Re: problem trying write phonebook to PM325

Stephen,

Thanks for the tips! I am off and running with scissors again. I have seen the + notation in some of the other files but did not know what it was for. This is part of the whole reason I started on this project. I wanted to learn something new and I am definitely accomplishing that goal.

Brent

Brent:

When you write a packet, all the fields have to be to something, otherwise you get this error. You can set the fields in your code. This is presumably what you do for fields like pbentry.ringtone, etc. The other way to set a field is to put "+" in front of the field name in the packet definition. (eg "2 UNKNOWN +unknown1") This will fill in that field with the default. The default is usually zero unless you specify otherwise inside the braces.

Look at other .p files for examples and look at dev-doc/packetdescription.txt if you havn't already.

All,

I am currently working to implement the writing of the phonebook to the LG PM325 phone.

When I try to write data to the phone, I get an exception that states 'pbentry' object has no attribute '_pbentry__field_unknown1'. I am confused because I have declared that field in the p_lgpm325.p file and if I change the name of it in the pbentry packet, the error message changes accordingly.

Any ideas on what I am doing wrong? The full exception text is below.
