Hi All,

I'm new to BitPim, and so far I've got BitPim 1.0.7 detecting my phone just
fine on the COM6 port. I'm trying to transfer pictures from my phone to my
computer, so I click the 'Get Phone Data' button, check only the
'Wallpapers' check box, and click 'OK'. However, I get the exception pasted
below after doing this.

I've searched the mailing list several times, and I've learned that the
exception is related to a non-ASCII character that BitPim doesn't recognize
(in my case, it's a contact group listed as 'Believers\x86h(' ). Other
people seem to have solved the problem simply by renaming the contact group;
however, I've tried the following steps, but I get the exact same error
every time with the string 'Believers\x86h(' :

1) Renamed the contact group 'Believers' to something simple like 'A'
2) Deleted the contact group 'Believers'
3) Deleted all contact groups
4) Deleted all contacts in phone (transferred them to another phone
beforehand)
5) Deleted call history
6) Uninstalled and reinstalled program several times
7) Deleted 'My Documents/bitpim' folder in-between installs


Is this a cache issue, or am I missing something in my steps to resolve this
issue? Any redirection to other helpful threads is welcome, and I sure
appreciate the time spent resolving my issue and also the time spent
developing this awesome program. :)
