Finally got my mobile (sony ericsson w880i) to sync with evolution (on gutsy, using bluetooth). As opensync/multisync0.90 still failed, I retried multisync and catched the described error ( "Failed to get first plugin changes: Unknown error"). The solution for me was:
Second Plugin / IrMC Mobile Device -> Options... -> Options ... -> Bug workarounds -> [x] Translate from character set utf-8
(There are still some errors with entries containing UTF-8 characters, but bi-directional synchronization works.)
