All of those fields are automatically supplied for you in the OBEX API, except the target header.

In Bluetooth Profiles v1.1 spec (pg 328), the text says:

The example value for the Target header can be ‘IRMC-SYNC’  to indicate the IrMC synchronization service.

I just looked at Jonas Salling’s Mobile Sync application, it looks like that is what he sends as well, to connect to the sync service on the Z600 phone. So try  “
IRMC-SYNC” and see what you get back. In your connection response packet, you should get back the same target ID you sent, as confirmation of connecting to the service.

You do not need to worry about this – it is handled for you.

The spec can be a maze, indeed.
