Nokia 6085

The Nokia 6085 is a Series 40 handset which isnt supported out of the box for iSync. I found a simple bit of code will make it iSync.

(this worked with my Mac OSX 10.4.11)

Go to Applications/iSync, control click to ‘Show Folder Contents’ and follow this path:

Contents -> PlugIns -> ApplePhoneConduit.syncdevice -> Contents -> PlugIns -> PhoneModelsSync.phoneplugin -> Contents -> Resources.->metaclasses.plist

open the file in TextEdit andsearch for 6021 (Nokia 6021)

after the </dict > enter the following code:

<key>com.nokia.6085</key>
<dict>
<key>Identification</key>
<dict>
<key>com.apple.cgmi+cgmm</key>
<string>Nokia+Nokia 6085</string>
<key>com.apple.gmi+gmm</key>
<string>Nokia+Nokia 6085</string>
<key>com.apple.usb.vendorid-modelid</key>
<string>0×0421/0x045A</string>
</dict>
<key>InheritsFrom</key>
<array>

</array>
<key>Services</key>

<dict>
<key>ServiceName</key>
<string>com.apple.model</string>
<key>ServiceProperties</key>
<dict>
<key>ModelIcon</key>
<string>NOK6085.tiff</string>
<key>ModelName</key>
<string>6085</string>
</dict>
</dict>
<dict>
<key>ServiceName</key>
<string>com.apple.synchro</string>
<key>ServiceProperties</key>
<dict>
<key>MaxCityLength</key>
<integer>50</integer>
<key>MaxEMailLength</key>
<integer>60</integer>
<key>MaxEventLocationLength</key>
<integer>150</integer>
<key>MaxPhoneNumberLength</key>
<integer>48</integer>
<key>MaxPostalCodeLength</key>
<integer>50</integer>
<key>MaxStateLength</key>
<integer>50</integer>
<key>MaxStreetLength</key>
<integer>50</integer>
<key>MaxURLLength</key>
<integer>60</integer>
</dict>
</dict>
</array>
</dict>

Now using bluetooth, add your device to iSync easily. (in the same folder as metaclasses.plist, select any .tiff image, duplicate it and rename it as NOK6085.tiff  or create your own)

<dict>
<key>com.apple.cgmi+cgmm</key>
<string>Nokia+Nokia 5320</string>
<key>com.apple.gmi+gmm</key>
<string>Nokia+Nokia 5320</string>
</dict>
<key>InheritsFrom</key>
<array>
<string>family.com.nokia.serie60v2.3</string>

<string>NOK5320.tiff</string>

And paste it in metaclasses.plist here

tnkgrl has released an iSync plugin for the Nokia 5800 Xpress Music series. Let us know if it works for you. 

There’s no sign yet of an iSync plugin from Nokia for the 5800 XpressMusic, so I put my developer hat on and made one. Simply download, unzip and copy to the /Library/PhonePlugins folder! After pairing your 5800, run iSync, and select Devices|Add Device…
