Setting up your phone

This is generally for Symbian 3rd edition phones, and N80ie specifically. Other phones would have similar ways of doing it.

On your phone go to «Connect.», «Sync». And select «Options»,«New sync profile». When the phone asks you if you want to copy the existing profile, answer «No».

Give the profile any name you like:

Enter the «Applications» menu. First select «Contacts», change «Include in sync» to «Yes» and enter «card» in «Remote database»:

Hit «Back». Now select «Calendar», change «Include in sync» to «Yes» and enter «cal» in «Remote database». Hit «Back» twice.

Now enter «Connection settings». Enter your «Host address» and «Port». Remember the serverURI we entered while getting funambol running? This is what we are talking about. So in our example we would enter Host address:

http://your.server.com/funambol/ds

and Port:

8080

Next enter «User name» and «Password». Use the same username and password that you added to funambol earlier.

I also choose to change «Accept all sync reqs.» to «Yes» for my own convenience, but this is optional. You can also change the access point to a specific access point if you only want to use one. Leave all other settings alone though. Hit «Back» twice.

Now choose «Options», «Synchronize» on the sync profile you just created. You will get an error stating that you have entered an invalid username and password.

Now go back to the funambol admin tool. Double-click on «Devices» and hit «Search». You should now be able to se a device called IMEI: in the list.

Double-click on «Principals» and hit «Add». Under the user column hit «Search» and click on the username that you specified earlier. Under the device column hit «Search» and select the IMEI item you found in the last step. Hit «Add Principal»

Back on your phone choose «Options», «Synchronize» on the sync profile you created earlier. This time the phone should synchronize properly.
