Jan 26, 02:29 PM: Nokia 6600 and Linux

Recently I’ve bought a Nokia 6600 with Symbian Os 7.0 .
It works very well and has lot of nice features due to the operative system that supports multitasking and software installation .
To upload and download files on the mobile I use a bluetooth connection between Nokia 6600 and my computer using nfs [ p3nfs over rfcomm0 ] mount the phone memory .
First step :
Check in your .config for :
CONFIG_BT=y
CONFIG_BT_L2CAP=y
CONFIG_BT_RFCOMM=y
CONFIG_BT_RFCOMM_TTY=y
CONFIG_BT_HIDP=y
CONFIG_BT_HCIUSB=y
CONFIG_BT_HCIBCM203X=m
CONFIG_BT_HCIBPA10X=m
CONFIG_BT_HCIBFUSB=m
CONFIG_BT_HCIVHCI=m

Second step :
To bring up bluetoohth :
hciconfig hci0 up

To scan for devices :
hcitool scan

Third step :
Install p3nfs [ install also portmap if not yet installed ] :
emerge p3nfs [ for gentoo ]
apt-get install p3nfs [ for debian ]

Fourth step :
Upload /usr/share/doc/p3nfs-5.18/nfsapp-2.8-.sis on your mobile ( via email or mms or downloading it from internet ) and install it .

Fifth step :
Start portmap and p3nfsd
/etc/init.d/portmap start
/usr/bin/p3nfsd --dir /mnt/nokia -series60 --tty /dev/rfcomm0
Start nfsapp on your mobile ….
Now your Nokia 6600 is mounted in /mnt/nokia
