Not sure what capabilities should work to the phone. Does filesystem access
not work with Sanyo phones?

Picked up the change.

   1. Detect phone still picks the modem instead of serial port.
   2. Phone info comes back with "Phone info not available"
   3. Phonebook download seemed to work as well as upload. Entries show
   up sorted as well. I looked at your changes, just looked like the phone id
   and # of entries was big change. Was there something more I didn't notice?
   4. Media: shows information that sounds reasonable able how much
   memory is being used.
   5. Media/mms: shows nothing
   6. Media/camera: displayed an exception. My whole display went nuts,
   blanked out display. Thought I'd have to power off, but eventually it
   stopped although the screen is still messed up. I can't recreate. Maybe
   something is still running.
   7. Media/images: shows nothing
   8. Media/sounds: shows nothing
   9. Media/ringers. Displays the following
      1. hiphop.bin mp3. On this phone there are things called
      "themes" named hiphop and tropical. I assume the files listed
here are not
      ringers but these themes.
      2. screen saver preview.pmd
      3. tropical.bin
      4. video ringer preview-simple plan.bin. I remember seeing this
      as a demo on the phone but can't figure out how to get to it.
There is a way
      to assign a video as a ringer (stupid idea if you ask me).
   10. Calendar:
   1. Downloading calendar from the phone seemed to work
      2. Uploading: seemed to work
   11. Wallpaper: downloading wallpaper showed up in Media/Camera. Was
   able to download photos.
   12. Wallpaper: upload. I added a picture to Media/Camera. Tried to
   upload, said busy for a second, didn't show up in the phone. Added to
   Media/Images, tried to upload, looks like it was trying read from the phone.
   If it uploads its brief. Can't find the picture on the phone. I thought I
   had done this successfully before. Hmm.
   13. Call history: download. Sorta worked, but the data is sometimes
   garbled. As an example, an entry has a date of 1985-06-07, looks like the
   first character of the phone number was lost, ie first digit of area code.
   First character of Name is also dropped. But only on some entries. Duration
   always shows 0. When selecting "Call history" shows summary of calls. All
   durations are 0.
   14. SMS download. Seemed to work. Sprint charges per msg, but worth
   the test.
   15. Todo download. Seemed to work.

Is there a way to upload mp3s to the phone?
