Possible to Edit Contact's List on OBI1032?

(1/2) > >>

Dan-Voip:
Looking at page 51 of the OBi1000-IP-Phones-User-Guide (http://www.obihai.com/docs/OBi1000-IP-Phones-User-Guide.pdf) it lists options to:

1) Import Contacts from a CSV file on a USB stick inserted into the OBi
2) Export the Phone Book to a CSV file on an attached USB drive

However when I select the "More" option on my phone running the latest V5-0-0-1905  firmware (http://www.obitalk.com/forum/index.php?topic=9.0) the options are:

1) Import - that reports "No connected Bluetooh devices!" when selected
2) The "Export" option doesn't even appear

Opening a ticket with OBI support I received an email telling me to "Please refer to the admin guide" with a link to the users guide.  Where is this admin guide?

What am I missing beyond the options shown in the users guide?

What type of mods are you trying make?
Maybe you can accomplish what you want with a configuration change, like adding area code to a 7 digit number or routing certain numbers differently.

azrobert,

I'm not really trying to modify anything.  Simply want to import a list of names and numbers of people I frequently call so I can dial by name.  The same thing most people do with a cell phone  :)

It is possible to save the number of an incoming caller in the contacts list.  However many of those callers don't provide a name and there appears to be no way to edit the list (ie: add a name) contrary to what the user manual states.

The "import a contact list via a file" function is currently in test, and should be in the next public firmware release.

Meanwhile, you can import a contact list from a mobile phone via Bluetooth, if you have the OBiBT dongle for your phone.
