I own a Nokia 6124 Classic since a few months. It's the entry model employees get from my employer. Since I work on mac, I could not sync the contacts because there is no free Isync plugin available yet. Recently, Google Sync was announced. It worked very good to sync my contactc on my Iphone with my Google contacts. I use Google Contact as my main database. Hence, I begun to wonder if I could sync my Nokia using Google Sync. Based upon the instructions from Google for another type of Nokia phone, I was able to derive a working setup. Here are the instructions:
- From the main menu, go to the "Settings" folder and select "Connectivity".
- From the Sync screen, select "Options"->"New sync profile" and enter the following:
- Sync profile name: Google Sync
- Select "Applications" then "Contacts"
- Include in sync: Yes
- Remote database: contacts
- Synchronisation type: Both Ways
- Select "Back" then "Back" then "Connection settings"
- Server version: 1.2
- Server ID: Google
- Data bearer: Internet
- Access point: Always ask
- Host address: https://m.google.com/syncml
- Port: 80
- Username: username@gmail.com (fill in your own username)
- Password: the password of your Google Account
- Allow sync requests: Yes
- Accept all sync requests: No
- Network authentication: No
- Select "Back", "Back" and then "Exit" to save the settings
- You have now finished the setup
- From the main Settings menu, select "Connectivity".
- From the Connectivity menu, select "Sync"'
- Highlight your Google Sync Profile.
- Select "Options" and click "Synchronise".
- Select your access point: Px Live (depends on your configuration)
- That's it. Your 6124 Classic will now connect and sync its phonebook with your Google Contacts. The contacts on your phone will appear in your google contacts and all your Google contact are stored into your phone. If you don't want this, change the value for the synchronization type set in step 7 of the setup
