Code is in master branch. Tobias, if you don't want to wait, then copy the 00_sony_ericsson.xml file as described below and add the lines. commit 6ce041fba81ba61de7ab97822dc6c5ea76f17fae Author: Patrick Ohly <[email protected]> Date: Wed Aug 10 13:01:47 2011 +0200 Sony Ericsson: use ISO-8859-1 for all devices (BMC #14414) Sony Ericsson seems to use ISO-8859-1 for all their phones. This causes two problems: - mangled characters and/or - crashes inside libecal/gdbus It is uncertain whether all devices have this problem. A poll did not yield any results (http://syncevolution.org/blogs/pohly/2011/question-sony-ericsson-users-charset). So let's change it for those who have reported problems. To revert the change, copy /usr/share/syncevolution/xml/remoterules/server/00_sony_ericsson.xml into $HOME/.config/syncevolution-xml/remoterules/server (after creating that directory) and remove the lines with ISO-8859-1. This was originally reported for contacts, and now also for calendar data. The calendar case was seen as a crash of the syncevo-dbus-server: GLib-CRITICAL **: g_variant_new_string: assertion `g_utf8_validate (string, -1, NULL)' failed Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. g_variant_is_trusted (value=0x0) at /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.28.6/./glib/gvariant-core.c:600 in /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.28.6/./glib/gvariant-core.c Thread 1 (Thread 0xb7fce850 (LWP 3402)): at /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.28.6/./glib/gvariant-core.c:600 at /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.28.6/./glib/gvariant.c:3081 at /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.28.6/./glib/gvariant.c:4093 app=0xbfffca4c) at /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.28.6/./glib/gvariant.c:4248 at /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.28.6/./glib/gvariant.c:4188 in_calobj=0x8435fe8 "BEGIN:VEVENT\r\nSUMMARY:THW Sim Pr\374fung\r\nDTSTART:20070420T230000Z\r\nDTEND:2007042 diff --git a/src/syncevo/configs/remoterules/server/00_sony_ericsson.xml b/src/syncevo/configs/remoterules/server/00_ index 028fb32..1f5f4ac 100644 --- a/src/syncevo/configs/remoterules/server/00_sony_ericsson.xml +++ b/src/syncevo/configs/remoterules/server/00_sony_ericsson.xml @@ -4,6 +4,9 @@ specific models later on --> <manufacturer>SonyEricsson</manufacturer> <finalrule>no</finalrule> + <outputcharset>ISO-8859-1</outputcharset> + <inputcharset>ISO-8859-1</inputcharset> + <!-- At least the Sony Ericsson T700 is only able to deal with alarm times in UTC, but rejects relative times.
