Phone Support FAQ

Is my phone supported?

Generally any phone capable of AT commands or IrMC should be supported. Also any Nokia phone using Nokia OS should work. For Symbian please check separate topic. You can check other user experiences in Gammu Phones Database.

For information how to configure your phone, see Configuring Gammu FAQ.

Which phone is best supported?

It really depends on what you expect. If you want to use SMSD, this topic is covered in separate FAQ (see Which phone is best for SMSD gateway?). For backing up your contacts or calendar, most of Nokia (S40 or S60) phones should work as well as any other capable of AT commands. Gammu also supports wide range of extensions for Samsung, Motorola, Siemens or Sony-Ericsson phones.
