Problems synchronising Ovi

http://www.ovi.com/services/contacts

Available contact fields on Ovi

Field	General	Home	Work
Mobile	1	1	1
Telephone	1	1	1
Fax	0	0	1
Pager	0	0	1
Address		1	1
Email	1	1	1
Website	1	1	1

Problems

1. There is no 2nd work/home telephone fields.
   
2. Cannot handle Thai message: job title, note.  Thai characters are kept in Ovi.  But they becomes "???" in Outlook when synchronised (through PC Suite 7.1.26).
3. Note's text can be truncated to only first line.
4. 'Work mobile' in Ovi can become 'Car telephone' in Outlook.
   

So, by this time, do NOT synchronise Ovi back to phone yet.  Keeping for data backup would be OK.

Customisation
Standby display

Item	From	To	Remark
Left selection	Menu	Notes	Menu already has dedicated button.
Right selection	Contacts	Voice recorder	Contacts is not really needed, Menu-2 is sufficient.
Shortcut 1	Clock	Calculator	Old unit's command was Menu-4 but this one is deeper: Menu-#(Applications)-2(Clock).  However, new clock can have several alarms so that it needn't be set daily.
Shortcut 2	Profiles	Active notes	Profile selection is available when press Off button.
Shortcut 3	Camera	Gallery	Camera: just press-hold shutter button already handy. Gallery: Now it is deeper than Menu-5 and there's no media button in this model.  Also, it is preferred than just Music player only.
Shortcut 4	Maps	QuickOffice	Map button already exists.  Quickoffice now can substitute File Manager.
Shortcut 5	Messaging	Bluetooth	Messaging: Being in 1st-level menu is sufficient.
Shortcut 6	Music player	Connection manager	Connection manager is necessary to review and sometime to force disconnecting.  Its original location is deep.

Other candidates for shortcut keys

• File manager: try using Quickoffice instead.
  
• Dictionary, Converter: not use much so far.
• Internet -- Opera or Google: too risky to online-connecting by accident.

My Gmail SuperStars

1. yellow-star:  Normal, default -- it is Gmail native flag.
2. green-check:  What has been done, replied, responded. Normally when a topic is routine, scheduled, or followed up.
• Another implication is to indicate mail which I expect for replying, and when it comes back then it's my turn to review: i.e., this icon indicates "what I'm waiting for" -- mail that needs reviewing (and may even expect my next action!).
3. blue-info:  Specific information -- require some further attention/action.
4. purple-question:  Need further discussion, finding-out.
5. orange-guillemet:  To delegate/assign to someone else.
6. red-bang: ATTENTION, IMPORTANT

Associated implication (normally in multiple inboxes or quick links)

• 'Reports & info' =  l:.report OR has:green-check OR has:blue-info
  
• 'Reports? (inbox)' = in:inbox subject:(report OR status) OR has:green-check
• ...
  

Others that I don't use

• Other stars (red, orange, green, blue, purple): Let be simple, one star is enough. These colours are also redundant with others.
• yellow-bang: default star is already yellow.
