No Vertu phones

For users of additional phones, people might be interested in this.

It seems that people who choose non-Apple phones will not be left out in the cold

superleccy · Mar 16, 2007, 10:32 AM

Nokia N80. About flippin' time.

It always seem to be the minute that Apple get around to adding support for the phone I currently have, I'm about to upgrade to the newer model.

Ah well, there are some good scripts out there for SE phones, so all's not entirely lost!

cubbie5150 · Mar 16, 2007, 10:40 AM

Huh, the OP list includes the SE k70i, but I use a K790a....wonder if it'll work anyway; I'll have to try over the weekend...

Data · Mar 16, 2007, 10:42 AM

Hi all, i tried to browse a nokia N 70 phone with the usb cable attached, until now i was unable to browse the device or it would even crash my macbook if i tried to open the device, is that now supported to ?

qubex · Mar 16, 2007, 10:43 AM

I've employed a variety of hacks to iSync my Nokia N80 since I bought it in May 2006. Almost a year later, I finally get official support... though recently I upgraded to a Nokia E61, also supported!

Wouldn't it be sensible for Apple and/or cellphone manufacturers to release decent iSync plugins for their phones whenever new ones are released? I'm betting that if I run out and buy a Nokia N95 when it is finally released in a few weeks it won't be supported on iSync by neither Apple nor Nokia... but within hours the correct script will turn up on the Internet, heroically cludged together with virtually no tools and no quality control, released "as is" to glue the two halves of my technological crown together.

I truly respect these people, but their enormous efforts shouldn't be necessary. If it takes a motivated reverse-engineer less than a day to get iSync and a swanky new model of cellphone talking and syncing, it certainly wouldn't absorb any noticeable resources inside a major telecoms multinational.

Why don't companies just do it themselves, and avoid the angst and embarrassment?

JoolsG4 · Mar 16, 2007, 10:44 AM

If you were disappointed to find that your shiny new Sony Ericsson phone wasn't included this time, this might make you happy!

iSync 2.3 and 2.4 Phone Plugins for the following new SE phones are available here:

Sony Ericsson K320
Sony Ericsson K510
Sony Ericsson K550
Sony Ericsson K618
Sony Ericsson K810
Sony Ericsson W300
Sony Ericsson W610
Sony Ericsson W700
Sony Ericsson W710
Sony Ericsson W850
Sony Ericsson W880
Sony Ericsson Z610
Sony Ericsson Z550
Sony Ericsson Z710
Sony Ericsson Z558
Sony Ericsson V630

http://mobile.feisar.com/plugins.html

These plugins are actually being demonstrated by Sony Ericsson themselves on their stand at the CeBIT 2007 techno-fair.

dextertangocci · Mar 16, 2007, 10:45 AM

Samsung D600, D900, no X820

MacSamurai · Mar 16, 2007, 10:45 AM

aaaaah the phones of yesterday...brings back memories

Spanky Deluxe · Mar 16, 2007, 10:52 AM

Weren't all of these unofficially supported already? I've had my N80 syncing all the time by only making one tiny edit to a plist file.

koobcamuk · Mar 16, 2007, 10:54 AM

This is not really 'news'... it even has this list on the isync site. Oh well. No good rumours I guess...

It'll be a nice day when they get a phone from Sharp supported. No biggy.

jvega1976 · Mar 16, 2007, 10:55 AM

This suck!!!

There's a guy here that sells that kind of thing ....

Anyway,we're all just waiting for iphone now, aren't we?

I dunno... at first, I was really looking forward to it. It's still a year away, here in England. Lame. Good things come to those who wait, I guess. Although I never really wait that long.

I just got a sharp 903SH, and whilst it doesn't have isync, it does have a 3.2MP camera with 2x optical zoom - and it's 3G, which is great for emails and/or any net usage.

CaptainScarlet · Mar 16, 2007, 11:01 AM

I doubt Blackjack will be supported any time soon....

Alex3231 · Mar 16, 2007, 11:02 AM

I have a motorola K1m (MotoKRZR) and it doesn't sync with iSync...why is this?

zephead · Mar 16, 2007, 11:05 AM

Still no Samsung Sync (A707) support... Anyone have one of those that they got to work with iSync?

calvin2006 · Mar 16, 2007, 11:06 AM

I have the Red Motorola RAZR v3m but iSync says my device is not supported. Anyone else find this to be a problem? Or know of a plug in I can download?

N10248 · Mar 16, 2007, 11:12 AM

YAY, my V3i works via bluetooth now, it used to crash the phone when i tried to browse it.

Alex3231 · Mar 16, 2007, 11:14 AM

And that is a K1m Krzr phone...SO I'm confused
