Hopefully some bright Maemo wizard will come up with a fix for this -- seems very odd to not have it on an open-source handset!
DaveQB Translate this message to:	Posted 2009-12-09 - 07:53 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Andrew, I too hope many improvements are added as we go. The Maemo 5 platform definitely fosters rapid development, so I am sure it will come along soon. I am just disappointed that Memotoo listed the N900 as a compatible device without doing its homework.

Thomas - Webmaster Memotoo Translate this message to:	Posted 2009-12-17 - 09:29 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Hi all I have search a solution to sync Memotoo and Maemo and I think I have found but I can't test it because the application don't work with the Maemo SDK. So can you try to install syncevolution ?? https://www.memotoo.com/softs/syncevolution.install So is it ???
DaveQB Translate this message to:	Posted 2009-12-17 - 14:16 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 That's for Maemo 4. Someone tried to get it compiled for Maemo 5 but failed. http://maemo.org/community/maemo-developers/syncevolution_in_fremantle/?org_open... SyncML is missing in Maemo 5 currently. This is the problem. The only way to sync is to use the Mail for Exchange. www.nuevasync.com/ has it working for N900/Google apparently. I am about to try it out.
Obelix Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-09 - 01:26 Subject: Re: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Hi everybody, I have the N900 since a few days and I would like to synchronize my informations (contacts, tasks, etc) but I haven't got a google account ! How can I do ? Thanks for your help
DaveQB Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-09 - 15:50 Subject: Re: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Yeah I wish too. I am using https://www.nuevasync.com/ to sync calendar. Works great! No task, notes etc though
Obelix Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-09 - 18:30 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Thanks for your help but NuevaSync is not enough... I would like to synchronize all
DaveQB Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-10 - 23:34 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Don't think you are on your own. I have many many tasks and notes and need them sync'd too. But I'd take calendar syncing over no syncing at all.
DaveQB Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-10 - 23:36 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 What I don't understand is the site still advertises it works with the N900 That's blatant false advertising for revenue. Very disappointing. I probably won't be renewing my subscription if this lying keeps up!
gerd Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-11 - 10:09 Subject: Re: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Syncevolution has been ported to Maemo 5 ( http://people.debian.org/~ovek/maemo/README). You can sync Contacts, Tasks, Notes and Calendar entries. Also the synchronisation of multiple calendars is supported. This ( http://internettabletblog.de/2009/12/30/synchronisationsgeschichten-4-dem-n900-s...) german blogpost contains a review and a tutorial on how to use syncevolution on Maemo 5.
Thomas - Webmaster Memotoo Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-11 - 17:49 Subject: Re: Re: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Thanks gerd for the information I don't have a Nokia N900 (I have just the SDK of Maemo) so I can't test syncevolution and I can't find a solution to install it easily. If you have information or script that I can add to Memotoo, I will be happy to add them in Memotoo. I have contacted the developpers of SyncEvolution, to help me to find a easily solution.
christz Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-12 - 11:10 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Installing syncevolution: 1. Open the Application manager. 2. Choose "Application catalogs" -> "New" 3. Enter: Catalog name: syncevolution Web address: http://people.debian.org/~ovek/maemo/ Distribution: ./ Components: Disabled: not selected and hit "Save". 4. Install syncevolution using the Application manager. It's in the "Office" category. Using it: At the moment there is no GUI or applet available. So you have to use the command line.
DaveQB Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-15 - 04:35 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Thomas, Can you help get this little app configure? http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=40278 Can you post configs that work with memotoo? That would be great. Then memotoo can have the N900 on their site as another phone that is supported..
