    1. Connect your phone via data cable
    2. Then open terminal & type “lsusb” command then you get following output
    Output:
    owais@owais-desktop:~$ lsusb
    Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000
    Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0578:0665 Nokia Mobile Phones
    Bus 001 Device 002: ID 079e:038c Lg, Inc.
    Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000
    owais@owais-desktop:~$
    This is not exactly same with your computer it is on my computer.
    In output “Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0578:0665 Nokia Mobile Phones” this line will show you here 0578 is Vendor ID
    0665 is the Product ID
    Use following command
    sudo /sbin/modprobe usbserial vendor=0x(vid) product=0x(pid)

    eg, in my case::: sudo /sbin/modprobe usbserial vendor=0×578 product=0×665
    then use following command
    wvdialconf create (it will display long output)
    then this command start scanning serial ports for a modem.

    Re: Problem in Connecting Nokia phone to Ubuntu

    Step 1 - Install required software
    open Synaptic Package Manager use following steps
    System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager
    Then search for obex.

    Then installed following packages:
    - obexftp
    - openobex-apps
    After the installation of above package there are some other packages also depend on these then installed all these application.
    For using this packages you have to installed graphical user interface . it will easy to use for the installation you have to use Gammu 1.27 MB package.
    After the downloading extract it in your home directory.

    Step 2 - Advanced Configurations
    For that you have to connect your phone to the PC using the USB cable.
    Then Open a terminal for that use Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal and type:
    CODE
    lsusb

    after that you will see following output
    CODE
    Bus 003 Device 003: ID 0421:043a Nokia Mobile Phones
    This line shows the VendorID and ProductID of the phone, for my Nokia N70:
    VendorID = 0421
    ProductID = 043a

    then type following line in the Terminal:
    CODE
    sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/040-permissions.rules

    then you will see one text editor in that you have to add the next line to the end of the text file:
    CODE
    BUS=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="VendorID", SYSFS{idProduct}=="ProductID", GROUP="plugdev", USER="yourUserNname"

    Replace VendorID and ProductID with the numbers from the lsusb result and yourUserNname with your username.

    Example:
    CODE
    BUS=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0421", SYSFS{idProduct}=="043a", GROUP="maxi", USER="maria"

    save then changes then close it, This trick will give you rights to access and use the USB port where the mobile device is connected.

    Step 3 - Final step
    Right click on your desktop and select the 'Create Launcher'
    Here you abele to see the icon pack select the icon , fill up the Name field with the desired name for the launcher, and then open command prompt and type following code
    java -jar /home/YOURUSERNAME/obexftp-frontend-0.6.1-bin/OBEXFTPFrontend.jar

    Replace YOURUSERNAME with your username.
    After these all the process double click the launcher you've just created and the ObexFTP Front-end will pop-up asking you to configure it. Follow the next steps:



    1. Then Enter /usr/bin/obexftp in the ObexFTP path field.
    2. Select USB on the Transport option and set the Value filed to 1.
    After that the configuration opens D: drive and here you able to see your mobile will connected your computer. Now you ready to data transfer

    Re: Problem in Connecting Nokia phone to Ubuntu

    Hi ct.muthumani,

    You can connect your nokia 7210 mobile phone in linux by following the below commands:

    First Connect your phone via the datacable
    open terminal & type

    lsusb

    now u will get the following output

    owais@owais-desktop:~$ lsusb
    Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
    Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0421:0445 Nokia Mobile Phones
    Bus 001 Device 002: ID 046d:092f Logitech, Inc.
    Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
    owais@owais-desktop:~$

    it is on my compter,ur will not be exactly the same…

    Now note the line in which NOkia Mobile Phones is written…it has two number one is 0421 & other is 0445…we’ll take these numbers as 0×421 & 0×445

    0421 is the Vendor ID & 0445 is the Product ID

    Now enter this comand.

    sudo /sbin/modprobe usbserial vendor=0x(vid) product=0x(pid)

    eg, in my case::: sudo /sbin/modprobe usbserial vendor=0×421 product=0×445

    Now enter this command

    wvdialconf create
    u’ll get a long output which will be like
