My Way of Life

Nokia N70 and Linux (N78 also works)

by Alejandro el 17 de Dec. de 2007, en GNU, Mobile Phones, Nokia N70, Open Source, linux

I recently installed Linux in my computer since Windows gave me some problems (and I had too many games which distract me sooooo much).

Sometimes I connect my phone to my computer to save pictures and get some music on the phone so when I realized I couldn’t exchange files I got a bit worried and started to do some research ;) I finally found a package that can be used with phones regardless the connection you use (Bluetoot®, USB or IR).

I installed this 2 packages<

alejandro@matos:~$ sudo aptitude install obexftp obextool

After installation, run this commands:
sudo obexftp -u

from help page: -u, –usb [<intf>] connect to a usb interface or list interfaces

I get this screen:

alejandro@matos:~$ sudo obexftp -u
Found 2 USB OBEX interfaces
Interface 0:
Manufacturer: Nokia
Product: Nokia N70
Interface description: SYNCML-SYNC
Interface 1:
Manufacturer: Nokia
Product: Nokia N70
Interface description: PC Suite Services
Use '-u interface_number' to connect
Nothing to do. Use --help for help.

So, I know that I have the interface to use, I run

alejandro@matos:~$ sudo obexftp -u 1 -l
Connecting...done
Receiving "(null)"... <?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE folder-listing SYSTEM "obex-folder-listing.dtd"
[ <!ATTLIST folder mem-type CDATA #IMPLIED>
<!ATTLIST folder label CDATA #IMPLIED> ]>
<folder-listing version="1.0">
<folder name="C:" user-perm="RW" mem-type="DEV" label="Memoria del teléfono"/>
<folder name="E:" user-perm="RW" mem-type="MMC" label="NOKIA N70"/>
</folder-listing>done
Disconnecting...done

Now, I run the GUI using the obextool:

sudo obextool --obexcmd "obexftp -u 1"

And this beautiful screen comes to life ;)
