In order for your phone to work with Microsoft Phone Data Manager (beta), the phone needs to support some common standards. For contacts synchronization, your phone needs to support the SyncML standard, and for file download it needs to support OBEX. In some select phones that do not support SyncML, we are able to utilize the AT command set to provide a limited contact sync functionality. And of course, your phone should have either Bluetooth or USB connectivity. In general most of the newer models that have Bluetooth tend to have support for the above standards, over both connection modes (USB and Bluetooth) and hence can work with the application.
We try to test the application with as many phones as possible, but given the number of phones available today, it is not possible for us to test with every phone. Microsoft Phone Data Manager (beta) has currently been tested against a set of about 150 phones, and we are constantly testing with newer phones.
The list of phones that we have tested and know to work with Microsoft Phone Data Manager (beta) is given below. We have also provided a list of phones that we know will not work with Microsoft Phone Data Manager (beta). If your phone model is not in either list, it does not mean that your phone will not work. Chances are that if it is a recent model, it will work; we encourage you to try anyway.
