Google unveiled the first Android-powered cell phone last week, a T-Mobile-branded device dubbed the G1. Comparisons to Apple's iPhone were immediate -- and that is a good thing for Android, when you consider what a raucous and contentious week it was for iPhone developers.
I'm trying to sync/transfer files from my UNIX box and Android Phone and vice versa.
I know that Android Phones show up seamlessly (mostly) in Linux given their incestuous relationship.
Is there a way to do it in UNIX or more specifically in Solaris 11.3 (i86)?:confused:
I haven't found one... (2 Replies)
Let's find out about users of Android. I'm becoming a big Android follower. You?
After a lot of research, I am thinking to by the Samsung Galaxy S as soon as it updates to Android 2.2.
I'm also closely following the release of the Samsung Galaxy Tab! (14 Replies)
BITPIM(1) General Commands Manual BITPIM(1)NAME
bitpim - utility to communicate with many CDMA phones
SYNOPSIS
bitpim [ -c file | -d dir ] [ -f model ] [ -p device ] [ bitfling ] [ debug ] [ cli-command ]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the bitpim command.
BitPim allows you to view and manipulate data on many phones from LG, Samsung, Sanyo, and other manufacturers that use Qualcomm CDMA chips.
Depending on your phone model, you may be able to access the phone book, the calendar, wallpapers, ring tones, and the filesystem.
OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below.
-c file
Read configuration from file.
-d dir Read configuration from dir/.bitpim.
-f model
Assume a phone type of model rather than what the configuration file specifies. Particularly useful in CLI mode.
-p device
Communicate with the phone via the device ("port") device.
bitfling
Run as bitfling(1).
debug Print debugging information to standard output and standard error.
cli-command
Interact with the phone's filesystem via a command-line interface. The command must be a single (quoted) argument, and can take any
of the following forms:
cli Bring up an interactive shell, allowing all of the below commands as well as a few others (cd dir, cdu, exit, and pwd or
equivalently cwd).
cp src [...] destdir
Copy files to, from, or within the phone.
ll dir [...]
Print a detailed listing of the specified phone directory or directories.
ls dir [...]
Print a brief listing of the specified phone directory or directories.
mkdir dir [...]
Create a directory on the phone.
rm file [...]
Remove one or more files from the phone.
rmdir dir [...]
Remove one or more directories, which must already be empty, from the phone.
Please note that none of these commands accepts wildcards. To indicate that an argument denotes a file or directory on the phone,
you can prefix it with phone:; this is mainly relevant for cp, which performs phone-to-PC copies unless otherwise directed.
FILES
$HOME/.bitpim-files/.bitpim
The default configuration file.
