Suyog, thanks for your exploration!
Ovi now adds manual configuration which as you have pointed out in the previous
thread. With this information I have done a successful sync with
ovi via syncevolution (Contact only, but really worked nicely).

See my comments below:

The only issue I found was the certificate is not trusted, you can ignore this
error in the configuration file (not sure if there is an option in the gui), 
see my
config:

syncURL = https://sync.ovi.com/services/syncml
username = congwu
password = - 
loglevel = 6
clientAuthType = md5
deviceId = sc-api-nat

SSLVerifyServer = 0
SSLVerifyHost = 0

In $HOME/.config/syncevolution/ovi/config.ini: you can set the log level,
loglevel > 5 if you want more detailed information. 
The log is located at: $HOME/.cache/syncevolution/
