Anyone working on Fusic (LG LX550)? Seeking help

Hi There,

I just got this slick piece from Sprint and came aross this BitPim software.
I found this program was awesome but sadly it doesn't support my phone.

The generic brew file system interface worked fine, but access to the
nvm directory was blocked by the provider.
I'm wondering if this directory is important?  I understand bitpim
uses it to read the unique ESN, but are there other significant files
under that directory? Does the blocking of the directory mean there's
no hope in supporting this model?

I tried to make sense out of the file system structures. Some looked
easy, while others are harder to figure out.

I'm working on modifying the LG LX5550 module, which is in turn
derived from the LG VX4400 module.
Since the nvm directory,  I had to comment out the line that reads ESN
from the getfundamentals function defined in com_lgvx4400.py. Then I
hit an out of boundary access when the module read the phone book. I
eyeballed the pbook_group.dat file and feel this is a pretty simple
structure. But it's hard for me to modify the python code since I'm
totally new to  python. And I expect more problems along the road.

Since I don't have any previous experience with BitPim, I'd be happy
to work with someone who is more experienced and interested in working
on LX550. It's really hard for me to understand every bit of the code
without having a supported phone to get started.

Please let me know if you're interested in supporting this model, thanks a lot!

By the way, how do I debug the code on Windows?  On linux I was able
to give a '-m pdb' option to python, but on Windows it seems I can't.

Thanks,
Wei
