sorry for the delayed post

i just did a new setup
i'll try to replicate the steps and see if it works this time

actually there were nothing special
i tried opensync this time

just did a fresh setup
did a system update
installed multisync(apt-get)
installed opensync(from website)
inst......... j2mesync(deb file from ohli's site)
did confguration
started j2mesync on phone
and ran 'msyctool --sync mygroup'

and it was working
i'll do it again and post more details.

try the next post

Here are the steps to make j2mesync work and sync with evolution
Some of the steps may not be necessary but thats how i did it
I did this on a fresh install of Ubuntu Fiesty 7.04 but it may work for other linuxes as well
After fresh install i did a system udate through the update manager
Restart system
install multisync from Add/Remove
install libopensync0,libopensync0-dev,multisync-tools,opensync-plugin-evolution,opensync-plugin-irmc,opensyncutils from synaptic package manager
through Synaptic install
build-essential,autoconf,automake,libxml1,libxml-dev,bluetooth,bluez-gnome,gnome-bluetooth,lib-bluetooth2,lib-bluetooth2-dev,libtool,libxml++1.0-dev,libxml++2.6-dev
download j2mesync source for opensync from ohli's site
extract and from the terminal go to the extracted directory
type ./autogen.sh
then make
then sudo make install

type msynctool --listplugins
if you see availible plugins as
evo2-sync
irmc-sync
j2mesync-plugin
then its all ok till now

type msynctool --addgroup Ming
msynctool --addmember Ming j2mesync-plugin
msynctool --addmember Ming evo2-sync
msynctool --configure Ming 1

on the screen insert the btmac 00:11:22:33:44:55 and bt channel as 7
your bt mac can be seen in the bluetooth menu -->properties of your phone
<config><btmac>00:11:22:33:44:55</btmac><btchannel>7</btchannel></config>
press cntrl^X
press Y to save

start evolution mail and setup your default account
exit evolution mail

start j2mesync on phone
type msynctool --sync Ming

if you get an error here download and install multisync-gui from opensync website http://www.opensync.org/wiki/download
start multisync-gui
delete the created groups
create new group Ming (or whatever name you like)
click edit>addmember>evolution and j2mesync
click on j2mesync and add btmac and btchannel
start j2mesync on phone
open terminal and type msynctool --sync Ming
you should be able to sync now
the screen now will fill up with messages
when you get the message
Which entry do you want to use? [1-9] To select a side, [D]uplicate, Keep [N]ewer:
type 1
afterthe process is over open evolution and check in contacts if sync was sucessful
if not then try again
post your results
thanks to bagus in helping in the compilation problems i had faced before
thanks to ohli for this great application

[bagus]

Thanks wollybyte for the howto

Just find out, using deb file from ohli site work too on Ubuntu 7.04
(http://www.ohli.de/download/j2mesync...n-1-1_i386.deb)

I'm using j2mesync and file-sync plugin. I can sync with command line but with multisync-gui only event is synced.

[wollybyte]

using deb file from ohli site work too

yes thats what i used for the first time , it was working , but after a fresh install , the plugin did not show with --listplugins , the source worked properly at the first attempt.

j2mesync and file-sync plugin. I can sync with command line but ...

do you have evolution-sync plugin installed ?

[bagus]

Nope, I don't use evolution. I prefer a file for backup my contacts.
