NAME

       gnokiid - create a virtual modem for old Nokia mobile phones

SYNOPSIS

       gnokiid

       gnokiid [--help|--version|--debug]

DESCRIPTION

       gnokiid

       is  a  tool  from the gnokii tool suite used to create a virtual modem device with a Nokia portable telephone.  The virtual modem device is
       usually accessed via a symbolic link called /dev/gnokii (created automatically by mgnokiidev(8)). Please note that you don't need a virtual
       modem  when  you have real modem accepting AT Hayes commands (most of the modern phones). gnokiid was written for the phones that supported
       data transfer but didn't expose AT layer (namely Nokia 6110, 6130, 6150, 5110, 5130).

       After gnokiid has created the virtual modem, it can be accessed like any other Hayes-compatible modem by such programs as the terminal pro-
       gram minicom(1) or the PPP daemon pppd(8) to make standard data connections to remote computers.

       The  full  range of portable telephone functions (SMS messaging, phone book, operator logos, etc.) are accessed using the command-line pro-
       gram gnokii(1) or the graphical interface program xgnokii(1x).

       gnokii is a Linux/Unix tool suite and (eventually) modem/fax driver for Nokia mobile phones, released under the GPL.

       gnokii supports most phones from the 3810/8110 and 5110/6110 series, details including bugs specific to each series  appear  in	the  files
       Docs/README-3810 and Docs/README-6110 respectively.

OPTIONS

       If called without any options, gnokiid will set up a virtual modem device using the settings in gnokii(1) config file (if it exists).  Oth-
       erwise,

       --help print out a short usage message

       --version
	      print out version, copyright, phone, and serial device info

       --debug
	      uses STDIN/STDOUT for a virtual modem

DIAGNOSTICS

       Various error messages are printed to STDERR.

BUGS
