Set up your phone

Instructions

  • Go to: https://one.ubuntu.com/phones/ (if the link is down, check our twitter status)

  • Select your phone model. If the model isn't listed, but you know it works, then proceed. We will give you a username and password to authenticate your phone with your Ubuntu One account.

    • iPhone and Android phones can download the app directly from their respective app stores (web links for Android available at Cyrket, AppBrain, Google project site).

  • Don't configure calender/notes sync or anything else that isn't contacts, no matter what the instructions tell you to do

  • If your phone doesn't support syncml, download the client from here: https://www.forge.funambol.org/download/

  • The host is: http://syncml.one.ubuntu.com

  • DB name: card

Model gotchas

  • iPhones, download the Ubuntu One app from the Apple app store
