65 ir example configuration:
66 -------------------------
67 <config>
68   <connectmedium>ir</connectmedium>
69   <irname>$IDENTIFIER</irname>
70 </config>
71
72 We need to find out the device identifier. Start the infrared daemon (irda) and try
73 "irdadump".

80 <snip>
81
82 In this case $IDENTIFIER is "Sony Ericss". Your config should now look like this:
83
84 <config>
85   <donttellsync>false</donttellsync>
86   <connectmedium>ir</connectmedium>
87   <irname>Sony Ericss</irname>
88 </config>
