indeed, the port code is the bluetooth MAC - you can either run

hcitool scan

from the command line which will give you the MAC address, or you can get it if your 770 is paired, it also shows up in one of the configuration screens.

I didn't manage yet to go onto the internet, but I suppose that should be much easier.
I read around here that one must follow the manual (page 26?) to the letter, it's not so straightforward it seems....

Anyway, after adding the MAC into the .gnokiirc nothing else stands in the way.
NO PAIRING NEEDED before starting phoneLink!
Just try to dial a number, and if required your phone will mention the connection and ask to enter a 4 digit code - then the 770 will ask you to enter the same code.
You can enter any code you like! Just use the same code on both devices.
After that, the v360 should just dial the number. Oh, and it will retain the 770 bluetooth MAC and allow future access, so you can directly write sms messages on the 770 and have the phone send them, no further buttonpresses required - just leave the phone in your pocket.

Hope this helps!

What would be really nice is a plugin architecture that would allow to plug any contact management system at the heart of the 770 ...

1) download gnokii from http://trifinite.org/Downloads/gnokii-0.6.9-maemo.tgz
2) expand the downloaded file, and you should have three files:
gnokii
gnokiirc
libgnokii.so.2.0.5
3) Copy the three files in step 2 to the 770 and open up a console window
4) become root, run "sudo gainroot" (must be in R&D mode)
5) Per fredoll's post copy gnokii to /var/lib/install/usr/bin
6) Per fredoll's post copy libgnokii.so.2.0.5 to /var/lib/install/usr/lib
7) Also copy libgnokii.so.2.0.5 to /usr/lib
8) Run /sbin/ldconfig (this will prevent gnokii complaining about missing shared objects)
9) Modify the gnokiirc file as follows:
port = xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (this is the MAC for your phone, find it using "hcitool scan")
model = AT
initlength = default
connection = bluetooth
use_locking = yes
serial_baudrate = 19200
rfcomm_channel = 1
smsc_timeout = 10
10) Copy gnokiirc to your home directory "~/"
11) Rename gnokiirc to ".gnokiirc" (note the leading period)

To test gnokii run:
"/var/lib/install/usr/bin/gnokii --identify"

you should see information about your phone if everything is working.