Obelix Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-15 - 09:55 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Hi, I'm working on a wiki documentation to synchornize Memotoo with a N900... so please wait Actually, I have a synchorinsation Memotoo <=> N900 with SyncEvolution... Best regards
Thomas - Webmaster Memotoo Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-16 - 11:10 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Thanks Obelix for the wiki, I have added it in Memotoo. DaveQB, you can found it here: http://wiki.memotoo.com/wiki/Sync_Maemo_5_/_Nokia_N900
Obelix Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-16 - 11:21 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Thanks Thomas, for me it works well now with 6 calendars
DaveQB Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-17 - 08:32 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Thanks everyone. Looks to be working sweet with my setup [just one calendar and notes and tasks]
Andrew Currie Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-17 - 15:42 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 FYI I'm fairly certain that there's a bug in SyncEvolution where the phone numbers of contacts randomly get remapped to different fields (home/mobile/work) during sync: http://syncevolution.org/documentation/known-issues DaveQB, if you're not syncing your contacts could you tell us how are you maintaining them on your N900? I'm also interested in purchasing an N900 sometime this year, to use with Memotoo, of course!
DaveQB Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-18 - 00:31 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 I have stayed away from Contact sync'ing with Memotoo. Got myself in a mess with it before on my N95, so I have just transferred by N95 contact list over [623 contacts] and make sure I run the little backup app on the N900 regularly to backup Contacts and all the other things it backs up. Restoring is quite smooth. This works for me, as I have mostly just phones numbers on my Phones contact list and mostly emails in my Email clients addressbook. I do want to merge the two one day...
Peter T Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-20 - 21:15 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 I have set things up as per the wiki and done a manual sync - all went well. However, I can't get the desktop button to work. The terminal window flashes up and disappears too quickly to read and I'm not sure where the log might be. I have managed to make a screen shot of part of the session and it looks to me as though the output is what I get if I issue the command without a config name - but I can't see why it might be doing that. I carefully created the file by copying and pasting the text from the wiki over an ssh session from my PC, so there shouldn't be any typos. Just to be sure, I retyped the 'Exec' line but that hasn't helped. Any ideas anyone? Ideally, I'd use cron for a scheduled sync but the N900 doesn't seem to have it. Rgrds Peter PS: having checked again, I lost my calendar data and had to do a recovery sync.
DaveQB Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-20 - 22:54 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Peter, Yes the desktop link is incorrect. I have a solution to that, that I am going to post today and perhaps change the wiki if I have permissions. Hold tight and your solution will be here.. But I can definately say the desktop link would not have whiped your calendar. It just fails cause osso-xterm only accepts one argument.
Obelix Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-20 - 23:32 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 What's the output when you execute this command : syncevolution memotoo Are you using the "catorise" application ?
DaveQB Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-20 - 23:38 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Ok I have managed to update the wiki with the correct way to create the desktop button. Please have a read and report back if it doesn't work or you can't follow what I have written.
Peter T Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-21 - 22:25 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Thanks DaveQB - I don't know what wiped my local calendar - I was playing around with a lot of things and something led to the empty calandar (but I have a vahgue idea that I will need to look into). Thanks for the updated script but your message reminded me of the one parameter thing that I have come across before. I simply put quotes round "syncevolution memotoo" and it now works. I haven't tried the script yet - but I have a feeling the shebang line should read: #!/bin/ash - as the N900 doesn't have bash, IIRC I will test it later to see - I like the look of it. Thanks for the assistance - also to Obelix for the reply (I'm not using anything called 'catorise' - I haven't heard of it) Rgrds Peter
DaveQB Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-21 - 22:46 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Good pick up Peter. I have bash on my phone, first thing I installed, but yes I meant to make that shebang #!/bin/sh And yes I have just come to realise in the maemo forums that you cn use quotes to get around the single argument issue with osso-xterm. Thanks Peter aka filbert?
Peter T Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-21 - 23:57 Subject: Re: Re: N900 / Maemo5 You're welcome - one more thing.. read on ash doesn't support -n "/usr/local/bin/memotoo.sh: read: line 4: illegal option -n" My scripting is too rusty to suggest an alternative (except 'press enter to continue') Rgrds Peter (yes, I do use 'filbert' as a nickname in a few places)

Obelix Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-24 - 21:41 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 > I have Calendar and Tasks sync working well now. great news... for me, all tasks are added to the day of synchronisation !

