10.4: Add iSync support for Sony-Ericsson V600i
Authored by: dani76 on Aug 19, '05 01:35:10PM

Hi,

thank you very much for the hints. My big trouble is that iSync don't want to work with the K600i " ... K600i is not supported by iSync ... ". I tried to modify the file "MetaClasses.plist" as follows

<key>com.sony-ericsson.K600</key>
...
<array>
<string>Sony Ericsson+Sony Ericsson 600</string>
<string>Sony Ericsson+Sony Ericsson 600i</string>
<string>Sony Ericsson+Sony Ericsson K600i</string>
<array>
...

But iSync still don't want to work with the K600i.

Did I right understood your instructions? Where Did I made a mistake?
I would very appreciate any kind of help. thank you!

regards, daniel

Make sure to try updating the AlternativeNames key/string further down in the .pllist as follow:

<key>AlternativeNames</key>
<string>K600i</string>
I can't vouch for the K600i; I only have a SFR/Vodafone V600i... Then delete your phone from your Bluetooth devices, then discover/pair it again. If all goes well, the first tick box with iSync synchronization should be enabled. Hope this helps, Yann.

I had the same trouble - but from a thread on another mac site I seems that v600i and k600i are actually the same thing - therefore, following the advice to the letter (i.e. using v600i not k600i) it worked a treat. Top marks (like 11 or something)

weird, it appears you also need the phone plugin from JoolsG4's method - i took it out and the K600i lost its info in iSync.

So I'd probably advise to try JoolsG4's method on its own first and if you have no joy do the plist tweakage as well...

That combination (do both, in that order) worked for me. Your mileage may vary.

Oh, and address book dialing and sms doesn't work and never has with this phone.
