| '''Kontact Mobile''' is the name for the project of porting the Kontact PIM suit to work on mobile plattforms.
| | #REDIRECT [[Kontact_Touch]] |
| | |
| There are two plattform we aim at first:
| |
| * Maemo (on the N900)
| |
| * Win CE 6.5 (on the HTC Touch Pro 2)
| |
| | |
| ''The project is under heavy development at the moment - but we encourage people to test and feedback upon it.''
| |
| | |
| | |
| == Installation and Update==
| |
| '''At the moment there is only an installable version for the N900 available'''
| |
| | |
| | |
| === On the N900 ===
| |
| ==== Installation ====
| |
| | |
| We offer a [http://files.kolab.org/local/maemo/install/kdepim-unstable.install one click installation file for N900 users]. Simply click that link on your N900 browser and directly install Kontact mobile on your device (be sure you have good and affordable internet access when doing so).
| |
| | |
| You can find detailed, up-to-date instruction on how to install the current state on the N900 in this README:
| |
| | |
| http://files.kolab.org/local/maemo/README.html
| |
| | |
| For testing purposes you should always use the UNSTABLE section. Do not use the other sections. We try to update the unstable section about once a week.
| |
| | |
| ==== Update ====
| |
| | |
| At the moment the update does not work via the N900 programm manager. You will need to update on the command line.
| |
| | |
| in order to do so, make sure to have the package "rootsh" installed, to be able to become root on the konsole. Then simply open the "X Terminal" and enter the following to do the update
| |
| | |
| :::{|style="width:500px; border:2px dotted #BCBCBC; background:#EEEEEE;"

| |
| |> apt-get upgrade
| |

| |
| === Other devices ===
| |
| Are at the moment not supported. Please wait for more information. HTC Touch Pro 2 is the next device we want to get Kontact Mobile to work on.
| |
| | |
| == Getting started ==
| |
| After installation you will find 5 new applications on your phone:
| |
| KDE Mail, KDE Calendar, KDE Addressbook, KDE Notes, KDE Tasks.
| |
| | |
| '''First thing''' you would want to do is to set-up a new email account. To do this you start KDE Mail, pull the flap "Actions" on the Homepage out, press "Add Account" and then follow the instructions.
| |
| | |
| ''Note:'' you cannot do this from all applications at the moment - but for email this works fine. If you should have a Kolab Server, all other applications will access the data from your server too.
| |
| | |
| == Using it: Ideas and Concepts ==
| |
| | |
| '''Navigate''' through your folders by our flattend tree view. You can also choose to see multiple folders at once, when you click on "Select" on the homepage.
| |
| | |
| '''Actions''' can be accessed through what we call flaps. You have to pull them out, in order to not mix interaction up with
| |
| | |
| We hope the other ideas are straight forward and discoverable, so we do not want to give you more hints... Give us feedback if you think we are wrong with this assumption.
| |
| | |
| == Contributing / Questions and Answers / Feedback / ... ==
| |
| | |
| There are many ways to contribute or feedback to this project:
| |
| | |
| === You discovered a bug ===
| |
| | |
| Please report any bugs to [bugs.kde.org]. Note that we have created own categories for the mobile products, so please make use of that. For every bug you report, we need to know 2 things:
| |
| | |
| * What section from the apt repository do you use? (unstable, experimental or snapshots)
| |
| * What day did you last update your applications?
| |
| | |
| Consider doing an update before reporting a bug. The project is under heavy development and the chances are good, the bugs has already been fixed.
| |
| | |
| The overall stability of the packages is good. We do not expect any data loss or severe problems, as we share much of the codebase from the desktop client. But still: This product is under development, so expect to experience any kind of bugs.