Peter T Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-25 - 22:30 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Two things: 1) I can't get notes/memos to sync. The notes on my N900 don't get uploaded nor do the memos on Memotoo get downloaded. The wiki says set the uri to 'pnote' whereas the Memotoo sync page says set it to 'note'. I have tried both. Has anyone any suggestions? I can't see any errors in the logs. 2) I tried to set syncML to use the https web address (I'd rather use SSL) but I get an error: [INFO] CurlTransport Failure: SSL certificate problem, verify that the CA cert is OK. Details: error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed The Memotoo cert is issued by Equifax and Equifax is in the N900 as a CA, which is about as far as I my knowledge takes me - If I log on to the https site with MicroB, that seems to be verified OK. I can't work out where the certs are stored on he N900, it might just be a case of adding the path to in config.ini but the blurb says it is using the system default. Again, has anyone any suggestions? Rgrds Peter
DaveQB Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-26 - 12:30 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Peter T, 1. I don't know what it could be. I use pnote as the wiki states and it worked first go and every time since then 2. Read: ~/.config/syncevolution/memotoo/config.ini there is info in there about ignoring cert checks. Look at SSLVerifyServer and SSLVerifyHost. I have https working fine
??? Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-01-31 - 22:48 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 I can get everything working except multiple calendars - this step : QUOTE : To sync many calendars, duplicate the calendar config file with this command: $ syncevolution --configure --template memotoo --sync-property username="LOGIN" --sync-property password="PASSWORD" --sync-property clientAuthType=basic --sync-property syncURL=" https://sync.memotoo.com/syncML" --source-property uri="REMOTE_CALENDAR_NAME" --source-property evolutionsource="LOCAL_CALENDAR_NAME" CONFIG_NAME calendar LOGIN: your login PASSWORD: your password REMOTE_CALENDAR_NAME: cal.XXXXX LOCAL_CALENDAR_NAME: Name of the calendar in the phone CONFIG_NAME: Unique name of the config name (ex: memotoo_birthdays) END QUOTE Does this mean I have to make multiple config files or put these same lines multiple times in the one config file - which didn't work for me ...
Mr. E Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-02-09 - 04:54 Subject: Re: Re: N900 / Maemo5 Very helpful thread I used to fill in a few blanks to get things working. Is anyone else having the problem of calendars on the N900 'disappearing' periodically? I have setup two calendars that are id:3 and id:4 each to sync with different calendars in memotoo. They disappear and re-appear for no apparent reason. Sometimes a restart will 'fix' it temporarily, sometimes not. Sometimes just waiting 'fixes' it. I don't have a problem with the built-in calendars (N900 id:1 and cal_ti_calendar_private id:2). They both remain regardless, but I don't want to use these for syncing - purposely. I have googled and searched maemo forums until I forgot what I was searching for and it seems no one is having this problem. I deleted ~/.calendar/calendardb to have it recreated, but that didn't have any effect - in fact, id:3 and id:4 magically reappeared after I deleted it once so it seems there is something somewhere else. Also, the UI will show the calendars sometimes when syncevolution doesn't see them when running syncevolution w/out any commands/arguments. Sometimes the calendars won't show in the UI. I'd hate to re-flash this yet again if possible. I have a nearly 99% perfect build going - syncevolution is the only devel package I'm running. Obviously, something is corrupted somewhere - just need to know what besides removing calendardb will take care of the issue. Any help would be much appreciated. BTW @??? - multiple config files. Just replace the references (i.e. LOGIN, PASSWORD, etc) with the correct info. That's all that command is doing - using memotoo template for each additional. To sync, type 'syncevolution whatevernameyouchose' for each.

Andrew Currie Translate this message to:	Posted 2010-03-06 - 15:18 Subject: Re: N900 / Maemo5 FWiW, the wiki might need some updating... I have a N900 on loan from Nokia, and set up SyncEvolution a few days ago. The repository has moved from estamos.de but a GUI version of the app is available by activating "Extras-devel". You can read more about my install on my blog, if you're interested: http://openattitude.com/2010/03/05/heaven-and-hell-with-syncml/ The procedure is fairly painless now!
